00:00Mi madre feared I might marry a foreign man, so she arranged an engagement for me.
00:03I grew up abroad.
00:04Mi madre feared I might marry a foreign man,
00:07so she arranged an engagement for me with a talented and handsome man in Float On.
00:11She insisted that I return home to get engaged.
00:14I came back and started shopping for an engagement dress at a luxury boutique.
00:18I selected an off-white strapless gown and decided to try it on.
00:22Suddenly, a woman nearby glanced at the dress in my hand and told the saleswoman,
00:27That's a unique design.
00:30Let me try it.
00:31The saleswoman immediately yanked it out of my hands.
00:34I protested indignantly.
00:36Excuse me, I was here first.
00:38Don't you understand the principle of first come, first served?
00:40Or do you just not care about common decency?
00:43The woman scoffed and retorted.
00:45This dress costs $188,000.
00:48Do you really think a broken body like you can even afford it?
00:51I'm Lucas Goodwin's sister in All But Blood.
00:54He's the chairman of Goodwin's group.
00:57In Float On, the Goodwin family sets the rules.
00:59What a coincidence.
01:01Lucas Goodwin was my fiancé.
01:03I immediately called him and said,
01:05Hey, your sister in All But Blood just stole my engagement dress.
01:08Do something about it.
01:10The term sister in All But Blood implied less than innocent connotations.
01:14If Lucas Goodwin failed to give me a proper explanation on that day,
01:18I would cancel the engagement banquet.
01:20To my surprise, Lucas responded coldly.
01:23Who are you?
01:25Since when does a stranger like you get to question my relationship with Vivian?
01:29I was about to tell him that I was his fiancé, but he hung up abruptly.
01:32I became angry.
01:34How dare he not save my contact information?
01:36Meanwhile, Vivian Morrow, who was standing beside me, grinned triumphantly.
01:41You wench.
01:43Did you really think having Lucas' number makes you special?
01:46Keep dreaming.
01:48She looked at me with open contempt.
01:50Even the Janners at Goodwin's group dress better than you.
01:53I had always preferred simple, comfortable clothes and never cared about brand names.
01:58I never thought that would give people a reason to look down on me.
02:01What era are you even living in?
02:03To think you'd still be judging people by their looks.
02:06Lucas must be out of his mind to call you his sister in All But Blood.
02:10My mood for shopping was ruined, thanks to her antics.
02:13I grabbed the gown and headed straight to the checkout counter.
02:15The saleswoman hesitated before saying,
02:18Miss, I'm sorry, but we prioritize our members first.
02:22Vivian smirked and slammed her shiny gold membership card onto the counter.
02:26Only people who've spent over a million get this card.
02:29What's a broke loser like you even doing here?
02:32I was not usually one to pick fights, but on that day, Vivian had really crossed a line.
02:37I pulled out a black card and handed it to the saleswoman.
02:40I suppressed my anger and said,
02:42Sign me up for a membership.
02:44Then bagged the gown.
02:46Vivian glared at the saleswoman and threatened.
02:49The Goodwins own Floaten.
02:51If you sell her that gown today, I'll have Luke's buy this store out tomorrow.
02:55The saleswoman shrank back timidly and said,
02:58Miss, I'm just an employee.
03:00I can't risk offending Goodwin's group.
03:02Several onlookers turned to me and offered me advice in whispers.
03:06That's Mrs. Moreau.
03:07I've seen her around.
03:08Lucas Goodwin's oils were rotten.
03:10You should just let it go.
03:11The last time someone crossed her, Goodwin's group drove them into bankruptcy.
03:43You may have some money, but it's pocket change compared to Goodwin's group.
03:45What?
03:46What are you, deaf?
03:48Say I'm a worthless poser.
03:49I'm sorry.
03:50Do I need to spell it out for you?
03:52I smirked.
03:53I heard you.
03:54Since you're aware that you're a worthless poser, get out of my sight.
03:59Don't waste my time.
04:01When Vivian finally realized she was being mocked, she flailed her arms and charged at me.
04:06It was laughable to see her trying to attack me.
04:08I had a black belt in taekwondo.
04:10Did she really think her flimsy punches would scare me?
04:13I sent Vivian crashing to the floor with a single kick.
04:19She howled in pain.
04:21The onlookers stared at me in horror.
04:23Onlooker gosh.
04:24Did she just do that to Mrs. Morley?
04:27Mr. Goodwin is going to tear her to pieces once he hears about this.
04:31Yeah, good luck to her.
04:33Not even God can save her.
04:35I felt nothing when I heard their whispers.
04:38The Goodwin family had only achieved their current status through my mother's support.
04:42No one in this city could intimidate me.
04:44I slammed my card on the counter again and said to the cashier,
04:49Ring me up.
04:50The cashier, visibly shaken, fumbled as she processed my payment and wrapped up the gown.
04:55I turned to leave with the bag in hand.
04:58Vivian scrambled to stand up and blocked my path again.
05:01You're not going anywhere!
05:02I raised my fist and waved it in front of her face.
05:06What's the matter?
05:07Do you want to taste my fist again?
05:10Vivian flinched instinctively.
05:11I scoffed and strode past her.
05:14Just then, a black car pulled up in front of the store.
05:17A man stepped out.
05:19I felt my heart skip a beat.
05:21Vivian immediately rushed over tearfully to tattle.
05:24Luke!
05:25She stole my gown from me and even hit me!
05:29So, this was my fiancé.
05:30I had always been a sucker for good looks, and Lucas' appearance was exactly my type.
05:35Based on his looks alone, I felt I could forgive his previous rudeness.
05:41I gave him my best smile.
05:43Hi!
05:44I'm Lily Winsong, your fiancé.
05:47It was no wonder my mother said I would be satisfied with the man she had picked this time.
05:52She really knew me inside out.
05:54The onlookers immediately erupted in gasps.
05:57What?
05:58She's Mr. Goodwin's fiancé?
06:02Lucas looked at me coldly.
06:04Don't get ahead of yourself.
06:05My father arranged this engagement without my consent.
06:09I never agreed to it.
06:10Vivian, who stood beside him, wrapped her arm around his and leaned intimately against his shoulder.
06:16She shot me a provocative glance.
06:18Look at yourself.
06:19There is no way Lukes would ever marry an ugly creature like you!
06:22Someone chimed in.
06:24Exactly!
06:25If Mr. Goodwin were to marry, it would be to some rich girl from a proper family with equal status,
06:29not some country bumping like you.
06:31With her looks, Goodwin's group wouldn't even hire her to mop floors.
06:34I had never considered myself a stunning beauty, but I was certainly not ugly.
06:38How could they describe me in such derogatory terms?
06:42This proved how people instinctively curry favor with the powerful,
06:45and took advantage of those in misfortune.
06:47Lucas Goodwin, go home and tell your father that I'm calling off this engagement.
06:54You don't deserve me.
06:58According to my mother, his father had pulled countless strings to arrange this marriage alliance with our family.
07:04If he learned that his own son had ruined it, he'd skin Lucas alive.
07:08The thought lifted my mood a little.
07:10I could not be bothered to waste more time on these idiots, so I turned to leave.
07:14But Vivian, knowing that Lucas would back her up, refused to let it go.
07:19She blocked my path again.
07:21Don't even try to run, you wench!
07:23We're not done here!
07:24You stole my gown and hit me!
07:27I looked at her disdainfully.
07:29What exactly do you want?
07:30Mistaking my calm for fear, she raised her hand to slap me.
07:34I'll slap you until I feel satisfied!
07:36I caught her wrist mid-swing and slapped her across the face without hesitation.
07:41She stared at me in shock.
07:44Had enough?
07:46Vivian said angrily.
07:47Those two slaps wiped the arrogant look off Vivian's face.
07:51She burst into tears and cowered behind Lucas.
07:54Lucas!
07:55Do something!
07:56Lucas shielded her protectively and snarled,
07:59Touch my girl again, and I'll end you.
08:02He signaled his bodyguards to grab me.
08:05I managed to take down the first bodyguard with a quick strike, but the second one pinned me down.
08:10After a barrage of blows, I collapsed to the floor.
08:13The two bodyguards hauled me up and forced me to my knees before Vivian and Lucas.
08:18They looked down at me.
08:19Lucas backed Vivian up and said,
08:21Vivi.
08:23Do whatever you want to her.
08:26I've got your back.
08:28With Lucas' reassurance, Vivian immediately gained confidence.
08:31She slapped me twice, then spat in my face.
08:34You wench.
08:36Where's all that attitude now?
08:38Huh?
08:40Come on.
08:41Show me how tough you are.
08:43Then, she kicked me hard in the stomach.
08:47Clutching my aching abdomen, I raised my gaze to glare at her and Lucas.
08:52You'll regret this.
08:54I swear you'll pay for this.
08:58Vivian laughed arrogantly.
08:59The Goodwin family is one of the top three powerful families running this city.
09:03What can a broke loser like you even do against me?
09:07Today, I'll teach you what happens when you mess with me.
09:09She pulled out a nail clipper from her bag and slashed it across my face.
09:13Searing pain shot through my cheek as the skin swelled, and I felt blood seeping out.
09:18Someone sighed in pity.
09:20I told her not to cross the Goodwin family.
09:22Guess she had to learn the hard way.
09:24What a shame.
09:26Her pretty face is ruined now.
09:28Folks like us can't afford trouble.
09:30We'd better swallow our pride when we're out here.
09:32Vivian raised the nail clipper again, aiming for another slash at my face.
09:36Terror at the thought of disfigurement overwhelmed me, and I quickly begged for mercy.
09:42Fine, fine, I'm sorry.
09:44Take the dress.
09:46I shouldn't have fought you for it.
09:49Revenge could wait.
09:50At that moment, saving my face was the priority.
09:53However, Vivian still slapped the blade across my face again.
09:58Oh, now you're sorry.
10:00Well, it's too late now.
10:03Wench, I won't let you go until I've vented every ounce of my rage.
10:08I screamed in pain and turned to Lucas for help.
10:10Lucas, you know my background.
10:13Aren't you afraid of the consequences?
10:15If you keep letting her humiliate me like this, you'll regret it.
10:19Lucas sneered.
10:20What status could you possibly have?
10:22Your mother bewitched my father into forcing this engagement on me.
10:27A vicious gleam flashed in Vivian's gaze.
10:30Your mother is a witch, and I bet you are one too.
10:35Strip off and let me see clearly.
10:39No!
10:39Just then, my phone rang from inside my bag.
10:42I struggled desperately to reach it, but Vivian snatched it first.
10:45She swiped to answer, and my mother's voice came through immediately.
10:49Lillabelt?
10:50How's the gown shopping going?
10:52I hurriedly shouted for help.
10:55Mom!
10:56Save me!
10:57Someone's hurting me!
10:59She's trying to strip me off!
11:01My mother panicked.
11:03What?
11:03Who's doing this to you?
11:05Vivian cut in arrogantly.
11:07Me!
11:08Your little witch daughter has been begging for attention, so I'm putting her in her place.
11:12My mother snapped.
11:13I don't care who you are.
11:14Let my daughter go now, or you'll pay for this when I get there.
11:18Try me!
11:18I'll be right here to catch you, you witch!
11:21With that, Vivian hung up my phone and furled it to the floor.
11:24It shattered into pieces.
11:26She slapped me across the face again and sneered.
11:29The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
11:32Huh?
11:33When your mother shows up, I'll strip her down too.
11:36Time crawled by.
11:37It felt like half a century, but in reality, it had only been five minutes.
11:42Finally, a familiar stretched limousine appeared.
11:46My mother stepped out of the car and demanded,
11:49Let me see who dares threaten to strip me down.
11:52The instant I saw my mother, a wave of pent-up grievances surged through me.
11:57Mom!
11:57I cried as my voice broke with emotion.
12:00My mother's heart broke at the sight of me.
12:02She immediately rushed toward me and pulled me into her embrace.
12:06I finally felt safe when I leaned against my mother's chest.
12:09The surrounding onlookers gasped in astonishment at my mother's vehicle.
12:13Look!
12:13That's a limited edition stretch limousine.
12:16Only the extremely rich and powerful can own that car.
12:19It seems Vivian messed with the wrong person this time.
12:22Wrong person.
12:24Please.
12:25Even if she's got connections, nobody could possibly outrank the Goodwin family in this city.
12:30Vivian thought the same too.
12:32She charged toward my mother.
12:33So you're the witch who raised this brat?
12:36She dared to steal my dress and hit me.
12:39Tell me, how are you going to make this right?
12:41My mother raised her eyes to look at her.
12:43How am I going to make this right?
12:46Oblivious to my mother's murderous glare, Vivian made her demands without restraint.
12:51This was my dress until your trashy daughter put her hands on it.
12:56Now it's ruined.
12:57You'll pay ten times the price.
13:00And for those slaps, she'll kneel right here and slap herself twenty times in front of everyone.
13:06Most importantly, cancel her engagement with Luke.
13:09Do everything I say, and maybe I'll let you walk out of here in one piece.
13:13Otherwise, you're not leaving this store alive.
13:17My mother laughed in disbelief when she heard Vivian's outrageous demands.
13:21She gave my shoulder a reassuring pat before walking toward Vivian.
13:24The engagement between Lillebeau and the Goodwin family will most certainly be cancelled.
13:29Lucas could never measure up to being part of our family.
13:32As for the rest of your demands, my mother raised her hand and slapped her face hard.
13:38Don't even dream about it.
13:39You're the ones who won't be walking out today.
13:42Vivian stood stunned for a second before attempting to retaliate.
13:46My mother's bodyguard kicked her to her knees, then pinned her arms down.
13:50After struggling futilely, Vivian lifted her head to plead with Lucas.
13:54Lucas!
13:56It hurts!
13:58Help me!
13:59Lucas signaled his bodyguards to intervene, but within seconds they were overpowered and slammed to the floor.
14:05The most satisfying part followed.
14:07Lucas himself was forced to my knees before me.
14:10My mother did not hold back and slapped Lucas.
14:13I've never laid a finger on Lilibeth since she was born.
14:16And you dare humiliate her like this today, you'll repay this a thousand times over.
14:22My mother did not hold back and slapped Lucas.
14:25You old hag!
14:27How dare you hit me?
14:28I'm the chairman of Goodwin's group.
14:30You have no idea what consequences you'll face.
14:33How dare you hurt my daughter?
14:34I'd slap your father just like I slapped you if he's here.
14:37The onlookers grew even more shocked.
14:39Who does this woman think she is?
14:42Mr. Goodwin Sr. ran the underworld in his youth.
14:45After leaving that life behind, he built the Goodwin's group.
14:48Even now, everyone in Floaten shows him respect.
14:50She just struck Mr. Goodwin Sr.'s golden boy.
14:54There's no way she's walking away from this.
14:56My mother ignored their whispers.
14:58She gently touched my swollen, bleeding cheek.
15:01Oh, Lilibel, you've suffered enough.
15:04But I'm here now.
15:06Don't be afraid.
15:07Do you want payback?
15:09Just say the word.
15:10I was not the type to turn the other cheek to begin with.
15:13I certainly would not be after what Vivian just called.
15:16I stared at her with a furious gaze.
15:18First, I struck her repeatedly across the face to vent my anger.
15:23Then, I picked up the nail clipper she had used to slash my cheek and slowly brought it closer to
15:28her face.
15:29Vivian trembled violently.
15:31Don't!
15:32Don't you dare touch my face!
15:34I'll fight you to the death!
15:36Without hesitation, I made the first cut.
15:38She let out a blood-curdling scream as a bleeding gash swelled along one cheek.
15:42I slashed the blade repeatedly.
15:45Soon, her face was swollen beyond recognition.
15:47It looked bruised and bloody.
15:49She could do nothing but wail in helpless agony as she was pinned down by the bodyguards.
15:55My face...
15:56My face is ruined!
15:59It was true that a person would not know the pain until it was theirs to bear.
16:02When she tried to disfigure me, she should have expected retribution.
16:07Lucas, who was nearby, snarled at me.
16:10You psychotic wench!
16:12When my father finds out what you did to Vivi, he'll make you pay!
16:16My mother said coldly,
16:17Good.
16:18Let Bernard come.
16:20We'll see who he punishes.
16:21You or us.
16:23My mother immediately took out her phone and called Bernard Goodwin.
16:26He answered instantly.
16:28Hello, Denia.
16:30What's the matter?
16:31My mother replied coldly,
16:33Bernard, you've certainly raised an exceptional son.
16:37Recognizing her displeasure, Bernard responded with forced laughter.
16:41Denia, what has my useless son done now?
16:44Just say the word and I'll punish him severely.
16:47You know, Lilliville is my only daughter.
16:49I've cherished her like the apple of my eye since she was born.
16:52Yes, of course.
16:53Rest assured, when Mrs. Winsone marries into our family,
16:57I won't let her suffer even the slightest grief.
17:00My mother's voice trembled with suppressed rage.
17:03Well, your precious boy, Lucas, has let Lilliville suffer a terrible humiliation.
17:09He tied her up and allowed her to be beaten and insulted for the sake of some pretend sister.
17:14How are you going to make this right?
17:17Bernard was in disbelief when he heard this.
17:19He then said,
17:20What?
17:21That brat hurt Mrs. Winsone?
17:24Skin him alive for all I care.
17:26Do whatever you want with him.
17:28Lucas, who was kneeling on the floor, shouted,
17:30Dad, has this witch cast a spell on you?
17:33These two witches are evil.
17:35They ruined Vivi's face and made me kneel.
17:39Instead of saving me, you're letting them have their way with me.
17:42I'm your son!
17:44Bernard roared furiously.
17:46You're a disgrace.
17:47After this disaster you've caused,
17:49I wish I'd never had you.
17:52Lucas tried to speak again.
17:53My mother ended the call deliberately.
17:55She looked at him with contempt.
17:57Do you still think your father is going to save you?
18:00You black widow.
18:02Don't get cocky.
18:03He's just blowing off steam.
18:05I'm his flesh and blood.
18:07When he comes for me, you're dead.
18:09Ever since I could remember,
18:11my father's memory was my mother's most tender spot.
18:13No one would dare broach it.
18:15Lucas truly had a death wish
18:17and was walking straight into the line of fire.
18:20As expected, my mother's expression darkened.
18:23She looked at him with a murderous gaze.
18:25I swiftly kicked Lucas in the back.
18:27He sprawled face first onto the floor.
18:30Mom, don't waste your anger on this worthless fool.
18:33Let me handle him.
18:34I know exactly how to deal with them.
18:36With that, I ordered the bodyguards to take both of them away.
18:39I sidled up to mom and whined.
18:42Mom, my face really hurts.
18:44Will you come with me to get it treated first?
18:46My coaxing tone successfully snapped my mother back to rationality.
18:50She gently touched my injured cheek
18:52and accompanied me to the hospital.
18:54Floodon's top dermatologists and plastic surgeons gathered to examine me.
18:58After disinfecting my facial wounds,
19:01they discussed treatment plans to ensure no scars would remain.
19:04Once the treatment plan was finalized,
19:06the doctors gradually dispersed.
19:08Only my mother and I remained in the ward.
19:11I leaned my head against her shoulder and murmured reassuringly,
19:14Mom, don't take Lucas's words to heart.
19:17Lillabelt, your father really did die because of me.
19:20Do you hate me for making you grow up without a father?
19:22Her voice thickened with guilt and regret.
19:25I shook my head and hugged her tighter.
19:27I knew better than anyone how much she had suffered these years.
19:30My father had been part of the underworld.
19:33He had countless subordinates.
19:35Bernard was just one of his underlings.
19:37Everything changed when he met my mother.
19:39They fell in love at first sight.
19:41The violent womanizer who lived for fights and flings finally settled down.
19:45From that moment, his heart belonged only to my mother.
19:48But this gave my father a weakness.
19:51His enemies repeatedly targeted my mother.
19:53In the end, he sacrificed his life protecting her.
19:56I was less than a year old at the time.
19:58My grandparents said she would have followed my father in death had I not existed.
20:02For my sake, she dragged herself through the grief.
20:05She dissolved my father's underworld organization.
20:08From its members, she selected those with business acumen and funded their ventures.
20:12My mother understood the danger of drawing attention.
20:15To shield me from becoming a target,
20:17she maintained a low profile and never appeared before the media or public.
20:21It was no exaggeration to say my mother built three of Floden's major financial empires.
20:26Only a few knew this truth.
20:28This explained why idiots like Lucas remained ignorant of her true status.
20:33That was why he dared spew nonsense.
20:36After a week of medical treatment, my facial injuries healed completely.
20:40My skin became even smoother and more radiant than before.
20:44One day, the housekeeper brought over another gift from Bernard.
20:47It was a 1945 Chateau Lafite.
20:50It was one of only a few left in the world.
20:52It was clear Bernard had gone to great lengths to save his son.
20:56After locking Lucas and Vivian up for a week, it was about time I paid them a visit.
21:00I instructed the housekeeper to inform Bernard who was waiting outside.
21:05Then, I had the bodyguards bring Lucas and Vivian up from the basement.
21:08Those seven short days had transformed them beyond recognition.
21:12Their hair was matted and their bodies reeked of foul odors.
21:16Vivian's facial wounds were left untreated.
21:18It had festered and swollen.
21:20Her entire face had turned into a bloated mess and was ruined beyond repair.
21:25When Lucas spotted Bernard, tears of relief streamed down his face.
21:29He scrambled over on hands and knees.
21:37He pointed a shaking finger at me.
21:40It was her!
21:41She locked me in that water cell.
21:44She deprived me of sleep, starved me, and forced me to eat rotten food.
21:50I smiled slightly as I looked at him.
21:53Yet you always licked the bowl clean, though, didn't you, Mr. Goodwin?
21:57Human survival instincts were truly remarkable.
22:00I had ordered the guards to deliver just one meal of cold, rancid oatmeal per day.
22:05At first, Lucas proudly declared he would rather starve than touch such food.
22:09He was the chairman of Goodwin's group, after all.
22:12But after three days without food, pride became meaningless.
22:15They fought over that putrid oatmeal and even licked their bowls clean.
22:19Lucas glared at me savagely.
22:22You vicious witch.
22:24Now that my father is here, your little game is over.
22:28Sometimes I marveled at life's scales of balance.
22:31When it gave you one thing, it would always take away another.
22:34Clearly, Lucas's intelligence had been traded for his looks.
22:37Before he could finish his threat, Bernard struck him across the head.
22:42You disgrace!
22:43Are you trying to give me a heart attack?
22:47Get on your knees and apologize to Ms. Winshow right now!
22:51Lucas turned to his father, his face twisted in betrayal.
22:55Why should I apologize?
22:57She tortured me for days!
23:00Instead of having my back, why are you taking her side?
23:02Bernard looked at his clueless son in despair.
23:05He was truly at his wit's end.
23:07Since my mother had given strict instructions, Bernard could not reveal my identity.
23:12He could only vent his frustration by kicking Lucas behind the knees and forcing him to kneel before me.
23:18Bernard spoke with cautious deference.
23:32Witnessing his father's humiliating submission, Lucas finally realized that I was not just some nobody.
23:38Dad, who is she?
23:43We're the Goodwin family.
23:45One of the three most powerful families running this city.
23:48Since when has there been anyone we can't afford to offend?
23:51Bernard glared at him with disgust.
23:53You stupid brat!
23:55How many times have I told you there's always someone above us?
23:58I told you to behave, but you never listened!
24:01Let me make this clear.
24:04Mrs. Winsaw is exactly who we can't afford to offend.
24:09Whether you walk out of here depends entirely on her.
24:13Finally comprehending the gravity of the situation, Lucas' expression shifted from resentment to pure terror.
24:19He stammered and said,
24:20Mrs. Winswone, I've been a fool.
24:25Please forgive me.
24:27I sat in my chair as I slowly sipped the coffee beside me before addressing them.
24:32Bernard, you're actually wrong about Lucas.
24:35He wasn't the one who offended me.
24:37It's his sister in all but blood that did.
24:39Lucas merely wanted to stand up for her.
24:41You're such a disgrace!
24:43Instead of learning proper conduct, you're messing around with some pretend sister.
24:48Get that woman out of my sight.
24:49Now!
24:50Seeing this, Vivian instantly realized Lucas was barely keeping his own head above water at the moment.
24:55He could not save himself, much less her.
24:59Just remembering her time in the water cell, she vowed never to suffer like that again.
25:04Her legs gave out.
25:05She collapsed to her knees with a thud and started apologizing frantically.
25:09Mrs. Winsaw!
25:10I'm sorry!
25:12I'm sorry!
25:13I'm the worthless poser!
25:15Please forgive me!
25:16Please spare me just this once.
25:19Please!
25:20Please!
25:21I beg you!
25:22Please spare my miserable life!
25:26Her words echoed in the room as she repeatedly begged for forgiveness on her knees.
25:30Lucas finally lowered his proud head in submission.
25:33Mrs. Winsbone, I was blind and foolish to wrong you.
25:37I won't bully people or pull that privileged nonsense again.
25:41Please just give me this one chance.
25:43After finishing my coffee, I set the cup aside.
25:45I looked at the people around me and said calmly,
25:48My, you are all speaking as if I'm some homicidal maniac.
25:53This is a society governed by law.
25:55Do I really look like a criminal to you?
25:58Bernard ventured cautiously.
26:00Mrs. Winsbone, does this mean you're forgiving this idiot?
26:03I smiled.
26:05Of course.
26:06Though they'd hurt me, I've hurt them too.
26:09An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.
26:12I'll let this matter end here.
26:13Lucas and Vivian resumed frantically thanking me for their mercy.
26:17I cleared my throat before continuing.
26:19Not only do I forgive you, I intend to grant you a blessing.
26:24The three of them looked confused.
26:27After some digging, I discovered Vivian and Lucas have been dating all along.
26:32They adopted the pretend sibling's pretense because you wouldn't approve, Bernard.
26:37Well, congratulations, lovebirds.
26:40You'll be heading straight to the city hall after this.
26:42You've got exactly seven days to throw a wedding and float on.
26:45My words were met with mixed reactions.
26:48Some were delighted, others horrified.
26:50Vivian had never expected this misfortune to turn into her lucky break.
26:54Her long-held dream of climbing society's ladder by marrying a wealthy man was finally coming true.
26:59A thrill of victory rose in her chest, and she could not help but smile.
27:04However, that smile was particularly grotesque and unsettling on her nearly disfigured face.
27:09The one displeased by this turn of events was naturally Bernard.
27:13He had always looked down on Vivian's background and behavior.
27:16This disaster involving Lucas had been partly caused by her, deepening his disdain toward her.
27:21I observed the three of them, each lost in their own thoughts, and asked,
27:27Well, can you do it?
27:31When they gave me their agreement, I waved them off with a smile.
27:35There's a car waiting outside.
27:37To take you love-largs to the city hall.
27:39They scrambled to their feet and dashed out, as if afraid I might change my mind if they delayed even
27:45a second.
27:46The filthy, foul-smelling Lucas and Vivian were delivered straight to the city hall's entrance.
27:51A staff member approached them.
27:52She suppressed her disgust at the stench.
27:56Sir, miss, how may I assist you?
27:58Lucas glanced at Vivian's swollen face and could not help but feel repulsed.
28:03Still high on the thrill of bagging a good one, Vivian blurted out,
28:07We're here to get married!
28:09Even after years of handling registrations, this was the most bizarre couple the staff had ever encountered.
28:15Most couples dress their best when registering for marriage, but these two looked like refugees fleeing a disaster.
28:22The groom looked especially disgusted and reluctant.
28:25The staff processed their paperwork dutifully despite their appearance.
28:28When my driver reported they had successfully tied a knot, I felt the wicked satisfaction of a prankster seeing their
28:35scheme succeed.
28:36This particular prank, however, would haunt them for life.
28:41A week later, their wedding had the whole internet talking about the Goodwin family.
28:45The viral wedding coverage caused Goodwin's group stocks to plummet.
28:48Their assets were halved, knocking them out of Float On's top three spots.
28:52Though my orchestrated behind the scenes certainly helped.
28:55Bernard blamed Vivian entirely.
28:57He was convinced she had brought misfortune to the Goodwin family.
29:01From the moment she married in, he never showed her even a hint of kindness.
29:05After marriage, Lucas became a habitual womanizer who refused to go home and face Vivian's disfigured face due to the
29:12result of untreated wounds.
29:14Initially, Vivian had been overjoyed about marrying into the Goodwin family.
29:18As time passed, she realized even the housemaids did not regard her as Lucas's legitimate wife.
29:23Her influence within the Goodwin family was negligible.
29:26The meager monthly allowance she received was not even close to her imagined aristocratic lifestyle.
29:31They fought constantly about Lucas's repeated affairs.
29:35Through these constant fights, Vivian grew increasingly paranoid and unstable.
29:39After one particularly vicious quarrel, she snapped.
29:42She stabbed Lucas before ending her own life.
29:45I was vacationing abroad with my mother when we heard the news of their deaths.
29:50Sunlight sifted through the branches.
29:51A new day began in tranquility.
