After eight years by Theo Aster’s side, Esme Blume is attacked by his first love, Gina Fox, and shoved into the water in a deliberate attempt on her life. But the real betrayal comes when Theo, instead of defending her, coldly demands that she apologize to Gina. Heartbroken, Esme calls off their wedding and walks away—but Theo, blind to her pain, dismisses it as nothing more than a tantrum.

Short filmTranscript
00:02In my eighth year with Theo, his first love pushed me into the river, yet he made me apologize to
00:09her.
00:10Since you're fine, apologize to Gina, and let's put an end behind this.
00:17She pushed me into the river. I didn't fall, and by myself, you jumped in yourself to trick Theo and
00:25gain his sympathy. I did not...
00:28Enough! Ask me.
00:30When did you become such manipulative liar?
00:33Theo, don't you believe me?
00:40As we threw the hairpin you gave me into the river, I must find it.
00:45Calm down. Go and find that hairpin, or don't bother coming home.
00:58Theo!
01:00Theo!
01:02Theo!
01:05Ever since Gina came back, I've been your fiancé and name only.
01:10But I kept holding on.
01:13Now, I'm done.
01:19Theo, it's over between us.
01:36Hi, Esme. Here to see Theo? He's at the hospital with that other woman.
01:40Shush.
01:41Um, we'll be on our way.
01:42Uh, we'll be on our way. See you.
01:48You're lucky she's so nice. Any other woman would have given you a good scolding.
01:52I still really fall in for that woman?
01:54But he and Esme have applied to get married.
01:58As great as she is, if he doesn't love her, what's the point?
02:07Come in.
02:14Morning, Joe.
02:15Oh.
02:15I need to withdraw my marriage application.
02:20Morning, Joe. I need to withdraw my marriage application.
02:23Oh, what happened? Theo just submitted it yesterday. The higher-ups haven't approved it yet.
02:28Why do you need it now? Are you calling it off?
02:33There's a mistake with my details. I need to correct them before we resubmit.
02:37Oh, that's good. I thought Gina Fox was causing problems again.
02:44You are Theo's fiancé. He needs to cool it with Gina. It doesn't look good. I'll have a chat with
02:50him.
02:52Thanks, Joe. But it's alright. Nowadays, it's all about love on your own terms.
03:00Love on your own terms?
03:17I plan to give up on Western University and spend my days married to Theo. There's no point now.
03:36School starts in five days.
03:38Theo, I'll be gone soon to start a new life without you.
03:44I'll be gone soon to start a new life without you.
03:57Gina's been feverish since the river incident. She's too ill to look after Meg. So they move here for a
04:03few days. Cling out your bedroom for them.
04:05Uncle Theo, she's the bad lady who hurt Mommy. I hate her.
04:09Theo, Esme's never liked us. She'll never agree to this. Let's go.
04:16Sure.
04:17What?
04:21Sure.
04:24You want my bedroom, right? Go ahead.
04:29Good. Since you admit your mistake, you can skip the apology for pushing her into the river.
04:35I won't hold it against you for losing the hairpin, too.
04:39But Gina hasn't fully recovered yet.
04:41As my future wife, you're responsible for taking care of both of them.
04:46Fine.
04:51What were you doing in your room?
04:54Nothing much. I was just clearing out old stuff.
04:59I'll prepare their room.
05:05Have a seat.
05:23You haven't had new clothes for a while.
05:26I've saved off my money for years to exchange for these materials.
05:30When we get married, you can make new clothes.
05:32Let's see.
06:14Take a look. If you don't like anything, I'll exchange it.
06:20Ring,
06:21earrings,
06:22bracelet,
06:23and necklace.
06:25This must have cost a bomb.
06:27Did you use all your savings?
06:29We're engaged,
06:30so I must treat you right.
06:49All these are meaningless now.
06:52Theo,
06:53I don't want you
06:54anymore either.
06:57I don't want you anymore either.
07:13Drink it while it's hot.
07:14Thanks, Theo.
07:17Theo,
07:19this mug is huge.
07:21So comforting.
07:22The temperature
07:23is perfect too.
07:26Uncle Theo,
07:27can I just
07:28call you my daddy
07:30from now on?
07:41Ismay.
07:47Ismay.
07:50Where are you going?
07:57Where are you going?
08:02Why are your hands so cold?
08:03Are you sick?
08:05I've prepared the room for them.
08:07I'll stay in the guest house.
08:09Gina and Mech will be in your room.
08:11They'll be in the master with me.
08:13Leo.
08:17You must have been mistaken,
08:19or are just drunk.
08:20Esmay,
08:22don't be so stubborn.
08:22you know Gina's husband asked me
08:25to look after them before he died.
08:27You must be responsible for them.
08:32Good.
08:33Gina doesn't hold the incident against you,
08:35so be reasonable.
08:42Don't do that!
08:43Hey, Theo!
08:44Theo!
08:46Theo.
08:48I don't care
08:49what you do with Gina,
08:51so please
08:52stay out of my way.
08:53Our marriage has been approved,
08:54and the wedding
08:56is just days away.
08:58Why are you acting this way?
09:01Yeah,
09:02the wedding is just a few days away.
09:04And yet,
09:05you know nothing
09:06about our wedding plans,
09:07do you?
09:08What's this?
09:08Why are you acting like this?
09:11If you don't want to share
09:12a room with me,
09:13I'll sleep outside.
09:17Fine.
09:21Get out!
09:22Hey!
09:29She's been acting weird
09:30ever since she fell into that river.
09:57Oh, no!
09:58She's got the marriage application!
10:03How dare you go through my things!
10:05Get out!
10:07You're a meanie!
10:09I hate you!
10:10You're a meanie!
10:11I hate you!
10:12Meg!
10:15Esme!
10:16What did you do to Meg?
10:17Keep an eye on your daughter.
10:18She has no right to touch my things.
10:20I'll let her slide.
10:21But one day,
10:22the world will teach her a lesson.
10:24So what if she was going through your things?
10:27You and Theo aren't married yet!
10:29You have no say in this house!
10:40And even if you were,
10:42he will always love me more than you.
10:48How dare you!
10:50You know you deserve it!
10:52What's happening here?
10:54What's wrong?
10:55Theo,
10:56we're fine.
10:58Don't worry.
11:00Uncle Theo,
11:01this meanie yelled at me
11:03and slapped Mommy!
11:07Apologize immediately.
11:10Not a chance.
11:13Theo,
11:14Esme clearly doesn't want us here.
11:17We'd better leave.
11:20You're still not well.
11:22Where would you go?
11:24Esme,
11:25apologize!
11:29Esme,
11:30apologize!
11:38I did nothing wrong.
11:40I'm not the one who should apologize.
11:42It's not a negotiation.
11:43This is an order.
11:44Apologize right now!
11:46You're ordering me?
11:47You think this is the army?
11:49I am not one of your subordinates!
11:52Esme,
11:53I can't marry a woman
11:54so consumed by jealousy.
11:56If you don't apologize,
11:58I will withdraw
11:59our application immediately
12:01and call off
12:02our engagement.
12:03If you really cared
12:05about our marriage,
12:06you'd have known
12:07I already withdrew
12:08our marriage application.
12:10Esme,
12:11I'll say this one last time.
12:13Apologize!
12:15I'm leaving the city
12:16in four days anyways.
12:18No need to stir up
12:19any more trouble.
12:21It'll be best
12:22if you never found out
12:23I took our marriage application.
12:25Fine.
12:26I'll apologize to them.
12:30That's my good girl.
12:31Only a wise,
12:33reasonable,
12:33and understanding woman
12:35is fit to be my wife.
12:37Gina,
12:38I was wrong
12:39from the start.
12:40I should have never
12:41stood between you two.
12:42Don't worry.
12:43From now on,
12:44I won't stop you
12:45from being with Theo.
12:46Whatever you want to do with him,
12:48and wherever you want to do it,
12:50I won't object.
13:00Isn't the pocket watch
13:01our token of love?
13:02It should be with my mom.
13:04Why do you have it?
13:08Why did you take back
13:09our token of love?
13:13I should have locked
13:14my suitcase.
13:15Then that brat
13:16wouldn't have been able
13:17to go through my things.
13:21I took her back
13:22a few days ago.
13:23It's my parents' anniversary
13:24in a few days.
13:25I was going to visit
13:26the cemetery
13:26and show them.
13:28It's my bad.
13:30We'll be married soon.
13:31We shouldn't pay
13:32our respect to your parents.
13:33I'll go with you.
13:34I'll let your bad behavior slide.
13:37This time,
13:38for your father's sake.
13:40Oh, thank you
13:41for your generosity.
13:51I'll be starting
13:52my new life
13:53in just one more day.
14:06Thanks, Gina.
14:11I'm so sorry, Esme.
14:12Didn't know
14:13whether you'd be eating,
14:14so I didn't make you any.
14:17Theo?
14:18Esme,
14:19it's all my fault.
14:20Don't take it out on Theo.
14:22I just wanted to know.
14:23I just wanted to know
14:24whether you're coming
14:25with me
14:26to the cemetery.
14:27If you aren't,
14:28I'm off.
14:31I promised you,
14:32so of course I'll go.
14:36Theo.
14:37Let me take this.
14:39Theo.
14:42What's wrong?
14:44I'm a bit dizzy.
14:47It's all your fault,
14:48you meanie.
14:49You pushed my mom
14:50into the water
14:50and now she's sick.
14:52I hate you.
14:53Hang in there.
14:53We'll get you to the hospital.
14:59You go on ahead.
15:01Once Gina's fine,
15:02I'll meet you
15:02at the cemetery.
15:20Dad,
15:22I've been accepted
15:23into a mechanical engineering course
15:25at Western University.
15:26I've brought my ticket
15:27and I'll leave tomorrow.
15:29Dad,
15:31Mom,
15:32please forgive me
15:34once I begin my studies.
15:38I won't be able
15:39to visit you as much.
15:41Also,
15:42Dad,
15:43I cannot fulfill
15:44your last wish.
15:47I won't marry Theo.
16:00Theo,
16:01you didn't even
16:02keep your last promise
16:03to me.
16:04If you don't show up,
16:05I'm never waiting
16:07for you again.
16:10I'll be able
16:11I'll be able
16:11to see you as much.
16:17I'll be able
16:18I'll be able
16:18to see you as much.
16:26Riko,
16:27what are you doing?
16:28My sister said
16:29you haven't
16:30consummated your marriage.
16:31Will Theo still want you?
16:33If you aren't a virgin...
16:35Don't you dare!
16:36The police will hunt you down!
16:40If Theo leaves you,
16:41my sister will
16:42rightfully become
16:43his wife!
16:43This is your final warning!
16:45Let me go!
16:46It's too late for you,
16:47you bad bitch!
16:53Hey, you!
17:06Riko!
17:08My poor Riko!
17:09What happened?
17:10Are you okay?
17:11Gina,
17:13Theo,
17:14Esme
17:15went crazy
17:16and stabbed me!
17:18I bled so much.
17:21Esme!
17:22If you have a problem
17:23with me,
17:24take it out on me,
17:25not him!
17:25Why did you hurt him?
17:27He's just a child!
17:30Riko tried to assault me
17:32and I stabbed him
17:33while escaping.
17:36Theo,
17:37you've got to believe me.
17:42Esme,
17:42have you no shame
17:43to make us
17:44such foul lies?
17:46Riko's a good kid.
17:47he'd never do
17:48something like that!
17:50Gina.
17:55Theo,
17:56a while ago,
17:57Esme came to my workplace.
17:59When she found out
18:00you got me that job,
18:02she went mad
18:03and started yelling
18:04and threatening me.
18:06Today,
18:06after work,
18:07she rushed out at me
18:09and stabbed me
18:10with scissors,
18:12yelling she'd kill me
18:13and that Jean
18:13is at home record.
18:14So the truth
18:15is finally out.
18:16Esme,
18:17you hurt my brother
18:18to get back at me.
18:21Theo,
18:22she's your fiancé.
18:24I won't make this
18:24difficult for you.
18:27Riko,
18:28let this go.
18:29We won't press charges.
18:33Theo,
18:34you've known me
18:34for years.
18:35Surely,
18:36you don't believe
18:36what they said,
18:37right?
18:40Calm down,
18:41everyone.
18:41Mr. Astor,
18:42as soon as we've done
18:44our investigations,
18:45we'll release
18:46your fiancé.
18:46No need,
18:47officer.
18:48Handle this by the book.
18:50Detain her
18:50as long as necessary.
18:52No special treatment
18:53for her.
18:55Theo,
18:57don't you believe me?
18:59Esme,
18:59you've really
19:00disappointed me.
19:01I thought this was just
19:03a woman's petty jealousy,
19:04but now you've actually
19:06assaulted someone.
19:07You must face
19:08the consequences
19:09for your actions.
19:10My train leaves tomorrow.
19:12I can't stand here.
19:13Theo,
19:14I'm begging you.
19:15Please believe me.
19:17I'm begging you.
19:18We need to curb
19:19your temper.
19:20I can let the
19:21small thing slide,
19:22but this is different.
19:24You assaulted
19:25someone.
19:27Take these few days
19:28to reflect.
19:29I'll come for you
19:30in three days.
19:50Officer,
19:51may I ask a favor?
19:53I need to see someone.
20:00Esme,
20:01I've spoken to the police.
20:02They'll release you today.
20:04If Theo objects,
20:06he can come
20:06to me directly.
20:08All these years,
20:09we've seen how much
20:10you cared for Theo
20:11and how you've cared
20:13for us comrades, too.
20:15But Theo is just...
20:18Joe,
20:20thank you so much.
20:21no matter where
20:22I go next.
20:23You'll always be
20:24like a brother to me.
20:26Then,
20:26as your brother,
20:27let me see you off
20:28at the train station.
20:38Joe,
20:39goodbye for now.
20:40Take care of yourself.
20:47Theo,
20:48we'll never meet again
20:49in this life.
20:54Should I go get her?
20:56She's always been afraid
20:57of the dark.
21:00Fine.
21:00Just this once.
21:02Next time,
21:02I won't give in.
21:06Theo!
21:08It's so early.
21:09Where are you going?
21:10I'm going to get Esme out.
21:12I'll be back soon.
21:15She's the future
21:16captain's wife.
21:18If you let her out now,
21:19you'll look like
21:20you're abusing
21:21your power.
21:22Plus,
21:23she'll only feel
21:23emboldened
21:24to continue behaving boldly.
21:26Better let her
21:27cool off in there
21:28for a few days.
21:29I'll discipline her
21:30once she's back.
21:32But...
21:34Theo!
21:35Theo!
21:35Theo!
21:36Theo!
21:43Mr. Astor!
21:44Why are you here
21:45so early?
21:46Good timing.
21:47I've got something
21:48for you.
21:49Where's Esme?
21:50Has she confessed?
21:51If she admits
21:51she's wrong,
21:52I can let it slide.
21:54Forget it.
21:55She's too stubborn.
21:57I'll just deal
21:57with her later.
21:59Let her out.
22:01Didn't you know
22:01Miss Bloom
22:03has already left?
22:04What did you say?
22:07She left last night.
22:09Outrageous!
22:10She's my wife!
22:11She should know better
22:12than to pave
22:13so disgracefully.
22:14But...
22:14She said
22:15she's not your wife.
22:16She said
22:17to pass this to you.
22:19She said
22:20it'll explain everything.
22:32That pocket watch
22:33is token of her love.
22:35It's supposed to be
22:36with my mom.
22:37Why is it with you?
22:38Why have you
22:39taken our token back?
22:41I took it back
22:41a few days ago.
22:43My parents'
22:43anniversary
22:44is in three days.
22:45I want to take it
22:46to their grave.
22:48She secretly withdrew
22:50our marriage application
22:51too.
23:01Esme,
23:02I never agreed to this.
23:03You cannot leave me.
23:05I won't allow it.
23:15Thea, we will never meet again, in this life.
23:21Esme!
23:26Esme!
23:43Help me wear this.
23:45It'll symbolize your pledge to me to commit to us.
23:59May God bless us with a long and happy relationship.
24:03I'll never take it off.
24:07Theo, if this breaks off, you must get me another, okay?
24:12Sure.
24:18Esme!
24:21Hey, Esme!
24:23Esme!
24:28Esme!
24:29I'll not allow this!
24:31Esme!
24:35Esme, I never said I didn't want to marry you.
24:44Theo!
24:47Wake up already!
24:49She doesn't want to marry you.
24:51She came all alone nursing a fever to withdraw the application.
24:55Yet, you didn't notice a thing.
24:58How could she do that?
25:00Why didn't you stop her?
25:01Gina's daughter tore up that application in front of you, but you did nothing.
25:06Esme's never getting back with you.
25:10She'd never leave me.
25:12It's just a tantrum.
25:13She thinks threatening to call off the marriage will make me give in.
25:19I don't believe the girl who's been following me around since she was 10, taking care of me, and obsessed
25:26with me, will ever leave me.
25:43Dale, we haven't received any news of Esme.
25:46I'll call you right away if I have anything.
25:54Esme, when you come back, I'll resubmit our application.
25:58I don't believe you can bear to leave this place.
26:00Or me.
26:04Theo, where's Esme?
26:06We haven't seen her for a while.
26:08Look, she taught me how to cure this mate.
26:10I wanted to thank her properly.
26:12When is she going to be back?
26:13She'll be back in a few days.
26:15Did you two have a fight?
26:18She's such a kind and pleasant girl.
26:21You must treat her well.
26:23Or you'll break her heart.
26:26Haven't I done enough?
26:27I've given her everything I have.
26:30Hasn't all your attention gone to that woman, Gina?
26:35Her late husband asked me to take care of them.
26:37Since when does that mean bringing her home?
26:39I overheard Gina's daughter telling Esme once.
26:43That you were her father and that they were your family and that Esme should leave.
26:48Anyone other than Esme would have slapped her for that.
26:51What?
27:04Mag, what are you hiding?
27:06N-nothing.
27:08Give it to me.
27:15That's enough!
27:16Esme, when did you become such a manipulative liar?
27:22Theo, why won't you believe me?
27:27Hairpin?
27:28Esme, it's for the hairpin you gave me.
27:30It's in the river.
27:31I have to find it.
27:33Calm down.
27:35Find that hairpin.
27:37Or, don't bother coming home.
27:40Didn't Gina say Esme threw this into the river?
27:43Mag, why do you have this?
27:47Mag, answer me!
27:50Mag, answer me!
27:52I don't know, Uncle Theo!
27:54I really don't know!
28:00Theo, Rico's been arrested again.
28:03Please come with me to the police station.
28:08Theo!
28:18Theo!
28:19Gina!
28:20Gina!
28:21Gina!
28:21Gina!
28:22You have to help me.
28:23I didn't do anything wrong.
28:26They just arrested me without any proof.
28:30What happened?
28:31Why have you arrested him?
28:32Someone reported.
28:34Seen a man assaulting a woman in an alley a couple days ago.
28:37The location matches the area.
28:39Described by Miss Bloom.
28:41He wanted to report the incident on the day itself,
28:44but it was called away on urgent business.
28:46What?
28:49That's a lie.
28:51That's a lie.
28:52I was set up.
28:54Even if he was there, that doesn't prove anything.
28:57I...
28:57Rico's a good kid.
28:59He'd never do anything like this.
29:01Five-eye witnesses have accurately identified Rico Fox as the perpetrator.
29:06Plus, we interrogated him again.
29:08And his story is full of inconsistency and different from before.
29:13It's clear.
29:14He's lying.
29:16Rico Fox assaulted Miss Bloom.
29:19Then tried to frame her.
29:21We now have enough evidence to charge him with sexual assault.
29:27Theo, you've known me since I was a kid.
29:30Surely you don't believe their lies?
29:32Asmi, you really disappointed me.
29:34I thought this was but a woman's pity jealous.
29:36But now, you've assaulted someone.
29:40You'll have to face the consequences.
29:43Theo, please.
29:44I'm begging you.
29:45Please believe me.
29:46Please.
29:50Theo, please help Rico.
29:53He's my only brother.
29:54If anything happens to him, I will never forgive myself.
29:57How dare you go after my woman?
30:00You will pay for this.
30:05Theo, I'm begging you.
30:07Please help Rico.
30:08He's still a kid.
30:10I'm sure this is just a misunderstanding.
30:13He's no kid.
30:14He's well aware.
30:15When we arrested him, he'd keep bragging about his powerful brother-in-law.
30:22Who would bail him out no matter what he did?
30:24Those aren't the words from an ignorant and innocent child.
30:29He's well aware of what he did.
30:31But he'll be sentenced to death for sexual assault.
30:34So what?
30:35He brought the son himself.
30:37No, please.
30:38Gina.
30:39Please save me.
30:41I don't want to go to jail.
30:44Theo.
30:45For the sake of our years of friendship, please help Rico.
30:49If he goes to jail, his life will be ruined.
30:53If Rico had got this way, Asmi's life would have been ruined too.
30:57He gets exactly what he deserves.
31:00This can't be.
31:01I can't.
31:03I can't go to jail.
31:05I can't.
31:07It's all her fault.
31:08That bitch tricked and seduced me.
31:11It's her fault I've been this best.
31:13Gina.
31:14Why didn't you finish the job?
31:16You should have drowned her back then.
31:19Shush, Rico.
31:22Gina.
31:23Why didn't you finish the job?
31:25You should have just drowned her back then.
31:27Shush, Rico.
31:30Shush, Rico's in shock.
31:32He's not making sense.
31:33Theo.
31:34Don't mind what he says.
31:39She pushed me into the water.
31:41How else could I end up in the water?
31:44You jumped in yourself.
31:46To gain Theo's sympathy.
31:48I did not.
31:50That's enough, Asmi.
31:52When did you become such manipulative liar?
31:56Theo.
31:57Don't you believe me?
32:05Gina.
32:07Gina.
32:08So you were the one lying to me all along.
32:14Gina.
32:16So you were the liar all along.
32:19You pushed Asmi into the river.
32:22And she never took your hairpin, did she?
32:25No.
32:26I can explain.
32:28Explain to me why you pushed her into the river.
32:31What else have you been lying about?
32:38So this is the real you.
32:40What a joke.
32:42I've known you for years.
32:44But it feels like I'm seeing you for the first time today.
32:50Asmi.
32:50No matter where you are, I must get you back.
32:59Class dismissed.
33:03I've barely thought about Theo for the past two months.
33:07Didn't think life without him would be so free and beautiful.
33:12Check her out.
33:13Asmi is really pretty.
33:14Someone from back home is pursuing her.
33:17It's just been two months and she's gotten 20 to 30 letters.
33:20I heard she's a snob.
33:22Returns every letter unopened.
33:24Hot girls always get away with it.
33:26Erin.
33:27Hey, Erin.
33:28Check her out.
33:29Isn't Asmi pretty?
33:36Hey.
33:40You're talking to me?
33:42Have you got the right person?
33:43Here.
33:44Take my jacket.
33:45Your white dress is a bit of translucent.
33:53Thanks.
33:54No problem.
33:55Return it to me and at our next class.
34:00Let's go.
34:09Ask me.
34:10More letters came for you.
34:12But I accidentally tore it slightly.
34:15There's money inside.
34:17But I didn't take any.
34:18It's all in there.
34:19Sorry about that.
34:24It's okay.
34:25Thanks.
34:27Aren't you going to read it?
34:29Are you going to return it to the postman again?
34:33Even the money?
34:37You'll return all your letters unopened.
34:40Even the postman knows you by now.
34:42But who's writing to you?
34:45Anyway.
34:48Someone who doesn't matter anymore.
34:51All right, then.
34:53He may not matter to you.
34:55But you clearly matter to him.
34:57Otherwise, he won't keep sending you letters of money.
35:03Sometimes, what's too late might as well not matter at all.
35:12Thea?
35:14What's he doing here?
35:18Impossible.
35:19He'd never leave Gina to chase me across the country.
35:23My sudden departure and my defiance.
35:26Surely his ego would never stand for all that.
35:29All his letters have been returned unopened.
35:32His patience should be running out soon.
35:35Asmi?
35:36Asmi!
35:37Are you okay?
35:39I'm fine.
35:40Let's get some food.
35:41Okay.
35:57Hmm.
35:59Washing Aaron's jacket on?
36:02Hmm.
36:03I don't expect Aaron to care about you.
36:05He always seems...
36:07So loose and cool.
36:12Don't judge a book by its cover.
36:13He just seems cold on the outside.
36:16Fine, fine, fine.
36:18So, when are you returning the jacket?
36:21You two would have looked so good together.
36:24Like a match made in heaven.
36:32You're not getting rid of me easily.
36:34I'm coming with you.
36:35I can't wait to see how the special moment plays out between you two.
36:39Don't be silly.
36:40If not for you, I won't even remember his name.
36:43But he remembers yours.
36:44Oh, you have no idea how Aaron's mind works.
36:49Are you okay?
36:51My stomach hurts.
36:53I need to run.
36:55Asmi, don't return the jacket.
36:57You must wait for me.
37:03Excuse me.
37:04Make way, please.
37:06Hey, careful.
37:12I'm so sorry.
37:13Sorry about that.
37:15Are you okay?
37:17Asmi.
37:21Asmi!
37:23I've already let him go.
37:25So why does seeing him again still hurt me?
37:33Get your hands off her.
37:35Sorry, but I don't take orders.
37:37Talk to me like that, and I'm even less likely to let go.
37:45Don't touch him.
37:46This is my school.
37:48You have no authority here.
37:54Done venting?
37:55If yes, come home with me.
38:02Done venting?
38:03If yes, come home with me.
38:05We don't have a home together.
38:09When you brought Gina and Meg into your home,
38:13they became the family you chose.
38:15I can't explain.
38:16I was only honoring my friend's last wish.
38:18I swear, nothing improper ever happened between us.
38:23I was never interested in her from the start.
38:27No need to explain.
38:29I don't care anymore.
38:31It's too late for any of that.
38:34Theo?
38:35You and I are over.
38:38But I'm your husband.
38:41Huh.
38:41What husband?
38:43You're just my ex-boyfriend.
38:45It takes two to break up.
38:47I never agreed to this.
38:51It takes two to break up.
38:53I never agreed to this.
38:56Also, it's fine you returned all my letters unopened.
39:00But why did you refuse the money?
39:02Do you have enough to live on?
39:04You can be mad at me.
39:06But don't do this to yourself.
39:08At this point, you still think I'm just throwing a tantrum?
39:13I know Gina was an issue.
39:15But she won't be one from now on.
39:20Let go of me!
39:21Don't move!
39:39Don't move!
39:52Don't move!
39:55Don't move!
39:56Theos...
39:56Don't move!
40:03I'm not going to move!
40:08yourself. Nothing's changed.
40:10The moment I took this off, it became
40:12trash to me.
40:13Yet in your arrogance,
40:15you still try to force me to put it on.
40:19Theo,
40:21you disgust me.
40:26I don't want this.
40:28And I don't want you.
40:30Theo, do you understand?
40:32I don't want you anymore.
40:35Stay away.
40:36From me, from now on.
40:39Esme!
40:40You disgust me.
40:41I don't want you to.
40:43I have no words.
40:49I have no words.
40:54还是你引你太长,我失去方向
40:59跌跌转转转,上了一刀围墙
41:03把自己围起来疗伤
41:06Stop following me!
41:08Where's it going to give my jacket back?
41:10You're still holding on to it.
41:11What? You like it? Don't want to let go?
41:14Sorry about that. I forgot.
41:16I've washed it. Thank you.
41:19It's okay. I'm a grown man.
41:21I'm not that pretty.
41:23Just cry if you want to. Don't hold back.
41:26I won't judge you.
41:35I'm not crying.
41:37Hey! Don't be so stubborn!
41:40It'll backfire!
41:50Asmi, you didn't bring me along when you returned Aaron's jacket.
41:53That was pretty inconsiderate.
41:55But I won't be mad about it.
41:56I'll still share my new fun with you.
41:59You should read more books.
42:00It's better than just fun.
42:01Aw, jeez, Asmi.
42:04Oh, Asmi, listen to me.
42:05There's this new tall, handsome guy at school.
42:08He's a captain.
42:09He's always around here.
42:10Next time, I'll bring you along.
42:14Thea?
42:14Yeah, him!
42:16Hey!
42:17How do you know about him?
42:18Don't you usually avoid going out?
42:20Isn't he from Sutton?
42:22Why is he staying in Weston?
42:24Oh, who cares about that?
42:26He's handsome.
42:27I just love checking them out.
42:29Sophia, don't even think about it.
42:31Sure, Mr. Astro is handsome, but that has nothing to do with us.
42:34He only transferred here because his wife got into college.
42:39I see.
42:42Well, that's too bad.
42:47It's been a while since I've seen Theo.
42:49I thought someone as proud as him would leave.
42:51But he actually transferred to Weston.
42:57This is your favorite.
42:59It's veggies and lard filling.
43:00They're still warm.
43:01Even if you have an early class, make sure to eat breakfast.
43:04I thought I had made myself clear.
43:12This is unbelievable.
43:14Speak of the devil.
43:17Sophia just mentioned Mr. Astro and today he shows up right below our dorm.
43:21Wow, she really got to meet him.
43:23I saw him too.
43:24Tell me, do you think Mr. Astro's wife could be staying in the same building as us?
43:30Hey, Esme, did you see Mr. Astro today?
43:35Hey, Esme, did you see Mr. Astro today?
43:38How does he look?
43:39Is he handsome?
43:40I-
43:41Come on.
43:42Esme is so reserved.
43:44Even if he was in front of her, she wouldn't notice.
43:46Hmm, that's true.
43:48Esme!
43:49Esme!
43:49Esme!
43:50Mr. Astro asked me to give you this letter.
43:52There's money inside.
43:53He's worried you'll shoot on money and that life will be hard.
43:56He said it's okay if you don't want to meet him, but you must take the money.
44:00Okay.
44:06Esme, you are Mr. Astro's wife, right?
44:09The letter you got before must have been from him too.
44:16Are you two fighting?
44:19We've called off the marriage, so I'm not his wife anymore.
44:22Sofia, thanks for helping this time, but can you not bring things from him to me next time?
44:30Uh, uh, sure.
44:31I'll definitely on your side.
44:33The gossip loving Sofia doesn't have any questions for me this time?
44:37Hmm, it must be something unpleasant if you don't want me to bring this up.
44:42With him acting that way, you still won't take the money.
44:46Then he must be in the wrong.
44:48Don't worry.
44:48I just enjoy gossip.
44:50I won't pry into privacy.
44:53Yeah, us too.
45:03I plan to return the money to Theo when I see him again.
45:07He shows up without warning every time.
45:10Now that I want to return the money, he hasn't appeared in a while.
45:14See her?
45:15She says may bloom.
45:20See her?
45:21She says may bloom.
45:22Oh, it's her.
45:23She's pretty.
45:23I didn't expect her to do such things.
45:25We really can't judge a book by its cover.
45:29What are you talking about?
45:31What did I do?
45:40You evil mistress!
45:41I'll kill you, you wicked woman!
45:54Esme, you evil mistress!
45:56It's all your fault!
45:57Uncle Theo no longer wants mommy and me.
45:59He didn't even come home!
46:06Esme, you homewrecker!
46:08It's all your fault!
46:09Uncle Theo no longer wants mommy and me.
46:10He didn't even come home!
46:12We can't judge a book by its cover.
46:14You always seem so well-behaved and honest, but you're secretly scandalous.
46:17Theo's wife and child are here to confront you.
46:20What a disgrace to our school!
46:22I'm not a homewrecker!
46:22Theo has a daughter.
46:23Doesn't that make you a homewrecker?
46:25You should be expelled from school.
46:27Esme, I've been looking for you for quite some time.
46:30It really is not easy to find someone in Western U.
46:33We finally met after half of the people in the school realized that they needed to find you.
46:38Didn't you come here to spread rumors on purpose?
46:41You never wanted things to go well for me.
46:43You're pretending to be good now.
46:45Where's Theo?
46:46I don't know.
46:47How could you not know?
46:48He transferred here because of you.
46:50He would have better opportunities.
46:52What does that have to do with me?
46:54It has nothing to do with you either.
46:57You can't even find out where he is, after all.
46:59Bad woman!
47:00Homewrecker!
47:01You're picking on my mom again!
47:05I'm not arguing as she's just a kid.
47:07You've raised her to be a liar.
47:08Aren't you worried about the consequences you'll face once you're out in the real world?
47:12Apologize to me!
47:13How dare you try to teach me?
47:15You should worry about yourself first.
47:18If you don't want your reputation to be ruined, tell me where Theo is right now.
47:25I used to be foolish, so I didn't want to fight and give up on Theo.
47:31But Theo means nothing to me now.
47:33Do you think I'll still put up with you and your ill-mannered child making a scene in front of
47:38me?
47:39So, you're deliberately hiding Theo's whereabouts.
47:45Everyone, check this out!
47:47This homewrecker is picking on me!
47:49Why would a prestigious place like Weston Yu produce such a shameless homewrecker?
47:55Gina, you're looking for Theo with such hostility and aggressiveness.
48:00Not afraid of him seeing your true colors?
48:03How dare you mock me?
48:13I said I wouldn't hit Meg back, but I never said I wouldn't hit you back.
48:17How dare you hit me?
48:18Don't you know I'm bold?
48:20Is one slap not enough?
48:23Esme, I'm warning you.
48:25You better know your place.
48:26Back out immediately.
48:27Stay away from Theo.
48:29Stop bothering him.
48:29Otherwise, I'll come to here every day to make a scene.
48:33Looks like Theo hasn't told you yet.
48:35We broke up quite a while.
48:37Your relationship with him is none of my business.
48:40You treat him like a treasure, but you should ask if he feels the same.
48:44That's impossible.
48:45You gave up the status of a captain's wife.
48:49I don't believe it.
48:50I won't believe it no matter what.
48:54I won't believe it no matter what.
48:56Exactly, my mom and I will never believe you.
48:58You're just a bad woman full of lies.
49:00You've been with Uncle Theo for years.
49:02Why would you possibly give up?
49:04Esme, are you playing hard to get by coming to West End on purpose?
49:08Do you want Theo to feel guilty and not move on?
49:12Excuse me.
49:19She's got someone new now.
49:21Theo has already been forgotten.
49:37Esme is really a homewrecker and a great seducer.
49:40She seduced a married man first.
49:42Now she's even targeting her male classmate.
49:44Darren isn't just an ordinary student.
49:46He's the grandson of the Holtz from Baxter.
49:49Any questions?
49:51If not, get out of here.
49:53I didn't mean to pick on her.
49:55I just want to know where Theo is.
49:57But she refuses to share even that much information with me.
50:01It seems you're a fool.
50:03What?
50:04You're too dumb to understand us.
50:07You...
50:07Don't act innocent and play the victim.
50:09That doesn't work on me.
50:11I've seen it all before.
50:12She's already give up on Theo quite a long time.
50:14If you're looking for him, try somewhere else.
50:16It's usually to ask her,
50:17Your good man Theo has been dumped like trash by her.
50:21Do you understand now?
50:22Even a fool should get it by this point.
50:25I don't believe she'd give up on Theo so easily.
50:27You'll let her fool you.
50:29Exactly.
50:30This wicked woman stayed with Uncle Theo for eight years.
50:32There's no way she'd just give up.
50:34She's a homewrecker.
50:37Meg, you said I've been with Theo for eight years.
50:40But you're not even eight years old yet.
50:42Who's the homewrecker here?
50:47Everyone, I'm just an upright.
50:50I have nothing to fear from idle gossip.
50:52If one has good judgment,
50:54They should be able to see who the real homewrecker is.
51:02Meg is too young to understand.
51:04And so do you.
51:05She's only five years old.
51:07But I've been with Theo for eight years.
51:09Who on earth is the homewrecker?
51:12I know you hope that Meg is Theo's child.
51:15But she isn't.
51:17You know better than anyone.
51:18Don't fool yourself while lying to others.
51:21How shameless.
51:22Gina brought her here to deceive and manipulate us.
51:25Meg is so young.
51:27But she already lies easily.
51:28Gina isn't the legal wife.
51:30Why is she so confident for her?
51:31We were almost tricked.
51:32We even picked on Esme.
51:34Gina's been out of line.
51:35Get out of here.
51:36Get out.
51:38Get out.
51:38Get out.
51:38Get out.
51:39Go away.
51:40Get out.
51:40Esme.
51:41You're lucky this time.
51:43Just you wait and see.
51:44Don't think it's over.
51:53I bumped into you every time I was in trouble.
51:56Thank you for willing to sacrifice your reputation to help me today.
52:01Thank you too.
52:03For choosing to believe in me.
52:07I only believe what I see.
52:12What happened today also made me realize that it's time to end my relationship with Theo.
52:28Hello.
52:29I'm looking for Theo.
52:31Esme, I've done a lot to track down Theo's location.
52:35Unexpectedly, you came to the military base to seduce him on purpose.
52:41Hello, ma'am.
52:42Who are you?
52:42I'm Gina Fox.
52:43I'm here to find Theo Astor.
52:45This lady Esme has been bothering him for a long time.
52:51He has made it clear that he is no longer interested in her.
52:53But she came to the military base to disturb him.
52:56How shameful.
52:58You just have to pass on my message to him.
53:00But.
53:01I'm doing this for your own good.
53:03Theo gets upset whenever he sees her.
53:05If you offend him because of her, he will definitely punish you.
53:09This.
53:09Gina, you must have been having a hard time, huh?
53:13You.
53:13What are you talking about?
53:15If your life were getting better, you'd be living inside now.
53:18You wouldn't just be here talking nonsense.
53:22You're afraid I might meet Theo.
53:23Theo doesn't know that.
53:25You came to my school to cause trouble, right?
53:28You.
53:31She caused trouble at your school.
53:36Theo.
53:36Theo, I finally found you.
53:40What trouble did she cause?
53:42Did it affect you?
53:43Theo.
53:45Why didn't you tell me that you transferred to Weston?
53:48I spent months searching for you.
53:50Why don't you look at me at all?
53:53What were you doing at Weston, you?
53:56Tell me.
53:58I went to there to find Esme.
54:01I just wanted to ask her about your whereabouts.
54:04But Esme refused to tell me.
54:07She even cozied up with another man while insulting me.
54:11Gina.
54:11Did you cause trouble for Esme again?
54:16Gina.
54:17Did you cause trouble for Esme?
54:20No, I didn't.
54:21I just care about you too much.
54:23Gina.
54:24Even though you've been dishonest,
54:26I don't want to break my promise to Adam.
54:30When I left Sutton,
54:31I entrusted a few people to look after you and Meg.
54:34In hindsight,
54:35I shouldn't give you any hope at all.
54:37And this is the case.
54:39I'll stop providing you
54:41the monthly living expenses.
54:43From now on,
54:44she's not allowed to show up around here.
54:46Yes, sir.
54:47Let's go in.
54:51You promised to take care of me,
54:53no matter where you go.
54:55I'll bring Meg and follow you.
54:56Don't ever think about abandoning us.
54:59Riko was sentenced to jail.
55:00I have no relatives left.
55:02You're the only one I can rely on.
55:05Don't abandon me.
55:07Gina.
55:08You can never rely on anyone else,
55:10except yourself.
55:12I hate your shamelessness.
55:13But I also hope you'll realize soon,
55:16take good care of Meg
55:18while there's still time.
55:22Tim!
55:23Tim!
55:29Have a seat.
55:44Asmay,
55:45why are you here today?
55:48I've never used the money.
55:49You don't have to give money
55:50to Gina and me.
55:56I've never had anything with Gina.
55:59There's never been any intimacy between us.
56:02I swear,
56:03you want to study
56:04so I won't disrupt you.
56:06I'll wait until you've calmed down.
56:09I used to think
56:11you didn't like me that much
56:12because you liked Gina.
56:14But today I found out
56:15that you don't have feelings for her either.
56:18Theo,
56:19you only love
56:20yourself.
56:21I finally realize it now.
56:23In the past,
56:24I didn't know how to love someone.
56:26But from now on,
56:27I'll learn.
56:28Tomorrow I'll apply
56:29for a transfer to Ruzbi.
56:31You won't see me again.
56:32I know you only believe in yourself.
56:34Refusing you is useless.
56:36I'm telling you this now
56:37so that you'll see
56:38how determined I am.
56:40You're going to Ruzbi?
56:43Yes.
56:46Life in Ruzbi is tough.
56:47Everyone must hide
56:48their identity for confidentiality.
56:50They're not allowed
56:51to step out of Ruzbi for years.
56:53They must dedicate themselves to research.
56:55Outside can't contact them.
56:57Esme,
56:58are you being cruel to yourself
56:59just to leave me?
57:01I used to be confined
57:03to a small world.
57:04My entire world
57:05revolved around your happiness,
57:06anger,
57:07and sorrow.
57:07But after stepping out,
57:09I realized that
57:09there are countless possibilities
57:11in life.
57:12Developing a country
57:13may be difficult,
57:14but that
57:15doesn't mean it's not fulfilling.
57:17Esme,
57:18please,
57:19give me one more chance.
57:20Theo,
57:21let's part ways here.
57:22The world is vast.
57:24I'll see you when I see you.
57:25I hope Gina will come
57:26to her senses soon.
57:27You too.
57:31Asme!
57:35The sun's going down.
57:36It's water under the bridge.
57:38But this is just the beginning
57:39of my bright future.
57:51Two years later,
57:52Eren showed up as well.
57:54He arched his eyebrow at me,
57:55just like when we first met.
57:58Three years later,
57:59Eren and I got together.
58:04Bride and groom,
58:05stay in clothes.
58:06Five years later,
58:07Eren and I got married.
58:09Smile.
58:10Good.
58:11Hold it.
58:12Three, two,
58:13one.
58:17I finally have a home again.
58:30Six years later,
58:31I gave birth to an adorable baby.
58:38Baby.
58:40My baby?
58:41Baby.
58:54Tio.
58:55I know you still miss Esme,
58:58but you're not young anymore.
59:01It's time to let go and move on.
59:03Esme is doing well.
59:04She sent a letter to me
59:06and your dad this year.
59:07She got married.
59:08She gave birth to a baby boy this year.
59:11She's very happy.
59:12She's doing fine without you as well.
59:19But,
59:21I feel like
59:25I haven't been doing well after losing her.
59:43I get it now.
59:45Something broken
59:48can never be fixed again.
59:50I get it now.
59:51Okay.
59:54I'm very sorry.
