00:00The paper in my hand was still warm. I'd come for answers about the lump, only to face betrayal that
00:05rewired me.
00:06Dad, I said, forcing my voice steady. Remember what you told me? I'm taking the baby overseas.
00:11They'll have my last name. I'll be a single mother by choice. You're right.
00:15For the first time, the decision felt cleaner. I saw my husband's hand on another woman's waist, guiding her like
00:21she was the only person.
00:23When I hung up, I watched Damien Kincaid touch Lila's back with tenderness he once reserved for me.
00:28Honey, Vivian will be upset. She's pregnant too.
00:31She won't know. I'm not telling her.
00:34He was devoted to her while I carried his baby.
00:37But lying forever isn't a plan. If she runs into us...
00:39What's there to fear? That baby's mine too.
00:43My stomach twisted. He said it like cancelling a subscription.
00:47If I hadn't been dumped, I wouldn't compete with Vivian.
00:49I owe you my life. I'm just repaying the debt.
00:53Mrs. Kincaid, you're lucky. Your husband is so attentive.
00:56Lila pretended shyness, soaking up the praise.
01:00Damien nodded.
01:01I stood there, test results burning a hole in my bag.
01:04I wasn't just betrayed, I was replaced.
01:06Then Lila's gaze locked on me. Smug, fake, sweet.
01:11Damien followed the nurse to get the checkup results.
01:14Lila excused herself to the restroom until the corridor was empty.
01:17You can come out now. Still not satisfied with the show?
01:20I took a step forward, my face filled with determination.
01:23So you're still pretending to be Mrs. Kincaid? Even though Damien doesn't love you?
01:27Bold, coming from the woman who knew he was married. And slid right in.
01:31Congrats. You're not a victim. You're a mistress?
01:35I knew Damien long before you. If I hadn't left, you'd never have his ring.
01:38Now I'm back carrying his baby. It's time you hand over what's mine.
01:42My heart ached, my vision blurred, but my body chose to stand.
01:45Lila snatched the document from my hand.
01:47She quickly scanned the conclusion.
01:50Answer, seriously? Are you gonna live long enough to have that baby?
01:53Or will you and your bastard go down together?
01:55Something inside me snapped.
02:02Lila deliberately fell, tears welling in her eyes.
02:05Vivian, I'm pregnant. Please don't hurt me.
02:07A violent shove came from behind. I fell, my stomach hitting first.
02:11Pain erupted. Breath caught. Please, my baby.
02:14Damien grabbed my arm and pulled me up.
02:16What's wrong with you? How could you hurt Lila?
02:19She's pregnant.
02:20Damien, don't fight for me. It's my fault.
02:22If Vivian wants to hit me, I'll take it.
02:24Just let the baby be okay.
02:26Vivian, you're wrong. Apologize.
02:29Apologize? Do you even know what this is?
02:31He merely glanced at it, then tore it to shreds.
02:34Enough. I don't care.
02:36You were cruel today.
02:37You're pregnant too. How can you be so heartless?
02:40Tears welled up, humiliating and scalding.
02:43Just apologize. I know you're stressed.
02:46After the baby's born, I'll make it up to you.
02:50He pushed me towards Lila. Victory shone in Lila's eyes.
02:53I looked at Damien and saw the truth. He had made his choice.
02:56I'm not apologizing. You two should be the one saying sorry.
03:00I turned and walked away. Lila's cries sounded like applause.
03:06Behind me, Damien's breath caught. For a heartbeat, I thought he might chase me.
03:10Damien, my belly hurts, but Vivian matters more. Go after her.
03:14Forget her. You're what matters.
03:16She's eight months pregnant and throwing tantrums.
03:19She won't leave. I'll fix it later.
03:21I went home to a house that no longer felt mine.
03:24Since Lila's return, Damien had vanished more and more.
03:27The warmth we'd built drained away.
03:29Standing in the living room, I felt like an overstayed guest.
03:32I took down our wedding photo and dropped it in the trash.
03:35The dull thud felt final. I was done leaving traces of myself.
03:39For a man who didn't want to remember me.
03:41Hauling a trash bag to the stairs, the front door opened.
03:44Damien carried Lila like a tragic heroine, his face tender.
03:47When he saw me, panic flickered. He hated being caught, not what he'd done.
03:52Lila's not feeling well. You pushed her earlier.
03:55If she's sick, take her to the hospital. Did our living room become an ER?
03:59Watch your mouth. I'm cleaning up your mess.
04:02Lila stayed.
04:03Vivian, don't get it twisted. I'm just here to rest and protect the baby.
04:07This is our home, I said, voice steady. I won't let her move in.
04:11Damien hesitated, until Lila laced her fingers with his, guiding his hand to her stomach.
04:17Enough, Vivian. You're pregnant too. Where's your compassion?
04:21If you can't handle this, you'll leave.
04:23The words hit like ice. I nodded, voice thin.
04:27Fine, I'll go.
04:28I grabbed the trash bag and walked into the cold.
04:30Honey, she took down your wedding photo.
04:32Ignore her. She loves drama.
04:34I dumped the trash, shaking. He thought I'd beg to come back. He had no idea I'd rather walk into
04:40darkness alone, than live in a house where I was the pro-
04:44I thought I was already broken. Until a sound from the nursery blurred my vision. That was Damien's promise. He
04:51furnished it himself. He swore our child would have everything. Now it feels like someone is stealing my future.
04:56Get out!
04:58What's wrong with you?
05:04Are you giving this room to her?
05:06She likes it here. What's the big deal?
05:09This room means to us...
05:10Enough. You constantly disappoint me. If you continue like this, I'll reconsider our marriage. You don't want the child fatherless,
05:19do you?
05:19Don't be afraid. Mommy will give you better.
05:37Damien's voice was full of patience and affection. He advised her on how to handle morning sickness, how to soothe
05:43a baby, how to rest. These tips he once dismissively threw at me. Now I understand he was just practicing
05:49on me. To be perfectly flawless for Lila. Every bowl of soup, every parenting book, every detail of the nursery.
05:55He experimented with all of it on me and our child. I was just his training ground. My child, just
06:01his trial period. It's okay, you'll be leaving soon. You and your child deserve a better life.
06:08Lila moved in, my marriage ended with a sigh. Damien's focus was solely on her. I became his shadow. Going
06:14for water, I heard her voice.
06:21Darling, the Kincaid pendant is lucky. Baby keeps me up. Can I wear it until he settles?
06:26My fingers clutched the pendant. It's the Kincaid wife's mark. Worn on my wedding night. No second Kincaid wife.
06:33Of course, dear. Wear it as long as you like.
06:36His words struck me like a slap. I turned to leave, but the floor creaked.
06:45Damien froze. Guilt flashed.
06:47Vivian, you heard. She's pregnant. Needs support. Just let her borrow it.
06:53I nodded blankly, stomach cramped.
06:55She can have it, but sign this.
06:57Damien laughed, thinking I was sulking. He signed without looking.
07:01Happy now. I'll buy you anything. We'll work this out.
07:10She can keep it.
07:16He didn't notice, went to Lila. Lila let out a joyful shriek.
07:25I stood by the window, silent. Tomorrow I will truly leave.
07:29Then I heard Lila's voice, soft and rotten.
07:31Darling, you got it too easily.
07:40I should have locked the bedroom door.
07:42Damien was back, pretending everything was normal, approaching me as he always did.
07:46I flinched away.
07:48His late return, Lila's name in his phone, his fake tenderness made every touch sickening.
07:53After midnight, his phone vibrated.
07:55I'm coming, darling. Don't cry.
07:57He swung his legs off the bed, no longer caring about my sleep.
08:01Barefoot, I followed him silently like a shadow.
08:04Lila's door was ajar, warm light spilling from within.
08:12She lay on the bed, hair disheveled, tears glistening.
08:16Her nightgown slipped from one shoulder.
08:18The moment Damien saw her, his face softened.
08:20All his hidden tenderness pouring out.
08:23I'm here for you.
08:24I can't sleep without you. I wake up trembling, afraid.
08:27I'll protect you.
08:28I'll stay with you tonight.
08:30Lila feigned guilt.
08:31But I took you away from Vivian.
08:33The baby is restless, only you can calm him.
08:35Don't worry about her.
08:36She's strong.
08:38She can take care of herself.
08:39I stood frozen, listening to them talk about me as if I were just a nuisance.
08:44The doctor said the baby is stable.
08:46Tonight, let me take care of you.
08:49Damien kissed her hungrily.
08:50The door closed, followed by a grating sound etched into my heart, unforgettable.
08:54I returned to bed, curling up and holding my belly tight.
08:57This was the only thing that felt truly mine.
08:59Damien didn't come back all night.
09:02I stared at the ceiling until dawn.
09:04The emptiness beside me reminded me of the choice he had made.
09:08By sunrise, I was packed, quiet, final.
09:11Rolling my suitcase downstairs, I found Damien.
09:14In the kitchen, spoon-feeding Lila soup like she was a princess.
09:17He looked warm, patient, everything he hadn't been for me.
09:21I walked past them.
09:22Lila didn't feel well, so I made her tomato soup.
09:25What are you doing?
09:26I cook her soup, and you throw a fit?
09:29You're petty.
09:35It's just soup.
09:36Check your neck before lying.
09:38Mosquitoes.
09:39My silence enraged him.
09:41Enough.
09:42Stop acting jealous and crazy.
09:44I stumbled back, hand flying to my belly.
09:47Regret crossed his face for a split second.
09:49Damien, it's my fault.
09:51Let me apologize.
09:52She held out the soup bowl, lipstick smudged on the rim.
09:55Back off.
09:55She stepped closer, forcing the bowl toward me.
09:58Something snapped.
09:59I knocked it away.
10:00Damien, it burns.
10:01She held out her hand, a faint pink mark on her skin.
10:04I've got you.
10:05Didn't I tell you to be considerate?
10:07You attacked her.
10:08I'm not apologizing, I said, pulling back.
10:11No.
10:12You're gonna learn.
10:13He shoved my hand into the hot soup pot.
10:15White hot pain erupted.
10:17I screamed, tears blurring my vision.
10:19That's a warning.
10:20Hurt her again, and you'll regret it.
10:23My baby kicked frantically, sensing my fear.
10:25Damien hesitated.
10:26Then Lila cried out, and he snapped back to her.
10:29I fell hard.
10:30A sharp cramp tore through my lower belly.
10:32Warmth spread between my thighs.
10:34Blood.
10:35Damien, the baby.
10:36Don't use the baby to manipulate me.
10:38You hurt Lila.
10:40You and that kid don't matter as much as her.
10:42He scooped Lila up and ran out, leaving me alone.
10:44I lay on the floor, shaking, bleeding, burned.
10:47I grabbed my phone with my good hand and dialed 911.
10:52Harsh hospital light stabbed my eyes.
10:55Nurses pushed my gurney down the corridor.
10:57Get OB here.
10:58Possible placental abruption.
10:59We need a doctor now.
11:01Honey, we need your husband to sign consent forms.
11:04The phone rang.
11:05Unanswered.
11:06Again.
11:07Again.
11:07On the third call, it went to voicemail.
11:10Tear slipped.
11:11Of course he didn't answer.
11:12He was with Lila.
11:13He always chose her.
11:15Do you have anyone else?
11:16Parents?
11:17A friend?
11:18I reached for the clipboard.
11:19I'll sign.
11:20My fingers shook, but I scrawled my name.
11:22I'd stop begging men to be decent.
11:24They wheeled me to labor and delivery.
11:27Minutes passed.
11:27No doctor came.
11:29Why are we waiting?
11:30A Kincaid VIP arrived.
11:33His pregnant girlfriend has a minor burn.
11:35He pulled the on-call team.
11:36Even OB staff.
11:38The words hit like a punch.
11:39I was his wife.
11:41Bleeding.
11:41Dying.
11:42And Lila got the whole hospital.
11:44Pain convulsed through me.
11:46My vision darkened.
11:47I tried.
11:48God, I tried.
11:48Right before blacking out, I heard a scream.
11:51We're losing her.
11:51Get in here.
11:52When I woke, I reached for my belly.
11:54Flat.
11:54Panic surged.
11:56My baby?
11:57A nurse hurried in, carrying a tiny bundle.
11:59She placed him in my arms.
12:01Warm.
12:02Real.
12:02Breathing.
12:03I clung to him, sobbing.
12:05I promised never to let anyone treat us like we were disposable.
12:08Two weeks later, I stood in the airport, baby on my shoulder, passport in my bag.
12:13I'd signed the final papers.
12:14A screen flashed a headline.
12:16Damien Kincaid fights for his pregnant lover.
12:19Private doctors, security, romance packaged as a circus.
12:22I didn't blink.
12:24I boarded the plane, never looking back.
12:26He was about to learn I was already gone.
12:30After Damien took Lila to the ER, my voice kept echoing in his mind.
12:34He was about to contact me until Lila cried,
12:36Damien, I'm in so much pain.
12:38My stomach hurts.
12:39Is the baby okay?
12:40I tried to apologize to Vivian, but she lost control.
12:43Damien's face stiffened.
12:45I did spoil her.
12:46But she's carrying my child.
12:48I can't.
12:49Damien reached for his phone.
12:51Lila noticed.
12:52Darling, Vivian has been texting me.
12:54She threatened to kill my baby.
12:56Vivian isn't like that.
12:57Are you sure you saw it right?
12:59Lila showed him her phone.
13:01Damien stared at the screen.
13:02His face grew darker.
13:04He was ready to believe the worst.
13:05I will protect you.
13:07If she goes too far, I'll kick her out.
13:10They stayed in the hospital for a week.
13:12The doctors found nothing wrong with Lila.
13:14But Lila reveled in the joy of being cared for.
13:16Damien returned home expecting me to be there, sulking.
13:19Waiting for him to coax me.
13:21However, the house was empty.
13:22He sighed, thinking I had just gone out for a walk and would soon return.
13:27A month passed.
13:28I never returned.
13:29Fear crept in.
13:30What if I was dying then?
13:31He went to the police station providing my name and photo.
13:34He told them everything he knew.
13:36He even rehearsed in his mind how he would scold me.
13:39Mr. Kincaid, your marriage with Ms. Langford has been legally dissolved.
13:43You cannot file a missing person report.
13:46Damien was utterly shocked.
13:50What did you say?
13:51You are divorced.
13:52You have no right to inquire about her whereabouts.
13:55Impossible.
13:56I've never been divorced.
13:58The officer prints the documents.
14:00He gripped the papers, knuckles white.
14:02He slumped on the sofa, memories flooding back.
14:05Vivian's smile, her tenderness for him.
14:07And the child he once desired.
14:09He looked around.
14:10This house was no longer hers.
14:12Within a month, Lila erased all traces.
14:14No photos of her, no decorations she chose.
14:16No shared furniture, wedding photos gone.
14:18Lila walked in, turning on the light.
14:21She snatched the papers, scanning quickly.
14:23Her lips curved, then she hid it.
14:25Damien, how did you and Vivian divorce?
14:27Her eyes gleamed, filled with greed.
14:29Damien saw it clearly, all too clear.
14:32The nursery is now her space.
14:33It's filled with her belongings.
14:35Her belongings were tossed like trash.
14:39The police made a mistake, repeating it, like a mantra.
14:43If you're divorced, why don't we get married?
14:45Make it official.
14:46I just said I'm not divorced.
14:48Why are you pushing this?
14:50I'm not trying to steal anything.
14:52I just want our baby to have a father.
14:53It hurts, please take me to the hospital.
14:56It worked.
14:57Damien carried her back.
14:58Hovering like he was proving he wasn't the villain.
15:01Lila sipped creamy mushroom soup.
15:03Convinced she'd reined him in.
15:04Then Damien stepped out and called Logan.
15:06I want a full report on Lila.
15:08Everything.
15:09Pull all the cameras, house, street, everything.
15:12He'd never planned to investigate her.
15:14But her eagerness for marriage had raised flags.
15:17For so long she'd acted selfless.
15:19Just wanting to stay by his side.
15:21And he'd eaten it up, needing to feel like a hero.
15:24Not a cheater.
15:25Now that selflessness felt like strategy.
15:27Damien admitted it to himself.
15:29He couldn't explain how he'd gotten here.
15:31He'd told himself he was helping Lila.
15:33Out of gratitude.
15:35Then one night, too much alcohol.
15:36Secret, a pregnancy.
15:38And Lila's tears had convinced him.
15:40He could manage it all.
15:41Because he thought I'd forgive anything.
15:43I'd been four months pregnant then.
15:45Feeling our baby's first flutters.
15:47Still protecting his pride.
15:49My softness had given him permission.
15:51To choose Lila again and again.
15:53Now regret settled in his chest.
15:55He'd mistaken my love for a guarantee.
15:59A commotion came from Lila's room.
16:01Damien found her on the window ledge, tears streaming.
16:04I can't let our baby be a secret.
16:06I'll take him and disappear.
16:08So you can find Vivian with a clear conscience.
16:17Lila, stop.
16:18What?
16:19Let our baby be born without a father?
16:20That day in the fire and I don't regret saving you.
16:23But I can't let our baby suffer.
16:30Okay.
16:31I'll handle it.
16:32The baby won't be a secret.
16:39You're already divorced.
16:40The baby's due soon.
16:42Are you gonna let him be born into nothing?
16:48I'll marry you.
16:55England, my plane has landed.
16:58Holding my baby, new life awaits.
17:00Cold, fresh air.
17:01No more betrayal.
17:02Dad, Mom.
17:03Slow down, you have the baby.
17:05I'm here, you are home.
17:07You suffered, it's over.
17:08We support you.
17:09Damien won't leave you in peace.
17:11He thrives on others' pain.
17:13This is a Lanford.
17:15No Kincaid money.
17:16He is the Lanford heir.
17:18I declare it.
17:19Driving away, I swore to myself.
17:21I no longer crave love.
17:22Years of silent compromise.
17:23That fire, you saved him.
17:25No thanks.
17:26Your scars, I wanted to tear the world.
17:29I gaze out, throat tight.
17:31Some wounds don't heal quietly.
17:32Some pains won't wait.
17:41Tired, Damien brought Lila back home.
17:43She reverted to her old ways, acting imperiously.
17:46Darling, I'm hungry.
17:47Make me cream of mushroom soup again.
17:49Damien stared at her, his eyes weary.
17:51Her hysteria in the hospital was all in act.
17:54I'm exhausted.
17:55Not tonight.
17:57Lila pouted, her eyes welling up.
17:59Don't you care about me anymore?
18:00I should have jumped from the hospital.
18:02She ran upstairs, crying sacrifice.
18:04Damien rubbed his temples.
18:06He had never been so threatened and manipulated.
18:09Enough.
18:09Come down.
18:10I'll make the soup.
18:16He made the soup as if atoning.
18:24After the soup was ready, Lila smiled.
18:26Feed me like you used to.
18:28Damien looked at the spoon, his mind racing.
18:30He only felt weariness.
18:32No.
18:32End.
18:33Lila ate furiously.
18:35Disgust welled up in him.
18:36Lila's true colors sobered him.
18:38He remembered Vivian's tenderness.
18:40He had so easily given up that love.
18:44Lila kept urging on the wedding plans.
18:47Damien finally conceded.
18:53He stood there watching Lila weave through the racks.
18:56Vivian's image instantly flooded his mind.
18:59How do I look?
18:59Is your girl pretty?
19:00Damien's gaze froze.
19:02Her back was smooth and unblemished.
19:04No scars, no burn marks.
19:05If Lila hadn't saved him from the fire, then what exactly had he destroyed?
19:10To repay a debt that wasn't hers?
19:11He forced a smile.
19:13He drove her back to the manor.
19:19Logan arrived, hesitation in his eyes.
19:22He brought the investigation results.
19:28Where are you going?
19:30Work.
19:30Go shopping.
19:36The moment he turned, his expression froze.
19:39The truth is about to be revealed.
19:42I didn't watch Damien fall apart.
19:45In real time, I saw it later.
19:47Through paper trails, Logan's reports.
19:49Security footage.
19:50The first crack.
19:51Came when Logan handed him the file.
20:03Divorce papers.
20:04Real.
20:05Legal.
20:05His signature bold at the bottom.
20:12Then he saw the last page.
20:14My cancer diagnosis.
20:16Damien froze.
20:17He remembered the hospital.
20:18Me shoving the report at him.
20:20Him tearing it up because Lila?
20:22Lila was crying.
20:23He sank to the floor.
20:24How does Vivian have cancer?
20:26He grabbed the USB drive.
20:28From Logan jamming it into the computer.
20:30My face appeared.
20:31On screen.
20:32He watched us at the prenatal clinic.
20:35Him and Lila smiling.
20:36Me standing silent, pale.
20:37He watched Lila bait me.
20:39Watched himself choose her.
20:41Watched me pull out the cancer.
20:43Report.
20:43Watched himself tear.
20:45It to pieces.
20:46Tears ran down his face.
20:48Consequences not romance.
20:49Next clip.
20:50The Kinkade estate.
20:51My fear.
20:52Lila's smugness.
20:53Blood spreading beneath me.
20:55As he walked away.
20:56He clutched his head.
20:57Replaying it until he collapsed.
20:59Unconscious.
21:00Muttering my name.
21:01Logan rushed him to the hospital.
21:03Lila was left screaming his name.
21:05Ignored for the first time.
21:09Lila found the scattered documents.
21:11In Damien's office.
21:12When she saw my cancer report.
21:14Her mouth curled with satisfaction.
21:16She'd suspected it.
21:17My hollow cheeks.
21:19My exhaustion.
21:20My slow movements.
21:21Damien had been too arrogant to notice.
21:23Lila wasn't chasing love.
21:25She was chasing a crown.
21:26She'd checked my hospital records.
21:28Taunted me to see how close I was to breaking.
21:30She loved watching me crumble.
21:32Hated that I refused to give her the reaction she wanted.
21:35Divorcing me the right way would take time.
21:37And she didn't have it.
21:39She wanted the Kinkade name for her baby.
21:41No loose ends.
21:42And she knew her leverage was a lie.
21:44The life-saving debt.
21:46She needed to secure her prize.
21:47Before the lie collapsed.
21:49The day she framed me.
21:50She saw the blood.
21:52Heard me call Damien's name.
21:53She panicked.
21:55Not for me but that he'd turn back.
21:56So she clung to him.
21:58Dragged him to the hospital.
21:59Made herself the emergency.
22:01Then she'd taken his phone.
22:02Blocking the hospital number.
22:04After the third call.
22:05She smiled.
22:06Thinking she'd won.
22:09Lila thought I was out.
22:11Hearing of our divorce she relaxed.
22:13The title Mrs. Kincaid was hers she thought.
22:21She forced Damien to marry her in court.
22:23He broke down.
22:24She escalated threatening self-harm.
22:26You owe me.
22:27Until he agreed.
22:29Then files, videos, Damien's breakdown.
22:31Her lies exposed.
22:32She tore up the documents.
22:44Packing luxury items.
22:45Slipping away quietly.
22:52In the hospital Damien awoke.
22:54Staring at the ceiling.
23:00The smell of disinfectant triggered his memories.
23:03He learned I pawned the jade.
23:05Just to speed up divorce.
23:06This was proof of my desperation.
23:08He finally understood.
23:10Lila never saved him.
23:11He grabbed Logan.
23:12Find Vivian now.
23:13At all costs.
23:14Bring her back.
23:15She has cancer.
23:16She has my child.
23:18Lock Lila up.
23:19No escape.
23:19No tricks.
23:20Logan was stunned.
23:21Go now.
23:34Logan returned out of breath.
23:36Lila fled.
23:38Closet empty.
23:39A note.
23:40She thinks she can escape?
23:41Forget her.
23:42Find Vivian in three days.
23:45Or else.
23:51Next day, Damien had an address.
23:53laughs.
24:09Listen.
24:18Thanks.
24:20Thanks.
24:22Eric Del입니다.
24:24Chaos inside the apartment
24:36Damien thank god he attacked me
24:38Lila
24:38Your lies are endless
24:40She seduced me I don't know her
24:42Damien recognized her ex-husband
24:44He was tricked by Lila before
24:46She took all his money then
24:48Now she targeted Damien again
25:02Lila's ex-lover finally confessed everything
25:04I was foolish to trust her
25:06I took her abroad and married her
25:08We had a simple happy life
25:09She was pregnant I wanted her to live well
25:11Until I ran out of money
25:12The debts piled up but she refused leaving me in debt
25:15She wouldn't even look at me
25:17Then she flew home alone leaving me to face ruin
25:20After returning she targeted Damien
25:22He was at his lowest
25:23She approached him with a savior lie
25:25Initially she only wanted money
25:27Her eyes were on his wealth
25:29But found his emotional dependence
25:31She fed his guilt
25:32She exploited Damien's guilt
25:34Her control deepened
25:35Settily she grew bolder
25:37Constantly demanding more
25:38His funds dwindled
25:40Dragging him into an abyss
25:41His business empire faces collapse
25:43The news spread rapidly
25:45Lila watched it all unfold
25:49She didn't even know who the baby's father was
25:51When I found out she was back
25:53I threatened her with photos
25:54She flew me here
25:55And we fell back into old habits
26:02He's lying
26:03He's blackmailing me
26:19Damien help our baby
26:21I love you
26:21That's not my baby
26:22And even if it were
26:25It can die
26:26Everything you did to Vivian
26:28I know it all
26:29Losing this pregnancy
26:30Is the kindest thing
26:42Tell me the truth
26:43Who pulled me out of the fire
26:47Damien asked her to come closer
26:49Because she was the first face
26:50He saw after the fire
26:51When he asked if she saved him
26:53She just nodded
26:54He slapped her hard
26:55Speak
26:56Or we'll have a different conversation
26:58Lila broke down
27:00I don't know her name
27:01Only that she's called Lanford
27:02She was badly burned
27:03Being treated in the room
27:04Next to yours
27:05You asked if I saved you
27:07I just nodded
27:08You believed it
27:09It's not my fault
27:10Damien's heart tightened
27:12Lanford
27:12Memories flooded back
27:14She avoided my touch
27:15Always keeping the lights dim
27:16She would flinch
27:17When fabric brushed her skin
27:19If she was the one
27:20Who saved me
27:21He was not only a liar
27:22But a bad husband
27:23He protected the wrong woman
27:25Yet destroyed his savior
27:26He waved to the guards
27:28Drag her out
27:29I keep my word
27:37You'll never find Vivian
27:38She's gone
27:39You removed her doctor
27:40Your child may die
27:41Cancer
27:42She'll be dead
27:43No regrets then
27:43Lila's words struck Damien hard
27:45I'm sorry
27:46Keep me
27:46I'll do all
27:47I'll be your dog
27:48Serve Vivian
27:48Drag her out
27:50Guards moved at his command
27:51Lila's screams were muffled
27:53Lila dragged deeper
27:54Cries fading
27:55Soon
27:56An unforgettable sound
27:57Damien looked to the accomplice
27:59Take him too
28:00He deceived me
28:01Make him pay
28:02Her ex-lover pleaded trembling
28:04Guards forcibly took him away
28:06He too stepped into darkness
28:08As Damien left
28:09All fell silent
28:10Guilt and regret for Vivian
28:12He sought the path to truth
28:15Back with my parents in the UK
28:17The first few days felt unreal
28:19Clean sheets
28:20Warm food
28:20A quiet room
28:21No stench of betrayal
28:22I allowed myself to rest
28:24Until the cancer reminded me
28:26It wasn't over
28:26Waves of nausea
28:28Aching bones
28:28Some mornings I'd stand up
28:30And my vision would black out
28:31I looked at my newborn
28:32So small and helpless
28:34Felt a primal urge
28:35I wanted to live
28:36For him
28:37For my parents
28:38For the life I built
28:39I told my mom
28:40She broke down
28:41Tears streaming
28:42Why didn't you tell us sooner?
28:44Why didn't you come home sooner?
28:46I was afraid you'd hate me
28:47Because I chose Damien
28:49Mom held me tightly
28:51She drove me to the hospital
28:52For tests
28:53Scans
28:54Blood draws
28:54Dad arrived breathless
28:56And brought my college friend Elliot
28:58Are you stubborn child?
29:00We would never blame you
29:02The doctor handed the report to dad
29:04Mid-stage
29:05But treatable
29:06Friends have the best specialists
29:08But they're hard to book
29:09Name your price
29:10I'll use half my fortune
29:12My daughter will not die
29:14Mr. Langford
29:16I can reach him
29:19Elliot's eyes held raw tenderness
29:21I avoided his gaze
29:22We'd barely known each other in college
29:24But I needed him
29:25I wanted to live
29:26Within days
29:27The specialist flew to the UK
29:29My diagnosis shifted
29:30We can treat this
29:32Then
29:32Surgery scheduled
29:33Mom sobbed hugging me
29:35Relief flooded me
29:36I could live
29:37Raise my baby
29:38Keep my promises
29:39The next month was routine
29:41Appointments
29:42Blood work
29:42Counting days
29:43The farther from Damien
29:45The quieter my body felt
29:46With mom and dad close
29:47My strength returned
29:48Appetite
29:49Sleep
29:50Energy
29:50I thought Damien was gone for good
29:52We were divorced
29:53He had Lila
29:54A baby
29:55He should have been celebrating
29:56Then
29:56The day before surgery
29:58I saw him at the estate gates
29:59Aged a year
30:00Eyes red-rimmed
30:01Cheeks hollow
30:02When he saw me
30:03Something bright and desperate
30:04Lit up in him
30:05He stared like he couldn't get enough
30:07I angled away
30:08Heading inside
30:09He took a step toward me
30:10I gave him a flat glance
30:12No warmth
30:12No nostalgia
30:13And kept walking
30:14He lunged
30:15Arms open
30:16I slipped away
30:16Vivian wait
30:18I found you
30:19Why did you leave
30:20Why did you divorce
30:23He said divorce with such pain
30:26I'd never seen him cry
30:27But his tears didn't soften me
30:29They made me sick
30:30Enough Mr. Kincaid
30:31We are divorced
30:32Please have some self-respect
30:34I'm your husband
30:35That signature doesn't count
30:37I didn't know anything then
30:39Let go
30:39The divorce is final
30:41Vivian
30:42I miss you
30:43I messed up
30:44Forgive me
30:55What do you want?
30:56Don't bother with apologies
30:58I won't forgive you
30:59Lila hurt you
31:00I punished her
31:02Her baby is gone
31:03She's ruined
31:04She lied
31:05The baby isn't mine
31:07Watching him I felt cold
31:09He acted like he was doing me a favor
31:10As if I should thank him for abandoning
31:13The woman he once protected
31:14Enough
31:15Wasn't she your savior?
31:17You treat her like trash
31:18And the child is nothing
31:19I never slept with her
31:21I was deceived
31:25I pulled out my phone
31:26Scrolling to photos
31:27His hands on her waist
31:29Her lipstick on his collar
31:30Hotel time stamps
31:32Smug captions
31:33Damien's color drained
31:34He said nothing
31:35You're still lying
31:37Go
31:37I have cancer
31:38Surgery tomorrow
31:40I don't have time for your guilt
31:41Vivian no
31:42I can't lose you
31:44You loved me
31:45Don't you remember?
31:47We have a baby
31:48Don't let them grow up
31:49Without a father
31:50Worried about my baby?
31:52Where were you?
31:53Pulled doctors for Lila?
31:55For her minor burn?
31:56When I begged you?
31:57To take me to the hospital?
31:59That child is mine
32:00Not ours
32:01Langford's don't share blood
32:03With men?
32:04Who abandon women in emergencies?
32:06You'll never claim them
32:07You're the reason
32:09Everything happened
32:10If I hadn't been lucky
32:12My baby and I would be dead
32:14Stay away
32:15Disappear
32:15I can't
32:16Forgive me
32:17I'll spend my life
32:19Making it up to you
32:21He surged forward
32:22Arms out
32:22I twisted away
32:24But too slow
32:24A hand shot in
32:25Yanking Damien back
32:29Enough
32:30She doesn't want to see you
32:32She has surgery tomorrow
32:33Leave her alone
32:34Who are you?
32:35This is my wife
32:36And my business
32:37Ex-wife
32:38We divorced a month ago
32:40I am Vivian's fiance
32:41After surgery
32:42We'll marry
32:43You're just an ex
32:45She's not yours
32:46I'll treat her child
32:47As my own
32:48You're out of the game
32:49Security
32:49Security
32:50Security
33:00I'm sorry
33:01You're hurt
33:02If you sue him
33:03I'll support you
33:04Will you always be on my side?
33:05Always
33:06What I said before
33:07Wasn't a joke
33:08Please consider it
33:09Okay?
33:10I think I hurt the baby
33:11Do as you please
33:27We'll both be fine
33:29Mommy will get better
33:30No one will bother us again
33:34The next morning
33:36We drove to the hospital
33:37Nerves tightened
33:38Hands cold
33:38Throat tight
33:39Breathe
33:40Surgery will go well
33:41We'll be right outside
33:43The baby's waiting
33:44I'll come out healthy
33:46I'll take care of you
33:47When you're old
33:48A nurse called my name
33:59Vivian
34:00Vivian
34:00Wait
34:00I have to talk
34:11You have nerve showing up here?
34:14You promised to protect her
34:16Now she's fighting for life
34:18Get out
34:19Never come near her again
34:20I'm sorry
34:21I didn't know Lila
34:23Give me one chance
34:24No
34:24I haven't gone after
34:26Kincaid group
34:27That's the only mercy
34:29You've gotten
34:30Thief
34:31You'll learn what happens
34:32When you threaten my family
34:34We should have let you burn
34:36Vivian saved you
34:37She pulled you out of that fire
34:39Drag him out
34:40If he fights
34:41Break something
34:42Damien didn't resist
34:44He was hauled away
34:45Empty
34:47The surgery succeeded
34:49Damien left
34:50Flew back to the US
34:51Recovery was slow
34:52But I improved
34:53Weeks later
34:54I held my baby
34:54My hands no longer
34:56Trembled holding him
34:57His bright eyes
34:58Reminded me of Damien
34:59I hated this feeling
35:00Phone vibrated
35:01A news alert popped up
35:03Damien Kincaid arrested
35:04I read the article
35:05After surgery
35:06Dad mobilized Lanford
35:08Attack Kincaid group
35:09From all angles
35:10Elliot also provided
35:11Strategic support
35:12Kincaid wasn't bankrupt
35:14It was devoured
35:15Damien sank
35:16Drank
35:16Disappeared
35:17Company filed for bankruptcy
35:19His money became debt
35:20He tried to see me
35:21But dad and Elliot
35:22Stopped him
35:23He gave up
35:24Drowned in alcohol
35:25Lila and her lover
35:26Sued him
35:26Retaliate for Damien's blow
35:28Claimed huge losses
35:29But Damien had nothing
35:31Court sentenced him
35:32To 20 years
35:33Lila and her lover
35:34Ultimately gained nothing
35:36I deleted all traces
35:37Of Damien on my phone
35:38Photos
35:39Messages
35:40Contacts like
35:40Disinfecting a wound
35:41Elliot's feelings
35:43I owe no one
35:43I have my child
35:45My name
35:45From that moment
35:46My focus was simple
35:47To be a single mother
35:49By choice
35:49Build Lanford group
35:50Into an unshakable fortress
35:52Ensure my child
35:53Build and I are safe
35:54From men
35:54Build and I are safe from men
36:22Build and I are safe from men
36:23Move and under the stairs
36:26Do not be able to borrow theue
