00:00Three days after I died, my fiancé Logan got the call to identify my body.
00:05He was lying in a woman's arms.
00:07Dad? Fine. Cremate it first. Then tell me.
00:11They burned my body, turned me into ashes, then called him again.
00:15He groaned, annoyed.
00:18Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll be there.
00:20Two hours later, he showed up, clothes messy, lips marked, just out of a woman's bed.
00:25The staff handed him a small box. He took it casually, a mocking smile in his eyes.
00:32Really Lydia's ashes? Or just some random stuff?
00:35Sir, we have records. This is Lydia Vale's ashes. If you don't believe that, go check it out.
00:42No need. Not necessary.
00:44I felt a small relief. My body was dead, but my spirit still here.
00:49Now that Logan got my ashes, even if he hated me, he'd probably bury me out of respect.
00:54But I didn't get to feel happy.
00:55The next moment...
00:57Oops. Slipped.
00:58He raised his foot and ground it hard into my ashes.
01:01Tell Lydia, tricks won't work on me.
01:05My father's death anniversary is coming.
01:08She better pay her respects at my father's grave.
01:11Or I'll turn her fake death into the real thing!
01:16Every word was terrifying, but I knew he could really do it.
01:20I suddenly felt lucky I was already dead. If I were still alive, in his hands, I'd be doomed to
01:25die even worse.
01:27Before the staff could say anything, Logan got a call. He had to leave.
01:31Strangely, my spirit followed him. I ended up in the passenger seat, stuck, listening to him talk.
01:37The voice was familiar.
01:38Camille, Logan's adopted sister.
01:40Back when I dated Logan, she tried more than once to get me to leave him. I refused.
01:45Then she started causing trouble. Spreading rumors at my company. Sending thugs to block me.
01:50Logan had a serious talk with her once. I don't know what he said.
01:53But after that, Camille stayed in line.
01:55Now, hearing her mention me...
01:57Don't bring her up again. She's not dead? No way. She's just hiding.
02:02Afraid I'll drag her back to face my father?
02:05But... what if she really died?
02:09Logan?
02:10What would you do?
02:11I instinctively looked at him. Back then, the old Logan would have crumbled if I just scraped my
02:16hand. He said I was the only one he'd ever love. But now, he laughed coldly.
02:21Then I'd throw a party. For all of Los Angeles. Three days, three nights.
02:27Only now did I realize. Logan hated me this much. So much that my death was something worth
02:34celebrating to him. But Logan, I really am dead. You just refused to believe it.
02:42The car stopped in front of a bridal shop. Logan rushed inside, almost impatient. And suddenly,
02:48I remembered. The last time he brought me here. The way he looked at me. Full of love. He promised
02:54me I would be the happiest bride in the world. But now, he stood there smiling.
03:02They looked perfect together.
03:06Beautiful.
03:09Logan. I've been waiting for this day.
03:12I stared, frozen in disbelief, as Camille leaned in and kissed him.
03:17No!
03:18I rushed forward, trying to stop them. But I... passed right through his body. I could only
03:24stand there, helpless. How could this happen? Why Camille? She's the one who kissed him.
03:29You killed your father! Logan!
03:32Camille touched Logan's head, smiling softly.
03:36By the way, Logan. Is she okay?
03:38Logan's face stayed cold, even a little annoyed.
03:41What could happen? Just a little trick.
03:44And... should we invite her to our wedding?
03:48Of course we invite her. She's an important guest.
03:51I froze. I realized. Logan wanted me to see his wedding with my own eyes. After all, this
03:58was the scene I'd been longing for. Back then, his father never gave his blessing. We never
04:03had the chance to have a proper wedding. But before that wish could ever come true, his
04:08father died. A heart attack. No cure. Just gone. The last call he made was to me. That night, Logan
04:19blamed me. Completely. On the day his father was buried, he forced me to kneel at the grave.
04:26Lydia, from now on, you and I won't stop. Until one of us dies.
04:34From that day, I was no longer Logan's lover. I became his enemy. He wouldn't let me leave.
04:41Every day he brought a new woman home, seeing my tear-stained eyes.
04:49He knew his father never liked me. He thought his father's heart attack was my fault. But
04:57Logan forgot how deeply we had loved. He had risked everything, even defying the Pierce family.
05:03How could I betray him? How could I hurt his father? After sending Camille away, he seemed
05:08to remember me. He generously took me off his blacklist. Lydia, dare not pick up my call and
05:17you're dead! Two weeks later, Logan finally came back home. Lydia, get out here now! He slammed
05:23through door after door, but I was nowhere to be found. He barked orders to his men, searching for
05:29me. Lydia, if you're running, run far. Because when I find you, I'll break your legs. Little did he
05:36know. The one he wanted to hurt most was right in front of him. Soon his men sent him a
05:41location.
05:42Lydia's last call was to Lucas Hart. I looked closer and realized it was Lucas's house.
05:48But Mr. Hart said he hasn't seen her. We suspect one of his employees may have kidnapped her.
05:53Kidnapped? Stop kidding. She must choose to go there herself. I'll be there soon.
06:03Where's my wife? Where are you hiding her? I'm not hiding her. She's dead. Didn't the crematorium
06:09notify you to pick up her ashes? She even got you to help with the act? Looks like Lydia's really
06:14determined to avoid me this time. But am I really that easy to fool? Lydia! Hiding won't get you
06:20anywhere. I'll count to three. If you don't come out, don't blame me for being ruthless. Three, two, one.
06:28Logan shoved Lucas to the ground. Search the house! Find her!
06:31Lucas's calm face now flashed with anger. Logan, Lydia is already dead. You even claimed her ashes
06:39yourself. Have you forgotten? She's dead. Dead for days. Shut up. And at a time like this,
06:47you still play games with her? Lucas, you really love her, don't you? But let me remind you,
06:52she loves me. She belongs to me. Maybe one day, if I get tired, I'll think about letting you have
06:57her.
06:57But for now, she has to go to my father's grave and pay her dues. She won't be with you.
07:01Logan,
07:01you're such a bastard. In an instant, they were grappling violently, rolling, punching,
07:08fueled by pure fury. But I was powerless to stop. Lucas, look at you, almost getting killed over
07:15Lithia. And her, watching calmly. A heartless woman like that, worth your love? Logan,
07:23the pitiful one is you. You forgive the man who killed your father. You hurt the one you love!
07:29You live worse than a stray cat or dog. What did you just say?
07:34We found traffic cam footage of Miss Lydia's accident and her autopsy report.
07:42Logan froze for a long moment. No, no, no, no! This can't be! I have to find her! Bring her
07:49home! No,
07:49no! She's at home! She has to be! She's doing this on purpose, just to make me come back, right?
07:54Home! Home! Home! Home!
07:58But the next second, he pushed open the wrong door. Logan froze. The desk was covered with photos of me.
08:06Every photo showed my face, drenched in blood. Some were so mangled, I was barely recognizable.
08:12I glanced once, then quickly looked away. I knew how horrific my death had been. The coroner struggled
08:18to confirm my identity back then. And now, Lucas laid the photos out openly.
08:24Logan trembled, clutching the photos in his hands. Then he shifted to the computer screen.
08:30There it was. The footage of my car crash. Two vehicles collided head-on. My car launched into
08:36the air almost instantly. The scene was horrifying. Logan's eyes reddened immediately. His hands shook as
08:43he gripped the mouse. He replayed the video again, and again. This can't be. How could Lydia possibly?
08:50All the evidence is right in front of you. And you still won't believe it? Logan, how long are you
08:56going to keep fooling yourself? How would you know? She got in a car accident? You didn't know?
09:09Her last call, it was to me. She barely had strength to speak. But she used her last bit of
09:16energy to tell me
09:17a secret. What secret? She said, the one who killed your father. It was Camille.
09:26That's impossible! It can't be Camille! She's my sister. My father loved her so much.
09:35Lucas? You're lying to me! Is this some trick? You and Lydia cooked up? Trying to help her escape me?
09:43Don't even think about it! Lucas! Tell Lydia. She may be dead. But in this life, she dies by my
09:52side.
09:53I lowered my lashes, swallowing the ache in my chest. I was already dead. Whether Logan believed
10:00the truth or not. Irrelevant. He could never hurt me again. As I walked away, a sharp gaze cut through
10:07me.
10:07I turned and met Lucas's eyes. His eyes reddened. Lips trembling. I froze for a few seconds. My eyes
10:16stung with heat. That silent, trembling. I finally knew. Lucas could see me. Lucas was my best friend.
10:26We'd grown up together. Inseparable. In college, I met Logan. From that moment, I fell hopelessly in love.
10:34Logan. Dangerous. Lucas tried to warn me countless times. He eventually went abroad to study. We slowly
10:41drifted apart. Until Logan's father had an accident. Lucas returned, determined to take me away. But I
10:49refused. I couldn't let go of Logan. Not long after, I discovered Camilla's secret. And she ended me,
10:56mercilessly. Looking back now, all that remains is regret. If it weren't for Logan, the man I would
11:03have married would have been him. The phone rang. It snapped me back. Caller ID, Camilla.
11:14Tomorrow's dad's memorial? Do you think Lydia will come? She's already dead. The line went dead. And I watched.
11:25Logan. Logan. He cried. Buried his face in the wheel. I sighed. If only this had been avoided. If only
11:34back
11:34then. Logan, your regret is too late. He set his jaw. Drove straight to the crematorium. Even at night.
11:43Even as a ghost. Fear crept in. But Logan. Untouchable. He slammed the crematorium doors.
11:50Where's Lydia's ashes? Give them to me! Now! The staff froze. They knew him. The man who had
11:57thrown my ashes. Sorry, Mr. Pierce. The ashes are already scattered. There's no bringing them back.
12:03Yes. He didn't just spill them. He stopped. Kicked. Trampled them flat. Give them to me.
12:11Don't lie to me! When I left, they were still on the floor. You must have held them back.
12:16You have three minutes. Give me Lydia's ashes! Sir, we really don't have them. The ashes we gave you,
12:25every last bit. Twist this, and we'll call the cops. Logan froze, finally facing the truth. My ashes
12:33were gone. Scattered by him, I gave a quiet glance to the poor staff caught in the chaos. My spirit
12:39followed Logan. I knew he couldn't see me, yet my heart pounded like a drum. Endless window. Until
12:46the sky began to pale. A hint of gray creeping in. Sleepless. Worn. I reached out to touch his face.
12:54But at the last second, my fingertips burned like fire. Pain shooting through me. Logan,
13:00you cursed me to hell after my death. Looks like it's finally starting to come true. This year,
13:05at his father's grave, only Logan and Camilla remained. Every time I saw her, my soul would shake.
13:11She's the one who killed his father. Yet Logan stood there, calm and gentle.
13:17Dad, Logan and I came to see you. Oh, and Lydia is dead now. You can finally rest in peace.
13:25Dad, I have good news. I'm marrying Camilla. You watched her grow up. You'll be happy for us,
13:32right? Then he paused and said, About Lydia. Dad, I was wrong. Thunder rolled across the sky,
13:40loud and deep. But that one sentence hit harder than anything. I was wrong. It echoed in my head,
13:46louder than thunder, sharper than pain. They looked like a perfect pair. A love so rare. And me? I was
13:53just the storm they had to survive. The pain in their story. The price they paid. To be alive.
14:00Now they all done. And they get their happy ending. In the days that followed, Logan threw himself
14:06into his wedding with Camilla. The dress. The rings. The invitations. Everything I had dreamed of.
14:12Logan gave to Camilla without missing a beat. He ignored everything else. Work. Company. Nothing
14:19mattered. All he could think about was their wedding. The good news? It seemed I could finally
14:25leave Logan behind. Lydia. I froze. Then slowly turned around. The night was dark. But there was
14:33Lucas standing under the streetlight. His eyes were red as he saw me. Lydia. It's really you. I almost
14:41forgot. Lucas could see me. He stood there carefully, afraid it was just a trick in his eyes. When he
14:47saw me
14:48smile and reach out, he couldn't hold back. Lydia. Why? Why can't I feel you? Lydia. I smiled, silent.
14:56And Lucas understood. Right. You're already dead. I went with him back to his house. On his desk lay
15:06a stack of files. Proof about me and father's death. I realized, ever since I died, Lucas had been
15:12investigating the crash. The mastermind behind it was Camilla. And the news that Camilla was marrying
15:18Logan was everywhere. If I had known Logan was such a bastard, I should have taken you away back then.
15:25Then, let me give them a special gift at their wedding.
15:29On Logan's wedding day, every big name in Los Angeles was there. Lucas didn't have an invitation.
15:35So, of course, he was stopped at the door. Logan stood in a perfectly fitted suit.
15:40He glanced at Lucas. Let him in. Lucas gave a faint, mocking smile. The wedding was insanely luxurious.
15:51On the giant screen, their wedding photos played on repeat. Lucas suddenly stepped in front of me, blocking my view.
16:01What's there to watch? Trash like that isn't worth your eyes, Lydia.
16:05I nodded and looked away. Soon, the ceremony began. Logan stood on the stage, staring at the entrance without blinking.
16:13That's where his bride would walk in. This is the moment I had imagined countless times. And now, it was
16:20finally happening. Just, I wasn't the one standing beside him.
16:24Camilla walked down the aisle. The officiant's voice echoed.
16:30I watched the man I once dreamed of marrying. My chest tightened. Tears burned in my eyes. I wanted to
16:37run away.
16:40Lydia, don't rush. It'll be over soon.
16:45But on stage, Logan still hadn't said the words.
16:48Logan, say it already! Everyone's watching!
16:51Logan looked at her, his eyes dark. Then he smiled. Slowly. And, word by word.
16:58I don't.
