He Dared Me To Divorce Him 2026 - Full EP πŸ’”πŸ”₯😀
Transcript
00:00On our first wedding anniversary, my husband, Dante Ricci, handed me divorce papers.
00:04Hung out with your two ex-husbands yesterday. We played truth or dare. I lost, so they dared
00:07me to get you to sign them. Bet you wouldn't have the guts to go through with it.
00:11Babe, you're not gonna let them get away with that, are you?
00:13I have two ex-husbands, my childhood friends Marco Rosotti and Luca Barbieri.
00:19But those first two marriages were just business, to help their families out of a jam.
00:24Only my marriage to Dante was for love. I thought I'd finally found my home,
00:28until I overheard the three of them talking.
00:30Kiara's sick. Her dying wish is for the three of us to spend one whole month with her,
00:34just the three of us. Dante, you can handle that, can't you?
00:37Of course. I'll get Isabella to sign the divorce papers, I'll just tell her it's a dare,
00:41and we'll get remarried after the month is up.
00:43I heard everything. I didn't let on. I just calmly signed the papers.
00:48Then I texted my father, the godfather of the Romano family.
00:52Father, I'm divorced. That arranged marriage you mentioned, is the offer still on the table?
00:58I was standing outside our front door, holding a gift from Chicago. Dante loves.
01:02The conversation inside continued.
01:05Will Isabella go for it? Of course she will. She knows the rules.
01:10Besides, Bella's a pushover. Never makes waves.
01:13Exactly.
01:15She's gotten us out of so much trouble. This time will be no different.
01:18Ever since we got married, Dante had always acted like he hated Marco and Luca.
01:22I thought he was jealous. I was even a little smug about it.
01:25Now I knew the truth. The three of them were close. So close they could plot its knee against together.
01:30I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. So that's all I was to them.
01:34My feelings, my dignity, my marriage. Just tools for them to use.
01:38I turned around, got back in my car and sat for a full hour just letting the cold seep in.
01:42My phone buzzed. A text from Dante.
01:44I stared at the words and almost laughed.
01:46I got out of the car, tossed the box of chocolates in the trash and pushed open the front door.
01:51Bella.
01:51Dante shot up from the sofa, a perfect smile on his face.
01:56You're back. How was the road?
01:58He came up to me and gently kissed me on my face. He'd done it for a year.
02:03It always made me feel warm. Now, it just made me sick. I subtly wiped my cheek.
02:10Bella, I need to talk to you about something.
02:13Dante said, sitting next to me, his expression suddenly serious.
02:18Here we go, I thought with a cold smile. But I kept my face a mask of confusion.
02:24Taking my hand and rubbing his thumb over the back of it.
02:28The lawyers are suggesting a temporary divorce. Just on paper.
02:32It's to protect you, keep you from getting getting dragged into this.
02:36A temporary divorce?
02:38I raised an eyebrow, playing dumb.
02:40It's just a formality. As soon as I clean up the family business, we'll get remarried.
02:45Then his face fell into a wounded look.
02:48And I was playing truth or dare. With Marco and Luca yesterday, those bastards.
02:53They lost and dared me to do this.
02:56Said you'd never have the nerve to get divorced again.
02:58Said you didn't have the guts.
02:59He was a damn good actor. If this were the Oscars, he'd take home best actor.
03:04How could they say that?
03:06I said, faking a flash of anger.
03:08I know. And I wasn't going to take that.
03:10Dante said, his eyes shining with anticipation.
03:13I know my wife is the bravest woman there is. You're not afraid of anything. So...
03:18He pulled the papers out from under the coffee table and handed them to me.
03:22Tomorrow, we'll give them the shock of their lives.
03:24Most of his property. His stocks. His real estate. It was all going to me.
03:28I almost laughed out loud.
03:29He was so damn sure of himself. So certain we'd be remarried soon that this was all just for show.
03:33I picked up the pen on the table and signed my name at the bottom of the agreement with a
03:36clean, sharp stroke.
03:38Dante froze for a second. Clearly not expecting me to sign so quickly, so decisively. Done.
03:44You should call them now. I want to hear it when their jaws hit the floor.
03:48I knew you'd understand. You're the best wife in the world.
03:51Then he took his phone and walked into the study.
03:53She signed. Yeah, didn't even hesitate. We'll file tomorrow.
03:56Ha ha ha! I told you Bella was easy! She's still so gullible!
03:59After you're done with Chiara, make it up to Isabella. Don't let her get too bent out of shape.
04:03Of course she's my wife, after all.
04:05A moment later, my own phone lit up with two messages.
04:07The first, from Marco. The second, from Luca.
04:09I used to think our friendship was the most important thing in the world.
04:12I used to think our friendship was everything.
04:14Marco asked me to marry him to secure his inheritance. I did.
04:17Luca asked me to marry him to escape an arranged marriage.
04:20I did that too. And what did I get for it?
04:22I didn't reply. I just flipped my phone face down on the table.
04:28Honey, Marco and Luca, those idiots, they still don't believe we actually signed the papers.
04:32They insist on seeing us, to confirm it in person before they'll drop it. So annoying.
04:37I looked at his handsome, lying face in the mirror, my heart turning to ice.
04:41Fine. Let them see.
04:44I'd love to know what their faces look like when they're finally convinced.
04:50I knew you were the understanding one.
04:52Kissing my forehead with satisfaction.
04:56The meeting was at a private bar they always went to.
04:59All dim lights and moody music.
05:01As I followed Dante into our booth, I saw them immediately.
05:05Marco and Luca were lounging on the sofa.
05:07And between them, holding court like a queen, was Chiara Fontana.
05:12She was wearing a fire-red slip dress.
05:15Her beauty so sharp, it was almost a weapon.
05:17The second she saw Dante, her eyes lit up.
05:29Dante!
05:30I missed you so much.
05:33What took you so long?
05:35Dante's body went stiff for a second.
05:40He glanced at me, but Chiara's embrace was too tight.
05:44And he could only pat her back awkwardly.
05:47All right, all right.
05:48Isabella's still here.
05:49I had to laugh.
05:51The way he said it, you'd think I was the third wheel.
05:54Chiara pulled Dante down onto the sofa,
05:56sweeping in between him and Marco
05:59and immediately launched into stories about their school days.
06:03Marco, do you remember that time you got into a fight
06:06with the basketball captain from the other campus for me?
06:11You needed three stitches above your eye.
06:15And Dante, that Latin exam?
06:19If you hadn't secretly passed me that note,
06:21I would have failed for sure.
06:24Every story she told was a memory I wasn't a part of.
06:28She was proudly showing off how close she was with them,
06:32effortlessly pushing me to the outside.
06:34I picked up my drink and took a quiet sip,
06:36an outsider at my own table.
06:39Back then, we were the only people in the world we could trust.
06:43We were in Duttered Worley Cumber's Mew Mestering the Devith Vine.
06:47She came to Chicago from Italy when she was 15,
06:50all bold and fiery.
06:52She became the center of everyone's world,
06:55including Marco's and Luca's.
06:57They started revolving around her,
06:59forming a new circle.
07:01I was slowly pushed to the sidelines,
07:04only remembered when they needed the Romano family
07:07to solve a problem.
07:11The cracks were always there.
07:13I just chose to ignore them.
07:16Only today was I willing to face the ugly truth.
07:19Oh my God, look at me,
07:21getting so caught up in old times.
07:23I've been ignoring Isabella.
07:24Why don't we play truth or dare?
07:26It's been forever.
07:27A cold laugh echoed in my head.
07:31They really had a thing for this game.
07:34Sure.
07:46Dare!
07:50French kiss the person of the opposite sex to your left for 30 seconds.
07:58Isabella, you don't mind, do you?
08:00In that moment,
08:01every eye was on me,
08:03waiting.
08:04Waiting for me to scream,
08:06or to force a pained smile.
08:08Of course not.
08:11We're divorced, aren't we?
08:13Dante clearly hadn't expected me to be so calm,
08:16to drop the word divorced so easily in front of everyone.
08:19Marco's brow furled.
08:21He looked like he was about to step in and stop this farce.
08:25Marco.
08:28A bet's a bet.
08:29Those are the rules of the game.
08:31Can't break them.
08:33Chiara, now with backup,
08:35looked even more smug.
08:36She turned her head,
08:37looking up at Dante with a look of pure invitation.
08:41He lowered his head and,
08:42right in front of me,
08:44kissed her.
08:5030 seconds.
08:51I watched them,
08:52my mind silently counting down.
08:54One, two.
08:55Time had never felt so long.
08:57When they finished,
08:59Chiara looked triumphant.
09:00She licked her swollen lips
09:02and gave me a defiant smirk.
09:04Since you're divorced,
09:05shouldn't you give me my ring back?
09:07I froze.
09:08My eyes dropping to the diamond on my ring fender.
09:19What do you mean?
09:22Take the look at the inner band.
09:24My name is still engraved on it.
09:27My hands started to tremble.
09:29Slowly,
09:30I twisted off the ring that had once made my heart leap and turned it over.
09:36Among the delicate filigree,
09:38I saw our names Dante and Isabella.
09:39But in a tiny,
09:40almost hidden spot was a line in Italian.
09:42In that moment,
09:43the world started to spin.
09:44I looked at Dante,
09:45desperate for him to explain,
09:46to deny it,
09:47to tell me it was all a mistake.
09:48But he wouldn't meet my eyes.
09:50He just stood there,
09:51silent.
09:51I remembered the day he proposed.
09:53He was on one knee,
09:54looking at me with so much love.
09:55I had this ring custom made just for you.
09:57It's one of a kind in the world,
09:59just like you are in my heart.
10:00I cried,
10:01thinking I was the luckiest woman alive.
10:02It turned out the ring was never meant for me.
10:04It belonged to Chiaca.
10:06It had her name on it.
10:07It was a promise of his love for her and me.
10:09I was just the placeholder.
10:11Right then,
10:11I was so glad I had signed them.
10:13Chiola's eyes lit up.
10:14She snatched the ring,
10:16slipped it onto her own finger,
10:17and admired it.
10:18Thank you, Isabella.
10:19It really does suit me.
10:21Dante stepping forward to grab my hand.
10:25Isabella, let me explain.
10:27Don't bother.
10:28Since we're divorced,
10:29I shouldn't be living here anymore.
10:30My office.
10:319 a.m. tomorrow.
10:33We'll finish the paperwork.
10:34Isabella, wait!
10:35Please!
10:36Nice one, Dante.
10:37She fold even faster than when Luca and I
10:39got her to sign our marriage contracts.
10:41I heard him call my name behind me,
10:43his voice laced with panic.
10:44I didn't stop.
10:45Chiara can't wait much longer.
10:47Let's head out tomorrow.
10:48In the elevator,
10:49I looked at my reflection in the mirror.
10:51No tears,
10:52just a dull ache in my chest.
10:55Once the car was moving,
10:57my phone buzzed.
10:58Isabella,
10:58I will explain about the ring.
10:59Find a place to stay for now,
11:01and I'll come get you in a few days.
11:02Be good.
11:03Don't overthink things.
11:04I looked at the message,
11:06a sneer playing on my lips.
11:07He still thinks I'm coming back.
11:10I deleted the text
11:11and sent one to my father.
11:12Father,
11:13I am divorced.
11:13That arranged marriage you mentioned
11:15is the offer still on the table.
11:16He replied almost instantly.
11:18Of course,
11:18my dear daughter.
11:19I am glad you finally made a wise decision.
11:22A year ago,
11:22after my second divorce,
11:24my father had suggested
11:24an arranged marriage
11:25to a man from a powerful allied family.
11:27But I was lost in my fantasy
11:28of being in love with Dante
11:30and refused.
11:31How stupid I had been.
11:32Half an hour later,
11:33I got a new friend request on my phone.
11:34The message read,
11:36Time to meet your fiancΓ©e.
11:38The next morning at nine,
11:39I arrived at my downtown office
11:41with the Romano family's private lawyer.
11:43Dante was already there,
11:45looking exhausted and anxious.
11:46He clearly hadn't slept.
11:48Isabella,
11:49about the ring,
11:50I have to explain.
11:51The jeweler messed up the engraving.
11:53I was going to get it replaced,
11:54but there wasn't time,
11:55and I didn't want to upset you
11:57over something so small.
11:58I listened silently,
11:59feeling nothing.
12:00I figured I'd quietly get you
12:01a new one after the wedding.
12:02Isabella,
12:02I know this hurt you,
12:03but you have to believe me,
12:04what I feel for you is real.
12:05After this month,
12:06after I handle things with Chiara,
12:07we'll get remarried.
12:08I promise I'll make it up to you
12:09with the most beautiful
12:10wedding ring in the world.
12:11One month.
12:12He meant that after he finished
12:13his romantic duet with Chiaga,
12:14he expected to remarry me
12:15like nothing happened.
12:17I understand.
12:18Let's just get this done.
12:25Dante looked stunned,
12:27probably not expecting me
12:28to be so cooperative.
12:29The whole process
12:30was quicker than I thought.
12:32Signatures,
12:32witnesses,
12:34a legally binding contract.
12:35In less than half an hour,
12:37our marriage was officially over.
12:40The moment we stepped out
12:41of the office,
12:42Dante's phone rang.
12:43He glanced at the caller ID,
12:45and his whole face softened.
12:47He answered,
12:47his voice gentle.
12:49Chiara,
12:49okay,
12:49I'm on my way.
12:50Don't worry,
12:51I'll take care of you.
12:51Wait for me,
12:52I'll be right there.
12:54Isabella,
12:54Chiara isn't feeling well.
12:55I have to go check on her.
12:56Wait here for me,
12:57and I'll be back to take you
12:58wherever you're staying.
12:59Then he rushed off
12:59without a second glance.
13:00I stood in the lobby,
13:02watching his hurried retreat,
13:03a wave of sadness and relief
13:05washing over me.
13:06That was the man
13:07I once loved so deeply.
13:10Not one minute
13:11after our divorce was final,
13:13he was already running
13:14to another woman.
13:15I turned and walked
13:16toward a conference room
13:17at the other end of the hall.
13:19My new fiancΓ© was waiting.
13:21Meanwhile,
13:22after waiting by the building's entrance
13:23for nearly ten minutes
13:24and seeing no sign of Isabella,
13:26Dante decided to go back up
13:28to remind her about the plan.
13:29Just as he reached the entrance,
13:31he slammed right into a man
13:32walking out,
13:33papers scattered
13:34across the marble floor.
13:35Dante's divorce decree
13:36mixed with the other man's documents.
13:38A gust of wind
13:39from the revolving door
13:40flipped open the cover
13:41of one file.
13:42It was a marriage contract.
13:43As Dante bent down
13:44to grab his papers,
13:45he caught a glimpse
13:46of the photo on that contract.
13:47He froze.
13:48He only saw a small part of it,
13:50but that profile,
13:51the side of that face.
13:53Excuse me.
13:53The man said politely,
13:55quickly gathering his files.
13:57Dante looked up,
13:58trying to get a clear look
13:59at the man's face,
14:00but he'd already put on
14:01a pair of sunglasses,
14:02revealing only a sharp jawline
14:04and thin lips.
14:05There was an aristocratic air about him
14:07that felt strangely familiar to Dante.
14:09It's fine.
14:10Dante replied,
14:11but his eyes were glued
14:12to the marriage contract
14:13in the man's hands.
14:14The man finished collecting his things
14:16and headed for the exit.
14:17Dante stood rooted to the spot.
14:19That picture on the marriage contract,
14:21even just a corner of it,
14:23why did it look so familiar?
14:24And he felt like he'd seen
14:26this man somewhere before.
14:27That calm,
14:28imposing aura,
14:29that air of old world power.
14:31An absurd thought
14:31flashed through his mind.
14:33Hey, wait!
14:34He yelled,
14:35chasing after the man
14:36who was about to get into a car.
14:38Just as Dante called out to the man,
14:40his phone rang.
14:41It was Luca.
14:42He hesitated,
14:43then picked up.
14:45Dante, where the hell are you?
14:46We're all waiting.
14:47Luca's voice was urgent.
14:48But when Dante looked up again,
14:51the man was gone.
14:52A black Rolls Royce
14:53peeled around the corner.
14:55Shit!
14:56He muttered.
14:57A second later,
14:58a text from Marco
14:59came through with coordinates.
15:01Get a move on.
15:03We need to be on the private island
15:04in the Bahamas before sunset.
15:06Chiara is waiting.
15:07Dante stared at the screen,
15:09and a memory hit him,
15:11a promise he'd buried for years.
15:13It was Chiara's dream,
15:15back when they graduated high school.
15:17She wanted to take everyone
15:18to that secret private island
15:20and party for three days straight,
15:23watch the most beautiful sunset,
15:25and drink the strongest shit
15:26they could find.
15:28Security on the island was tight.
15:30He was the only one with an invite.
15:32This was something only he could do for her.
15:34He glanced back at the building,
15:36wondering if he should go up
15:37and give Isabella a heads up.
15:39But time was short.
15:41It was just for a month.
15:42When he got back,
15:44everything would go back to normal.
15:47Dante shook his head,
15:49pushing the thought of the mysterious man
15:50out of his mind,
15:51and drove to the private airfield.
15:54When he got there,
15:55everyone was already waiting.
15:56Chiara was in a red dress,
15:57the sea breeze blowing through her long hair.
15:59The diamond necklace around her neck
16:01glittered in the setting sun.
16:02He'd bought her that necklace
16:03for her 17th birthday
16:04with six months of his allowance.
16:06She was still wearing it.
16:07Dante stood at the bottom of the jet stairs
16:09looking at her,
16:10and it was like they were kids again,
16:11ten years ago.
16:12Back then,
16:13Chiara had just moved to Chicago from Italy,
16:15wearing the same kind of red dress,
16:17looking at them with a shy but hopeful expression.
16:20As he was lost in the memory,
16:21a pang of guilt hit him.
16:23He hadn't given Isabella many gifts.
16:25The Romano family had everything.
16:27She didn't need luxury.
16:28He'd only given her a simple diamond bracelet
16:30for her birthday,
16:31but she'd worn it every single day
16:32like a treasure.
16:33He suddenly remembered
16:34signing the divorce papers today.
16:36Isabella's wrist had been bare.
16:38The bracelet was gone.
16:40The realization made his stomach drop.
16:41Dante,
16:42what are you thinking about?
16:44We've been waiting forever.
16:46You're late,
16:47so you have to take three shots as punishment.
16:49Chiara ran over
16:50and hooked her arm through his,
16:52her voice a playful whine.
16:53The warmth of her arm
16:54and the sparkle in her eyes
16:55as she looked up at him
16:56threw him back to their teenage years.
16:58His voice soft,
16:59a fond smile on his face.
17:01All right,
17:01I'll take my punishment.
17:03The guy saw the vibe
17:04and started whooping and hollering,
17:06a knowing glint in their eyes.
17:07Dante still got it bad for Chiara.
17:09By the time they reached the island villa,
17:12the sky was dark.
17:13On the terrace,
17:14a party was in full swing.
17:15A gentle sea breeze blew
17:17as stars glittered overhead
17:18and glasses clinked.
17:20Just as Dante was about
17:21to hand Chiara a glass of champagne,
17:23Marco intercepted,
17:25swapping the flute in her hand
17:26for a glass of juice.
17:27You're sick.
17:28No booze.
17:29Marco said,
17:30his eyes full of concern.
17:31Chiara took the juice.
17:32What are you talking about?
17:33The air froze.
17:34Everyone stared.
17:35Dante's champagne glass hung in midair.
17:37His eyes locked on Chiara.
