Short filmTranscript
00:00:00For 25 years I was my husband's ghostwriter.
00:00:05I helped him become a best-selling author.
00:00:08But while I wrote page after page, he betrayed me.
00:00:13He was having an affair with another woman.
00:00:15And how did I find out?
00:00:17A kiss cam that caught them at a concert.
00:00:20He humiliated me in front of the whole world.
00:00:2425 years of marriage.
00:00:27Gone. Just like that.
00:00:33Have fun at the Real Play concert.
00:00:35I wish I could join you.
00:00:37Especially since tonight's our anniversary.
00:00:39It's a work thing, honey.
00:00:42Besides, you don't even like their music.
00:00:45Oh, actually, I do like-
00:00:46Honey, I gotta go.
00:00:48Can't wait for dinner. Make me something delicious.
00:00:51Okay, honey.
00:00:57Anne, Jonathan's new book is a masterpiece.
00:01:09If I were to guess, I'd say you probably had a pretty heavy part in writing the book.
00:01:13The least I could do is give you some credit, right?
00:01:15Henry, you know I don't like the spotlight.
00:01:17Plus, Jonathan's my husband.
00:01:19What's mine is his and vice versa.
00:01:21I've already prepared everything for Jonathan to take over at CU.
00:01:24Anne, why publishing your family business?
00:01:26I'm just looking over it on your behalf.
00:01:28We'll talk about this later.
00:01:30Gotta run, Henry.
00:01:31Have to call Jonathan to see what time he's coming home.
00:01:33That's weird. The concert should be over by now.
00:01:54Don't you want to answer your wife's call?
00:01:56She's so annoying.
00:01:58She cannot go a single day without calling to blab about some unimportant shit.
00:02:03Hang on, baby.
00:02:05Yes, honey.
00:02:07I just wanted to know if you'd be back soon. Dinner's almost ready.
00:02:11Okay, yes. I will be right home, honey.
00:02:14All right.
00:02:17When was the last time you fucked your wife, Jonathan?
00:02:22It has been years.
00:02:25I can't stand her body anymore.
00:02:27Especially now that I have someone like you.
00:02:30You better be telling the truth.
00:02:32Oh, I swear on my life.
00:02:34You are the only woman I know.
00:02:40Fuck!
00:02:42Okay.
00:02:43Either they are having an affair or just really, really shy.
00:02:46Why not?
00:02:47Okay, I got it. Baby, I'm gonna go.
00:02:48I'm gonna catch you later.
00:02:49Okay.
00:02:50But you better divorce her soon.
00:02:52I'm sick of this.
00:02:54Olivia, I need you to hurry home.
00:02:55I need you to cover me in front of mom in case something goes wrong.
00:02:57No, I'm gonna explain when I get home.
00:02:59Just hurry home.
00:03:04Hi, honey.
00:03:05You're back.
00:03:06And just in time, dinner's ready.
00:03:08How was the concert? Was it fun?
00:03:10No, not really. You know how these work things are.
00:03:12Mm-hmm.
00:03:13Well, maybe next time I should join you, then it'll be more fun.
00:03:16Oh, come on. Let me have your coat.
00:03:25Oh.
00:03:26Olivia called. She said she'll be back soon.
00:03:30Oh, my God. Wait.
00:03:32That looks just like famous author Jonathan Asher.
00:03:34No way. Isn't he married? Who's he with?
00:03:38Oh, shit.
00:03:39Honey, did you hear me?
00:03:42Huh? What?
00:03:43I'm sorry, honey. What did you say?
00:03:45Olivia and Ken, they're gonna be joining us for dinner.
00:03:47Okay, that's great, honey.
00:03:48I'm sorry, honey.
00:04:09He may not have taken me to that Real Play concert, but he got me this beautiful necklace. I've chosen a good man to marry.
00:04:16Hey, Dad. It's the big silver anniversary today, right? 25 years of marriage. Wow. Don't you think our amazing little housewife deserves a little something?
00:04:29Yes, of course.
00:04:31Anne, my angel, whatever you do, do not forget you're not just my wife. You're my whole life.
00:04:41You're my whole life.
00:04:46Thank you, my love.
00:04:47Hurry up and open it, Mom.
00:04:48A pen.
00:04:49Do you remember the last award ceremony I attended? I couldn't stop thinking about how much you've done for this family. So I picked up this pen in my hotel bed and I wrote about how much I missed you all night long.
00:05:07Wow. Dad, you're such a romantic.
00:05:10I noticed you write the same acknowledgement in every book to my most beloved Anne. Without you, none of this would be possible. You are my muse.
00:05:26Everyone writes acknowledgments. It's no big deal. What you need to learn, Ken, is that for a good wife, love is much more valuable than jewelry. Price, insignificant.
00:05:39You better not learn that from my dad. Look, I'm not some simple housewife that's gonna be satisfied with a hotel pen and a left note. I'm a career woman. And career women appreciate investment pieces.
00:05:52What's wrong with your mother? She's just being dramatic. Look, after all, she's only a housewife.
00:06:05Dad, allow me to raise a glass to you. Ever since you invited me to be your guest at your awards ceremony, I actually have a contract at a Fortune 500 company.
00:06:17Let me also congratulate you, Mr. Asher, to the next CEO of Roy Publishing.
00:06:27No, maybe he got that necklace for Olivia. I shouldn't be so quick to jump to conclusions.
00:06:34Anne, is it just me or does this look kind of like your husband?
00:06:37Is Jonathan cheating on me?
00:06:47No, you're looking for me.
00:06:48Anne, is it just me?
00:06:49You are.
00:06:50You're looking for me.
00:06:51No, you're looking for me.
00:06:52No, you're looking for me.
00:06:53I want me.
00:06:54I want me.
00:06:57No, you're looking for me.
00:07:02Lily Anne.
00:07:12You're looking for me.
00:07:13Lillianne, my muse. Happy anniversary. Every book I write is a declaration of my love for you. You deserve only the finest gold and gems to adorn your precious body.
00:07:26Lillianne. Lillianne.
00:07:31To my most beloved Anne.
00:07:34He was never talking about me. Who is this woman? How could you use the book that I wrote to proclaim your love for another woman?
00:07:43Oh, come on. What is wrong with you, woman?
00:07:52Is this the work you've been so busy with? Who the hell is Lillianne?
00:07:57Did you go through my things? This is an invasion of my privacy.
00:08:00Oh, you're really going to turn this back around on me when you are the one who brought evidence of your affair into our home?
00:08:05Lillianne and I are professional acquaintances. We discuss art and literature.
00:08:09Every book I write is a declaration of my love for you. I shall ensure that only the finest gold and gems adorn your precious body.
00:08:18That is a literary reference and that is something you would not understand.
00:08:22I suppose you're going to tell me that she finds it necessary to discuss your work dressed in lacy lingerie.
00:08:27You are. Anne, you're ruining our anniversary and I am not going to just sit here and listen to your insane accusations.
00:08:34I'll be in my study.
00:08:36No, you don't. No, you don't. You are going to stand there. You are going to explain everything to me.
00:08:43Mom, calm down. This is all a big misunderstanding.
00:08:46Okay, Lillianne is a good person. Her and dad have a professional relationship.
00:08:51You know her? You're going to defend some other woman?
00:08:55Mom, Lillianne is a literary agent at Roy Publishing House. Her and dad work together. It's her job.
00:09:01Look, I get it. You've been a stay-at-home mom my whole life. Obviously, you don't know how the publishing world works.
00:09:07Wait a second.
00:09:11How long have you known about them?
00:09:12Olivia, you're my daughter. I carried you inside of me for nine months. I gave up everything for you.
00:09:21And as thanks you've been helping your father hide his affair from me, let it go!
00:09:26Clearly, you watch too many soap operas and they build your head with crazy ideas.
00:09:30My own baby calling me crazy.
00:09:35Is that what you think, too? That I'm just some silly housewife with my head full of conspiracies?
00:09:40That I would stir up trouble for no reason?
00:09:42Well, it does seem like that's what ruined our anniversary.
00:09:46So, darling, maybe you should stick to the housework.
00:09:50Let us deal with the thinking.
00:09:52Stick to the housework.
00:09:54As if I haven't given up 25 years of my life for the both of you.
00:09:58To keep you happy and healthy and fed.
00:10:01Did those pants fold themselves and jump on into your drawer?
00:10:04Did those shoes shine themselves?
00:10:07Three meals a day for 25 years!
00:10:12These hands have been soaked in detergent and grease and filth!
00:10:17Every day you two come home and you kick up your feet just knowing everything will be cared for.
00:10:21That I have taken care of every little detail.
00:10:25But for me?
00:10:26For the past 25 years, I have worked around the clock like a goddamn maid!
00:10:31Have I ever gotten a break?
00:10:35Ever!
00:10:35So, first you're mad about some imaginary affair.
00:10:41Then you're mad about how you have chosen to spend your life.
00:10:47You're a stay-at-home mom, Anne.
00:10:49A housewife.
00:10:50Cooking, cleaning, raising the kids.
00:10:53That's the job!
00:10:54That's what you're supposed to do?
00:10:55What, you want us to give you a medal?
00:10:56You're right.
00:10:58I did choose this life.
00:11:00And I have done my best to live up to my duties as a wife.
00:11:03So shouldn't you live up to your duties as a husband?
00:11:07At the very least, you should be faithful in your marriage.
00:11:09One that should be faithful is the one that depends on the other's paycheck.
00:11:14My God.
00:11:15How could you say something so hurtful?
00:11:19You want to embarrass yourself?
00:11:21In front of your daughter?
00:11:23Her husband?
00:11:24For 25 years, I have been working my ass off.
00:11:31While you have been sitting here, indulging in a life of luxury.
00:11:35You should be grateful.
00:11:36Between the two of us, who should really be grateful?
00:11:39Have you forgotten who helped take you from a nameless writer to a best-selling author?
00:11:45Mom, I think you need to calm down.
00:11:48Oh, I'm calm.
00:11:50Your father's the one who needs to watch himself.
00:11:52Are you threatening me?
00:11:54I'm reminding you, I'm the one who wrote all of those books.
00:12:00Were you going to go out there?
00:12:02Tell the whole world you wrote my collected works?
00:12:04Who is going to believe a housewife?
00:12:07Especially one that's gone mad, which you clearly have.
00:12:10I'll just show them my manuscripts.
00:12:12All of them in my handwriting for all of your novels.
00:12:16The manuscripts.
00:12:18God, I bet that's something you keep locked up, safe and sound, huh?
00:12:21God forbid something should happen to the manuscripts.
00:12:25You.
00:12:27No.
00:12:27No, no, no, no.
00:12:28No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:12:37No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
00:13:07contracts would be canceled, and our entire family would take the hit.
00:13:11So this was all about your father becoming CEO.
00:13:15Wake up, Mom. This is the real world, not some soap opera.
00:13:19Why can't you just act like any other housewife and pretend it didn't happen?
00:13:24So why don't you just go and buy some clothes and get your fucking nails done?
00:13:30What are you trying to achieve by causing a scene like this?
00:13:37I want a divorce.
00:13:42I want a divorce.
00:13:45I don't want to be part of this traitorous family anymore.
00:13:48I'm drawing up the divorce papers. Soon you'll see who really provided for this family.
00:13:53Mom!
00:13:54Okay, let her go.
00:13:58Go ahead, see what the real world's all about.
00:14:00Two weeks time, she's gonna be back here begging me to take her back.
00:14:05Oh, I left some belongings in your suitcase.
00:14:10What do they look like?
00:14:12Ooh, they're red as flames.
00:14:17Soft to the touch.
00:14:18You need to hurry up over here and collect them.
00:14:22I'll only step foot in your house once I become your wife.
00:14:26You will be soon, honey.
00:14:27Have a little sneak preview in the meantime.
00:14:30Oh, my God. Baby, you look incredible.
00:14:40Years in advance for all that you promised me.
00:14:43Lillianne, my goddess, my muse.
00:14:49Miss Roy, Mr. Henry's office is over here.
00:15:09Babe, where'd you go?
00:15:10I just saw your wife walk into the CEO's office.

00:15:12What?

00:15:15What's going on?
00:15:16Henry, I came here today to ask you to stay on as CEO.
00:15:17You've led this company to become what it is.
00:15:18There's no reason for you to leave.
00:15:19Yeah, but without your father's mentorship, I never would have come this far.
00:15:20I promised him that I would look after you.
00:15:21Roy is always meant to have been your company.
00:15:22Your company.
00:15:23You're always supposed to have.
00:15:24As a fantastic company.

00:22:33so I was willing to try and save our marriage
00:22:38but you've already written it off
00:22:40Henry go ahead and announce his position as CEO
00:22:43but I will be adding one condition
00:22:45I'll be taking over as chairwoman again
00:22:47therefore
00:22:48any hiring that's done
00:22:50such as CEO
00:22:51will require my approval
00:22:53are you in such a hurry to kick me out?
00:22:58what a shame
00:22:59I was thinking about giving you all a second chance
00:23:03oh stop bluffing it
00:23:04your truth is
00:23:05you could come in here
00:23:05you could crawl
00:23:06beg me
00:23:08I'd never let you back in this house
00:23:10mom
00:23:11mom
00:23:11it's one thing to throw a tantrum at home
00:23:14but it's a different thing entirely
00:23:15to cause a scene at the company
00:23:17dad is a public figure
00:23:19you almost destroyed his career
00:23:21and you think he's gonna be willing to reconcile?
00:23:24exactly
00:23:24Anne
00:23:25you shouldn't have tried to expose Mr. Asher
00:23:28for using a ghost writer
00:23:29he might have let you stay
00:23:31and write more books for him
00:23:33Jonathan
00:23:35you know deep down inside
00:23:38that without me
00:23:38you will never write another word
00:23:40do you really think
00:23:43that I need to rely on writing for a living?
00:23:46soon the entire company
00:23:48will be mine
00:23:49so you really think
00:23:50that you'll be unstoppable
00:23:51once you're CEO?
00:23:53is that why you're in such a hurry
00:23:54to get rid of me?
00:23:55the faithful wife
00:23:56who stood by your side
00:23:58through thick and thin
00:24:00and trade me in for some
00:24:02shiny new toy?
00:24:04what or who I play with

00:24:18during the most pivotal moment of my career
00:24:20I mean how am I supposed to stay
00:24:22with such a vile woman by my side?

00:24:27I have never stabbed you in the back
00:24:29without me

00:24:33and not the next CEO of Roy Publishing
00:24:35your storytelling skills have
00:24:37really gone down the drain

00:25:03for having a thankless

00:26:56why they groomed him
00:26:57for all of these years?

00:27:05the CEO
00:27:06of Roy Publishing House
00:27:07he'll have stocks
00:27:09worth tens
00:27:11of millions
00:27:12millions of dollars
00:27:13and if he even gave half
00:27:15to a housewife like you

00:27:20all that money
00:27:21in the fire

00:35:58is coming here
00:35:59to congratulate

00:36:12as the next CEO
00:36:13oh
00:36:14my my my
00:36:16I think you're all
00:36:18mistaken
00:36:19you see the CEO
00:36:20is only coming here
00:36:22because the chairwoman
00:36:23asked him to
00:36:24Jonathan's appointment
00:36:26as CEO
00:36:26well ultimately
00:36:28that decision
00:36:29lies with her
00:36:30what chairwoman
00:36:32Lily
00:36:33does
00:36:33Roy Publishing House
00:36:35even have a chairwoman

00:37:08like do you even
00:37:09know what a chairwoman
00:37:10does
00:37:10she probably asked
00:37:12chat GPT
00:37:13and please
00:37:16you gotta stop
00:37:17flaunting your ignorance
00:37:18when we were younger
00:37:19we called it naivete
00:37:20but now that you're old
00:37:21and washed up
00:37:22and haggard
00:37:22it's just plain foolishness
00:37:24she probably read
00:37:27so many trashy novels
00:37:29she can't even
00:37:30keep up with reality anymore
00:37:31she's stuck
00:37:32in her own
00:37:33fantasy world
00:37:34that's what it is

00:42:28there was no active chairwoman
00:42:29but as of today

00:42:41including the CEO
00:42:43what?
00:42:48Henry
00:42:48I don't understand
00:42:49why the change of plans?
00:42:51where did this new
00:42:52chairwoman come from?
00:42:53I haven't heard a thing about her
00:42:55unless
00:42:56no
00:43:02that's impossible
00:43:05but there's no way
00:43:09but this is a joke
00:43:10a terrible one at that
00:43:12going by the looks
00:43:13on your faces
00:43:14you've already
00:43:15guessed who it is
00:43:17that's right
00:43:18Miss Anne Roy
00:43:19will be reinstated
00:43:20as the chairwoman
00:43:21of this company
00:43:23Madam Chairwoman
00:43:26Welcome back Chairwoman
00:43:37Anne isn't qualified
00:43:44for this
00:43:44Anne is completely
00:43:46unqualified
00:43:46for this position
00:43:47Is Roy publishing
00:43:48a joke?
00:43:49Are you telling me
00:43:50that the woman
00:43:51that was baking pies
00:43:53in the kitchen yesterday
00:43:54is a chairwoman
00:43:56of a company
00:43:56worth billions?
00:43:58Oh my god
00:43:58this cannot be true
00:44:00No
00:44:00Mr. Harper
00:44:02there must be a mistake
00:44:04she's just a housewife
00:44:05who cooks and cleans
00:44:06all day
00:44:07she'll ruin the company
00:44:09Silence
00:44:09the Roy family
00:44:11owns Roy Publishing Company
00:44:13and it's only natural
00:44:14that Anne
00:44:15the sole heiress
00:44:17to the company
00:44:17become the chairwoman
00:44:19none of you
00:44:20have any right
00:44:21to question her
00:44:22what?
00:44:31Wait
00:44:32my wife of 25 years
00:44:35the woman who cooked
00:44:36and cleaned for me
00:44:37is the sole heiress
00:44:40of the Roy family fortune?
00:44:43Jonathan

00:44:45you'd live to regret
00:44:46the way you treated me today
00:44:47Mom

00:44:51from us for so long?
00:44:53We're your own
00:44:53flesh and blood
00:44:54Were you afraid
00:44:57of splitting
00:44:57your assets with us?
00:45:02Don't use your
00:45:03twisted logic
00:45:04to put words in my mouth
00:45:05the only reason
00:45:06I hid my identity
00:45:07was to protect
00:45:08your father's
00:45:08fragile ego
00:45:10Jonathan
00:45:11when I first met you
00:45:13you were just

00:45:34so cruel
00:45:35to the loyal
00:45:37loving wife
00:45:38who stayed by your side
00:45:39and made you

01:04:44trying to bleed
01:04:44her ex-husband dry

01:04:53and now that she's
01:04:55tossed aside
01:04:55she's finally regretting it
