00:30He threw the prenup in my face.
00:34Don't forget your place.
00:35You sold yourself, remember?
00:37He looked me over like I was nothing.
00:39I clenched my fists.
00:41My nails cut into my palms.
00:43But I couldn't argue.
00:45Then came the day.
00:46I started bleeding.
00:48The doctor said it was a threatened miscarriage.
00:51I stood at the counter, counting every dollar.
00:54I was 14 bucks short.
00:56Just 14.
00:58I called Graham.
00:59His voice came through, sharp and bored.
01:02Didn't I already pay you off before the wedding?
01:09What?
01:10You insist on being a gold digger?
01:14That same day, he dropped 14 million on a necklace for Vera Freda, his latest date.
01:21Ma'am, do you want the medication or not?
01:23I held back my tears and forced a smile.
01:26No meds.
01:27Please schedule the abortion.
01:30A marriage bought for 2 million had come to an end over 14 bucks.
01:33I got a message right after I said it.
01:37Bank deposit.
01:3814 dollars.
01:3914 dollars.
01:40I let out a weak laugh.
01:4114 dollars covered the prescription, not the abortion.
01:45I knew Graham would not send another dime.
01:47So I texted some old friends, asking for 317 dollars.
01:51It would be just enough.
01:53Enough for the cheapest procedure.
01:55Oh wow.
01:56Sienna Blake is broke now?
01:58If you hadn't shaken Graham down, maybe you wouldn't be begging for pocket change.
02:02More came in.
02:03One after another.
02:04Mean.
02:05But predictable.
02:06I had heard it all before.
02:08Gold digger.
02:09Leech.
02:10Paid wife.
02:11I was used to it.
02:13Used to Graham.
02:14Treating our marriage like a deal.
02:16At first, I thought I could cover my own bills.
02:18Maybe even save up 2 million and pay him back one day dot.
02:22But Graham shut every door dot.
02:24I bought the rest of your life.
02:26Your time is mine.
02:27Your freedom is mine.
02:28So he cut off every way I could make money.
02:30No company would hire me.
02:32He wanted me to beg.
02:33That was how he punished me.
02:36Because he thought I had turned our relationship into a cash deal.
02:40I tried to explain.
02:41More than once.
02:43But he never let me finish.
02:45My phone buzzed again.
02:47Someone sent me 371 dollars.
02:50The note said,
02:51Here.
02:51Consider it a tip.
02:53Dragging you was fun.
02:54I wiped my face.
02:56Then I looked at the nurse.
02:58Please schedule the procedure.
03:00But I still did not have enough for anesthesia.
03:02So I lay there, awake, flat, on a cold table.
03:08I felt everything.
03:09The metal going in.
03:11The scraping.
03:12And the pain tore through me.
03:14I thought of Graham.
03:15Of the way he used to hold me.
03:18His hand on my head.
03:19His voice soft.
03:21But when I got pregnant, this is what he said instead.
03:25When we get married, we'll have a baby.
03:27I'll love you both with my life.
03:30But when I got pregnant, this is what he said instead.
03:33Go ahead.
03:34How much are you asking for this time?
03:35No more, Graham.
03:38I don't want your money.
03:39I don't want your love.
03:40And I don't want you.
03:42I didn't know when the procedure ended.
03:44I just lay there.
03:46Hollow and bleeding.
03:47I stared out the clinic window.
03:49The sky was dark.
03:51My tears kept falling.
03:52Then a firework shot up.
03:54Thought the whole city lit up.
03:56The sky was bright as daylight.
03:59A few nurses nearby started whispering.
04:02Did you hear?
04:04Mr. Blake set this up for the woman he loves.
04:06God, she's lucky.
04:08Loves?
04:09Please.
04:10He has a wife.
04:11But I heard the wife's just a gold digger.
04:13Now, she ranks below the house staff.
04:16On the way home, I could barely walk.
04:20Dot an empty cab slowed beside me.
04:23Where to?
04:24I forced a weak smile.
04:27I'm fine.
04:28I wasn't fine.
04:30I just couldn't afford the ride.
04:33That was unreal.
04:34If a man did that for me, I could die happy.
04:36In your dreams.
04:38Not everyone gets a guy like Graham Blake.
04:40People were still talking about the fireworks from tonight.
04:43I had my fireworks.
04:46Santa.
04:47Let me love you for life.
04:50Marry me.
04:51Behind him, fireworks lit up the sky.
04:54Brighter than anything I saw tonight.
04:57But that same night, I just pulled my father off a rooftop.
05:01The men he owed were inside our house.
05:03Threatening my mother.
05:05Threatening my seven-year-old sister.
05:07I had no choice thought.
05:09So, instead of saying yes, I looked at him and said,
05:13Graham.
05:15Can you lend me two million dollars?
05:17His face changed on the spot.
05:19The warmth drained from his eyes.
05:22He stood up slowly.
05:24People said you were with me for money.
05:27I didn't believe them.
05:29Sienna Hale, you really played this well.
05:33You waited until I proposed.
05:35Until everyone was watching.
05:37Then you showed me who you are.
05:38He lifted one hand.
05:41The fireworks stopped.
05:43Then he pulled out a check.
05:45Signed it.
05:46And threw it in my face.
05:49Well, you're cheaper than I thought.
05:52No matter how hard I tried to explain, I was still the gold digger.
05:57I became a joke in his whole social circle.
06:00I kept waiting for him to calm down, to finally hear me out.
06:03But I couldn't bear it when I saw another girl on his arm.
06:07At that time, he just looked at me and asked,
06:10What exactly gives you the right to be mad?
06:12My heart broke right there.
06:14And still, I couldn't fight back.
06:17And now, I had walked six hours to get home.
06:20I was barely holding myself together.
06:23I just wanted my bed.
06:25Then, a sweet little voice floated over from the couch.
06:28You're back.
06:30Where are my churros?
06:32I froze.
06:33I looked at the girl in Graham's arms.
06:36Young.
06:37Sweet.
06:39Pretty.
06:42What churros?
06:44Don't play dumb.
06:45I texted you.
06:46I told you to pick some up for Vera.
06:48I spend all this money on you.
06:50You can't do one simple thing.
06:52I bit my lip and forced the words out.
06:55If she wants, she can buy it herself.
06:57That set him off.
06:59What now?
07:00You need money again?
07:02He pulled cash from his wallet.
07:05Then tossed it at me.
07:07I just gave you 14 bucks.
07:09That's enough for churvos, isn't it?
07:11Go buy it.
07:12Don't let me see you without churros.
07:16This wasn't new.
07:18Graham had talked to me like this for months.
07:20I thought I'd gone numb.
07:22I hadn't.
07:24My chest hurt worse than my body did.
07:27It was midnight.
07:28Where was I supposed to find churros at this hour?
07:31What's the holder?
07:33Need more money?
07:34He pulled out some cash.
07:36Dropped it on the floor dot.
07:38Then he stopped.
07:39Is that enough for you?
07:42Then he stopped.
07:43Looked me over.
07:45Wait.
07:46You asked me for money earlier for medicine.
07:48Where is it?
07:50Sienna, you really have no shame now.
07:53You lied over 14 bucks.
07:54Before I could answer,
07:56Grandma waved into the guards and shoved me outside.
07:59I heard Vera laughing.
08:00I heard them making out.
08:03I held onto the wall and slowly sank onto the front steps.
08:06The wind cut through my collar.
08:09Right into my skin.
08:11Then,
08:12I heard the door open.
08:16Are you insane?
08:17You couldn't find somewhere warm?
08:19What is this, some pity stunt?
08:21He sounded mad.
08:23Then, strong arms wrapped around me.
08:26Warm, solid.
08:27It had to be a dream.
08:29Graham hated me.
08:31He wouldn't worry about me.
08:33I don't know how long I was out.
08:34When I opened my eyes,
08:37Graham was there.
08:38His face was dark.
08:40Oh good, you're awake.
08:41His voice was cold again.
08:43So you finally dropped the act?
08:44All I did was ask you to buy churros.
08:48What now?
08:49As he knew you thought it was worms.
08:51You want people to hear you almost froze to death outside the Blake house while pregnant?
08:56He looked at me with disgust.
08:58I opened my mouth.
09:00I wanted to fight back, but my throat was raw.
09:04Every word burned.
09:07Where's the family doctor?
09:08What's taking so long?
09:10Don't let her die in my house!
09:12Tears slid down my face.
09:14What do you want from me, Graham?
09:16You're the one who wanted me gone.
09:18But why do you sound scared now?
09:21I shut my eyes.
09:22Graham,
09:24let's get divorced.
09:25His head snapped toward me.
09:28Then he laughed.
09:29Divorce?
09:30Fine.
09:32He took one step closer.
09:33Pay back the two million, then I'll sign.
09:35Then he paused,
09:37like something clicked.
09:39Oh, I get it now.
09:40You think carrying my kid means you get one more payday?
09:43That was it.
09:45I couldn't hold it in anymore.
09:48Our baby is already...
09:50I never got to finish.
09:52The sound of gagging came from outside the room.
09:55Vera,
09:56at the same moment,
09:57the family doctor rushed in.
10:00Mr. Blake,
10:01Miss Freda is most likely pregnant.
10:03Something inside me
10:05collapsed on the spot.
10:07After Vera found out she was pregnant,
10:10she moved in.
10:11A few days later,
10:13we were at dinner.
10:14Vera suddenly sat down her spoon.
10:16I want potato leek soup.
10:18There was already creamy mushroom soup on the table.
10:21Ram looked at me.
10:22You heard her.
10:23I kept eating.
10:24I didn't even look up.
10:25That made him smile.
10:26Oh, I get it.
10:28You want money?
10:29He leaned back in his chair.
10:31Fine.
10:31I'll pay.
10:32Deal.
10:33I finished my last bite.
10:35Got up.
10:36Went straight to the kitchen.
10:37I heard Graham sneer behind me.
10:40She will do anything for cash.
10:42She'd sell her soul for it.
10:43For once,
10:44he was right.
10:45I needed that money
10:46to pay back the two million.
10:48Then I could leave.
10:49So I did whatever they wanted.
10:51After that,
10:52I became Vera's personal maid.
10:54Pour her tea.
10:56Thirty grand.
10:57Rub her feet.
10:58Fifty.
10:59And when Graham was in the mood,
11:01he made me stay in the room
11:03while they slept together.
11:04Eighty grand a night.
11:06At first,
11:07it made me sick.
11:09Then I got used to it.
11:10I could stand there
11:12with a blank face,
11:13wait for them to finish.
11:15Then hand Graham another condom,
11:18like I was refilling napkins.
11:20Then one night,
11:21he snapped.
11:23He slapped the box from my hand,
11:25grabbed my chin hard.
11:27Sienna,
11:27what the hell is wrong with you?
11:28I looked him right in the eye
11:30and didn't say a thing.
11:32In just two weeks,
11:33I had saved $1,600,000.
11:37I only needed $400,000 more
11:40and I could pay Graham back,
11:42divorce him,
11:43and walk away clean.
11:44That same week,
11:45the first snow of the year hit.
11:47Vera begged Graham to take her
11:49to Mount Rainier
11:51to see the snow.
11:52Of course,
11:53Graham couldn't say no to her.
11:55He took her up there
11:55for a grand date.
11:57They just had to bring me along.
11:59The whole day was a nightmare.
12:01Not only did Vera boss me around,
12:03Graham also asked me
12:04to take off my jacket
12:05and put it over Vera's belly
12:07to keep the baby warm.
12:09Finally,
12:10I made it to nightfall.
12:12They went to a Japanese
12:13hot spring house
12:14right at the foot of the mountain.
12:17While having dinner,
12:18Vera suddenly touched her neck
12:20and gasped,
12:21Oh my God.
12:23My necklace.
12:24I think I left it
12:25at the viewing platform.
12:27Then she turned to me
12:28and smiled.
12:30Sienna,
12:31can you be a doll
12:31and go get it for me?
12:32Before I could answer,
12:34the new housekeeper spoke up.
12:36Mr. Blake,
12:37the roads are icy.
12:39Mrs. Blake is pregnant too.
12:41Maybe she can go tomorrow.
12:43Graham didn't even look at her.
12:45He just kept staring at me.
12:4740 grand.
12:48Take it or leave it.
12:51Deal.
12:52Exactly what he expected.
12:54I loved money too much to say no.
12:57At least,
12:57that's what he believed.
12:59The road up the mountain
13:00was a mess.
13:02The driver could only
13:03take me halfway up.
13:04We took the cable car
13:06to the platform during the day,
13:07but it was already closed now.
13:09The driver glanced at me,
13:11nervous.
13:13Mrs. Blake,
13:14please hurry.
13:15If Miss Freddie gets upset,
13:17Mr. Blake docks my pay.
13:19I nodded,
13:20then started up the trail.
13:22The path was slick with ice.
13:25I watched every step.
13:27Two hours later,
13:28I made it to the platform,
13:30and there it was.
13:32Where is necklace?
13:33I let out a dry laugh.
13:35Then I turned
13:36and started back down.
13:38That's when I slipped.
13:39One bad step,
13:40then nothing under my feet.
13:43I went over the edge.
13:46Branches tore at my skin.
13:48Rocks slammed into my body.
13:50I rolled until I caught
13:51a dead tree with both hands.
13:54Barely.
13:55I screamed for help.
13:57All I heard back was wind.
13:59I grabbed my phone,
14:01tried to call 911.
14:02Then my screen lit up,
14:04battery low,
14:05powering off in 30 seconds.
14:07Right then,
14:08a transfer alert came through.
14:10$40,000.
14:12A message followed.
14:14Got the necklace?
14:15Then get your ass back here.
14:17A tear slid down my face.
14:20Before the phone died,
14:21I sent him everything.
14:23The full two million.
14:24And my surgery record.
14:30Graham Blake,
14:31I don't owe you a damn thing now.
14:33The next morning,
14:35Graham's drivers shook him awake.
14:37Panic all over his face.
14:39Mr. Blake,
14:39something's wrong.
14:41Mrs. Blake never came down the mountain.
14:45Ramses straight up,
14:47snatched his phone off the nightstand.
14:49He saw it.
14:51The transfer.
14:52The photo.
14:53That medical report.
14:55His whole face went rigid.
14:57Then a news alert hit his screen.
14:59This morning,
15:00authorities found
15:01found the frozen body of an unidentified woman on Mount Rainier.
15:07Graham Blake stared at his phone like it had turned into a foreign language.
15:11He near every word on the screen.
15:13But together,
15:15they made no sense.
15:18Find her.
15:19His voice cracked like a whip.
15:22Whatever it costs,
15:23find her.
15:24He refused to believe
15:25the body in that alert
15:26was Sienna.
15:27She left money too much.
15:29She would never just die.
15:31Grandma looked down at his phone again.
15:33The transfer record.
15:34The surgery report.
15:36Every line cut deeper.
15:38Sienna had picked the cheapest clinic.
15:40The most basic procedure.
15:43No extra meds.
15:44No pain pump.
15:46Nothing.
15:47And she used to be terrified of pain.
15:50Back when we were dating,
15:51one tiny paper cut would bring her to me,
15:54nagging about how much it hurt.
15:57So how had she gone through the abortion alone?
16:00And then he realized
16:02Sienna hadn't said
16:03that hurts
16:05in a very long time.
16:08Was it their wedding night?
16:09The night he took her heart
16:11over and over.
16:13The night she cried
16:15and begged him to stop.
16:16And he grabbed her jaw
16:18and said,
16:19I paid two million for this.
16:20You can handle a little more.
16:23Was it that night?
16:25Or the first time
16:26he brought another woman home?
16:27Or later?
16:29The nights he forced her
16:31to bow her head.
16:32The nights he threw her out
16:34in the cold.
16:35The nights he made her
16:36serve his mistress.
16:37Then his eyes landed
16:39on the surgery date.
16:41That day,
16:42Sienna asked him for $14.
16:45Said she needed medicine.
16:47And what had he done?
16:48He mocked her,
16:50hung up,
16:51and bought a $14 million necklace
16:53for Vera.
16:55He laid up the whole city
16:56with fireworks.
16:57Made sure everyone saw it.
17:00Made sure Sienna saw it.
17:01He wanted to punish her.
17:03He wanted her to know
17:05he could spend money
17:06on any woman he wanted.
17:08Just not on Sienna.
17:10He loved watching her
17:12come to him for cash.
17:13Loved watching her
17:15lower herself.
17:16But now,
17:17now that Sienna might be dead,
17:19none of that mattered.
17:21Only one thought
17:22stuck in his head.
17:23Please let her be alive.
17:26She wanted money.
17:27He had money.
17:29He would give her all of it.
17:31Please,
17:32don't leave him.
17:34A body on the mountain?
17:36You think it could be Sienna?
17:39Vera's voice
17:40sliced through the room.
17:42Graham looked up.
17:43Her eyes were bright,
17:44like she was trying
17:45not to smile.
17:46The roads were icy.
17:48She went up there for money.
17:49She tilted her head.
17:51That's not my fault.
17:52You said you hated her.
17:53So if she's dead,
17:55isn't that a good thing?
17:56Every word
17:57hit like a blade.
17:58Graham shot to his feet.
18:00Before Vera could react,
18:02his hand was around her throat.
18:04His eyes went red.
18:06She is not dead!
18:07Vera clawed at his wrist.
18:09Panic flooded her face.
18:11Graham tightened his grip.
18:13His voice rose.
18:14If it weren't for you,
18:16none of this would have happened!
18:17Vera couldn't breathe.
18:19A few seconds
18:20stretched forever.
18:22Finally,
18:22he let go.
18:23She collapsed to the floor
18:25and realized
18:27she had gotten
18:27too comfortable,
18:29too spoiled.
18:29She forgot
18:31who Graham Blake
18:32really was.
18:33He was the man
18:34people feared
18:35in business.
18:36The one they called
18:37a killer
18:37in a suit.
18:39So even through
18:40her tears,
18:41she still asked,
18:43Why are you doing
18:44this to me?
18:45I thought you loved me.
18:47Graham didn't even blink.
18:49Love?
18:50He looked down at her
18:51like she was dirt.
18:52You think you deserve
18:54my love?
19:00Vera was never special.
19:02To Graham,
19:03she was just another woman
19:05who threw herself at him.
19:08The only reason
19:09Vera lasted longer
19:11than the others
19:11was simple.
19:13She looked the most
19:14like Sienna.
19:15They had the same eyes.
19:17Graham found that out
19:19by accident.
19:20One night,
19:22drunk out of his mind,
19:23he called Vera
19:24by Sienna's name.
19:25When he woke up,
19:27he hated Sienna
19:28even more.
19:30At least,
19:31that's what he told himself.
19:33Vera's voice cracked.
19:34But I'm pregnant
19:35with your baby!
19:38She wasn't about
19:39to let go.
19:41Graham wasn't
19:41the first sugar daddy
19:42she'd chased,
19:43but he was the best one.
19:45Young,
19:46hot,
19:47loaded.
19:48The only problem
19:49was Sienna.
19:50That wife title
19:51was still hers.
19:53And as long as
19:54Sienna stayed alive,
19:55Vera could never
19:56take her place.
19:57So yes,
19:59part of her had hoped
20:00Sienna would disappear.
20:02That was why
20:03she forgot the necklace
20:04at the platform.
20:05She knew Graham
20:06would make Sienna
20:07go get it.
20:08And when she saw
20:09the news that morning,
20:11she had almost laughed.
20:12She had already started
20:14picturing the wedding.
20:15Then Graham snapped.
20:16He wasn't the man
20:18she thought she knew.
20:19Still,
20:19she had one card left.
20:21The baby.
20:23That was supposed
20:24to be her safety net.
20:25What she didn't know
20:26was that Graham
20:28had known the truth
20:29all along.
20:30I never told you
20:31what I knew
20:32because you weren't important.
20:33His voice was calm now.
20:35You really thought
20:36I believed that kid was mine?
20:37Vera went still.
20:39After Sienna got pregnant,
20:41I got a varexomy.
20:42He took one slow step closer.
20:44So no,
20:46the baby in your stomach
20:48cannot be mine.
20:50His eyes locked on hers.
20:52Did you really think
20:53I didn't know
20:54about your college boyfriend?
20:55All the color
20:56drained from Vera's face.
20:58That boyfriend
20:59was real.
21:01They had been together
21:02a long time.
21:03He was the only one
21:05she had ever
21:06actually loved.
21:07Too bad he was broke.
21:09Graham didn't say anything
21:11because she meant
21:12so little to him
21:13that he didn't even
21:15care enough
21:15to call her out.
21:17He just didn't care.
21:19Vera used to think
21:20she was different.
21:21Now she knew better.
21:22She was just another toy.
21:24One he could use up
21:25and toss aside.
21:27No.
21:28Worse than that.
21:29Now all the rage
21:30he used to aim at Sienna
21:32had nowhere to go.
21:34So it landed on Vera.
21:36She pushed herself
21:38up from the floor
21:39and wiped the tears
21:41from her face.
21:43Didn't care
21:44that her mascara
21:45was wrecked.
21:46For the first time
21:47she dropped the act.
21:50Then she looked
21:51Graham dead in the eye.
21:53You want someone
21:53to blame?
21:54Look in the mirror!
21:55His face changed
21:57instantly.
21:59What did you just say?
22:01Vera let out
22:02a bitter laugh.
22:03Was I wrong?
22:07If you hadn't
22:08pushed Sienna this far
22:09she never would have
22:10gone up that mountain
22:11in the middle
22:11of a snowstorm.
22:13You made her stand there
22:14and listen while
22:15we slept together!
22:16She stepped closer.
22:17You drove her away
22:18and you're the one
22:19to blame.
22:20By then
22:20the room fell frozen.
22:22With every word
22:23Vera said
22:24Graham's face
22:25got colder.
22:26Finally
22:27he snapped.
22:28His voice came out
22:29low and deadly.
22:31Do you want to die?
22:32Right then
22:33someone came running
22:34into the room.
22:35Mr. Blake!
22:36He bent over
22:38gasping.
22:39We got a call
22:39from the police.
22:40The body they found
22:43it's not your wife.
22:46Hope showed
22:47on his face.
22:48She's alive.
22:49The assistant froze
22:50for half a beat.
22:51In theory yes
22:52we've got over
22:53a hundred people
22:54out there
22:54plus a full search
22:56and rescue team.
22:57He swallowed.
22:58But so far
22:59there's still no sign
23:00of Mrs. Blake.
23:02For now
23:03no news
23:04was good news.
23:05That thin thread
23:06of hope
23:07was the only thing
23:08holding Graham together.
23:09Find her
23:10no matter
23:11what it took.
23:12From that day on
23:14Graham barely slept.
23:16He watched
23:16every update himself.
23:18Tracked
23:19every search route.
23:20Every delay.
23:21Every lead.
23:23More than once
23:24he went up
23:25the mountain
23:25in person.
23:26Mount Rainier
23:28in winter
23:28was brutal.
23:30Nothing
23:30but white snow.
23:31He knew the us.
23:33A person alone
23:34in that kind of cold
23:35didn't last long.
23:37And Sienna
23:38had just had surgery.
23:39She was weak.
23:41One of the search
23:42team members
23:43led Graham
23:43to the place
23:44where she most likely
23:46failed.
23:46He pointed
23:47at a patch
23:48of frozen blood
23:49on the rocks.
23:50She probably
23:51hit here first.
23:52The branches
23:52and rocks
23:53slowed the fall.
23:54That may have
23:54bought her some time.
23:55Then he handed
23:56Graham an evidence
23:57back.
23:58Inside
23:59were three things.
24:00A necklace,
24:01a phone,
24:02and a ring.
24:03Graham stared
24:04at the ring.
24:05The one he had
24:06custom made.
24:07When he proposed,
24:09Sienna wore it
24:10every day.
24:11He used to think
24:12she kept it on
24:13because it was expensive.
24:14Because she liked
24:15what it was worth.
24:16But later,
24:17he learned the truth.
24:20Even when she had
24:21no money for medicine,
24:22she still kept
24:23the ring.
24:24And now she had
24:25left it there.
24:26Like a goodbye.
24:28Graham's knees
24:29almost gave out.
24:30Someone grabbed
24:31him fast.
24:34Mr. Blake,
24:35watch it.
24:35That's a straight drop.
24:36That cliff
24:37was exactly why
24:38the search team
24:39kept saying
24:39her odds were slim.
24:41But Graham
24:42refused to stop.
24:43He paid more.
24:45Then more again.
24:46He gave
24:47only one order.
24:48Keep searching.
24:49Do not stop
24:51until you find her.
24:52When Graham
24:53finally went
24:54back home,
24:55it had been
24:56two weeks.
24:57He hadn't really
24:58been living there.
24:59He slept at the office.
25:01If he slept at all,
25:02his assistant
25:03told him to go home.
25:05But Graham knew
25:06he was staying away
25:07because he was scared.
25:09That house
25:09was full of Sienna.
25:11Every trace of her
25:12hurt like hell.
25:14That was when
25:15he started
25:16noticing things.
25:17Sienna's clothes
25:18were old.
25:19Years old.
25:21Not like Vera
25:22who had counters
25:24full of makeup
25:24and shopping bags
25:26everywhere.
25:27Sienna had a few
25:28drugstore
25:29skincare bottles.
25:31That was it.
25:32How could she
25:33have ever been
25:33the gold digger
25:34he called her?
25:35Then he remembered
25:36what she told him.
25:38That night,
25:38her family
25:39had lost everything.
25:40That was why
25:41she asked him
25:42for the two million.
25:43Something clicked.
25:44Graham grabbed
25:45his keys
25:45and headed straight
25:47for the Hale home.
25:49The old Hale
25:50family house
25:50was long gone.
25:52Sold off.
25:53It took Graham
25:54some time
25:55to check down
25:56where her parents
25:56live now.
25:57It was a worn down
25:58apartment complex.
26:00The kind of place
26:01he would never
26:02have stepped into
26:03before.
26:03When Sienna's parents
26:04opened the door
26:05and saw him,
26:06they both froze.
26:08Back when Graham
26:08and Sienna were dating,
26:10they had met him
26:10a few times.
26:11But after the wedding,
26:12they never saw him again.
26:14They kept asking Sienna
26:15to bring him by
26:16for dinner.
26:16They wanted to
26:17thank him in person
26:18for helping their
26:19family in a crisis
26:21every time
26:22Sienna covered for him.
26:23He's busy.
26:24Maybe next time.
26:26A mother always knows.
26:27Mrs. Hale had seen
26:28the cracks,
26:29but Sienna never told
26:31him the bad parts,
26:32only the good.
26:33So,
26:33they were shocked.
26:35What brings you here,
26:36Graham?
26:36His forehead
26:37was damp with sweat.
26:41Has Sienna
26:42come back here?
26:43Mrs. Hale's face
26:44changed at once.
26:45What happened to her?
26:47That was it.
26:48The last piece of hope
26:49in him broke.
26:50Sienna had not come home.
26:52Then where the hell
26:53was she?
26:55It's nothing.
26:56We had a fight.
26:57I thought she might be here.
26:59Before leaving,
27:00he looked around
27:00the apartment.
27:01It was clean,
27:02carefully kept,
27:03but everything in it
27:05was old.
27:06Old couch,
27:07old cabinets,
27:08old table.
27:09Sienna had told the truth.
27:10Her family really had
27:12lost everything.
27:13Graham reached into
27:14his pocket,
27:15pulled out a bank card,
27:16but she pushed it back.
27:18Then she went inside
27:19and got a deposit book.
27:21She handed it to him.
27:23It's not two million yet,
27:24but take it for now.
27:26We'll save the rest.
27:28Graham,
27:30Sienna really loves you.
27:32If you two had a fight,
27:34please don't blame her.
27:36And don't be hard on her.
27:39Please,
27:41just let her come home.
27:43Graham didn't even know
27:44how he got out
27:45of that building.
27:46It was as if he had
27:47lost his soul.
27:49Half a month had passed
27:50since I woke up.
27:53Lying in that freezing
27:54mountain ravine,
27:55I was sure I was going to die.
27:58Luckily,
27:59two strangers found me.
28:00They were out
28:01went to hiking,
28:02just there for the view.
28:03They heard me
28:04before they saw me.
28:05That same night,
28:06they got me to a hospital.
28:07They even paid
28:08my medical bill up front.
28:10I had no money,
28:11no phone,
28:12and I couldn't let
28:13my parents find out.
28:14So I asked the hospital
28:16to hold a gold necklace
28:17I had worn since birth.
28:19My mom gave it to me
28:20when I was a baby.
28:21A good luck charm.
28:23That was enough
28:24to cover what I owed.
28:25Over those two weeks,
28:26I thought about a lot.
28:28If I'm honest,
28:29I used to blame Graham.
28:30But once you almost die,
28:32something shifts Dodd.
28:34It wasn't that I forgave him.
28:35It was that none of it
28:36mattered anymore.
28:37After I got out of the hospital,
28:39I went home.
28:40My mom had more gray hair
28:42than the last time I saw her.
28:43The second she saw me,
28:45she burst into tears.
28:46But she didn't ask any questions.
28:48She just grabbed my hands
28:49and kept saying the same thing.
28:53You're home.
28:54That's all that matters.
28:56You're home.
28:57I fell into her arms and broke.
28:59Every bit of pain I had buried
29:01came out at once.
29:02I cried so hard I couldn't breathe.
29:05Dotso and I saw Graham again.
29:06I was calmer than I expected.
29:09Sienna.
29:09When I looked up,
29:11he was standing there like a man
29:12who hadn't slept in days.
29:16You're okay.
29:18He looked wrecked.
29:21Do you know how much
29:22I missed you?
29:23Hollowed out.
29:24Like he was the one
29:25who had almost died.
29:27So I didn't die.
29:28That must be a letdown.
29:31Don't say that.
29:32As long as I'm here,
29:34nothing will happen to you.
29:36I had just gotten out
29:37of the hospital.
29:39I didn't have the strength
29:40for one more
29:41uncomfortable conversation.
29:43I got right to it.
29:45Graham, I paid you back.
29:47Every dollar.
29:49As for interest,
29:50I think everything you did to me
29:51more than covers that.
29:53So sign the divorce papers.
29:55But his face changed fast.
29:58No.
29:59I'm not divorcing you.
30:00I know I was wrong.
30:02I know that now.
30:04My money is yours.
30:05All of it, okay?
30:06And Vera is gone.
30:07I took care of her for you.
30:09There will never be
30:10another woman again.
30:12Sianna,
30:13can you give me
30:14one more chance?
30:15The pain on his face
30:16was real.
30:17This was nothing
30:18like the Graham Black
30:19I knew.
30:19The arrogant man
30:20who always looked down at me.
30:22I had heard
30:23what happened to Vera.
30:24None of it surprised me.
30:26Graham was ruthless.
30:27He always had been.
30:28But what happened to Vera
30:29didn't make me feel better.
30:30He was wrong.
30:31The person who hurt me
30:32the most was never Vera.
30:34It was him.
30:35Graham,
30:36if it wasn't Vera,
30:37it would have been
30:37someone else.
30:39Alice,
30:40Chloe,
30:41Madison,
30:42whoever.
30:43His face only got worse.
30:46You know me better than anyone.
30:48When I make up my mind,
30:49nobody can change it.
30:51I took a breath.
30:53So let's end this.
30:55Let's at least leave each other
30:56with that little bit of dignity.
30:58He opened his mouth.
31:00Nothing came out.
31:01Then tears started falling.
31:03I turned around
31:04and walked away.
31:05I never looked back.
31:09A month passed.
31:10Graham still refused to sign.
31:12So I hired a lawyer.
31:14I was done waiting.
31:15The hearing was set.
31:16Then,
31:17the night before the hearing,
31:19Graham killed himself.
31:21He jumped from a cliff
31:22on Mount Rainier.
31:24By the time they found him,
31:25he was already gone.
31:27Lawyers from Blake Holdings
31:28called me the next day.
31:30Dot Graham had left a will.
31:32Everything he owned
31:32was left to me.
31:33I donated most of it.
31:35The rest,
31:36I kept.
31:37Just enough to live
31:38the rest of my life in peace.
31:39The truth is,
31:41he called me the night he died.
31:43I answered.
31:44All I could hear was wind.
31:46For a few seconds,
31:47he said nothing.
31:49Then he asked one question.
31:51Sienna,
31:53if there's a next life,
31:55would you give me one more chance?
31:57And I heard myself say,
31:59no.
32:02I'll see you tomorrow night.
32:02I'm ready.
32:05I'll see you tomorrow tomorrow.
