00:00On notre 7e anniversaire anniversaire, j'étais straddling mon mafia husband, Raymond,
00:04kissing him deeply.
00:05My fingers fumbled in the pocket of my expensive silk dress,
00:08searching for the pregnancy test I'd hidden there.
00:10I wanted to save the news of my unexpected pregnancy by the end of the evening.
00:13Raymond's right-hand man asked with a suggestive smile in italian.
00:21Raymond's mocking laughter vibrated through my chest,
00:23sending a chill down my spine.
00:25He replied, also in italian.
00:31His hand was still caressing my waist, but his gaze was distant.
00:35This remained among us.
00:37If my wife finds it, I'm dead.
00:42His men chuckled knowingly, raising their glasses and swearing their silence.
00:46The warmth in my blood turned to ice, inch by inch.
00:48The one thing they didn't know was that my grandmother was from Sicily,
00:51so I understood every word.
00:53I forced myself to remain calm,
00:54keeping the perfect smile of a donna fixed in place,
00:57but the hand holding my champagne flute trembled.
00:59Instead of making a scene, I opened my phone,
01:01found the invitation I had received a few days ago
01:03for a private international medical research project,
01:05and tapped accept.
01:07In three days, I would disappear from Raymond's world completely.
01:10Noticing I hadn't touched the blood orange he'd peeled for me,
01:12Raymond gently wiped a smudge of wine from the corner of my mouth with his thumb.
01:15Baby, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?
01:18Looking at the deep affection in his eyes,
01:20all I felt was disgust.
01:21One moment he was discussing my sister's body with his men,
01:24and the next, he was the perfect husband,
01:26deeply in love with his wife.
01:27I wondered how long he could keep up this masterful performance.
01:31It's nothing.
01:32I was just wondering,
01:33what were you all talking about just now?
01:35Raymond casually pinched my cheek,
01:37letting out a doting chuckle.
01:40We were discussing an arms deal.
01:42I know you don't like hearing about that side of the business,
01:45so we used Italian.
01:47He must have been so lost in his debauchery lately
01:49that he'd forgotten my grandmother was Sicilian,
01:51and that I've understood Italian since I was a child.
01:53The smoke and liquor in the air suddenly felt suffocating.
01:55I pushed him away.
01:57Please, carry on.
02:00I'm going to get some fresh air.
02:02Without waiting for Raymond's reply,
02:03I walked straight to the estate's terrace.
02:05As I passed, the other wives cast envious glances my way.
02:09Look at our Donna.
02:10Truly blessed.
02:11It throws such a grand party for her every year.
02:14The queen of the Marino family.
02:17What an enviable position.
02:19Hearing such praise used to make me feel proud and happy.
02:21I believed I had found the best husband in the world.
02:24But now, I only felt there and eat my heart a frozen lake.
02:27No one knew the filthy games Raymond,
02:29the man who supposedly loved me to death,
02:31played behind my back.
02:32Yesterday, I had snuck into his study
02:34to leave the anniversary gift I prepared for him.
02:37It was a restricted area,
02:38a place that held many of the Marino family's secrets,
02:40a place even I rarely had the chance to enter.
02:42But this time,
02:43I smelled my sister Lola's unique perfume there.
02:45That cheap, cloying scent had soaked into the leather sofa,
02:48clung to his suit jacket,
02:49and lingered in the air.
02:50The moment I walked out of that study,
02:52I knew my marriage to Raymond was over.
02:54A sudden vibration from my phone broke my train of thought.
02:58Camilla,
02:59I saw on the system that you accepted the project offer.
03:02You gave up your career for Marino all those years ago.
03:04I'm so happy to see you're coming back.
03:07I'll send someone to pick you up in three days.
03:10You can spend these next few days saying goodbye to your family.
03:13At the word of family,
03:14my knuckles whitened as I gripped my phone.
03:16Ever since my parents were killed in a blood feud five years ago,
03:19Raymond was the only family I had left.
03:21But now that he had betrayed me,
03:22he was no longer my family.
03:24Professor,
03:25that won't be necessary.
03:26Please apply for the highest level of security clearance on my behalf
03:28and erase all public records of me.
03:30My mentor's voice,
03:31full of surprise,
03:32came through the phone.
03:33Why?
03:34Once those records are erased,
03:37Camilla Vedari will have completely vanished from the face of the earth.
03:41Raymond will go insane when he can't find you.
03:43I laughed bitterly.
03:44He won't.
03:46He betrayed me.
03:47My eyes began to sting.
03:49After leaving medical school,
03:50the only medical practice I got was patching Raymond up after his gunfights.
03:53I had lost myself and gained nothing in return.
03:56All right.
03:58I'll arrange the highest level of security clearance for you.
04:03Just get your affairs in order these next three days.
04:06Hearing my mentor agree,
04:07I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
04:09The security protocol meant I no longer had to rack my brain for a way to leave Raymond.
04:13My mentor fell silent.
04:15After a long moment,
04:16he sighed.
04:17Just as the words left my mouth,
04:19a familiar deep voice sounded from behind me,
04:21making me jump.
04:23Darling, who did you say was betrayed?
04:25I turned to meet Raymond's dark green eyes,
04:27which had sharpened with suspicion,
04:28and put on my usual gentle smile.
04:30Oh, I was just chatting with a friend about one of the West Coast families.
04:34The Don betrayed his wife,
04:35and now she's filing for divorce and a share of the assets.
04:38If he loved acting so much,
04:40I would play along.
04:41Raymond's gaze was sharp as he scanned my face,
04:43searching for any telltale microbe expression.
04:45Only after confirming there was nothing amiss
04:47did his tense shoulders slowly relax.
04:49Does he placed a light kiss on my temple?
04:51What an idiot.
04:53To betray your woman is to betray your own throne.
04:56My queen,
04:57that kind of thing will never happen in our family.
05:00But what if it did happen?
05:02For example...
05:03Camilla, there is no what if.
05:06I, Raymond Marino,
05:07swear on the honor and bloodline of the Marino family.
05:10I will never betray you.
05:12Of course.
05:14I was just speaking hypothetically.
05:16Raymond fell silent for a moment,
05:18then gently rubbed his slightly rough jaw against my cheek.
05:20It was strange.
05:22While carrying on an affair with my sister,
05:23he also displayed an intense,
05:25suffocating possessiveness towards me.
05:27Then let my punishment be that I can never find you again.
05:32You know, Camilla, you are my life.
05:34Without you, I'd go to hell anyway.
05:36I didn't respond,
05:37only gently wriggled free from his embrace.
05:39In three days,
05:40I would leave this embrace I once craved.
05:42Raymond,
05:42the punishment you just promised is about to come true.
05:45Voice interrupted.
05:46Don, everything is ready.
05:48Raymond nodded,
05:49a mysterious smile playing on his lips
05:51as he took my hand and led me toward the edge of the terrace.
05:56He suddenly covered my eyes and whispered in my ear.
06:06The moment the countdown finished,
06:09he removed his hands from my eyes.
06:10The sight before me was breathtaking.
06:12He had booked the entire private port,
06:14where hundreds of drones danced in the night sky.
06:17The twinkling drones eventually formed my name,
06:19Camilla.
06:20Raymond embraced me from behind,
06:22his voice as gentle as ever.
06:23My sweetheart,
06:25we've been married for seven years.
06:28But every day with you feels as wonderful as the day we first met.
06:33I looked at the sparkling letters in the night sky,
06:35feeling as if I were in a different lifetime.
06:37Yes, seven years.
06:38From the innocent princess of the Vettorai family
06:41to the Donna of the Marino family.
06:42These seven years have changed me so much.
06:45Enough to turn deep love into betrayal,
06:47and vows into lies.
06:48Raymond turned me to face him,
06:49his dark green eyes so focused,
06:51they seemed to melt me.
06:53Seven years.
06:54And every year I've wanted to give you the best.
06:57He slowly leaned in to kiss me.
06:59If I hadn't heard him and Lola moaning in his office yesterday,
07:01I might have been fooled by this Oscar-worthy performance
07:03until the day I died.
07:05Just as his lips were about to touch mine,
07:07his phone vibrated.
07:08A flicker of annoyance at being interrupted crossed his face,
07:11an expression I knew all too well.
07:12Good.
07:13I wouldn't have to think of a way to dodge him.
07:20Damn it.
07:22I gave explicit orders that no one was to disturb us tonight.
07:25I want to know which idiot dared to ignore them.
07:28But when he saw the caller ID,
07:29his expression changed instantly.
07:31I glanced at the screen and saw,
07:33my little canary.
07:34I knew it was Lola.
07:35Raymond cleared his throat.
07:36I clearly saw a flash of panic and raw desire in his eyes.
07:39Sure enough,
07:40the next second he turned to me.
07:43What is it?
07:44I asked casually,
07:45my nails digging deep into my palms.
07:47The truth was obvious,
07:48but I still hoped that this time,
07:50he would choose me.
07:52There's some urgent family business I need to handle, darling.
07:55I might have to leave for a bit.
07:59Now?
08:01I'm sorry.
08:02I know tonight is important,
08:03but this really can't wait.
08:06He kissed my forehead.
08:09You go back to the room and rest.
08:11I'll be back to join you as soon as I'm done.
08:13I nodded,
08:14acting like an obedient wife.
08:15I understand.
08:16Family business always comes first.
08:18Hearing my response,
08:20Raymond was visibly relieved.
08:21He gave me a quick hug before turning and leaving in a hurry.
08:24I stood on the terrace,
08:26watching his convoy of cars drive out of the estate gates.
08:28Once their taillights have completely disappeared,
08:30I turned and walked toward the parking garage.
08:32Since he had urgent business to attend to,
08:35I decided I should go see for myself just how urgent it was.
08:37I started the engine and quietly followed his convoy.
08:42I tracked Raymond's convoy to a private club on the east side of the city.
08:45It was open only to members of the Marino family.
08:48Thankfully,
08:49the guards at the entrance recognized my car and gave me a respectful nod.
08:52I parked across the street,
08:54observing from my car window.
08:55As soon as the car door opened,
08:57I saw Lola in a tight red dress and 10 centimeter heels,
09:00pouncing into Raymond's arms like a cat in heat.
09:03Darling,
09:04that drone show made me so jealous.
09:06Raymond patted her back,
09:08his tone doting.
09:09Wasn't the firework show for your birthday a few days ago enough?
09:12Such a greedy little canary?
09:13You silly girl.
09:14You'll have everything you want,
09:15but now is not the time.
09:16I promised you,
09:17as long as you behave and don't let Nora find out about our little game,
09:19all the power and status she has will one day be yours too.
09:22Hearing this,
09:23a sharp pain shot through my heart,
09:24as if a thousand daggers were piercing my chest.
09:27I remembered the spectacular fireworks display on the west side of town a few days ago.
09:30That night,
09:32Raymond had said he was going to deal with a traitor to the family and didn't come home all night.
09:35I had been so worried something had happened to him that I couldn't sleep a wink.
09:39As it turned out,
09:40the real threat was my husband sleeping in my sister's bed.
09:42And I,
09:43his wife,
09:44was the real fool kept in the dark.
09:46Lola let out a coquettish whine,
09:47her fingertips tracing deadly circles on his firm chest.
09:50Can't I even be jealous,
09:51my Don?
09:53Ine,
09:53what can I do?
09:54You're my baby after all.
09:56Now I have something special for you tonight.
09:58Lola whispered something in his ear,
10:00then yanked on his tie.
10:01Raymond's eyes instantly darkened with desire.
10:05Then what are you waiting for?
10:06Tell me what it is.
10:08You'll find out when we get upstairs.
10:10You'll have to unwrap your gift personally.
10:12Right there in public,
10:14Raymond swept her up into his arms and strode towards the club.
10:17Lola let out a seductive cry,
10:19the rest of her words swallowed by Raymond's deep kiss.
10:21The elevator doors closed,
10:23taking them straight to the presidential suite on the top floor.
10:25I sat in my car,
10:27watching their figures disappear into the elevator.
10:29Seven years of marriage,
10:30and it all meant nothing to him.
10:32Even though I already knew everything,
10:34seeing it for myself was still as painful as a knife to the heart.
10:36The tears I'd been holding back finally fell,
10:38streaming down my cheeks.
10:40I remembered how,
10:41when we first got married,
10:42Raymond had sworn on the honor of the Marino family
10:44that he would spend our entire anniversary day with me every year.
10:47But now,
10:48a single text from Lola was enough to make him abandon that sacred vow.
10:51I had lost completely.
10:53I took a deep breath,
10:54suppressing the storm of emotions inside me.
10:56Just three more days.
10:57In three days,
10:59I would escape all of this.
11:00It was two in the morning when I returned to the estate.
11:02I went straight to a guest room and locked the door.
11:04At 3.30,
11:05I heard Raymond return.
11:07He was shouting my name in the master bedroom.
11:09Camilla?
11:11Camilla?
11:12Damn it!
11:12Where did she go?
11:14Dawn.
11:15The Donna's car isn't in the garage.
11:17She may have gone out.
11:19Find her.
11:20Tear this city apart if you have to,
11:22but find her.
11:23The footsteps grew closer as he began searching room by room.
11:26When he pushed open the guest room door,
11:28I pretended to have just woken up.
11:29The moment he saw me,
11:31his anger vanished,
11:32replaced by the raw panic of a man who thought he just lost everything.
11:35My God, Nora,
11:36you scared the hell out of me.
11:37Why didn't you let me know you were back?
11:39Do you have any idea I almost had the whole place shot up when I couldn't find you?
11:42He rushed over and pulled me into a tight embrace,
11:45his body trembling slightly.
11:46I couldn't sleep,
11:47so I moved to another room.
11:50What's wrong?
11:51Nothing.
11:52I was just terrified when I couldn't find you.
11:55If you really cared about me,
11:56you wouldn't have touched another woman.
11:58And you certainly wouldn't have touched my sister.
12:02I wasn't feeling well,
12:03so I came back early to rest.
12:05I forgot to tell you.
12:09After being steeped in lies for so long,
12:12I could now lie flawlessly myself.
12:13Raymond,
12:14his face etched with relief,
12:15lay down beside me and locked me in his arms as if I were a priceless treasure.
12:20Don't you ever do that again.
12:22I'll go crazy if I can't find you.
12:25You know I'd do anything for you.
12:26I closed my eyes.
12:28A cold smile on my lips.
12:29The next morning,
12:30I prepared an exquisite gift box.
12:32Inside,
12:33I placed the family signet ring
12:34that symbolized my status as Donna,
12:36along with the divorce papers
12:37I had drafted and signed overnight.
12:41Raymond,
12:41this is my anniversary gift for you.
12:43He took the box,
12:44his eyes filled with surprise.
12:46Should I open it now?
12:47No.
12:48Wait two days.
12:49It'll have more impact then.
12:51He nodded obediently
12:53and carefully placed the box in his safe.
12:56I will definitely love your gift.
12:58In two days,
12:59I would have vanished from his world completely.
13:01By then,
13:02this a gift would tell him the whole truth.
13:04Just as I finished speaking,
13:05the doorbell rang.
13:06The door opened to reveal Lola's face.
13:08Tear streaked and pitiful.
13:10Raymond's face darkened instantly.
13:12He grabbed Lola by the wrist
13:13and dragged her into the back garden.
13:15Are you trying to get yourself killed?
13:16I warned you to never show your face here.
13:19If your sister finds out about anything,
13:21you know the consequences.
13:23I walked to the second floor window,
13:25which gave me a perfect view
13:26of everything in the garden.
13:27Raymond was like an enraged beast,
13:29shoving Lola away forcefully.
13:30Are you insane?
13:32Do you want to bring,
13:33to bring the entire family down?
13:36Terrified by his rage,
13:38Lola trembled,
13:38pulling a hospital report from her bag
13:40with a shaking hand.
13:41Even from that distance,
13:43I could faintly make out her words.
13:46No, I shouldn't have come,
13:48but I'm pregnant.
13:50The doctor said lead last night was too rough.
13:53I'm nine weeks along,
13:54and it's a high-risk pregnancy now.
13:56Those words struck me like a bolt of lightning,
13:58shattering me completely.
14:00My chest felt as if a hole had been gouged out of it,
14:02raw and bleeding.
14:03Lola was also pregnant with a child of the Marino family.
14:06I remembered how,
14:07when we first got married,
14:08we had discussed the issue of continuing the bloodline.
14:11Having a baby too early will affect our relationship.
14:14I want our marriage to be filled with pure love forever.
14:17Back then,
14:18I was so mesmerized by his so,
14:19called a devotion,
14:20that I believed his nonsense
14:21and had been on birth control ever since.
14:23Only now did I understand.
14:25He could so casually father a child with another woman.
14:28From the very beginning,
14:29he never wanted to have a child with me.
14:31Hearing the word,
14:32pregnant,
14:32Raymond froze.
14:33He stared intently at Lola's stomach.
14:35A flash of confusion in his eyes.
14:37He'd always taken precautions.
14:39So how?
14:53Lola's tears turned to smiles
14:54as she stood on her toes to offer him a kiss.
14:56Raymond's eyes instantly darkened,
14:58but he gently sidestepped her kiss.
15:00We're at the Marino estate.
15:01Be more careful.
15:03Besides,
15:03you need to prioritize the child in your womb now.
15:06Don't provoke me.
15:08A roguish smile touched his lips
15:09as he walked back toward the villa.
15:11I quickly retreated to my room
15:12and sat back down at the dining table.
15:14Nine weeks.
15:15That must have been the night
15:16I first discovered he hadn't come home.
15:18I touched my own stomach,
15:20feeling nothing but sorry for this little life.
15:22It's mommy's fault.
15:23I couldn't give you a happy family.
15:25Soon,
15:26Raymond pushed the door open.
15:28Camilla,
15:29I need to go out and handle something.
15:32The Romano family has been making some moves lately,
15:34possibly targeting our business.
15:36I have to go deal with it myself.
15:38You will be good
15:39and wait for me here at the estate
15:40for the next couple of days.
15:41I gave a faint nod of understanding.
15:43Seeing my placid expression,
15:45he was relieved
15:46and kissed my forehead before leaving.
15:48He was still so good at his act,
15:49moving effortlessly between Lola and me.
15:51I watched his disappearing figure,
15:53then glanced at the calendar on the wall.
15:55This might be the last time
15:56we ever see each other in this life.
15:57That afternoon,
15:59my phone vibrated without warning.
16:00On the screen was a picture of an ultrasound report.
16:03It was followed by another picture,
16:04Raymond gently cradling Lola's slightly swollen belly,
16:07bowing his head to kiss it reverently.
16:09The tenderness on his face
16:10was a gentleness I had never seen before.
16:12Even though the sender was an unknown number,
16:14the identity of the sender was obvious.
16:16Perhaps carrying the Marino air
16:17had given my sister the audacity to provoke me,
16:19the Donna.
16:20But what she didn't know
16:21was that none of this had any effect on me anymore.
16:23My heart was already a still,
16:25dead sea.
16:26My heart was ash.
16:27I was determined to disappear.
16:29For the next two days,
16:30as expected,
16:31there was no word from Raymond.
16:33I took advantage of this time
16:34to erase every trace of myself from the estate.
16:36I donated what jewels and antiques I could
16:38and burned the rest of my personal belongings.
16:40I only kept the bare necessities to take with me.
16:43On the day I left,
16:44I woke before dawn
16:44and packed everything into a suitcase.
16:46I waited quietly for the car from the lab
16:48to pick me up.
16:49Just as I was about to contact my mentor
16:51to confirm the pickup time,
16:52my phone received another text from that number.
16:54Sister, the doctor said it's a boy.
16:56I'm carrying the Marino air.
16:58Raymond said he's gonna make things official
16:59for me and our child.
17:01You useless woman who can't even produce an air.
17:03If you know what's good for you,
17:04get out of the Marino estate on your own.
17:05This time, I replied,
17:07Congratulations.
17:08Your wish is about to come true.
17:11Just after I sent the message,
17:13the car arrived.
17:14I dragged my suitcase
17:15and got into the back seat.
17:16As we passed St. Mary's Cathedral,
17:18a sudden downpour began.
17:20Raindrops hammered against the car window,
17:22blurring the world outside.
17:23It was then that I saw a familiar line of black cars
17:25parked in front of the cathedral
17:26through the rain-swept glass.
17:27That was where we held our wedding seven years ago.
17:30In the rain,
17:31Raymond emerged from the church,
17:32holding a black umbrella,
17:33his other hand holding Lola's tightly.
17:35She wore a white maternity dress,
17:37which stood out starkly in the rain.
17:39They had just come out of the church,
17:40as if they had just finished a prayer.
17:42Just as Raymond was helping Lola into the car,
17:44a gust of wind parted the curtain of rain.
17:46He looked up and happened to look in my direction.
17:48Through two layers of rain-blurred glass,
17:51our gazes met again at the very place
17:52that had witnessed our vows.
17:54When he saw it was me,
17:55his eyes filled with shock, confusion, and fear.
17:58His lips moved silently,
17:59as if calling my name.
18:00I looked away,
18:01severing our final, silent connection.
18:04The next second,
18:05my phone began to vibrate wildly.
18:07The screen displayed the name Raymond.
18:09I turned the phone off completely.
18:11Since I had accepted the highest security protocol,
18:13I had to completely cut ties with my past.
18:15The car drove through familiar streets.
18:17Every inch of the city was Merino territory,
18:19and it held all my memories of Raymond.
18:21But now, none of it had anything to do with me.
18:24I removed the SIM card from my phone
18:25and tossed it out the window without a second thought.
18:28Damn it!
18:28At the same moment,
18:29Raymond shoved through the crowd,
18:31ignoring Lola's cry of alarm,
18:32and lunged toward the spot where the car had just been.
18:34But it had already vanished into the traffic,
18:36leaving only the smell of exhaust in its wake.
18:39Lola grabbed his sleeve.
18:40Raymond, what's wrong?
18:41Did something happen?
18:43It's nothing.
18:44Let's go.
18:45He forced himself to calm down and got back into the car.
18:47But the nod of unease in his gut tightened.
18:50What was Camilla doing there?
18:51Wasn't she at the estate?
18:53And the look in her eyes he'd just seen at the intersection,
18:55it terrified him.
18:56After the car reached the safe house,
18:58Raymond had Lola rest upstairs.
18:59My little canary, you stay here tonight.
19:02Tomorrow we'll go for a more detailed checkup.
19:05Okay, but you have to stay with me.
19:08I have some things to deal with.
19:10I'll be back soon.
19:12Just then, his private phone rang.
19:14It was the estate's butler.
19:16Don, something terrible has happened.
19:18The Donna, she's gone.
19:20What do you mean gone?
19:21Explain yourself.
19:22The Donna's room is empty.
19:23Her personal belongings are gone.
19:25Not only that, but the jewelry from her safe,
19:26her important papers,
19:27even the Videtti family heirlooms,
19:29it's all gone.
19:30We've searched the entire villa.
19:31We can't even find a single strand of the Donna's hair.
19:33It's like, it's like she was never here at all.
19:35The phone slipped from Raymond's hand,
19:37clattering to the floor.
19:37A wave of cold, raw fear washed over him.
19:40Hearing the noise, Lola came downstairs.
19:43Raymond, you look terrible.
19:44What happened?
19:45The butler said Camilla is gone.
19:47I have to find her.
19:48Without another word, Raymond bolted out into the rain.
19:51At that moment, a surge of triumph shot through Lola.
19:54It seemed the taunting text she'd sent this morning had worked.
19:57The high and mighty Donna had finally been knocked off her throne.
19:59Watching Raymond rush off,
20:01she suppressed a smile, forcing a look of concern.
20:04Let's go back and wait for news.
20:06But in her heart,
20:07she hoped more than anyone that Raymond would never find me.
20:10Raymond was dialing the number that had been burned into his soul,
20:12over and over again,
20:13but all he heard was the cold, mechanical voice on the other end.
20:16The number you have dialed is not in service,
20:18or is temporarily unavailable.
20:20The downpour soaked his suit, but he didn't care.
20:22After dozens of failed calls,
20:24he finally gave up.
20:25He floored the accelerator,
20:26and the armored Maybach tore through the streets like a bullet.
20:29The butler asked,
20:30Don, why are you back?
20:31Trembling as he approached,
20:33Raymond took the stairs two at a time
20:35and threw open the door to the master bedroom.
20:37Every trace of me had been erased,
20:39as if I had never existed in this world.
20:41The closets and the vanity were empty.
20:43The very air scrubbed clean of my scent.
20:45He rushed to my studies.
20:47The medical textbooks were gone from the shelves.
20:49The papers from the desk, all vanished.
20:53Boss, we've searched the entire villa.
20:55We can confirm that all of Mrs. Rossi's things are gone,
20:58including the Vittori family's signet ring.
21:00Raymond froze, a flicker of disbelief in his eyes.
21:03That was the symbol of her status as a Vittori.
21:06She would never abandon it.
21:07All his men stood before him, trembling.
21:09Don, could there have been a misunderstanding with the Donna?
21:12Perhaps she left in a fit of anger.
21:15Bullshit.
21:16Get everyone moving.
21:17Find her.
21:18Now.
21:18Just two days ago, when he'd left,
21:20my expression had been completely normal.
21:22The thought reminded him of Lola's visit to the estate.
21:25Could something have happened then that he didn't know about?
21:27No.
21:28Impossible.
21:29He had always been cautious when dealing with Lola.
21:31Their entire conversation that day had been in the back garden.
21:34Camilla had been resting upstairs.
21:36He was certain she couldn't possibly have heard anything.
21:39Raymond mobilized the entire Marino family network across North America.
21:42Ports, airports, train stations.
21:44There was no news of me anywhere.
21:46He couldn't even find any activity in my bank accounts or credit cards.
21:49An entire night passed.
21:51And they had nothing.
21:52He couldn't understand how I could have vanished into thin air without a single warning.
21:56Unless a more powerful force was helping Camilla cover her tracks.
21:59Suddenly, a thought struck him.
22:01Could Lola have?
22:02Before he could finish, his consigliere, Giuseppe, strode in from outside.
22:06He held up a clear plastic bag containing a shattered phone.
22:09Don, we found this on 5th Avenue.
22:12It's the Donna's phone.
22:13The tech department says they might be able to recover the data.
22:16Raymond took the bag, his hands shaking.
22:18Camilla would never damage her own things without a reason.
22:21Fix this damn thing now.
22:23I want answers.
22:2520 minutes later, a technician handed the repaired phone to Raymond.
22:28The screen lit up, displaying the last few text messages.
22:31The first was the picture of the ultrasound report Lola had sent me.
22:34The second was the photo of him, gently cradling Lola's slightly swollen belly,
22:38his head bowed to kiss it reverently.
22:40And then there was Lola's arrogant taunt.
22:42Sister, the doctor said it's a boy.
22:44I'm carrying the Marino air.
22:46That arrogant text, I later learned, was all it took.
22:48In an instant, Raymond understood everything.
22:51He knew, it was Lola's taunts that had driven me away.
22:54A volcanic rage erupted from his chest.
22:56My only regret was that I wasn't there to witness what happened next.
23:00Later, through various channels, I pieced together the full picture of that bloody night.
23:04They said Raymond drove like a madman to the secret estate where Lola was staying.
23:07When Lola opened the door and saw him, her face lit up with joy, assuming he had finally
23:11cast me aside for good.
23:13She was lost in a beautiful dream of becoming the next Donna of the Marino family.
23:17Raymond, are you here to take me home?
23:19I'll pack my things and go with you right now.
23:22I knew you couldn't bear to be without me and our baby.
23:26The words had barely left her mouth when a sharp slap cracked across her face, and Raymond
23:31grabbed her.
23:31His face was as dark as the depths of hell, and he radiated pure, murderous rage.
23:37Lola?
23:38Who do you think you are to go telling Camilla about us?
23:41Lola clutched her face, staring at him in disbelief.
23:44She stumbled back a few steps, nearly falling, a cold sweat breaking out on her skin.
23:49She knew how deep Raymond's feelings for me ran.
23:51She had always been content to be the mistress who stayed in the shadows.
23:54But since becoming pregnant, her ambition had swollen.
23:57After all, who wouldn't want to be the official Donna of the family?
24:00She had been far too arrogant, and that's why she had taken the risk of sending me those
24:04taunting texts.
24:05But her plan was already unraveling.
24:07She knew me well enough to know that once I learned the truth, I would leave without a
24:10second thought.
24:11And then, she thought, everything would be hers.
24:13But she never imagined Raymond would see the messages she'd sent.
24:16Of course, she wasn't stupid enough to admit it now.
24:19She just shook her head, feigning composure.
24:22Raymond, what are you talking about?
24:23I don't understand.
24:24I just want to be with you.
24:26I never dreamed of competing with my sister for her position, and I would never send her
24:30a message like that.
24:31There has to be a misunderstanding.
24:33Misunderstood what exactly?
24:35That you sent her the photos?
24:37Or that you arrogantly told her you were carrying the air?
24:40If he hadn't seen those texts, Raymond might have believed her.
24:43But now, those glaring words replayed in his mind, and the murderous glint in his eyes intensified
24:48at her excuses.
24:49He threw the phone at her feet.
24:50The screen showed the very messages Lola had sent.
24:53And seeing the evidence before her, Lola could no longer deny it.
24:56She choked back a sob and grabbed Raymond's arm, trying to explain.
24:59I know I shouldn't have done it, but I couldn't bear the thought of our child growing up with
25:03the stigma of being illegitimate.
25:06Could you really stand while your own blood is pointed at and whispered about?
25:10Illegitimate.
25:11He's not just illegitimate.
25:12He's a bastard.
25:14I warned you, the position of Donna belongs to Camilla and Camilla alone.
25:18You will never be worthy.
25:21I only kept you around as a distraction.
25:24How could you ever compare to Camilla's place in my heart?
25:27If you had just behaved and stayed my little cannery, I would have given you and the child
25:31enough money to live out your lives after he was born.
25:33But since you broke my rules, don't blame me for what happens next.
25:37Raymond pulled a document from his pocket.
25:39It was a DNA test report.
25:41Probability of paternity, 0%.
25:43The moment Lola saw the report, her face went ashen.
25:46She stammered, collapsing to the floor.
25:48How, how is this possible?
25:53Raymond, I can explain.
25:55Explain how you passed off another man's bastard as the heir to the Marino family?
26:00You not only betrayed me, but you also tried to betray my family.
26:04It's not true.
26:05The test must be wrong.
26:07Wrong.
26:08The results were all identical.
26:10And you know what the sickest joke of all is?
26:12He crouched down and tilted her chin up with his fingers.
26:18I lost the only woman who ever mattered in my life.
26:20What did you?
26:22Over a bastard that wasn't even mine.
26:24Lola knew there was no arguing.
26:26Then she snapped.
26:28Raymond, you're a fool!
26:30That's right.
26:30This child has nothing to do with you, but it was enough to make my sister believe it,
26:35wasn't it?
26:35The one who drove her away was never me.
26:37It was you.
26:38No, you'll never get her back, and she will never forgive you.
26:42Hearing the word leave, Raymond's eyes went bloodshot.
26:44You're lying!
26:46Camilla will come back!
26:47All I have to do is apologize, and she'll forgive me!
26:51He turned and yelled toward the door.
26:54Vincenzo!
26:56Get in here!
26:58Get rid of her and the bastard in her belly.
27:02Do it cleanly.
27:04I don't want to hear another word about them.
27:06Ever.
27:08Lola never imagined he could be so utterly merciless.
27:11Her pleas grew more frantic and shrill.
27:13But Raymond didn't spare her a single glance.
27:15After eliminating the woman who betrayed his family, Raymond once again threw all his
27:19energy into finding me.
27:20But whether he used his informants inside the FBI or activated the entire East Coast
27:24Underworld Intelligence Network, he couldn't find a single trace of me.
27:27Even his contacts within the federal government said there were no records of me.
27:31It was as if I had been completely erased from the world.
27:34Impossible.
27:34Raymond slammed his fist on the table, shattering the table.
27:39How can a living person just vanish into thin air?
27:42It was then that Raymond remembered the question I had asked him on our anniversary night.
27:47Then let my punishment be that I can never find you again.
27:50Now, his words had come back to haunt him, a cruel, self-fulfilling prophecy.
27:54He suddenly remembered the exquisite box I had given him before I left, telling him to
27:58open it two days later, on the very day I disappeared.
28:01My disappearance had been so jarring that he had completely forgotten about it until now.
28:05A sliver of hope rose in his despair.
28:07Maybe the box held a clue to my whereabouts.
28:09Maybe I just wanted to teach him a lesson and was waiting somewhere for him to repent.
28:12He carefully retrieved the velvet box, his hands trembling as he slowly opened it.
28:17Inside, a single ring lay on the velvet.
28:19It was the signet ring that symbolized the alliance of our two families, the very symbol
28:23of my status as Donna.
28:24Beside it lay a set of divorce papers.
28:26My signature was on the dotted line.
28:28In that moment, the last shred of his delusion shattered completely.
28:32He finally understood.
28:34This time, I was determined to leave for good.
28:36A tide of regret washed over him, threatening to drown him.
28:39Why had he ever touched that damned little whore, Lola?
28:42He had simply felt that after seven years with only me, his life as a Don had grown stale.
28:46And every time he attended a gathering of the families, he saw the other Dons with their
28:50various canaries, and in a moment of weakness, he had gotten entangled with that little tramp.
28:54But he had never thought of abandoning me.
28:56In his heart, I was his only queen, his only Donna.
28:59He never imagined that a simple craving for a forbidden thrill would destroy seven years
29:03of marriage and cost him the most precious woman in his life.
29:06Don, we found a lead.
29:09Donna's professional credentials were transferred to an international medical research institution.
29:13What institute?
29:14A top teen global medical research lab.
29:17They have numerous classified projects and are protected by several international foundations.
29:21Antonio handed him a report.
29:22Raymond took the report.
29:24His expression growing darker the more he read.
29:26Completely closed off, with zero contact with the outside world.
29:29For Camilla, he would go to the moon if he had to, no matter the cost.
29:33Meanwhile, in the lab, I was swamped.
29:35After marrying Raymond, I hadn't touched any lab equipment for years, and my skills had
29:39grown rusty.
29:41Unwilling to disappoint my mentor, who had such high hopes for me, I spent more than 12
29:44hours a day in the lab.
29:46The high-intensity research work consumed all my time, leaving me no spare energy to think
29:50about that bloody, sinful world of the mafia.
29:52My colleagues were dedicated, all of us striving toward the noble goal of conquering terminal diseases.
29:56There was only academic collaboration between us.
29:59No betrayal or deceit.
30:01Without my noticing, six months flew by.
30:03The first phase of our experiment finally had a breakthrough, and everyone was ecstatic.
30:08Just as we were preparing to celebrate, the voice of the director came over the intercom.
30:12All core researchers, report to the meeting room.
30:14We have an important new donor to introduce.
30:17I walked into the conference room in my white lab coat.
30:19I never expected that the face appearing on the large video screen would be the one I never
30:23wanted to see again.
30:24Raymond Marino.
30:25The mafia don I once loved deeply, but now wish to erase completely from my memory.
30:29The lab's director seated Raymond at the head of the table, introducing the philanthropic
30:33investor to everyone.
30:34Only then did I learn that this mafia don had laundered nearly half of his family's illegal
30:38assets and poured it all into our medical research project.
30:40All for the price of admission into this top-secret program.
30:43I forced myself to remain calm, staring at the screen with a blank expression.
30:47Mr. Marino has brought us the largest single donation in the history of our research program.
30:55Warm applause filled the room.
30:56My colleagues were thrilled by the massive influx of capital.
30:59His funding will accelerate our breakthroughs in cancer treatment.
31:05I hope you'll all join us for a welcome dinner tonight.
31:08I wore a simple white shirt and black trousers, my hair tied back in a casual ponytail.
31:13I was a stark contrast to the other women in their evening gowns.
31:16Raymond stood in the center of the dining hall, dressed in a custom-tailored, deep blue
31:19suit.
31:20He was thinner, his eaves sunken, but those dark green eyes were as sharp as ever.
31:24Throughout the meal, I ignored his existence completely, focusing on discussing research
31:28progress with my colleagues.
31:29But I could feel his intense gaze on me, as persistent and heavy as a shadow.
31:33After dinner, I walked quickly toward the dormitory area, only to be stopped at a corner in the
31:37hallway.
31:38Raymond stood before me, escorted by two men in black suits.
31:41I had known this moment would come.
31:43I turned to face the eyes I had once loved and now loathed, my voice as cold as ice.
31:48What are you doing here?
31:50Raymond's eyes looked like they wanted to devour me, as if he was terrified I would vanish
31:54from his sight again.
31:56Look, do you know what it took to find you?
31:58Six months, I sold half of the family's assets and donated billions just to get through that
32:02door.
32:03Why didn't you tell me when you left?
32:05I went crazy looking for you.
32:07I used the entire power of North America.
32:10I am no longer Camilla Marino, nor your wife.
32:13You have no claim to me.
32:15You have a family to attend to, and a new wife to find.
32:19Seeing my indifferent expression, Raymond's own expression twisted with an emotion he couldn't
32:23control.
32:23His voice was hoarse.
32:25I know I was wrong.
32:26I never should have touched that bitch who betrayed our family.
32:29I took care of Lola and the bastard.
32:31They're gone.
32:32Come home with me, Camilla.
32:34Come back to where you belong.
32:35Hearing him describe the disposal of my sister so casually, a chill shot through me.
32:40This man's cold-bloodedness was beyond my imagination.
32:43Now, I even wonder if I had ever truly known him during our seven years of marriage.
32:47From the moment you betrayed me, we were over.
32:51I don't know how you found me.
32:54But changing my identity and dropping off the face of the earth wasn't clear enough.
32:59I never want to be involved in your world again.
33:02Raymond paused, his voice taking on a humility I had never heard before.
33:06But I know I was wrong just that once.
33:09I swear.
33:14I swear there will never be another woman in my life but you.
33:20Infidelity is never a mistake but a choice and I will never tolerate betrayal, not even once.
33:25In my ass, you have long been dead.
33:27Besides, there is now a blood debt between.
33:29No matter how unbearable Lola is, she is my sister.
33:32You killed her and I will never forgive the shasher.
33:35Raymond's face went white as a sheet, as if my words had struck him in the heart.
33:38Raymond tried to explain.
33:40The baby.
33:41I don't want to hear it.
33:42Just then, a security guard stepped forward.
33:47Sir, this is a core risk area.
33:49This is a research search area.
33:50You must leave immediately.
33:52I breathed a sigh of relief and turned toward my room.
33:55Just as I was about to close the door, a cry, thick with anguish, came from behind me.
34:01Camilla, if I didn't touch her, if I stopped when I should have, would you have stayed?
34:07My steps faltered.
34:08I didn't turn back.
34:10I didn't answer.
34:11I shut the door, sealing myself off from that world of sin.
34:14After all, in this world, there is no what-ifs.
34:17And I had already found my own path.
