Short filmTranscript
00:00What's your relationship with my fiancé?
00:06That old man must be Amelia's sugar daddy.
00:09Ethan, didn't the boss of the Recy family help you take over the East District?
00:14You know Mr. Recy, and he values you so much, you have to save me!
00:18Ethan froze.
00:20The Recy family had many branches and held power across the country.
00:23Ethan used to be the mere leader of a gang of small-time thugs.
00:27But three years ago, he suddenly received help from the Don of the Recy family
00:31and took control of both the East and West Districts.
00:35The Rolling Stones quickly developed into a small mafia family in the nation.
00:40I was born with a heart condition.
00:42She secretly poured a second high-dose energy drink.
00:45Just to show respect to Charlotte on her big day.
00:48In a panic, I tore open my only emergency medication,
00:51but the water I used to take it had been swapped with more of the same high-caffeine energy drink.
00:56As soon as I swallowed it, a violent wave of nausea hit me.
01:00My vision blurred.
01:02Energy drinks are full of vitamins and caffeine.
01:05They help with hangovers and keep you alert and healthy.
01:08Ethan, your fiancé's acting is incredible.
01:11I've been a doctor for years, and I've never seen anyone react like this
01:15to a little champagne and a harmless energy drink.
01:18Honey, please, call an ambulance.
01:21I can't take it anymore.
01:23For a moment, Ethan's expression wavered.
01:25He looked almost worried and even took half a step forward.
01:29Come on, stop pretending.
01:31Nobody dies from a bit of champagne and an energy drink.
01:34Yeah, you're just jealous Charlotte got promoted and didn't want to toast to her.
01:37Ethan's face turned cold again.
01:39Charlotte's a doctor.
01:40You'll be fine with her here, right?
01:53What are you doing?
01:54We just called you out a bit, and now you're trying to post on Instagram to get people to attack
01:58us?
02:01Ethan's face was dark, and he looked at me with a cold glare.
02:06Though his brow tritched and his hand instinctively moved toward his pocket again,
02:11the pain made my vision go black at the edges.
02:14I didn't do anything, Ethan.
02:16I was born with a heart condition.
02:18I think I'm having an attack.
02:23Please, call an ambulance.
02:25Ethan finally noticed something was wrong.
02:29But before he could decide, Charlotte pulled him away.
02:36Ethan, your fiancé's so inconsiderate.
02:39Everyone came here to celebrate my promotion,
02:41but she's jealous and trying to ruin the party they threw for me.
02:44I knew Amelia never liked me.
02:46I invited her because I wanted to fix things between us.
02:49But she didn't appreciate it.
02:53She's showing everyone how nasty she can be.
02:56Ethan, if I'd known this would happen, I would have solely invited you.
03:02You really know how to act, don't you?
03:04Maybe try using that talent for acting instead of scheming and stirring up trouble.
03:08As a doctor, I can tell when someone's faking it.
03:15But even though it was supposed to be my date with Ethan,
03:19Ethan and Charlotte had grown up together.
03:21They had their own tight circle.
03:24Charlotte was unhappy about it.
03:27She often showed up uninvited whenever Ethan and I went out.
03:32Ethan!
03:35Charlotte's like my sister, don't overthink it.
03:38Amelia, I'm only tagging along to help our friends decide if you're right for Ethan.
03:43Ethan, he's already spent enough time on you.
03:46You can't be this greedy.
03:47Charlotte's words made me feel like if I loved Ethan, I would have to accept all his friends.
03:53Even Charlotte herself.
03:55But even though it was supposed to be my date with Ethan, we ended up doing the things Charlotte liked.
04:01I pulled myself back to the present.
04:03Memories of those suffocating dates flashing through my mind.
04:11I get it, Amelia.
04:12You're so used to being in the spotlight that you have to steal the show, don't you?
04:17Today, the focus is on me.
04:19And since no one is cheering for you like your fans would,
04:22you're putting on an act just to get attention.
04:25Remember when we were kids?
04:26You said you'd kill anyone who made me unhappy.
04:30Looks like you've changed.
04:34The guests at the party sneered at me.
04:37They were all Charlotte and Ethan's friends.
04:40They had always thought I was not good enough for Ethan,
04:42and felt nothing but dislike towards me.
04:50Amelia, I know you don't like Charlotte.
04:53I've already tried to keep you away from her.
04:55But her promotion party only lasts one day.
04:58Can't you just bear with it for a few hours?
05:02The sharp taste helped me stay conscious for a few more seconds.
05:06Instead of just begging, a spark of cold anger rose in me.
05:09I started crawling toward the door,
05:11my nails scraping the ground with determination.
05:13I hoped someone outside could help me,
05:15and part of me refused to die quietly in front of them.
05:20What's wrong?
05:21You got exposed, and now that Ethan won't defend you anymore,
05:24you're embarrassed and trying to run away?
05:29But a couple exchanged uneasy glance.
05:31My weak body hit the champagne tower.
05:34Glasses fell to the ground,
05:35and champagne spilled all over me,
05:37soaking my clothes and mixing with my cold sweat.
05:46You call yourself the fiancé of a mafia boss?
05:49There's a limit to playing the victim.
05:51Look at yourself, all miserable and pathetic.
05:53You're making Ethan look bad.
05:55Ethan, your fiancé's been causing trouble even before the wedding.
05:59Imagine what she'll be like later.
06:01Today is the perfect chance to teach her a lesson.
06:11Amelia, I've had enough.
06:13Stop pretending and get up!
06:16The next moment, he froze.
06:18My face was deathly pale,
06:20lips turning a faint blue.
06:26Amelia's terrified of pain.
06:29Could it really be?
06:30My mind was already fogging over.
06:33It's so hot.
06:35And this is an outdoor party.
06:37She's suffering from heat strike.
06:39Yet she lies on the ground and continues to pretend.
06:42A cold drink will fix her right up.
06:47Suddenly, everything went strangely quiet inside me.
06:51My heart no longer raced.
06:53It stuttered in irregular, terrifying beats.
06:57Not because the pain had eased,
06:59but because I seemed to have forgotten how to breathe.
07:04She's not actually dying, is she?
07:07Ethan looked at me with worry.
07:09He pushed through the crowd.
07:14Amelia, what's wrong?
07:17Move!
07:17Get out of the way!
07:19Amelia, your next role is a heroine with a heart condition?
07:24It's no wonder your act looks so real.
07:38Ethan glanced at the trailer on Charlotte's phone.
07:41His worry turned to anger.
07:43Amelia, this is Charlotte's celebration party,
07:46not your personal show.
07:47Get up, or else...
07:50I was in too much pain to hear the rest.
07:53My face twisted in agony.
07:55Looks like she hasn't changed.
07:57Ethan, teach her a lesson.
07:59You are the mafia boss.
08:01How can you let her ruin my party
08:03and make a fool of you?
08:06Listen, Charlotte is the star today.
08:09Whether you like it or not...
08:17Ethan took a glass of strong whiskey
08:19from a waiter
08:20and held it out to me.
08:23Get up
08:24and toast to Charlotte.
08:25I'll overlook the stupid thing you did today.
08:28Tears ran down my face from the pain.
08:31I looked at Ethan's cold, heartless face
08:33and forced myself to say...
08:36No!
08:37Amelia,
08:38I already finished my drink.
08:40You are really narrow-minded.
08:42Poor Ethan.
08:44He always tries to defend you.
08:45If you love acting so much,
08:47I'll help you.
08:54I struggled.
08:55I could only watch helplessly
08:57as they poured the whiskey into my mouth.
08:59My heart could not take it.
09:01Sharp pain and suffocating pressure
09:03spread through me.
09:10Help.
09:11Help me.
09:12My heart.
09:14Stop pretending, Amelia.
09:16It is just a glass of whiskey.
09:18It can't hurt you.
09:19I've known you for a very long time
09:21and never once heard about your heart condition.
09:25I stayed silent because I loved you.
09:28I wanted to give you a chance,
09:29but you disappointed me.
09:41Three years ago,
09:42I ran away to follow my dream of acting.
09:45One day,
09:45I was cornered by street bags
09:47and Ethan appeared like a hero.
09:52We fell in love at first sight
09:54and quickly grew close.
09:55When I learned that Ethan,
09:57who seemed cold and de-packed,
09:59had lost both his parents to sudden illness,
10:01I decided to hide my own condition
10:03so that he would not have to feel
10:05that kind of fear and worry again.
10:08Ethan turned away in disgust
10:10and refused to look at me again.
10:14After he turned his back,
10:16Charlene grew even more smug.
10:21I was forced to open my bloodshot eyes
10:24to look at the cruel woman in front of me.
10:33Why?
10:35Why are you doing this to me?
10:38You don't deserve him.
10:39Ethan is handsome,
10:40rich,
10:41and the boss of the entire Rolling Stones.
10:43I spent 11 years trying to win his heart
10:46and failed.
10:47How can someone like you,
10:48a filthy rat
10:49who crawled out of the gutter,
10:51ever deserve him?
10:52A filthy rat
10:53a cold, bitter smile
10:55appeared on my lips.
10:56If my father knew
10:57I had been humiliated
10:59and mistreated like this
11:00after leaving home,
11:01how heartbroken would he be?
11:03Sadly,
11:04I would never see him again.
11:06My consciousness began to fade.
11:08Through the blur,
11:09I saw the pouch of medicine
11:10I had dropped near the waiter's feet.
11:12Some emergency medicine
11:13was still inside.
11:24I thought I could reach the pouch.
11:27Even if I could not,
11:29I hope this would catch this waiter's attention.
11:35Weren't you just pretending
11:37you were about to die?
11:38Look how fat
11:38you can crawl now.
11:41Amelia,
11:41you just couldn't help
11:43showing your clumsy trick!
11:45I take back my compliment
11:46about your acting!
11:49She raised her voice
11:51on purpose
11:51to draw everyone's attention.
11:53Ethan glanced at me,
11:54then turned away
11:55with even more impatience.
11:57I did not care about that.
11:58I bit down on the pain
11:59and tried to pull the packet away
12:01from under Charlotte's feel.
12:02Charlotte gave me
12:03a mocking smile
12:04and whispered,
12:05Your heart must hurt so much
12:06you nearly died, right?
12:08There's worse pain yet to come.
12:12Charlotte's eyes went cold.
12:13She lifted her foot
12:15and kicked my outstretched arm.
12:19I felt numb
12:20and could not even make a sound.
12:23The waiter who had been pushed aside
12:25pointed under the table
12:26and screamed,
12:27There's blood!
12:28There's so much blood!
12:31His cry got everyone's attention.
12:33Ethan frowned.
12:35He pushed through the guests
12:36and rushed to my side.
12:37When he saw me,
12:39he froze.
12:40The small cuts on my arm
12:41from the broken glass
12:42had been ripped open
12:43by Charlotte's heel.
12:44Blood flowed
12:45and soaked the grass beneath me.
12:47Amelia!
12:47I'll take you to the hospital now!
12:50He did not hesitate
12:52and reached to pick me up.
12:54Charlotte showed a flicker of panic.
12:58This is nothing, Ethan.
12:59It looks worse than it actually is.
13:01It's just a surface wound.
13:04No need for an emergency.
13:06I'm a doctor.
13:06I can treat her faster
13:08than going to the hospital.
13:09Charlotte acted concerned
13:10and lifted my arm.
13:12Blood ran from the wound
13:14and mixed with grass and dirt.
13:17Amelia,
13:18you have to stop
13:19with the pity party.
13:20You crawled over the glass
13:22on purpose
13:22to cut yourself,
13:23didn't you?
13:24You're taking advantage
13:25of Ethan's love for you
13:26to make him give in.
13:27I feel sorry for him.
13:34Is that it, Amelia?
13:36You knew I couldn't stand
13:37seeing someone close to me hurt
13:39so you used such petty tricks
13:41to threaten me?
13:41Can't you even put up
13:42with such a small thing
13:43as this for me?
13:45Listen, Amelia.
13:46We aren't leaving this place today.
13:48We'll stay until the party ends.
13:50Charlotte,
13:51treat her wound.
13:52Whoever helps Amelia
13:53will be considered
13:54to be against
13:55the whole Rolling Stones.
13:56Charlotte grew triumphant.
13:58She lifted my injured arm
14:00as if it were a rag doll.
14:02Don't worry, Ethan.
14:03I've treated wounds
14:04like these many times before.
14:06First,
14:07we need to disinfect them.
14:09She grabbed a glass of liquor
14:11and poured it
14:11straight onto my wound.
14:16The burning pain
14:17made my weak heart
14:19stop for a moment.
14:20My mind cleared a little.
14:22I spat up blood
14:23and managed to say
14:24with difficulty,
14:26my father.
14:28Reese
14:29won't let you
14:30get away with this.
14:34Your father?
14:35A junkie from West Street
14:37or a drunk from East Street?
14:38My father runs
14:39the city hospitals
14:40and has close ties
14:41with the Rolling Stones.
14:42Don't try to act superior
14:44in front of me.
14:47Darkness flickered
14:48at the edge of my vision.
14:50I felt numb
14:51and could no longer
14:51feel the pain.
14:53Reese?
14:54You mean the Reese family
14:56that controls
14:56half the mafia world?
14:57Don't listen to her lies!
14:59Ethan told me
14:59she's a failed actress!
15:01If Ethan hadn't rescued her,
15:03who knows where
15:04she'd be now?
15:07The Reese family?
15:09Please!
15:10This woman will say
15:11anything to survive!
15:13After hearing Charlotte's words,
15:16they laughed cruelly.
15:17Ethan's face grew even darker.
15:20He turned his back on me
15:22and walked away.
15:23He did not care about me
15:25even though I was dying.
15:30my body grew stiff.
15:34Before I blacked out,
15:36tears blurred my view.
15:38Papa,
15:40save me.
15:41I called out
15:42even though I knew
15:43it might just be
15:43a hallucination.
15:52Papa?
15:53Do you really think
15:54you are a mafia principissa?
15:56Who is your Papa?
15:57A mindless fan
15:58or another sponsor?
16:00She saw Ethan walk away
16:01and grabbed my mud-cocked hair.
16:05She slapped me hard.
16:09My world collapsed
16:10into dizzying blackness.
16:21Face the truth!
16:24Even if you die by our hands,
16:26no one's coming to save you!
16:34Just as I closed my eyes
16:36in despair,
16:36a furious voice
16:38rang in my ear.
16:39I knew it better
16:40than any other voice
16:42in the world.
16:46How dare you torment
16:48my daughter!
16:49I'll make you pay
16:50with your lives!
16:53My father stormed
16:55into the party
16:55with a group of mafia men
16:57behind him.
16:57Meow!
16:59Meow!
