Episode 22, Season 2 - Celeste and Steven Beard

When multimillionaire widower Steven Beard fell in love with the much younger Celeste Martinez, he thought he’d found a loving companion that he could spend his final days with.

However, once Celeste gets Steven’s ring on her finger, she realizes she’s won the lottery as she uses her new husband as her personal ATM.

And when she realizes her husband is worth more to her dead than alive, Celeste hatches a diabolical scheme that will destroy everyone in its path.
