00:00My mom is a lunatic retard beauty. My dad is the only one who is devoted to her.
00:05Until a fleet of black cars rushed into the town. My mom suddenly recovered her sanity.
00:11Next morning, my father's body was found, and my mother was gone with those black cars.
00:16The neighbors are furious. They're calling her a heartless monster. A disloyal wife who
00:21abandoned her savior. But they're wrong. I tipped them off. And I'm the one who killed my father.
00:27I always see my dad. Grinning, he buckled his belt. He stepped out of their bedroom.
00:32I scrambled into the corner of the basement. The next moment, he'll kick at my door.
00:38He barked at me. I rushed over immediately. My parents' room stank of filth.
00:43Mom was lying there in the mess. She was staring blankly at the ceiling.
00:47Looked like a corpse. My heart ached just looking at her. Her face was smooth and soft.
00:53But her private parts were covered in dark bruises. Dad hides his inner beast from everyone.
00:58No one knows what he does to her. I prepped the water, just the right temp.
01:02I gently started wiping her body down. I touched the marks on her thigh. And she screamed.
01:10Mom, please! Don't scream! Dad hears he'll beat you!
01:14Suddenly, I heard an axe hitting wood in the yard.
01:19Like he was carving into my heart. Mom choked back her scream instantly.
01:23The gate creaked. It was our neighbor, Betty.
01:26Is Elise okay?
01:27It's too hot. I wanted to wash her down. She refused. Now she's throwing a fit.
01:31You're far too good to her. It's a pity she doesn't understand. What are you building?
01:35A special chair to make her more comfortable while bathing.
01:38You're amazing. She's so lucky.
01:40Inside, my mom and I shared a cold shiver. It wasn't a normal chair. It was a torture device
01:45fitted with shackles. Our back room is full of these gifts. Swings and rocking horses to please
01:50her. The town thinks he's trying to please his mad wife. I'm the only one who knows what they're
01:55really for. There were so many nights he'd get drunk. I watched the horror through the cracked door.
02:01He'd tie my mom to a wooden horse. He whipped her until she was covered in blood. She'd be drenched
02:06in a cold sweat, tears screaming. But with that rag in her mouth, she couldn't make a sound.
02:11My dad would just laugh.
02:13Who would have thought? A highborn lady. Now just a dog at my feet.
02:24A highborn lady. Now just a dog at my feet.
02:28My mom? A highborn lady? To the town, he was a saint. He kept her clean. He worked extra miles
02:35in the woods. He made sure we never went without. The neighbors would sigh and praise his loyalty.
02:41God knows what she did to deserve a man like him.
02:43But I always knew. Even as a little girl, I knew he wasn't worthy of her. My mom had a
02:48natural grace,
02:49even when she was lunatic. In her rare moments of calm, her beauty made my heart ache.
02:54But my father? I loathed him in my bones. I was disgusted by his rotting yellow teeth.
02:59I hated how he'd bite her neck like a rabid dog. The older I got, the more I saw his
03:04two-faced game.
03:05In public, he was the doting father. The man who treated me like livestock at home.
03:10I don't have my own bedroom. I'm forced to sleep on a pile of rags on the floor.
03:14He told the neighbors I was scared of the dark.
03:17She begged to sleep at the foot of my bed.
03:20He pretended to save crusts of bread for mom and me. But I've caught him sneaking a cigar.
03:25He drinks expensive wine and eats like a king.
03:27Tell anyone, and I'll break your legs.
03:30In fact, even if he beat me, the town would just think I was a brat.
03:34They'd blame us for dragging down such a good man. That only made him more emboldened.
03:39But here's the biggest mystery of all. We're poor. My dad is just a forest ranger.
03:44Where did he get the money to pay for such luxuries?
03:46One night, I climbed the tree in the backyard. And I finally discovered his secret.
03:54He sneaked out of the room. He crawled under a rusted pickup truck.
03:58Then, he pulled out a small leather suitcase. The moonlight hit it and my jaw dropped.
04:03The box held stacks of cash and shining gold. He pulled out a wad of cash and pocketed it.
04:08Then, he hid the box back away. How could a poor ranger have such wealth?
04:12The next day, as soon as he left. I dug it up like a maniac.
04:18Mom, we're rich! We're leaving this hellhole!
04:21She saw the suitcase and froze on the spot. I pulled her, desperate to leave.
04:25But she gave me a wary glance. As if she had suddenly regained her sanity.
04:30Then, she totally lost it. She screamed and sent coins and cash everywhere.
04:35I scrambled to pick up the scattered treasure. Mom giggled, playing with the suitcase.
04:39Then, a hidden compartment clicked open. Out fell a breathtaking diamond necklace.
04:44Mom pressed it to her cheek and whispered to it. She looked like she'd known it her whole life.
04:50The front gate. My blood turned to absolute ice. I shoved the suitcase under my bed.
04:57Ava? Is everything okay in there?
05:00Everything's fine. Mom just dropped a bowl.
05:02I waited for her footsteps to fade. I grabbed our bags and pulled Mom to run.
05:07But as I pushed open the front door, I froze. Betty wasn't gone. She was standing there with three other
05:13women.
05:14They stared at my bags with cold eyes.
05:16Where do you think you're going, Ava?
05:17Just taking Mom for some air.
05:19They stepped closer, blocking the path.
05:21Your mother is a lunatic and you're just a brat. You stay here until your father gets back.
05:27My heart sank. We were trapped. My mom was oblivious, laughing at a flower. I heard the women whispering behind
05:34me.
05:34No wonder her dad asked us to watch them. Turn your back and the crazy one tries to bolt.
05:40Poor man. He worked so hard for this family.
05:44My stomach churned. He turned the entire town into our prison guards.
05:48Minutes later, the door slammed open.
05:50My dad was home. His face was a mask of pure rage.
05:54He headed straight for the backyard stash.
05:57My heart was drumming against my ribs.
06:03Luckily, I put the suitcase back just in time.
06:05My dad came inside with a sickening smile.
06:08He locked every door and every window.
06:10Then, he dragged out that special chair.
06:16I don't care whose idea it was to run.
06:19Don't worry, Ava.
06:21I'm not gonna hit you.
06:23Bruises make the neighbors talk.
06:25Then, he lunged for my mom.
06:26He grabbed her hair and gagged her with a rat.
06:29Can't you see that?
06:29He strapped her into that horrid chair.
06:31He mocked her while picking up a barbed whip.
06:33He ripped mom's pants off right before me.
06:35Her thighs were forced open.
06:37He struck her where the scars wouldn't show.
06:39Mom's eyes rolled back in pure pain.
06:41She couldn't even scream.
06:42I threw myself at his feet, sobbing.
06:45Stop!
06:46Please, dad!
06:47I'll never do it again!
06:48He kicked me away with cold, dead eyes.
06:51Every mistake you make, she pays the price.
06:54If she dies, it's on you.
06:56I tried to bang my head on the floor, begging.
06:59No more!
07:00No more!
07:01I'll do anything!
07:02Just stop!
07:04Every bruise you get is ten more lashes for her.
07:07I didn't dare move a muscle.
07:09I curled up on the rags all night, covering my ears tight, tears soaking the rags.
07:14For seven days, he never left her side.
07:17Once she was broken enough, he forced me out.
07:20Taking Ava out today?
07:22She needs a real future.
07:24I'm gonna find her a school in town.
07:26You think of everything.
07:29Ava, you're so lucky to have a father like him.
07:32Kept my head down, heart heavy as lead.
07:34He wasn't taking me to school at all.
07:36He feared I'd run away with mom again.
07:38He wanted to sell me off for good.
07:40Once we reached the city, he handed me over to a pedo.
07:43My dad leaned in close to the buyer.
07:45Take her far away.
07:47Somewhere she can never come back from.
07:49For a saint, he was incredibly greedy.
07:51He wouldn't drop the price by a cent.
07:53As soon as my dad turned around, the buyer spat on the ground.
07:56Serve you right, you poor bastard.
07:58It seemed the two weren't exactly happy partners.
08:01Maybe I still have a chance to save myself.
08:03I have a way for you to make more.
08:06It's a much better deal than keeping me.
08:08The man looked at me, stunned.
08:10I pulled out a crumpled photo.
08:12It was the diamond necklace from the box.
08:15Find the owner of this necklace.
08:17You'll be set for life.
08:19What's this?
08:21I saved a billionaire once.
08:24He promised me a life-changing reward.
08:28Then why didn't your father tell me?
08:29My father?
08:30He beats me every day.
08:33I'd rather die than let him touch a penny.
08:36The man's eyes flickered with greed.
08:38Fine.
08:39I'll take the gamble.
08:40But if you're lying, you're dead.
08:43My life is in your hands.
08:45We hit the streets of New York.
08:47We searched for days.
08:48Nothing.
08:51The man was losing his patience.
08:53His eyes got darker, more violent.
08:56Even I started to doubt myself.
08:58Was the necklace just stolen junk?
09:00He was about to grab my throat.
09:02Just then, a fleet of black luxury cars swept by.
09:05I stared at the lead car.
09:07There was a custom emblem on the door.
09:09My heart nearly stopped.
09:11It was an exact match.
09:12The same emblem from the necklace.
09:15The man saw the emblem on the cars.
09:17He looked like he'd seen a ghost.
09:19Are you sure this is the guy you saved?
09:21I just nodded, keeping my face like stone.
09:23Kid.
09:24His eyes wide with greed.
09:25We just hit the jackpot.
09:27That's the Scott family.
09:28The most powerful in the city.
09:30He started pacing, plotting his next move.
09:33But I didn't have time for a plan.
09:35I saw the lead black car and I just bolted.
09:37I sprinted right into the middle of the street.
09:39Tires screeched as the car slammed on its brakes.
09:42It stopped inches from my legs.
09:43The driver was swearing at me.
09:45Bodyguards grabbed my collar like I was trash.
09:48They were about to dump me on the curb.
09:51Sir, I have something for you.
09:54A gift.
09:55The car stayed dead silent.
09:56Then, I did something that shocked everyone.
09:59I ripped the filthy shoe off my foot.
10:01I tore back the lining and dug into the sole.
10:04Out came the diamond necklace.
10:06The pedo's jaw hit the floor.
10:07No wonder he could never find the necklace.
10:09It was hidden in the shoe all along.
10:12Back home, I took a gamble.
10:14I bet my dad didn't know about the secret compartment.
10:16I was right.
10:17I hid it in my shoe weeks ago.
10:19Before we left, my dad searched me everywhere.
10:21He even checked through my hair.
10:23But he had to keep up his good man image.
10:25He would never send his daughter out barefoot.
10:27And so, I carried the necklace with me.
10:29On the road, that pedo searched my bag a thousand times.
10:33He'd even pick through my pockets while I was asleep.
10:35He had no choice but to take my word for it.
10:37That I'd lost the necklace.
10:39Only by delivering me in person.
10:41Could he get his reward from the tycoon?
10:45The bodyguard stared at the necklace with pure disgust.
10:48But the second he saw the emblem, he went pale.
10:51He didn't toss me aside this time.
10:53Solemnly, he passed the necklace into the car.
10:56Then, the car door flew open.
10:58A man stepped out.
10:59Tall and powerful.
11:00He had sharp features and eyes like flint.
11:05He lunged forward and grabbed my shirt.
11:08He lifted me clean off the ground.
11:10Where did you get this?
11:12I was dangling in the air, trembling.
11:14But I wasn't shaking from fear.
11:16I was shaking because of his face.
11:18He looked exactly like my mother.
11:20Tell me!
11:21His knuckles turned bone white.
11:23His eyes flashed with shock, joy, and desperate urgency.
11:27I bit my lip until I tasted blood.
11:29It belongs to my mom.
11:36It belongs to my mom.
11:38Her name is Elise.
11:41In our town, they just call her the lunatic.
11:45Hugh dropped me to my feet.
11:46He grabbed my shoulders, gripped like iron.
11:49She's alive?
11:51Where is she?
11:52Is she...
11:52Is she okay?
11:54I couldn't hold back anymore.
11:56I broke down in tears.
12:00She's being tortured by a man named Sam Drew, a forest ranger.
12:05To the town, he's a saint.
12:07But at night, he has these chairs with shackles, wooden horses with spikes.
12:12He tie her up.
12:13He beats her until she can't even scream.
12:16She was always out of her mind.
12:18Hardly ever sober.
12:20I told him everything.
12:21The gold hidden under the truck.
12:23The whip hitting her thigh right in front of me.
12:25How he was selling me to hide the truth.
12:28Hugh's face became a mask of lethal darkness.
12:30The pedo stood shivering on the curb.
12:33Hugh Scott?
12:34He wasn't thinking about a reward anymore.
12:37He was praying for his life.
12:38Hugh Scott is the most powerful man in New York.
12:41He is my mother's own brother.
12:45Years ago, the Scott family's eldest daughter was kidnapped.
12:48The world searched, but found nothing.
12:51Hugh Scott never stopped looking.
12:53He hoped to bring his sister home.
12:55Clear the flight path!
12:57We leave now!
12:57He threw me into the back of his car.
12:59He slammed the gas, the engine screaming.
13:02Hang on tight, Ava.
13:03He said dangerously.
13:05My heart was racing faster than the car.
13:07I had one thought.
13:08Hang on, Mom.
13:09I'm coming to take you home.
13:11Hugh ordered the cars to stop a mile out.
13:14Flanked by security, we approached the town on foot.
13:16The town was quiet and peaceful.
13:18Nobody knew a storm was about to hit.
13:21Our house was on the edge of town.
13:22From a distance, I could see him.
13:25My dad.
13:26He was in the yard, chopping wood.
13:28He was humming a little tune.
13:29He looked like an honest, hardworking man.
13:32He didn't look like the beast in the dark.
13:34I watched him swing that axe.
13:39My nails dug into my palms until I bled.
13:42Hatred grew like a poison vine in my heart.
13:44Do we take him now, boss?
13:46Not yet.
13:46I need to see Elise first.
13:48We circled to the back, staying low.
13:50And there she was.
13:51My mom.
13:52She was staring at a single wildflower.
13:54She wore a dazed smile.
13:56Disheveled and covered in dirt.
13:58Her beauty still shone through.
13:59My dad finished chopping the wood.
14:01He walked over and stroked her hair.
14:03Hungry, Elise?
14:05I'll go make dinner.
14:06To a neighbor, he looked like a saint.
14:08But I knew the malice behind that smile.
14:10My mom instinctively flinched away.
14:12A flash of malice crossed my dad's face.
14:15Afraid of the neighbors watching.
14:17He stifled his rage and headed inside.
14:20Q commanded.
14:20His voice was cold enough to freeze the air.
14:23Security swarmed the yard.
14:25Dad didn't have time to drop his axe.
14:27He was slammed face first into the dirt.
14:29Who are you?
14:30What are you doing?
14:31He shrieked.
14:32Hugh walked slowly into the yard.
14:34He looked down.
14:35Do you have any idea who I am?
14:37His eyes filled with pure disgust.
14:39Dad froze.
14:40He saw the emblem on Hugh's jacket.
14:42His face went gray.
14:44I don't know you.
14:45You've got the wrong man.
14:47The wrong man?
14:48I leapt over the wall and sprinted into the yard.
14:51You filthy animal.
14:53You've tortured my mom for 10 years.
14:55Still trying to lie your way out?
14:57The noise startled my mom.
14:58The flowers dropped from her hand to the ground.
15:01She looked at us with unfocused eyes.
15:03But then, her gaze shifted to Hugh.
15:06Her pupils finally snapped into focus.
15:08Her breath hitched and her lips began to tremble.
15:10She let out broken, jagged, desperate sounds.
15:13Elise.
15:14It's me.
15:15Your brother Hugh.
15:16Hugh.
15:18I've come to take you home.
15:19My mom stared at Hugh for a long time.
15:22Tears traced paths down her cheeks.
15:24She reached out a trembling hand to his cheek.
15:26Then she jerked it back, terrified.
15:29She was terrified that this was all just a dream.
15:32Dad knew it was all over.
15:35I bought her.
15:37She's my property.
15:38She's my wife.
15:40I can do whatever I want with her.
15:42Hugh let out a cold, sharp laugh.
15:44He kicked my father back into the dust.
15:47You bought a daughter of the Scott family?
15:50You think you're actually worthy of her?
15:53He didn't just find a crazy woman.
15:56He was the one who helped kidnap her.
15:58He knew exactly who she was.
15:59He wanted the money, and he lusted after her.
16:02He bought her for a few hundred dollars, and then posed as a simple forest ranger.
16:06He kept her as a pet in this remote town.
16:09He branded her a lunatic to keep them away.
16:11The gold coins?
16:12The expensive wine?
16:14It was his cut of the ransom money.
16:15He even went so far as to sell her jewelry.
16:18A crowd of neighbors had gathered by now.
16:20Betty and the gossip stood there, mouths open.
16:22They caught sight of the armed guards.
16:24They were too terrified to utter a sound.
16:26The truth hit the crowd like a physical blow.
16:29When they realized those gifts were torture devices, the silence was deafening.
16:41Betty's face turned a deep, burning red.
16:43She remembered every time she praised my father.
16:46Every time she called a monster a saint.
16:49She stepped forward, her head bowed low.
17:01One by one, the other women followed.
17:04The same ones who used to whisper behind our backs.
17:07They were crying now, begging for forgiveness.
17:10I stood there, watching them cry.
17:12I wasn't moved.
17:13I wasn't relieved.
17:15Their apologies meant nothing to me.
17:16For ten years, their kindness was our rope.
17:19They weren't just neighbors.
17:21They were his accomplices.
17:24Season.
17:25While two guards shackled my father.
17:27The team raided the back room.
17:29One by one, they dragged the horrors into the light.
17:32The chair with iron shackles.
17:33The spiked wooden horse.
17:35The toys he used to break a woman's spirit.
17:38The neighbors backed away in pure disgust.
17:40They weren't looking at a good man anymore.
17:42They were looking at a monster.
17:44Take him to New York.
17:45Hugh said coldly.
17:46I will make him pay the ultimate price.
17:49As they dragged him away, he lunged at us.
17:51His eyes were bloodshot and filled with hate.
17:53I'll kill you both!
17:55I'll come come back as a ghost and haunt you!
17:58I didn't blink.
17:59I stared him right in his yellowing teeth.
18:01Death is too good for him, I thought.
18:03Hugh turned to my mother.
18:05He gently smoothed her matted hair.
18:07Elise.
18:08It's over.
18:10No one will ever hurt you again.
18:12Suddenly, her foggy eyes cleared.
18:14A sob ripped through her chest.
18:17Brother!
18:18She was never truly gone.
18:19She was just buried under 10 years of terror.
18:22The cage of madness finally shattered.
18:24Hugh swept my mother into his arms.
18:27Ava.
18:28Let's go.
18:29I didn't look back at the town.
18:31I just followed him out of that prison.
18:33For the first time in 10 years.
18:35I was free.
18:36I looked back one last time.
18:38The house looked small and pathetic in the sunset.
18:41This place holds all my pain and nightmares.
18:43I promised myself I'd never look at it again.
18:46But the nightmare wasn't finished.
18:48My father tried to fight his way out of the car.
18:50He was a cornered animal, dangerous and desperate.
18:53Hugh locked him in a warehouse until morning.
18:55I was lying in a soft hotel bed.
18:57But I couldn't sleep.
18:59His final words kept looping in my head.
19:02I'll come back as a ghost.
19:04Prison wasn't enough.
19:05A courtroom wasn't enough.
19:06When I closed my eyes.
19:08I saw the wooden horse and the blood.
19:10I heard my mother's muffled screams.
19:12I must put an end to his life.
19:14At 3am, I slid out of bed.
19:17I slipped past the guards like a shadow.
19:19I walked toward the warehouse west of town.
19:21My heart was a cold, steady beat.
19:23I wasn't scared anymore.
19:25For the first time, I wasn't the prey.
19:28I gripped a dagger tightly in my hand.
19:31If anyone tried to stop me, I was ready.
19:33The warehouse wasn't a fortress.
19:35The guard was slumped in his chair, snoring.
19:38I crept past him like a ghost.
19:40I climbed the back fence and dropped into the yard.
19:43Then I found the room where he was held.
19:45I pulled a thin wire from my pocket.
19:47I stole this from that pedo.
19:49Now it finally comes in handy.
19:50I slid the wire into the lock.
19:52The door creaked open.
19:54My father was curled up in the corner.
19:56His jagged snoring filled the space.
19:58I stepped inside.
19:59Maybe he felt the hatred radiating off me.
20:02His eyes snapped open.
20:04My father's eyes snapped open.
20:06He saw me standing in the moonlight.
20:08A twisted, ugly grin spread across his face.
20:11Are you here to save your daddy?
20:12Or are you here to say goodbye?
20:14My eyes were as cold as the dagger in my hand.
20:17I'm here to finish it.
20:22You wouldn't dare.
20:24I'm your father.
20:26You carry my blood.
20:27Father?
20:28Did you forget what you did to us?
20:31Ava.
20:33Ava, wait.
20:33I'll be better.
20:34Just let me go.
20:35As he begged, the memories started playing.
20:38I saw the jagged scars on my mother's thigh.
20:41I thought of the knights on those rags.
20:43Tears of rage started to roll down my face.
20:46He saw my eyes and knew I wasn't bluffing.
20:49He lunged at me.
20:50He reached for the dagger in my hand.
20:52But I was ready and stepped aside.
20:54When it was over, I looked at my hands.
20:56They were hot and trembling.
20:58But not from fear.
20:59A massive weight finally lifted off my chest.
21:02It wasn't just blood.
21:04It was the end of a decade-long nightmare.
21:06I slipped back into the hotel before dawn.
21:08I lay in that soft bed, staring at the ceiling.
21:11Killing splashed through my mind like a movie.
21:13But I feel no regret at all.
21:15He didn't just hurt us.
21:17He stole our lives.
21:18He deserved to stay in that warehouse forever.
21:21The next day, father's body was found.
21:23The news hit the town like a lightning bolt.
21:26Some said he killed himself out of guilt.
21:28Others whispered the Scott family executed him.
21:31Hugh heard the news of my father's death.
21:33He sent his men to investigate.
21:35They found nothing.
21:36No fingerprints.
21:38No clues.
21:39Just a cold body in a dark warehouse.
21:41Hugh didn't ask questions.
21:43He was in a hurry to get a lease to New York.
21:45He gave one final order.
21:47Throw him in the river.
21:48The townspeople found him floating.
21:50They stood on the banks, pointing and cursing.
21:53They said he should rot in fucking hell.
21:55He is a depraved and monstrous beast.
21:58He drove a good woman into a raving lunatic.
22:00We boarded the private jet.
22:02My mother leaned into Hugh's steady embrace.
22:04For the first time, she looked peaceful.
22:07Sometimes she'd whisper real words to us.
22:10I'm getting you the best doctors in the world.
22:12Hugh promised her.
22:14I sat by the window, watching the clouds.
22:16My mind was a storm of its own.
22:18From the hell of that small town.
22:20To the golden hope of New York.
22:22Our lives were about to change forever.
22:24But the scars on her body.
22:26And the shadows in my heart.
22:28Would never truly disappear.
22:30Finally, the wheels touched the ground.
22:32We have arrived in New York.
22:34We pulled up to the Scott Estate.
22:37The massive iron gates were like a dream.
22:39Guarded by stone statues in the moonlight.
22:41A world away from the dirt floors of Oakwood.
22:44My mom stared out the window, confused.
22:46The new place felt strange to her.
22:48Hugh gave us an entire wing of the mansion.
22:50A private garden and a marble fountain.
22:53It was beautiful.
22:54The gardens.
22:54It was silent.
22:55It was everything we never had.
22:57The doctors arrived within the hour.
22:59The best specialist's money could buy.
23:01The psychologist came out with a heavy face.
23:05Your sister lived a decade-long nightmare.
23:08The trauma is in her bones.
23:10I saw Hugh's jaw tighten.
23:12If you push too hard, she might slip away.
23:14I don't care about the cost.
23:16I don't care how long it takes.
23:17She will come back to us.
23:19And so, our new life began.
23:22Doctors came and went every day.
23:23Nurses served her the finest food on silver.
23:26Hugh never left her side.
23:27He tried to pull her back from the shadows.
