00:31but I waited until closing time and he never returned nor did any of his friends show up when I
00:38pulled out my card to pay
00:40Mrs. Voss, your card has been frozen
00:43frozen? This card was given to me by Kian. Before we left he had even taken my card saying it
00:47was my birthday and he would cover the bill. I had been deeply touched, surriedly convinced I had married a
00:51sensible, loving husband. But now he was nowhere to be found and I'd called him dozens of times with no
00:55answer. If this card didn't work, I would be in serious trouble.
00:58Mrs. Voss, do you have another card you can use? I must warn you, we do not allow credit here.
01:04You knew that from last month, didn't you?
01:06Of course I remembered. Last month, Kian's secretary had been recklessly spending with his card and calling me a useless
01:11woman. A terrible premonition crept over me. I suspected this was Kian's revenge, getting back at me for Chloe.
01:16Just as I thought that, the sound of leather shoes approached from outside. I turned quickly. It was Kian and
01:22his secretary, Chloe.
01:23That Scarlet is from a poor family. She just got lucky and caught the eye of Mr. Hale. Now her
01:29husband is here with his new lover, watching her make a fool of herself for not paying.
01:36See? This is what happens when you climb up using only your face.
01:39Right. Youth fades. How long can that last? Once a rich man finds someone younger and prettier, her luxurious life
01:45is over.
01:46I clenched my fists slowly, rage burning inside me at the humiliation.
01:49Scarlet, I'll pay you back, exactly how you humiliated me that day.
01:53Thank you, Kian. Scarlet, you're nothing but a useless beauty. What right did you have to freeze my card? Now
01:59Kian will pay for me.
02:00I can smash as many bottles as I want and cover it, but you? You're finished. Stop staring at me
02:05like you want to kill me. If you have your own money, pay and leave.
02:07She doesn't have any money. Those dishes and opened wine cost a fortune. She's always lived off Mr. Hale's money.
02:14Without him, she's nothing.
02:17Anyone who dares to help Scarlet out of this meth is my enemy, and an enemy of the Hale family.
02:22A business partner who had stood up to help me immediately sat back down at his threat.
02:25See? Mr. Hale is serious. He cares more about his little secretary than his own wife.
02:30I thought they were still legally married, that he was just angry. But it seems real.
02:35With his warning, no one dared to help me.
02:37Kian, you're really humiliating me for this woman? Is that what this is?
02:41Yes. I am exactly here to humiliate you.
02:45I stared at him in utter disbelief.
02:49We had been married three years, known as a loving couple.
02:52He had chased me to New York, and at our wedding, he swore he would be loyal to me forever,
02:58love me with his life until the end.
03:01But now, only three years later, all those vows, all those sweet memories had been completely destroyed by his cold
03:08cruelty.
03:09Just like Outsiders said, marrying into wealthy family based on luxe meant no dignity.
03:14Once someone younger and prettier appeared, your luxurious life ended.
03:20But Kian never knew I married into the Hale family not for their money, but because I loved him.
03:26As I stared at him with bloodshot eyes, Kian took out a tissue and disdainfully wiped the hand that had
03:30just held him.
03:31Mr. Hale is really going all out.
03:32After tonight, Scarlet be nothing to him.
03:34Quiet. Just watch. Let's see how she gets out of this.
03:36Before we left, Kian had taken my card to lower my guard.
03:40Worse, my phone died.
03:42Everything had been premeditated.
03:44It's getting late, Scarlet.
03:46The restaurant is waiting.
03:48You really don't have the money to pay, do you?
03:50If you can't pay, I wouldn't mind calling the police and having you detained for a few days.
03:55You did that to me, didn't you?
04:00What? Upset?
04:01Only state officials can set fires, but common people can't light lamps?
04:05The Hale family had risen to become the richest in New York in just three years, all because of me.
04:09I used my family's power to clear a path for them, even making underground forces that targeted the Hale family
04:14back off out of respect for me.
04:15I had planned to reveal my true identity on my birthday, to tell him I was not a commoner, but
04:22the heir of the most powerful of the four great families in New York.
04:26I even planned to take him home to meet my parents.
04:31I never imagined people could turn on each other so quickly.
04:35I misjudged him.
04:36I overestimated his character.
04:41Cayenne, do you really want me to leave this restaurant in shame and humiliation?
04:47What else?
04:48Did I arrange all this just for show?
04:52Scarlet, you can either be locked up for not paying, or strip naked and bark like a dog.
04:58If I'm amused enough, I might let you go.
05:00I took a deep breath, the last shred of hope dying in my chest.
05:03Fine.
05:04You chose this.
05:05Then the collapse of the Hale family is your responsibility.
05:12Scarlet, have you been watching too many short dramas?
05:14Do you think you're some powerful heroine?
05:17You really think you can bring down the Hale family?
05:20Focus on your own problem.
05:22Manager?
05:23The manager stepped forward, his expression professional but firm.
05:27Ms. Voss, will you be paying in cash, or will someone else cover the bill?
05:32Out of professional courtesy, the manager did not embarrass me.
05:36I scanned the room and finally looked at a business partner I had worked with before.
05:41I walked toward her.
05:44Before I could speak, the business partner held up her hand defensively.
05:49Scarlet, don't come near me.
05:51I can't pay for you.
05:54You missed her stand.
05:54I just want to borrow your phone to call a friend to come over.
05:58Still putting on an act?
06:01Who in New York would dare bring money to save you now?
06:05Go ahead and call.
06:06You have 30 minutes.
06:08If time runs out and you still can't pay, you'll regret it.
06:12Chloe stopped looking at me and exchanged a heated glance with Kian.
06:17The business partner hesitantly handed me her phone as Chloe signaled her to.
06:22I immediately called my friend and told her to bring money within half an hour.
06:26Time ticked away.
06:28Chloe grew impatient and stood up.
06:3120 minutes have passed.
06:33No one is coming.
06:34You're just stalling.
06:36Manager, seize her.
06:38Wait.
06:39There are still 10 minutes left.
06:41Scarlet, if anyone comes to save you, I will bite a piece of meat and crawl out like a dog.
06:48You won't regret it?
06:49Never.
06:51The room erupted into chatter again.
06:54Everyone was enjoying the show.
06:56As the 10 minutes neared their end, an overweight man grew impatient and reached out to touch me.
07:01Don't touch me!
07:03With this body, I can tell even without touching.
07:07Nice.
07:08Mr. Hale, why don't you give her to me?
07:10Kian shrugged, his eyes cold.
07:12Why not?
07:13If she can't pay, she's all yours.
07:15If hatred could take physical form, everyone in my sight would be lying on the ground.
07:19But there was no such miracle.
07:21Hold her down!
07:22Let those pigs have their way with her!
07:24I looked at Kian, my heart turning to ice.
07:27He didn't care at all.
07:28His eyes were fixed on Chloe, a faint smile on his lips.
07:33Don't look at me like that.
07:35I won't help you.
07:36I only care about making Chloe happy.
07:38We were still legally married, yet he treated me this way, with no regard for our past.
07:44Beautiful.
07:45Come with me.
07:46I have enough money to pay for you.
07:48No, come with me.
07:50I'm a merchant in better shape.
07:51If you dare lay hands on me, you'll be begging for mercy soon enough!
07:56Still talking tough?
07:59Ripper clothes off!
08:00Time's up!
08:01No need to hold back!
08:02Before he could finish, a group of bodyguards in black suits burst through the door.
08:06Trained and disciplined, they pushed back everyone surrounding me.
08:09Right behind them was Vera Knight, the famous president of New York's largest bank.
08:14She carried a briefcase and strode in, her expression grave and unreadable.
08:18I brought the money.
08:19Am I late?
08:21Kian and Chloe jumped to their feet in shock.
08:25Mrs. Knight?
08:26Why are you here?
08:27You're such an important figure.
08:29How could someone as insignificant as Scarlet possibly ask you to deliver money?
08:34Chloe rubbed her eyes hard, thinking she was hallucinating.
08:37But after several blinks, reality hit her.
08:40It really was the renowned Miss Knight.
08:43Vera Knight didn't even glance at Kian or Chloe.
08:45Chloe, she approached me with deep respect.
08:48Mrs. Voss, Mrs. Cross sent me ahead to resolve this.
08:51She is on her way now.
08:54Then, she turned to the stunned crowd, her voice like ice.
08:59Who gave you the nerve to treat Mrs. Voss with such disrespect?
09:04The noisy restaurant fell into deathly silence.
09:08If the Hale family was the richest in New York,
09:11Vera Knight's business connections and influence were enough to crush them.
09:17When the Hale family claimed the top spot, people had wondered how,
09:21but no one guessed it was all thanks to the housewife they looked down on.
09:25Kian had once said,
09:27I will become the richest man, so I can let my wife spend as much as she wants.
09:32Now everything was different.
09:34I had made him a billionaire.
09:36I could also knock him off the peak.
09:40Faced with Vera Knight's fury, no one dared whisper.
09:44They only stared at each other in fear.
09:47Vera Knight's gaze swept across the room, her eyes sharp.
09:51Who order people to treat Mrs. Voss like this?
09:59Don't be afraid.
10:01I'm here.
10:02Sheltered by Kian,
10:04Chloe slowly calmed her panic.
10:06She lifted her chin defiantly.
10:08So what?
10:09Kian is the richest man in New York.
10:11I might fear Miss Knight,
10:13but Kian doesn't have to.
10:14With that, she regained her confidence and stood straight.
10:18I don't care what relationship you have with Miss Knight.
10:20In New York, the Hale family calls the shots.
10:24Such arrogance.
10:26If it weren't for Mrs. Voss,
10:28your little Hale family would have been devoured long ago.
10:32Everything the Hale family has today is because of Mrs. Voss.
10:36You don't know how lucky you are.
10:38I grew tired and no longer wanted to argue.
10:41Soon, I would strike against the Hale family
10:44and let Kian learn the consequences of offending me, Scarlet Voss.
10:48I stepped forward,
10:49my voice calm but carrying the weight of finality.
10:58I will pay the bill.
11:00Chloe,
11:01you haven't forgotten what you said, have you?
11:03Chloe shrunk back behind Kian.
11:05She provoked me first.
11:07Then, gathering courage again,
11:09she added,
11:10I said it!
11:11What are you going to do?
11:12In here, Kian is in charge.
11:14You think you can humiliate me with Miss Knight?
11:16Dream on!
11:18I smiled coldly.
11:20Soon,
11:21when news of the Hale family's plummeting stock reached them,
11:25I wondered if Kian would still dolt on Chloe like this.
11:28Vera Knight frowned and signaled to the bodyguards.
11:31They understood and punched Chloe to the ground in front of me in an instant.
11:36She lay there, sprawled out, looking exactly like a dog.
11:42Since you made that promise, you will do as Mrs. Voss says.
11:46Bite the meat and crawl out like a dog.
11:51A bodyguard quickly brought over a plate of raw beef, bloody and fresh.
11:55Chloe immediately recoiled and vomited the sight.
11:57Kian, save me!
11:59I will never crawl out like this, without dignity!
12:03Chloe's scream enraged Kian,
12:04who ordered his men to take her away.
12:06A fight broke out between Vera Knight's guards and Kian's men.
12:10But Kian's men were quickly beaten to the ground.
12:12They stood no chance against professionally trained bodyguards.
12:17These guards had undergone strict military-level training.
12:22Chloe turned pale again,
12:24sweat dripping down her forehead.
12:26Kian glared at us furiously.
12:29Vera Knight, I give you an inch and you take a mile.
12:32Do you think I can't make you disappear from New York overnight?
12:35Don't stand against me for Scarlet.
12:36It's pure stupidity.
12:38Vera Knight ignored his threat and bowed respectfully to me.
12:41Everything is at your command, Mrs. Voss.
12:44I smiled and stared at Kian.
12:46What?
12:47You can humiliate me, but I can't get my revenge?
12:50Also, have the lawyer bring the divorce papers.
12:52And be quick about it.
12:53As soon as I spoke, Kian roared.
12:56Scarlet, I should be the one filing for divorce.
12:58What right do you have to bring it up?
13:00You'll see how much right I have once you sign.
13:03By the way, your father might be here soon to beat some sense into his unfilial son.
13:09Shut up.
13:10Who do you think you are?
13:11Threatening me with my father?
13:13I see now.
13:14You love putting on a show.
13:16I don't know how you bribed Vera Knight, but she can help you once, not forever.
13:21Kian's face was red with fury.
13:23While we spoke, a nearby lawyer arrived with the divorce agreement.
13:27I signed my name and handed it to Kian.
13:30He snatched it, signed without hesitation, and threw it back at me.
13:35Now that we're divorced, I no longer have any reason to help the Hale family prosper.
13:41Within half an hour, I will release the word, and your stock will crash.
13:46Until the Hale family goes bankrupt.
13:48Kian and Chloe froze for a moment, then burst into shreer laughter, as if I were talking nonsense.
13:55Chloe pointed at me and laughed annoyantly.
13:59Scarlet, are you done pretending?
14:01You said that once to buy time, and now you're saying it again after someone paid for you?
14:05You think you can take down the Hale family with the Knight family backing you?
14:09Kian nodded, his expression smug.
14:12Do you know why the Knight family is only the second?
14:14Because the Hale family is above them.
14:16After divorcing me, Kian looked at me with pure disgust.
14:20Scarlet, out of old feelings, I'll give you one last chance to save face.
14:24You've paid the bill.
14:25Now kneel and Coho to Chloe to apologize.
14:27Then this will be over.
14:28I scorned Kian silently.
14:31Chloe hadn't even bitten the meat and crawled out, yet he wanted me to kneel and apologize to her.
14:35Was he insane?
14:37I checked my watch and smirked.
14:40Why don't you call your father and ask if the Hale family's stock is crashing?
14:44Kian saw I wasn't joking and began to panic.
14:46Just as he was about to call his father, Elias Hale burst through the door in his pajamas.
14:51You fool!
14:53How did I ever raise such a useless son?
14:56Elias shouted.
14:56His face pale with terror.
14:59Elias scolded Kian while bowing deeply to me.
15:01Daughter-in-law!
15:02You hid yourself so well!
15:04He straightened up, his voice trembling.
15:07You're Scarlet Voss?
15:08The heir of the most powerful of the four great families in New York?
15:12I hadn't heard the name Scarlet Voss in a long time.
15:16That was my real name, not the alias I'd used.
15:18I had hidden my identity to survey, never expecting Kian to pursue me, using every trick to make the naive
15:25me fall for his gentle act.
15:27Kian stared at his father in shock, then grabbed my arm.
15:30Scarlet Voss?
15:31Your real name is Scarlet Voss?
15:33The mysterious Voss heir of New York's top family?
15:36I coldly shook off his hand.
15:38Vera Knight immediately handed me a tissue to wipe my skin.
15:42Kian's face drained of color.
15:44If he remembered correctly, he had wiped his hand with a tissue just an hour earlier after touching me.
15:50Getting no response, he turned to his father.
15:53Dad, what's going on? Where's Chloe?
15:56Chloe waited anxiously for Elias' answer.
15:59She had heard of New York's Scarlet Voss, but never seen her in person.
16:03If I really was her, she was finished.
16:06And so was the Hall family.
16:07Elias glared at Kian, grinding his teeth.
16:10Yes, she is the legendary Scarlet Voss of New York.
16:13You idiot!
16:14You offended her for a worthless slut!
16:17With his confirmation, not only Kian, but also Chloe was stunned.
16:20The entire room exploded in panic.
16:23What? Someone pinched me! Am I dreaming or is this real?
16:27Someone pinched another, who screamed in pain.
16:30Oh my god, it's real!
16:33Scarlet is really New York's Scarlet Voss!
16:36We mocked her!
16:38We're done for!
16:39What do we do?
16:41We even helped Kian and that bitch try to tear her clothes off!
16:45Their voices laced with panic.
16:47Panicked voices filled my ears.
16:49Everyone prayed I would overlook their offenses.
16:52I had said it before.
16:54Anyone who watched my humiliation would become the joke.
16:57Elias reacted first and kicked Chloe to my feet.
16:59You troublemaker!
17:01What gives you the right to go against Mrs. Voss?
17:03You let men try to tear her clothes off?
17:05You made her bite meat and crawl?
17:07How many lives do you have?
17:11Chloe was dazed, laying at my feet like a dog.
17:14This time, no one dared to back her up.
17:16She looked at Kian, begging for help.
17:22But Kian didn't even glance at her.
17:24He stared only at me.
17:26Elias shouted him.
17:27The Hale family's success today is all because of Mrs. Voss.
17:30I didn't know at first, but when I went to New York,
17:33I saw her sitting at the head of a table of billionaires,
17:36leading important negotiations.
17:38Right.
17:39That's when I realized my daughter-in-law was someone extraordinary.
17:43She planned to reveal her identity tonight,
17:46take you to New York to meet her family,
17:48and make you one of them.
17:50But you ruined everything for a useless nobody.
17:53Kian's eyes widened,
17:54and he began to tremble uncontrollably.
17:56He looked at me, mouth open,
17:58but no words came out.
17:59Reality left him no time to stay silent.
18:02Elias checked his phone and begged me urgently.
18:04Dear daughter-in-law,
18:06please stop them!
18:08The Hale group's stock is crashing badly.
18:11If it keeps falling, the Hale family is finished!
18:14I straightened my clothes slowly,
18:16my eyes empty of emotion.
18:18I told you.
18:19I lifted the Hale family to the top,
18:21and I can drag them back into the dirt.
18:23Elias slapped Kian across the face without hesitation.
18:26What are you waiting for?
18:28Kneel and apologize to Mrs. Voss.
18:30Do you want to destroy the Hale family?
18:33Kian finally snapped back to his senses.
18:35He knew I was the only one who could fix this.
18:38He kicked Chloe in the face.
18:41This is all your fault!
18:43You turned us against each other!
18:45Men!
18:45Hold her down and make her crawl out!
18:48Kian's men rushed over and pinned Chloe tightly.
18:50She cried and begged,
18:52terror in her tearful eyes.
18:53Kian, make them let go!
18:55I didn't want this!
18:56You were the one who said you'd get revenge for me!
18:58Shut up!
18:59You seduced me into doing this!
19:01Don't deny it!
19:02Chloe let out a hysterical laugh.
19:05Kian Hale, you're an expert at running from responsibility.
19:07You think punishing me will make Scarrett Voss forgive you or the Hale family?
19:11Dream on!
19:11It's impossible!
19:12Chloe was right.
19:13Even if Kian punished her,
19:14I would never let the Hale family off the hook.
19:16But father and son didn't understand.
19:17She won't.
19:18My wife is just angry.
19:20She loves me.
19:20Why else would she hide her identity and stay with the Hale family for three years?
19:24Kian still spoke arrogantly,
19:26trying to convince himself more than anyone else.
19:28That proves how much she cares.
19:30Once she calms down and I apologize,
19:32we'll get back together.
19:33He turned to his men,
19:34his voice cold.
19:35What are you waiting for?
19:36If she won't crawl,
19:37beat her.
19:38Beat her until she does.
19:41Chloe screamed in agony.
19:43Everyone cowered,
19:44terrified of offending the powerful.
19:46I'll do it!
19:47I'll bite the meat and crawl!
19:48Make them stop!
19:49My legs will break if they keep hitting me!
19:51To save her legs,
19:52Chloe finally kept her promise,
19:54reluctantly biting into a piece of raw meat
19:56and crawling out while barking like a dog-a-daw.
20:00With Chloe dealt with,
20:01I prepared to leave.
20:02Kian saw me leaving and quickly grabbed my arm.
20:05Wife,
20:06where are you going?
20:06I've punished Chloe.
20:08I'll never humiliate you for another woman again.
20:11Come home with me, please.
20:12I looked at him with a faint,
20:14mocking smile.
20:15Mr. Hale,
20:16are you insane?
20:17Please show some respect.
20:19We're divorced,
20:20in case you forgot.
20:21Don't call me your wife next time we meet.
20:23As I shook him off,
20:24my childhood friend Dax Cross arrived.
20:27Dax stepped between us,
20:29his tall frame blocking Kian.
20:31He looked at me with a mixture of exasperation and affection.
20:34Scarlet Voss?
20:35You refused a political marriage with me for him?
20:37He gestured dismissively at Kian.
20:39Tsk.
20:40Terrible taste.
20:41He's not as handsome,
20:42not as noble as me,
20:44and most importantly,
20:45I've loved you faithfully for ten years.
20:47Him?
20:47He cheated after only three.
20:49The crowd gasped when Dax appeared.
20:51No one had seen my true identity.
20:53But everyone knew Dax Cross,
20:55one of the world's richest men.
20:57He was tall and strikingly handsome.
20:59Kian didn't compare,
21:00especially standing side by side.
21:02With Dax beside me,
21:03Kian finally felt threatened.
21:05Now that we were divorced,
21:06and he had hurt me deeply,
21:07winning me back was impossible.
21:08Scarlet Voss?
21:09Who is he?
21:10Kian demanded,
21:11his voice laced with jealousy.
21:12Before I could answer,
21:13Dax glared at him contemptuously.
21:15Who am I?
21:16I'm her fiancé,
21:17obviously.
21:18Kian's face contorted,
21:19You're divorced now.
21:21She won't marry anyone else.
21:22I shook my head with a helpless smile.
21:25Dax had always been direct,
21:26never hiding his feelings.
21:28I said to Dax,
21:29Let's go.
21:29I haven't visited my parents in a long time.
21:32Kian chased after us.
21:33Scarlet Voss?
21:34What about the Hale family?
21:36What about me?
21:37I paused but didn't turn around.
21:38Like I said before,
21:40as for you,
21:41we're divorced.
21:42You're none of my concern anymore.
21:44Kian finally broke down,
21:46tears streaming down his face.
21:47If I hadn't humiliated you for Chloe,
21:49if I had saved you halfway,
21:51would you have forgiven me?
21:52I finally turned to face him,
21:54my eyes devoid of warmth.
21:55If I wasn't Scarlet Voss,
21:57would you have realized your mistake?
21:58Would you have punished Chloe?
22:00Kian was silenced,
22:01unable to answer.
22:03I didn't stay any longer
22:04and left with Dax.
22:06In life,
22:07there are no what-ifs.
22:09A mistake's a mistake.
22:10There is no going back.
22:12The moment I stepped out
22:13of the French restaurant,
22:15the late autumn wind
22:16brushed my cheek.
22:17I tucked a loose strand of hair
22:18behind my ear.
22:19My high-end dress
22:21was stained and wrinkled,
22:22but it couldn't hide
22:23my innate nobilities.
22:25Scarlet,
22:25did you suffer?
22:27I shook my head
22:27and looked out
22:28at New York's busy streets.
22:29Neon lights glowed,
22:30but my heart felt no warmth.
22:32No.
22:33Better to see the truth early
22:34and be free.
22:35Better than waiting
22:36until it's too late.
22:37Dax started the car,
22:38and the black Maybach
22:39glided smoothly into traffic.
22:40He glanced at me.
22:41I've got people
22:42watching the Hale family.
22:43Hale's stock is crashing hard.
22:45Elias has called me
22:46dozens of times
22:47begging for mercy.
22:47I ignored every one.
22:49I leaned back in my seat
22:50and closed my eyes.
22:52Do what must be done.
22:53Show no mercy.
22:54Images of Kian's panicked face
22:56and his last unspoken words
22:57flashed through my mind,
22:59leaving only cold indifference.
23:00I had once saved the Hale family
23:02and raised them to the top,
23:03but they didn't cherish it.
23:05They walked straight into destruction
23:07with their own hands.
23:08The car entered
23:09a private villa complex.
23:10My sea secret residence
23:12in New York,
23:13far more elegant
23:13than the Hale family's
23:14flashy mansion.
23:15Ivy Cole waited at the door.
23:17Her eyes read
23:18as she hurried to help me.
23:21Miss, you're finally back.
23:23Are you all right?
23:24I'm fine.
23:25Have the kitchen
23:26make something light.
23:27Simple as fine.
23:28After washing up
23:29and changing
23:30into comfortable loungewear,
23:31a warm bowl of millet porridge
23:33eased my tension.
23:34Ivy Cole handed me a tablet.
23:37It showed the latest
23:38Hale Group stock chart,
23:39a steep green drop
23:40with no sign of recovery.
23:41Comments were exploding online.
23:43Investors were dumping shares,
23:44and the Hale family's market value
23:45had nearly halved in hours.
23:47Ivy Cole reported quietly,
23:48Miss,
23:49Elias sent expensive gifts
23:50and a handwritten apology letter.
23:51I sent them back.
23:52Kian called you dozens of times.
23:53I blocked him.
23:54He sent many texts,
23:55all apologizing,
23:56saying he knows he was wrong
23:57and begging for another chance.
23:59I glanced briefly
23:59at the preview text,
24:00full of I was confused,
24:01I was blinded by Chloe,
24:02I only love you.
24:03They felt bitterly ironic.
24:04After three years together,
24:06he had never truly known me.
24:07Did he really think
24:08a few apologies
24:09could erase all the harm?
24:10That I would still soften
24:11at his sweet words?
24:13I set down my spoon.
24:15Ignore them.
24:16I thought for a moment.
24:18Notify all New York partners
24:19to end all cooperation
24:20with the Hale family immediately.
24:22Also,
24:22compile evidence
24:23of the Hale family's
24:24illegal activities
24:25over the using
24:25the Voss family's influence
24:27and send it to the authorities.
24:28Ivy Cole nodded and left.
24:30Dax sat beside me.
24:31Scarlett,
24:31are you going to completely
24:32destroy the Hale family?
24:33They struck first.
24:35Kyan let Chloe humiliate me,
24:37even let men attack me.
24:38Did he ever think
24:38this day would come?
24:39No one crosses my bottom line,
24:41Scarlett Voss.
24:41Rest if you're tired.
24:42I'll handle things here.
24:44The night passed quietly.
24:45I woke at dawn
24:46to birds singing
24:47outside the window.
24:49Washing up,
24:50I received a call
24:51from Vera Knight.
24:52Mrs. Voss,
24:52good morning.
24:53The Hale group released
24:54an emergency statement
24:55begging for mercy
24:56this morning.
24:56They willing transfer
24:5730 back to their goof
24:58to you begging you
24:58to show leniency.
25:00Kyan has been waiting
25:00outside our bank
25:01since early morning
25:01to person apologize.
25:02I had my men turn him back.
25:04I don't want them.
25:06Hale's shares
25:06are worthless to me now.
25:08Tell Elias.
25:09If he wants mercy,
25:10he must bring Kyan
25:11to my brother's grave
25:12and co-hoad
25:13until I'm satisfied.
25:14My older brother,
25:15Silas Voss,
25:16had come to New York
25:17to inspect the market for me,
25:18only to be ambushed
25:19by bandits.
25:20In truth,
25:20the Hale family
25:21had plotted against him
25:22to seize the Voss family's
25:23assets in New York.
25:25I had hidden my identity
25:27partly to test Kyan
25:28and partly to gather evidence
25:30against the Hale family
25:31and avenge my brother.
25:33Vera Knight agreed
25:34and hung up.
25:35Ivis Cole entered.
25:37Miss,
25:37Mr. Cross is waiting
25:38downstairs.
25:39He wants to show you
25:40several projects
25:41in New York today.
25:42I nodded and changed
25:43into a simple black suit,
25:44outlining sharp lines,
25:45paired with high heels.
25:47My aura was overwhelming,
25:48a completely different person
25:49from the humiliated Scarlet
25:51the night before.
25:51Downstairs,
25:53Dax leaned against the car,
25:54eyes lighting up
25:55when he saw me.
25:56Scarlet,
25:56you look best in suits.
25:58I smiled and got in the car.
26:01Dax drove toward New York CDC.
26:03Though I had hidden my identity,
26:04I had never stopped
26:05expanding my influence
26:06in New York.
26:07Many companies
26:08were just some of my properties.
26:09I also controlled
26:10many tech and real estate projects.
26:12But Kyan had never noticed,
26:14always thinking
26:15I was a housewife
26:16dependent on him.
26:17The car pulled into
26:18a new office building
26:19housing my tech company.
26:20The director waited
26:22respectfully at the door.
26:23Mrs. Voss,
26:24you've arrived.
26:25We entered,
26:26and the director updated me
26:27on the company's progress.
26:28Dax stood beside me,
26:30adding details occasionally.
26:31Suddenly,
26:31noise came from the elevator.
26:33I turned to see Kyan,
26:34disheveled,
26:35eyes bloodshot,
26:35struggling desperately
26:36against security
26:37to reach me.
26:38Scarlet,
26:38Scarlet Voss,
26:39see me.
26:40I know I was wrong.
26:41I really know.
26:43He horsely shouted.
26:44Scarlet,
26:45I shouldn't have been
26:45blinded by Chloe.
26:46Security held him back,
26:48but he fought wildly,
26:49regret and begging
26:50in his eyes.
26:51I shouldn't have done
26:52those things to you.
26:53Give me one more chance.
26:55I'll give you everything
26:56the Hale family owns.
26:57Just forgive me.
26:58Employees stared
26:59and whispered.
27:00I frowned and told security,
27:02drag him out.
27:03Never let him near
27:03this place again.
27:04Yes,
27:05Ms. Voss.
27:05Scarlet,
27:06I know you still love me.
27:07You left everything
27:08in New York for me.
27:09You can't stop loving me.
27:10I watched coldly
27:12until he was gone,
27:13then turned back
27:14to the director.
27:15But I lost interest
27:16in the investition.
27:18Continue.
27:19Dax noticed my mood.
27:21Let's stop for today.
27:23I'll take you somewhere
27:23to relax.
27:25He brought me
27:26to a hot spring resort
27:27on New York's outskirts.
27:28It was quiet
27:29and secluded,
27:30far from the noise
27:31of the city.
27:32Soaking in the warm
27:33spring water,
27:34all my exhaustion
27:35melted away.
27:36Dax sat beside me.
27:38Scarlet,
27:38Kyan still thinks
27:39you hid your identity
27:40and stayed with him
27:41out of love.
27:42He never knew
27:42you had a purpose
27:43from the start.
27:44I stirred the water,
27:45creating ripples.
27:46Yes.
27:47He was too arrogant.
27:49He thought marrying him
27:50was the greatest luck
27:51of my life.
27:52He never wondered
27:53who I really was
27:54or why I chose him.
27:55When I first arrived
27:56in New York,
27:57Kyan had pursued me fiercely,
27:58gentle,
27:59generous,
28:00obedient,
28:01giving the new me
28:01a sense of belonging.
28:03With his apparent ambition,
28:04I thought he might
28:05be worth trusting.
28:06So I hid my identity
28:07to test him.
28:08I used the Voss family's
28:10power to clear his path,
28:12defeating rivals
28:12one by one,
28:13lifting the Hale family
28:15from obscurity
28:15to New York's richest.
28:17But as his status rose,
28:18so did his ambition
28:19and vanity.
28:20He began to look down
28:21on my commoner background,
28:22thinking I wasn't good enough
28:24for the richest man
28:24in New York.
28:25Women surrounded him,
28:27and Chloe was
28:27the most obnoxious.
28:29I hadn't ignored it.
28:30I had waited
28:31for him to repent
28:32and for the perfect chance
28:33to take down the Hale family.
28:35My birthday dinner
28:36had been that chance.
28:37To avenge Chloe,
28:38he set me up
28:39and humiliated me,
28:40letting me see
28:40his true colors clearly
28:41with no more hesitation.
28:43After the hot spring,
28:44Ivy Cole sent a message.
28:46Chloe had been abandoned
28:47by Kian,
28:48then betrayed by those
28:49who once fawned over her.
28:52Penniless and hounded by debt,
28:53she ended up on the streets,
28:55picking rotten vegetables
28:56from markets,
28:57living in misery.
28:58Meanwhile,
28:58Elias,
28:59to save the family,
29:00had indeed taken Kian
29:01to my brother's grave,
29:02cow-aiding for three full hours
29:04until his forehead
29:05bled heavily.
29:06Still,
29:06I did not relent.
29:07My brother's life
29:08could not be repaid
29:09with a few cohorts.
29:10What the Hale family owed me
29:11owed the Voss family
29:12I would take back,
29:13every last bit,
29:14with interest.
29:15Days passed.
29:16The Hale family's situation worsened.
29:18Partners canceled contracts.
29:19Banks demanded repayment.
29:20Authorities launched investigations.
29:22The Hale group soon collapsed
29:24and declared bankruptcy.
29:25Elias could not bear the shock
29:26and suffered a cerebral harmerage,
29:28falling into a vegetarial state.
29:30Kian went from the proudest,
29:32richest man in New York
29:33to a penless nobody overnight.
29:35He sold all his houses
29:37and luxury cars
29:38to pay for his father's medical bills,
29:39but it was nowhere near enough.
29:41He tried countless ways to see me,
29:43but I turned him aligned every time.
29:45He even went to beg the Voss elders,
29:47but they hated him
29:48and chased him away.
29:49One day,
29:49I accompanied Dax
29:50to a business anquent.
29:52Famous and wealthy figures
29:53filled the hall.
29:54As the Voss family heir
29:55from New York,
29:56I became the center of attention.
29:58Many who had once looked down
29:59on my commoner background
30:00now flattered me,
30:01their smiles obtusious,
30:03a stark contrast
30:04to their cold mockery
30:05that night
30:06at the French restaurant.
30:07Dax stood beside me,
30:09protecting me the entire time,
30:11his gentle affection
30:13impossible to hide.
30:15Halfway through the banquet,
30:16a commotion broke out at the door.
30:18Kian appeared,
30:19ragged,
30:20hair graying,
30:21face worn and exhausted,
30:23a completely different man
30:24from the confident Mr. Hall
30:26just months ago.
30:27He broke through security
30:28and ran toward me,
30:30falling to his knees with a thud.
30:31He grabbed my dress
30:32and begged desperately.
30:33Scarlet,
30:34I know I was wrong.
30:35I really do.
30:36Please save my father.
30:38Please give me a way to live.
30:39I don't want anything.
30:40I just want to stay by your side.
30:42I'll be your servant.
30:43I'll do anything.
30:45Everyone watched,
30:46pointing and sneering.
30:47I looked down at him,
30:48emotionless.
30:49I gently pulled my clothes free
30:50and stared down at him.
30:51Kian,
30:52look at yourself.
30:53What have you become?
30:54He looked up,
30:56tears streaming down his face.
30:58I'm a dog.
30:59I'm nothing but a dog.
31:01Scarlet,
31:01please forgive me.
31:02Give me one more chance.
31:04A chance?
31:05I gave you so many chances.
31:07When you let Chloe humiliate me.
31:09When you hit me.
31:10When you watched men attack me
31:12and did nothing.
31:13Did you ever think this day would come?
31:14I was blinded by Chloe.
31:16I was confused.
31:17Scarlet,
31:18I've only ever loved you.
31:20You're the only one I love.
31:21Love me?
31:22Your love is too cheap.
31:23I don't want it.
31:25Kian,
31:26remember this.
31:26You destroyed everything between us.
31:28You pushed the Hall family to ruin.
31:30This is all your own doing.
31:32No one else is to blame.
31:33I paused,
31:34gaze sweeping his pale face.
31:36Besides,
31:37you never loved me.
31:38You loved the Vos power behind me.
31:40You loved a tool that helped you reach the top.
31:43Now the tool is gone,
31:44you come crawling back?
31:46Do you really think that's possible?
31:48Pianess faced her nation.
31:50He sat on the floor,
31:50his light fading away.
31:52He opened his mouth but could say nothing.
31:55Security dragged him away.
31:57His screams and pleas faded into the night.
31:59I want to show you something.
32:01I want you to have everything you've ever dreamed of.
32:03I nodded and looked up at the starry sky,
32:05my heart clear and calm.
32:07Yes,
32:08it was all over.
32:09The shameful past,
32:10the painful memories,
32:11gone with the fall of the Hale family.
32:13After the banquet,
32:14Dax drove me home.
32:15As we rode through the night,
32:17he suddenly said,
32:17Scarlet,
32:18look how bright the stars are tonight.
32:20I looked up.
32:21The sky was dotted with stars,
32:23shining brilliantly,
32:24just like my future.
32:26Dax stopped the car and turned to me.
32:28Scarlet,
32:29I've waited for you ten years.
32:31From reckless youth to calm maturity,
32:33I've never changed.
32:35Now Kian is gone from your life.
32:38Will you give me a Jankwaith to stay by your side,
32:40to protect you forever?
32:41I looked into his deep,
32:43devoted eyes,
32:44and warmth filled my heart.
32:46Ten years.
32:47Dax had been with me for a decade.
32:49He stood by me in my hardest times.
32:51He managed everything while I hid my identity.
32:54He rushed to defend me the moment I was humiliated by Kian.
32:57I had felt his love all these years,
32:59but I had been too focused on revenge and plans to notice the warmth beside me.
33:03I smitely and nodded.
33:04Okay.
33:06Dax's eyes lit up instantly.
33:08He held my hand carefully,
33:09as if holding the whole world.
33:11The night wind blew gently outside,
33:13carried a fate fragrance.
33:14I leaned on his shoulder,
33:16watching the stars,
33:17full of hope.
33:19Kian's regret meant nothing to me.
33:21The Hall family's destruction was their own fault.
33:23I, Scarlet Voss,
33:25heir of the Voss family,
33:26had finally escaped my dark past and stepped into the light.
33:29With Dax by my side,
33:31the Voss family behind me,
33:32and my own efforts,
33:33my future would be full of flowers and endless glory.
33:36And those who had hurt me,
33:38would spend the rest of their lives in regret.
33:41functional watchmaking celebrates and甚麼 to you.
33:46And those who have done some time.
