Short filmTranscript
00:00My lawyer husband, Marcus, sent the woman he'd spoiled for two years to prison.
00:05Then, he switched his testimony at court.
00:07I'm testifying on behalf of Jade.
00:09The one who ran over my in-laws is my wife, Evelyn.
00:13Those words got me six years.
00:15I was innocent.
00:16I kept filing appeals from inside.
00:18In return, he hired men to break my leg, slash my face, and gouge out my right eye.
00:23I lived worse than a rat in the gutter.
00:25When he picked me up on release day, he wrapped an arm around my shoulder like nothing had happened.
00:30Jade is young.
00:31She can't waste her best years in a cell.
00:33You're different.
00:34Six years is nothing.
00:35It passed in the blink of a eye.
00:37As long as you stop making trouble for her, I'll treat you well again.
00:40Isn't that enough?
00:41I picked up my phone and texted a man.
00:43I'll marry you, but I have one condition.
00:45I need you to kill someone for me.
00:47His reply came instantly.
00:48Sure.
00:49Name.
00:49Marcus and Jade.
00:51Done.
00:51I'll pick you up in a week.
00:53Their heads will be my wedding gift to you.
00:54I turned off the phone and shoved Marcus off me.
00:57What's wrong?
00:57Evelyn, I know you're upset about my testimony.
01:00But Jade is still young.
01:01Prison would ruin her.
01:02You've risked your life for me so many times before.
01:04I'm not asking you to die this time.
01:06What is the big deal about six years in a cell?
01:08I clenched my fists so tight and my nails dug into my palms.
01:12He knew perfectly well who Jade had killed.
01:15She hadn't hit strangers.
01:17She killed my adoptive parents.
01:19They raised me.
01:20They're my only family.
01:22Before we married, I told him.
01:23I grew up in foster care.
01:25If my adoptive parents hadn't taken me in, I might not have survived at all.
01:30Let alone marry you.
01:32Back then, his eyes turned red with emotion.
01:34He held me tight and made a vow.
01:36I'll take care of you in their place.
01:38Your parents are my parents.
01:41I will make you happy for the rest of your life.
01:43But later, after Marcus and I had a fight, my parents came to pick me up.
01:47On the way home, Jade was drunk driving.
01:50She hit them, dragged them 200 feet down the road.
01:53They died at the scene.
01:55Marcus swore.
01:58Dear, the person responsible would face justice.
02:01But the moment he found out it was Jade, he changed his testimony.
02:04I looked at him with tear-filled eyes.
02:06Marcus, Jade killed my parents!
02:09You were my defense attorney.
02:11You didn't just change your testimony.
02:14You manipulated the media to make everyone believe I was the killer.
02:17You protected the real culprit.
02:20Six years have passed.
02:22Do you feel no guilt at all?
02:24Hearing my accusations, Jade quickly hid in Marcus's arms.
02:28Her eyes welled up, as if she'd been terribly wronged.
02:31I know you hate me for killing your parents, but I didn't do it on purpose.
02:38Why were they so unlucky to walk in front of my car when I was drunk?
02:41She pulled a small knife from her bag and pressed it to her wrist.
02:44If you still blame me, I can only pay with my life.
02:50Marcus snatched the knife away and pulled her into his arms.
02:52He turned to look at me.
02:54Jade has suffered just as much as you these past six years.
02:58To make it up to your parents, she volunteers at a charity in their name every week.
03:03Do you really have to be this aggressive?
03:05My already dead heart felt like it was being crushed all over again.
03:09I was the one who lost my parents.
03:12I was the one who spent years in prison.
03:14And he thought I was the aggressive one.
03:17Did he forget?
03:17When I was falsely imprisoned, I begged everywhere for a lawyer to appeal my case.
03:22In return, he ordered men to torture me.
03:24They used a rusted spoon to gouge out my eye and inserted a steel pipe into my leg.
03:29They used a blade to slash my face and forced my head down to drink toilet water.
03:33Their leader spat on me with a warning.
03:37Mr. Marcus orders.
03:39If you don't learn to behave, he doesn't mind turning your sense into life.
03:44I curled up alone in a dark corner.
03:46My body ached, but my heart ached far more.
03:49I stood by Marcus for four years, yet it couldn't compare to the two months Jade was by his side.
03:55She said she was scared, so he forged evidence.
03:57She said she didn't want him to see me, so he'd never show up.
04:00So many times I want to end it all.
04:02But the growing hatred in my chest told me I couldn't die yet.
04:05If I died, I couldn't avenge my parents, nor myself.
04:09Thinking of this, I couldn't bear it anymore.
04:11I walked right up to Jade and slapped her hard.
04:16Jade covered her face and screamed.
04:19Marcus grabbed my wrist viciously.
04:22Evelyn, are you crazy?
04:24Didn't she want to apologize?
04:26Her death is the only apology to my parents.
04:39It seems six years of punishment was far from enough.
04:42How dare you lay a hand on Jade?
04:45Don't forget, I bailed you out two months early.
04:47I can throw you right back in.
04:49He picked Jade up in his arms and walked away, never looking back at me even once.
04:53I lay on the floor watching them leave, suddenly noticing that my left eye was starting to blur as well.
05:07Marcus, sign the papers. Let's stop entangling with each other.
05:11He picked Jade up in his arms and walked away, never looking back at me even once.
05:15I lay on the floor watching them leave, suddenly noticing that my left eye was starting to blur as well.
05:20That night, I drafted a divorce agreement.
05:23I followed my memory to Marku's villa and pushed the door open.
05:26A birthday party was in full swing inside.
05:29Seeing me enter, everyone stopped to stare and whisper.
05:31Hey, isn't that the wife of Marcus the killer?
05:33Look what she's become. She's on crutches and she seems to be blind.
05:37Karma.
05:38Evelyn ran over her own parents and tried to frame Jade.
05:40But Marcus is an upright lawyer. He exposed her in the final trial.
05:44She must have been beaten up in there. Serves her right.
05:46Jade covered her mouth and giggled.
05:48She walked up to me with fake surprise.
05:51Evelyn, why didn't you tell us you were coming?
05:53Marcus is holding a birthday party for me.
05:56You aren't mad, are you?
05:57But I stared at her haute couture dress.
06:00While Marku bought Jade luxury brands, I was starving in prison.
06:03In the bitter cold, I washed clothes by hand just to get a thin blanket.
06:07Six years passed. Jade was as beautiful as ever.
06:10Meanwhile, my leg was broken, my eye was blind, and my parents were dead.
06:14All of this was thanks to Marku.
06:16I pulled out the divorce agreement, slapped it onto the table, and said coldly,
06:22Marcus, sign the papers. Let's stop entangling with each other.
06:25Marku stared at me in shock, then let out a laugh.
06:28Evelyn, are you still living six years ago? Open your eyes and look at yourself.
06:32A blind cripple? A murderer who killed her own parents? Who else would want you but me?
06:38I let out a short, bitter laugh.
06:40Years ago, when he was taken hostage by a defendant's family, I went in alone to get him out.
06:45I was stabbed badly enough. I paid the price. I could never have children for the price.
06:50When he asked why I'd risked my life, I told him he was my only family besides my parents.
06:55Of course, family knows exactly where it hurts the most.
06:58My scars didn't make him protect me. They became his sharpest weapon against me.
07:02You know exactly if I am the killer or not, Marcus!
07:05I shot back sharply. Murmurs spread through the crowd.
07:07Marcus' face darkened, and he rushed to correct me.
07:10The judge convicted you!
07:12You did it.
07:13Are you still trying to deny it?
07:15Jade panicked. She ran to my side, grabbing my hand with tearful eyes.
07:19I know you failed to frame me back then.
07:21But Marcus just wanted to celebrate my birthday.
07:23He pitied me for working so hard in this big city.
07:27If you are upset, I'll leave.
07:29Please don't fight with Marcus because of me.
07:32The words landed like a bomb, sending shockwaves through the crowd.
07:36Evelyn is such a bitch. How dare she bully Jade right in front of us?
07:40Six years in prison, and she's still this ungrateful.
07:43God knows how she abused Jade before.
07:45I ignored their insults.
07:46Instead, my eyes widened as I stared at Jade's wrist.
07:50It was a silver bracelet.
07:52It was my 18th birthday gift.
07:54Dad worked months for it.
07:56My initials were engraved on the back.
07:58I searched everywhere for it before going to prison.
08:01But now, it was on Jade's wrist.
08:03I grabbed Jade's arm and demanded,
08:05Where did you get this?
08:06This is mine!
08:08Give it back!
08:09She dropped to her knees, tears streaming down her face.
08:14Evelyn, please let me go!
08:16I can give you anything else.
08:18But Marcus gave me this bracelet for my birthday.
08:21It's very important to me.
08:23Marcus!
08:24Do you know that was my father's last relic?
08:27How could you give it to Jade without my permission?
08:30Marcus looked slightly awkward for a second.
08:32But taking advantage of the push,
08:34Jade screamed and threw herself backward.
08:37The back of her head slammed into the coffee table edge,
08:40blood pouring out.
08:42Marcus lost his mind instantly.
08:44He rushed to pull Jade up,
08:46then kicked my broken leg with all his strength.
08:48It's just a bracelet!
08:50Are you really losing your mind over this?
08:53And hurting Jade?
08:54He grabbed the divorce agreement and quickly signed his name.
08:57You want a divorce?
08:58I will grant it!
09:00Don't you ever come crawling back begging me!
09:02I sat paralyzed on the floor,
09:04stared at him with red eyes.
09:06Marku threw the signed papers hard into my face.
09:09How ironic.
09:10During my six years in prison,
09:12I sent him divorce papers countless times,
09:14but he never signed.
09:16The divorce I couldn't get for six years was finally granted.
09:19It just because Jade got a tiny scratch,
09:21I gritted my teeth and used my crutch to stand up.
09:24Marku threw the bracelet at my feet.
09:26Take your trash and get out!
09:28Don't ever appear in Jade and Me Again!
09:30I said nothing.
09:31I silently picked up the bracelet,
09:33held it to my chest,
09:34and turned to leave.
09:36Hey!
09:37Since you are no longer Mrs. Marcus,
09:39we have nothing to worry about now.
09:41You killed your own parents.
09:43We've wanted to beat you up for a long time.
09:45You think you can just walk away?
09:47I frowned and tried to fight back.
09:49I didn't.
09:52Shut up, bitch!
09:54Don't you dare talk back.
09:55Someone kicked me hard in the lower back,
09:58and I crashed to the floor.
10:00I should have beat you to death before you went to prison!
10:04A man pinned me down and slapped me hard.
10:06Blood ran from my ears and nose.
10:10I glanced at Marku from the corner of my eye.
10:13He was holding Jade in his arms,
10:14watching me get beaten.
10:16Mr. Marcus?
10:18You don't mind if we teach Evelyn a lesson, right?
10:21No.
10:22If you beat her to dead,
10:24I will defend you in court.
10:26He knew I'd just been released,
10:27bruised all over.
10:28I couldn't fight them.
10:30I stared at him as tears slid down.
10:32The last trace of hope I'd held for him was gone.
10:35I closed my eyes,
10:37preparing to welcome my death.
10:38But then, he spoke again.
10:40Evelyn, I will give you one last chance.
10:43Admit your mistake,
10:44and I'll make them stop.
10:45I made no mistake.
10:47As they kicked and punched me from all sides,
10:49I felt bones break and teeth come loose.
10:52But I kept my head up
10:53and looked straight at him,
10:55word by word.
10:56The only mistake I ever made in my life
10:58was falling in love with you!
11:01Marcus!
11:02Live for life!
11:03You'll get what you deserve!
11:04His patience ran out.
11:06You've got guts, Evelyn.
11:08Let's see if you can stay stubborn forever.
11:10He picked Jade up
11:11and left the house
11:12to rush her to the hospital.
11:13Before leaving,
11:14Jade picked up my bracelet
11:15and threw it out the window
11:17with a smirk.
11:18Outside,
11:18it was crushed
11:19by countless passing cars.
11:21I tried to get up,
11:22but they pulled me back down
11:23and beat me even harder.
11:25I passed out,
11:26woke up,
11:27and passed out again.
11:28When I finally woke up
11:29for the last time,
11:30the villa was empty.
11:31The floor was covered in my blood.
11:33My skull was dented.
11:34My clothes were stripped off,
11:36and every bone in my body
11:37felt broken.
11:38Even with my crutch,
11:39I couldn't stand up.
11:41Laying flat on the floor,
11:42I dragged my body inch by inch.
11:44Even if I died,
11:45I refused to die in this house.
11:47But Jade returned.
11:52Since Marcus was gone,
11:54she finally stopped pretending.
11:56How did the group beating feel, Evelyn?
12:01Do you know what my biggest regret is?
12:03I regret that I didn't make Marcus
12:05kill you in jail.
12:06Six years have passed,
12:07and you are still a threat to me.
12:10But it's fine.
12:10I will finish the job right now.
12:13What are you doing?
12:14Since you're dying,
12:15I don't mind telling you.
12:16I wasn't drunk that night
12:18six years ago.
12:19But I have to admit,
12:20your parents were tough.
12:21They didn't die right away,
12:23not even after being dragged that far.
12:25When I got out of the car,
12:27they even asked me
12:27to give you a message.
12:29I almost lost my mind
12:30and cried badly.
12:31My parents,
12:32what did they say?
12:34Jade leaned close to my ear,
12:35and my parents' final words
12:37with delight.
12:38I went pale
12:39and stood frozen in shock.
12:40That's impossible!
12:43Believe it or not,
12:44you're going to die anyway.
12:46Jade clapped her hands in disgust,
12:48then tossed her burning cigarette
12:49onto the curtains.
12:50Fire instantly erupted
12:52inside the villa.
12:53Then,
12:53she left me in the spreading fire.
12:55Have a good trip to hell, Evelyn.
12:57The fire swallowed me.
12:59The pain was unbearable.
13:00Just as I accepted my fate,
13:02a voice pulled me back.
13:03Evelyn!
13:04I forced my eyes open.
13:06Through the smoke,
13:06I saw Roman.
13:07He was tall,
13:08wearing a brown trench coat,
13:10and rushed anxiously toward me.
13:11He ignored the sparks on his clothes.
13:13Seeing my battered body,
13:15his eyes reddened.
13:16He held me tight,
13:17struggling to hold back his distress.
13:19His voice was ruthless,
13:20yet so incredibly gentle.
13:23Evelyn,
13:24I am here to save you.
13:25Hold on.
13:26In that moment,
13:27I knew.
13:28Roman had finally come.
13:29I gathered all my strength
13:31to open my eyes,
13:32met Roman's beautiful ones,
13:33and asked him,
13:35Roman,
13:35what took you so long?
13:37It hurt.
13:38Suddenly,
13:38his tears fell on my palm.
13:40It's my fault.
13:41I came too late.
13:44Let me get you out first.
13:45Your injuries are too severe.
13:46Don't move.
13:47His voice cracked with a heavy sob.
13:49Unable to endure the agony any longer,
13:51I collapsed into his chest
13:52and lost consciousness.
13:54Meanwhile,
13:54Marcus sat alone in his office,
13:56staring blankly out
13:57the floor-to-ceiling window.
13:58The cigarette had burned down
13:59to his fingers,
14:00but he felt nothing.
14:01His assistant knocked and entered.
14:03Seeing the ash-covered floor,
14:05he said,
14:05hesitated.
14:06Mr. Marcus,
14:07Miss Jade has been taken care of.
14:09It's a mild concussion,
14:10and she just needs observation
14:11for a few days.
14:12Marcus didn't turn around.
14:13He simply...
14:14The assistant hesitated again
14:16before speaking.
14:17Mr. Marcus,
14:18the villa,
14:19it caught fire.
14:21Marcus whipped around instantly.
14:22Fire?
14:23What happened?
14:24Where is Evelyn?
14:25The fire is severe.
14:26The firefighters are still
14:27putting it out.
14:28Miss Evelyn was apparently
14:30still inside.
14:31In that second,
14:32Marcus felt like he was
14:32about to lose something.
14:34He charged out of the office,
14:35pushed his car to its limit.
14:37After running countless red lights,
14:38he finally reached the villa.
14:40The once-magnificent house
14:41was now swallowed
14:42by a roaring inferno.
14:43Thick black smoke
14:44billowed into the sky,
14:45and the wail of fire engines
14:47mixed with the blast
14:48of high-pressure water hoses.
14:50Marcus threw his door open,
14:51rushed into the flames,
14:52but firefighters grabbed him
14:54and held him back.
14:55Sir, the fire is too big.
14:57You cannot go in.
14:59Let me go!
15:01My wife is inside!
15:03There is someone inside?
15:04When we got the call,
15:05they said everyone
15:06had been evacuated.
15:07It hit Marcus
15:07like a bolt of lightning.
15:09Evelyn!
15:11Evelyn!
15:13The only answer
15:14was the violent crackle
15:15of burning wood.
15:16The crowd outside whispered,
15:17and someone recognized him.
15:19Isn't that Marcus,
15:20the top lawyer?
15:21Serves her right.
15:23Retribution.
15:24Even God couldn't stand her.
15:25The world's better off
15:26without her.
15:27These four sentences
15:28are spoken by different groups.
15:30The words cut into him
15:31like poisoned blades.
15:33For the first time,
15:34he felt disgust and rage
15:35toward this self-righteous crowd.
15:37The firefighters
15:37finally controlled the blaze.
15:39They moved inside
15:40to search for survivors.
15:41Marcus stared at the entrance.
15:43Finally,
15:44the rescue team emerged
15:45carrying a stretcher
15:46covered by a white sheet.
15:47Marcus' breath
15:48stopped for a second.
15:49Step by step,
15:50he walked over
15:51with a stiff body
15:52and trembling hands.
15:53He wanted to lift the sheet.
15:55My condolences, sir.
15:56Marcus lifted.
15:57He saw a melted,
15:58bloated plastic mannequin.
15:59Marcus froze.
16:00Thank goodness.
16:02It's not her.
16:03After a closer inspection,
16:04the firefighter
16:05looked embarrassed.
16:06I apologize, sir.
16:08We found no victim inside.
16:09The house is empty.
16:11Marcus completely stunned.
16:12One month passed.
16:14Marcus used
16:14every contact he had
16:15and turned
16:16the entire city upside down,
16:18but he found nothing.
16:19No trace of me
16:20was ever found,
16:21neither alive
16:22nor dead.
16:23At the same time,
16:24his law firm
16:25began to collapse.
16:26Major long-term clients
16:27suddenly terminated
16:28their contracts
16:29without warning,
16:30moved to rival firms.
16:32His top lawyers
16:32were hit
16:33with massive scandals
16:34reproached.
16:35His old cases
16:35were dug up
16:36and his rivals
16:37dragged him down
16:37in the press.
16:38Someone targeted
16:39his firm's stock,
16:40wiping out nearly
16:41a third of its market value.
16:43He was overwhelmed
16:43and trapped
16:44on all sides.
16:45I knew exactly
16:46who did this.
16:47It was Roman.
16:48In this city,
16:49only Roman possessed
16:50that kind of power.
16:51Feeling entirely numb,
16:53Marcus drove back
16:54to his villa.
16:54As he kicked through
16:55the ash
16:56and shattered bricks,
16:57a flattened piece
16:57of silver caught his eye.
17:00He crouched down
17:01and picked it up carefully.
17:02The silver had lost
17:03all its shine,
17:04but he still saw
17:05my initials carved inside.
17:06In that moment,
17:07his heart felt pain.
17:08It was her most
17:09precious possession,
17:10one she'd worn for years
17:11and never taken off.
17:13Yet after she was sent
17:14to prison,
17:14she wrote him
17:15countless letters
17:15for begging the bracelet.
17:17It's just a piece of trash,
17:19so what if it's lost?
17:20Jade likes it.
17:22Let her play with it.
17:23Don't you owe her enough?
17:24But now,
17:25holding the twisted silver
17:26in his hand,
17:27it burned his palm.
17:30Marcus?
17:31Marcus instantly squeezed
17:33the bracelet tight
17:33in his fist,
17:34buried all his emotions,
17:36and turned around.
17:37Jade stood a few feet away,
17:39wearing a pure white dress.
17:41Why are you here?
17:42It is so dirty.
17:43She frowned,
17:44walking closer
17:45to hook his arm.
17:46Marcus flinched away
17:47instinctively.
17:48Jade's hand hung in midair.
17:51Marcus,
17:52are you too tired lately?
17:54You look terrible.
17:57I heard about the firm.
17:59Don't worry too much.
18:00That day.
18:02Are you absolutely sure
18:04everyone was out
18:05before you called
18:05the fire department?
18:06Jade's heart skipped a beat.
18:10Marcus,
18:11are you suspecting me?
18:12It was chaos.
18:14It was chaos.
18:15I was dizzy,
18:15and I only focused
18:17on calling the fire treeps.
18:18I really thought
18:19everyone had gotten out.
18:21I had no idea
18:23Evelyn hated me so much.
18:26She'd actually burn herself alive
18:27just to get back at us.
18:29Pears rolled down her cheeks.
18:30In the past,
18:31Marcus would have softened
18:32and comfort her.
18:33But right now,
18:34watching her cry,
18:35his mind flashed back
18:36to my hostile eyes
18:37the last time
18:38I looked at him.
18:39Really?
18:42I checked the phone records.
18:44The fire raged
18:45for hours
18:46before the call was made.
18:48Jade stopped crying instantly,
18:50her face turning pale.
18:51Marcus,
18:51you investigated me?
18:54I just want the truth.
18:56Marcus took a step forward,
18:57glaring at her.
18:58Tell me,
19:00how did the fire start?
19:02Where is Evelyn?
19:03Crushed by his pressure,
19:04Jade panicked.
19:05The truth is,
19:06Evelyn set the fire herself.
19:08She was crazy
19:09and jealous of us.
19:10How would I know
19:11where she went?
19:12Maybe she didn't die.
19:13Maybe she ran off
19:14with some men.
19:15She was never a good woman.
19:17Man.
19:17Realizing her mistake,
19:19Jade tried to fix it.
19:20I am just guessing.
19:22Otherwise,
19:22how could she vanish
19:23into thin air
19:24with injuries that bad?
19:25Marcus,
19:26why do you take
19:26her side over mine?
19:28She's a killer.
19:31Marcus,
19:31are you
19:33regretting it?
19:34A violent cramp
19:36seized Marcus' heart
19:37and he could barely breathe.
19:38His face went pale
19:39as he stumbled back a step,
19:41holding the bracelet tightly.
19:43Marcus,
19:43what's wrong?
19:44Don't scare me.
19:47Jade,
19:50from now on,
19:51you're not to come here
19:52without my permission.
19:54Jade completely lost her mind.
19:56Why,
19:56Marcus?
19:57Is it because of Evelyn?
19:59She is dead.
20:00Are you abandoning me
20:00for a dead woman?
20:01She is not dead.
20:03I will find her.
20:04Without sparing Jade
20:05another glance,
20:06he walked away.
20:07One month later,
20:08in a suburban mansion,
20:09Roman brought in
20:10the best medical team.
20:11I went through
20:11one rehabilitation surgery
20:13after another.
20:14I could walk with a limp,
20:15without crutches.
20:16My eyes and skin
20:17healed quickly.
20:18However,
20:18the nightmares never stopped.
20:20I always remembered
20:20that fire
20:21and my parents' final words.
20:23You don't know,
20:24do you?
20:25Your adoptive parents
20:26were actually
20:27your biological parents.
20:28They went on
20:29a top-secret mission,
20:30which is why
20:31they left you
20:31at the orphanage.
20:32You have no family
20:33left in this world.
20:34Are you happy?
20:36For so many years,
20:37I blamed my biological parents.
20:39I hated them
20:40for abandoning me
20:40at the orphanage.
20:41I wondered if they
20:42stopped loving me
20:43or they have their difficulties.
20:45If Jade had never
20:45told me the truth,
20:46I could have kept
20:47dreaming about them.
20:48But now,
20:49the illusion was shattered.
20:50Roman walked over
20:51with a glass of warm milk.
20:52He pulled me
20:53into his arms,
20:54speaking with deep concern.
20:56You haven't been
20:57sleeping well lately.
20:58Drink some milk
20:59before bed.
21:00It will help.
21:01I grabbed his wrist,
21:02stared seriously
21:03into his eyes
21:04and asked,
21:04Roman,
21:06why are you
21:06so good to me?
21:08He visibly froze
21:09for a second.
21:09Then,
21:10he reached out
21:11and rubbed my head.
21:12Because I fell in love
21:13with you at first sight
21:14in the orphanage.
21:16What?
21:17I was an orphan too.
21:18I was isolated
21:19and no one wanted
21:20to play with me.
21:21But you stepped up
21:22when I was being bullied.
21:23You saved me.
21:24From that moment on,
21:25I swore I would marry you.
21:27No matter the cost,
21:28by any means necessary.
21:29But when I finally
21:30built my empire,
21:31I found out
21:32you had already
21:32married Marcus.
21:33My timing was terrible.
21:35But thankfully,
21:36the timing is perfect now.
21:39You never told me
21:41any of this.
21:42Because I didn't
21:43want to ruin your life.
21:45Maybe it's my personality,
21:46but when I love someone,
21:47I feel more fear
21:48than courage.
21:49I'm a coward.
21:52If I hadn't been so late,
21:54you wouldn't have
21:54suffered so much.
21:56It is my fault.
22:00In that exact second,
22:01all my years of suffering
22:03finally found an exit.
22:04I didn't know
22:05how long I cried.
22:05I only remember
22:06Roman wiping my tears
22:08again and again.
22:10Marcus found this place.
22:11He wants to see you.
22:12He's been asking about you.
22:15Do you want to meet him?
22:16Roman hesitated slightly.
22:18He said he cleared your name.
22:19Jade was sentenced
22:20to life in prison
22:21for intentional homicide
22:22and hit and run.
22:23His law firm
22:24is bankrupt.
22:25He said he wants
22:26one last chance
22:26to make it up to you.
22:28To start over.
22:29Hearing this,
22:30I only felt it ridiculous.
22:32Marcus had countless
22:33chances before,
22:34yet he chose
22:34the only moment
22:35when nothing could be saved.
22:37This is a disaster.
22:39Marcus.
22:39Marcus.
22:40Marcus.
22:41Marcus.
22:42Marcus.
22:43Marcus.
22:44Marcus.
22:44She was too noisy,
22:46completely incompetent,
22:47and messed up
22:47even the simplest cases.
22:49But eventually,
22:50he started talking about her,
22:51all the time.
22:53Marcus,
22:53can we not talk about Jade today?
22:55I had gathered the courage to ask,
22:57but he had sneered at me in response.
23:00Jade was right.
23:01You only care about yourself.
23:03You never want to listen to my life.
23:05He slammed the door
23:06and left that night.
23:07We didn't talk for a month
23:08until I finally broke the ice
23:10and apologized first.
23:11But my weakness
23:12became his ultimate weapon.
23:14Thinking of this,
23:15I looked at Roman
23:16and answered with absolute certainty.
23:17There is no need to see him.
23:19From now on,
23:20there was nothing between us.
23:22He is he.
23:24I am me.
23:24I am me.
23:25I am me.
