00:00:42Really?
00:00:45I'm going to need some time to reconsider this offer.
00:00:48I'm sorry?
00:00:48I just need some time to think.
00:00:54How is it even possible?
00:00:56Dean, the man who abandoned me at the wedding is going to be my boss.
00:01:00I'll never let that happen.
00:01:09Hello?

00:02:36all right buddy time for bed there we go
00:02:43daddy is this my mom i'll be taking that now buddy
00:02:54take this design for example the stone is way too big it overwhelms the band and the setting
00:03:05is wrong it'll just snag on everything my designs are perfectly fine fine isn't what couples remember
00:03:11on their wedding day what you need to do is lower the profile taper the band and then add some micro
00:03:20pave to balance the center
00:03:23then you have a design that's elegant and practical dean are you gonna let her just do this
00:03:31she's right the proportions wear off setting would have caused many problems sylvia i'm putting you

00:03:45they specifically requested for innovative design but dean that's supposed to be your project

00:10:14i designed i designed it with the intention of representing simplicity and love
00:10:22um to represent a love that wasn't perfect but it was simple and sincere

00:11:10oh
00:11:12oh
00:11:14oh
00:11:16oh
00:11:18oh
00:11:24oh
00:11:26oh
00:11:28oh
00:11:34oh
00:11:40oh
00:11:44Olivia, please, we need to talk.
00:11:53No, I didn't mean to bring up the past, okay?
00:11:55I just, that Sketch was the only one that I had.
00:11:59I know.
00:12:00Just open the door.
00:12:01Will you just leave me alone?
00:12:14I thought you were gone.
00:12:27I'm not going anywhere.
00:12:29I'm sorry, Sylvia, for leaving you at the altar, for everything I did.
00:12:34I never meant to hurt you.
00:12:37It's too late for your apologies.
00:12:40I don't want you close to me.
00:12:42I don't even want to see you.
00:12:43Sylvia, if I'll let you go now, I'll go crazy.
00:12:46You can be mad at me, scream at me, but please don't just shut me out.
00:12:50You think that saying all of this makes everything better?
00:12:54That it just erases what you did?
00:12:56No, no, nothing can erase it.
00:12:58But I'm still here.
00:12:59I'm still in love with you, Sylvia.
00:13:02I never stopped.
00:13:04You have any idea how I suffered all these years?
00:13:07How I miss you?
00:13:10I shouldn't feel this way.
00:13:13I'm still in love with you, Sylvia.
00:13:18Carry the weight of the world on your shoulders, but don't let it make you older, they say.
00:13:31I don't want to see your face.
00:13:45I don't want to see your face.
00:13:47All my goals know their strength.
00:13:54I'll be brave and trying to wait.
00:13:58What's wrong with me?
00:14:18I'm supposed to rise above Dean, or at least punch him out.
00:14:21Not this.
00:14:24Morning, Sylvia.
00:14:25This night was great, wasn't it?
00:14:32Um, Dean, let's, um, let's not talk about this again, or bring it up to anyone.
00:14:40What do you mean?
00:14:41I mean, we can't go back to how things were, okay?
00:14:44We have to forget about whatever just happened between us, okay?
00:14:48Do you understand me?
00:14:52Sure.
00:14:53Okay.
00:14:54You have to go.
00:15:08Don't worry, Sylvia.
00:15:09Dean told me everything.
00:15:11We'll find out who stole your project.
00:15:12Oh, I know who did it.
00:15:14Who?
00:15:14I can prove it.
00:15:15Christine, will you hand over my design for the Morrison wedding, please?
00:15:27Are you crazy?
00:15:29I didn't steal anything.
00:15:31You and I were the last people that had contact before I went on to present.
00:15:34I think you know exactly what happened.
00:15:37I don't know what you're talking about.
00:15:40Maybe you weren't careful enough with your memory stick.
00:15:45That's, that's funny.
00:15:47I never mentioned that I had my design saved on a memory stick.
00:15:50Usually designers will hand draw them or save them to a digital file.
00:15:54How did you know that mine was on a stick?
00:15:57Is that true?
00:15:57I've been on this team longer than anyone.
00:16:03And Sylvia's hated me from the start.
00:16:08She wants to frame me because she thinks she's above everyone else.
00:16:13She wasn't even respecting Dean.
00:16:15Like, she thinks she's above everyone else.
00:16:19I don't think I'm above anyone.
00:16:21And I don't just throw out accusations freely.
00:16:24Not without good reason.
00:16:26You already exposed yourself, Christine.
00:16:33Why are you doing this to me?
00:16:35I trust Christine more.
00:16:37To be honest, she's always been nice.
00:16:40She must be lying.
00:16:41Look at her.
00:16:42Enough.
00:16:47Dean, come on, you know...
00:16:48Drop the act, Christine.
00:16:56Catching you off guard isn't proof of guilt.
00:16:59But look at your recent submissions.
00:17:02You're near duplicates of Sylvia's early work.
00:17:05Clear plagiarism.
00:17:08Check her desk.
00:17:11And no, wait, you can't.
00:17:18Now, what else?
00:17:26I...
00:17:27I didn't mean to steal.
00:17:29She wasn't respecting him.
00:17:32I...
00:17:32I did it for you, Dean.
00:17:34Everything that I did was for you.
00:17:37Christine...
00:17:38You're fired.
00:17:40You just used my name to justify betrayal.
00:17:45And with a plagiarism and theft record,
00:17:48no unreputable jewelry has will hire you again.
00:17:52Security, get her out of here.
00:17:54Hey.
00:18:09Thanks.
00:18:10I didn't expect you to be so decisive.
00:18:13I kind of expected you to go easy on Christine.
00:18:15Kindness only enables people like her.
00:18:19She almost destroyed your career.
00:18:22That's my red line.
00:18:23Well...
00:18:24Thanks again.
00:18:26Are you really not going to talk to me still?
00:18:30Dean, I think it's better this way for both of us.
00:18:33If we just keep it about work between us.
00:18:38Then...
00:18:38What if it is about work?
00:18:41What?
00:18:42Well, you got your USB back.
00:18:44I wanted to review the design together.
00:18:46Are you being serious right now?
00:18:48I'm serious.
00:18:49It's excellent, but...
00:18:51It's not good enough.
00:18:53Not for you.
00:18:56Technically, it's perfect.
00:19:00But that's the problem.
00:19:04It's cold.
00:19:06It's delicate.
00:19:08Precise.
00:19:08But there's no joy in it.
00:19:12No romance.
00:19:15It's a ring.
00:19:16It's not a pillow.
00:19:17No.
00:19:17It's a promise.
00:19:19People come to us for love.
00:19:21Not just a product.
00:19:23They want to feel something real.
00:19:26Promise?
00:19:27Do you think that I believe in that?
00:19:30I'm sorry if I lost my passion.
00:19:33Who do I have to thank for that, Dean?
00:19:38You can still feel that passion again.
00:19:42You know what?
00:19:42You're right.
00:19:44Yeah, maybe...
00:19:45Maybe I should go on a date.
00:19:46A...
00:19:47A date?
00:19:48You said I need more passion.
00:19:49You said I need more passion.
00:20:00Hello.
00:20:01Sylvia Wilkins.
00:20:02Myra.
00:20:02Designer.
00:20:03Nice to meet you as well.
00:20:04Enjoy the exhibit.
00:20:06Hey, are you Sylvia Wilkins?
00:20:22Your designs are incredible.
00:20:25My name is Jacob.
00:20:26I'm a graduate student in forensic genetics.
00:20:28Nice to meet you.
00:20:29I didn't realize that students studying forensic genetics were interested in gems.
00:20:36Yeah, you get the point.
00:20:37I have no idea about any of them, except that they're all expensive.
00:20:42So would you mind telling me a little bit about them?
00:20:44What the hell is that guy?
00:20:48Absolutely.
00:20:51All of our gems, we actually do mine.
00:20:53We don't believe in lab growing our gems here, so...
00:20:57My thesis is on forensic genetics.
00:21:00Basically, solving mysteries through DNA, which sounds serious, but I'm the type that can turn
00:21:05the darkest crime scenes into stories to make my friends laugh.
00:21:08That's impressive.
00:21:10Well, what about you?
00:21:11How do you usually work?
00:21:12Are you designers surrounded by these beautiful stones all the time?
00:21:15Oh, um...
00:21:17Well, I work in silence.
00:21:20I design sketches that try and capture love in cold stones and metal, so it's really not
00:21:29that exciting of a job.
00:21:30Well, there's a kind of magic in that, too.
00:21:33Transforming feelings into something tangible.
00:21:36It's like you're telling a story without words.
00:21:38Maybe.
00:21:39Or it's just a business.
00:21:41I don't buy that.
00:21:43You have to believe in what you're creating, otherwise it's just jewelry.
00:21:46Besides, that smile tells me you still believe.
00:21:48So, are you single?
00:21:57So, are you single?
00:21:59You seem to have a lot of questions, and I happen to be one of the organizers of this
00:22:07event.
00:22:07So, if you have any questions, just ask me.
00:22:10You seem like you need a rest.
00:22:12Have you been working with him?
00:22:13I'm fine.
00:22:14Is he your boyfriend?
00:22:15No.
00:22:15Yes.
00:22:16He's not.
00:22:17I was.
00:22:18He's my ex.
00:22:19Uh, dinner plans later?
00:22:20We actually have a lot of meetings that we can't miss.
00:22:25It sounds like your ex is using his power at work to interfere with your personal life.
00:22:29Isn't it getting a little late?
00:22:31You should probably go home since it's a school night.
00:22:34Because students have a little bit more energy, unlike some washed-up corporate has-been.
00:22:39So, any chance I could get your number?
00:22:44Really?
00:22:46That's your move?
00:22:47You got a better one?
00:22:48Oh, wait.
00:22:50You had yours.
00:22:51You blew it.
00:22:53You know nothing about her.
00:22:56Not yet.
00:22:57After dinner's four.
00:22:58Guys, are we really doing this right now?
00:23:00What, are we in kindergarten?
00:23:06Jacob.
00:23:09Thanks.
00:23:13Call me.
00:23:15Don't worry.
00:23:16I'll treat her better than her ex.
00:23:29Sylvia, wait.
00:23:31Look, I know I shouldn't have jumped in.
00:23:34I look pathetic.
00:23:36But seeing you smile at him, I just couldn't stand it, okay?
00:23:41You couldn't stand it?
00:23:45You couldn't stand that?
00:23:47That you could leave me standing alone in front of a hundred guests?
00:23:49If you care so much now, Dean,
00:23:52why didn't you show up on our wedding day?
00:23:54I'm not that weak girl you left behind now.
00:23:59So just tell me the reason.
00:24:01Were you afraid of marriage or did you just not love me enough?
00:24:03No, I wasn't afraid.
00:24:05Then why?
00:24:06Look, I had my reasons.
00:24:07I was falling apart.
00:24:09I just, I can't explain it to you.
00:24:12Still, after all these years,
00:24:15you say that you were falling apart,
00:24:16but that can't be the full story.
00:24:18So just give me the reason.
00:24:21You know, I used to dream every night
00:24:24that you would come back,
00:24:26whisper that you were sorry,
00:24:28that you still love me.
00:24:36But now I'll stop waiting.
00:24:37I don't want your guilt or your memories.
00:24:39I just want the truth.
00:24:41So either you tell me, or I'm gone.
00:24:43Sylvia.
00:24:55There's only one truth.
00:24:57I never stop loving you.
00:24:59Do you think that I would believe that?
00:25:01You're a liar, Dean.
00:25:03Please.
00:25:05Don't go.
00:25:06I'll tell you everything.
00:25:07It's because I wasn't worthy of you.
00:25:14I don't understand.
00:25:17We both came from the same place.
00:25:20We both graduated from design schools.
00:25:22We had the same dream.
00:25:24We even met at a design competition.
00:25:26Yes, and you defeated me.
00:25:28You stood there with your design.
00:25:31So bold.
00:25:33So impossible.
00:25:35Everyone called it reckless.
00:25:37They also said that it was too risky.
00:25:39You were the only person
00:25:41that stood in front of all of them
00:25:42and defended me.
00:25:43You were the bravest person in the room.
00:25:47You always have been.
00:25:48It was never about our dreams
00:25:51or your brilliance.
00:25:54The problem was
00:25:55I made a huge mistake.
00:26:00And while you were rising,
00:26:01brilliant, unstoppable,
00:26:03I was falling apart.
00:26:04And I thought you'd be much better off
00:26:07without me.
00:26:10I never thought that for a second.
00:26:12But if you keep running,
00:26:13I'm not going to keep waiting for you.
00:26:15Someone else is going to come into my life.
00:26:17And I'm going to let them.
00:26:18I'm going to date them,
00:26:19maybe sleep with them.
00:26:21Who knows, maybe I'll even marry them.
00:26:23Don't say that.
00:26:31Don't talk about being with another man.
00:26:34You left.
00:26:36You made room in your life for someone else.
00:26:38Just hearing it,
00:26:40it tears me apart.
00:26:44I know I may be selfish,
00:26:47but I can't stand the thought
00:26:49of you being with someone else.
00:26:50I can't breathe
00:26:51when I picture it.
00:26:54I know he's still hiding something,
00:26:56but when he kisses me,
00:26:59I just forget to care.
00:27:01I know I can't stand the chair.
00:27:16I know I'm with her.
00:27:18I know.
00:27:20I know.
00:27:20I know.
00:27:51Hey, if it's urgent, I can wait.
00:28:10I know.
00:28:17I'm sorry, Celia.
00:28:18Dean.
00:28:19I have to go.
00:28:20What's going on?
00:28:21If you walk out now, don't come back.
00:28:36I owe you the truth.
00:28:41Pauline and I dated seven years ago.
00:28:45It was short-lived, and we broke up way before you and I met.
00:28:51After a few years, when we were supposed to get married, she came back.
00:28:59She said she had a three-year-old son, and that I was the father.
00:29:06I was shocked, and I didn't believe her until she showed me the eternity test.
00:29:16Look, I'm about to marry somebody I truly love.
00:29:22I'll support Michael in every way I can, but I won't marry you.
00:29:27You think this is about money, Dean?
00:29:29Dean, your son has early signs of autism.
00:29:33What?
00:29:34Yeah.
00:29:35He eats by himself.
00:29:37He talks to himself.
00:29:39He's a total freak.
00:29:40You want to know why, Dean?
00:29:42Because he's never had a father.
00:29:44So don't expect to have a family with anyone else.
00:29:48You're stuck with me.
00:29:54I later realized that Michael's autism, it was purely because of Pauline's neglect.
00:30:00After three years with me, he talks, he plays, he laughs.
00:30:05Oh, my God.
00:30:06I'm telling the truth, Sylvia.
00:30:09Really.
00:30:10I just don't know what to believe anymore.
00:30:12The one thing you can believe is that I didn't leave our wedding because I didn't love you.
00:30:21I left because I thought I had to take responsibility.
00:30:26So then, what about Pauline?
00:30:29What happened?
00:30:30She just dropped Michael off and vanished.
00:30:33Didn't hear from her until recently.
00:30:35What kind of mother does that?
00:30:36Exactly.
00:30:37I've raced him alone, and those years were so joyful because of my goal, but also...
00:30:47But what?
00:30:49Extremely unbearable.
00:30:51Because I thought I lost you forever.
00:30:53And then you showed up at Sterling.
00:30:58It felt like a second chance.
00:31:00But it's too late now, isn't it?
00:31:04Because you're going to marry Pauline anyway.
00:31:07I know I don't deserve your forgiveness, but I had to take care of Michael.
00:31:13I had to be a father.
00:31:15So, you're going to marry Pauline and live a lie just to be under the illusion of having a perfect life?
00:31:25I know I sound pathetic, but I thought I lost you.
00:31:29And then you came back, and I started dreaming again.
00:31:34You don't get to dream with me.
00:31:35I spent years burying that day, trying to forget about the ring, the flowers, the empty aisle.
00:31:45Sylvia.
00:31:46Just tell Michael the truth one day.
00:31:54Goodbye, Dean.
00:31:55You're home.
00:32:17I missed you.
00:32:19Where's Michael?
00:32:20Oh, I was thinking about hiring a nanny for Michael, since we're doing so well financially.
00:32:28Why not?
00:32:30Someone to watch Michael while we spend more time together?
00:32:33You came back, and instead of building something with him, you got a nanny to do your job?
00:32:39Dean, I just want to spend more time with you.
00:32:41If you want to spend time with anyone, just spend it with Michael.
00:32:44You're such a fool, Dean.
00:32:49Michael isn't even your son.
00:32:51You've been raising a child that isn't yours all these years.
00:32:54But you've got more than I ever imagined.
00:32:58That's why letting you go isn't an option.
00:33:02Dean.
00:33:04Just stop working.
00:33:05I can give you a massage.
00:33:06No, thanks.
00:33:08I saw your designer today.
00:33:15What's her name?
00:33:16Sylvia Wilkins.
00:33:19What?
00:33:21What were you doing at Sterling?
00:33:23I was designing our wedding rings, of course.
00:33:26I asked Wilkins to handle it.
00:33:27Are you out of your mind?
00:33:29I'll handle the design, okay?
00:33:31You leave Sylvia out of this.
00:33:33It's because of her, isn't it?
00:33:36Don't worry.
00:33:36She seems nice enough.
00:33:39I'll befriend her.
00:33:50My dress has to match my ring perfectly.
00:33:53You're coming with me to pick it out.
00:33:55I have work to do.
00:33:56I can't just drop everything.
00:33:58Refuse, and I'll file a formal complaint with HR.
00:34:01Unprofessional conduct.
00:34:03Conflict of interest being Dean's ex.
00:34:05You'll lose the lead on this project.
00:34:09Fine.
00:34:10I'll go with you.
00:34:12Just wait, Dean.
00:34:13She'll never stand between us.
00:34:15You know, Dean told me everything that happened between you two.
00:34:29I felt so sorry that he left you to be with me.
00:34:32Wait, Dean told you that?
00:34:33Of course.
00:34:35He told me everything.
00:34:36I wouldn't worry about it too much, though.
00:34:39He said he never forgot about me, even when he was with you.
00:34:42Miss Miller, I don't need to know the details of your entire love story to design your grain.
00:34:47Really?
00:34:48Isn't that what designers do?
00:34:53Funny how some things never change.
00:34:56You're still just the help.
00:34:58Don't worry, darling.
00:35:00Soon you won't even be in the picture.
00:35:01No, no, Sylvia.
00:35:14Honestly, are you even trying?
00:35:16This looks like something off a discount catalog.
00:35:18All of our designs are original.
00:35:20You just asked for options?
00:35:21Options, yes.
00:35:24Not mediocrity.
00:35:25This design was based after ancient filigree.
00:35:28It's really interesting.
00:35:29Shut up!
00:35:31Honestly, you make me wonder.
00:35:33I mean, it's no secret you have a talent for making men pity you.
00:35:36Is that how you got this job?
00:35:38Say that again, and I swear...
00:35:39What?
00:35:40No, you can't, sweetie.
00:35:41I know everything that happened between you and Dean.
00:35:43What are you talking about?
00:35:45Dean and I are cheating.
00:35:46What do you think your clients, loving couples no less,
00:35:50but think about their designer being a homewrecker?
00:35:53I doubt anyone would trust you to design their wedding ring.
00:35:56How dare you call me a homewrecker?
00:35:58However, Dean and I met long after you two broke up.
00:36:02Doesn't matter.
00:36:03No one's going to believe you.
00:36:05Him and I are to get married.
00:36:07He'll be by my side, and you'll be alone.
00:36:11I'll design your ring.
00:36:12Just don't be too sure you can keep it.
00:36:17Oh, I'm sure.
00:36:18So, um, with everything that you have told me about your vision for your big day,
00:36:29I have considered that that might be a good pairing for you.
00:36:33What about that one?
00:36:35The one from your little exhibition?
00:36:37Seems familiar, doesn't it?
00:36:38Wait, you want...
00:36:40You want that one?
00:36:41It's a bit tacky, but it'll do.
00:36:45Sorry, that one is for...
00:36:47For you and Dean's wedding?
00:36:49Yes.
00:36:50Well, that wedding's over, so don't you think it belongs to the real bride now?
00:36:54I wonder what Dean will say.
00:36:56Pauline, that ring looks so much better on you.
00:36:58Or you're the one that really deserves it.
00:37:01Can't you just, like, pick another one?
00:37:03Oh, darling, I can't.
00:37:04Then you're not using it anyway, so why not make it easy,
00:37:08and you bring us that ring as your little gift to us?
00:37:12I'll never let you have it.
00:37:15Not as long as I'm alive.
00:37:18You really think you have a choice?
00:37:21Sylvia, you're just the ex that he left at the altar for me.
00:37:27Dean chose me.
00:37:29Dean cares about me more than he ever cared about you.
00:37:32Dean is a man of responsibility.
00:37:34The only reason he's marrying you is because of Michael, not for love.
00:37:38You?
00:37:40You're neither a good wife nor a good mother.
00:37:43I pity the life that you two will build together.
00:37:49What are you doing, Pauline?
00:37:50Dean, I'm your fiancé.
00:37:53How can you side with your ex over me?
00:37:56Sylvia's my designer now.
00:37:58No.
00:37:58No one, no one is allowed to hurt her.
00:38:02Not while I'm here.
00:38:07Dean, help me pick out the perfect dress.
00:38:11We have a wedding to plan.
00:38:13Would you just let me know what you decide when you figure it out?
00:38:16I have other stuff to do.
00:38:17I have other stuff to do.
00:38:24You really are something, Dean.
00:38:27We're about to get married and you're still thinking about another woman?
00:38:30I told you.
00:38:34I'll give you what you want.
00:38:37Money, the name.
00:38:39But you need to be a real mother to Michael.
00:38:41That's our deal.
00:38:43And I'll stay loyal to the marriage.
00:38:46But don't ask for more.
00:38:48Fine.
00:38:48Now let's get back to the dresses.
00:39:00This wedding is happening and no one, especially her, is going to ruin it.
00:39:06Find that woman.
00:39:09Sylvia Wilkins.
00:39:12Teach her a lesson.
00:39:14Some things aren't hers to touch.
00:39:17Sylvia, about Pauline's wedding ring project, I reassigned it to someone else.
00:39:39You don't have to do that anymore.
00:39:41Understood.
00:39:44Sylvia, I...
00:39:45Dean, we talked about this.
00:39:46You're the boss.
00:39:47I'm the employee.
00:39:48It's better for both of us if we just keep it that way, okay?
00:39:52You're right.
00:39:54Get home safe.
00:40:16Hey, I'm the boss.
00:40:17You're right.
00:40:18Let's take a look.
00:40:18Of course you're right.
00:40:28Anyway, can you leave?
00:40:29It's better for us if you keep it that way.
00:40:30You're right.
00:40:31I'm the boss.
00:40:31I'm the boss.
00:40:32You're right.
00:40:33I'm the boss.
00:40:35I'm the boss.
00:40:36You're right.
00:40:37You're right.
00:40:38Any other people, you're right here?
00:40:40What are you, sir?
00:40:41Where do you think you are going, sweetheart?
00:41:06I don't know you.
00:41:08I don't know you.
00:41:09Please just don't touch me.
00:41:11Just don't touch me.
00:41:12Calm down.
00:41:13Calm down.
00:41:14Let us remind you.
00:41:16Huh?
00:41:19You owe somebody.
00:41:21It's very important.
00:41:23And we're just here to remind you.
00:41:28This is about my debt.
00:41:30I don't know who's debt you, but I swear I'm working on it, okay?
00:41:35It's not about the money.
00:41:38You pissed the person off.
00:41:44Helene?
00:41:45Get in.
00:41:46Come on.
00:41:47Get in.
00:41:48Come on.
00:41:49Get in.
00:41:50Come on.
00:41:51Get in.
00:41:52Come on.
00:41:53Come on.
00:41:54Come on.
00:41:55Come on.
00:41:56Come on.
00:41:57Come on.
00:41:58Come on.
00:41:59Come on.
00:42:00Come on.
00:42:01Come on.
00:42:02Come on.
00:42:03Come on.
00:42:04Come on.
00:42:05Come on.
00:42:07Okay.
00:42:08Come on.
00:42:09Come on.
00:42:10Come on.
00:42:11So are you okay?
00:42:12Don't.
00:42:13You don't get to care about me anymore, okay?
00:42:15You're marrying Pauline.
00:42:16You don't get to care about me.
00:42:18Even if I'm marrying her, I can't ignore your safety.
00:42:22You know what they said?
00:42:23You know what they said?
00:42:24They said, they told me you messed with the wrong person.
00:42:29They didn't say her name, but I didn't know that they were talking about Pauline.
00:42:35Don't forget I said anything, though.
00:42:38She's the mother of your child.
00:42:40She doesn't get a free pass for that.
00:42:42And no one gets to hurt you.
00:42:44No while I'm still breathing.
00:42:51You're home late.
00:42:52Don't tell me you were with your little designer again.
00:42:59Pauline, do you have connections with people who do dirty work?
00:43:04What's going on?
00:43:05You think I'd do something criminal?
00:43:07Sylvia was nearly attacked tonight.
00:43:09Dean, come on.
00:43:11You think I hired criminals to attack her?
00:43:13What kind of woman do you think I am?
00:43:15How can you say that?
00:43:16I'm your fiancee.
00:43:17Then prove it.
00:43:19This marriage only happens if Sylvia's never touched.
00:43:23One incident.
00:43:24Just one.
00:43:25And the deal's off.
00:43:27No money, no wedding, nothing.
00:43:32Sweetie, come on.
00:43:34Sweetie, come on.
00:43:41Okay, of course.
00:43:42We'll protect your designer.
00:43:44I have nothing to hide.
00:43:49You think this scares me?
00:43:51You just handed me a clock, Dean.
00:43:53And she's already running out of time.
00:43:55What's up, kiddo?
00:43:56You're supposed to be in bed now.
00:43:57Dad!
00:43:58The nanny.
00:43:59She doesn't give me dinner.
00:44:00I'm hungry.
00:44:01Wait, what?
00:44:02Why is Michael at the nanny's?
00:44:03And why didn't you feed him?
00:44:04He ate, okay?
00:44:05The nanny gave him food.
00:44:06He's just seeking attention.
00:44:07He's six years old.
00:44:08He's six years old.
00:44:09Exactly.
00:44:10Not a baby.
00:44:11He's coming home tomorrow.
00:44:12I'll pick him up myself.
00:44:13I'll pick him up myself.
00:44:14I'll pick him up.
00:44:15I'll pick him up myself.
00:44:16I'll pick him up.
00:44:17How?
00:44:18How?
00:44:19You're not hungry.
00:44:20I'm hungry.
00:44:22Wait, what?
00:44:23Why is Michael at the nanny's?
00:44:25And why didn't you feed him?
00:44:26He ate, okay?
00:44:30The nanny gave him food.
00:44:31He's just seeking attention.
00:44:33He's six years old.
00:44:34Exactly.
00:44:35Not a baby.

00:48:54Start a life without all this noise.
00:48:58You're really kind.
00:49:01But I'm not ready to quit.
00:49:04I'll just rebuild from the wreckage, like I always do.
00:49:23Pauline, if this is true, then she didn't just try to hurt Sylvia if she wanted to destroy her.
00:49:33Why are you on my laptop?
00:49:48You don't eat this.
00:49:50You did this to her?
00:49:52Dean, that's not true.
00:49:54And what am I supposed to believe in?
00:49:55I was desperate.
00:49:57You were slipping away.
00:49:58Every time you looked at Sylvia, I saw it.
00:50:01I just wanted her gone.
00:50:04Stop lying, Pauline.
00:50:07You never loved me.
00:50:09You just loved the brand.
00:50:10The name.
00:50:11The lifestyle.
00:50:11If it weren't for Michael, I would have never agreed to this marriage.
00:50:16I didn't want to hurt her.
00:50:18I just wanted her out of our lives.
00:50:20You wanted to ruin her.
00:50:22You're going to clear her name publicly.
00:50:25You're going to tell them everything you did.
00:50:28Or you walk away with nothing.
00:50:31No marriage, no money.
00:50:32They printed a retraction.
00:50:40Full page.
00:50:41Called the article slander.
00:50:43You're cleared.
00:50:45I don't understand what changed their minds.
00:50:48It just feels like a miracle.
00:50:51Well, sometimes miracles do happen.
00:50:53People are still cautious.
00:50:55But the truth's out now.
00:50:58They're listening again.
00:51:00Prove your ability to them.
00:51:02Tonight, we unveil a new line designed by Sylvia Wilkins.
00:51:27Wow.
00:51:28Thank you so much.
00:51:30Um, I was crushed.
00:51:37Humiliated.
00:51:38But I didn't hide this time.
00:51:40I chose to get up.
00:51:42And I designed my way out.
00:51:47Thank you so much to all of you for being here.
00:51:49And to everyone that still supports me today.
00:51:51It means the world to me.
00:51:52Miss Wilkins, we are so sorry.
00:52:14We owe you a huge apology.
00:52:15Dean Martinez, your boss.
00:52:19He fought like hell to clear your name.
00:52:21He even threatened to sue half of the press corps.
00:52:25What?
00:52:27Dean did all that for me?
00:52:30Ladies and gents, may I have your attention, please?
00:52:37I want to thank you all for being here tonight.
00:52:40I have one final announcement to make.
00:52:42I will be officially stepping down from my position as director of Sterling Designs.
00:52:47And effective immediately, I'm appointing our new creative lead.
00:52:53Someone whose work speaks for itself and whose integrity speaks even louder.
00:53:01Sylvia Wilkins.
00:53:03This was never about sacrifice.
00:53:11This was never about sacrifice.
00:53:33He left again, after doing everything for me.
00:53:46Mrs. Wilkins?
00:53:49Detective Parker, I decided to bring these to you personally.
00:53:55These documents clearly show Pauline orchestrated the smear campaign.
00:53:59She's the one behind it all.
00:54:01Wait, what is this?
00:54:04That's some leftover evidence in her apartment.
00:54:07We're not sure what it's related to.
00:54:10But if it's useful, you're more than welcome to take it.
00:54:16Good luck.
00:54:21Wait, isn't this lab right next to Jacobs University?
00:54:31You said the lab name is...
00:54:36Sylvia, that clinic doesn't even do DNA paternity testing.
00:54:39And we have no record of a request under Dean's name.
00:54:43Okay, so what does that mean?
00:54:44It means the documents are fake.
00:54:50It was all a lie.
00:54:51I have to find him.
00:54:53Before it's too late.
00:54:53I heard you quit your job and handed everything over to Sylvia.
00:55:03What a ridiculous rumor.
00:55:05It's true.
00:55:06You quit?
00:55:07Are you insane?
00:55:13Nothing's changed.
00:55:14We're still getting married.
00:55:15Bullshit.
00:55:16Without your job, without your salary, you mean nothing to me.
00:55:20How dare you just quit?
00:55:22I made my own decision.
00:55:24And I made mine too.
00:55:25We are not getting married.
00:55:27And you will provide financial support for me and Michael for the rest of our lives.
00:55:32Dean.
00:55:32Dean.
00:55:32This DNA test?
00:55:38Look, it's fake.
00:55:40Michael isn't your son.
00:55:41Of course Michael's his son.
00:55:44Stop lying through your teeth just to drag him back.
00:55:46Don't listen to her, Dean.
00:55:47I went there and I checked.
00:55:49That lab doesn't even do paternity tests.
00:55:53That document is fake.
00:55:56Michael isn't my son?
00:56:00Oh, hey.
00:56:01Hey.
00:56:02Are you okay?
00:56:09Hey.
00:56:13Dean.
00:56:17What happened?
00:56:20You're okay.
00:56:22Everything's over.
00:56:23What?
00:56:24Pauline's ex.
00:56:26He's, um, he's a criminal.
00:56:28He's in jail now, but he's, um, Michael's his son.
00:56:31Pauline ran away.
00:56:34She, she used Michael to trap me.
00:56:38Wait.
00:56:39So, so where is Pauline?
00:56:41I have enough evidence to put her behind bars.
00:56:47She didn't even take Michael with her.
00:56:51To her, he means nothing.
00:56:54So, um, does this mean that you're single again?
00:56:58I, I guess, um, I guess that right now I'm trying to be what Michael needs.
00:57:06That's all that matters.
00:57:07You're not gonna try and find a good mother for him?
00:57:09Right now, there's no room for anyone else.
00:57:16Only you.
00:57:17I figured you'd never want me again.
00:57:20Why do you always have to carry everything alone?
00:57:24You cleared my name.
00:57:25You quit your job for me.
00:57:29Because I love you.
00:57:30I don't need a reason to protect you.
00:57:33I just don't want to drag you into my mess.
00:57:36You're such a fool.
00:57:37Oh, hey, Sylvia, you, you're burning up.
00:57:55Because I'm biting more than just lies.
00:58:06Oh.
00:58:07Jacob helped you with the DNA test?
00:58:10Yeah, he, um, he helped me with the investigation.
00:58:14He's a nice guy.
00:58:16Yeah, he is.
00:58:17I guess he's not the right person for you.
00:58:21He has barely dated.
00:58:22Come on.
00:58:24Jacob and I are just friends.
00:58:27Plus, I never got jealous of Pauline.
00:58:31Yeah, I was reckless with her once.
00:58:35Quickly realized she's not the one.
00:58:37You are the only woman I've ever really loved.
