00:00:00My marriage, my husband has been building a whole family here with my stepsister
00:00:06And I only found out today
00:00:30Marcus, Serena, how could you do this to me?
00:00:35Well, there you have it. You happy now?
00:00:38Happy? You've been betraying me for ten years behind my back?
00:00:41Oh, don't act all surprised. If you hadn't thrown yourself at me back then, Serena and I would have never
00:00:46had to hide
00:00:47Throne myself? You're the one that begged me, you begged me to marry you
00:00:53Sis, still so naive? You really thought that was all real?
00:00:57Marcus, maybe it's finally time we told her
00:00:59Like that car accident with Mom and Dad
00:01:03Yeah, we set that up
00:01:06Dad! Dad! Mom! Mom!
00:01:10And all those times you got sick?
00:01:12My little gift to you
00:01:19Why? Why would you do this to me?
00:01:24For years, your family stepped on Serena
00:01:29You treated her like nothing
00:01:32A bastard
00:01:35You think I could really just... let that go?
00:01:44Marcus, no!
00:01:45Oh, relax. You'll be with your parents soon enough
00:01:56No, not like this
00:01:58Not without me taking you both down
00:02:26In this life, I loved the wrong man
00:02:28trusted my vicious sister
00:02:31and let the Ashbirds fall
00:02:32because of me
00:02:33if I ever get another chance
00:02:36I'd make them pay
00:02:38for everything

00:03:11Athena
00:03:11Athena, come on honey
00:03:12it's time to pick your fiance
00:03:13Athena
00:03:19Athena
00:03:20Athena
00:03:21Athena
00:03:22Athena
00:03:22Athena
00:03:22Athena
00:03:22Athena
00:03:22Athena
00:03:23Athena
00:03:23Athena
00:03:23Athena
00:03:23Athena
00:03:24Athena
00:03:38Athena
00:03:38you see here. Mr. Ashford, word is that Miss Ashford had a thing for Marcus
00:03:44continue for years. Is this alliance completely personal? Marcus, come on. The
00:03:50guy's a nobody from the street. What does Miss Ashford even see in him? This could
00:03:55tank the Ashford big time. My daughter's happiness comes first. There's no deal
00:04:00bigger than that. Baby, just choose whoever makes you happy. The husband's
00:04:07election banquet begins now.
00:04:23Marcus, Serena, this time it's your turn to go to hell.
00:04:36Marcus's uncle, New York's Mafia King. Alliance is complete.
00:04:44I choose him, Alessandro Coutinho.
00:04:50Marcus's uncle, New York's Mafia King.
00:04:56You know you can't be serious, right? I'm serious. I've chosen. I choose Alessandro.
00:05:02I have made my choice. I will sign the agreement transfer papers with his name and you'll meet
00:05:07him at the engagement gala in three days.
00:05:10Three days.
00:05:15Miss Ashford, why keep the name secret? Are you afraid of Marcus's reactions or are you worried that it will
00:05:21backfire on your family?
00:05:25Alessandro? Sweetheart, you always used to call him Uncle Alex. People are going to talk.
00:05:30Athena? Athena, you chose me, right? Let's get one thing straight. I only love Serena.
00:05:48Athena?
00:05:59So now you're trying to buy yourself a husband? Athena, doesn't that seem a little desperate?
00:06:06Athena? I didn't mean to steal him. I just...
00:06:10Marcus and I...
00:06:12We're in love.
00:06:16If you're angry...
00:06:20Hit me, okay? But don't blame Marcus.
00:06:24Athena? When are you gonna stop bullying Serena, huh?
00:06:30Me bullying you? Did I?
00:06:33Athena, I...
00:06:35I didn't mean to...
00:06:38Oh!
00:06:41Hey!
00:06:42Athena, you hit her?
00:06:44That was bullying.
00:06:45Now you've seen it.
00:06:47Athena, you apologize right now or you can forget about me ever marrying you. Do you hear me?
00:06:53Do you really think I'd still marry you after you show up here with my stepsister?
00:06:57What the hell is wrong with you? I was doing you a favor.
00:07:00A favor?
00:07:01Her mother...
00:07:02The relative to my father to have her.
00:07:05And now the bastard shows up crashing my party and I have to apologize?
00:07:09You're insane. Security, get them out of here.
00:07:11A bastard seducing her sisters, ma'am? Pathetic.
00:07:16Athena, you apologize right now for your precious Ashford name holding shit in this city.
00:07:24All you are is the Contini family lapdog. Since when do you call shots for the Ashfords?
00:07:29This is all my fault. I ruined your big day and now you don't even have a fiancé to choose.
00:07:37Save the tears. I've already chosen my fiancé. And I'm not changing my mind.
00:07:42Fine. I'll marry you if that's what you want. But leave Serena out of this.
00:07:48Come on. Let's go.
00:07:51You really think you can take it all?
00:07:54My family's shares, estates, the legacy you've been eyeing? Three days.
00:07:59At the engagement gala, you'll see what's left.
00:08:07Athena, you were always about Marcus. What happened? Why the change?
00:08:12And Serena, you always looked out for her.
00:08:16Mom, I was a fool before.
00:08:21Marcus and Serena tried to kill me.
00:08:24They're gonna come for all of us.
00:08:25What?
00:08:26I can't explain everything right now, but trust me, Alessandro is the right choice.
00:08:31No, no, honey. We trust you. It's just, Alessandro is a Contini.
00:08:35He might take Marcus's side.
00:08:38No, he's not like that. He won't.
00:08:42In my past life, after my parents died in a car accident, I was left with nothing.
00:08:49I had no choice but to beg Marcus for money to bury them.
00:08:55Where's Marcus? He promised me money for my parents' ashes.
00:09:00Homeless trash.
00:09:02Good Lord.
00:09:10It's okay.
00:09:28Marcus, I've been looking for you for three days.
00:09:31Why have you been avoiding me?
00:09:34Mom, Dad, I'm so sorry I couldn't give you the peace that you deserve.
00:09:54Athena, with something this important, you should have come to me first.
00:09:58Come on.
00:10:03Here.
00:10:05I've got you.
00:10:09Every time I was about a break, Uncle Alex was always there.
00:10:15I was just too blind before.
00:10:54Oh, Mr. Contini asked us to pick the one that makes this princess shine.
00:11:05Athena?
00:11:07What are you doing here?
00:11:12Trying on dresses already?
00:11:17Aww.
00:11:18It's simple.
00:11:21You look like you're attending a wake.
00:11:23This isn't your fitting.
00:11:24Your opinion isn't needed.
00:11:26I was just trying to help you out, sis.
00:11:43Here, are you okay?
00:11:44Oh, Miss Ashford, your shoulder.
00:11:47Hold on, I'm gonna get...
00:11:52Are you okay?
00:11:53Oh, no.
00:11:55What the hell did you do this time?
00:11:56Marcus, it was an accident. I... I tripped.
00:12:03Apologize to her right now.
00:12:06Marcus, you seriously didn't see that idiot throw herself at me?
00:12:14Are you insane? Let me go.
00:12:16Oh, don't cut the victim crap. I know you're vicious.
00:12:19This is just another play to pull me back.
00:12:23Play to get you back?
00:12:24Marcus, you're not worth that trouble.
00:12:28Oh, here I was not sure if I said it's cold.
00:12:30Oh, I'm gonna call an ambulance.
00:12:32Oh my god, the dress. Mr. Cantini's gonna kill me.
00:12:35No need for an ambulance. I'll handle Mr. Cantini. You're good.
00:12:40So, spinning that bullshit?
00:12:42Really? I sent you here to get dresses?
00:12:45Athena, you're ridiculous.
00:12:47I am Mr. Cantini. Relax. Nothing's happening.
00:12:52Athena?
00:12:54Apologize to Serena right now. I will not attend your engagement gala tomorrow.
00:12:59Since you're so sure it's your name on the invitation.
00:13:05Be there tomorrow. Don't be late.
00:13:13Marcus, did you see that look on her face?
00:13:16That wasn't anger.
00:13:20You said that marrying her was the only way to get the Ashford money.
00:13:24Are you sure that she's still picking you?
00:13:27She's picking me, obviously.
00:13:29You know, fine. Let's check the damn invitation.
00:13:47See, Cantini and Ashford alliance. Who else could it be?
00:13:52You know, let's get you something stunning. I want you to steal the show tomorrow.
00:13:57Come on.
00:14:12Athena.
00:14:15Uncle Alex, why are you here?
00:14:18Let me see it.
00:14:19It's okay. I can handle it myself.
00:14:33Stop moving.
00:14:35Stay still, alright?
00:14:42What? What are you?
00:14:48Alex.
00:14:51He's here to treat the one.
00:14:54Alex.
00:14:54Alex.
00:15:10Does that hurt too much?
00:15:12A little. It's okay.
00:15:15Try and bear it just a little longer.
00:15:18Alright, it's deeper than it looks.
00:15:20But...
00:15:22It shouldn't scar.
00:15:41Well said.
00:15:53Why...
00:15:54Why did you decide to suddenly show up?
00:15:58Um...
00:15:59My staff called and said somebody hurt you.
00:16:01And ruined the dress that I chose for you.
00:16:05So I came to see for myself.
00:16:07Uncle Alex, I...
00:16:10Uncle.
00:16:12Still.
00:16:14I believe that's a bit inappropriate now, isn't it?
00:16:18I just...
00:16:19I mean, um...
00:16:21I...
00:16:23Tomorrow morning I'll have someone deliver a new dress.
00:16:26It'll be custom, so...
00:16:27No pressure on the wound.
00:16:34And tomorrow night...
00:16:37I'll see you at the gala.
00:16:38My fiancée.
00:16:41My fiancée.
00:16:47My fiancée.
00:17:22What a great party.
00:17:24How can you possibly start without the man of the hour?
00:17:32Last chance, Athena.
00:17:33Get your ass over here and beg Serena for forgiveness.
00:17:37You do it right, and maybe, just maybe, I'll let a bitch like you stay.
00:17:46Marcus, you really don't get it, do you?
00:17:49Look at you, barking like a rabid dog at my party.
00:17:53This is my engagement banquet, and my fiancee is not you.
00:18:09Athena, everyone here knows you're crazy for Marcus.
00:18:13It's okay to admit that you can't live without him.
00:18:18Not me?
00:18:19Then who, huh?
00:18:22I mean, everyone here knows you were all over me.
00:18:26The great Ashford heiress throwing herself in Marcus.
00:18:41Look everyone, this is how Athena chased me over ten years.
00:19:00You are my poison.
00:19:03My everything.
00:19:05Without you, I'm dead inside.
00:19:09Oh my god, you are so freaking pathetic.
00:19:13Ask anyone here who doesn't know you were crazy for me, and now you're acting all pure?
00:19:18Aren't you tired of this crap, Athena?
00:19:21Marcus, give her a break.
00:19:23She just loved you so much that she lost herself.
00:19:29These letters, those diaries, the Ashfords are done.
00:19:34What a mess.
00:19:36Heiress chasing a street rat, so embarrassing.
00:19:42Yes, this was me, stupid, humble, pitiful, a total joke.
00:19:59So you really think, after all that crap, I would still want the past?
00:20:04I would still want you.
00:20:06Cut the crap, Athena.
00:20:08You are a joke.
00:20:09Just admit it.
00:20:10You can't live without me.
00:20:12Say it, and maybe I'll let you go easy.
00:20:30Get your fucking hands off my wife.
00:20:35Get your fucking hands off my wife.
00:20:45Fuck!
00:20:47Fuck!
00:20:48Motherfucker!
00:21:06Uncle? What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:12Don't touch her.
00:21:19Let's get one thing straight. Athena's my wife now.
00:21:23Which makes her your aunt and sole lady of the Contini family.
00:21:28Touch her again, I'll break your fucking leg.
00:21:36What? Miss Ashford's fiance is Marcus's uncle Alessandro?
00:21:40I heard he's the real power behind the Contini family. The Mafia King.
00:21:45No way he would waste his time on Ashford's little drama. This is bullshit.
00:21:49What the hell are you doing here? This is my engagement day with Athena.
00:21:52Are you okay?
00:21:54I'm sorry, I made a complete fool out of myself in front of you.
00:21:59No, I'm the one who showed up late. You have nothing to apologize for.
00:22:04Athena, how long are you going to keep this up?
00:22:07Pulling elaborate schemes like this just to get under my skin?
00:22:10Yes, well even for you.
00:22:14Marcus, have you forgotten that I'm your uncle?
00:22:16Mr. Contini, please excuse my sister, she's just being impulsive.
00:22:20Shut the fuck up! You have no right to speak here.
00:22:24Besides, who comes to an engagement gala without even knowing whose name is on the invitation?
00:22:32Who else could Athena possibly marry?
00:22:54You! You! What did you give my uncle to help him lie for you, huh? This joke has gone on
00:22:59long enough!
00:23:00Marcus, let go. Don't embarrass yourself any further.
00:23:03Embarrass myself? You're the one who's been chasing after me for years like a desperate little bitch.
00:23:09I'll say it one more time. Let go!
00:23:14Oh, keep pretending, Athena. Does my uncle know that you waited for me all night long?
00:23:20Does he know about the notes in your phone where you keep track of all of my favorite things?
00:23:24Marcus, the only person here who's pathetic is you.
00:23:30Say whatever you want. I don't want you anymore.
00:23:33Athena, even if you stripped naked and climbed into my uncle's bed, he wouldn't give you a second glance.
00:23:47You dare hit me?
00:23:49As a lady of the Cantini family, I have every right to discipline anybody that disrespects this household.
00:23:56Athena, I know you're angry, but you can't just switch fiancés now.
00:24:01You already signed that $800 million transfer agreement with Marcus's name on it.
00:24:07You can't ruin the Ashford family reputation like this.
00:24:10That's right. Everyone was there when she chose her fiancé.
00:24:14Athena Ashford really messed up this time.
00:24:18Exactly. You begged me to take it. No take-bast!
00:24:21Well, you really went to great lengths to remember all of that.
00:24:27But who told you your name was on the agreement?
00:24:33But who told you your name was on the agreement?
00:24:36Oh, come on, Athena. You're still making up stories to protect your pathetic pride.
00:24:41Just because you say it's not me doesn't make it true.
00:24:44Fine. Open it. And show everybody here.
00:24:50Marcus, don't force her anymore.
00:24:54Athena, open that transfer agreement and show everyone how much you love me.
00:25:00Okay.
00:25:01But if your name isn't on the agreement...
00:25:04Marcus, I remember the Cantini code.
00:25:07Disrespect the family, pay in flesh.
00:25:10Cut off two fingers and apologize to me.
00:25:16And you, Serena.
00:25:18Give away your rights to your inheritance, to the Ashfords.
00:25:22And sever all ties with us.
00:25:25Do you dare to make that bet?
00:25:29Do you dare to take that bet?
00:25:32What exactly is Miss Ashford trying to pull here?
00:25:35Obviously, she teamed up with the Mafia King to wreck the engagement gala, hoping Marcus would give in for love.
00:25:42Fine.
00:25:43But don't say I didn't give you a second chance to get out of this.
00:25:46I accept!
00:25:48Athena.
00:25:50Don't push this too far that you can't come back.
00:25:54Serena.
00:25:54You agree too.
00:25:56What is there to be afraid of?
00:25:58Facts speak louder than words.
00:26:02Alright then, Athena.
00:26:04If you insist, I can't stop you.
00:26:08Hey.
00:26:10You know I have ways of making them quiet for good.
00:26:14You don't have to do this.
00:26:16Don't worry.
00:26:18Bring the agreement.
00:26:24Final confirmation.
00:26:26The wager stands.
00:26:28Open it.
00:26:41That's right.
00:26:43How could this be?
00:26:46Fingers, little nephew.
00:26:52Fingers, little nephew.
00:26:58Athena.
00:26:59Athena, please.
00:27:00I will do whatever it takes.
00:27:01Please don't make me leave the Ashford family.
00:27:04This is your moment to prove your sincerity.
00:27:18No.
00:27:19She clearly chose me in the last life.
00:27:21This isn't right.
00:27:28What?
00:27:28Serena, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:27:30I...
00:27:31Marcus, I'm sorry.
00:27:32I don't want to leave the Ashford family and I can't afford to upset the lady of the Contini family
00:27:36anymore.
00:27:39Athena, please.
00:27:41I'll do anything, okay?
00:27:42Anything else you need.
00:27:43As long as I don't leave the Ashford family, I will do anything.
00:27:47Sweetener, don't beg.
00:27:49Get up.
00:27:51Are you satisfied now, dragging Serena into this?
00:27:55No, this was your plan all along, wasn't it?
00:27:57You slept with my uncle behind my back.
00:28:14I told you.
00:28:16Touch her again, I'll break your fucking leg.
00:28:20Touch her again, I'll break your fucking leg.
00:28:23The young Master Contini really lost all his dignity tonight.
00:28:27What young Master Contini?
00:28:29Didn't you hear that?
00:28:30Little nephew.
00:28:32That's hilarious.
00:28:33And Serena's a bastard, right?
00:28:35I don't know what Marcus ever saw in her.
00:28:38Athena, how did you get in my uncle's bed, huh?
00:28:41Did you use your body?
00:28:42Or your family's filthy money?
00:28:45Look at him.
00:28:47An old man like that can't satisfy you.
00:28:49He's that old and still unmarried.
00:28:51He's probably impotent.
00:29:06Marcus, if you weren't my brother's son, your fingers are already missing.
00:29:12My last warning.
00:29:14You insult my wife again, I'll take your fucking life!
00:29:21Get these two out of here.
00:29:23No!
00:29:25Alessandro, Athena!
00:29:26You're gonna regret this!
00:29:32Now, everybody else here tonight, thank you for coming.
00:29:36Let me remind you, friends understand boundaries.
00:29:39So, word gets back to me about anything you think you might have heard tonight.
00:29:45Let's just say you'll cease to be my friends and become my enemies.
00:29:50Mr. Contini, you're overthinking.
00:29:53Tonight was just you and Miss Ashford.
00:29:55Everything else, nothing.
00:29:58Congratulations, President Contini!
00:30:01Congratulations, Miss Ashford!
00:30:06Well...
00:30:09We're going home.
00:30:17It's finally over.
00:30:19After causing such a scene.
00:30:21Is he annoyed?
00:30:25Your hand!
00:30:27It's nothing, just a scratch.
00:30:29It's bleeding, how could that be nothing?
00:30:38This might hurt just a little, so...
00:30:41Bear with me.
00:30:44The two of us, it...
00:30:46Seems like we always meet, and one's tending the other's wounds.
00:30:51I don't mind.
00:30:52You know, maybe this is how...
00:30:56Fate...
00:30:56Ties us together.
00:31:01Did I upset you?
00:31:03No.
00:31:04I was just thinking about how to thank you.
00:31:08Without you, I don't know how I would have acted tonight.
00:31:13Wait, do you think...
00:31:15Everything I did was just a...
00:31:16Performance?
00:31:18I know you're only marrying me because of an Ashford.
00:31:21The Alliance.
00:31:22Don't worry, I'll play my part and be...
00:31:25A good lady of the Contini family.
00:31:29It's...
00:31:30Trouble.
00:31:46Do you really think I need a marriage of wealth?
00:31:49Power?
00:31:52Everything I said tonight, I meant.
00:31:56You're mine.
00:32:00But why?
00:32:03Why me?
00:32:04The things Marcus said in my past?
00:32:07You really don't mind?
00:32:09I mean...
00:32:14Of course not.
00:32:16Because it's you.
00:32:18You're the only person that matters to me.
00:32:25How do you understand?
00:32:31Silly girl.
00:32:33What do you even see in a cowardly nephew of mine?
00:32:56I've always just called you uncle.
00:33:00And it's always felt like I was.
00:33:02Watching you chase another man for over ten years.
00:33:06I've always just called you uncle.
00:33:06But...
00:33:07Now here we are.
00:33:10You came to me.
00:33:13I don't want you to call this marriage...
00:33:16A transaction anymore.
00:33:19I want you.
00:33:21Not the Ashford group.
00:33:30And I won't give you an opportunity to regret it.
00:33:36Home!
00:33:41Um...
00:33:44Well...
00:33:45Go and get some rest.
00:33:46Alright, I'll be back in the morning to...
00:33:48Take you to the chapel.
00:33:56Alessandro...
00:33:56Why are you treating me this well?
00:34:11Good afternoon.
00:34:15Assuming you need these?
00:34:17Wait.
00:34:18How did you get my info?
00:34:19I picked it up from your family this morning.
00:34:22As quickly as you can, please.
00:34:24Of course.
00:34:25Let's just verify everything.
00:34:29Okay.
00:34:33Congrats.
00:34:35Here's your license.
00:34:36Good for 90 days.
00:34:37Good luck.
00:34:42Well...
00:34:44I'll hold on to this one.
00:34:46Why?
00:34:49Make sure it doesn't get lost.
00:34:52Is he really that worried I'll back out?
00:35:04The Malibu house is almost ready.
00:35:05It just needs another day or two of preparation.
00:35:09When it's ready, I'll be back to come and take you there.
00:35:11Okay.
00:35:25Here.
00:35:37Cleaning it up might make it feel better.
00:35:40Even back then, you were like sunlight.
00:35:42Just walking in and making everything brighter.
00:35:46Marcus, wait up!
00:35:48But you only ever saw Marcus.
00:35:49Always saying he was the one.
00:35:52I thought I'd have to watch from the shadows forever.
00:35:59Now I can finally call you mine.
00:36:01I want you.
00:36:02Not the ask for good.
00:36:04And I won't give you an opportunity to regret it.
00:36:20She really think climbing in bed with my uncle is going to make me jealous?
00:36:24What a joke.
00:36:26Who is my uncle anyway?
00:36:28The power behind the Contini family?
00:36:32Will you ever really fall for a vicious, shallow woman like her?
00:36:36I know.
00:36:40Marcus.
00:36:42Athena's already registered her marriage to Alessandro Contini.
00:36:47What did you say?
00:36:49That's impossible.
00:36:51She's using my uncle to make me jealous and provoke me to get under my skin.
00:36:55She wants me to lower my head.
00:36:58Marcus, I...
00:37:00I came today to apologize to you.
00:37:02I was...
00:37:03I was terrified.
00:37:05I mean, Athena, she suddenly became so frightening and I...
00:37:10I was forced into it.
00:37:12I didn't have a choice.
00:37:15You didn't hesitate for a second when you smashed that bottle over my head.
00:37:21Forget it.
00:37:23I don't blame you.
00:37:26Marcus, do you think that Athena's never coming back?
00:37:31What did you say?
00:37:35When I...
00:37:37When I find the right opportunity, I'm gonna take back everything that belongs to me.
00:37:43Everything in the Ashford family is going to be yours.
00:37:48Marcus, do you think that maybe we should...
00:37:52Release the news of our engagement?
00:37:54I mean, Athena can't pretend anymore then.
00:37:57She'll have to come begging for you back.
00:37:59Right. That's it.
00:38:01She'll come crawling back like a dog.
00:38:06When I also marry into the Contini family, Athena,
00:38:11I'll return every humiliation you gave me tenfold.
00:38:20Honey, are you sure you don't want me to stay with you for a bit?
00:38:24The Contini family is powerful.
00:38:28Alessandro is the mafia king if he ever did any...
00:38:30Mom, I'm not moving to another planet.
00:38:34And...
00:38:35He'll take good care of me. I promise.
00:38:38Miss.
00:38:39Madam, Mr. Contini's people are here.
00:38:42With the delivery. Lots of it.
00:38:44The driveway is getting full fast.
00:39:00Mr. Contini asked us to deliver these for the Ashford family.
00:39:06Here are the deeds to multiple million dollar homes.
00:39:11And here is a stunning 15-carat diamond ring.
00:39:16The tear of a starry sky.
00:39:18How does he have this ring?
00:39:21Oh my God, this is too much.
00:39:23Mr. Contini is incredibly generous.
00:39:26In my last life, Marcus spent every cent I had on this ring.
00:39:30Leaving me unable to pay my hospital bills.
00:39:36The one who has a born baby.
00:39:38Look at you, Athena!
00:39:40You can't even afford a nurse.
00:39:43Pathetic.
00:39:44My dear sister, I just...
00:39:47I had to come see you in person.
00:39:49Oh!
00:39:50Stunning, isn't it?
00:39:53Marcus got it for me.
00:39:55He said, only the rarest tear of the starry sky would suit me.
00:40:00Oh, and the money?
00:40:01It came from your medical fund, of course.
00:40:04He said, she's not going to make it anyway, so might as well make you happy.
00:40:08Isn't that so sweet?
00:40:13Careful, sis.
00:40:15Getting angry won't help.
00:40:16Well, but I guess you're almost at the end anyway, so it doesn't really matter.
00:40:19Oh, Athena.
00:40:23Everything you ever wanted, the man, the money, the Contini name, it's all mine now.
00:40:33Sweet dreams.
00:40:58I have one more gift for you.
00:41:02Oh, my.
00:41:03That's impressive.
00:41:17Why would you give me this stagger?
00:41:20I need you to be able to protect yourself.
00:41:44Do you know how to use that?
00:41:46No.
00:41:51Here.
00:41:56Up your fingers around the hill, tight.
00:42:00The blade needs to become an extension of your arm.
00:42:04Then you are in control.
00:42:09Now, reverse the grip.
00:42:13Bring it in tight to your body.
00:42:16Anyone who comes close, you will get them.
00:42:19I'm not trying to get anyone.
00:42:23If you're not willing to kill, you won't last a night in my world.
00:42:34Now, go ahead and stab me.
00:42:38Are you insane?
00:42:39I could actually hurt you.
00:42:43If you're not willing to even try, you'll never survive.
00:42:48Do it.
00:42:50Stab me in the heart.
00:42:57Again.
00:43:00Come on.
00:43:05What?
00:43:11I'm so glad for you.
00:43:17I'm so glad for you.
00:43:19Mom.
00:43:28If this were real, you'd already be dead.
00:43:36A blade isn't for anger.
00:43:40They're for keeping yourself alive.
00:43:45Now, relax your wrist.
00:43:50You're holding it like you're afraid of it.
00:43:53There you go.
00:43:56You need it to become a part of you.
00:43:58When someone is closing in on you,
00:44:01when you can see the whites of their eyes,
00:44:05that's when you strike.
00:44:14Wrong again.
00:44:16Listen.
00:44:18Use my momentum against me.
00:44:25There you go.
00:44:29Remember that feeling?
00:44:31Then why?
00:44:33Why are you teaching me all this?
00:44:38Because you're my wife now.
00:44:40And when I'm not there, I need you to be able to protect yourself.
00:44:47But when I am,
00:44:50I swear no one will ever harm you again.
00:44:55Huh?
00:44:56Let me go.
00:45:15Let me go.
00:45:20Lesson's over.
00:45:25I'll take you home.
00:45:29Yeah, okay.
00:45:58Charles, freeze every account that Marcus has that's tied to me.
00:46:02Do it now.
00:46:11Relax, Serena.
00:46:12She'll be back.
00:46:14She has to be.
00:46:15But Leia, she'll be the one calling me.
00:46:18I hope you're right.
00:46:21But right now, the planner for the engagement party needs the final deposit.
00:46:28Fine.
00:46:29How much?
00:46:30I'll send it now.
00:46:31Just $10,000.
00:46:37What?
00:46:39What?
00:47:03I've already picked baby names.
00:47:07A baby?
00:47:08Mother, I don't think I can...
00:47:10I don't think I can handle that right now.
00:47:11So when are you bringing her home?
00:47:13I've already set up the new house closer to me so the staff can help with the baby.
00:47:18How far have you two gone?
00:47:20Mother, stop pushing.
00:47:22All right, that's really none of your business.
00:47:24Your brother died young and left us with that useless Marcus.
00:47:29I'm getting old, Allie.
00:47:32All I want is to hold my grandchild.
00:47:35Don't tell me you're going to let me die without one.
00:47:41No way.
00:47:42Well, Sandra's not actually impotent.
00:47:45Look at him.
00:47:46An old man like that can't satisfy you.
00:47:48He's that old and still unmarried.
00:47:50He's probably impotent.
00:47:54Marcus couldn't have been right.
00:47:55Oh, God.
00:47:56Should I just ask him?
00:47:58All right.
00:47:59Yeah, I get it.
00:48:07If she heard about the baby thing, would it scare her off?
00:48:19All right.
00:48:19I get it.
00:48:20I know.
00:48:26Everything's packed.
00:48:27The movers will be here tomorrow morning.
00:48:28I'm going to stay with my mom to keep her company.
00:48:31All right.
00:48:32I'll be back tomorrow to take you to the Sunset Bay Villa.
00:48:54Here.
00:48:55It's windy out.
00:49:04You know, I do have everything we'll ever need prepared at Sunset Bay Villa.
00:49:09I don't really need all of this.
00:49:11I'm used to having my things.
00:49:13If you're too busy to come, please don't go out of your way.
00:49:16Charles has prepared everything very well.
00:49:19You know, I don't think picking up my wife constitutes us going out of my way.
00:49:25It's my responsibility.
00:49:28On a side note, I have almost fully prepared the master bedroom.
00:49:33One thing, one very important thing that's missing.
00:49:37What's missing?
00:49:40You.
00:49:42Then, you'll be complete.
00:49:57Take me home.
00:49:59As you wish.
00:50:07How can Mr. Contini be so heartless?
00:50:11Our engagement room is ruined.
00:50:14You have to compensate me.
00:50:16This countryside wedding venue and my gown.
00:50:19It's Italian hot couture.
00:50:22My engagement party has to be grander and even more unforgettable than hers.
00:50:27Grander?
00:50:27Yeah, and who's going to pay for that?
00:50:29All my accounts are frozen.
00:50:31The project funds are blocked.
00:50:32You know, this has to be my uncle's doing.
00:50:35Not even a single dollar left.
00:50:41You know, my uncle has a villa at Sunset Bay.
00:50:45I did the paperwork for it back then.
00:50:46I know where everything is.
00:50:47The keys, the passcodes, all of it.
00:50:51Sunset Bay?
00:50:53That lakeside antique villa?
00:50:54It's decorated like a palace.
00:50:57And it should be empty.
00:50:58So we'll go in there, borrow it for a while, take some pictures, throw a small party.
00:51:02You know, keep up appearances.
00:51:04And then Athena will see it.
00:51:05Me living that luxurious life.
00:51:07And she'll regret everything she ever did to me.
00:51:10She'll come crawling back to me.
00:51:12Let's go tomorrow.
00:51:13Yeah.
00:51:20Wow.
00:51:23Marcus, this place is beautiful.
00:51:25This is more beautiful than the Ashford Villa.
00:51:28What did you expect?
00:51:29It's all my uncle's things.
00:51:31Marcus, this place is so romantic.
00:51:36Yeah?
00:51:36Yeah.
00:51:37You like it?
00:51:37I like it.
00:51:39As long as I'm with you anywhere is fine.
00:51:59Mom, the view is so beautiful.
00:52:02Look over there.
00:52:03Oh, Alessandra's really put a lot of thought into this.
00:52:16What are you doing?
00:52:19What are you doing?
00:52:21Serena, Marcus, this is Mr. Contini and Athena's new home.
00:52:25How could you?
00:52:26Mom, Dad, I...
00:52:28It's not what you think.
00:52:30We were just looking around.
00:52:32What are you staring at?
00:52:33This is a Contini family property, and I'm part of the Contini family.
00:52:37Why can't I be here?
00:52:38Marcus, where on earth did you find the fucking audacity to waltz into my new home uninvited?
00:52:44Uncle, you froze my accounts.
00:52:46We had nowhere to go.
00:52:48I brought Serena here to find you, and then we rested on the couch.
00:52:52That was it.
00:52:52Just rested a bit.
00:52:53That's it.
00:52:54There are hundreds of hotels in this city and countless park benches, yet somehow you end up here.
00:52:59Athena, now you're trying to be all virtuous?
00:53:01This is all because of you.
00:53:03You caused all of this.
00:53:04Marcus, enough.
00:53:07You make mistakes.
00:53:09You refuse to repent, and you dare accuse Athena?
00:53:12Get out now.
00:53:14Mr. Ashford, have you forgotten that Athena's not your only daughter?
00:53:18Serena's also your daughter.
00:53:19Can't you be fair?
00:53:20Mom, Dad, we really didn't know.
00:53:23I had no idea that this was my sister's new home.
00:53:25Serena, stop acting.
00:53:28I want to know what makes you feel the need to lie and play the victim.
00:53:32Athena, how could you say that about me?
00:53:36Enough.
00:53:37I was soft-hearted before, letting you back into the Ashford family.
00:53:42But as of today, you are no longer my daughter.
00:53:48You are no longer my daughter.
00:53:56I was wrong, okay?
00:53:57I know, I know now.
00:53:59I really know that I was wrong.
00:54:01Alessandro, I am sorry I had to embarrass myself in front of you.
00:54:05We won't stay any longer.
00:54:07Heavy men put down the things, and we will leave.
00:54:19Marcus, you somehow managed to ruin our new home.
00:54:24I'll give you two options.
00:54:27One, you kill your mistress right here.
00:54:31Two,
00:54:38Cut off your fucking fingers.
00:54:41Mr. Cantini, I know, I know that I was wrong.
00:54:44Okay, please, please don't kill me.
00:54:47We gave you your two options.
00:54:49If Marcus can't do it himself, you can help.
00:54:53Okay.
00:55:03What?
00:55:04Serena, what are you doing?
00:55:06Come on, Marcus.
00:55:06No.
00:55:07It's simple, really.
00:55:22Clean up your fucking mess.
00:55:29I never imagined Marcus could be this stupid.
00:55:32I'm not gonna suffer with you.
00:55:57Your drink, sir?
00:55:59Oh.
00:56:00Well.
00:56:01Hmm.
00:56:09All right, boys.
00:56:12Night.
00:56:22Jesus.
00:56:27What the fuck?
00:56:30What the?
00:56:36Mr. Cantini.
00:56:38Mr. Cantini.
00:56:40Are you feeling okay?
00:56:43What?
00:56:48Mr. Cantini.
00:56:51Are you feeling okay?
00:56:57I heard you drank too much, so I came to take care of you.
00:57:02What?
00:57:03What?
00:57:07Get your filthy hands off of me.
00:57:10Serena, do you think all men are like Marcus, ruled by their filthy dicks?
00:57:18Mr. Cantini, I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:57:21I know.
00:57:21I'm genuinely worried about you.
00:57:23I'm genuinely worried about you.
00:57:23I'm genuinely worried about you.
00:57:25Worried about me?
00:57:27You come here in this dress with your cheap perfume, performing your vulgar little slut dance.
00:57:36You and your mother truly are built from the same silfy rotten mold.
00:57:42How can you say that? I'm part of the Ashford family too.
00:57:45No, you don't deserve that title.
00:57:47I will settle the score with you and Marcus.
00:57:53Very, very slowly.
00:57:56Now get the fuck out of here before I shoot your brains out.
00:58:10Uncle Alex, is the party over?
00:58:12Um, Athena, come help me real quick.
00:58:17Sandra, what's wrong?
00:58:18Somebody drugged me.
00:58:20What? Where are you? I'm coming right now. Did you call a doctor? Who did this?
00:58:24No, no, no doctor. Just, I don't feel well. Come, come here, please.
00:58:36Are you okay? Do you want me to go to the hospital?
00:58:39No, no hospital. Just be with me.
00:58:43Okay, what do you need?
00:58:56I need you.
00:59:04What happened?
00:59:06Someone tried to catch me off guard by slipping something in my drink.
00:59:14Athena, I want you.
00:59:18Give yourself to me, please.
00:59:21Are we doing this yet?
00:59:26Athena, I want you.
00:59:29No, no.
00:59:30Give yourself to me, please.
00:59:32Are we doing this here?
00:59:35No, no, no, not right here.
00:59:39Go upstairs and get me a cold bath.
00:59:42A cold bath?
00:59:43Yeah, yeah.
00:59:44That'll help me come to my senses.
00:59:48Okay, okay. I'm going right now.
00:59:56Oh my god.
00:59:57Alessandra really can't...
01:00:00A baby? Mother, I don't think I can...
01:00:03I don't think I can handle that right now.
01:00:06He's that old and still unmarried?
01:00:08He's probably impotent.
01:00:10So that's why he chose this method.
01:00:12Now, I have to help him.
01:00:28Is the water ready? I'll go...
01:00:30No.
01:00:31What?
01:00:32The cold water won't help you, Alessandra.
01:00:35No.
01:00:36Then what will?
01:00:41Your wife.
01:00:48Wait, Athena.
01:00:51Do you even know what you're saying?
01:00:53I mean, I can't really control myself right now and...
01:00:58I don't want you to regret this.
01:01:01I could never resent you.
01:01:10Alessandra.
01:01:14Take me in.
01:01:17Well, then it's your choice.
01:01:20And tonight, I'll give you everything you want.
01:01:53Marcus!
01:01:54Marcus!
01:01:55Marcus!
01:01:56Open it!
01:01:57Jesus!
01:01:57It's the middle of the night! Can I get some rest?
01:01:59Can I get some rest? Marcus!
01:02:01Your uncle! He's not even human!
01:02:06So all that plenty was for nothing, huh?
01:02:09You know, your mother used to know exactly how to make men hand her everything.
01:02:14Why didn't you learn?
01:02:16Marcus? How can you say that?
01:02:18You're the most useless piece of trash alive!
01:02:21Really? You're gonna insult me?
01:02:22Oh, so what if I do?
01:02:23I'll expose every disgusting thing you've ever done.
01:02:26You know, without the Contini family or the Ashford family, you're nothing.
01:02:30Still just waiting for your uncle and Athena to regret everything.
01:02:34You think I'm disgusting?
01:02:37You think I'm disgusting?
01:02:39Yeah!
01:02:39Disgusting!
01:02:41I've tolerated you for long enough.
01:02:45Without me, you're nothing!
01:02:46And you dare yell at me?
01:02:48Shut up!
01:02:49I died saving you in my last life, you bitch.
01:02:54Athena killed me.
01:02:55And in this life, I've already lost two fingers.
01:02:59Is that not enough for you?
01:03:00Get off!
01:03:03And how do you repay me?
01:03:04Huh?
01:03:05By lying to me?
01:03:07Cheating on me?
01:03:08Trading me?
01:03:09I should have known exactly what kind of woman you are.
01:03:14You are worth a fraction of what Athena is.
01:03:18And I could have had my happily ever after on her.
01:03:22But you ruined it.
01:03:23It's all your fault!
01:03:26Die bitch!
01:03:28Go to hell!
01:03:53Athena!
01:03:55She tricked me!
01:03:57She deceived me!
01:04:19Hey, wanna help me out?
01:04:24Here.
01:04:25Let me tie the phone.
01:04:27Might make a mess.
01:04:45Here.
01:04:49You-
01:04:50Your nephew is annoying.
01:04:51I wasn't gonna reply.
01:04:54I know.
01:04:58Here.
01:05:00Go ahead and, uh, nice it.
01:05:03Well, is it like...
01:05:07Um...
01:05:09Um...
01:05:10Oh, no.
01:05:13Clumsy.
01:05:14Oh, go wash it off.
01:05:16No.
01:05:26You know.
01:05:28Mafia rules.
01:05:30You make a mess, you clean it.
01:05:34But, uh...
01:05:36I'll be cleaning this one.
01:05:38I'll be cleaning this one.
01:05:42I'll be cleaning this one.
01:05:47Oh, no.
01:05:49Oh, no.
01:05:50Oh, no.
01:05:52Sweet.
01:05:56Hmm.
01:06:00Yes, but-but not here.
01:06:03Right here.
01:06:05Right now.
01:06:08And you're gonna watch as I pleasure you.
01:06:11Oh, you never know!
01:06:27Oh, no.
01:06:32Look, look.
01:06:36You don't know.
01:06:40Oh, no.
01:06:41Alessandra
01:07:19Here, cleaning it up might make it feel better
01:07:24Marcus, wait up
01:07:29Athena
01:07:36Mr. Cantini
01:07:37Regarding Ms. Ashford and young Master Marcus
01:07:41Should we intervene?
01:07:43No, just watch over her and keep her safe
01:07:47As for how she chooses to live her life, just let her be
01:08:05My rose always bloomed for someone else
01:08:08And all I could do was guard her
01:08:13Watching her chase someone else, waiting silently for her to turn back
01:08:18At last, I can stand by her side
01:08:25Alessandra, you really took the long road and impressed you were able to hold out for so long
01:08:30You've watched her for over ten years
01:08:32That kind of patience, I respect it
01:08:37She's worth it
01:08:39Honestly, how did you keep that little secret in your heart for so long?
01:08:44I don't know
01:08:47I don't know
01:08:51And she'll never know
01:08:54I've loved that woman my whole life
01:08:56And I love her the most
01:09:00And I love her the most
01:09:01A secret lover
01:09:03Athena, did you hear that?
01:09:04The man you're marrying doesn't love you at all
01:09:08I'm the one who loves you most
01:09:09I am
01:09:11That hypocrite Alessandra only goes after a brandless woman like Athena
01:09:16Your wedding's in a few days
01:09:17Once I play this video
01:09:19Let's see how he stops pretending
01:09:37You forced me to do this Alessandra
01:09:40Athena's mine
01:09:45Alessandra
01:09:48So
01:09:48Would you like to tell everyone here who your secret lover is?
01:09:53Do you hear that Athena?
01:09:54The man you're marrying loves someone else
01:09:58Athena, you should be marrying me, not him
01:10:00Marcus, you are not welcome at my wedding
01:10:03And I trust my husband
01:10:05Marcus
01:10:06Let me finish
01:10:07Let everyone here see it
01:10:11And then, just then, you can decide if you still want to marry him
01:10:15How did you keep that little secret in your heart for so long?
01:10:18I don't know
01:10:19And she'll never know
01:10:21I've loved that woman my whole life
01:10:23And I love her the most
01:10:29Mr. Contini has a secret lover?
01:10:32Who is she?
01:10:34Has she been fooled again?
01:10:36How humiliating for her
01:10:38Who knows?
01:10:39But this looks like two men fighting over the same woman
01:10:43This is a huge scandal
01:10:46I know
01:10:52I can guarantee Alessandra's character
01:10:56He would never make marriage a joke
01:11:02Marcus is right
01:11:08I have had a woman in my heart
01:11:10All these years
01:11:12He admitted it!
01:11:13Did you hear that Athena?
01:11:18And
01:11:19That woman
01:11:21Has been and always will be
01:11:24You, Athena
01:11:35The moment you gave me this handkerchief
01:11:42My heart is
01:11:43Only ever beaten for you
01:11:47So this is the answer
01:11:50Across two lifetimes
01:11:51All your kindness
01:11:53All your protection
01:11:55Was never born of guilt or pity
01:11:58It was your deeply hidden love
01:12:00No
01:12:01No, this isn't right
01:12:02I was the one who was reborn
01:12:06Athena's supposed to be marrying me
01:12:08Athena!
01:12:09Hey, look at me!
01:12:10I came back
01:12:11I came back to win you back
01:12:13Athena used to be marrying me, not him
01:12:15I can change
01:12:16It was all my faults
01:12:17Do not marry him
01:12:19Oh
01:12:20Marcus has completely lost it
01:12:22The shock was too much for him
01:12:25What a shame
01:12:26He had a good life
01:12:27And he ruined it himself
01:12:29And now he's spouting nonsense
01:12:32Security, throw him out
01:12:34I don't want to see his face again
01:12:36No, Athena
01:12:37I came back
01:12:38He had never existed in your past life
01:12:40I was reborn
01:12:41He's been marrying me
01:12:43Athena
01:12:44Athena
01:12:52Are you okay?
01:12:55I'm sorry for worrying you
01:13:01Would you still like to marry me?
01:13:04Of course
01:13:05Nobody can separate us now
01:13:08But we still haven't finished the most important part of the wedding, Mr. Contini
01:13:12Mm-hmm
01:13:13Right
01:13:14I've been there all overpass
01:13:16And now I want you
01:13:20I want you
01:13:22I need I want you
01:13:25I want you
01:13:27For the rest of my life
01:13:32Athena, get it together
01:13:34Wake up
01:13:35This is your wedding night
01:13:36I
01:13:39Ah
01:13:40You
01:13:50Wow.
01:13:59So you really kept that handkerchief after all this time?
01:14:06It's over there in the lockbox.
01:14:12Watching me chase after Marcus all these years, didn't it hurt?
01:14:21It did.
01:14:25But honestly, I just...
01:14:28I wanted to make sure that you were truly happy.
01:14:40Alessandra, thank you for waiting.
01:14:43I'm just sorry you had to wait for so long.
01:14:46Oh, there's no need to apologize, Athena.
01:14:50Every day I waited was my own choice.
01:14:53Besides, I'd say things turned out pretty well, didn't they?
01:14:58Um, Alessandra, is it possible that you might have trouble in bed?
01:15:14What?
01:15:15Trouble in bed?
01:15:16What?
01:15:21Would we even be able to have kids?
01:15:24I mean, we don't have to have kids.
01:15:26We could adopt or not have kids at all.
01:15:32Why are you laughing?
01:15:33I'm serious.
01:15:35I just thought after all we'd already done,
01:15:39that wouldn't really be a concern.
01:15:40You really weren't yourself.
01:15:45What about the kitchen?
01:15:47That time was different.
01:15:54Mrs. Cantini,
01:15:56regarding whether or not your husband is capable in bed,
01:16:02I guess we've got an entire lifetime to find out.
01:16:06Now, don't we?
01:16:17And I must say, I am truly grateful
01:16:20that I get to have you in this life.
01:16:24What do you mean in this life?
01:16:35Oh, merciful Father.
01:16:41My hands are so stained in blood
01:16:47that you've punished the one I love for my sins,
01:16:52that I swear
01:16:54I am willing to do whatever it takes
01:16:57to save your life.
01:17:02Boss,
01:17:04you've already repented for Miss Ashford
01:17:0799 days straight.
01:17:09Then my devotion is too weak,
01:17:12for the Lord has not heard my prayer.
01:17:24If only I hadn't hesitated.
01:17:31If only I had been their moment sober.
01:17:35Would you still be alive?
01:17:45Perhaps this is God's punishment for me.
01:17:51Please.
01:17:53Please.
01:18:21Please.
01:18:28Please.
01:18:34Please.
01:18:35Who am I?
01:18:45Choosing a husband...
01:18:51I...
01:18:57I'm back 20 years ago.
01:19:07She's still alive.
01:19:13You just said in...
01:19:15In this life and...
01:19:17The dagger you gave me...
01:19:20It was from my previous life.
01:19:27No matter how many lives...
01:19:31I will never...
01:19:33Let you go.
01:19:35And I will always...
01:19:37Protect you.
01:19:38Shhhh!
01:19:40Shhh!
01:19:41Shhh!
