00:25:14hey lily

00:25:17Ethan

00:25:18the professor asked me to tutor you

00:25:57No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, he can't see me like this.

00:26:24Oh, my goodness.

00:26:50Ethan, you didn't have to.

00:26:54If you want to turn your grades around, you have to get serious about studying.

00:27:02I...

00:27:03Your house, 7pm tonight.

00:27:06Don't miss it again.

00:27:20See?

00:27:21I told you I'd keep my promises.

00:27:23Eventually.

00:27:24Good.

00:27:25Because we have a lot of work to do today.

00:27:27Wait, you made this?

00:27:30For me?

00:27:31Being smart is about being willing to improve.

00:27:34Look.

00:27:35Class consciousness.

00:27:37Economic situation.

00:27:39Status and political standing.

00:27:47Lily.

00:27:50Are you following?

00:27:51Of course.

00:27:52Of course I am.

00:27:53Yeah.

00:27:54Keep going.

00:27:55I don't think you are.

00:27:58I'll explain it again, but I need you to listen carefully this time, okay?

00:28:04Racial oppression.

00:28:06Women, ethnic minorities, and the walk-in classes.

00:28:10You know what?

00:28:10I actually had something else here that might help you out with, uh...

00:28:14Ow!

00:28:16I'm sorry.

00:28:17Are you okay?

00:28:19This is so embarrassing.

00:28:21Did he just see I was trying to kiss him?

00:28:24Yeah.

00:28:24Yeah, of course.

00:28:25I'm totally fine.

00:28:27Just...

00:28:27You know, studying can be so dangerous sometimes.

00:28:32Just pretend that never happened.

00:28:33There's nothing to be embarrassed about, okay?

00:28:37Apparently...

00:28:39You can't focus around me.

00:28:45My notes.

00:28:46So you can study when I'm not around.

00:28:50This must have taken you days to organize.

00:28:53And it was time well spent.

00:28:56I'll be giving you more notes every day.

00:28:58Speaking of time...

00:29:01There's a campus dance next week.

00:29:04I thought maybe...

00:29:05I don't dance.

00:29:09Why not?

00:29:09I mean...

00:29:10I said I don't dance!

00:29:12Focus on your grace, Lily.

00:29:14Dancing won't fix your D-minus.

00:29:23I don't deserve happiness.

00:29:25And I can't let her get hurt because of me.

00:29:28If I protect her, it has to be from the shadows.

00:29:39What did I do wrong?

00:29:42What did I do wrong?

00:30:02¿V

00:30:03He kept his promise.

00:30:04You're no freak, you're so chic

00:31:19Derek

00:31:29What are you doing here?

00:31:32Transferred

00:31:34I heard plain little Lily turned into a goddess

00:31:38Had to see it for myself

00:31:42Maybe I was wrong about you

00:31:45You've changed

00:31:49I have to go to class

00:31:50Oh, no, no, no, not so fast

00:31:54We have a lot of catching up to do

00:31:59Derek, let go of me

00:32:00Oh, come on

00:32:02Don't be like that

00:32:03I mean, I'm trying to apologize

00:32:06I was stupid and young back then

00:32:09But look at you now

00:32:11You are absolutely stunning

00:32:14I'd be crazy not to want a second chance

00:32:18I said, let go of me

00:32:23For what?

00:32:24You'll scream?

00:32:26Cause a scene?

00:32:28I doubt the campus goddess wants that kind of attention now, does she?

00:32:36It's what's gonna happen

00:32:39You're gonna give me a chance

00:32:41Date me

00:32:43Be seen with me

00:32:46Cause I know something all your little admirers don't

00:32:51I know who you are underneath all that pain

00:32:57You wouldn't

00:34:36Who are you?

00:34:38This doesn't concern you

00:34:39Wrong answer

00:34:42You know, this is what I hate about bullies

00:34:44Oh, you guys always just pick on people who can't fight back

00:34:47But

00:34:49She's kinda got someone with her now

00:34:53Crazy

00:34:53Oh, you have no idea how crazy I can get when someone hurts Lily

00:34:58So

00:34:59You're gonna leave her alone

00:35:00Walk out that door

00:35:03And disappear from her life forever

00:35:10You wanna threaten me?

00:35:11My father is the

00:35:13I don't give a shit who your dad is

00:35:16She's not who you think she is

00:35:18Okay?

00:35:18She's just pretending

00:35:21Don't let her play you

00:35:22You know what, man

00:35:23I know Lily better than anyone

00:35:27And if you even say her name with that dirty little mouth of yours

00:35:31I'm gonna cut your tongue out

00:35:33And serve her with my drink

00:35:34Okay?

00:35:38Okay

00:35:38Okay, Jesus

00:35:39And if you even speak in her direction

00:35:42I'm gonna find you

00:35:44And when I do

00:35:45I promise

00:35:47There won't be any witnesses around

00:35:49Okay?

00:35:57This isn't over

00:36:06Dad

00:36:07He's not gonna bother you anymore

00:36:09I'll make sure of it

00:36:11Lily

00:36:12What does Celine Dion eat when she goes camping?

00:36:19What?

00:36:23Stop

00:36:25Thanks, Alice

00:36:40Morning

00:36:57I warned you

00:36:58We're the ones

00:37:05Dad

00:37:42Ethan Cross

00:37:43The billionaire's son?

00:37:48Ethan Cross

00:37:49The billionaire's son?

00:37:52No, no, no

00:37:53Maybe it's just Alex drinking

00:37:55Hey

00:37:55You guys know Lily Smith, the campus goddess?

00:37:58I got to hurtin' who she really is

00:38:00Dude

00:38:01Aren't you that creep Ethan's been warning us about?

00:38:03Yeah

00:38:04We heard you've been harassing girls

00:38:06That's sick, man

00:38:07What?

00:38:08No, I'm trying to tell you

00:38:09This is the pervert guy

00:38:58You're amazing

00:39:00Yeah

00:39:08There's that food drive at school this weekend

00:39:10Come with me

00:39:11I think it'll be good to do something good for the community

00:39:16Yeah

00:39:18That sounds perfect

00:39:28Good morning

00:39:31Come on, let's go

00:39:36Okay, uh, Emma and Ethan

00:39:38Start organizing the clothes

00:39:40And then Alex and Lily

00:39:41I need you to start putting sandwiches together

00:39:43For us to pass out

00:39:44Okay?

00:39:44Thank you

00:39:46Finally

00:39:46Finally, some quality time with Ethan

00:39:50Come on, Lily

00:39:50Lunches won't pack themselves

00:39:53Right

00:39:54Sorry

00:39:57I can't get this right

00:39:59Could you help me?

00:40:00Fine

00:40:01I'll show you how to do this

00:40:02Thank you

00:40:05Is everything okay?

00:40:08Yeah

00:40:09Yeah, no

00:40:09It's nothing

00:40:10Well, you keep looking over there

00:40:12I mean, do you want to be over there

00:40:14With him

00:40:14Instead of over here with me?

00:40:18I need air

00:40:19Will you walk with me?

00:40:21Yeah, of course

00:40:22Let's go

00:40:31It's gonna be okay

00:40:34Will it?

00:40:36Of course

00:40:38Oh, I think

00:40:39Oh

00:40:40I think I'm actually stuck

00:40:41Okay, yeah

00:40:41Hold still, hold still, hold still

00:40:43Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

00:40:44Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop

00:40:45I love moments like this

00:40:47Between us

00:40:48No distractions

00:40:48Just us

00:40:51You being, you know

00:40:53You have no idea

00:40:54How much I want, you know

00:40:56Uh, Alex

00:41:00Um, you have some peanut butter

00:41:02On your face

00:41:05Oh

00:41:07Thanks

00:41:11So

00:41:12Should we head back?

00:41:14Yeah

00:41:15Yeah

00:41:16Yeah

00:41:16Yeah, yeah

00:41:16Let's go

00:41:18I hate to be the one

00:41:20To tell you this

00:41:21But

00:41:22You deserve to know

00:41:23Something about Lily

00:41:23She was just there

00:41:25With Alex in the hallway

00:41:26And they were like

00:41:26Really close

00:41:28Like really, really

00:41:29Intimate

00:41:31Ooh

00:41:31Look at this

00:41:33Ooh

00:41:35Uh

00:41:36This would look

00:41:37So good on you

00:41:47No

00:41:58Don't ever touch me again

00:41:59You think I was just trying to put on the necklace?

00:42:01I have feelings for Lily, okay?

00:42:03Stop playing your games

00:42:04This ends now

00:42:05What?

00:42:06You have feelings for her?

00:42:08But she's nothing but

00:42:09Finish that sentence

00:42:11You'll see what happens

00:42:13I'm sorry

00:42:14I

00:42:16I took it too far

00:42:17If you ever threaten Lily again

00:42:19Or if you even look at her wrong

00:42:20You'll see just how ruthless I can be

00:42:30How could I be so stupid?

00:42:33Of course he wouldn't choose someone like me

00:42:37Someone who lives behind a mask

00:42:41Lily

00:42:42No, Ethan

00:42:50Hey

00:42:52Whatever you think you saw back there

00:42:53I

00:42:54I saw you

00:42:57I didn't want her to put that necklace on me, okay?

00:43:00I pushed her away immediately

00:43:03Never

00:43:06Are you okay?

00:43:08Yeah

00:43:09I'm fine

00:43:11Why should I believe you?

00:43:13You've been avoiding me for weeks

00:43:15You won't even sit near me anymore

00:43:16And now you just show up like this?

00:43:22It's because every moment I spend close to you

00:43:25It makes it harder to stay away

00:43:32Why?

00:43:34What are you afraid of?

00:43:40It's just

00:43:42It's just I

00:43:43Lily, where are you?

00:43:47It's just I

00:43:49Because I want you so bad

00:44:00Tell me to stop and I will

00:44:10It's okay

00:44:15Lily, where are you?

00:44:23Thank God you're okay

00:44:28What the hell is he doing here?

00:44:30Trouble always seems to find you, huh?

00:44:33Alex, he's just trying to help

00:44:34Don't care

00:44:36If he hurts you, he has to deal with me

00:44:39Come on

00:44:39Let's go

00:44:46Alex, can we talk?

00:44:48I think we've done enough talking today

00:45:01I think you should probably think about having some other ones

00:45:04Oh, look who's back

00:45:06How's the food drive?

00:45:09What's all this?

00:45:11Oh, just some party planning, darling

00:45:13Nothing for you to worry about

00:45:15What party?

00:45:16Ethan, don't worry about it

00:45:18It's business matters

00:45:19Your fiancé and I will take care of it

00:45:21First, she's not my fiancé

00:45:25Second, Victoria, get out of here

00:45:26Hey

00:45:27Ethan, why?

00:45:28Everybody calm down

00:45:30Why don't you get some rest?

00:45:31You look like you could use it

00:45:33Don't drag me into your party

00:45:43Ethan, by then you will know you belong to me

00:45:47Not to your little girlfriend

00:46:02A party at Ethan's house?

00:46:06Maybe he wants to talk about what happened

00:46:24Ethan taught me how to swim when we were 12

00:46:27We've swam together every summer since

00:46:29Sweet, isn't it?

00:46:31Wow, they've got so much history together

00:46:33Yeah, they're perfect for each other

00:46:44Lily?

00:46:46Ethan, honey!

00:46:51Dad, what is going on outside?

00:46:54Oh, that

00:46:57Oh, I just thought it was time your classmates met your fiancé

00:47:05Knock it off now

00:47:06Oh, no, no, no, don't worry

00:47:08I invited your little girlfriend, too

00:47:10As we've heard so many rumors about her from school

00:47:14Son

00:47:16Ethan

00:47:20Any girl you get too close to

00:47:24Her family might find themselves facing some, um

00:47:28Unfortunate financial circumstances

00:47:32You understand

00:47:41Ethan used to tie my laps

00:47:42She said I was always the fastest one

00:47:44But, of course, he's the best at everything

00:47:48Come on, everyone

00:47:49Let's swim

00:47:50Hey!

00:47:52I can't swim

00:47:54The courtroom will ruin my makeup

00:47:58Where's Ethan?

00:48:00Lily!

00:48:02Aren't you swimming?

00:48:04Uh

00:48:04No, I'll just watch

00:48:06Oh, what a shame

00:48:08Honey, you must be roasting in this heat

00:48:19Oops, I'm sorry

00:48:20I'm such a fuss

00:48:22Are you okay?

00:48:23I can't

00:48:23I can't swim

00:48:24Either

00:48:35No, I'm sorry

00:48:36Let me

00:48:36No

00:48:38No

00:48:39No

00:48:40No

00:48:41No

00:48:41Kesley

00:48:46No

00:48:47No

00:48:49No

00:48:50No

00:48:51Did you see how bad she looks without makeup?

00:48:55This is going straight on Insta.

00:48:59Party's over.

00:49:01Everyone out.

00:49:03Everyone saw me.

00:49:05Everyone knows.

00:49:07Hey.

00:49:08I don't care what this is, okay?

00:49:11You're safe now.

00:49:18Lily!

00:49:22Send that to me.

00:49:26Fake goddess exposed?

00:49:29No wonder she always wears so much makeup.

00:49:33Catfish level expert.

00:49:40It's over.

00:49:43Everything I built...

00:49:48It's gone.

00:49:56Did he just cover me because he was ashamed of me?

00:50:00Ah!

00:50:08As Ethan's fiancé, I want to say he's always been kind to those who need help.

00:50:14Some people mistake kindness for something more.

00:50:18Hashtag blessed.

00:50:19Hashtag engagement.

00:50:34There's the fake goddess.

00:50:35Did you see how horrible she looks without makeup?

00:50:38Back off.

00:50:41Leave her alone.

00:50:42Why are you defending the catfish?

00:50:49Lily!

00:50:53Hey, everyone.

00:50:54I know there have been a lot of rumors going around.

00:51:07I just wanted to be beautiful.

00:51:09I just...

00:51:10I wanted to be accepted.

00:51:11I knew what I did.

00:51:12I knew there was a lot of rumors coming out next to me.

00:51:31I...

00:51:31I don't know...

00:51:32You know we're not...

00:51:33You know what I need to be excited.

00:51:35You know I'm not going to leave the catfish.

00:51:40I didn't know what I did.

00:51:49I guess he left me too.

00:51:53Just like everyone else.

00:51:57Lily, you have to eat something.

00:52:00It's been three days.

00:52:02Just leave me alone.

00:52:04Lily, talk to me.

00:52:12No, my makeup.

00:52:19I'm so dumb.

00:52:22We're worried about you.

00:52:24I don't deserve you.

00:52:26I don't deserve you.

00:52:39Ethan, where are you?

00:52:46Sir, the cyber attacks against Miss Lily have worsened.

00:52:53I thought keeping my distance would keep her safe.

00:52:57But it failed.

00:53:02So I'll protect her myself at any cost.

00:53:06Sir, Alex has been ringing the bell trying to speak with you, but your father will not let him in.

00:53:13Alex?

00:53:15Seven fucking days, Ethan.

00:53:18She hasn't eaten, hasn't slept, hasn't seen anyone.

00:53:21While you're in here brooding, she's destroying herself.

00:53:25This is all my fault.

00:53:26Yeah, it is.

00:53:29Everything that she's going through, the bullying, the public humiliation, the social media attacks, it all traces back to you.

00:53:35Alex, shut up.

00:53:36I'm talking.

00:53:38You had your chance to speak when she needed you and you chose silence.

00:53:43You want to know why I'm here?

00:53:45Because I'm the fucking idiot that cares more about her happiness than my own.

00:53:49And right now, right now man, she's dying without you.

00:53:54So get your fucking ass up and go find her.

00:54:05Lily!

00:54:07I know you can hear me!

00:54:13Oh my god.

00:54:15Ethan?

00:54:17I'm not leaving until you come talk to me!

00:54:21Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:54:24What am I going to do?

00:54:26Go away!

00:54:28I don't want to see you!

00:54:30I don't want to see you!

00:54:44Look, it's sick!

00:54:46Come inside!

00:54:47No!

00:54:48No, not until you let me explain everything!

00:54:52Ethan, please!

00:54:53Just come in!

00:54:54Ethan, I never wanted you to suffer like this, Lily.

00:54:59I never wanted you to feel the way my friend Ben felt.

00:55:02What's happening to him?

00:55:05He suffered from appearance anxiety just like you do.

00:55:09His girlfriend?

00:55:12She was cruel.

00:55:14She dunked him, said he was worthless, and said that he would never render up to me.

00:55:22The night of my birthday, Ben called me.

00:55:28He was desperate.

00:55:31He needed somebody to talk to.

00:55:34But I was out dancing, celebrating, having fun.

00:55:38And I never saw his call until...

00:55:42It was too late.

00:55:46Ben took his own life back.

00:55:49I was out dancing.

00:55:52And I have been so afraid ever since.

00:55:56That I would fail someone I care about.

00:56:00That my selfishness, my neglect, that it would cost another life.

00:56:08I can't lose you the way I lost Ben, Lily.

00:56:13And if hiding from you will save your life, then that is what I will do.

00:56:18Seeing you now.

00:56:20Seeing what my distance has done to you.

00:56:24Face yourself, Lily.

00:56:26Don't let the fear win.

00:56:28Because if I lose you too, I won't survive it.

00:56:34So you've been pushing me away.

00:56:38To protect me.

00:56:40But it didn't work.

00:56:42I failed you.

00:56:44Running from the pain won't honor Ben's memory.

00:56:47He trusted you.

00:56:49Pushing that down will only make the guilt worse.

00:56:53I've been living in fear.

00:56:56Just like Ben was.

00:56:58That fear is killing me.

00:57:03And I don't know if...

00:57:07Stop running.

00:57:10Stop hiding.

00:57:15Face yourself.

00:57:17So that I never have to fear losing you too.

00:57:24I love you even more like this.

00:57:27Nothing to hide.

00:57:30I love you even more like this.

00:57:51You're beautiful.

00:57:54You're beautiful.

00:57:55You're really...

00:57:56I love this version of you.

00:58:06That's thewon's mouth.

00:58:08And is there a power in this?

00:58:17You're so happy.

00:58:18You're really definitely not right with these.

00:58:18I love you.

00:58:19You're really beautiful.

00:58:20And that you're really nice.

00:58:20I love you.

00:58:26Oh, youMS.

00:58:27Eested on the pegar.

00:58:35Are you going to the dance with me?

00:58:41Yeah.

00:58:43I would love to.

00:58:58Ethan, go take a hot shower. I'll get some towels for you.

00:59:09These were my husbands. They should fit.

00:59:14Thank you. That's very kind of you.

00:59:18You love her?

00:59:21More than anything.

00:59:34Here.

00:59:43This feels kind of strange, doesn't it?

00:59:47Yeah. Totally.

00:59:52You know, I actually never really learned how to dance properly.

00:59:55Honestly, that spinning in the rain was the most romantic thing I've ever done.

01:00:01Maybe you could teach me?

01:00:05It'd be my honor.

01:00:07I mean, I think you're pretty good at dancing, but I could teach you a thing or two.

01:00:11I love dancing with you.

01:00:21Let's follow my lead, okay?

01:00:23Okay.

01:00:26All right.

01:00:27Okay.

01:00:29Kind of like this?

01:00:30Kind of.

01:00:31We'll work on it.

01:00:33Okay, ready?

01:00:34One, two, three.

01:00:36One, two.

01:00:38I think I haven't got anything yet.

01:00:39You're getting there.

01:00:40You're getting there.

01:00:43Okay.

01:00:44One, two, three.

01:00:45Yeah.

01:00:45One, two, three.

01:00:50I'm so sorry.

01:00:52I'm terrible at this.

01:00:53It's okay.

01:00:54It's okay.

01:00:54We'll work on it.

01:00:56Okay.

01:01:05What are you most afraid of?

01:01:11To be seen

01:01:14Like

01:01:16Really seen

01:01:22I see you

01:01:26And I love what I see

01:01:30That's why I'm not afraid anymore

01:01:54I love what I see

01:02:03Hey, hey

01:02:04What's wrong?

01:02:08Show them the real you

01:02:11What do you mean?

01:02:15Well, how about you make a video?

01:02:17No makeup

01:02:18No filters

01:02:20Just you and your truth

01:02:22I can't do that

01:02:23What if they hate me more?

01:02:26What if they don't?

01:02:28What if your honesty inspires them?

01:02:31Okay

01:02:34Will you stay with me while I do it?

01:02:39Always

01:02:52Hi everyone

01:02:54My name is Lily Smith

01:02:55And I have something to say

01:03:03I'm not perfect

01:03:07And I never claimed to be

01:03:10I've been made fun of for the way that I looked my entire life

01:03:15So makeup became my armor

01:03:18The way that I felt worthy of love

01:03:22But I refuse to let that define me anymore

01:03:28This is me

01:03:31The real me

01:03:38What did I just do?

01:03:39What did I do?

01:03:40You changed everything

01:03:55You changed everything

01:03:59I believe in you

01:04:03Wait, Ethan

01:04:05Look at this

01:04:11They love it

01:04:12No

01:04:14They love you

01:04:32I've never seen a girl braver than her

01:04:34She's beautiful without makeup too

01:04:36Isn't she stunning?

01:04:38I guess that's what confidence looks like

01:04:49This isn't over

01:04:51Yeah

01:04:52What Emma said

01:04:53A bunch of losers

01:04:56Right

01:04:56It's kind of pathetic

01:04:58This isn't over

01:04:59Really?

01:05:00Still

01:05:06Okay

01:05:08And that is my hack for a perfect winglet winner

01:05:12And remember

01:05:13Despite everything

01:05:14You're good enough with or without makeup

01:05:18Thank you guys

01:05:18I'll see you next time

01:05:24I never knew people would respond like this

01:05:29Maybe

01:05:31Maybe being genuine was my power this whole time

01:05:34So what'd you think?

01:05:36It was amazing

01:05:37I mean really

01:05:39Your inspiration is more powerful than any makeup tutorial

01:05:45You know, I think I want to open a cosmetic store

01:05:48I want to teach young people how to be confident in their own skin

01:05:55Let's make it happen, okay?

01:05:57I can't wait

01:06:03And look

01:06:04These three cosmetic companies already want to work with me

01:06:07And this beauty brand wants me to be their authenticity ambassador

01:06:15Your dream

01:06:17Becoming a reality

01:06:18Faster than we could ever imagine

01:06:28I'm gonna head home

01:06:30See you at the dance tomorrow night?

01:06:32Yes

01:06:43Hey

01:06:44Ethan

01:06:46Son, we need to talk

01:06:49There's nothing to talk about

01:06:50Congratulations darling

01:06:51Our engagement is tomorrow

01:06:54Yeah, that's not gonna happen

01:06:55No, it is going to happen

01:06:57Ethan

01:06:58We have already made a generous donation to your girlfriend's family

01:07:01And her mother has already accepted the one million dollars in cash

01:07:04To stay out of our family affairs

01:07:06This engagement party

01:07:08It coincides with your little dance

01:07:10So I'm sorry

01:07:11You're not gonna be able to attend with Lily

01:07:17You bought out her mother?

01:07:18I protected this family

01:07:21From a gold digger

01:07:25Now

01:07:27Any more rebellion from you

01:07:29And her family will lose everything

01:07:32Homes

01:07:32Jobs

01:07:33Everything

01:07:34They will be destroyed

01:07:35Financially

01:07:38Oh darling

01:07:39Don't look so sad

01:07:41We are perfect together

01:07:43Unlike some people

01:07:45I don't have to hide behind makeup to be beautiful

01:07:48Alright, that's enough

01:07:49The announcement goes out of an hour

01:07:53Dress appropriately

01:07:54For your engagement party

01:07:56Period

01:08:10Forgive me Lily

01:08:36What?

01:08:38No, no, no, no, no, no

01:08:40This can't be happening

01:08:44Lily

01:08:45Lily

01:08:45I need to tell you something

01:08:50What?

01:08:51Mom, what is this?

01:08:52Money?

01:08:53Where did you get this?

01:08:54What's going on?

01:08:56A woman

01:08:58Appeared this morning

01:08:59With the money

01:09:00And

01:09:02Said you had to break up with Ethan

01:09:06We needed the money

01:09:07So I took it

01:09:09I'm so sorry

01:09:10I was too nervous to tell you before now

01:09:13Mom, we don't need money

01:09:14I can make my own money

01:09:16I need to find Ethan

01:09:18I'm so sorry

01:09:22I'm sorry

01:09:28God

01:09:42Lily, what's wrong?

01:09:44Alex, Ethan disappeared

01:09:46That bastard

01:09:47I'm gonna kill him

01:09:48I need to get to his house

01:09:50No, security will throw you out

01:09:52Alex, you've always been my safe space

01:09:55You've always accepted me exactly as I am

01:09:58Yes

01:09:59I do

01:10:00With Ethan

01:10:02I don't feel just loved

01:10:05He pushes me to grow

01:10:07I feel braver

01:10:09I need someone like that

01:10:10You need the kind of love that's gonna change you

01:10:14I'm coming to get you

01:10:36Good luck, Angel

01:10:39Thanks, Alex

01:10:54Thank you all for celebrating our engagement

01:10:58Thank you

01:11:01Lily, why did you come here?

01:11:03Get her out of my house

01:11:03Now

01:11:05I won't let anyone come between us

01:11:08Security

01:11:09Get her out of my house

01:11:11Now

01:11:15Touch her

01:11:16And you'll answer to me

01:11:18All right

01:11:28I choose Lily

01:11:30Over all of this

01:11:33What are you doing?

01:11:38You are throwing away everything

01:11:43Your inheritance

01:11:44Your future

01:11:46Everything

01:11:47I'd rather be poor with Lily

01:11:49Than rich without her

01:11:50And if anyone wants to hurt her

01:11:53They're gonna have to go through me first

01:11:55Ethan, think about what you're doing

01:11:57Our family business agreement

01:11:58Oh, you mean this?

01:12:00Business agreement?

01:12:12You can't buy our love

01:12:14Not with this

01:12:15Not with anything

01:12:16Oh, no

01:12:18No one has ever dared challenge me like this

01:12:21He doesn't know who you're dealing with

01:12:22Oh, I know exactly

01:12:24Who I'm dealing with

01:12:27And I'm not afraid anymore

01:12:31Let's get out of here

01:12:34Ethan

01:12:36You're nothing without the family name

01:12:39You're nothing

01:12:42Wait, the dance

01:12:44It already started

01:12:45We'll be late

01:12:48How are we gonna get there?

01:12:52Sir

01:12:54Your father asked me to deliver a message

01:12:58This is your birthday gift

01:13:01It's yours

01:13:01No matter what

01:13:04Is this

01:13:06His blessing?

01:13:08Without losing face

01:13:10That's his way

01:13:12Try not to drive

01:13:13Too fast

01:13:18Put on your dress

01:13:28I told you not to stop without me

01:13:30You're still weird

01:13:41She looks like a princess

01:13:44They're absolutely perfect together

01:13:49You look really pretty

01:13:51You too

01:13:55You ready?

01:13:57I've never been more ready for anything

01:14:02May I have this dance

01:14:03Goddess?

01:14:05Really?

01:14:08I'm not afraid anymore

01:14:13I'm coming back to our place

01:14:17Where I search for your face

01:14:20And I can feel how much it hurts

01:14:27Everything reminds me of you

01:14:30I see you in every space

01:14:33But it's like I'm lost in love

01:14:46You know what's funny?

01:14:50I used to think wearing makeup

01:14:52Was what made me beautiful

01:14:55But being seen truly by you

01:14:59Now that's true beauty

01:15:03You were always beautiful

01:15:04Lily

01:15:16Hey, get a room, you two

01:15:24Lily Smith

01:15:26Will you be my girlfriend?

01:15:32Yes

01:15:44And remember

01:15:46Makeup is art

01:15:47Not armor

01:15:49So wear it because you love it

01:15:50Not because you need it

01:15:53Thank you guys

01:15:54The grand opening of Smith Cosmetics

01:15:57Will be happening in two weeks

01:15:58I will see you there

01:16:16How's my CEO doing?

01:16:19Good

01:16:21I'm living the dream

01:16:24Our dream

01:16:25I love you
