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
00:02:16No, not like this
00:02:16Five weeks past the window
00:02:16See you
00:02:21Everything else?
00:02:29No, not like this
00:02:29Miss honestly
00:02:31You got a second
00:02:31and let the Ashbirds fall because of me.
00:02:34If I ever get another chance,
00:02:36I'd make them pay for everything.
00:02:44Athena!
00:02:46Athena!
00:02:48Athena!
00:02:50Athena.
00:03:01I'm... I'm back.
00:03:03Back on the day that decided everything.
00:03:09Athena.
00:03:10Athena, come on, honey.
00:03:12It's time to pick your fiancé.
00:03:19I'm back.
00:03:21Back on the day that decided everything.
00:03:25Come on, darling.
00:03:35Whoever Athena chooses today,
00:03:37he will get everything you see here.
00:03:41Mr. Ashford, word is that Miss Ashford had a thing for Marcus Contini for years.
00:03:45Is this alliance completely personal?
00:03:48Marcus, come on.
00:03:50The guy's a nobody from the street.
00:03:52What does Miss Ashford even see in him?
00:03:54This could tank the Ashfords big time.
00:03:57My daughter's happiness comes first.
00:03:59There's no deal bigger than that.
00:04:01Baby, just choose whoever makes you happy.
00:04:06The husband's selection 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.
00:04:41Alliance is complete.
00:04:44I choose him, Alessandro Contini.
00:04:50Marcus's uncle, New York's Mafia King.
00:04:56You know you can't be serious, right?
00:04:59I'm serious.
00:05:00I've chosen.
00:05:01I choose Alessandro.
00:05:02I have made my choice.
00:05:04I will sign the agreement transfer papers with his name,
00:05:07and you'll meet him at the engagement gala.
00:05:08In three days.
00:05:10Three days.
00:05:11Three days.
00:05:16Miss Ashford, why keep the name secret?
00:05:17Are you afraid of Marcus's reactions?
00:05:19Or are you worried that it will backfire on your family?
00:05:25Alessandro?
00:05:25Sweetheart, you always used to call him Uncle Alex.
00:05:29People are going to talk.
00:05:31Athena!
00:05:37Athena, you chose me, right?
00:05:39Let's get one thing straight.
00:05:41I only love Serena.
00:05:48Athena!
00:05:59So now you're trying to buy yourself a husband?
00:06:02Athena, doesn't that seem a little desperate?
00:06:06Athena, I didn't mean to steal him.
00:06:08I just...
00:06:09Marcus and I...
00:06:12We're in love.
00:06:16If you're angry...
00:06:20Hit me, okay?
00:06:22But don't blame Marcus.
00:06:24Athena?
00:06:25When are you gonna stop bullying Serena, huh?
00:06:30Me bullying you?
00:06:32Did 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.
00:06:52Do you hear me?
00:06:52Do 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...
00:07:03The 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.
00:07:10Security, get them out of here.
00:07:11A bastard seducing her sisters, ma'am?
00:07:14Pathetic.
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.
00:07:26Since when do you call shots for the Ashfords?
00:07:29This is all my fault.
00:07:31I ruined your big day and...
00:07:34Now you don't even have a fiancé to choose.
00:07:37Save the tears. I've already chosen my fiancé.
00:07:40And I'm not changing my mind.
00:07:42Fine. I'll marry you if that's what you want.
00:07:45But 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?
00:07:58Three days at 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.
00:08:33It's just, Alessandro is a Contini.
00:08:36He might take Marcus' side.
00:08:38No, he's not like that.
00:08:40He 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.
00:09:27Marcus.
00:09:28I've been looking for you for three days.
00:09:31Why have you been avoiding me?
00:09:34Mom.
00:09:35Dad.
00:09:36I'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.
00:10:23Come live with me. Come live with me. We'll be happy.
00:10:33We'll be happy.
00:10:36Come live.
00:10:52We'll be happy.
00:10:54Oh.
00:10:55Mr. Contini asked us to pick the one that makes this princess shine.
00:10:59I'm fine.
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. Your opinion isn't needed.
00:11:26I was just trying to help you out, sis.
00:11:33Whoop!
00:11:35Whoop!
00:11:37Whoop!
00:11:43Hey, are you okay?
00:11:45Miss Ashford! Your shoulder!
00:11:47Hold on, I'm gonna get...
00:11:52Are you okay?
00:11:55What the hell did you do this time?
00:11:56Marcus, it was an accident.
00:11:58I...
00:11:59I 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, no, cut the victim crap!
00:12:18I know you're vicious!
00:12:20This 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, Mr. President, it's cold.
00:12:30Oh, I'm gonna call an ambulance.
00:12:32Oh, God, the dress!
00:12:34Mr. Cantini's gonna kill me!
00:12:35No need for an ambulance.
00:12:37I'll handle Mr. Cantini.
00:12:39You're good.
00:12:40Still 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.
00:12:49Relax.
00:12:49Nothing's happening.
00:12:52Athena?
00:12:54Apologize to Serena right now!
00:12:56I 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.
00:13:07Don't be late.
00:13:13Marcus, did you see that look on her face?
00:13:17That wasn't... anger.
00:13:20You said that marrying her was the only way to get the Ashford money.
00:13:23Are you sure that she's still picking you?
00:13:27She's picking me, obviously.
00:13:29You know, fine.
00:13:30Let's check the damn invitation.
00:13:47The Cantini and Ashford alliance.
00:13:51Who else could it be?
00:13:52You know, let's get you something stunning.
00:13:55I want you to steal the show tomorrow.
00:13:59Come on.
00:14:12Athena.
00:14:15Uncle Alex, why are you here?
00:14:18Let me see it.
00:14:19It's okay.
00:14:20I can handle it myself.
00:14:32It's okay.
00:14:33Stop moving.
00:14:35Stay still, alright?
00:14:42What?
00:14:43What are you?
00:14:48Alex.
00:14:51He's here to treat the one.
00:14:54Alex.
00:15:10Does that hurt too much?
00:15:12A little.
00:15:13It's okay.
00:15:15Try and bear it just a little longer.
00:15:18Alright, it's deeper.
00:15:20Alright, it's deeper than it looks.
00:15:22But...
00:15:23It shouldn't scar.
00:15:31It's as it is.
00:15:39It turned into the room.
00:15:41It's a little longer than you are.
00:15:41I think this is all right.
00:15:42It's pretty easy.
00:15:42It's all right.
00:15:44It's all right.
00:15:47It's all right?
00:15:53Why, why did you decide to suddenly show up?
00:15:57Um, my 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...
00:16:11Uncle, still.
00:16:14I believe that's a bit inappropriate now, isn't it?
00:16:18I just, I mean, um...
00:16:21I...
00:16:23Tomorrow morning I'll have someone deliver a new dress.
00:16:26It'll be custom, so no pressure on the wound.
00:16:34And tomorrow night, I'll see you at the gala.
00:16:39My fiancée.

00:26:53you. Athena, Athena, please. I will do whatever it takes. Please don't make me leave the Ashford
00:27:02family. This is your moment to prove your sincerity. No, she clearly chose me in the
00:27:20last life. This isn't right. Serena, what the hell is wrong with you? Marcus, I'm sorry. I don't want to
00:27:32leave the Ashford family, and I can't afford to upset the lady of the Contini family anymore.
00:27:39Athena, please. I'll do anything, okay? Anything else you need. As long as I don't leave the Ashford
00:27:44family, I will do anything. Athena, don't beg. Get up. Are you satisfied now, dragging Serena
00:27:54into this? Now, this was your plan all along, wasn't it? You slept with my uncle behind my
00:27:59back.
00:28:14I told you. Touch her again, I'll break your fucking leg. Touch her again, I'll break
00:28:22your 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? Little nephew. That's hilarious.
00:28:33And Serena's a bastard, right? I don't know what Marcus ever saw in her.
00:28:38Athena, how did you get in my uncle's bed, huh? Did you use your body? Or your family's
00:28:43filthy money. Look at him. An old man like that can't satisfy you. He's that old and still
00:28:51unmarried. He's probably impotent.
00:29:07Marcus, if you weren't my brother's son, your fingers are already missing.
00:29:12My last warning. You insult my wife again, I'll take your fucking life.
00:29:21Get these two out of here.
00:29:24No. Alessandro, Athena, you're gonna regret this.
00:29:32Now, everybody else here tonight, thank you for coming. Let me remind you, friends understand
00:29:38boundaries. So, word gets back to me about anything you think you might have heard tonight.
00:29:45Let's just say you will cease to be my friends and become my enemies.
00:29:50Mr. Contini, you're overthinking. Tonight was just you and Miss Ashford. Everything else, nothing.
00:29:58Congratulations, President Contini. Congratulations, Miss Ashford.
00:30:08Well, we're going home.
00:30:17It's finally over. After causing such a scene, is he annoyed?
00:30:26Your 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 bear with me.
00:30:44The two of us, it seems 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 fate ties us together.
00:31:01Did I upset you?
00:31:03No, I 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 everything I did was just a performance?
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 a good lady of the Contini family.
00:31:29It's trouble.
00:31:46Do you really think I need a marriage of wealth, of power?
00:31:52Everything I said tonight, I meant.
00:31:57You're mine.
00:31:57You'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?
00:32:14Of course not.
00:32:16Because it's you.
00:32:18You're the only person that matters to me.
00:32:24How do you understand?
00:32:31Silly girl.
00:32:33What do you even see in a cowardly nephew of mine?
00:32:55But I've always just called you uncle.
00:33:00And it's always felt like I was, watching you chase another man for over ten years.
00:33:07But now here we are.
00:33:10You came to me.
00:33:13I don't want you to call this marriage a transaction anymore.
00:33:19I want you, not the Ashford Coop.
00:33:30And I won't give you an opportunity to regret it.
00:33:45I'll be back in the morning to take you to the chapel.
00:33:55Alessandro, why are you treating me this well?
00:34:11Good afternoon.
00:34:14Assuming you need these?
00:34:17Wait, how 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, let's just verify everything.
00:34:29Okay.
00:34:33Congrats.
00:34:35Here's your license.
00:34:36Good for 90 days.
00:34:38Good 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.
00:35:06It just needs another day or two of preparation.
00:35:08When 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.
00:35:39Even 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.
00:35:58Now I can finally call you mine.
00:36:01I want you.
00:36:02Not the ass for good.
00:36:04And I won't give you an opportunity to regret it.
00:36:06You're away.
00:36:10I'll miss you.
00:36:11You're away.
00:36:12I'll miss you.
00:36:16You're away.
00:36:17I'll miss you.
00:36:19She 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?
00:36:28Yeah.
00:36:28The power behind the Contini family?
00:36:32Will you ever really fall for a vicious, shallow woman like her?
00:36:40Marcus.
00:36:43Athena'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.
00:36:54To 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.
00:37:46Of course.
00:37:49Marcus...
00:37:49Do you think that maybe we should...
00:37:52Release the news of our engagement?
00:37:54I mean, Athena can't pretend anymore then.
00:37:56She'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, I'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...
00:38:30Mom, I'm not moving to another planet.
00:38:34And...
00:38:35He'll take good care of me. I promise.
00:38:38Oh, Miss.
00:38:39Madam, Mr. Contini's people are here.
00:38:42With the delivery. Lots of it.
00:38:45The 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. The 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, leaving me unable to pay my hospital
00:39:32bills.
00:39:36Mr. Contini.
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.
00:39:50Stunning, 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.
00:39:59Oh, 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.
00:40:06So, 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.
00:40:18So, it doesn't really matter.
00:40:21Aw, Athena.
00:40:23Everything you ever wanted.
00:40:26The man.
00:40:27The money.
00:40:28The Contini name.
00:40:30It's all mine now.
00:40:33Sweet dreams.
00:40:58I have one more gift for you.
00:41:02Oh, my, that'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.
00:41:46No.
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.
00:42:08Now.
00:42:10Reverse 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.
00:42:33Now.
00:42:35Go 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.
00:42:51Let me discuss that.
00:42:53I'm gonna help you guys.
00:42:57Again.
00:43:00Come on.
00:43:05Call me!
00:43:08Call me!
00:43:09Call me!
00:43:16Call me!
00:43:19Oh...
00:43:20Call me!
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.
00:43:54There 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?
00:44:32Then why?
00:44:33Why are you teaching me all this?
00:44:37Because 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 hurt me again.
00:45:04I swear no one will ever hurt me again.
00:45:26I'll take you home.
00:45:29Yeah, okay.
00:45:31Okay.
00:45:56Charles,
00:45:58freeze 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.
00:46:16But Leia, she'll be the one calling me.
00:46:18I hope you're right.
00:46:21But right now,
00:46:22the 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?
00:46:41What?
00:46:50What?
00:46:55What?
00:46:56What?
00:46:59What?
00:47:02What?
00:47:04What?
00:47:05What?
00:47:05I've already picked baby names.
00:47:07A baby?
00:47:08Mother,
00:47:08I 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?
00:47:14I'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 got?
00:47:20Mother,
00:47:20stop pushing.
00:47:22Alright,
00:47:22that's really none of your business.
00:47:24Your brother died young.
00:47:26And left us with that useless Marcus.
00:47:29I'm getting old, Ally.
00:47:31All I want is to hold my grandchild.
00:47:35Don't tell me you're gonna let me die without one.
00:47:41No way.
00:47:42Alessandra'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,
00:47:57should I just ask him?
00:47:58Alright,
00:47:59yeah, I get it.
00:48:07If she heard about the baby thing,
00:48:08would it scare her off?
00:48:19Alright,
00:48:20I get it, I know.
00:48:26Everything's packed.
00:48:27The movers will be here tomorrow morning.
00:48:29I'm gonna stay with my mom to keep her company.
00:48:31Alright.
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 as going out of my way.
00:49:25It's my responsibility.
00:49:27Hmm.
00:49:29On a side note,
00:49:30I have almost fully prepared the master bedroom.
00:49:33One thing,
00:49:34one very important thing,
00:49:36that's missing.
00:49:37What's missing?
00:49:40You.
00:49:42Then,
00:49:44you'll be complete.
00:49:57Take me home.
00:49:59As you wish.
00:50:07How can Mr. Coutini be so heartless?
00:50:11Our guest room is ruined.
00:50:14You have to compensate me.
00:50:16This countryside wedding venue?
00:50:18And 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 gonna 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.
00:51:00Take some pictures.
00:51:02Throw a small party.
00:51:02You know, keep up appearances.
00:51:04And then Athena will see it.
00:51:05Living 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.
00:51:13Oh, yeah.
00:51:20Wow.
00:51:23Marcus, this place is beautiful.
00:51:25This is more beautiful than the Ashford Villa.
00:51:28What'd you expect?
00:51:29It's all my uncle's things.
00:51:32Marcus, 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.
00:51:41Mm-hmm.
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?
00:52:34This 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.
00:52:53I just 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?
00:53:02This 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.
00:53:26Serena, 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.
00:53:53Don't.
00:53:54Don't.
00:53:55Don't.
00:53:56Please.
00:53:56I was wrong, okay?
00:53:57I know.
00:53:58I know now.
00:53:59I really know that I was wrong.
00:54:01Elisano.
00:54:02I 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.
00:54:16Marcus.
00:54:20You somehow managed to ruin our new home.
00:54:24I'll give you two options.
00:54:26One, you kill your mistress right here.
00:54:37Two, cut 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 him.
00:55:03What?
00:55:04Serena, what are you doing?
00:55:06Come on, Marcus.
00:55:06It's simple, really.
00:55:21Clean up your fucking mess.
00:55:28I never imagined Marcus could be this stupid.
00:55:31I'm not gonna suffer with you.
00:55:57Your drink, sir?
00:55:58Oh.
00:55:59Well.
00:56:08Alright, boys.
00:56:11Night.
00:56:21Jesus.
00:56:30What the?
00:56:36Mr. Cantini.
00:56:40Are you feeling okay?
00:56:43What?
00:56:48Mr. Cantini.
00:56:49Mr. Cantini.
00:56:51Are you feeling okay?
00:56:52I'm feeling okay.
00:56:58I heard you drank too much, so I came to take care of you.
00:57:02What? What?
00:57:08Get your filthy hands off of me.
00:57:10Serena, do you think all men are like Marcus, ruled by their filthy dicks?
00:57:17Mr. Cantini, I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm genuinely worried about you.
00:57:23What?
00:57:25Worried about me?
00:57:27You come here in this dress with your cheap perfume, performing your vulgar little slut dance.
00:57:37You and your mother truly are built from the same silfy, rotten mold!
00:57:41How can you say that? I'm part of the Astrid 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.
00:58:17Uh, Sandra, what's wrong?
00:58:18Somebody drugged me.
00:58:19What? Where are you? I'm coming right now. Did you call a doctor? Who did this?
00:58:24Well, no, no, no doctor. Just, I don't feel well. Come, come here. Please.
00:58:36Are you okay? Do you need to go to the hospital?
00:58:38No, no hospital. Just be with me.
00:58:42Okay, well what do you need?
00:58:55I need you.
00:59:04What happened?
00:59:05Someone 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 here?
00:59:32No, no, 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.
01:00:36Then what will?
01:00:41your wife?
01:00:48Wait.
01:00:49Athena.
01:00:51Do you even know what you're saying?
01:00:54I 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.
01:01:11Alessandro.
01:01:14Take me in.
01:01:17Well, then it's your choice.
01:01:20And tonight, I'll give you everything you want.
01:01:41I'll give you everything you want.
01:01:52Marcus! Marcus! Marcus! Open it!
01:01:57Jesus! It's the middle of the night. Can I get some rest?
01:02:00Marcus, your 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? I'll expose every disgusting thing you've ever done.
01:02:26You know, without the Contini family or the Ashroot 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. Disgusting!
01:02:42I've tolerated you for long enough.
01:02:45Without me, you're nothing. And 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. And in this life, I've already lost two fingers.
01:02:59Is that not enough for you?
01:03:00Go!
01:03:03And how do you repay me, huh?
01:03:05By lying to me? Cheating on me? Dragging 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 girl.
01:03:22But you ruined it. It's all your fault.
01:03:26Oh.
01:03:27Oh, I can see it.
01:03:28Oh, my God let's...
01:03:35Oh.
01:03:37Oh, my God.
01:03:39Oh.
01:03:39Oh.
01:03:40Oh, oh.
01:03:40Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:03:54Athena, she tricked me.
01:03:57She deceived me.
01:04:19Hey, want to help me out?
01:04:24Here, let me tie the phone.
01:04:27Might be a mess.
01:04:45Here.
01:04:49My nephew was annoying.
01:04:51I wasn't going to reply.
01:04:55I know.
01:04:57Here.
01:05:00Go ahead and ice it.
01:05:03Does it like...
01:05:08Um...
01:05:10Oh, no.
01:05:13Clumsy.
01:05:14Oh, go wash it off.
01:05:15No.
01:05:26You know, mafia rules.
01:05:30You make a mess, you clean it.
01:05:34But, uh...
01:05:35I'll be cleaning this one.
01:05:47Oh, that's not true.
01:05:52Sweet.
01:06:00Yes, but not here.
01:06:03Right here.
01:06:05Right now.
01:06:08And you're going to watch as I pleasure you.
01:06:33Oh, it's done.
01:06:36You're not.
01:06:41Alessandra.
01:06:45Oh, no.
01:06:48Oh, no.
01:06:50Oh, no.
01:06:52Oh, no.
01:06:52Oh, no.
01:06:53Oh, no.
01:06:53Oh, no.
01:07:01Oh, no.
01:07:19Here, cleaning it up might make it feel better.
01:07:24Marcus, wait up!
01:07:29Athena.
01:07:36Mr. Cantini, regarding Ms. Ashford and young Master Marcus, should 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, and 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.
01:08:25Alessandro, you really took the long road, and I'm 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.
01:08:51And she'll never know.
01:08:54I've loved that woman my whole life.
01:08:56And I love her the most.
01:09:01A 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 Alessandro only goes after a brandless woman like Athena.
01:09:16Her 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, Alessandro.
01:09:40Athena's mine.
01:09:45Alessandro!
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.
01:10:01Marcus, 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,
01:10:12you 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.
01:10:28Mr. Contini has a secret lover?
01:10:32Who is she?
01:10:34Has she been fooled again?
01:10:35Oh, how humiliating for her.
01:10:38Who knows?
01:10:39But this looks like two men fighting over the same woman.
01:10:44This is a huge scandal.
01:10:46I know.
01:10:53I can guarantee Alessandro'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 all these years.
01:11:12He admitted it!
01:11:13Did you hear that, Athena?
01:11:18And that woman has been and always will be you, Athena.
01:11:35The moment you gave me this handkerchief,
01:11:42my heart has only ever beaten for you.
01:11:47So this is the answer.
01:11:50Across two lifetimes, all your kindness, all your protection was never born of guilt or pity.
01:11:58It was your deeply hidden love.
01:12:00No.
01:12:01No, this isn't right.
01:12:03I was the one who was reborn.
01:12:06Athena's supposed to be marrying me.
01:12:08Athena!
01:12:09Hey, look at me!
01:12:09I came back.
01:12:11I came back to win you back.
01:12:14Again, he 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, Marcus has completely lost it.
01:12:22The shock was too much for him.
01:12:24What a shame.
01:12:26He had a good life, and he ruined it himself.
01:12:29And now he's spouting nonsense.
01:12:33Security, 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?
01:13:03Of course.
01:13:05Nobody can separate us now.
01:13:09But we still haven't finished the most important part of the wedding, Mr. Continuum.
01:13:13Right.
01:13:14Haha.
01:13:19I know I want you.
01:13:22I need a new life around you.
01:13:24I need a new life around you.
01:13:26For the rest of my life.
01:13:32Athena, get it together.
01:13:34Wake up, this is your wedding night.
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.
01:14:25Honestly, I just 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, that wouldn't really be a concern.
01:15:41You really weren't yourself.
01:15:45What about the kitchen?
01:15:47That time was different.
01:15:53Mrs. Cantini, regarding whether or not your husband is capable in bed, I guess we've
01:16:03got an entire lifetime to find out, now don't we?
01:16:17And I must say I am truly grateful that I get to have you in this life.
01:16:24What do you mean in this life?
01:16:36Oh, merciful Father.
01:16:41My hands are so stained in blood that you've punished the one I love for my sins.
01:16:52Then I swear I am willing to do whatever it takes to save your life.
01:17:03Boss, you've already repented for Miss Ashford 99 days straight.
01:17:09Then my devotion is too weak, for the Lord has not heard my prayer.
01:17:24If only I hadn't hesitated.
01:17:31If only I had been there a moment sooner, would you still be alive?
01:17:45Perhaps this is God's punishment for me.
01:17:52Please.
01:18:03To be continued...
01:18:05To be continued...
01:18:34Where the fuck am I?
01:18:46Choosing a husband.
01:18:59I'm back 20 years ago.
01:19:07She's still alive.
01:19:13You just said in this life and the dagger you gave me, it was from my previous life.
01:19:27No matter how many lives, I will never let you go and I will always protect you.
01:19:39Shhhhhh...
