00:00:00I never thought my ex-fiancé would be my boss, and now I have to report to him directly.
00:00:30Hello? Daniel? Daniel, are you out?
00:00:45Hey, Emily! Come up here, I need your help!
00:00:49Daniel!
00:01:00Uh, I'm sorry, I should...
00:01:05Wait!
00:01:07Uh, Daniel, please, cover yourself!
00:01:12What, are you embarrassed? There's nothing you haven't seen before?
00:01:15If you're all set, then, um, I should, I should go.
00:01:20Stop.
00:01:24You do know you're here to be my assistant, right?
00:01:28Well, if there's anything work-related, just let me know.
00:01:35Here, take the coat.
00:01:38We're by the door.
00:01:40We're going to go meet some friends at a bar.
00:01:43I'm not gonna be Daniel Oster's assistant!
00:01:47Have you forgotten so easily?
00:01:53Just imagine the look on that loser ex's face of yours when he receives the massive debt collection notices.
00:01:58And not to mention the quartz hunters.
00:02:00Daniel!
00:02:01Hey, Daniel!
00:02:02Come on, you're late.
00:02:03Hey, beauty!
00:02:04Um, do I have the order of your drink, please?
00:02:06Actually, uh, she's not really that much of a drinker.
00:02:21Daniel!
00:02:22You know there's a penalty for being late.
00:02:23Huh?
00:02:24Pick a female in the room, and try to kiss her.
00:02:27Your choice.
00:02:28Kiss her!
00:02:29Kiss her!
00:02:30Kiss her!
00:02:31Kiss her!
00:02:32Sorry, they can be kind of relentless.
00:02:45Might as well get it alive.
00:02:47I'll drink for punishment.
00:02:57What are you doing?
00:03:02You know, if you can't handle it, maybe you shouldn't drink.
00:03:11Is kissing me really that difficult?
00:03:14It's just a game.
00:03:18Just a game?
00:03:19I can't treat it that way.
00:03:20I've always loved you, Daniel.
00:03:22Don't joke like that.
00:03:24I won't betray my husband.
00:03:27Your husband.
00:03:28I guess I should just wish you guys a lifetime of happiness, huh?
00:03:32I should go.
00:03:36How could you be so heartless?
00:03:38Are you all ready?
00:03:44God, you've always been such a lightweight.
00:03:46You really need to take better care of yourself.
00:03:49Come on.
00:03:50I'll take you home.
00:03:51I'll go get you something for the hangover.
00:04:00I'll go get you something for the hangover.
00:04:02James.
00:04:19That collaboration you were talking to me about.
00:04:22Why don't you come over so we can discuss it further?
00:04:25I brought you this.
00:04:26Are you even drunk?
00:04:27Yeah.
00:04:28I'm drunk.
00:04:29I'm love.
00:04:30And you're the only cure I need.
00:04:31We shouldn't be doing this.
00:04:32We shouldn't be doing this.
00:04:34My eyes are here.
00:04:35My eyes are here.
00:04:36I can hit me with this.
00:04:37I can hit me with this.
00:04:38A-G-Y.
00:04:39I can hit me with the A-G-Y.
00:04:40Hey, come here.
00:04:41No, I'm not bad.
00:04:42I can hit me with this.
00:04:44I'm not bad.
00:04:45I'm me.
00:04:46I'm not bad.
00:04:47No, I'm not bad.
00:04:48But I'm not bad.
00:04:50He is bad.
00:04:51No.
00:04:52It's bad.
00:04:53I'm not bad.
00:04:54We shouldn't be doing this.
00:05:01My eyes are here.
00:05:07Daniel, you up here?
00:05:13Daniel, you up here?
00:05:17James, what is he doing here?
00:05:24What's wrong? You look rattled.
00:05:27Are you worried about how you're gonna explain this to your husband?
00:05:30I need to go.
00:05:32If James catches us, it's over.
00:05:35Keep him around.
00:05:37Take him to the curb.
00:05:39You know I can give you whatever you want better than he ever could.
00:05:51Daniel, I'm coming!
00:05:55Oh, sorry. Keep going.
00:06:01What do you want?
00:06:05I want to feel your heart raise.
00:06:07Only for me.
00:06:14Daniel, please.
00:06:19What am I doing?
00:06:21What kind of guy would invite me over while he's... the woman?
00:06:35Why are you here?
00:06:41Why are you here?
00:06:45Wait.
00:06:46You're not thinking of...
00:06:47Please don't tell me you ran out to avoid seeing Daniel with someone else.
00:06:50You need to take this seriously.
00:06:52Keeping Daniel happy is our top priority.
00:07:02Yes, James.
00:07:04Sorry about earlier.
00:07:05Listen, I need you to set up a candlelit dinner as a surprise for my girl.
00:07:10Everything is set, Mr. Alster.
00:07:26Your sweetheart is going to be so touched by all of this.
00:07:28Can I ask which lovely lady you're waiting for?
00:07:35It's over between us!
00:07:38Look, he gave me a ring!
00:07:40Give me a ring!
00:07:44You'll know when she arrives.
00:07:46I'll, uh, go check on the food.
00:08:07Looks like he really cares about this date.
00:08:19You're just gonna stand there?
00:08:21Here's the file you needed.
00:08:24See you tomorrow.
00:08:28What are you doing?
00:08:30What's wrong?
00:08:33Are you jealous?
00:08:34Jealous it might be.
00:08:36Of course not.
00:08:37Why would I be jealous?
00:08:39I hope you have a great date.
00:08:44We can't do this.
00:08:46Why not?
00:09:00You'll regret this, Emily.
00:09:10Emily!
00:09:12I swear, you will regret this!
00:09:15Emily!
00:09:18I'm married.
00:09:19And you have a date.
00:09:21So what?
00:09:22So we should only have a boss-employee relationship.
00:09:25Please, just don't toy with me like this anymore.
00:09:28I didn't start that kiss.
00:09:31I need to control my feelings for Daniel.
00:09:34Otherwise, it'll only make things more complicated.
00:09:37It was just a slip-up.
00:09:39Daniel, we're done.
00:09:42Emily, if you could choose again,
00:09:45would you pick James or me?
00:09:49The treatment alone without proper insurance can cost over a million dollars.
00:09:53The surgery is critical for Daniel's survivor.
00:09:58James, please, I swear I will pay you back.
00:10:01It's a special marriage contract.
00:10:03There's no divorce clause.
00:10:05That means you would marry me and can never leave me.
00:10:08I never thought about picking James.
00:10:11But do I really have a choice?
00:10:13If you pick me, this contract could be your compensation to James.
00:10:17It's what he's always wanted.
00:10:19Who do you think I am?
00:10:20Just something to trade or a tool for your pleasure?
00:10:25You clearly have a lover and yet you want to treat me like this?
00:10:28Is this how you're getting back at me?
00:10:30You didn't answer me.
00:10:32Me.
00:10:34Why?
00:10:35Emily.
00:10:37What are you doing here?
00:10:39I just came to drop off some files.
00:10:42If I did anything wrong, I'm really sorry.
00:10:44Emily.
00:10:45Emily.
00:10:46Any updates on our partnership?
00:10:47I think I should resign.
00:10:48What's going on between you two?
00:10:49Are you hiding something from me?
00:10:50No.
00:10:51It's just the work pressure.
00:10:52Stop talking nonsense.
00:10:53Just make sure you serve him well.
00:10:54You're not afraid of anything.
00:10:55I don't know.
00:10:56I'm sorry.
00:10:57I'm sorry.
00:10:58I'm sorry.
00:10:59I'm sorry.
00:11:00I'm sorry.
00:11:01I'm sorry.
00:11:02I'm sorry.
00:11:03I'm sorry.
00:11:04I'm sorry.
00:11:05I'm sorry.
00:11:06I'm sorry.
00:11:07Emily.
00:11:08I'm sorry.
00:11:09I'm sorry.
00:11:11I'm sorry.
00:11:12Emily.
00:11:13I'm sorry.
00:11:14What's going on between you two?
00:11:15You hiding something from me?
00:11:16No.
00:11:17It's just the work pressure.
00:11:18Just make sure you serve him well.
00:11:19You're the one that wants to work with him, not me.
00:11:24Don't forget who helped you when you were struggling.
00:11:26Your mother's still in the hospital waiting for treatment money.
00:11:28And I'm not giving you another dime.
00:11:31Frank, Mom still needs money for her medical bills.
00:11:34I need to earn it.
00:11:38Hey.
00:11:40I'm sorry.
00:11:41I got a little carried away.
00:11:44The pressure at work has been...
00:11:46intense.
00:11:47You understand, right?
00:11:49I love you.
00:11:51I don't want you to be Daniel's assistant either.
00:11:53We need to make this work for our future.
00:11:56I'll stay on us as assistant,
00:11:58but it's for my own sake.
00:12:01Okay.
00:12:05Whatever you say.
00:12:07Just hurry back.
00:12:08He's still inside.
00:12:09Emily is not a good guy.
00:12:17Why can't you see that?
00:12:26You're bleeding.
00:12:29What happened?
00:12:29Wait here.
00:12:32I...
00:12:33I'll go get the first aid kit.
00:12:35So you actually care that I'm hurt?
00:12:51Of course I do.
00:12:52Just try to keep it dry for the next few days.
00:13:00You might get infected.
00:13:03Tell me you don't feel this.
00:13:07Right now.
00:13:08I'll leave you alone.
00:13:13I...
00:13:13This isn't right.
00:13:20Being with someone you don't love,
00:13:21that's what isn't right.
00:13:22So I should just be with the boss
00:13:24that likes to flirt with me?
00:13:27Why patch me up at all?
00:13:29I'm your assistant.
00:13:31It's just my job.
00:13:32You're more than my assistant.
00:13:33The way you act,
00:13:34how you look at me,
00:13:35it's like...
00:13:36Sorry, I'm...
00:13:37I'm loyal to my marriage
00:13:38and my husband is still out there.
00:13:40When you left me,
00:13:41you were cold as ice.
00:13:43You were willing to sacrifice our love.
00:13:44How is being with James any different?
00:13:46Enough!
00:13:48Stop.
00:13:50Please.
00:13:52Mr. Oster,
00:13:59isn't your sweetheart supposed to be here by now?
00:14:01She already left.
00:14:03What?
00:14:04I didn't see her outside.
00:14:07She was unhappy with our arrangements
00:14:10and has turned me down
00:14:13several times.
00:14:15What?
00:14:16What kind of woman would turn down someone like you?
00:14:19Just force her to be with you?
00:14:21That you ended up with Emily?
00:14:23We actually,
00:14:23we're together because of her ex-boyfriend.
00:14:33What does her ex have to do with this?
00:14:37Sorry I'm late.
00:14:38Hey, darling.
00:14:46I've been too busy to take you out this week.
00:14:48Let's change that tonight.
00:14:49We'll talk later.
00:14:51I'll wear your favorite unicorn.
00:14:52Emily.
00:14:54Emily.
00:14:55You really should see his true colors.
00:14:59Marriage you're trying to protect is a joke.
00:15:02This is the house special.
00:15:08The same one Vivian recommended to me when we first met two years ago.
00:15:13Fooling around with Vivian for two years.
00:15:19Quite the catch, James.
00:15:32What's going on between Emily and James?
00:15:42I need you to come pick me up.
00:15:44I can't drive with my hand.
00:15:57I need you to come pick me up.
00:15:59I can't drive with my hand.
00:16:01What?
00:16:03Are you serious?
00:16:04It's midnight.
00:16:05I'm about to get home.
00:16:07You know what?
00:16:08Just leave me.
00:16:09Just leave your boss on the side of the road.
00:16:11You're a great assistant.
00:16:13You're on a date.
00:16:14That's not part of my job.
00:16:16Call Sean.
00:16:18Sean's out of town.
00:16:20Then call a cab.
00:16:22And don't give me that nonsense about rich people not calling cab.
00:16:26You used to handle this kind of stuff for us all the time.
00:16:28I mean.
00:16:31You remember.
00:16:33Well, I don't have any cash on me.
00:16:35My car's out there.
00:16:37Then figure it out for yourself.
00:16:38Who does he think he is calling me at this hour?
00:16:48Oh.
00:16:49A billionaire?
00:16:50Can't get a ride home?
00:16:52Not my problem.
00:16:53I must be out of my mind to care about him.
00:16:59I must be out of my mind to care about him.
00:17:30You're home now, so...
00:17:36I should head out.
00:17:38You could stay.
00:17:40Just for a while.
00:17:42And...
00:17:44What's the catch?
00:17:46Boss and employee?
00:17:49Emily.
00:17:50It's me.
00:17:52Just tell me the truth.
00:17:54What's going on between you and James?
00:17:56What did you hear?
00:18:01You know there's more to it.
00:18:04You don't just leave our life together with no reason.
00:18:11Believe what you want.
00:18:13I just wanted a life of luxury with someone who could provide for me.
00:18:17I can provide you any luxuries.
00:18:20Come on.
00:18:22I could never measure up to you.
00:18:25If you just wanted a sexual plaything, find someone else.
00:18:29That's what you think I want.
00:18:31You're a public figure.
00:18:33It wouldn't be a good idea if either of us got too close.
00:18:37Too close? And you're like this?
00:18:38You're like this?
00:19:00Was that Emily?

00:29:30of course

00:38:28you know how important this is
00:38:30yeah
00:38:32why is daniel helping me
00:38:34does he still care about me
00:38:39you don't have to do this
00:38:54you know. You don't have to do this for me. He's your business partner. Get the business
00:39:06partners. You're the only one I care about. I don't want you here with me. I can't. This
00:39:14wouldn't be right. I'm jealous. I'm jealous of him. I don't want to be here with me. You're
00:39:24all mine.
00:39:54What did I do? I slept with Daniel. I must be out of my mind. How could I have done this?
00:40:13Take the day off. Make breakfast.
00:40:16Emily, this is cheating. It's wrong. You need to get your life back on track before
00:40:25it gets even more complicated.
00:40:38Emily, I made your favorite. Pancakes.
00:40:40Daniel, we need to talk.
00:40:49I'm resigning.
00:40:53I'm really sorry, Daniel. Last night was a mistake. I'm married.
00:40:59Did you just go to sleep with me and kick me to the curb?
00:41:01I'm really sorry. You've got your life. This isn't right.
00:41:12James isn't right for you. Why can't you see that? Why are you being so naive?
00:41:16John. Yes, I need you to look into something for me. And I need you to take care of James. Now.
00:41:37You didn't come home last night. Where were you? I had to work late. I got caught up with something at work.
00:41:58That smells like men's cologne. Whose is it? It's Daniel's. We were discussing your contract.
00:42:11What? The signed documents were flagged because the contracts are invalid? The clients canceled everything? This can't be happening.
00:42:20I've been in this business my entire life and I've never seen anything like this. Someone's setting me up.
00:42:26Hold on. I get another call.
00:42:29What? We agreed upon two months.
00:42:32How the hell am I supposed to come up with that much cash by next weekend?
00:42:35Shit! How is everything going wrong at once?
00:42:39I need to lay low for a while. We can't afford any more delays in the contract.
00:42:44Get Daniel to sign it or it won't just be us who suffer.
00:42:46It's for your mother too.
00:42:56Boss, I've taken care of everything you asked. James' company is drowning in trouble now.
00:43:01Boss, are you really going to take Emily for something like that?
00:43:05I'm not letting her suffer any longer.
00:43:09James needs to pay for what he's done.
00:43:11Emily, right? Be at the Crown Hotel. Room 102 in 30 minutes. Or you can start planning your lover's funeral.
00:43:29Daniel, is he in trouble?
00:43:35Boss, we just got word that James' bookie might be targeting Emily now.
00:43:40We're targeting Emily now.
00:43:50Where have they taken Daniel?
00:43:56Where is he?
00:43:57I was about to ask you the same thing.
00:44:00James was supposed to pay today.
00:44:02Where the hell is he?
00:44:04James?
00:44:06I don't know. He hasn't reached out to me.
00:44:09Haven't seen him.
00:44:11I guess he'll have to do.
00:44:13James is a piece of trash.
00:44:15When everything went to hell, he left you to clean up his mess.
00:44:18It's his mess.
00:44:23It's his mess.
00:44:25Go find him.
00:44:27Bitch, you still there to call for help?
00:44:30You think James would come running?
00:44:33If I messed up your face.
00:44:39Where's the damn door?
00:44:46Who are you, asshole?
00:44:48You're asking for trouble.
00:44:51Found him. Get away from that moment.
00:44:53Daniel, watch out!
00:44:55Who are you, asshole?
00:44:57You're asking for trouble.
00:44:59Found him. Get away from that moment.
00:45:01Daniel, watch out!
00:45:03Watch out!
00:45:20Emily.
00:45:23Are you okay?
00:45:24Fine.
00:45:26You're bleeding.
00:45:28Let me see.
00:45:30Doesn't matter.
00:45:31As long as you're okay.
00:45:34Let's get you somewhere safe.
00:45:35How do you know where to find me?
00:45:36You don't become the youngest billionaire without taking a few chances. I know where all my potential enemies are at all times.
00:45:45I'll never let anyone hurt you.
00:45:46I know where all my potential enemies are at all times.
00:45:48I'll never let anyone hurt you.
00:45:51James could be home any minute.
00:45:52James could be home any minute.
00:45:53I know where all my potential enemies are at all times.
00:45:54I know where all my potential enemies are at all times.
00:45:59I know where all my potential enemies are at all times.
00:46:00I know where all my potential enemies are at all times.
00:46:01I know where all my potential enemies are at all times.
00:46:02I'll never let anyone hurt you.
00:46:04James could be home any minute.
00:46:05James could be home any minute.
00:46:06We should probably go.
00:46:07James ran off and left you to clean up his mess.
00:46:24James ran off and left you to clean up his mess.
00:46:27Honestly, how can you still be defending him?
00:46:30Do you really still love him?
00:46:31Do you want to be married to him?
00:46:35Daniel, please.
00:46:37Don't ask.
00:46:39I don't want you to know about the past.
00:46:43It's too painful.
00:46:47He was good to me.
00:46:49Back then.
00:46:54I'm tired.
00:46:55You should probably go.
00:47:04You don't deserve this.
00:47:05We don't deserve this.
00:47:08Fuck!
00:47:12What am I doing, Daniel?
00:47:15Please, don't be so kind to me.
00:47:17You shouldn't have let him leave like that.
00:47:25Without an umbrella, what if his wound gets infected?
00:47:47Daniel?
00:47:49Daniel?
00:47:54Are you looking for me?
00:47:55You don't care about me.
00:47:56I thought if a billionaire like you got caught out in a storm like this, the place would
00:48:10come out.
00:48:11Can you just live it out for yourself?
00:48:14Yeah.
00:48:16You don't care about it for a while.
00:48:18That's all I need.
00:48:19No, no.
00:48:21No, no.
00:48:23No.
00:48:24No, no, no.
00:48:26You don't care about it for a while.
00:48:28That's all I need to do.
00:48:30I don't care about it for a while.
00:48:33I don't care about it anymore, that's all I need is food.
00:49:03What have I gotten myself into?
00:49:28I love you, Daniel, but I can't drag you into this toxic relationship.
00:49:36You kissed me.
00:49:41Just admit it, you love me.
00:49:50Divorce James, marry me.
00:49:54Daniel...
00:50:02I'm sorry, but...
00:50:04Really? After how much he's hurt you, you still can't leave him?
00:50:08What the hell does that bastard have over you?
00:50:22We need to end this. I'm married. We've gone too far.
00:50:28Emily, please, be with me.
00:50:32James' company is going bankrupt, right? If you stay with me, I'll invest in his company.
00:50:40What do you take me for? Some kind of object?
00:50:44Just...
00:50:46We're done here. Leave me alone.
00:50:49Emily, are you okay?
00:50:56Emily, are you okay?
00:50:57I'm fine. Just go away.
00:51:02Hmm.
00:51:18Hmm.
00:51:27James is the only one who knew about my mother's hospitalization.
00:51:41Could it really be him?
00:51:47Emily, I need a favor.
00:51:49I found a new investor and he's willing to provide funding.
00:51:52But I need you to meet him for me.
00:51:54Come back and face this yourself, James.
00:51:56I almost died because of you.
00:51:59Please, just this once.
00:52:01Did you pay for my mother's medical bills?
00:52:04I just got the hospital notice.
00:52:07Uh, yeah, yeah.
00:52:09Now please, help me out. I've sent you the address.
00:52:13Fine.
00:52:15But remember, this is the last time.
00:52:17Boss, I found out James has been talking to bar researchers.
00:52:27He's trying to offer Emily some sort of bargaining chip to secure funding.
00:52:32First, he abuses her.
00:52:34Then he treats her like some sort of commodity.
00:52:35I want him buried.
00:52:38He will regret this.
00:52:47Get him done.
00:52:49I want James' company bankrupt.
00:52:51Tomorrow.
00:52:54So it's you.
00:52:57You're the one behind all of this?
00:53:00Why?
00:53:02Emily, please.
00:53:04You don't understand everything he's done.
00:53:05He's a jerk.
00:53:06I know, but the one who crossed the line, it's me.
00:53:09I don't know everything I know.
00:53:16Is this why you brought me here?
00:53:19I don't need you stepping in, Daniel.
00:53:21I can handle this on my own.
00:53:32Boss.
00:53:33Boss's been taken care of.
00:53:34We found some type of sex dungeon at his place.
00:53:37Thankfully, Emily never made it there.
00:53:39If she had, it could have been bad.
00:53:42Should I tell her?
00:53:43No.
00:53:45No.
00:53:47Keep this between us.
00:54:04Where the hell have you been?
00:54:06My company's bankrupt.
00:54:08It's your fault.
00:54:10James, stop!
00:54:11What the hell were you doing with Daniel all day?
00:54:14Nothing's helping.
00:54:15I asked you to meet Bart.
00:54:16Where the hell were you?
00:54:17The investor you mentioned is Bart?
00:54:19So what?
00:54:20He just wants to help us.
00:54:21I will do anything it takes to get my company back on track.
00:54:24Even if that means letting him degrade your wife.
00:54:26Shut up, you cursed woman.
00:54:28Ever since I got tied to you, my luck's gone to hell.
00:54:31Our company's ruined because of you.
00:54:32Don't pin this on me!
00:54:34You never take responsibility for your own mess,
00:54:37and I'm done being your scapegoat!
00:54:41Don't get that shit on me!
00:54:42Congratulations, Emily.
00:55:01You're four weeks pregnant.
00:55:02I can't believe I'm going to have a child.
00:55:11Daniel's child.
00:55:12I can't let James know about the pregnancy.
00:55:15And I have to cut ties with Daniel.
00:55:18What about the baby?
00:55:19Are you all right?
00:55:30What did the doctor say?
00:55:31I'm fine.
00:55:32The doctor said everything's going to be okay.
00:55:34Please.
00:55:35Let me see the report.
00:55:36This is personal.
00:55:38Please respect my privacy.
00:55:45Mr. Allister.
00:55:47You look like you recovered from your surgery.
00:55:49Emily left this behind.
00:55:52Could you give that to her for me, please?
00:55:56Thank you, doctor.
00:55:57What the hell are you doing?
00:56:20You're pregnant?
00:56:21Four weeks?
00:56:22I haven't touched you in over a year.
00:56:25Who the hell is the father of this child?
00:56:27I'm sorry.
00:56:31While I'm not even trying to save my company,
00:56:33I'm speaking with other men behind my back.
00:56:35Let me go!
00:56:36Tell me who it is.
00:56:38Tell me which guy you're seeking with.
00:56:40You and that bastard are going to regret it, I swear.
00:56:42What if I saved me?
00:56:53You gotta be kidding me.
00:57:01What did this happen?
00:57:03If you'd pay any attention at all,
00:57:05you'd know how I feel about her.
00:57:07Wait.
00:57:08So you set her up as your assistant on purpose?
00:57:10So what?
00:57:12And you do the whole time?
00:57:13Acting like a saint?
00:57:14Sleeping with him like a slut?
00:57:15You don't get to say that.
00:57:17You scum!
00:57:19You're an idiot.
00:57:21All that money, you couldn't find a decent woman?
00:57:23Instead, you chased this useless, pathetic woman?
00:57:26Enough, Daniel!
00:57:27Don't get dragged into this.
00:57:30James, you bastard.
00:57:32You two are cut from the same cloth.
00:57:35You'll end up betraying each other.
00:57:36Mark my words.
00:57:38Say one more thing about her.
00:57:41You'll never speak again.
00:57:42You might want to get back.
00:57:55God damn it!
00:57:56Where are you?
00:57:57If you don't play up, you're dead.
00:58:01You two watch your backs.
00:58:03I'm not done with you.
00:58:06Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?
00:58:12Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?
00:58:20It's none of your concern.
00:58:21You're still hiding the truth from me.
00:58:25I'll give you whatever you want.
00:58:28You know I'm better than James.
00:58:29It's not a competition, Daniel.
00:58:32A child isn't going to prove anything.
00:58:34You're not with him anymore.
00:58:36I don't understand.
00:58:37He's done all these things to you,
00:58:39and you're still defending him.
00:58:40Because the way that he confronted me just now,
00:58:47I couldn't even stand up for myself.
00:58:51I feel like I'm the one in the wrong.
00:58:56I'm the cheater.
00:58:58So this is it then?
00:59:00You're just going to stay in this toxic place?
00:59:03James is right.
00:59:07But I wasn't any better sneaking around with you.
00:59:12I deserve the consequences of my actions.
00:59:15Evelyn.
00:59:16Just answer me this.
00:59:20You were pregnant.
00:59:22The decision you made all those years ago.
00:59:25I wish I could stay by your side.
00:59:41I'm sorry.
00:59:42I've never regretted it.
00:59:56Not for a second.
00:59:57I've never regretted it.
00:59:58Not for a second.
01:00:00What the hell?
01:00:23Why are James' deaths coming to me?
01:00:25James, where the hell are you?
01:00:30In paradise, you idiot.
01:00:32Vivian actually knows how to please a man.
01:00:34And you?
01:00:34You crawl into Daniel's bed with those pathetic skills of yours.
01:00:37I'm done with you.
01:00:38Let's get this divorce over with.
01:00:41You're leaving her?
01:00:43Finally, after two years.
01:00:46I guess it's really worth it.
01:00:48Two years?
01:00:50You two have been together for two years?
01:00:53What did you think?
01:00:54Just a pretty face to me.
01:00:56I never would have married you if it wasn't for that.
01:00:58Why did you keep paying my mother's medical bills?
01:01:01I never put a dime into that black hole.
01:01:03By the way, I'm $20 million in debt now.
01:01:06What the hell are you talking about?
01:01:09You transferred the debts to me?
01:01:11Think of it as my parting gift.
01:01:13You've got a Daniel wrapper in your finger, right?
01:01:15You shouldn't be hard to get him to pay it off.
01:01:17I just spread those legs again.
01:01:19Dave, you're a disgusting scumbag.
01:01:21Just sign the papers.
01:01:22We're done.
01:01:37$100 million.
01:01:38That's the price for messing around with my wife.
01:01:40Call it compensation.
01:01:42My lawyer would call it extortion, James.
01:01:44He'd tear this apart in a minute.
01:01:46Oh.
01:01:47I don't think he will.
01:01:47I've got plenty more where that came from.
01:01:53Imagine if they went viral.
01:01:56Keep swinging, Daniel.
01:01:58We'll change a thing.
01:01:59Either pay her up or I'll make sure everyone sees these.
01:02:01Think she'll stay with you after that?
01:02:03Dream on.
01:02:03Take it.
01:02:09Delete everything you have on her.
01:02:14Get out of our lives forever.
01:02:17Who would have thought Emily would mean so much to you?
01:02:19This could make things so much easier.
01:02:21Threaten me or Emily again.
01:02:33And it will be your last regret.
01:02:36Trust me.
01:02:37There is no hell deep enough that I won't find you.
01:02:41You think just because you're a CEO, you're untouchable?
01:02:44I'll expose you and that bitch.
01:02:46The so-called California billionaire.
01:02:48Stealing another man's wife.
01:02:50How do you think that's going to play out?
01:02:54I won't get the chance, James.
01:02:56I'm going to make sure you pay for everything.
01:03:00What's so special about her?
01:03:02Why are you doing this for her?
01:03:03I have no shame, James, on how you treat your wife.
01:03:08Why did she end up with you anyway?
01:03:11She never would have married me if it wasn't her pathetic ex.
01:03:18What does her ex have to do with this?
01:03:20I lent her money to pay for that loser's medical bills.
01:03:23That's why she married me.
01:03:26Stephen Miller, Central District PD.
01:03:28You are under arrest for extortion intent to harm.
01:03:31Intent to harm?
01:03:32Look at my face!
01:03:34Tell it to the judge.
01:03:36I won't forget this.
01:03:37You two will always be trash.
01:03:41Emily, there's something I need to tell you.
01:03:48How could you do this to me?
01:03:50Do what?
01:03:51Everything.
01:03:52About James.
01:03:54The affair.
01:03:55The dead.
01:03:56Using me like some pawn.
01:03:58No.
01:03:59No, Emily.
01:03:59It wasn't like that.
01:04:00You don't understand, okay?
01:04:02Was it funny watching me look like a fool?
01:04:05I just...
01:04:06I needed to help you.
01:04:08You didn't...
01:04:09We didn't deserve this.
01:04:12Emily, where are you?
01:04:13I don't know who I am anymore.
01:04:15I've lost everything.
01:04:18I'm so tired.
01:04:19I...
01:04:19I can't do this anymore.
01:04:21I can't do this anymore.
01:04:44Emily!
01:04:46Daniel, by the time you read this, I'll be gone.
01:04:58When we spoke, I had already made up my mind to end it all.
01:05:02I'm so tired.
01:05:04I've never really had a life of my own.
01:05:07Not since I married James.
01:05:09I never loved him.
01:05:11But I tried to be the wife he wanted.
01:05:14And the end was all a lie.
01:05:17You'll be the light of my life.
01:05:19I'm grateful for you.
01:05:21Always.
01:05:22I love you.
01:05:23I always have.
01:05:25But I can't let you carry the weight of me.
01:05:27We don't belong in the same world anymore.
01:05:30You deserve so much better.
01:05:33For our child, I'll be strong.
01:05:37Please don't come looking for me.
01:05:40Well, we deserve each other.
01:05:44And all I want is you.
01:05:45Hey, Mommy.
01:06:02Hey, Mom.
01:06:03Weren't you playing with Stacy?
01:06:05Stacy said she was going to ride her bike around the block.
01:06:08So I came back.
01:06:10Honey, why don't you let me teach you how to ride a bike?
01:06:13It's not fair.
01:06:15All my friends learn from their daddies.
01:06:17When can I meet mine?
01:06:20Maybe one day, sweetie.
01:06:23How about this?
01:06:24You go next door and ask Mrs. Baker for your favorite treat?
01:06:28Snow cone?
01:06:30And tell her I said you can have extra syrup.
01:06:32Yay!
01:06:33Yay!
01:06:33Yay!
01:06:33Yay!
01:06:33Yay!
01:06:34Yay!
01:06:34Yay!
01:06:34Yay!
01:06:34Yay!
01:06:34Yay!
01:06:34Yay!
01:06:34Yay!
01:06:34Yay!
01:06:40Emily, it's been five years.
01:06:43Where are you?
01:06:47Daddy?
01:06:59What'd you say?
01:07:00I seen your pictures at my house.
01:07:04You probably saw me on TV.
01:07:05Can you teach me how to ride my bike?
01:07:10You don't know how?
01:07:16What's your name?
01:07:18Emma.
01:07:21Well, Emma, it's been a while for me, but I think we can manage.
01:07:30Okay.
01:07:31Hold on to the handlebars tight.
01:07:32I think you already know.
01:07:34Okay, okay.
01:07:35Pedal.
01:07:36Here we go!
01:07:36Pedal.
01:07:37All right.
01:07:38Good.
01:07:39Watch your balance.
01:07:42I want to go faster.
01:07:44You can do it.
01:07:46Whoa!
01:07:50I did it!
01:07:51You did it!
01:07:51I did it!
01:07:57Snowflake Design.
01:07:58It's from the dress I designed for Emily years ago.
01:08:05Where'd you get that necklace?
01:08:06Where'd you get that necklace?
01:08:07My mommy gave it to me.
01:08:08I've worn it since I was born.
01:08:10She said it was very special to her.
01:08:13Where's mommy?
01:08:16At the store.
01:08:18Can you take me there?
01:08:22Come on, let's go!
01:08:26Mommy!
01:08:27Mommy!
01:08:39Yep, it's you.
01:08:45Emma, why don't you go into the other room, okay?
01:08:49Okay, mommy.
01:08:49I don't know.
01:08:52Danny.
01:08:54Is it really you?
01:08:58Hey.
01:09:06Danny.
01:09:07Is it really you?
01:09:10Five long years.
01:09:12I've been searching for you.
01:09:16I've been searching for you.
01:09:18And now that I have you,
01:09:20I'm never going to let you go again.
01:09:23You.
01:09:26Your daughter.
01:09:28That's all that matters.
01:09:31I can only begin to understand
01:09:33the sacrifices you made for us.
01:09:35The medical bills, the money.
01:09:37James.
01:09:38I'll never let them hurt you again.
01:09:46I hurt you too.
01:09:48I was jealous, and I was cruel, and I'm so sorry.
01:09:53I'll do whatever it takes
01:09:55to make this right for our family.
01:09:59You've always been there for me.
01:10:04You...
01:10:05kept helping me.
01:10:07supporting me.
01:10:10You even paid my mom's bills
01:10:12when they couldn't.
01:10:15You don't have to thank me for that.
01:10:24I'm not the woman you deserve.
01:10:29I've been torn apart.
01:10:33You deserve...
01:10:34so much more.
01:10:37so much...
01:10:38better than this...
01:10:39than me.
01:10:40...
01:10:41We'll see you next time.
01:11:11Daniel, can you help me pick up Emma's toy?
01:11:20She's taking a nap.
01:11:25On it, honey.
01:11:26Hey, let me take that.
01:11:28The doctor said to stay off your feet.
01:11:31Let me help.
01:11:37Hold on, Mr. Oster.
01:11:40The doctor said we should wait until after the baby is born.
01:11:45Emily, you're like a drug.
01:11:49One touch, you can never get enough.
01:11:54I got you something.
01:12:03That's cute.
01:12:06No.
01:12:07It's this.
01:12:11What is it?
01:12:14My company, my properties, all my assets.
01:12:19They're yours.
01:12:21They've always been yours.
01:12:24After everything we've gone through.
01:12:27Everything we're going to go through.
01:12:30I won't let anything in this world tear us apart again.
01:12:34Merry Christmas, Mr. Oster.
01:12:43Merry Christmas, Mrs. Oster.
01:12:47Merry Christmas, Mr. Oster.
01:13:02Merry Christmas, Mr. Oster.
01:13:04Merry Christmas, Mr. Oster.
