00:00The movie begins with the panicked voice of a man crying while calling the police,
00:05asking for help as he enters a messy house, full of bloodstains and signs of struggle.
00:11There, he informs the 112 operator that his wife has disappeared.
00:16In a flashback that takes place six weeks earlier, we see that this man, Edward, is married to Jade and they have a daughter.
00:23He is a surgeon, passionate about saving lives, while his wife, Jade, works as a marketing consultant.
00:31Due to the success of her campaigns, a co-worker invites her to an award night, anticipating that she will probably win a prize.
00:39Jade accepts the invitation.
00:41That same day, after work, she returns home accompanied by her sister, Lee, to show her the red dress she plans to wear to the gala.
00:48We see that the husband only pretends to be enthusiastic when hearing about the dress and the event.
00:55However, as soon as Lee leaves to take care of the couple's daughter, Edward immediately drops the friendly appearance and adopts a cold expression.
01:04Meanwhile, Jade, cheerful, puts on makeup and wears the red dress, but when she turns to admire herself in the mirror, she realizes it is damaged with several cuts.
01:14Curiously, she is not surprised, as if she expected it, as if it were something usual.
01:20Suddenly, her husband appears by her side to comfort her about the ruined dress, and we discover that he was the one who destroyed it.
01:28At that moment, Jade accepts his apologies without hesitation and decides to wear another dress.
01:34He loves the idea and comments that the red dress made her look like a slut.
01:39Upon hearing that, she holds back tears and starts getting ready with other clothes.

02:00What are you waiting for to be part of this story?
02:03At the award party, Jade wears an outdated dress to collect the trophy, with her husband by her side.
02:08During the speech, she thanks her teammates for their contributions and hugs them one by one.
02:15Back at home, Edward asks about one of the team members and why she thanked him in a special way.
02:20She explains that he contributed the most to the project.
02:24But Edward feels humiliated by the explanation and suddenly grabs her and throws her onto the bed.
02:30Afterwards, Jade tries to clarify the misunderstanding, but he refuses to listen, saying she is ungrateful.
02:37Then, he violently throws her against the wall, causing her to hit her head against a picture frame.
02:43Next, he strangles her and threatens her to never do that again.
02:47The next morning, she remains lying down with a wound on her head.
02:51Later, he enters the room playing a romantic song trying to cheer her up, but she ignores him.
02:57Then, he sits beside her to hug her.
03:00Later, during breakfast with the daughter, the girl compliments the flowers on the table.
03:05Edward says he bought them for Jade.
03:08After the meal, the girl goes off to play, leaving Edward alone with Jade.
03:13Then, he asks her about her job.
03:16Jade replies that she plans to work from home for a few days before returning to the office.
03:21Suddenly, he gets irritated and demands that she quit her job to become a housewife.
03:27Saying she doesn't need to earn money.
03:29If she wants something, she should ask him, and he'll give it to her.
03:34During the argument, he receives a call from the hospital and drops the topic to go perform surgery.
03:40Without them knowing, the daughter has heard the entire fight.
03:44So, when Jade returns to the room, she hears a muffled cry from there.
03:49She goes to see what's wrong, and as she lays the girl down, the child reveals that she knows what's happening at home.
03:56Jade is surprised.
03:58The next day, as she gets ready to leave, Edward reminds Jade that she must quit her job, saying he doesn't want to see her with other men again.
04:07And as soon as he walks out the door, she runs to the bedroom, grabs a hidden box with money, and starts packing to flee with her daughter.
04:15She drags the luggage to the door and watches her husband get into the car and drive off.
04:21Once she's sure he's gone, she goes back to prepare more things, but he suddenly returns, saying he forgot his phone.
04:29At his unexpected return, she tenses up, fearing she'll be discovered.
04:35Fortunately, he grabs the phone and leaves again without seeing the suitcase by the door.
04:39Immediately after he leaves, Jade grabs her daughter and escapes to her sister's house.
04:46That night, Edward returns home and finds a note informing him of the escape.
04:51He tries calling several times, but Jade ignores all the calls, which enrages him.
04:58The next day, Jade returns to work but finds her ex-husband waiting for her with flowers.
05:03However, she is not moved and asks him to leave.
05:07Edward tries to convince her to come home with their daughter, but she refuses.
05:12During the argument, a co-worker calls her to a meeting, and Jade walks away.
05:17Seeing how the co-worker interacts with her, Edward becomes filled with rage and throws the flowers in the trash before leaving.
05:25At the end of the workday, as Jade says goodbye to the co-worker and heads to her car, she sees her ex-husband waiting for her.
05:33He says he won't sign the divorce papers and accuses her of being involved with her co-worker.
05:39She tries to walk away, but he corners her against the car.
05:42Jade threatens him with a restraining order, but he replies that no one would believe her over a well-known doctor and reminds her of her history of depression.
05:51She tells him she's not coming back and doesn't need his signature to get divorced, that it's not 1930 and she can do it through the court without his consent.
06:01But when she tries to get into the car, he stops her and says he'd rather cut her into a million pieces than let her get divorced.
06:09Five weeks later, Jade celebrates the success of the divorce with her sister.
06:12That night, while taking out the trash, she sees a strange car in the neighborhood and tries to get closer to identify the driver, but the vehicle drives off before she can see him.
06:23The next day, she takes her daughter to a school event and runs into Edward, now her ex-husband, who introduces her to his new girlfriend.
06:31When the woman walks away to talk to other guests, Edward says he's leaving the state for a medical conference, and since he'll be away for a few weeks, he asks to spend a day with their daughter.
06:41Jade agrees.
06:43Later, she says goodbye to her co-workers and walks to her car.
06:47Suddenly, she drops a key on the ground.
06:50As she bends down to pick it up, she notices a strange man approaching with a gun.
06:54However, just as he's about to shoot, he sees someone and quickly walks away.
06:59It turns out a co-worker had followed her to talk, but Jade, scared, simply gets in the car and drives home to check on her daughter and sister.
07:07Not finding anyone, she panics and calls her ex-husband, accusing him.
07:12But he just says he's just arrived in another state for the conference and has nothing to do with it.
07:18After hanging up, Jade finds a message from her sister saying she took the girl to the library.
07:23Relieved, Jade goes to the police station to report the incident, but as she walks in, she runs into the police chief, who happens to be her ex-husband's best friend.
07:32What are you doing here, Jade? he asks, bringing up her ex-husband and reminding her of the close friendship they have.
07:39Hearing all that, Jade changes her mind and decides not to file the report, since the ex's best friend turns out to be the police chief.
07:47That night, she vents to her sister about the years of abuse she suffered at the hands of her ex-husband and says she believes he is trying to kill her.
07:56She then reveals the incident with the armed man.
07:58However, despite suspecting that her ex wants to murder her, she has no evidence to present to the police.
08:06And if she reports him without proof, he could manipulate the situation, make her look like an unstable woman, and also count on the defense of his best friend, the chief of police.
08:17Upon hearing all this, the sister says the best evidence they could obtain would be a direct confession from Edward.
08:24That night, before going to sleep, Jade reflects on her sister's words and decides to put a plan in motion.
08:32The next day, she asks her sister to take her daughter to the park.
08:36Meanwhile, she stays home alone to lure the killer, as she believes that since he failed in the parking lot, he will surely come for her as soon as possible.
08:44And while that happens, Edward gives a speech at a medical conference, talking about his goal of saving human lives.
08:52Meanwhile, the killer arrives at Jade's house and loads his weapon before going out to eliminate her.
08:59The scene suddenly changes and shows Jade in a fight with someone, leaving bloodstains all over the house.
09:05And after the conference, Edward receives a text message from the killer, informing him that the job has been done.
09:12So, he immediately returns to his state and heads to Jade's house.
09:17Upon entering, he finds blood everywhere and clear signs of a struggle, so he calls 911 to report the situation and the fact that Jade has disappeared.
09:27Sometime later, Lee and her daughter return from the park and find him sitting at the door.
09:32Then, he informs Lee about what happened and takes the girl.
09:37Lee, shocked to learn about Jade's disappearance, tries to call her, but the phone is out of service.
09:43Meanwhile, Edward calls the killer and orders him to get rid of Jade's body before the police start investigating.
09:50But the killer seems worried.
09:52And then we discover that Jade had faked the crime scene, simulating a fight and spreading blood that she herself caused by cutting her hands.
10:00Then, she managed to escape before the killer entered to eliminate her.
10:05Thus, now hidden in a safe place, she plans to make her ex-husband confess to the attempted murder.
10:12Meanwhile, Edward receives a message from an unknown number.
10:15When he opens it, he is shocked to see a video from the day of his wedding to Jade.
10:20However, before he can analyze the video in more detail, the doorbell rings.
10:25It's two detectives.
10:27There, he tells them how he discovered his wife's disappearance and lies, saying that she had been suffering from severe depression in the days leading up to the divorce.
10:36The detectives then reveal that Jade's sister had contacted them to say that he was abusive during the marriage and had hired a hitman to kill her.
10:46But, of course, Edward denies everything and claims that Jade's sister suffers from bipolar disorder.
10:52And, with convincing words, he manages to manipulate the two detectives who end the interrogation session.
10:59As soon as they leave, Edward watches the wedding video sent to his phone again and tries to figure out who might have sent it to him.
11:07Meanwhile, Jade, in her hiding place, watches the news where a reporter talks about the case.
11:13The journalist says that Jade disappeared after a hitman broke into her home.
11:17Upon seeing the news, Jade writes a wedding anniversary card and goes to her ex-husband's workplace, intending to secretly leave it in his car.
11:27However, upon seeing him get out of the vehicle, the hired killer approaches, opens the car door, and takes out an envelope full of money before walking away.
11:37Meanwhile, Edward, attending to a patient at the hospital, receives a call from a restaurant informing him about a special reservation made by his wife.
11:46This leaves him both surprised and confused.
11:50For her part, Jade secretly follows the hitman to his hideout and watches him through the window.
11:56From there, she sees him counting the money and hears him call Edward to deceive him, telling him that he got rid of her body, received the payment, and that everything is now taken care of.
12:07After that, Edward goes to the restaurant and the waiter informs him that his ex-wife arranged a special dinner and a surprise.
12:14Sitting at the reserved table, he finds a card with Jade's handwriting wishing him a happy wedding anniversary.
12:22This makes him start doubting whether she is really dead.
12:26He then rushes out of the restaurant and runs home to check his secret phone.
12:30There, he listens to a voicemail from the hitman confirming that he had eliminated Jade, received the money, and taken care of everything, and this leaves him even more confused.
12:41The next day, he visits Jade's sister and asks her about the dinner reservation, but she orders him to leave and slams the door in his face, telling him,
12:50I'll take you out myself if you show up here again.
12:54Meanwhile, Jade sneaks into the hitman's hideout and carefully leaves a ring box in a visible spot.
12:59As she leaves, she notices some letters on the table, and upon checking them, she finds a document with the full name of the killer.
13:07She then returns home to investigate him and discovers that he will be on patrol that night, and when the killer arrives at his house, he sees the little ring box on the table.
13:18The next day, Jade enters her ex-husband's house and changes the wallpaper on his laptop.
13:24Then, she observes the house and realizes that all her clothes have disappeared from the closet.
13:31At the same time, Edward is at the hospital, giving a presentation to a group of doctors.
13:36And when he connects his laptop to the projector, a distorted image of his wife appears, which makes everyone uncomfortable.
13:44He tries to change it, but can't.
13:46That night, when he gets home, Edward finds his wife's clothes scattered all over the house.
13:51Upon entering the bedroom, he is shocked to see the red dress on the bed.
13:57And in the closet, all of Jade's old clothes have been put back.
14:01Seeing this, he realizes that his wife is still alive and runs to the killer's hideout to demand proof of her death.
14:08Then, the killer hands him the ring and assures him that he eliminated her personally.
14:14And upon seeing the ring, Edward convinces himself that she might really be dead, telling himself so.
14:20He then leaves, unaware that Jade had secretly followed him to the hideout.
14:26However, as she tries to get away, Jade bumps into something and causes a loud noise.
14:31The killer hears it, looks out the window, and sees her escaping.
14:35He then chases her with a gun, but she hits him with a gas cylinder and manages to flee to her car.
14:42Afterwards, she calls the parole officers to report that the killer is outside his permitted zone.
14:47Then, Jade visits a park at midnight, disguised to look dead, and takes pictures of the scene.
14:54Meanwhile, Edward, on his way to his car, sees a woman who looks a lot like his ex-wife and quickly strangles her.
15:02But he immediately realizes it was his new girlfriend.
15:06He tries to apologize, but the woman leaves.
15:09Shortly after, Edward receives a call from the police station asking him to come in immediately.
15:14There, the detectives show him a photo they received from an anonymous number, showing his ex-wife's injured arm.
15:22And when he asks about that number, the police tell him it can't be traced.
15:26Then, they show him other photos sent by the same anonymous sender, all suggesting that his ex-wife is dead.
15:34Edward pretends to be affected by the images and simply leaves.
15:37The next day, at home, while reflecting on all the strange events, his daughter asks him for some juice.
15:44And as he serves it, his hands start to tremble, spilling the liquid on the table.
15:50Every time he tries to hold something, his hands shake due to the psychological trauma caused by all the strange events.
15:57This leads him to drink excessively.
16:00Later, the trembling affects him during a surgery, endangering a patient's life.
16:05Because of this, his boss forces him to temporarily stop performing surgeries, but he insists on continuing.
16:13His boss then threatens to revoke his medical license if he doesn't comply.
16:18Meanwhile, Jade's sister receives a package with a handwritten letter from Jade, in which she says she's not dead.
16:25That night, Edward drinks until he nearly passes out and sees a report about a candlelight vigil in honor of his missing wife.
16:33Suddenly, the house's Bluetooth starts playing his wife's favorite song, which gives him goosebumps.
16:40Then, he begins to search the house for his wife's ghost.
16:44The door starts banging loudly, and he goes to close it, but hears his wife's voice calling him.
16:50Unable to find the source of the voice, he grabs a gun from the drawer and fires randomly throughout the house, gripped by panic.
16:58Minutes later, the police arrive because of the gunshots.
17:01His friend, who is the chief of police, tries to console him over his wife's loss, and tells him that his daughter will be placed under child protection.
17:11The next day, after visiting his daughter, Edward finds her favorite flowers, white petals, scattered on the floor,
17:17and breaks down crying, fearing that the ghost of his ex-wife is really haunting him.
17:22Later, on the day of the vigil, many people gather to pay tribute to Jade.
17:28Her sister gives a speech, while Edward watches.
17:31Suddenly, he thinks he sees Jade in the crowd and tries to chase her, but his police friend stops him.
17:38However, he manages to break free and goes in search of his wife's ghost.
17:42After the vigil, Jade's sister drives to meet with her, unaware that Edward is secretly following them.
17:49He follows her and sees Jade enter a hotel.
17:53After she leaves, Edward breaks into the room, finds her, and starts to strangle her in an attempt to eliminate her.
18:00But his police friend arrives suddenly, points a gun at him, and orders him to let her go.
18:06Edward is arrested and charged with attempted murder.
18:09The next day, Jade meets with her daughter and tells her that the nightmare is over and that they will now be happy together.
