00:00:00Have you forgotten all the terrible things you did to her all because of me?
00:00:07Tessa wants to go shopping.
00:00:09I'll make it up to you later. Promise.
00:00:23Augie, I don't like her.
00:00:25Then she won't be at family events anymore. I promise.
00:00:30Remember when I smashed those bottles up her head and you grounded me for one day?
00:00:35Or when I hacked off all her hair?
00:00:38You did nothing.
00:00:40You even authorized a skin graft from her body.
00:00:44You really think she'd forgive you after all that?
00:00:48I did all that?
00:00:50Yeah, you did.
00:00:52Cruel, isn't it?
00:00:54Honestly, it's a miracle she stayed with you as long as she did.
00:01:00No?
00:01:03No?
00:01:05She's really done with you, August.
00:01:15August.
00:01:16August, August...
00:01:17August, August!
00:01:18August, August...
00:01:19August...
00:01:20August.
00:01:21August, August...
00:01:22August...
00:01:23August, August.
00:01:24August...
00:01:25This is heaven for her! Okay?
00:01:26Okay? And she wants no part of you in it.
00:01:28Shut up!
00:01:42Tomorrow I'll have my driver bring you back.
00:01:44Father arranged a match for you.
00:01:46Go meet the man.
00:01:48You'd really let me marry another man?
00:01:50Isn't that what you want?
00:01:51To be the Whitmore heiress?
00:01:54Fine.
00:01:54From now on, everything goes back to the way it used to.
00:01:57You're my sister, and I'm with Charlotte.
00:02:11Find out where Charlotte is now.
00:02:13Sir, she asked you for a divorce.
00:02:16Maybe it's time that you let her go.
00:02:17What, have you forgotten who you work for?
00:02:18No, I haven't, sir.
00:02:20I am your assistant.
00:02:21But I'm also someone who has feelings for Ms. Charlotte.
00:02:25What?
00:02:25What did you just say?
00:02:27Anybody who would have met her would have fallen for her, sir.
00:02:29She is stunning like fire.
00:02:31But you, you used her as a stand-in for your guilt shield.
00:02:37I'm not helping you track her down, sir.
00:02:41Fire me if you have to.
00:02:42If you don't do it, I'll find somebody else who will, no matter what the cost.
00:02:46I'm gonna find her.
00:02:47She was all light and fire, so attractive.
00:02:53But somehow, she gave me all of her attention.
00:02:57She always remembered the coffee I like.
00:02:59I brought you a double espresso.
00:03:03Just the right temperature.
00:03:05And it was always perfect.
00:03:13Honey, wait!
00:03:15It's raining.
00:03:17Don't catch a cold.
00:03:18On rainy days, she'd warm up my jacket before I even asked.
00:03:23Have a good day.
00:03:24Have a good day.
00:03:29Even when I locked myself away working overnight,
00:03:33she'd sit outside the door until sunrise.
00:03:42She'd dined herself just to stay in my world.
00:03:45And all she ever wanted is for me to love her.
00:03:49August, will you love me?
00:03:52Just once?
00:03:54I will.
00:03:56From now on, Charlotte,
00:03:57you'll be my only love.
00:04:02Yes.
00:04:03Yes, thank you.
00:04:04Sir, we found her.
00:04:06Charlotte's in Paris.
00:04:07Paris?
00:04:08She went to her brothers?
00:04:10Oh, Blake.
00:04:11Thank you so much for coming in all the way from Paris for this.
00:04:15You're my only sister.
00:04:17I wasn't gonna miss this wedding for the world.
00:04:20It's your duty now.
00:04:22You take care of our little princess.
00:04:23You ever hurt her?
00:04:26I will come back for her.
00:04:28I mean it.
00:04:33Don't be mad, okay?
00:04:35We're doing just fine the way we are.
00:04:37Dad, about Tessa's arranged marriage,
00:04:44I picked the guy myself.
00:04:47Book me the earliest flight to Paris.
00:04:49Yes, sir.
00:04:49So I've got profiles
00:04:57on over a dozen respectable young men for Tessa.
00:05:05The youngest son of the Lawson family.
00:05:07He won't mistreat her.
00:05:08Good eye.
00:05:10That boy has an excellent reputation.
00:05:13I have to go.
00:05:14Wait!
00:05:16Where's Charlotte?
00:05:18She hasn't been over here for dinner in a long time.
00:05:24You had a fight with Charlotte.
00:05:26No.
00:05:27She just went abroad for a bit.
00:05:28She'll be back soon.
00:05:29When she gets back,
00:05:31invite her over here for dinner.
00:05:34Do you know,
00:05:35I was feeling down last week,
00:05:37and she bought me this incredible wine package
00:05:40just to cheer me up.
00:05:42And your mother,
00:05:43she can't even sleep.
00:05:46And Charlotte drives her to therapy
00:05:48every week.
00:05:51Yeah, that's Charlotte.
00:05:54Always doing the right thing
00:05:56and never asking for anything in return.
00:05:59You better make sure
00:06:00you start treating that girl right.
00:06:02I will.
00:06:03For the rest of my life.
00:06:04Auggie,
00:06:10why haven't you been answering my text messages?
00:06:14You're going to see Charlotte?
00:06:16No, okay?
00:06:17I know I messed up yesterday,
00:06:18but I'll do whatever you want.
00:06:20Just don't go to her, please.
00:06:21Tessa, stop.
00:06:22No, no, no.
00:06:23We're not done unless I say we're done.
00:06:25Please, August, I love you.
00:06:27Fine.
00:06:28Then make our relationship public.
00:06:30Come on.
00:06:31Tell my parents everything.
00:06:32Tell them that we're in love.
00:06:33No.
00:06:36No, I, I, I can't.
00:06:38I have spoiled you long enough.
00:06:40I can't keep losing myself
00:06:41just to love you.
00:06:43I've chosen the right man for you
00:06:44and that's the last thing I do.
00:06:46From now on,
00:06:47we're just siblings.
00:06:57August!
00:06:58August!
00:06:59Please!
00:07:02Charlotte.
00:07:03I bought your favorite perfume
00:07:05and that necklace you've been ironed for years.
00:07:12And this.
00:07:14The ring I owed you.
00:07:15This time I put it on your finger myself.
00:07:20Sir,
00:07:21flight to Paris is now ready for boarding.
00:07:22Maybe she's still angry.
00:07:44But it's okay.
00:07:46If I apologize,
00:07:47she'll come back.
00:07:47Since you're really sorry,
00:07:50then I forgive you.
00:08:09What the hell?
00:08:10I love you, babe.
00:08:11I love you, babe.
00:08:25Charlotte.
00:08:27August?
00:08:28What the hell's going on?
00:08:30Dean Carver?
00:08:31You gotta be kidding me.
00:08:33Long time no see.
00:08:33August Whitmore.
00:08:35How was that just now?
00:08:37Uh,
00:08:37a kiss?
00:08:39Wasn't it obvious?
00:08:43Let go.
00:08:45We're dating now, man.
00:08:47Got a problem with that?
00:08:48Dating?
00:08:49She's my wife.
00:08:50Oh, really?
00:08:51Because I'm pretty sure you two are divorced already.
00:08:54You.
00:08:54Did you forget what I said to you?
00:08:57You ever hurt her?
00:08:59I will come back for her.
00:09:01Yeah,
00:09:01I kept my promise.
00:09:03But since you're here,
00:09:04August,
00:09:05why don't we let Charlotte decide?
00:09:16Cut the crap,
00:09:17Dean.
00:09:18Of course she's gonna pick me.
00:09:19I'm the one she's always loved.
00:09:21We're divorced,
00:09:22August.
00:09:22You don't get to make decisions for me anymore.
00:09:26I never agreed to a divorce.
00:09:28Come home with me.
00:09:28I'll make it right.
00:09:30Make it right?
00:09:31What do you think this is?
00:09:32You get some kind of free pass?
00:09:34Yeah.
00:09:35A couple of months ago,
00:09:36I would have been thrilled to hear you say that.
00:09:40But now,
00:09:42I don't love you anymore.
00:09:46Stay out of my life and go back to Tessa.
00:09:49It's over between me and her.
00:09:51We're just siblings now.
00:09:52That has nothing to do with me.
00:09:58I love Dean now.
00:10:01I do.
00:10:02In love?
00:10:03With him?
00:10:05You've loved me for six years.
00:10:06You don't just switch it off
00:10:08and fall into somebody else's arms.
00:10:09You think I'm buying this?
00:10:11Yeah?
00:10:12Then how about this?
00:10:18Enough!
00:10:18Stop!
00:10:21Stop!
00:10:24Stop!
00:10:28Well...
00:10:28Ain't this a show?
00:10:34August.
00:10:39What the hell are you doing here?
00:10:42I'm here to take my wife home.
00:10:44You're divorced.
00:10:46And didn't you just see that sweet kiss?
00:10:48I think she's with Dean now.
00:10:50That's insane.
00:10:51Blake, you're my best friend, and you're letting your sister run around and mess with some other man?
00:10:55Cheating on me?
00:10:56Hey, hey.
00:10:57You're the one who always said the best way to fall out of love is to fall in love again.
00:11:02Maybe she just learned from you?
00:11:04Charlotte, I was wrong about everything.
00:11:07Just come home with me, please.
00:11:09Bye.
00:11:09Wait, because you finally love me now?
00:11:13I don't know if I'm in love with you, but without you, the house is empty.
00:11:18Well, that's good.
00:11:20You don't even know if you love me, but you expect me to come back with you?
00:11:26Let's go, Dean.
00:11:29No, you can't go with him. Come with me.
00:11:31Let's talk.
00:11:35Fine.
00:11:39Whoa.
00:11:43She's got this.
00:11:47What the hell do you want, August?
00:11:48I've said it a hundred times.
00:11:50We're divorced.
00:11:51I'm with Dean now.
00:11:52You can't expect me to believe you fell in love with him that fast.
00:11:55God, you've always been so sure of yourself.
00:11:58Here's the truth.
00:11:59Hearts break.
00:12:01People change.
00:12:01Charlotte?
00:12:04If loving you ever started at a hundred, August, you have spent the past six years tearing it all down.
00:12:14You lied about loving me while obsessing over your stepsister.
00:12:19Minus ten.
00:12:20You ditched me on my birthday to take her shopping.
00:12:24Minus ten.
00:12:26I had a fever.
00:12:28You left me alone to buy her a gift.
00:12:30Minus twenty.
00:12:32She cracked my head.
00:12:34You grounded her for a day.
00:12:36Minus thirty.
00:12:37She cut my hair.
00:12:39She slapped me a hundred times and you just stood there defending her.
00:12:43You drained every drop of love that I had for you, August.
00:12:49There is nothing left.
00:12:51I know I failed you, but I can change.
00:12:53Don't go run to Dean just to get back at me.
00:12:57I'm not with Dean to hurt you.
00:12:59I'm with Dean because I love him.
00:13:03I don't believe you.
00:13:05That's fine.
00:13:06I'll make you believe it.
00:13:07Dean, I'm really sorry that I dragged you into all of this.
00:13:15August is my brother's friend and he just got here, so there's nothing I can do to make him leave.
00:13:20You might have to put up with him for a few more days.
00:13:22I'm sorry.
00:13:24Hey, don't apologize.
00:13:27Actually, I'm glad you gave me a shot.
00:13:30Even if it's just pretending.
00:13:32I said we could try.
00:13:35I don't know.
00:13:35I just got out of something really bad.
00:13:37And I don't even know if I'm ready to feel anything again.
00:13:41It's okay.
00:13:42I'll do my best to help you feel again.
00:13:55Hey, babe, can I have a raspberry?
00:13:57Of course.
00:13:58Mm-hmm.
00:14:02Mm-hmm.
00:14:04Mm-hmm.
00:14:07Mm-hmm.
00:14:09You want a double tea?
00:14:10Of course.
00:14:14You're welcome.
00:14:15Oh, my God.
00:14:24Oh, my God.
00:14:24That actor is so handsome.
00:14:26Oh.
00:14:28Really?
00:14:29Oh, well, not as handsome as you, obviously.
00:14:32No eyeing other men when I'm like...
00:14:34Okay.
00:14:35I did.
00:14:35Okay.
00:14:36Okay.
00:14:37It's only you.
00:14:38Only you.
00:14:40She used to ask me to watch TV with her, too.
00:14:47Honey, let's watch this movie.
00:14:51I'm busy.
00:14:53Don't bother me.
00:14:57Now, if you smile, if you kiss, it all belongs to someone else.
00:15:01Why does this hurt so much?
00:15:03Do you want some more raspberries?
00:15:06Maybe.
00:15:07Yeah?
00:15:07Only if you feed them to me.
00:15:10Oh, I forgot to mention, they're in their honeymoon phase.
00:15:15So this is just an appetizer.
00:15:16You can't handle it.
00:15:20Just walk away.
00:15:21I'm not leaving until she comes home.
00:15:25All right.
00:15:26Hey, Shirley.
00:15:28There's a charity auction coming up.
00:15:31You want to go?
00:15:31Of course.
00:15:32Let's go.
00:15:33Okay.
00:15:33Okay.
00:15:35Wait.
00:15:36I'm coming, too.
00:15:46You've always liked green, haven't you?
00:15:54That emerald necklace has your name all over it.
00:15:58I'm going to bid on it for you.
00:16:00She doesn't even like emeralds.
00:16:03You're wrong.
00:16:05Emeralds are my favorite.
00:16:07But you told me.
00:16:10You got this for me?
00:16:12Oh, my God.
00:16:20I love it, Augie.
00:16:23I knew you'd like it.
00:16:25Got it custom made?
00:16:26No.
00:16:27Yours isn't here.
00:16:35Simple design.
00:16:38It's nice.
00:16:38I gave Tesla a $10 million emerald.
00:16:42Shirley got a clearance bin, a trinket.
00:16:45How the hell would I let that happen?
00:16:48Told you what?
00:16:49Did I ever say I didn't like emeralds?
00:16:51I misunderstood.
00:16:52I'm sorry.
00:16:52You didn't misunderstand.
00:16:54You just never cared.
00:16:56Next item.
00:16:57A royal emerald necklace.
00:16:59A timeless symbol of eternal, faithful love.
00:17:04$10 million.
00:17:06$20.
00:17:07$30.
00:17:07$40.
00:17:09No.
00:17:10Wait.
00:17:11Oh, is it too rich for you?
00:17:12I'll take this as a graceful bow out.
00:17:15Actually, ladies and gentlemen, I am not here to play bidding games.
00:17:22That necklace matters to me.
00:17:25And no matter what number it hits, I'm in it till the end.
00:17:33Sold.
00:17:34Congratulations, Mr. Carver.
00:17:35Do you like it?
00:17:54I love it.
00:17:56You shouldn't have.
00:17:58I have money.
00:17:59As long as you're smiling, it's worth it.
00:18:01Even without fancy gifts, it feels so good to have Dean around.
00:18:06Wasn't he with Charlotte?
00:18:08Why is she with Dean now?
00:18:11They're divorced.
00:18:13You can tell he's trying to win her back.
00:18:15Too late.
00:18:17I heard he did something terrible to her.
00:18:20Oh, he deserves it.
00:18:22Love that comes this late is just a bad joke.
00:18:26Is this it?
00:18:28I don't deserve love anymore.
00:18:29I didn't win the Emerald Necklace, but I bought everything else.
00:18:44Maybe there's something in here you like.
00:18:46I don't want anything from you, August.
00:18:49Charlotte, please, I'm just trying to say I'm sorry.
00:18:51Well, maybe it's time that you stop pushing for things that aren't yours any longer.
00:18:54This has nothing to do with you.
00:18:59Charlotte!
00:19:09Dean!
00:19:11Dean!
00:19:12Oh, my God.
00:19:14Are you okay?
00:19:14Yeah, I'm fine.
00:19:15I'm fine.
00:19:15I'm fine.
00:19:16No, no.
00:19:16We're going to the hospital now.
00:19:17Come on.
00:19:19I was always one step too late.
00:19:22When she loved me, I didn't see her.
00:19:24Now that I finally love her back, she's already gone.
00:19:30August, let her go.
00:19:33It's over.
00:19:35No.
00:19:36No, I'm not letting her go.
00:19:52Does it hurt?
00:19:54It's okay.
00:19:56It's okay.
00:19:57Thank you for saving me today.
00:20:03I'm sorry.
00:20:04I told you, don't apologize.
00:20:09Your life means more to me than anything.
00:20:12You should know, Charlotte.
00:20:23I've loved you for ten years.
00:20:26Dean.
00:20:28I don't know, I don't know.
00:20:58I searched all over Paris, finally found an emerald just as rare.
00:21:12Hope she'll like it.
00:21:15Dean, slow down.
00:21:28What the hell are you doing?
00:21:41Oh my god!
00:21:44Are you out of your mind?
00:21:46Get out!
00:21:47Didn't anybody teach you how to knock, man?
00:21:49Oh my god!
00:21:54Oh my god!
00:21:59Hey!
00:22:00God!
00:22:01What is wrong with you?
00:22:02Are you crazy?
00:22:03Am I crazy?
00:22:04What about you?
00:22:05What the hell are you doing?
00:22:06What I do is none of your business.
00:22:07Get out!
00:22:08It's none of my business.
00:22:09You're sleeping with another man right under my nose!
00:22:11This is my home.
00:22:12And I love him.
00:22:15Yeah.
00:22:16You're the one who needs to leave, August.
00:22:18Dean.
00:22:19Let me talk to him.
00:22:24Dean has been in love with me for years.
00:22:37He's been more faithful than you ever have been.
00:22:44Charlotte, at Blake's birthday dinner, I saw you in that red dress.
00:22:49You look like fire.
00:22:51I know you love August.
00:22:52He doesn't deserve you.
00:22:53But if he makes you happy, I'll stay away.
00:22:55And now that you're divorced, just one chance, Charlotte.
00:22:58Let me love you the way you deserve.
00:23:00He has always been loyal to me.
00:23:05Unlike you.
00:23:06Celebrate with a heart of stone.
00:23:08He's loved you since back then.
00:23:19Yes, he has.
00:23:21I told you that if you didn't want to love me, somebody else would.
00:23:25I was hopelessly in love with you for years, and you ignored me.
00:23:29Now that I've finally moved on, you want to act like I'm yours again?
00:23:33I'm sorry.
00:23:34I don't want your apology.
00:23:37I want you out of my life.
00:23:39For good.
00:23:40I can change.
00:23:42Okay?
00:23:43Just come back with me.
00:23:44Hey!
00:23:45Don't worry, I've got it.
00:23:58She used to look at me like that.
00:24:03So this is what it feels like loving someone and losing them.
00:24:31Charlotte?
00:24:32Is that you?
00:24:33Charlotte?
00:24:34Is that you?
00:24:35Charlotte?
00:24:36Is that you?
00:24:55Strongest whiskey I got.
00:25:01I saw them together today.
00:25:15In bed.
00:25:16I can't take this anymore.
00:25:19Funny.
00:25:20Six years of coldness, and now you suddenly can't take it.
00:25:24Blake, I think I'm in love with her.
00:25:27Before I came to Paris, I wasn't sure.
00:25:31But these days after seeing her smile at him, touch him, I can't breathe.
00:25:36I can't stand seeing Charlotte with another man.
00:25:39Maybe I've always been in love with her.
00:25:41I just...
00:25:42You were just too blind.
00:25:43And deaf.
00:25:45Yeah.
00:25:46Blind and deaf and a damn fool.
00:25:50You gotta help me fix this.
00:25:53I'll spend the rest of my life making it right.
00:25:56We'll see.
00:25:58Get some sleep.
00:25:59Get some sleep.
00:26:16There's a wire!
00:26:17Everyone out!
00:26:18Now!
00:26:19No.
00:26:20That whiskey...
00:26:21Blake Drugged it...
00:26:22Charlotte might be in danger.
00:26:35Charlotte?
00:26:36Where are you?
00:26:37Steve, come on!
00:26:41Charlotte!
00:26:42No!
00:26:43No!
00:26:44No!
00:26:45No!
00:26:46No!
00:26:47No!
00:26:48Just take her and go.
00:27:06From now on, my life has nothing to do with you anymore.
00:27:09If you don't love me, someone else will.
00:27:13Just go.
00:27:18Were you this heartbroken back then, the way I am now?
00:27:24I'm sorry, Charlotte.
00:27:40Still alive, huh?
00:27:42Guess your luck hasn't run out yet.
00:27:46Charlotte, where is she?
00:27:48Next door.
00:27:50Taking care of Dean.
00:27:55I set the fire, August.
00:27:59See, I even drugged both of your drinks myself.
00:28:03I wanted to see how she'd react.
00:28:07Who she'd choose.
00:28:08And my sister, she didn't disappoint.
00:28:11She dragged Dean out first.
00:28:13She didn't leave his side all night long.
00:28:17You should have seen how heartbroken she was.
00:28:20For Dean.
00:28:22Why?
00:28:22Why'd you do it?
00:28:26Why?
00:28:30Because I want you to feel what it's like to be left behind.
00:28:33I want you to suffer, August.
00:28:37I want you to feel exactly what she felt every damn day with you.
00:28:44How the hell could you let your sister smash bottles over her head?
00:28:49And hack off her hair?
00:28:50And slap her a hundred times?
00:28:53Your sister's precious to you?
00:28:56Well, so's mine.
00:29:00I treated you like a friend, and this is how you repay me?
00:29:03By treating my sister like trash?
00:29:06I was wrong.
00:29:12But if this is the price, will you help me bring her back?
00:29:16What?
00:29:17Are you insane?
00:29:18Dean loves her.
00:29:21He's loved her for a decade.
00:29:24And you tore her down for six years.
00:29:28If he knew half of what you did, he'd kill you.
00:29:32But you don't have to worry about that.
00:29:34In fact, you did him a favor.
00:29:36See, I already had your skin grafted to save Dean's burns.
00:29:43Oh, you feel that?
00:29:46That's just a taste of what you did to my sister.
00:29:50I'll pay the price for what I've done.
00:29:54Just please, don't let me lose her.
00:29:57There's no need.
00:29:58See, someone's already paid the price in your stead.
00:30:02That psychotic little sister of yours, Tessa.
00:30:06I found her new husband.
00:30:08And oh, he's perfect.
00:30:11Sixty-something years old in his sadistic prime.
00:30:15I think he's already buried three wives?
00:30:18I lost a half-million-dollar contract just to seal that deal.
00:30:27What?
00:30:28Her wedding was two days ago.
00:30:31She didn't call you?
00:30:34Well, then my job here is done.
00:30:37I hope you both rot in hell.
00:30:39So this is karma.
00:30:43What goes around really does come back.
00:30:45August, please help me.
00:31:01Please, August, I love you.
00:31:03Don't leave me.
00:31:05Dad and Mom forced me to marry the old creep
00:31:07unless then he abused me over and over again.
00:31:11Please, Augie, don't leave me.
00:31:14I love you.
00:31:16You made your choice, Tessa.
00:31:19And choices come with consequences.
00:31:21What?
00:31:22What does that mean?
00:31:24I've spoiled you far too long.
00:31:28If you can't live with him, talk to Mom and Dad.
00:31:31No, no, please.
00:31:32You have to help me.
00:31:34I don't have time.
00:31:35And if I do, Charlotte would never forgive me.
00:31:40So it's true.
00:31:42You're in love with her.
00:31:43You're in love with Charlotte.
00:31:46Yes.
00:31:46Liar.
00:31:48You love me.
00:31:49You've always loved me.
00:31:52Right?
00:31:54Done crying yet?
00:31:55Looks like I have to punish you more than tonight.
00:31:58What?
00:31:59August?
00:32:00August, please, don't make up the phone, please!
00:32:02Please!
00:32:02Please!
00:32:02Please!
00:32:02Please!
00:32:05She didn't sleep for three days.
00:32:26Stayed right by his side.
00:32:28Such a sweet wife.
00:32:30Mr. Carver's a lucky man.
00:32:31Okay.
00:32:35August, what do you want?
00:32:54Give her back to me.
00:32:56I'll trade anything.
00:32:58Anything?
00:32:59Yes.
00:33:00My shares in the Whitmore Group, my overseas accounts, even Tessa.
00:33:08I'll have her come here and kneel and apologize to Charlotte.
00:33:10You still don't get it, do you?
00:33:14Charlotte is not an object to be bartered for.
00:33:17She's a woman.
00:33:19With a heart.
00:33:21With choices.
00:33:23You had all of her once and you ruined it.
00:33:25Me?
00:33:25I'm going to love her with all I have every day for the rest of my life.
00:33:34And you can spend the rest of yours drowning in guilt alone.
00:33:49How did I never realize being in love is such a luxury?
00:33:52Didn't I tell you not to find me unless it's life or death?
00:33:58Sir, it's your father.
00:33:59He said it's urgent.
00:34:02What the hell are you doing over there?
00:34:04If you delay this deal any longer, we're going to lose 500 million.
00:34:13I'll be back tomorrow.
00:34:14I'm headed back to the States.
00:34:25It's a business emergency.
00:34:27But as soon as I fix it, I'll come straight back to you.
00:34:30August Whitmore.
00:34:32You're talking to me again?
00:34:34Don't come back here.
00:34:36I don't ever want to see you again.
00:34:39Just take this, please.
00:34:40Please.
00:34:41Please.
00:34:44Let's get married.
00:34:58Really?
00:35:00Where's the ring?
00:35:03I'll have a ring.
00:35:08You don't want to, fine.
00:35:09Wait, no, no, no.
00:35:10Wait, August.
00:35:10I do want to get married, August.
00:35:13I do.
00:35:18A love that arrives too late is worth nothing at all.
00:35:32August.
00:35:33You're finally back.
00:35:35Tessa, what are you doing here?
00:35:40I made a mistake, okay?
00:35:42I don't want to be your sister.
00:35:43I just want to be yours.
00:35:44Tessa!
00:35:47Mr. Whitmore.
00:35:49He's a monster, August.
00:35:50He's been torturing me half to death.
00:35:51You have to help me, please.
00:35:53It was just a misunderstanding.
00:35:56You're married now.
00:35:58Make it work.
00:35:59No, I can't.
00:36:00I can't.
00:36:01You touch her again, and you'll regret it.
00:36:07Come on, sweetheart.
00:36:08Let's go.
00:36:09I'll treat you real good.
00:36:12No, no.
00:36:13No, August.
00:36:13Please.
00:36:14You promised you'd protect me.
00:36:15You can't leave me like this.
00:36:16Please.
00:36:17Please.
00:36:18No.
00:36:20No.
00:36:20No.
00:36:20No.
00:36:20No.
00:36:20No.
00:36:20No.
00:36:20No.
00:36:21No.
00:36:22No.
00:36:23No.
00:36:23No.
00:36:23No.
00:36:23No.
00:36:23No.
00:36:23No.
00:36:24No.
00:36:25No.
00:36:25No.
00:36:25No.
00:36:25No.
00:36:25No.
00:36:25No.
00:36:27No.
00:36:27No.
00:36:27No.
00:36:27No.
00:36:28No.
00:36:29No.
00:36:29No.
00:36:30No.
00:36:31No.
00:36:32No.
00:36:33No.
00:36:34No.
00:36:55Charlotte, from now on, this place will only hold memories of you.
00:37:01Where's Charlotte?
00:37:06You said you were bringing her home.
00:37:09We're divorced.
00:37:10What?
00:37:11What did you say?
00:37:12I failed her.
00:37:14For years I was in love with Tessa.
00:37:16I married Charlotte thinking I could bury those feelings.
00:37:21We were never even intimate.
00:37:23How dare you!
00:37:24She was your wife!
00:37:25How could you treat her like that?
00:37:27And still, she never said one single bad word about you.
00:37:32Get on the next flight.
00:37:34I don't care if you have to crawl and beg.
00:37:36Just make sure you bring her back.
00:37:38You got that?
00:37:39I will.
00:37:40But before that, there's something I need to do.
00:37:48Dear Charlotte, I walked through the house today and realized there is never space for you here.
00:37:55I'm sorry.
00:37:57You always said you liked my coffee.
00:37:59Truth is, it only tasted good when you made it.
00:38:02You looked stunning in that red dress.
00:38:05I couldn't look too long.
00:38:07Afraid I'd fall too hard.
00:38:09This time, I'll be the one chasing you.
00:38:19Where's Charlotte?
00:38:20Oh, bonjour monsieur.
00:38:22She left early.
00:38:24It is Mr. Carver's birthday.
00:38:26There's a private party at the Excel Manor.
00:38:30Thank you everyone for being here for my birthday.
00:38:36It really means a lot.
00:38:38But today, there's something else I want to do.
00:38:45Charlotte, from the first time I saw you, ten years ago, I knew this moment would come.
00:38:55Let me be the one to give you the love you've always deserved.
00:39:06Say yes!
00:39:07Say yes!
00:39:08Say yes!
00:39:09Say yes!
00:39:10Say yes!
00:39:11Say yes!
00:39:12Say yes, princess.
00:39:13I vetted him.
00:39:14He's gonna take good care of you.
00:39:17Yes.
00:39:20Wait.
00:39:22Wait.
00:39:25Are you kidding me?
00:39:28August, are you really crashing my proposal right now?
00:39:33Charlotte.
00:39:34I know I don't deserve anything.
00:39:36Please, just look at me one last time.
00:39:44Three hundred letters.
00:39:45From our first day, to our wedding day, to every day.
00:39:49I loved you.
00:39:50I was just too much of a coward to tell you.
00:39:53Keep them.
00:39:54Keep them.
00:39:55Okay?
00:39:56Keep them for yourselves.
00:40:03Let's continue.
00:40:04Let's continue.
00:40:14Ian?
00:40:15Ian?
00:40:18Ian!
00:40:19Ian!
00:40:20Ian!
00:40:27With him gone, Charlotte will be mine again.
00:40:31Charmant!
00:40:33Charmant!
00:40:35Charmant!
00:40:37Charmant!
00:40:39Charmant!

00:41:01It's okay.

00:41:29To see if I really mattered to you.
00:41:33And I know that I do now.
00:41:35Yes, I regret everything.
00:41:39It was all my fault. I ruined us.
00:41:41Please.

00:55:49I only have you.
00:55:51For years, no matter how I tried to touch him, he never once gave in.
00:56:16But tonight, one sleep talking from Tessa, and he completely lost control.
00:56:21If he wants to love his sister, you let him.
00:56:24I'm done playing a loyal wife.
00:56:27I'll start my own life.
00:56:32August, I think a mosquito bit my lip last night.
00:56:35Look, it's all swollen.
00:56:39I'll have the maid get you some ointment.
00:56:42I promised I'd get you something after the hospital.
00:56:46This hair clip, it matches your hair.
00:56:49Wow, I never knew you could be so sweet to your wife.
00:56:53It's just his compensation.
00:56:55Thanks.
00:56:56Thanks.
00:56:57Thanks.
00:56:59Thanks.
00:57:00Thanks.
00:57:02No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:57:32No, my hair.
00:57:45You cut my hair?
00:57:47Yep.
00:57:48I need material for an art project, so I thought I'd make a wig.
00:57:52And yours is the best.
00:57:54So shiny.
00:58:01You hit me?
00:58:02My own brother wouldn't even lay a hand on me, and you think you can?
00:58:06Hold her down.
00:58:08I am August's wife.
00:58:10If you touch me, you will regret it.
00:58:13You're August's maid, so tell me, who does even love me?
00:58:17Or her?
00:58:24That's it.
00:58:25You already know who runs this house.
00:58:27I'm glad you're finally catching up.
00:58:31What the hell are you looking at?
00:58:39Do you really think August is going to let you get away with this?
00:58:45Oh, please.
00:58:47August has let me get away with everything my entire life.
00:58:50Even if I were to beat his wife dead today.
00:58:54And just remember, I'm the one he cares about, not you.
00:58:58So now, I'll make sure you never forget that.
00:59:01How many was that?
00:59:22Ninety-nine.
00:59:23Ninety-nine.
00:59:24Ninety-nine?
00:59:25How about?
00:59:26Let's make it a clean hundred.
00:59:28You look so much better like that.
00:59:46What the hell's going on here?
00:59:54I heard about what happened today.
01:00:03And?
01:00:04Tessa can be a little impulsive.
01:00:07And what she did today was wrong.
01:00:09I already punished her.
01:00:10I wonder what that punishment looks like.
01:00:13She cut your hair, so she cut a lock of her own, too.
01:00:17To say she's sorry.
01:00:19She slapped me a hundred times.
01:00:23I was unconscious.
01:00:25You don't actually think that that makes us even, do you?
01:00:28Her hand is swollen from hitting you.
01:00:29She suffered, too.
01:00:31Oh, my God.
01:00:32I was an idiot.
01:00:33Forever falling in love with you.
01:00:41Get out!
01:00:42Can you calm down?
01:00:43I brought her here to apologize.
01:00:46Come in.
01:00:46Sorry, Charlotte.
01:00:52I was a little out of line.
01:00:57August, she's scaring me.
01:00:58Please don't let her hurt me.
01:01:00Don't worry.
01:01:01No one's going to hurt you.
01:01:02Not while I'm here.
01:01:04Both of you.
01:01:05Just get out.
01:01:06Now.
01:01:07Look, I know you're angry, but the doctor said you need to rest.
01:01:10And just take some time to relax.
01:01:11I said, get out!
01:01:22Sweetheart, your visa's approved.
01:01:25Someone offered to pick you up in Paris anytime.
01:01:28Any time.
01:01:33Who?
01:01:34Let's just say, a much better person than that heartless husband of yours.
01:01:39We'll see you in Paris, we are.
01:01:40Once I get that visa, I am never setting foot in this place again.
01:01:58Let go of me!
01:02:00Help!
01:02:01Help!
01:02:01Help!
01:02:02Help!
01:02:03Help!
01:02:04Help!
01:02:04Well, look who's awake.
01:02:19What the hell are you?
01:02:22Let me go.
01:02:23My brother will kill you for this.
01:02:29You know what that is strapped to you, princess?
01:02:32That's a bomb.
01:02:33The Whitmores ruined my life.
01:02:35And now, August is going to watch the two women he loves get blown to bits.
01:02:44No, please!
01:02:45Somebody help us!
01:02:47Please!
01:02:48Tessa, just stop crying, okay?
01:02:50If we want to get out of here, we have to figure this out.
01:02:52Don't yell at me, okay?
01:02:53I'm scared!
01:02:55August!
01:02:56August, please!
01:02:59August!
01:03:00August!
01:03:01Help me!
01:03:02Please!
01:03:03I know how to disassemble this!
01:03:05Free me first and we can save Tessa together!
01:03:07There is still time!
01:03:08No, August!
01:03:09Please save me!
01:03:10Please!
01:03:11No!
01:03:12I'm going to get hers first, and then I'll come back for you.
01:03:16He chose her again.
01:03:18And what's worse, it doesn't even hurt anymore.
01:03:29August, no, please!
01:03:30Please!
01:03:30I'm scared!
01:03:31Please!
01:03:32Please!
01:03:33Please!
01:03:34Please!
01:03:35Please!
01:03:37I'm scared!
01:03:41Please!
01:03:42Please!
01:03:43Just take her and go!
01:03:44From now on, my life has nothing to do with you anymore.
01:03:47If you don't love me, someone else will!
01:03:50No, no, please!
01:03:51Please, it's going to blow you down!
01:03:53Leave me the lie!
01:04:14I'll be right back!
01:04:18That was close, but luckily she managed to throw the bomb away in the last few seconds.
01:04:25Thank you, Doctor.
01:04:37Don't move. Don't move.
01:04:39Same. Fake concern. No matter what you do, I will never forgive you.
01:04:44You just had a skin graft done for Tessa. You need to rest.
01:04:47What did you just say?
01:04:53I gave Tessa a skin graft?
01:04:56Tessa's arm was burnt, and she didn't want a scar.
01:04:59And your skin matched her the best, so they used it for the transplant.
01:05:03You didn't even ask me? You just took it?
01:05:05She's your princess, and what am I? Just trash on your shoes?
01:05:10I'll make it up to you. You've always wanted to sleep in me, haven't you?
01:05:13When you're discharged, I'll give you that.
01:05:16Save it. You're disgusting.
01:05:21Blame me all you want. I'll leave on a business trip tomorrow, but I keep my promises.
01:05:25When I get back, I'll follow through.
01:05:26I'm such an idiot.
01:05:44I knew this ring never fit, but I wore it anyway.
01:05:47Tessa, meet me in August to study. There's something you'll want to see.
01:05:57What?
01:05:58You better not try anything.
01:06:02Try it.
01:06:10What's your point?
01:06:11You always wondered why August kept his distance from you.
01:06:14It wasn't me.
01:06:15It's because he wanted you.
01:06:16That's insane.
01:06:20I have proof.
01:06:24Everyone always thought that August Whitmore, the stoic celibate, the obsessed businessman, had no time for women.
01:06:30But the truth is, he has been locking himself in here for years, jacking off to your photos.
01:06:36The woman that he loved most is the one that he never dared to touch.
01:06:48His stepsister.
01:06:50What a fucking joke.
01:06:51So he really wants me.
01:06:55You remember that night that you fell asleep on the couch?
01:06:57He kissed you for three minutes.
01:07:01And that ring?
01:07:02That was never meant for me.
01:07:03He got that for you.
01:07:04He always wanted to marry you.
01:07:07I want you to give this to your brother.
01:07:13It's a divorce agreement.
01:07:14I have already signed it.
01:07:17Where are you going?
01:07:18To start my new life without him.
01:07:23And Tessa, if you ever lay a finger on me again, I will return it to you a thousand times over.
01:07:48Just landed.
01:07:50Got you something.
01:07:53Of course, Tessa gets the jewelry.
01:07:56I get the freebies.
01:08:00But not anymore.
01:08:02From now on, August.
01:08:04You will never hurt me again.
01:08:09Happy divorce, August.
01:08:11Enjoy your freedom.
01:08:12And I'll enjoy my life.
01:08:13I'm going far, far away.
01:08:17To a place you'll never find me.
01:08:19And I'll find someone who'll love me for who I am.
01:08:32Wait.
01:08:33Wait.
01:08:33She usually replies within seconds, no matter what I send.
01:08:51Morning.
01:08:52Did you eat?
01:08:53It's raining.
01:08:53Don't forget an umbrella.
01:08:56Good night.
01:08:57Sweet dreams.
01:08:57Good night.
01:08:57Good night.
01:09:03She's still mad at me?
01:09:13Sir, should we go to Miss Tessa's first or head home?
01:09:15Charlotte.
01:09:17Is she out of the hospital?
01:09:18Yesterday.
01:09:19The doctor says she's recovering well.
01:09:24The number you have dialed is not in service.
01:09:27What kind of game is she playing now?
01:09:29What, she blocked me?
01:09:34Drive home.
01:09:35Now.
01:09:39Why do I feel unsettled?
01:09:41She's never done this before.
01:09:42What the hell is going on?
01:09:43She used to cuddle up with that blanket every night.
01:10:08What the hell is going on?
01:10:09What the hell is going on?
01:10:11What the hell is going on?
01:10:13Sir, Charlotte's not home.
01:10:23So she ran.
01:10:25Is this another one of her stunts waiting for me to chase her?
01:10:27She's probably hiding out at Lindsay's again.
01:10:29Call her.
01:10:30Tell Charlotte, stop being dramatic and come home.
01:10:32Yes, sir, but I think she's really mad this time.
01:10:34What if she doesn't come back?
01:10:35That's impossible.
01:10:36No matter how bad the fight, it's always the same.
01:10:38Three days max.
01:10:39And then she comes back.
01:10:41Honey.
01:10:41Hey.
01:10:42Hey.
01:10:45What the hell is wrong with you, August?
01:10:47Don't expect me to forgive you for this.
01:10:55Can't you just say sorry and we can get over this?
01:11:00Sorry.
01:11:01Don't be mad at me anymore.
01:11:02Okay.
01:11:06Since you're really sorry, then I forgive you.
01:11:18What are you waiting for?
01:11:22Make the damn call.
01:11:22Yes, sir.
01:11:26Don't bother.
01:11:28She's not coming back.
01:11:31She's not coming back.
01:11:38Charlotte's already divorced you.
01:11:39What do you mean?
01:11:40She left me her wedding ring.
01:11:48Said she's never coming back.
01:11:50Say that again?
01:11:52You're hurting me, August.
01:11:54Tell me exactly what she said.
01:11:57She said you were never in love with her.
01:12:00The only reason you were with her was to bury your feelings for me.
01:12:04What else did she say?
01:12:05You're done here, right?
01:12:08I'll be outside, sir.
01:12:09She said you kissed me while I was asleep.
01:12:19She showed me your study room.
01:12:21All the photos of me behind your medals.
01:12:25She said you jerk off to them every night.
01:12:29And she signed this.
01:12:31She said she hopes we have a happy life together.
01:12:37You could have just told me you wanted me, Augie.
01:12:39I've always wanted you, too.
01:12:44We're not really siblings, so...
01:12:47You can have me now.
01:12:51You can have me now.
01:12:53She knows everything?
01:12:55Yes.
01:12:56She said you only married her so you could forget about your feelings for me.
01:13:00There's no need to pretend now, August.
01:13:03You can do whatever you want with my body now.
01:13:06I'm not gonna stop you.
01:13:07I brought you some tea.
01:13:22Tessa's due back from her trip soon, isn't she?
01:13:24How would I know?
01:13:26I've been too busy working.
01:13:28I've had time to think of her.
01:13:30This photo frame is dusty.
01:13:31Where did she go?
01:13:45What are you saying?
01:13:47You were married to her, but you never stopped wanting me, and now that she's gone, all you care about is her?
01:13:51Don't tell me you're actually falling for her.
01:13:59Say it!
01:14:00Do you love her?
01:14:04Tessa, what are you doing?
01:14:05Give that to me.
01:14:06If you really love Charlotte, I'll kill myself.
01:14:08I'd rather die than see you fall for another girl.
01:14:11Tessa, don't do it.
01:14:12Then say it.
01:14:13Say you're mine, or I'll cut myself.
01:14:15Fine.
01:14:19I'll be with you.
01:14:24You're mine now, August.
01:14:26Finally, you're really mine.
01:14:31Parker.
01:14:33Take this away.
01:14:35Sir.
01:14:36Should I still keep trying to contact Charlotte?
01:14:38Are you deaf?
01:14:39He just said he's done with her.
01:14:41If you dare try calling her, I'll make sure my brother fires you first.
01:14:46This isn't something that you would regret, sir.
01:14:48What did you say?
01:14:49Regret?
01:14:52Stop!
01:14:53Why are you saying that?
01:14:54I should be happy.
01:14:56Tessa's finally mine.
01:14:58But why does it feel like something's missing?
01:15:07This is a rare purse.
01:15:08There's only five of these in the world.
01:15:10Oh my God, can you please buy it for me?
01:15:11Of course, whatever you want.
01:15:13Yay, you're the best.
01:15:15Hi.
01:15:15How can I assist?
01:15:17Not that one, and definitely not that one.
01:15:19But all the others?
01:15:20Wrap them up.
01:15:21Right away.
01:15:22Would you like to see our newest collection?
01:15:24Yes.
01:15:25Awesome, right this way.
01:15:33Which one looks better on me?
01:15:34You look stunning than anything.
01:15:36So, buy them all if you can't decide.
01:15:38Aki, I love you so much.
01:15:41Oh, keep!
01:15:47What about this one?
01:15:54I don't know.
01:15:55What do you think?
01:15:55Is it...
01:15:56Is it too plain?
01:15:57Does it make me look old?
01:16:00It's fine.
01:16:01You look the same in anything.
01:16:02Look, I have work to get done, so...
01:16:04I'm leaving.
01:16:09Why is she in my head?
01:16:11I should be happy with Tessa, shouldn't I?
01:16:12You're in a good mood today, sir.
01:16:23She's lively.
01:16:25Being around her, it's easier to breathe.
01:16:26Not like Charlotte.
01:16:27Always so dull.
01:16:28She wasn't always like that.
01:16:30She used to be vibrant.
01:16:33The only reason that Charlotte dulled herself down was to fend to your world.
01:16:36First time I saw Charlotte, she was 20.
01:16:39She was fire, bright, alive.
01:16:41Too bright for me, maybe.
01:16:43So, you're August Whitmore.
01:16:46They say you're allergic to women.
01:16:48Is that true?
01:16:49But after we got married, she changed.
01:16:59Honey, what do you think?
01:17:01Red is gaudy.
01:17:03And can you stop talking so loud?
01:17:05After that, she stopped wearing colors, stopped laughing out loud.
01:17:09She was just dull.
01:17:12Charlotte changed for you because she loved you.
01:17:17What if she gets tired and walks away?
01:17:19Could you live with that?
01:17:22All right.
01:17:25What are you guys talking about?
01:17:27Nothing.
01:17:27Just work stuff.
01:17:29You're thinking about work while you're on a date with me?
01:17:31You better make it up to me, okay?
01:17:33That new bistro?
01:17:34I want to eat there.
01:17:35Now!
01:17:42Yeah, I understand.
01:17:44Sir, it's a four-hour wait.
01:17:46Tessa, I have an important meeting this afternoon.
01:17:50Can we do this somewhere else?
01:17:52No, it's just four hours.
01:17:54If you're really my boyfriend, you better spoil me like a man madly in love would.
01:17:58All right.
01:17:59We'll wait.
01:18:01You're the best.
01:18:03So this is what love feels like.
01:18:05Just tired.
01:18:05Tessa, what a coincidence.
01:18:07Is that your boyfriend?
01:18:20Oh my god, thanks, Aki.
01:18:22You're the sweetest.
01:18:24I have to take this.
01:18:30Tessa, what a coincidence.
01:18:33Is that your boyfriend?
01:18:34He's insanely hot.
01:18:36That's my stepbrother.
01:18:37Your stepbrother?
01:18:38You've never mentioned him.
01:18:40He seems so attentive.
01:18:42Kept fussing over you.
01:18:43And the way he was looking at you?
01:18:46Definitely boyfriend vibes.
01:18:47Oh.
01:18:48You two never.
01:18:51What?
01:18:52No, no, no, no.
01:18:53My mom married his dad.
01:18:55That's literally it.
01:18:57Oh, sorry.
01:18:58Totally misread.
01:18:59Catch you around?
01:19:00Agi, you're back.
01:19:09Agi, are you done with your phone call?
01:19:12Yeah.
01:19:13You didn't happen to hear any of that, did you?
01:19:15Should I have?
01:19:15No, no, no.
01:19:17It was nothing at all.
01:19:18I'm done with my food now, so let's go.
01:19:24Let's wait till we're in the car.
01:19:26There's too many people in here.
01:19:28When this place opened, the wait list was insane.
01:19:32Charlotte waited eight hours just to get us a table.
01:19:35But I showed up late.
01:19:37You're here.
01:19:38Hey, Tessa needed something last minute.
01:19:40Sorry I'm late.
01:19:41Why did you order so much food?
01:19:43I, um, I actually invited some friends.
01:19:46I really wanted them to meet you,
01:19:47but they couldn't wait any longer, so they had to go.
01:19:50But hey, I mean, it's just you and me.
01:19:52Date night, right?
01:19:54Charlotte couldn't wait to introduce me to her friends.
01:19:56But Tessa?
01:20:00Augie, what are you looking at?
01:20:02Nothing.
01:20:03Let's go.
01:20:05Where's Charlotte?
01:20:07Didn't she come back with you?
01:20:09Uh, she, she had something come up.
01:20:11Said she couldn't make it.
01:20:12You two have been married a while now.
01:20:14Don't you think it's about time you had a child?
01:20:16Actually, yeah.
01:20:17Dad, August has his own plans for that.
01:20:19Let's, let's not rush him.
01:20:21All right, Tessa.
01:20:23But you're now of age two.
01:20:25I've lined up some potential matches for you.
01:20:28Family alliances.
01:20:29You should meet with them when you have a moment.
01:20:31Yes, Daddy, of course.
01:20:36Talk later, okay?
01:20:37Augie!
01:20:49Why didn't you tell Mom and Dad about the divorce?
01:20:53Because they love Charlotte.
01:20:55And if they found out you two split, they'd go mad.
01:20:58Plus, it's our first night.
01:20:59I didn't want to ruin it.
01:21:00Then why didn't you refuse Dad when he arranged your marriage?
01:21:02I was just humoring him, Augie.
01:21:06Don't overthink it.
01:21:10I'm tired.
01:21:11I'm going to bed.
01:21:13You can take the guest room.
01:21:26Surprise.
01:21:28Surprise.
01:21:29Get out.
01:21:29What?
01:21:30Why?
01:21:31We're together now.
01:21:32What's wrong with sharing a bed?
01:21:34If you kick me out, I'm seriously going to cry.
01:21:38Fine.
01:21:39Stay.
01:21:43I can't believe this is real, Augie.
01:21:46I've loved you since we were kids.
01:21:47And now that you love me, it feels like a dream.
01:21:51You really love me that much?
01:21:52Of course I do.
01:21:55I want us to stay like this.
01:21:58Forever.
01:21:59Then let's get married.
01:22:02What?
01:22:03Let's get married, Tessa.
01:22:05Isn't it a little fast?
01:22:06I mean, we're perfect the way we are, right?
01:22:09I don't do secrets.
01:22:11If we're going to be together, it's all in.
01:22:13I'll make it public that we're not biologically related.
01:22:15Then we marry.
01:22:17And build our life with everyone's blessings.
01:22:20Look, if you want me, Tessa, if you really want me, this is what it takes.
01:22:23No.
01:22:26No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:22:28I can't.
01:22:29I won't.
01:22:32If we go public, I won't be the admired heirs anymore.
01:22:36And people will say I seduced my own brother.
01:22:37That's disgusting.
01:22:39And mom and dad would never forgive us.
01:22:41I see what you really want.
01:22:42You want me to be your secret lover?
01:22:44No, I don't.
01:22:45That's not it.
01:22:45I just...
01:22:46I just want us to stay the way we are.
01:22:49Right.
01:22:50Nothing has to change.
01:22:51Is that why you denied our relationship to your classmate?
01:22:55That's my stepbrother.
01:22:57You heard that?
01:22:59I was just scared that they'd gossip.
01:23:01Okay, please.
01:23:02Please don't be mad at me.
01:23:03I was just scared.
01:23:05Right.
01:23:06And when dad brought up a marriage alliance, you said yes?
01:23:10Was that also fair, too?
01:23:11Yes, daddy, of course.
01:23:13Yes!
01:23:14Okay, I...
01:23:15I was just trying to buy time, okay?
01:23:17I would have come up with something.
01:23:18Eventually.
01:23:22Tessa.
01:23:23I've always loved you.
01:23:25But I didn't hold back because I was afraid you would reject me.
01:23:28I held back because deep down I know how selfish you can be.
01:23:30What?
01:23:32You said yes to me.
01:23:34But not to any of the costs.
01:23:36You wouldn't give your image up.
01:23:38Your title.
01:23:39You only want me if it's easy.
01:23:45Then why be with me at all?
01:23:47Because I had hoped.
01:23:49If you would have really chosen me, I would have given you everything.
01:23:52But I see now you would risk nothing for me.
01:23:57Let's end this, Tessa.
01:24:01Let's end this, Tessa.
01:24:02No, no, no, no.
01:24:05Please, please don't have this, okay?
01:24:06I know I'm selfish and I'm scared, but that's the girl you fell for, isn't it?
01:24:12Just give me more time.
01:24:14Please.
01:24:15I've compromised everything for you, but not this.
01:24:17If you're not willing to stand beside me in the light, then we're going to go back to just being siblings.
01:24:21This was your plan all along, wasn't it?
01:24:27You've always wanted to own me, and now that you do, you're going back to her.
01:24:32To Charlotte.
01:24:33You love her, don't you?
01:24:36I am going back to her.
01:24:38And we never divorced.
01:24:39And I don't know whether I love her.
01:24:41I just know that this house doesn't feel like home without her.
01:24:47She's not coming back.
01:24:49She will.
01:24:51Charlotte loves me.
01:24:52If I find her, she'll come back.
01:24:56Then what makes you so sure?
01:24:58Have you forgotten all the terrible things you did to her all because of me?
