00:00Luke let Olivia, the law firm-sponsored intern, get him to sign divorce papers without Emma Carter's knowledge.
00:05It's just a piece of paper. It wasn't actually submitted.
00:08Olivia was stressed out that day, and I just wanted to help her out.
00:10Now that she's calmed down, you can just tear it up.
00:14Her stress doesn't let her joke of our marriage.
00:17That paper has legal weight. I can hold her accountable for meddling.
00:23I told you I asked her to prepare it. Blame me.
00:27Go after me if you dare.
00:30If you keep this up, Emma Carter, I'll have to rethink our relationship.
00:33Luke knew Emma couldn't live without him. He always threatened divorce and fights.
00:38Their marriage was peaceful until Olivia arrived. Then they fought non-stop over her.
00:43Luke was sure Emma would back down this time, just like she always had.
00:47But this time, Emma didn't yield.
00:49She just watched Luke scold her impatiently while texting Olivia with a smile,
00:54and felt their years together meant nothing.
00:57She sat silently, no intention of apologizing.
01:02When Emma didn't cave, Luke clicked his tongue, grabbed his phone, and left the meeting room.
01:08Emma sat staring at the horse papers on the desk, lost in thought, until her phone buzzed with voice
01:14messages. Luke, is Emma upset about the document? Should I explain and apologize to her in person?
01:20No need. If she wants to be upset, let her. I'm not her guardian. I don't have to indulge her.
01:26Luke, don't be like that. Girls need comfort. You'll push her away.
01:30I'm tired of her dependent, emotional act. After five years, every divorce talk, she cries and begs.
01:37I hope she stays strong this time, so I can be rid of her. She'll come crying to you tomorrow.
01:42Let's bet, loser buys coffee for a week.
01:45That night, Luke didn't come home. I didn't bombard him with calls like I used to.
01:51After my parents died in a car accident, Mr. Robert Anderson took me in, and I've lived with Luke ever
01:57since.
02:00Luke always protected me, standing up for me whenever I was excluded at school.
02:05We went through law school together, became practicing lawyers, and were inseparable every
02:10step of the way. Everyone assumed I would be Luke's wife, and he never denied it. Five years of
02:16companionship made him irreplaceable. I dreamed of our future together, and truly believed we would
02:24never drift apart from each other. Our peaceful life changed when Olivia and her father Jack,
02:30sponsored by the firm, arrived. Olivia came to the Anderson family a year ago, her father Jack,
02:37a compulsive gambler owing huge debts. Robert paid off Jack's debts, gave Olivia an internship,
02:43and arranged an apartment for them. Luke and I sympathized with Olivia, helped her adjust to work,
02:49and got along well at first. Have you made any progress with Young Master Luke?
02:57Yes, Luke takes good care of me, but he's always surrounded by that Emma Carter. I can't separate
03:03them just yet, no matter how hard I've tried these days. You need to hurry up then. The Anderson family
03:09is well known in New York. Once you're with Young Master Luke, we'll be set for life. No more hiding
03:14from
03:14debt collectors. Don't worry, Dad. I'll definitely get Luke, no matter what it takes. I was stunned by
03:21their conversation, and dropped my Foldit by accident. Olivia and Jack turned to see me.
03:28Panic flashed on their faces, but the greed and scheming in their eyes stabbed my heart like needles.
03:35I was no match for the scheming Olivia, who targeted me again and again. First, she locked herself in the
03:40firm's archive room and claimed I did it out of revenge. Before a meeting, she faked diarrhea and
03:45falsely accused me of drugging her coffee. No matter what I said, Luke never believed me. Next,
03:51Olivia stole the only precious heirloom pocket watch my parents left me, destroyed it right in front of
03:55me to deliberately provoke me into slapping her hard. She made sure Luke walked in and witnessed the scene,
04:01and he immediately decided I had been relentlessly bullying her this entire time. Luke grew utterly and
04:06completely disappointed in me. Olivia kept pushing hard for divorce, while I kept begging for
04:10reconciliation, hoping to expose her ugly true nature to him. But her manipulation was far too
04:15sophisticated and cruel for me to counter with my honest straightforward words and desperate
04:19heartfelt actions. When Olivia learned Luke and I were working on a major high-stakes international
04:23merger case together, she snuck into my home study and stole my critical case files. She wanted to make
04:29me fail in court, but I noticed the theft in time and had secure electronic backups, avoiding a major
04:34disaster. Olivia was utterly despicable. She used every dirty trick in private, yet acted innocent
04:40in public, playing the victim by crying about her tragic upbringing. I never knew if Leek loved her or
04:45just felt sorry for her. All I knew was he hurt me again and again for her selfish sake. I
04:50humiliated
04:51myself repeatedly begging him for reconciliation, far too attached to our precious five-year relationship to
04:55ever let go. For five years, Luke had my guiding light, the one who took care of me. I couldn't
05:00imagine
05:00life without him. Every time he threatened divorce, I apologized and backed down. But when I heard Luke's
05:06cold, annoyed, indifferent tone in the voice messages Olivia sent me, I finally woke up completely from my
05:12years of delusion. I realized Luke didn't disbelieve me because Olivia was clever. He was just tired of me,
05:18and had long wanted to get rid of me entirely. If that's what he truly wants with all his heart,
05:23so be it. I won't apologize anymore, and I won't beg for his love or attention ever again. I will
05:29not
05:29tear up the divorce papers Olivia had him prepare for us, and I will face whatever comes next with
05:34my head held high. I didn't tear up the divorce papers Luke had signed. I calmly signed my name,
05:39submitted my resignation, and dialed Ian Black. Ian, I've made up my mind. I accept your offer to
05:44join your firm as a partner. A wise decision. We'll offer you a competitive salary, full relocation
05:48assistance, and a generous signing bonus for your qualifications. After signing the resignation
05:52papers, I finally felt a huge weight lift off my chest and slept soundly through the entire night.
05:58I no longer stayed up waiting for Luke to come home, and I never sent a single text asking where
06:03he was or what he was doing. I didn't tear up the divorce papers Luke had signed. Instead,
06:09I calmly signed my name and submitted my resignation. Ian, I've made up my mind. I accept your offer to
06:19join as a partner. Once I signed my resignation documents, I finally felt at ease and lay down to rest.
06:28The next morning, I scrolled through Olivia's social media posts. When I entered conference
06:34room three, I saw a few partners already seated. Olivia suddenly stood up, holding a freshly brewed
06:39cup of coffee. Emma, I made you a coffee. Added double cream like you like it.
06:51Emma Carter, what the hell is wrong with you? Why did you push Olivia?
06:54I didn't touch Olivia. She fell by herself. If you don't believe me, we can check the office
06:58surveillance. Luke glared at what with fury. Mention of Chasig's answer. Ovia Drone, you spoke up.
07:03I didn't return to the public office area. I stayed quietly on the partner floor, sorting through my
07:09things.
07:12Mrs. Carter, Mr. Luke would like you to go to conference room three. I didn't go to Luke's
07:19office. Instead, I went to a nearby clinic to treat the burns. My phone buzzed. It was a call from
07:24my
07:25friend Lillian. Hello? Emma, did you and Luke fight again? He's at the Behamped house with Olivia.
07:30He posted on social media asking for 1,000 breakup happy gifts to get a divorce. He's already got 999.
07:36I opened Luke's social media and saw the glaring divorce announcement.
07:40I thought back to a night a year ago. When we hit our five-year anniversary,
07:45I'll book the outdoor cinema in Central Park and we'll watch your favorite movie, Casablanca.
07:51I stared at the photo for a long time, then scrolled down to the virtual gift icon and gently tapped
07:58it.
07:58The 999 changed to 1,000.
08:05Instead of the sharp pain I had expected, I felt an odd sense of relief,
08:10as if I had finally let go of a burden I'd been carrying for far too long.
08:18The group of friends gathered around, staring at the screen with the gift count at 1,000.
08:24The atmosphere immediately became awkward.
08:28Luke, don't be mad. Emma might have just acted on impulse.
08:31Impulse? She's clearly trying to provoke me.
08:34He decided to ignore her for a while longer. Let her see how hard life was without him.
08:39When she can't take it anymore, she'll come crawling back.
08:42The next few days, Luke took Olivia to the ski resort in Vermont.
08:47Emma saw every single photo. She didn't react at all. She just liked each one with a single tap.
08:56After I liked the post, I left a rare comment. Congratulations.
09:01Within five minutes, Olivia deleted all the ski-related posts.
09:05Soon after, my phone rang. It was Mike, Luke's business partner.
09:09Mike, Luke and I are already divorced. I have the signed divorce agreement. Do you want me to send it
09:14to you?
09:15The next day at noon, I left the apartment I had lived in for five years, dragging two suches behind
09:21me.
09:27The car continued toward JFK airport.
09:32I sat down at a cafe in the lounge, ordered a black coffee, and pulled out my laptop.
09:38I'd barely typed a few lines when the light in front of me suddenly blocked out.
09:42Olivia stood at my table, her face a mix of smugness and pity.
09:46Emma, what a coincidence. Are you here to pick up Luke?
09:47He told me he's completely over you. Taking care of you was just because of his father's request.
09:51Don't you get it? I'm not here to pick him up. I'm going to New York.
09:54The reason he always sides with me isn't because he's cluntless about my tactics.
09:57It's because he's already made a choice. He's chosen me.
09:59I stood up and raised my hand. A sharp slap rang out, landing solidly across Olivia's face.
10:04This slap is for my parents. As for you and Luke,
10:07Trash belongs in the trash can. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness,
10:11but please stay away from ruining other people's lives.
10:13Luke waited at the VIP exit at the airport, looking out for Emma, but she never showed up.
10:20Where is she?
10:21He tried calling, first getting a busy signal, and then it went straight to voicemail.
10:29She not only cursed me out, she hit me! She hit me!
10:32Trash belongs in the trash can. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness, but please,
10:37stay away from ruining others.
10:39Luke's face turned ashen. He recognized Emma's voice, and he could hear the finality
10:44and disgust in her words. Without warning, he spun around and kicked over the giant decorative cake.
10:54Meanwhile, I had just landed at New York's JFK airport. A message popped up. Exit C, Black Mercedes. Ian.
11:04Welcome to New York.
11:15Call me Ian. We're partners now.
11:18Mr. Black, I'm sorry for the trouble of picking me up in person.
11:25You deserve it, Emma.
11:29He said he reviewed the antitrust case. He said I did exceptionally well.
11:51I stared at the screen. I knew this call was a ghost from a life I'd buried.
11:58Emma! Luke's party isn't over. Everyone's waiting.
12:01Luke, remember that instructor we had when we went skiing in Vermont?
12:06He said my form had a lot of potential.
12:14I have the signed divorce agreement. Don't call me about Luke again.
12:30And then I saw it. The reason I should care. And the reason I didn't.
12:47Mike was trying to fix it. But some things can't be fixed with a parlor trick.
12:53Whoever gets the ace of hearts or king of dolmens, you'll do a close kiss and it has to last
12:5930 seconds.
13:02Start the timer. Start the timer.
13:07Start the timer.
13:10Jack of spades. Safe. Or so he thought.
13:15Whoops! My mistake. Luke, yours is the king of diamonds. King's orders can't be ignored.
13:23When exes break up, it's like they've died to each other.
13:38He closed the distance. Not for her. For the ghost he hoped was watching. A sweet,
13:45overpowering floral scent. Nothing like Emma. Nothing like home.
13:54I'll send it to Emma. She won't be able to sit still.
14:0430 seconds felt longer than 30 years of marriage.
14:14She really wasn't coming. She really...
14:24Just rest here, Luke. Emma probably just has something going on.
14:29They called it rest. It felt like a burial.
14:45How come you haven't left?
14:48I'm worried about you.
14:50A soft hand. A gentle voice. A viper in silk.
14:55Luke woke with a mind full of broken glass and a body he didn't recognize.
15:01The warmth beside him felt wrong. Poisonless.
15:07It was of liquor and something sweeter. More sinister.
15:11Cheating is my bottom line, Luke. It's over.
15:15No.
15:16She played the victim with practiced ease.
15:19I forced yourself on me, Luke.
15:22But Luke wasn't listening to her tears.
15:24He was listening to the echo of a warning he should have heeded.
15:28You bitch!
15:34The heat in his veins last night wasn't desire. It was chemistry.
15:39You drugged me. You and that pathetic gambling rat you call a father.
15:43And the formula was written all over her lying mouth.
15:46It was the spray.
15:48My father gave it to me.
15:51I love you, Luke. I just wanted you to want me.
15:54He saw it all now. Emma wasn't jealous. She was right. And he had traded a diamond for this film.
15:59Nothing happened. That was the lie he had to live with. But the truth...
16:04If Emma hears a whisper of this, you and your father will disappear from New York.
16:09He thought he was cleaning up a mess. He didn't realize he was just spreading the stain further.
16:27The man in the mirror was estranged. Covered in a filth that no shower could ever wash away.
16:39That bitch Olivia set me up. She drugged me.
16:44What? You slept with her?
16:47Mike was right. A woman who would use chemicals to get into his bed would use anything to stay there.
16:53If Emma hears a whisper of this, I'll make sure she and her father live worse than rats in the
16:59sour.
17:13Miss Carter said you would want these back.
17:17No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
17:20Hello? Emma?
17:24Blocked. Just like that. The woman who once answered before the first ring had built a wall out of silence.
17:32Luke, we're divorced. Where I am is none of your business.
17:37Five years of marriage. Shattered by a single reckless bet. Now, Luke Miller's world is about to burn to the
17:44ground.
17:44Emma? I didn't submit that agreement to the court. I don't agree with the divorce.
17:54The legal vitality is not determined by your unilateral will.
17:59Both parties signed, the notarization is complete, and the certificate is already effective.
18:05This is the result.
18:07That was just a joke on social media. I was angry at the time.
18:13I didn't think anyone would actually comment.
18:15A joke? Get a hundred divorce comments and I'll follow through, Luke. That was a public declaration to all our
18:21mutual friends.
18:22Where are you going? Where are you right now? Have you already found someone else? That's why you're so eager
18:27to get rid of me?
18:29Luke, at this point, you're still trying to slander me to justify your mistakes. You really disgust me.
18:39The Anderson family's pristine Long Island estate, once a symbol of wealth and power, is about to become the stage
18:46for a vicious extortion plot.
18:50Where's that bastard Luke Anderson?
18:54Jack, breaking and entering is illegal.
19:06The evidence is irrefutable. You either settle privately, pay $5 million, sign a confidential agreement, or I'll report it to
19:13the police and the media.
19:14The heir to Anderson law firm rapes a poor intern? This news will be explosive, don't you think?
19:18Extortion? Jack, do you really think your tricks will intimidate me? I need time to raise the money.
19:26Have the police waiting. No negotiation.
19:29Luke bought 24 hours. Robert used every minute. The evidence was indisputable. The extortion plot was over.
19:37The mess was cleaned up. But none of it mattered. There was only one thing on Luke's mind.
19:43I have to see her. I have to beg for her forgiveness.
19:48I have to beg for her forgiveness.
19:55I'm a bastard! Look!
19:57Humiliation is a performance. And Luke Anderson was giving the show of his life.
20:03He thought he was proving passion. He was only proving why she had left.
20:13Enough!
20:20Ian Black didn't ask questions. He removed the obstacle.
20:30Disgusting.
20:32And just like that, the past was physically removed from the premises.
20:37All that remained was the echo.
20:43The chaos of the day had faded. For the first time in a long time, Emma was no longer running
20:50from her past.
20:51She was finally building her future.
20:56I saw your light still on. Dinner time has passed. Don't ruin your stomach just because you're young.
21:07Thank you, Ian.
21:15Even if you're not hungry, you should eat.
21:18The sushi is from that place downstairs you mentioned liking.
21:22Over the past six months, your performance at the firm has exceeded expectations.
21:26That cross-bortal merger case, the opposing team of lawyers was tough.
21:29But the negotiation strategy you led was excellent.
21:32The client was very satisfied and specifically requested that you handle all future business.
21:37It's the result of the team's effort and it's you who gave me the opportunity and platform, Ian.
21:44Without your invitation back then, I might still be.
21:52Opportunities are only given to those who are prepared.
21:56Emma, it's your own ability and choices that have brought you to where you are today.
22:03It's late. Let me take you home.
22:06No need to trouble yourself. I'll just take a cab.
22:13All right.
22:14As a friend, let's also discuss next week's hearing strategy on the way.
22:21He had called her jealousy, cute.
22:24He had called her pain, dramatic.
22:27Now he was drowning in the exact same poison he had fed her for a year.
22:41A thousand words typed into the void.
22:45A thousand words she would never read.
22:56She came, not with the fire of anger, but with the cry of a woman who had already moved on.
23:03Take it. Don't stand down here. Go back and change. Don't catch a cold.
23:10He watched her walk away into a future he was no longer a part of.
23:15And in that moment, the distance between them became infinite.
23:23The words seriously involved weren't just a statement.
23:27They were the sound of the last door slamming shut.
23:31For Luke Anderson, the nightmare was only beginning.
23:45Pressure doesn't just bend steel. It bursts the strongest vessels.
23:50License. Car. Home.
23:57He sold the pieces of his past to pay for a future that had already cancelled him.
24:03Emma Carter, will you let me spend my life making you as happy as you make everyone in that courtroom?
24:10She stood at the peak cherished. He stood in the cold, forgotten.
24:14That ring. That ring. It was the life he had thrown away.
24:27While he was erasing the dirt from the pavement, she's rewriting the law.
