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

00:10:54Oh, Mr. Quintini asked us to pick the one that makes this princess shine.
00:11:07Athena? What are you doing here? Trying on dresses already? It's simple. You look like you're attending a wake.
00:11:23This isn't your fitting. Your opinion isn't needed. I was just trying to help you out, sis.
00:11:43Hey, are you okay? Miss Ashford, put your shoulder. Hold on, I'm gonna get you.
00:11:52Are you okay? What the hell did you do this time?
00:11:56Marcus, it was an accident. 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, no, cut the victim crap. I know you're vicious. This is just another play to call me back.
00:12:23Play to get you back? Marcus, you're not worth that trouble.
00:12:28Oh, I'm gonna call an ambulance. Oh my god, the dress. Mr. Quintini's gonna kill me.
00:12:35No need for an ambulance. I'll handle Mr. Quintini. You're good.
00:12:40Still spinning that bullshit? Really? I sent you here to get dresses?
00:12:45Athena, you're ridiculous. I am Mr. Quintini. Relax. Nothing's happening.
00:12:51Athena? Apologize to Serena right now. I will not attend your engagement gala tomorrow.
00:12:58Since 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.
00:13:47The Quintini and Ashford alliance. Who else could it be?
00:13:52You know, let's get you something stunning.
00:13:55I want you to steal the show tomorrow.
00:14:12Athena.
00:14:15Uncle Alex, why are you here?
00:14:18Let me see it.
00:14:19It's okay. I can handle it myself.
00:14:32Stop moving.
00:14:35Stay still, alright?
00:14:42What? What are you?
00:14:47Alex.
00:14:50He'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.
00:15:24Alright.
00:15:46Well set.
00:15:53Why...
00:15:54Why...
00:15:54Why did you decide to suddenly show up?
00:15:57Um...
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...
00:16:16Inappropriate 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.
00:16:40I'll see you at the gala.
00:16:47I'm not.
00:16:49I'm not.
00:16:49We need a sample from you.
00:16:50We need a sample from you.
00:16:51We need a sample from you.
00:16:51We need a sample from you.
00:16:52Right this way.
00:16:53You better have to say,
00:16:54I think I ask for you to take anything.
00:16:56Anything you can do with our social media.
00:17:00Ladies and gentlemen,
00:17:02welcome to the Ashton Contini Engagement Banquet.
00:17:22What a great party.
00:17:24How can you possibly start without the man of the hour?
00:17:32Last chance, Athena.
00:17:34Get 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.
00:17:55And my fiancé...
00:18:00is not you.
00:18:10Athena, everyone here knows you're crazy for Marcus.
00:18:14It's okay to admit that you can't live without him.
00:18:18Not me?
00:18:19Then who?
00:18:21Huh?
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.
00:18:43This 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,
00:19:17and 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.
00:19:32The Ashford's are done.
00:19:34What a mess.
00:19:36Heiress chasing a street rat.
00:19:38So embarrassing.
00:19:41Yes.
00:19:42This was me.
00:19:44Stupid.
00:19:45Humble.
00:19:46Pitiful.
00:19:48A total joke.
00:19:59So you really think, after all that crap,
00:20:02I 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.
00:20:24Ah!
00:20:25Ah!
00:20:30Get your fucking hands off my wife.
00:20:36Get your fucking hands off my wife.
00:20:45Fuck!
00:20:48Motherfucker!
00:21:06Uncle?
00:21:07What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:11Don't touch her.
00:21:14Ah!
00:21:19Let's get one thing straight.
00:21:21Athena's my wife now.
00:21:23Which makes her your aunt.
00:21:24And sole lady of the Contini family.
00:21:28Touch her again, I'll break your fucking leg.
00:21:35What?
00:21:37Miss Ashford's fiance is Marcus's uncle Alessandro?
00:21:40I heard he's the real power behind the Contini family.
00:21:43The Mafia King.
00:21:45No way he would waste his time on Ashford's little drama.
00:21:47This is bullshit.
00:21:49What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:50This is my engagement day with Athena.
00:21:52Are you okay?
00:21:54I'm sorry.
00:21:55I made a complete fool out of myself in front of you.
00:21:59No, I'm the one who showed up late.
00:22:00You have nothing to apologize for.
00:22:04Athena?
00:22:05How long are you going to keep this up?
00:22:07Pulling elaborate schemes like this just to get under my skin?
00:22:10That's low even for you.
00:22:14Marcus, have you forgotten that I'm your uncle?
00:22:16Mr. Contini, please excuse my sister.
00:22:19She's just being impulsive.
00:22:20Shut the fuck up!
00:22:22You have no right to speak here.
00:22:24Besides, who comes to an engagement gala
00:22:27without even knowing whose name is on the invitation?
00:22:32Who else could Athena possibly marry?
00:22:54You!
00:22:55You!
00:22:55What did you give my uncle to help him lie for you, huh?
00:22:58This joke has gone on long enough!
00:23:00Marcus, let go.
00:23:02Don't embarrass yourself any further.
00:23:03Embarrass myself?
00:23:05You're the one who's been chasing after me for years
00:23:07like a desperate little bitch.
00:23:09I'll say it one more time.
00:23:10Let's go!
00:23:14Oh, keep pretending, Athena.
00:23:17Does my uncle know that you waited for me all night long?
00:23:20Does he know about the notes in your phone
00:23:22where 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.
00:23:31I don't want you anymore.
00:23:33Athena?
00:23:34Even if you stripped naked and climbed into my uncle's bed,
00:23:37he wouldn't give you a second glance.
00:23:47You dare hit me?
00:23:49As lady of the Contini family,
00:23:51I have every right to discipline anybody
00:23:53that disrespects this household.
00:23:56Athena, I know you're angry,
00:23:59but you can't just switch fiancés now.
00:24:01You already signed that $800 million transfer agreement
00:24:04with Marcus's name on it.
00:24:06You can't ruin the Ashford family reputation like this.
00:24:10That's right.
00:24:11Everyone was there when she chose her fiancé.
00:24:14Athena Ashford really messed up this time.
00:24:17Exactly.
00:24:18You begged me to take it.
00:24:20No take-backs.
00:24:21No.
00:24:23You 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.
00:24:38You're still making up stories to protect your pathetic pride.
00:24:40Just because you say it's not me doesn't make it true.
00:24:44Fine.
00:24:45Open it.
00:24:46And show everybody here.
00:24:50Marcus, don't force her anymore.
00:24:54Athena, open that transfer agreement
00:24:56and show everyone how much you love me.
00:25:00Okay, but if your name isn't on the agreement...
00:25:04Marcus, I remember the Contini 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
00:25:37to wreck the engagement gala,
00:25:39hoping Marcus would give in for love.
00:25:42Fine.
00:25:43But don't say I didn't give you a second chance
00:25:45to 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, you agree too.
00:25:56But what is there to be afraid of?
00:25:58Facts speak louder than words.
00:26:02All right 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
00:26:13quiet for good.
00:26:14We 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.
00:26:41How can this be?
00:26:47Fingers, 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.
00:27:28Serena, 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
00:27:33and I can't afford to upset the lady
00:27:35of the Contini family anymore.
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,
00:27:45I will do anything.
00:27:47Serena, don't beg.
00:27:49Get up.
00:27:51Are you satisfied now,
00:27:53dragging Serena into this?
00:27:55Now, 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.
00:29:07Marcus, if you weren't my brother's son, your fingers are already missing.
00:29:11My 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!
00:29:28No!
00:29:32Now, everybody else here tonight, thank you for coming.
00:29:35Let me remind you, friends understand boundaries.
00:29:40So, 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.
00:29:53Tonight was just you and Miss Ashford.
00:29:55Everything else, nothing.
00:29:58Congratulations, President Contini!
00:30:01Congratulations, Miss Ashford!
00:30:09You're going home.
00:30:17It's finally over.
00:30:19After causing such a scene, is 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 bear with me.
00:30:44The two of us, it seems like we always meet when one's tending the other's wounds.
00:30:51I don't mind.
00:30:53You know, maybe this is how fate ties 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 everything I did was just a performance?
00:31:18I know you're only marrying me because I'm in Ashford, the 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.
00:31:56You're mine.
00:32:00But why?
00:32:03Why me?
00:32:04The things Marcus said in my past, you really don't like?
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?
00:32:54But 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.
00:33:36Home!
00:33:44Well, go and get some rest.
00:33:46All right, I'll be back in the morning to take you to the chapel.
00:33:56Alessandro, why are you treating me this well?
00:34:11Good afternoon.
00:34:15Assuming 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.
00:34:26Good thing.
00:34:29Okay.
00:34:33Congrats.
00:34:35Here's your license.
00:34:36Good for 90 days.
00:34:38Good luck.
00:34:44Well, I'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.
00:35:51I 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 ask for good.
00:36:04And I won't give you an opportunity to regret it.
00:36:06When you're away, how I miss you.
00:36:11Yeah.
00:36:20Does she 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.
00:36:29The power behind the Contini family?
00:36:32Do you ever really fall for a vicious, shallow woman like her?
00:36:40Marcus.
00:36:43Athena's already registered her marriage to Alessandra 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 came today to apologize to you.
00:37:02I was, I was terrified.
00:37:05I mean, Athena, she suddenly became so frightening and I, I 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?
00:37:32What did you say?
00:37:35When I, when I find the right opportunity, I'm going to 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 release 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.
00:38:00She'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 and he'll take good care of me, I promise.
00:38:38Miss, madam, Mr. Contini's people are here with 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 the 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.
00:39:36Wow.
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.
00:40:00Oh, 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.
00:40:20Aw, 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.
00:41:01Oh, my.
00:41:03That's impressive.
00:41:16Why 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 of me.
00:42:09Now, reverse the grip.
00:42:13Bring it in tight to your body.
00:42:16Anyone who comes close, you will gut them.
00:42:19I'm not trying to gut 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.
00:43:04If this were real, you'd already be able to kill me.
00:43:05I'm so good for you.
00:43:11I'm so good for you.
00:43:17I'm so good for you.
00:43:19I'm so good for you.
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.
00:43:46Now, 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?
00:44:31Then 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,
00:44:42I 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.
00:45:05I swear no one will ever hurt me again.
00:45:20Lesson's over.
00:45:26I'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, she'll be back, she has to be, but Leia, she'll be the one calling me.
00:46:18I hope you're right, but 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?
00:46:53Mother?
00:46:54Ali?
00:46:56You're engaged to the Ashford girl, finally.
00:47:00Thank God, the Contini needs an heir.
00:47:03When's the big day?
00:47:04I've already picked baby names.
00:47:07A baby?
00:47:08Mother, I don't think I can, I 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 got?
00:47:20Mother, stop pushing.
00:47:22Alright, 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, Ali.
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, Alessandra's not actually impotent.
00:47:45Look at him, an old man like that can't satisfy you.
00:47:48He's that old and still unmarried.
00:47:50He's probably impotent.
00:47:53Marcus couldn't have been right.
00:47:56Oh God, should I just ask him?
00:47:58Alright, yeah, I get it.
00:48:07If she heard about the baby thing, would it scare her off?
00:48:19Alright, I get it, I know.
00:48:26Everything's packed.
00:48:27The movers will be here tomorrow morning.
00:48:28I'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.
00:49:28On a side note, I have almost fully prepared the master bedroom.
00:49:33One thing, one very important thing is missing.
00:49:37What's missing?
00:49:38What'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?
00:50:10Our engagement is ruined.
00:50:13You have to compensate me.
00:50:16This countryside wedding venue and my gown.
00:50:19It's Italian hot couture.
00:50:21My 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?
00:50:55It'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'd 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.
00:51:41Mm-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?
00:52:33This 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.
00:53:53Don't.
00:53:54Don't.
00:53:55Don't.
00:53:55Don't.
00:53:56Please.
00:53:56I was wrong.
00:53:57Okay, I know.
00:53:58I know now.
00:53:59I really know that I was wrong.
00:54:02Alessandro, I am sorry I had to embarrass myself in front of you.
00:54:05We won't stay any longer.
00:54:07Having 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.
00:54:42I know.
00:54:43I know that I was wrong.
00:54:44Okay, please.
00:54:45Please don't kill me.
00:54:47We gave you your two options.
00:54:49If Marcus can't do it himself, you can help.
00:55:03What?
00:55:04Serena, what are you doing?
00:55:06Come on, Marcus.
00:55:07No.
00:55:07It's simple, really.
00:55:22Clean up your fucking mess.
00:55:29I never imagined Marcus could be this stupid.

01:01:55Marcus! 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?
01:02:08Well, you 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 going to 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 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. Disgusting!
01:02:42I'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?
01:03:00Go!
01:03:03And how do you repay me?
01:03:05By lying to me?
01:03:07Cheating on me?
01:03:08Dragging 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!
01:03:30Go!
01:03:31Go!
01:03:31Go!
01:03:32Go!
01:03:32Go!
01:03:36Go!
01:03:37Go!
01:03:37Go!
01:03:39Go!
01:03:53Athena!
01:03:55She tricked me.
01:03:57She deceived me.
01:04:19Hey, wanna help me out?
01:04:24Here, let me tie the phone.
01:04:27Might be a mess.
01:04:45Here.
01:04:49You...
01:04:50My nephew was annoying.
01:04:51I wasn't gonna reply.
01:04:54I know.
01:04:57Here.
01:05:00Go ahead and, uh, nice it.
01:05:03Well, is it like...
01:05:08Um...
01:05:09Um...
01:05:10Oh, no.
01:05:13Clumsy.
01:05:14Oh, come wash it off.
01:05:16No.
01:05:26You know, mafia rules.
01:05:30You make a mess, you clean it.
01:05:32But, uh...
01:05:35I'll be cleaning this one.
01:05:47Oh, it's not true.
01:05:52Sweet.
01:06:00Yes, but not here.
01:06:03We're right here.
01:06:05Right now.
01:06:08And you're gonna watch as I pleasure you.
01:06:34Oh, it's done.
01:06:36We're not.
01:06:38Uh...
01:06:41Alessandro.
01:06:48Uh...
01:06:51Uh...
01:06:52Uh...
01:06:53Uh...
01:06:53Uh...
01:06:54Uh...
01:06:54Uh...
01:06:54Uh...
01:06:55Uh...
01:06:55Uh...
01:06:55Uh...
01:06:55Uh...
01:06:55Uh...
01:06:55Uh...
01:06:56Uh...
01:06:56Uh...
01:06:56Uh...
01:06:57Uh...
01:07:06Uh...
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 Miss 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.
01:08:27I'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.
01:09:18Once 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, too.
01:10:28Mr. 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?
01:10:40But 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 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?
01:11:15Athena?
01:11:19And 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.
01:11:57It 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!
01:12:08Hey, look at me!
01:12:10I came back!
01:12:11I came back to win you back!
01:12:14Athena used to be marrying me, not him.
01:12:15I can change.
01:12:16It was all my fault.
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.
01:12:27And 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 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?
01:12:56I'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.
01:13:09But we still haven't finished the most important part of the wedding, Mr. Contini.
01:13:13Right.
01:13:14I don't want to be the rest of my life.
01:13:32Athena, get it together.
01:13:34Wake up.
01:13:35This is your wedding night.
01:13:50Wow.
01:13:59So you really kept that handkerchief?
01:14:01After all this time.
01:14:06It's over there in the lockbox.
01:14:12Watching me chase after Marcus all these years.
01:14:17Didn'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.
01:14:48I mean, every day I waited was my own choice.
01:14:53Besides, I'd say things turned out pretty well, didn't they?
01:14:59Uh-huh.
01:15:03Alessandra,
01:15:06is it possible that you might...
01:15:11have trouble in bed?
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...
01:15:26We could adopt or...
01:15:28Or not have kids at all.
01:15:30I...
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.
01:15:41You really weren't yourself.
01:15:45What about the kitchen?
01:15:48That time was...
01:15:50different.
01:15:54Mrs. Contini,
01:15:57regarding whether or not your husband
01:15:59is capable in bed,
01:16:02I guess we've got
01:16:04an entire lifetime to find out.
01:16:06Now, don't we?
01:16:17And I must say,
01:16:18I am truly grateful
01:16:20that I get to have you in this life.
01:16:25What do you mean in this life?
01:16:35Oh, merciful Father.
01:16:41My hands
01:16:42are so stained in blood
01:16:47that you've punished
01:16:50that you've punished the one I love
01:16:51for my sins
01:16:52that I swear
01:16:54I am willing to do whatever it takes
01:16:57to save her life.
01:17:02Boss,
01:17:04you've already repented
01:17:05for Miss Ashford
01:17:0799 days straight.
01:17:09Then my devotion is too weak
01:17:12for the Lord
01:17:13has not heard my prayer.
01:17:24If only
01:17:26I hadn't hesitated.
01:17:31If only I had been there
01:17:32a moment sooner.
01:17:35Would you still be alive?
01:17:45Perhaps this is
01:17:46God's punishment for me.
01:17:52Please.
01:18:34Where the fuck am I?
01:18:45Choosing a husband?
01:18:53I...
01:18:59I'm back
01:19:0020 years ago.
01:19:07She's still alive.
01:19:13You just said
01:19:14in this life
01:19:16and
01:19:17the dagger you gave me
01:19:20it was from my previous life.
01:19:27No matter how many lives
01:19:30I will never
01:19:32let you go
01:19:34and I will always
01:19:37protect you.
01:19:38Shh.
01:19:40I don't know.
01:19:41I don't know.
01:19:45I don't know.
01:19:47You just said
01:19:47great.
01:19:47have
