00:00What are you doing here?
00:21I'm sorry, I have no choice.
00:30Hey, stop!
00:32I can't.
00:38Are you out of your mind?
00:40No, I beg you, help me.
00:41Help me, I beg you.
00:42I've been forced into a blind marriage.
00:45No, no, please.
00:49No, no, help.
00:51Help me.
00:54Please, please, he wants to take me away.
00:56No, Diana, he doesn't.
01:01How do you know my name?
01:03Because I'm the one who's taking you.
01:05He's just the best man.
01:07So, it's you I'm supposed to marry?
01:10You got into the wrong car, Diana.
01:13I'll never, I'll never be yours.
01:15I'll never be yours!
01:17She seems like a really headstrong.
01:20I know how to change your mind.
01:22I know how to change your mind.
01:26No, it's up!
01:32It's up, stop!
01:34That's me!
01:36I won't lay the finger on you.
01:38Then, then why did you bring me to your bedroom?
01:41This is your bedroom.
01:42You will live here, separate from me.
01:45No, no, no.
01:46No matter where you run, I will always find you.
01:54Change your clothes.
01:59I'll be waiting in the living room.
02:08I was caught in the drop of a cruel and powerful beast.
02:13Not knowing what game he was playing.
02:16Mom!
02:22Mom, please save me!
02:24I can't.
02:26What?
02:27Mom!
02:30After the wedding, your family business and mine will become one.
02:34Everyone wins.
02:37Did you hear him?
02:38Or did he spill time?
02:39You have to sign it yourself.
02:42So that another wedding doesn't fall apart like today.
02:45No!
02:45No!
02:46Don't be a child, Diana.
02:48Think about the family.
02:49Like you thought of me.
02:51I'm not the only one who wasted all our money after that diet.
03:01Sign it.
03:02Or never call me mother again.
03:05No!
03:06Mom, I'm so sorry.
03:27After all this, are we supposed to pretend to have a warm family dinner?
03:44We are not a family.
03:45We are not a family.
03:48And I don't want you here when I have breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
03:53No wonder you couldn't find a bride like normal people.
03:57You're impossible to love.
03:58You're a hotty monster.
03:59And you're a hotty monster.
04:00You're a hotty monster.
04:01You're a hotty monster.
04:02You're a hotty monster.
04:03You're a hotty monster.
04:04And you are a spoiled, bankrupt princess.
04:08Enjoy your meal, honey.
04:13Where are you going?
04:23Where are you going?
04:25Where are you going?
04:29We are not done talking.
04:31You are forbidden from entering this room.
04:34What?
04:34Another restriction?
04:36Yes.
04:37Go to your room.
04:38Now.
04:39I don't want to see you near this door.
04:41I don't want to see you either.
04:43Ever.
04:47What is hiding in there?
04:50Maybe.
04:51Just maybe.
04:53His secrets are the key to my freedom.
04:56This house was cold and foreign, just like its owner.
05:04The days spent all alone were killing me.
05:08I felt like a ghost.
05:12Forced to wander a castle where no one could see me.
05:18Why did he choose me?
05:22Just to ignore me?
05:26Why?
05:40Why?
06:14And who are you?
06:33Diana, the fancy of the house owner. And you?
06:37Oh, well, I'm the former owner. His father.
06:42We never mentioned you.
06:44But my son is a monster. He left me here as if he's waiting for me to die.
06:52I'm so sorry.
06:53No, no, no, no. I'm sorry for you, young lady.
06:56You have no idea what you've gotten yourself into.
06:59Run! If you can still run!
07:01If he could be so cruel to his own father, what would he do to me?
07:18Dinner is ready.
07:20What is he up to?
07:22You said you didn't want to eat with me.
07:24I still don't. It's all for you.
07:35Do you like it?
07:39What kind of stupid joke is this?
07:41Go ahead.
07:47Take whatever you want.
07:49Thanks.
07:49But I'm on a diet.
07:55Don't you like diamonds?
07:57Then what do you like?
07:58Tell me everything about you.
08:00You avoid me.
08:01But now you suddenly need to know everything.
08:05Are you bipolar?
08:07I said talk.
08:09Maybe you should explain why you abandoned your sick father to die.
08:13I told you not to go into that room.
08:15Don't I have a right to know who I'm marrying?
08:18You drive me crazy.
08:19You drive me mad.
08:20Here, entertain yourself.
08:28Tomorrow the driver will take you out.
08:30Buy yourself a gift.
08:36He was an imparentable fortress.
08:39But at that moment, I had a plan on how to conquer him.
08:50Camila, I'm hungry.
08:54Dinner is ready.
08:56Diana, did you buy yourself a little nice trinket?
09:01Yeah.
09:03For you.
09:05I noticed you are an old simple watch.
09:09Strange for a millionaire.
09:10Return it.
09:23You were supposed to buy something for yourself.
09:26No.
09:27If you want me to have something,
09:30then buy it for me yourself.
09:32That's what couples do.
09:35We are not a couple.
09:43Start behaving like the fiancée of a millionaire.
09:47That was the last straw.
09:49He wanted to change me?
09:51Fine.
09:52Now we would play by my rules.
09:54What the hell is this?
10:20It's my birthday, Val.
10:22And if you actually cared, you'd know that.
10:26Wait.
10:26Don't touch me.
10:28I'm just trying to act like a millionaire's fiancée.
10:31Isn't that what you wanted?
10:34Then watch.
10:44What if you see her?
10:46Just a pretty face.
10:49I heard her family paid off their debts with her.
10:52Really?
10:53Yeah.
10:54I didn't believe it.
10:55Shall we do a scream super worthless?
10:59Oh, I think she heard us.
11:01Let's go.
11:01Let's go.
11:02I was at a bowl of monsters, and the worst one was my fiancée.
11:14I had a choice.
11:15I had a choice.
11:17Run from humiliation or strike back.
11:21Can you help me?
11:32Can you help me?
11:40Taito.
11:41What are you doing?
11:46Isn't this what you want, huh?
11:48Don't play innocent.
11:51Let's have some fun.
11:53Let me go.
11:54How much did you pay for you?
11:55I could double it, huh?
11:57You bunch of parasites.
12:03Get lost.
12:05The party's over.
12:28I'm so sorry.
12:34I did it on purpose.
12:36I wanted to make you angry.
12:39You succeeded.
12:40When I was a child, my father would always bring me a cuckoo, and I was upset.
12:51My mother did the same.
12:54You smiled.
12:56At the first time.
12:59And mentioned your mother.
13:00This belonged to my mother.
13:13Amethyst is a protective stone.
13:17Happy birthday, Diana.
13:23It will protect you when I'm not around.
13:27But you'll always be around, right?
13:30You're my future husband.
13:38No, please, don't leave me.
13:41Not now.
13:48Dance with me.
13:54He remained cold like a mountain.
13:57But tonight, I realized he was my mountain.
14:03My shield against every storm.
14:13Well...
14:13Why did you choose me?
14:18I didn't choose you.
14:21Of course.
14:22I'm worthless.
14:23You're priceless.
14:24No.
14:26You're priceless.
14:30I don't believe you.
14:32I shouldn't have done that.
14:45I'm sorry.
14:47What's with that?
14:49He lifts me to the heavens where my heart touches the sky.
14:53Then...
14:54Shows me back into the abyss.
14:56I brought you coffee, and I wanted to talk.
15:09I don't drink coffee.
15:11And don't come near my room again.
15:18What?
15:20There's one...
15:22Two...
15:23Yes.
15:24And this time, you will regret it if you disobey me.
15:27I wasn't afraid of him.
15:32But I was afraid of being left in the dark about his secrets.
15:36I could no longer live surrounded by mysteries.
15:44Hmm.
15:45The beauty visits the old man again.
15:48Hmm.
15:49What's your plan, young lady?
15:59I just want to talk about your son.
16:04He keeps hiding things from me.
16:07What's his secret?
16:08Well, the fact is, he is, in a way, well, a punishment.
16:22He is my punishment.
16:25My greatest sin.
16:29A secret that is killing me.
16:33What are you talking about?
16:35Well, my son is a mirror of my youth.
16:40Tall, brown eyes.
16:44No, no, your son has blue eyes.
16:47No, dear.
16:48You don't even know who you are marrying.
16:53And...
16:53And suddenly, I realized...
16:57Wait!
16:59There were no photos of Will in this house.
17:02Who was he?
17:03I had something to tell you.
17:27That's a different person.
17:29My fancy wasn't in any of the photos.
17:36I didn't even know who I was getting married to.
17:44So you didn't listen to me, after all.
17:47Tell me!
17:48Tell me, who the hell are you?
17:50It doesn't matter.
17:52He's already here.
17:55Who?
17:56Sorry for the theatrics, darling.
18:02I'm Carl.
18:04Your real fiancé.
18:17Him?
18:18Just my servant.
18:25Who was supposed to protect you.
18:29After all this, are we supposed to pretend to have a warm family dinner?
18:34We are not a family.
18:35I noticed you are an old, simple watch.
18:39That's strange for a millionaire.
18:41If you want me to have something, then buy it for me yourself.
18:46That's what couples do.
18:49We are not a couple.
18:52When did you choose me?
18:53I didn't choose yet.
18:59It was all a lie, right when I finally started to believe that we could be together.
19:05That I could actually be happy with him.
19:08And then, the truth ruined everything.
19:15How could I have believed him?
19:17How could I have been so blind?
19:20I was doomed from the start.
19:23So, this was all about money.
19:25No, Diana, I can explain.
19:30No need for explanations.
19:33Just leave me.
19:34Leave me with my...
19:37You, fiancé.
19:41Come on.
19:42I fell in love with the man who just betrayed me.
19:49But I had no idea that the secrets of this family would be my ticket to hell.
19:59I will make your life a paradise.
20:12Am I finally perfect?
20:27You're not my perfect bride.
20:29Which one?
20:31Honey?
20:32The wedding's off.
20:35No.
20:37You can't run away from me.
20:38Oh, well.
20:39Then I'll kiss one of your servants.
20:41What?
20:42Ma'am?
20:58Everything's ready for the wedding, dummy.
21:00There's nothing you can do about it.
21:02I wouldn't be so sure about that.
21:04Have you lost your mind?
21:13If you can't shit on me with a servant, then I can too.
21:15You filthy...
21:17What the hell do you think you're doing?
21:19You're going to ruin your beautiful bride's makeup.
21:22Give me 15 minutes and she'll be ready to walk down the aisle to you.
21:26That's my servant, because everything here belongs to me, including you.
21:36Just give me 15 minutes.
21:37Fine.
21:41I'm going to put on my tuxedo, get her dressed.
21:43We still have a wedding photo shoot to do.
21:45You're a good dog for your master, but I'm not going to listen to you.
22:04You're a monster as he is.
22:12I will prove to you that you're mistaken.
22:14I know it seems like the biggest idiotic mistake to trust someone who serves a monster, and yet a part of me wanted to believe him.
22:27And you think I'll trust you?
22:32Undoubtedly, because I'm in love with you, ma'am.
22:39You think only you can kiss me without permission?
22:42I'm... I'm confused.
22:44What's going on?
22:45I can't explain everything now, especially because I have to abduct you.
22:49Why are we here?
22:57Because this is the only place where Carl refuses to stick his nose.
23:06What are you doing?
23:07This is everything I've earned during my years working for Carl.
23:11Now it's yours.
23:12But why?
23:14It's too late for me.
23:16But this money should be enough for you to start a new life.
23:18Do you understand?
23:20There is no escape from this mansion.
23:23There is one way, but you have to put on the wedding dress.
23:27Are you kidding me?
23:28Are you still one to marry me off to him?
23:31Listen to me carefully.
23:32This is your only chance.
23:34Your salvation lies in Carl's hands.
23:37Remember that.
23:44Will?
23:45Where's my bride?
23:46Sir.
23:49She...
23:50I'm here.
23:53Sorry about this morning, darling.
23:55I got a bit too nervous about the wedding.
23:58It seems that I have tamed not only the finest stallion,
24:01but also the best bride.
24:04Will, call the photographer.
24:05Your trophy would look even better on your steven.
24:13Damn.
24:28Damn.
24:28How does she know how to ride a horse?
24:40Good thing that at least someone here obeys me.
24:46She won't escape.
24:48Shit.
25:04If that witch survives,
25:06take her back to the house.
25:08Diana.
25:16Diana.
25:16Diana.
25:25So, when is the wedding finally starting?
25:28I don't know.
25:29Maybe it won't happen at all.
25:31Let me guess.
25:32Maybe the girl couldn't bear the thought
25:36spending her life with you and ran away.
25:40Shut up.
25:41That silly girl's entirely to blame.
25:43And who's to blame for you being a monster?
25:46If I were a monster,
25:53you had been dying out on the street a long time ago.
25:57Not in my house.
25:58This is my house.
26:00As long as I'm alive and I own your assets.
26:06If you want to live here until the end,
26:13you'd better not anger me.
26:16Just as always,
26:17our saintly will.
26:20Do you have to save everyone?
26:22The doctor has examined Diana.
26:24She wants to talk to you.
26:26Well, when will she be able to get married?
26:41After such a fall,
26:42she might never be able to stand again.
26:45Damn witch.
26:46The wedding has to happen now.
26:47I'll only be able to examine her again in a few days.
26:53Sir, we need to cancel the wedding.
26:55Nah, that's not going to happen.
26:58You witch,
26:59whether you're in a wheelchair or crawling,
27:03you'll be with me at the altar.
27:06Understand, darling?
27:07Sir, I beg you, please.
27:10Don't do this.
27:12Do you feel sorry, Va?
27:14As a servant, you should know best.
27:17Bad things get tossed out.
27:20She's not a thing.
27:21I don't need another cripple in my house.
27:26Take care of her.
27:27I heard everything.
27:42Diana,
27:43I will get you out of here.
27:46Just say yes.
27:48No.
27:49I'm going to marry Carl.
27:52He will destroy you.
27:53At least I'll save my family from bankruptcy.
27:56Think about yourself.
27:58I don't care anymore.
28:00No one needs someone like me.
28:02I need you.
28:05He was telling the truth.
28:07His feelings for me were real,
28:10painful,
28:11and broken,
28:12just like I know was.
28:14And he had no idea
28:16that it would destroy him, too.
28:30Yet the days became a kaleidoscope of pain.
28:34And every time I lost faith,
28:37he was right there.
28:40No, I'm below.
28:41No, I'm not going anywhere.
28:46He saved me.
28:48Yet in doing so,
28:49he was destroying his own life.
28:52Bound to me as I was bound to this bad.
28:55I had to do something
28:56to set him free.
29:06Thank you for taking such good care of me.
29:08It's the least I can do for you.
29:10Please, forgive me.
29:14Don't blame yourself.
29:16You're not at fault.
29:19I once dreamed of dancing
29:20on the world's finest ocean beaches
29:24until down.
29:28Now that dream
29:29feels lost.
29:32Close your eyes
29:36and count to one hundred.
29:38One hundred.
29:45Everything I'm searching for
29:48Everything I want and more
29:53My heart was wild with love.
30:15Yet I knew that
30:18this dance
30:19would be our last.
30:23And Will has no idea.
30:32I love you, Diana.
30:34Against all odds,
30:35I will fulfill
30:36every one of your wishes.
30:40Carl!
30:42Carl!
30:45Did you hear everything?
30:47You see, Carl,
30:48your so-called
30:49loyal servant
30:50isn't so loyal
30:51like I told you.
30:54You jerk.
30:55Did you really believe
30:56that a pathetic loser
30:57like you
30:57could take my place?
30:59She's mine.
31:00She will never be yours.
31:06What are you doing?
31:08You must forget about me.
31:09Forever.
31:14In that moment,
31:16I betrayed the one I loved
31:18and destroyed us both.
31:30Oh, my God!
31:45Who is this?
31:48Sir?
31:48Shall we have some fun?
31:50No, please.
31:51Right on these sheets.
31:52You can wear one of my wife's dresses.
31:54She has no need for them,
31:56but they would suit you.
31:57Sir,
31:58dresses will never fit me again.
32:00How much...
32:03How much will it take
32:05for you to rid yourself
32:06of this trouble?
32:07Sir,
32:08I don't want to do this, please.
32:10I will never acknowledge
32:11this child.
32:12Get out of my house!
32:13No, please.
32:14I need his job.
32:15I need his for survival.
32:16Well, I no longer need you.
32:19Carl!
32:21You can't really do this.
32:24Have you forgotten
32:25how you used to fool around
32:27with a maid
32:27when you were young?
32:28I'm sick of all of you.
32:31After the wedding,
32:32I'll get rid of the bride
32:33and you.
32:33They are very beautiful.
32:49Why did you bury yourself?
32:58Diana,
32:59I know there is strength
33:00within you
33:01to get back on your feet.
33:02For what?
33:04To walk down the aisle
33:05to your son,
33:06that monster?
33:06No.
33:08Walk towards the one
33:09you truly love.
33:10It's impossible.
33:12Nothing can change.
33:14My secret will change
33:15everyone's fate.
33:19What are you talking about?
33:20I will tell you everything
33:22once you get on your feet again.
33:24But what if I can't?
33:25Sunshine,
33:26but what else is worth fighting for
33:30if not love?
33:34All I could do
33:36was believe that I had a chance.
33:39And from the day on,
33:41I repeated Philip's words to myself.
33:45Standing on your own to fit
33:47is the only way
33:49to reclaim love.
33:50Every day
33:52I fought against myself.
33:59You smiled
34:00for the first time.
34:03I just want to breathe again
34:09well,
34:22why did you choose me?
34:25I didn't choose you.
34:27Of course.
34:29You're worthless.
34:30No.
34:31You're priceless.
34:33Don't want to need someone like me.
34:42I need you.
34:55Now we have something to celebrate.
34:57Yeah.
34:58But don't run away.
35:00I'll be right back.
35:03I did it.
35:05In that moment,
35:07I wished that Will
35:08was there with me.
35:10But every step
35:12filled me with the hope
35:14of bringing him back.
35:22Thank you, Father,
35:24for the surprise.
35:27It looks like we need to stop
35:29preparing for the wedding.
35:31Now you'll do what we agreed on.
35:33And you'll bring
35:34Willy back home.
35:36And I'll conduct your wedding.
35:38Fine.
35:38You've got it.
35:39But I don't want to delay any longer.
35:42The wedding will be tomorrow.
35:46You lied to me.
