You Want My Ring Get On Your Knees

Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I swear you don't know the price you're about to pay.
00:00:04My father looked down at Luca and Sophia like they were nothing more than insects crawling on the floor.
00:00:09You pay the price.
00:00:10His voice stayed eerily calm, making the hall feel even colder.
00:00:14When you ordered my daughter beaten, did you ever stop to think about the price you paid?
00:00:19I'm Issa Borja, the daughter of the most powerful Don in Corvina.
00:00:23My father worries I'll marry the wrong man on a whim,
00:00:26so he arranges for me to be engaged to Luca, the rising heir of the Merino family.
00:00:30It's an arranged marriage, but that doesn't mean I've lost all my say.
00:00:34The very least I can do is choose a ring I genuinely like.
00:00:37So, I go to the mafia often.
00:00:40When the diamond ring appears as the final jewel of the night,
00:00:43I lift my paddle.
00:00:45Just before the gavel falls, an arrogant voice comes from behind me.
00:00:49A country bumplin like you thinks you can compete with me?
00:00:53Do yourself a favor.
00:00:56The auction hall goes quiet for a few seconds.
00:00:58The only sound comes from the camera shutter sticking around the hall.
00:01:02I turn and see a woman in a gold couture gown.
00:01:05Her mouth curves in a casual smile as if she owns the place.
00:01:08Before I can say a word, the auctioneer rushes to close the bid.
00:01:12Sold!
00:01:13Congratulations to Miss Sofia Lopez for winning the final lot, the Eternal Star!
00:01:18My brows are still tight, and a hot spike of anger rises in my chest.
00:01:23You ended the bidding early.
00:01:25Do you even follow the rules here?
00:01:27Sofia turns around and gives me a once-over, her gaze sharp as a blade.
00:01:31Rules?
00:01:32She lets out a cold laugh.
00:01:34Come on.
00:01:34I'm Luka Marino's favorite god sister.
00:01:37Around here, I make the rules.
00:01:40I can't help but laugh.
00:01:41What a coincidence.
00:01:43So, she's my fiancé's god sister.
00:01:45I pull out my phone and call her.
00:01:48Luka, your god sister just matched the engagement ring I picked out.
00:01:52How are you gonna handle this?
00:01:54It seemed like Sofia Lopez wasn't just a god sister to Luka Marino.
00:01:58If Luka couldn't give me a good explanation, this engagement was off the table.
00:02:03I called the number I'd saved but never once dialed.
00:02:06Once the call connected, I went straight to the point.
00:02:09Your god sister is trying to snatch the engagement ring I chose.
00:02:13What do you have to say about that?
00:02:15Silence hung for a moment.
00:02:17Then, a cold, unfamiliar voice came through the line.
00:02:20Who is this?
00:02:21Whatever's going on between Sofia and me.
00:02:24Isn't something an outsider can't request?
00:02:26Before I could say my name, he had already hung up.
00:02:29I stared at the dark screen for a second and let out into the prejudice lag.
00:02:33Obviously, he hadn't even saved my number.
00:02:36Sofia's laughter cut through the crowd.
00:02:38Sharks with smug delight.
00:02:40Pathetic.
00:02:41You somehow got Luka's number and actually think that means he knows you?
00:02:46God, you're cracking me up.
00:02:48She tilted her chin and twisted a lock of hair around her fingers while looking me over again.
00:02:54Seriously, look at what you're wearing.
00:02:56Even the nannies in the Marino family dress better than you.
00:02:59The lackeys around her couldn't hold back and burst into mocking laughter.
00:03:03I had always believed comfort mattered more than designer labels, but in a hall drowning
00:03:08in diamonds and custom gowns, no one here cared about that belief.
00:03:12I pressed my lips together, heat rising up my chest.
00:03:15So, you're still judging people by logos?
00:03:18You're unbelievably shallow.
00:03:21Luka sure had special taste when picking his god sister.
00:03:24Thanks to her stunt, I wasn't in the mood for the auction anymore.
00:03:28I turned to the auctioneer and pointed straight at the eternal star ring in the display case.
00:03:32I want to activate the automatic bidding system.
00:03:35Whatever she offers, I'll pay double.
00:03:38Miss, our automatic bidding service is reserved for clients with VIP cards.
00:03:44Sofia gave a sharp little snort.
00:03:45She reached into her clutch, pulled out a gold VIP card, and slapped it onto the podium.
00:03:50I spend seven figures a year here.
00:03:53And you?
00:03:54How exactly do you compare to me?
00:03:57I drew in a slow breath, took out a plain black card with no logo, and placed it beside
00:04:02hers.
00:04:03Unlimited credit black card.
00:04:05Is that sufficient?
00:04:07Open the VIP account and restart the bid.
00:04:11A wave of startled whispers rolled through the hall.
00:04:14Sofia's smile faded, and her tone turned colder.
00:04:17This is Marino territory.
00:04:19If anyone sides with her, I'll make sure they never work in this city again.
00:04:24The auctioneer's face went chalk white.
00:04:26His voice shook as he said,
00:04:28Miss, I'm just a staff member.
00:04:31I really can't afford to offend the Marino family.
00:04:33Several guests who'd seen the whole thing started trying to persuade me.
00:04:37Just let it go.
00:04:38I've run into Miss Lopez before.
00:04:41Mr. Martino indulges her in everything.
00:04:44Someone crossed her last month, and his entire business was gone the very next day.
00:04:48Miss, even if you've got money, don't fight the Marino family.
00:04:53Their reach isn't something people like us can survive.
00:04:56Just apologize and ask Miss Lopez to forgive you before this gets worse.
00:05:00Under all those cautious glances and hushed warnings, Sofia only grew more pleased with
00:05:06herself.
00:05:07She crossed her arms and came closer, wearing a smug smile.
00:05:10The amusement in her eyes practically sparkled.
00:05:13You heard them.
00:05:14Get on your knees and shout, I'm broke, and I know I was wrong.
00:05:19Do that, and maybe I'll let you walk out of here.
00:05:24In all 26 years of my life, no one had ever dared to talk to me like that.
00:05:28Say that again?
00:05:30What exactly do you want me to shout?
00:05:33Are you deaf?
00:05:34I said, I'm broke, and I know I was wrong.
00:05:38Got it now?
00:05:39Loud and clear.
00:05:40Since you admit you're broke, hurry up and get out of here.
00:05:44Before you drag down the Marino name.
00:05:46Sofia's face flushed as she finally realized what I'd done.
00:05:49You!
00:05:50You twisted my words!
00:05:52How dare you make fun of me!
00:05:53She screeched and hurled herself at me, arms flailing like a furious chicken.
00:05:57It would have been funny if she weren't so noisy.
00:06:00I had trained with my family's bodyguards in Corvina for 10 years.
00:06:04I wasn't about to be intimidated by a woman whose punches were nothing but a performance.
00:06:08I drove a clean sidekick into her ribs.
00:06:11Sofia went down hard, holding onto the carpet with a pained groan.
00:06:15Regret.
00:06:16Next time you open your mouth, remember whose territory you're standing on.
00:06:20Gasps rickled through the hall.
00:06:22Oh my god!
00:06:23She actually hit Mrs. Lopez!
00:06:26When Mr. Marino hears about this, he'll have her chopped up and thrown into the bay.
00:06:31She's done.
00:06:33Not even God can save her now.
00:06:35I tuned their chatter out.
00:06:36The Marino family only stood where they did today, because my father had pulled them up when they were nothing.
00:06:42In this city, there wasn't a single person I needed to be afraid of.
00:06:46I slapped my black card on the podium again.
00:06:48Like I said, whatever she bids, I'll pay double.
00:06:53Wrapped the ring and handed over.
00:06:55The auctioneer's knees visibly buckled.
00:06:57Hands shaking, he hit the authorization button and personally presented the velvet box to me.
00:07:03I put it into a bag and turned to leave.
00:07:05Only for Sofia to drag herself upright and stumble back into my path.
00:07:08Don't you dare leave!
00:07:10I tapped the toe of my heel against the floor and glanced down.
00:07:14What is it?
00:07:16You want another practical demonstration?
00:07:19She instinctively took a step back.
00:07:21I let out a soft dismissive laugh and pivoted toward the exit.
00:07:24But I didn't get far.
00:07:26A wall of men in black suits suddenly filled the doorway, blocking every way out.
00:07:31Before the guests could even process what was happening, the line of bodyguards split cleanly down the middle.
00:07:36A man walked through the gap they made.
00:07:38I looked up, and for a second my heart actually skipped.
00:07:41The overhead lights fell across him, outlining every inch of his frame.
00:07:45He had the kind of build tailors dreamed about.
00:07:48Broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs.
00:07:51His face was all sharp planes and clean edges.
00:07:53So perfect it looked like someone had carved it out of stone.
00:07:57Sofia immediately switched on the waterworks and ran to him, tears glistening.
00:08:01Luca, she stole my ring and hit me.
00:08:06So, this was my fiancé.
00:08:08No wonder my father had sworn up and down that I'd like him.
00:08:11He knew me too well.
00:08:12I was hopelessly shallow when it came to looks, and Luca fit my taste a little too perfectly.
00:08:17Seeing that face alone, I almost felt like forgiving his earlier attitude on the phone.
00:08:22I straightened, gave him my most confident smile, and introduced myself.
00:08:27Hi, I'm Issa Borgia, your fiancé.
00:08:31A ripple of shock moved through the crowd.
00:08:33What did she say?
00:08:34She's Mr. Marino's fiancé!
00:08:37Well, obviously, the fiancé matters more than a godsister.
00:08:41Not really.
00:08:42It depends on who Mr. Marino actually favors.
00:08:45Luca's cold gaze settled on me.
00:08:47Don't flatter yourself.
00:08:48That engagement was my father's decision.
00:08:51I never agreed to it.
00:08:52Sofia leaned into Luca with her head on his shoulder, her eyes sparkling with a challenge
00:08:57she wasn't bothering to hide.
00:08:58Look at you in those cheap clothes.
00:09:01You really think you deserve to marry him?
00:09:03You're not even qualified to shine my shoes.
00:09:06Someone in the crowd eagerly piled on.
00:09:09Exactly.
00:09:10If Mr. Marino ever gets married, it'll be to a real heiress.
00:09:13Why would he choose a nobody from the countryside?
00:09:17She looks dirty.
00:09:18I feel like the air smells worse already.
00:09:20She's nowhere near Miss Lopez's level.
00:09:22I'd worn something simple.
00:09:24There was nothing dirty about it.
00:09:26But in their mouths, I'd somehow turned into a walking trash heap.
00:09:30People always did love kicking whoever they thought was at the bottom.
00:09:33I lifted my eyes slowly and let my gaze sweep the entire auction hall before bringing it back
00:09:39to Luca's face.
00:09:40In that case, go home and tell your father to call off the wedding.
00:09:44And the reason?
00:09:45I don't want you.
00:09:47My father told me that Luca's father, Antonio Marino, had pulled every string he could to
00:09:52make this engagement happen.
00:09:54If he ever learned it all blew up because of Luca, I'd pay to see the look on his face.
00:09:58That thought eased my irritation.
00:10:00I couldn't be bothered arguing with this pack of idiots anymore, so I turned to leave.
00:10:05But Sophia wasn't done.
00:10:06She came stomping toward me in her stilettos like a hyena that had caught the scent of blood,
00:10:11with two bodyguards following closely behind her.
00:10:13The black pistols peeking from their holsters were enough to freeze the room.
00:10:18You bitch!
00:10:19You think you can just walk away?
00:10:21You snatched my ring and laid hands on me?
00:10:24We're not done!
00:10:25I gave her a cold look.
00:10:26So what exactly do you want to do?
00:10:28She mistook my patience for fear.
00:10:31Her hand snapped up toward my face.
00:10:33I'll hit you until I feel better!
00:10:37Before her palm could land, I caught her wrist, twisted, and slapped her across the face with
00:10:42my other hand.
00:10:42Sophia clutched her cheek, staring at me in disbelief.
00:10:45You lowlife!
00:10:47How dare you!
00:10:49Why wouldn't I?
00:10:50I cut her off, slapping her other cheek just as hard.
00:10:53Is this enough for you?
00:10:54The two slaps knocked the arrogance right off her face.
00:10:57Tears sprang to her eyes as she stumbled back and threw herself behind Luca, using him like
00:11:02a shield.
00:11:02Luca!
00:11:03She hit me!
00:11:05You have to stand up for me!
00:11:07Luca pulled her behind him and looked at me with a gaze so dark it could have dripped ink.
00:11:11How dare you slap her?
00:11:13You must really have a death wish.
00:11:15He gave his bodyguards a subtle hand signal.
00:11:18Several of the bodyguards lunged at me at the same time.
00:11:21I took down the first one who charged at me, but the rest came too fast.
00:11:25Hits rained on me from all directions.
00:11:27Pain tore through my ribs and back until my legs gave out.
00:11:31Two bodyguards grabbed me under the arms and hauled me over to Luca and Sophia.
00:11:36Luca stroked Sophia's swollen cheek and said softly,
00:11:38Do whatever you want with her.
00:11:40If anything happens, I'll take care of it.
00:11:42His words sent a spark through Sophia.
00:11:45She spat at me, her face contorting with cruel satisfaction.
00:11:49Bitch!
00:11:49Weren't you so bold just now?
00:11:52Come on, keep acting tough.
00:11:54You wanna fight me over a ring?
00:11:57Fine.
00:11:58I'll break your fingers.
00:12:00Let's see what you'll wear on them after that.
00:12:02At her nod, the two bodyguards pinned my shoulders before forcing my arm out in front of me,
00:12:07stretching my fingers over the polished floor.
00:12:09I lifted my head and stared straight at Luca and Sophia.
00:12:12If you go through with this, I swear I'll make you both pay for it.
00:12:17Sophia let out a sharp laugh.
00:12:18The Marino family is one of the five ruling houses in Norham City.
00:12:22And you?
00:12:22You're a nameless little stray from nowhere.
00:12:25You think you get to threaten us today?
00:12:27I'll make sure you never forget what happens when you cross me.
00:12:30Her stiletto drove down on my fingers and pain ripped through my hand.
00:12:33I bit down so hard I tasted blood.
00:12:36I was pretty sure I heard something crap.
00:12:38Everyone around us looked away from the violence, but no one had the courage to step in.
00:12:43She shouldn't have picked a fight with a Marino.
00:12:45Her hands are done for.
00:12:47She'll be lucky if she can even feed herself after this.
00:12:49We're just civilians.
00:12:50People like us swallow our pride or end up dead.
00:12:53I had loved the piano since I was a child.
00:12:56I would be performing on stages all around the world.
00:12:58I couldn't lose my hands.
00:13:00The thought of losing them sent a cold, strangling fear through me.
00:13:04When Sophia lifted her heel again, my resolve collapsed.
00:13:07I was wrong!
00:13:09You can have the ring!
00:13:10Take it!
00:13:11Just don't hurt my hands!
00:13:13Revenge could wait, but fingers didn't grow back.
00:13:16However, Sophia didn't pause.
00:13:18Her heel pressed down again, harder this time.
00:13:20A metallic smell rose from my bleeding hand.
00:13:23Sophia finished grinding her heel into my fingers, then squatted down, pinched my chin tightly,
00:13:28and brought her face right up to mine.
00:13:30Her mascara was a little smudged and fine lines were visible at the corners of her eyes.
00:13:35I noticed these details only because my face was pressed so close to hers.
00:13:39Do you actually think you're special?
00:13:41She whispered softly.
00:13:43As if sharing a secret.
00:13:45Let me tell you, Luca has already gone through three fiancées.
00:13:48I drove every single one of them away.
00:13:51You're the fourth, and by far the stupidest one.
00:13:54Blood seeped from the corner of my mouth, but I didn't talk back.
00:13:58It wasn't because I didn't dare it, was because I had no strength left.
00:14:01My right hand had already gone completely numb.
00:14:04I didn't dare look at it.
00:14:05That's right.
00:14:07Sophia laughed, her voice full of malice.
00:14:09The first one was dumped by him.
00:14:10The second left on her own.
00:14:12And the third, I personally made her disappear.
00:14:16Her eyes changed, turning dark and sinister.
00:14:19How long do you think you can hold on?
00:14:21She stood up and coldly ordered the bodyguard.
00:14:24Pin her other hand down too?
00:14:25Today I'm going to crush both of her hands.
00:14:29Let's see how she seduces after this!
00:14:31You bitch!
00:14:33Oh, now you're scared.
00:14:36Too late for that.
00:14:38You're not leaving this place until I say so.
00:14:42A scream tore out of my throat.
00:14:44I turned my head to Luca.
00:14:46Luca, aren't you afraid of who I am?
00:14:50If you let her do this, you'll regret it.
00:14:54Who are you?
00:14:55You're nothing.
00:14:57Just a woman who tricked my father.
00:14:59Sophia saw his reaction, and her smile grew even more vicious.
00:15:04You're still trying to seduce Luca while I'm right here.
00:15:07If I don't break your hands, you'll never learn.
00:15:11No!
00:15:12Ah!
00:15:13Don't!
00:15:13Just then, my phone rang from inside my bag.
00:15:16I struggled against the men holding me trying to reach for it, but Sophia moved faster.
00:15:21She grabbed the phone, glanced at the screen, and answered it with a cold laugh.
00:15:26My father's voice came through at once, tight with worry.
00:15:29Isa, why aren't you home yet?
00:15:33Is the auction still going?
00:15:35I dragged in a breath, and shouted as loudly as I could.
00:15:38Papa, help me!
00:15:39They're going to destroy my hands!
00:15:42My father's voice went cold in an instant.
00:15:45What?
00:15:45Who is this?
00:15:46Sophia shouted into the phone.
00:15:48I'm Sophia Lopez.
00:15:49Your daughter's been acting like a slut with men, so I'm teaching her a lesson!
00:15:55I don't care who you are.
00:15:56Let my daughter go.
00:15:57Touch her again, and you'll wish you'd never been born.
00:16:00If you've got the guts, come over here.
00:16:03Her heel slammed into my hand once more, and I couldn't hold back a cry.
00:16:06I'm right here waiting.
00:16:09I'll break her hands first and let you hear it, and when you get here, I'll break yours too.
00:16:14She hung up and slammed my phone to the floor.
00:16:17It shattered into pieces.
00:16:19Then, she ordered the men around us to beat me.
00:16:22Five minutes passed.
00:16:22It wasn't long on a clock, but it felt like half a lifetime.
00:16:26At last, a familiar armored black sedan rolled to a stop outside the auction hall.
00:16:31The air itself seemed to tighten.
00:16:32My father stepped out of the car, his black coat still carrying the faint scent of gunpowder
00:16:37and blood.
00:16:42I swear, you don't know the price you're about to pay.
00:16:46My father looked down at Luca and Sophia like they were nothing more than insects crawling
00:16:50on the floor.
00:16:51You didn't pay the price.
00:16:52His voice stayed eerily calm, making the hall feel even colder.
00:16:56When you ordered my daughter beaten, did you ever stop to think about the price you paid?
00:17:01I'm Issa Borgia, the daughter of the most powerful Don in Corvina.
00:17:05My father worries I'll marry the wrong man on a whim, so he arranges for me to be engaged
00:17:10to Luca, the rising heir of the Marino family.
00:17:13It's an arranged marriage, but that doesn't mean I've lost all my say.
00:17:16The very least I can do is choose a ring I genuinely like.
00:17:20So, I go to the mafia auction.
00:17:22When the diamond ring appears as the final jewel of the night, I lift my paddle.
00:17:27Just before the gavel falls, an arrogant voice comes from behind me.
00:17:31A country bumplin like you thinks you can compete with me?
00:17:35Do yourself a favor.
00:17:37The auction hall goes quiet for a few seconds.
00:17:40The only sound comes from the camera shutters sticking around the hall.
00:17:44I turn and see a woman in a gold couture gown.
00:17:47Her mouth curbs in a casual smile as if she owns the place.
00:17:50Before I can say a word, the auctioneer rushes to close the bid.
00:17:54Sold!
00:17:55Congratulations to Miss Sofia Lopez for winning the final lot, the Eternal Star!
00:18:00My brows fill tight, and a hot spike of anger rises in my chest.
00:18:05You ended the bidding early.
00:18:07Do you even follow the rules here?
00:18:09Sofia turns around and gives me a once-over, her gaze sharp as a blade.
00:18:13Rule?
00:18:14She lets out a cold laugh.
00:18:16Come on!
00:18:17I'm Luca Marino's favorite god sister.
00:18:20Around here, I make the rules.
00:18:22I can't help but laugh.
00:18:23What a coincidence!
00:18:25So, she's my fiancé's god sister.
00:18:27I pull out my phone and call her.
00:18:30Luca, your god sister just matched the engagement ring I picked out.
00:18:34How are you gonna handle this?
00:18:36It seemed like Sofia Lopez wasn't just a god sister to Luca Marino.
00:18:40If Luca couldn't give me a good explanation, this engagement was off the table.
00:18:45I called the number I'd saved but never once dialed.
00:18:48Once the call connected, I went straight to the point.
00:18:51Your god sister is trying to snatch the engagement ring I chose.
00:18:55What do you have to say about that?
00:18:57Silence hung for a moment.
00:18:59Then, a cold, unfamiliar voice came through the line.
00:19:02Who is this?
00:19:03Whatever's going on between Sofia and me isn't something an outsider must request.
00:19:08Before I could say my name, he had already hung up.
00:19:11I stared at the dark screen for a second and let out in a credulous laugh.
00:19:15Obviously, he hadn't even saved my number.
00:19:18Sofia's laughter cut through the crowd.
00:19:20Sharks with smug delight.
00:19:22Just better.
00:19:22You somehow got Luca's number and actually think that means he knows you?
00:19:28God, you're cracking me up.
00:19:30She tilted her chin and twisted a lock of hair around her fingers while looking me over again.
00:19:36Seriously, look at what you're wearing.
00:19:38Even the nannies in the Marino family dress better than you.
00:19:41The lackeys around her couldn't hold back and burst into mocking laughter.
00:19:45I had always believed comfort mattered more than designer labels.
00:19:49But in a hall drowning in diamonds and custom gowns, no one here cared about that belief.
00:19:54I pressed my lips together, heat rising up my chest.
00:19:57So, you're still judging people by logos?
00:20:00You're unbelievably shallow.
00:20:03Luca sure had special taste when picking his god sister.
00:20:07Thanks to her stunt, I wasn't in the mood for the auction anymore.
00:20:10I turned to the auctioneer and pointed straight at the eternal star ring in the display case.
00:20:14I want to activate the automatic bidding system.
00:20:16Whatever she offers, I'll pay double.
00:20:21Miss, our automatic bidding service is reserved for clients with VIP cards.
00:20:26Sophia gave a sharp little snort.
00:20:27She reached into her clutch, pulled out a gold VIP card, and slapped it onto the podium.
00:20:32I spend seven figures a year here.
00:20:35And you?
00:20:37How exactly do you compare to me?
00:20:39I drew in a slow breath, took out a plain black card with no logo, and placed it beside hers.
00:20:45Unlimited credit black card.
00:20:48Is that sufficient?
00:20:49Open the VIP account and restart the bid.
00:20:52A wave of startled whispers rolled through the hall.
00:20:56Sophia's smile faded and her tone turned colder.
00:20:59This is Marino territory.
00:21:01If anyone sides with her, I'll make sure they never work in this city again.
00:21:06The auctioneer's face went chalk white.
00:21:08His voice shook as he said,
00:21:10Miss, I'm just a staff member.
00:21:13I really can't afford to offend the Marino family.
00:21:15Several guests who'd seen the whole thing started trying to persuade me.
00:21:19Just let it go.
00:21:21I've run into Miss Lopez before.
00:21:23Mr. Martino indulges her in everything.
00:21:26Someone crossed her last month, and his entire business was gone the very next day.
00:21:31Miss, even if you've got money, don't fight the Marino family.
00:21:35Their reach isn't something people like us can survive.
00:21:38Just apologize and ask Miss Lopez to forgive you before this gets worse.
00:21:43Under all those cautious glances and hushed warnings,
00:21:46Sophia only grew more pleased with herself.
00:21:49She crossed her arms and came closer, wearing a smug smile.
00:21:53The amusement in her eyes practically sparkled.
00:21:55You heard them.
00:21:56Get on your knees and shout,
00:21:58I'm broke, and I know I was wrong.
00:22:01Do that, and maybe I'll let you walk out of here.
00:22:06In all 26 years of my life, no one had ever dared to talk to me like that.
00:22:10Say that again?
00:22:12What exactly do you want me to shout?
00:22:15Are you deaf?
00:22:16I said, I'm broke, and I know I was wrong.
00:22:20Got it now?
00:22:21Loud and clear.
00:22:22Since you admit you're broke, hurry up and get out of here.
00:22:26Before you drag down the Marino name.
00:22:28Sophia's face flushed as she finally realized what I'd done.
00:22:31You!
00:22:32You twisted my words!
00:22:34How dare you make fun of me!
00:22:35She screeched and hurled herself at me, arms flailing like a furious chicken.
00:22:39It would have been funny if she weren't so noisy.
00:22:42I had trained with my family's bodyguards in Corvina for 10 years.
00:22:46I wasn't about to be intimidated by a woman whose punches were nothing but a performance.
00:22:50I drove a clean sidekick into her ribs.
00:22:53Sophia went down hard, holding onto the carpet with a pained groan.
00:22:57Regret.
00:22:58Next time you open your mouth, remember whose territory you're standing on.
00:23:03Gasps rippled through the hall.
00:23:04Oh my god!
00:23:05She actually hit Mrs. Lopez!
00:23:08When Mr. Marino hears about this, he'll have her chopped up and thrown into the bay.
00:23:13She's done.
00:23:15Not even God can save her now.
00:23:17I tuned their chatter out.
00:23:18The Marino family only stood where they did today, because my father had pulled them up
00:23:23when they were nothing.
00:23:24In this city, there wasn't a single person I needed to be afraid of.
00:23:28I slapped my black card on the podium again.
00:23:31Like I said, whatever she bids, I'll pay double.
00:23:35Wrapped the ring and hand it over.
00:23:37The auctioneer's knees visibly buckled.
00:23:39Hands shaking, he hit the authorization button and personally presented the velvet box to me.
00:23:45I put it into a bag and turned to leave.
00:23:47Only for Sophia to drag herself upright and stumble back into my path.
00:23:51Don't you dare leave!
00:23:53I tapped the toe of my heel against the floor and glanced down.
00:23:57What is it?
00:23:58You want another practical demonstration?
00:24:01She instinctively took a step back.
00:24:03I let out a soft dismissive laugh and pivoted toward the exit.
00:24:06But I didn't get far.
00:24:08A wall of men in black suits suddenly filled the doorway, blocking every way out.
00:24:13Before the guests could even process what was happening,
00:24:15the line of bodyguards split cleanly down the middle.
00:24:18A man walked through the gap they made.
00:24:20I looked up and for a second my heart actually skipped.
00:24:23The overhead lights fell across him, outlining every inch of his frame.
00:24:27He had the kind of build tailors dreamed about.
00:24:30Broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs.
00:24:33His face was all sharp planes and clean edges.
00:24:35So perfect it looked like someone had carved it out of stone.
00:24:38Sofia immediately switched on the waterworks and ran to him, tears glistening.
00:24:43Luca, she stole my ring and hit me.
00:24:48So, this was my fiancé.
00:24:50No wonder my father had sworn up and down that I'd like him.
00:24:53He knew me too well.
00:24:54I was hopelessly shallow when it came to looks,
00:24:57and Luca fit my taste a little too perfectly.
00:25:00Seeing that face alone, I almost felt like forgiving his earlier attitude on the phone.
00:25:04I straightened, gave him my most confident smile, and introduced myself.
00:25:09Hi, I'm Issa Borgia, your fiancé.
00:25:13A ripple of shock moved through the crowd.
00:25:15What did she say?
00:25:16She's Mr. Marino's fiancé!
00:25:19Well, obviously, the fiancé matters more than a godsister.
00:25:23Not really.
00:25:24It depends on who Mr. Marino actually favors.
00:25:27Luca's cold gaze settled on me.
00:25:29Don't flatter yourself.
00:25:31That engagement was my father's decision.
00:25:33I never agreed to it.
00:25:35Sophia leaned into Luca with her head on his shoulder,
00:25:37her eyes sparkling with a challenge she wasn't bothering to hide.
00:25:40Look at you in those cheap clothes.
00:25:43You really think you deserve to marry him?
00:25:46You're not even qualified to shine my shoes.
00:25:48Someone in the crowd eagerly piled on.
00:25:51Exactly.
00:25:52If Mr. Marino ever gets married, it'll be to a real heiress.
00:25:56Why would he choose a nobody from the countryside?
00:25:58She looks dirty.
00:26:00I feel like the air smells worse already.
00:26:02She's nowhere near Ms. Lopez's level.
00:26:05I'd worn something simple.
00:26:06There was nothing dirty about it.
00:26:08But in their mouths, I'd somehow turned into a walking trash heap.
00:26:12People always did love kicking whoever they thought was at the bottom.
00:26:15I lifted my eyes slowly and let my gaze sweep the entire auction hall before bringing it back to Luca's
00:26:21face.
00:26:22In that case, go home and tell your father to call off the wedding.
00:26:26And the reason?
00:26:28I don't want you.
00:26:29My father told me that Luca's father, Antonio Marino, had pulled every string he could to make this engagement happen.
00:26:36If he ever learned it all blew up because of Luca, I'd pay to see the look on his face.
00:26:40That thought eased my irritation.
00:26:42I couldn't be bothered arguing with this pack of idiots anymore, so I turned to leave.
00:26:47But Sophia wasn't done.
00:26:48She came stomping toward me in her stilettos like a hyena that had caught the scent of blood, with two
00:26:53bodyguards following closely behind her.
00:26:55The black pistols peeking from their holsters were enough to freeze the room.
00:27:00You bitch!
00:27:01You think you can just walk away?
00:27:03You snatched my ring and laid hands on me?
00:27:06We're not done!
00:27:07I gave her a cold look.
00:27:08So what exactly do you want to do?
00:27:10She mistook my patience for fear.
00:27:12Her hand snapped up toward my face.
00:27:15I'll hit you until I feel better!
00:27:19Before her palm could land, I caught her wrist, twisted, and slapped her across the face with my other hand.
00:27:25Sophia clutched her cheek, staring at me in disbelief.
00:27:27You lowlife! How dare you!
00:27:31Why wouldn't I?
00:27:32I cut her off, slapping her other cheek just as hard.
00:27:35Is this enough for you?
00:27:36The two slaps knocked the arrogance right off her face.
00:27:39Tears sprang to her eyes as she stumbled back and threw herself behind Luca, using him like a shield.
00:27:44Luca! She hit me! You have to stand up for me!
00:27:49Luca pulled her behind him and looked at me with a gaze so dark it could have dripped ink.
00:27:53How dare you slap her? You must really have a death wish.
00:27:57He gave his bodyguards a subtle hand signal.
00:28:00Several of the bodyguards lunged at me at the same time.
00:28:03I took down the first one who charged at me, but the rest came too fast.
00:28:07Hits rained on me from all directions.
00:28:09Pain tore through my ribs and back until my legs gave out.
00:28:13Two bodyguards grabbed me under the arms and hauled me over to Luca and Sophia.
00:28:18Luca stroked Sophia's swollen cheek and said softly,
00:28:21Do whatever you want with her. If anything happens, I'll take care of it.
00:28:24His words sent a spark through Sophia. She spat at me, her face contorting with cruel satisfaction.
00:28:31Bitch! Weren't you so bold just now? Come on, keep acting tough.
00:28:36You want to fight me over a ring? Fine. I'll break your fingers. Let's see what you'll wear on them
00:28:43after that.
00:28:44At her nod, the two bodyguards pinned my shoulders before forcing my arm out in front of me, stretching my
00:28:49fingers over the polished floor.
00:28:51I lifted my head and stared straight at Luca and Sophia.
00:28:55If you go through with this, I swear I'll make you both pay for it.
00:28:59Sophia let out a sharp laugh.
00:29:00The Marino family is one of the five ruling houses in Norham City.
00:29:04And you? You're a nameless little stray from nowhere.
00:29:07You think you get to threaten us today?
00:29:09I'll make sure you never forget what happens when you cross me.
00:29:12Her stiletto drove down on my fingers and pain ripped through my hand.
00:29:16I bit down so hard I tasted blood.
00:29:18I was pretty sure I heard something crap.
00:29:20Everyone around us looked away from the violence, but no one had the courage to step in.
00:29:25She shouldn't have picked a fight with a Marino.
00:29:27Her hands are done for.
00:29:29She'll be lucky if she can even feed herself after this.
00:29:31We're just civilians. People like us swallow our pride or end up dead.
00:29:35I had loved the piano since I was a child.
00:29:38I would be performing on stages all around the world.
00:29:40I couldn't lose my hands.
00:29:42The thought of losing them sent a cold, strangling fear through me.
00:29:45When Sophia lifted her heel again, my resolve collapsed.
00:29:49I was wrong! You can have the ring! Take it! Just don't hurt my hands!
00:29:55Revenge could wait, but fingers didn't grow back.
00:29:58However, Sophia didn't pause.
00:30:00Her heel pressed down again, harder this time.
00:30:02A metallic smell rose from my bleeding hand.
00:30:05Sophia finished grinding her heel into my fingers,
00:30:08then squatted down, pinched my chin tightly, and brought her face right up to mine.
00:30:12Her mascara was a little smudged, and fine lines were visible at the corners of her eyes.
00:30:17I noticed these details only because my face was pressed so close to hers.
00:30:22Do you actually think you're special?
00:30:24She whispered softly, as if sharing a secret.
00:30:26Let me tell you, Luca has already gone through three fiancées.
00:30:30I drove every single one of them away.
00:30:33You're the fourth, and by far the stupidest one.
00:30:36Blood seeped from the corner of my mouth, but I didn't talk back.
00:30:40It wasn't because I didn't dare it, it was because I had no strength left.
00:30:43My right hand had already gone completely numb.
00:30:46I didn't dare look at it.
00:30:47That's right.
00:30:49Sophia laughed, her voice full of malice.
00:30:51The first one was dumped by him.
00:30:53The second left on her own.
00:30:54And the third?
00:30:55I personally made her disappear.
00:30:58Her eyes changed, turning dark and sinister.
00:31:01How long do you think you can hold on?
00:31:03She stood up and coldly ordered the bodyguard.
00:31:06Pin her other hand down too?
00:31:07Today I'm going to crush both of her hands.
00:31:11Let's see how she seduces after this!
00:31:14You bitch!
00:31:15Oh, now you're scared.
00:31:18Too late for that.
00:31:20You're not leaving this place until I say so.
00:31:24A scream tore out of my throat.
00:31:26I turned my head to Luca.
00:31:28Luca, aren't you afraid of who I am?
00:31:31If you let her do this, you'll regret it.
00:31:36Who are you?
00:31:37You're nothing.
00:31:39Just a woman who tricked my father.
00:31:41Sophia saw his reaction, and her smile grew even more vicious.
00:31:46You're still trying to seduce Luca.
00:31:48While I'm right here.
00:31:50If I don't break your hands, you'll never learn.
00:31:53No!
00:31:54Ah!
00:31:55Don't!
00:31:55Just then, my phone rang from inside my bag.
00:31:58I struggled against the men holding me trying to reach for it, but Sophia moved faster.
00:32:03She grabbed the phone, glanced at the screen, and answered it with a cold laugh.
00:32:08My father's voice came through at once, tight with worry.
00:32:11Isa, why aren't you home yet?
00:32:15Is the auction still going?
00:32:17I dragged in a breath, and shouted as loudly as I could.
00:32:20Papa, help me!
00:32:21They're going to destroy my hands!
00:32:24My father's voice went cold in an instant.
00:32:26What?
00:32:27Who is this?
00:32:28Sophia shouted into the phone.
00:32:30I'm Sophia Lopez.
00:32:31Your daughter's been acting like a slut with men, so I'm teaching her a lesson!
00:32:37I don't care who you are.
00:32:38Let my daughter go.
00:32:39Touch her again, and you'll wish you'd never been born.
00:32:42If you've got the guts, come over here.
00:32:45Her heel slammed into my hand once more, and I couldn't hold back a cry.
00:32:49I'm right here waiting.
00:32:50I'll break her hands first and let you hear it, and when you get here, I'll break yours
00:32:56too.
00:32:56She hung up and slammed my phone to the floor.
00:32:59It shattered into pieces.
00:33:01Then, she ordered the men around us to beat me.
00:33:04Five minutes passed.
00:33:05It wasn't long on a clock, but it felt like half a lifetime.
00:33:08At last, a familiar armored black sedan rolled to a stop outside the auction hall.
00:33:13The air itself seemed to tighten.
00:33:14My father stepped out of the car, his black coat still carrying the faint scent of gunpowder
00:33:19and blood.
00:33:24I swear, you don't know the price you're about to pay.
00:33:28My father looked down at Luca and Sophia like they were nothing more than insects crawling
00:33:32on the floor.
00:33:33Pay the price.
00:33:34His voice stayed eerily calm, making the hall feel even colder.
00:33:38When you ordered my daughter beaten, did you ever stop to think about the price you paid?
00:33:43I'm Isa Borgia, the daughter of the most powerful Don in Cravina.
00:33:47My father worries I'll marry the wrong man on a whim, so he arranges for me to be engaged
00:33:52to Luca, the rising heir of the Marino family.
00:33:55It's an arranged marriage, but that doesn't mean I've lost all my say.
00:33:59The very least I can do is choose a ring I genuinely like.
00:34:02So, I go to the mafia auction.
00:34:04When the diamond ring appears as the final jewel of the night, I lift my paddle.
00:34:09Just before the gavel falls, an arrogant voice comes from behind me.
00:34:13A country bumpin' like you thinks you can compete with me?
00:34:17Do yourself a favor.
00:34:20The auction hall goes quiet for a few seconds.
00:34:23The only sound comes from the camera shutters clicking around the hall.
00:34:26I turn and see a woman in a gold couture gown.
00:34:29Her mouth curbs in a casual smile as she owns the place.
00:34:32Before I can say a word, the auctioneer rushes to close the bid.
00:34:36Sold!
00:34:37Congratulations to Miss Sofia Lopez for winning the final lot, the Eternal Star.
00:34:42My brows fill tight, and a hot spike of anger rises in my chest.
00:34:47You ended the bidding early.
00:34:49Do you even follow the rules here?
00:34:51Sofia turns around and gives me a once-over, her gaze sharp as a blade.
00:34:55Rules?
00:34:56She lets out a cold laugh.
00:34:58Come on.
00:34:58I'm Luca Marino's favorite god sister.
00:35:01Around here, I make the rules.
00:35:04I can't help but laugh.
00:35:05What a coincidence.
00:35:07So, she's my fiancé's god sister.
00:35:09I pull out my phone and call her.
00:35:12Luca, your god sister just matched the engagement ring I picked out.
00:35:16How are you gonna handle this?
00:35:18It seemed like Sofia Lopez wasn't just a god sister to Luca Marino.
00:35:22If Luca couldn't give me a good explanation, this engagement was off the table.
00:35:26I called the number I'd saved, but never once dialed.
00:35:30Once the call connected, I went straight to the point.
00:35:33Your god sister is trying to snatch the engagement ring I chose.
00:35:37What do you have to say about that?
00:35:39Silence hung for a moment.
00:35:41Then, a cold, unfamiliar voice came through the line.
00:35:44Who is this?
00:35:45Whatever is going on between Sofia and me isn't something an outsider can't request.
00:35:50Before I could say my name, he had already hung up.
00:35:53I stared at the dark screen for a second and let out in his prejudiced laugh.
00:35:57Obviously, he hadn't even saved my number.
00:36:01Sofia's laughter cut through the crowd.
00:36:02Sharks with smug delight.
00:36:04Just bet it.
00:36:05You somehow got Luca's number and actually think that means he knows you?
00:36:10God, you're cracking me up.
00:36:13She tilted her chin and twisted a lock of hair around her fingers while looking me over again.
00:36:18Seriously, look at what you're wearing.
00:36:20Even the nannies in the Marino family dress better than you.
00:36:23The lackeys around her couldn't hold back and burst into mocking laughter.
00:36:27I had always believed comfort mattered more than designer labels.
00:36:31But in a hall drowning in diamonds and custom gowns, no one here cared about that belief.
00:36:36I pressed my lips together, heat rising up my chest.
00:36:39So, you're still judging people by logos?
00:36:42You're unbelievably shallow.
00:36:45Luca sure had special taste when picking his god sister.
00:36:49Thanks to her stunt, I wasn't in the mood for the auction anymore.
00:36:52I turned to the auctioneer and pointed straight at the eternal star ring in the display case.
00:36:56I want to activate the automatic bidding system.
00:36:59Whatever she offers, I'll pay double.
00:37:03Miss, our automatic bidding service is reserved for clients with VIP cards.
00:37:08Sophia gave a sharp little snort.
00:37:10She reached into her clutch, pulled out a gold VIP card and slapped it onto the podium.
00:37:15I spend seven figures a year here.
00:37:17And you?
00:37:19How exactly do you compare to me?
00:37:21I drew in a slow breath, took out a plain black card with no logo
00:37:25and placed it beside hers.
00:37:27Unlimited credit black card.
00:37:30Is that sufficient?
00:37:31Open the VIP account and restart the bid.
00:37:34A wave of startled whispers rolled through the hall.
00:37:38Sophia's smile faded and her tone turned colder.
00:37:41This is Marino territory.
00:37:43If anyone sides with her, I'll make sure they never work in this city again.
00:37:48The auctioneer's face went chalk white.
00:37:50His voice shook as he said,
00:37:52Miss, I'm just a staff member.
00:37:55I really can't afford to offend the Marino family.
00:37:57Several guests who'd seen the whole thing started trying to persuade me.
00:38:01Just let it go.
00:38:02I've run into Miss Lopez before.
00:38:05Mr. Martino indulges her in everything.
00:38:08Someone crossed her last month and his entire business was gone the very next day.
00:38:12Miss, even if you've got money, don't fight the Marino family.
00:38:17Their reach isn't something people like us can survive.
00:38:20Just apologize and ask Miss Lopez to forgive you before this gets worse.
00:38:25Under all those cautious glances and hushed warnings,
00:38:28Sophia only grew more pleased with herself.
00:38:31She crossed her arms and came closer, wearing a smug smile.
00:38:35The amusement in her eyes practically sparkled.
00:38:37You heard them.
00:38:38Get on your knees and shout,
00:38:40I'm broke and I know I was wrong.
00:38:44Do that.
00:38:45And maybe I'll let you walk out of here.
00:38:48In all 26 years of my life,
00:38:50no one had ever dared to talk to me like that.
00:38:52Say that again?
00:38:54What exactly do you want me to shout?
00:38:57Are you deaf?
00:38:58I said, I'm broke and I know I was wrong.
00:39:02Got it now?
00:39:03Loud and clear.
00:39:04Since you admit you're broke,
00:39:06hurry up and get out of here.
00:39:08Before you dragged down the Marino name.
00:39:11Sophia's face flushed as she finally realized what I'd done.
00:39:14You!
00:39:14You twisted my words!
00:39:16How dare you make fun of me!
00:39:17She screeched and hurled herself at me,
00:39:19arms flailing like a furious chicken.
00:39:22It would have been funny if she weren't so noisy.
00:39:24I had trained with my family's bodyguards in Corvina for 10 years.
00:39:28I wasn't about to be intimidated by a woman whose punches were nothing but a performance.
00:39:32I drove a clean sidekick into her ribs.
00:39:35Sophia went down hard, holding onto the carpet with a pained groan.
00:39:39Regret.
00:39:40Next time you open your mouth, remember whose territory you're standing on.
00:39:45Gasps rippled through the hall.
00:39:46Oh my god!
00:39:47She actually hit Mrs. Lopez!
00:39:50When Mr. Marino hears about this, he'll have her chopped up and thrown into the bay.
00:39:55She's done.
00:39:57Not even God can save her now.
00:39:59I tuned their chatter out.
00:40:00The Marino family only stood where they did today,
00:40:03because my father had pulled them up when they were nothing.
00:40:06In this city, there wasn't a single person I needed to be afraid of.
00:40:10I slapped my black card on the podium again.
00:40:13Like I said,
00:40:14whatever she bids,
00:40:16I'll pay double.
00:40:17Wrap the ring and hand it over.
00:40:19The auctioneer's knees visibly buckled.
00:40:21Hands shaking,
00:40:23he hit the authorization button and personally presented the velvet box to me.
00:40:27I put it into a bag and turned to leave.
00:40:29Only for Sophia to drag herself upright and stumble back into my path.
00:40:33Don't you dare leave!
00:40:35I tapped the toe of my heel against the floor and glanced down.
00:40:39What is it?
00:40:40You want another practical demonstration?
00:40:43She instinctively took a step back.
00:40:45I let out a soft dismissive laugh and pivoted toward the exit.
00:40:49But I didn't get far.
00:40:50A wall of men in black suits suddenly filled the doorway,
00:40:53blocking every way out.
00:40:55Before the guests could even process what was happening,
00:40:57the line of bodyguards split cleanly down the middle.
00:41:00A man walked through the gap they made.
00:41:02I looked up, and for a second my heart actually skipped.
00:41:05The overhead lights fell across him,
00:41:07outlining every inch of his frame.
00:41:09He had the kind of build tailors dreamed about.
00:41:12Broad shoulders,
00:41:13narrow waist,
00:41:14long legs.
00:41:15His face was all sharp planes and clean edges.
00:41:17So perfect it looked like someone had carved it out of stone.
00:41:21Sophia immediately switched on the waterworks and ran to him,
00:41:24tears glistening.
00:41:25Luca, she stole my ring!
00:41:29And hit me!
00:41:30So, this was my fiancé.
00:41:32No wonder my father had sworn up and down that I'd like him.
00:41:35He knew me too well.
00:41:36I was hopelessly shallow when it came to looks,
00:41:39and Luca fit my taste a little too perfectly.
00:41:42Seeing that face alone,
00:41:43I almost felt like forgiving his earlier attitude on the phone.
00:41:46I straightened,
00:41:47gave him my most confident smile,
00:41:49and introduced myself.
00:41:51Hi, I'm Isa Borgia,
00:41:53your fiancé.
00:41:55A ripple of shock moved through the crowd.
00:41:57What did she say?
00:41:58She's Mr. Marino's fiancé!
00:42:01Well, obviously,
00:42:02the fiancé matters more than a godsister.
00:42:05Not really.
00:42:06It depends on who Mr. Marino actually favors.
00:42:09Luca's cold gaze settled on me.
00:42:11Don't flatter yourself.
00:42:13That engagement was my father's decision.
00:42:15I never agreed to it.
00:42:17Sophia leaned into Luca with her head on his shoulder,
00:42:19her eyes sparkling with a challenge she wasn't bothering to hide.
00:42:22Look at you in those cheap clothes.
00:42:25You really think you deserve to marry him?
00:42:28You're not even qualified to shine my shoes.
00:42:30Someone in the crowd eagerly piled on.
00:42:33Exactly.
00:42:33If Mr. Marino ever gets married,
00:42:36it'll be to a real heiress.
00:42:38Why would he choose a nobody from the countryside?
00:42:41She looks dirty.
00:42:42I feel like the air smells worse already.
00:42:45She's nowhere near Miss Lopez's level.
00:42:47I'd worn something simple.
00:42:48There was nothing dirty about it.
00:42:50But in their mouths,
00:42:51I'd somehow turned into a walking trash heap.
00:42:54People always did love kicking whoever they thought was at the bottom.
00:42:57I lifted my eyes slowly and let my gaze sweep the entire auction hall before bringing it back to Luca's
00:43:03face.
00:43:04In that case,
00:43:05go home and tell your father to call off the wedding.
00:43:08And the reason?
00:43:10I don't want you.
00:43:11My father told me that Luca's father,
00:43:14Antonio Marino,
00:43:15had pulled every string he could to make this engagement happen.
00:43:18If he ever learned it all blew up because of Luca,
00:43:20I'd pay to see the look on his face.
00:43:22That thought eased my irritation.
00:43:25I couldn't be bothered arguing with this pack of idiots anymore,
00:43:28so I turned to leave.
00:43:29But Sofia wasn't done.
00:43:30She came stomping toward me in her stilettos like a hyena that had caught the scent of blood,
00:43:35with two bodyguards following closely behind her.
00:43:38The black pistols peeking from their holsters were enough to freeze the room.
00:43:42You bitch!
00:43:43You think you can just walk away?
00:43:45You snatched my ring and laid hands on me?
00:43:48We're not done!
00:43:49I gave her a cold look.
00:43:51So what exactly do you want to do?
00:43:52She mistook my patience for fear.
00:43:55Her hand snapped up toward my face.
00:43:57I'll hit you until I feel better!
00:44:01Before her palm could land, I caught her wrist,
00:44:04twisted, and slapped her across the face with my other hand.
00:44:07Sofia clutched her cheek, staring at me in disbelief.
00:44:09You lowlife!
00:44:11How dare you!
00:44:13Why wouldn't I?
00:44:14I cut her off, slapping her other cheek just as hard.
00:44:17Is this enough for you?
00:44:18The two slaps knocked the arrogance right off her face.
00:44:21Tears sprang to her eyes as she stumbled back and threw herself behind Luca,
00:44:25using him like a shield.
00:44:26Luca!
00:44:27She hit me!
00:44:29You have to stand up for me!
00:44:31Luca pulled her behind him and looked at me with a gaze so dark it could have dripped ink.
00:44:36How dare you slap her?
00:44:37You must really have a death wish.
00:44:39He gave his bodyguards a subtle hand signal.
00:44:42Several of the bodyguards lunged at me at the same time.
00:44:45I took down the first one who charged at me, but the rest came too fast.
00:44:49Hits rained on me from all directions.
00:44:51Pain tore through my ribs and back until my legs gave out.
00:44:55Two bodyguards grabbed me under the arms and hauled me over to Luca and Sophia.
00:45:00Luca stroked Sophia's swollen cheek and said softly,
00:45:03Do whatever you want with her.
00:45:04If anything happens, I'll take care of it.
00:45:06His words sent a spark through Sophia.
00:45:09She spat at me, her face contorting with cruel satisfaction.
00:45:13Bitch!
00:45:13Weren't you so bold just now?
00:45:16Come on.
00:45:17Keep acting tough.
00:45:19You want to fight me over a ring?
00:45:21Fine.
00:45:22I'll break your fingers.
00:45:24Let's see what you'll wear on them after that.
00:45:26At her nod, the two bodyguards pinned my shoulders before forcing my arm out in front of me,
00:45:31stretching my fingers over the polished floor.
00:45:33I lifted my head and stared straight at Luca and Sophia.
00:45:36Sophia, if you go through with this, I swear I'll make you both pay for it.
00:45:41Sophia let out a sharp laugh.
00:45:42The Marino family is one of the five ruling houses in Norham City.
00:45:46And you?
00:45:47You're a nameless little stray from nowhere.
00:45:49You think you get to threaten us today?
00:45:51I'll make sure you never forget what happens when you cross me.
00:45:54Her stiletto drove down on my fingers and pain ripped through my hand.
00:45:58I bit down so hard I tasted blood.
00:46:00I was pretty sure I heard something crap.
00:46:02Everyone around us looked away from the violence, but no one had the courage to step in.
00:46:07She shouldn't have picked a fight with a Marino.
00:46:09Her hands are done for.
00:46:11She'll be lucky if she can even feed herself after this.
00:46:13We're just civilians.
00:46:15People like us swallow our pride or end up dead.
00:46:17I had loved the piano since I was a child.
00:46:20I would be performing on stages all around the world.
00:46:23I couldn't lose my hands.
00:46:24The thought of losing them sent a cold, strangling fear through me.
00:46:28When Sophia lifted her heel again, my resolve collapsed.
00:46:31I was wrong!
00:46:33You can have the ring!
00:46:34Take it!
00:46:35Just don't hurt my hands!
00:46:37Revenge could wait, but fingers didn't grow back.
00:46:40However, Sophia didn't pause.
00:46:42Her heel pressed down again, harder this time.
00:46:45A metallic smell rose from my bleeding hand.
00:46:47Sophia finished grinding her heel into my fingers, then squatted down, pinched my chin tightly,
00:46:52and brought her face right up to mine.
00:46:54Her mascara was a little smudged, and fine lines were visible at the corners of her eyes.
00:46:59I noticed these details only because my face was pressed so close to hers.
00:47:04Do you actually think you're special?
00:47:06She whispered softly, as if sharing a secret.
00:47:09Let me tell you, Luca has already gone through three fiancées.
00:47:13I drove every single one of them away.
00:47:15You're the fourth, and by far the stupidest one.
00:47:18Blood seeped from the corner of my mouth, but I didn't talk back.
00:47:22It wasn't because I didn't dare it, was because I had no strength left.
00:47:25My right hand had already gone completely numb.
00:47:28I didn't dare look at it.
00:47:30That's right.
00:47:31Sophia laughed, her voice full of malice.
00:47:33The first one was dumped by him.
00:47:35The second left on her own.
00:47:36And the third?
00:47:37I personally made her disappear.
00:47:40Her eyes changed, turning dark and sinister.
00:47:43How long do you think you can hold on?
00:47:45She stood up and coldly ordered the bodyguard.
00:47:48Pin her other hand down too?
00:47:50Today I'm going to crush both of her hands.
00:47:52Let's see how she seduces after this!
00:47:56You bitch!
00:47:57Oh, now you're scared.
00:48:00Too late for that.
00:48:03You're not leaving this place until I say so.
00:48:06A scream tore out of my throat.
00:48:08I turned my head to Luca.
00:48:10Luca, aren't you afraid of who I am?
00:48:14If you let her do this, you'll regret it.
00:48:18Who are you?
00:48:19You're nothing.
00:48:21Just a woman who tricked my father.
00:48:23Sophia saw his reaction, and her smile grew even more vicious.
00:48:28You're still trying to seduce Luca while I'm right here.
00:48:32If I don't break your hands, you'll never learn.
00:48:35No!
00:48:36Ah!
00:48:37Don't!
00:48:37Just then, my phone rang from inside my bag.
00:48:40I struggled against the men holding me trying to reach for it, but Sophia moved faster.
00:48:45She grabbed the phone, glanced at the screen, and answered it with a cold laugh.
00:48:50My father's voice came through at once, tight with worry.
00:48:53Isa, why aren't you home yet?
00:48:57Is the auction still going?
00:48:59I dragged in a breath, and shouted as loudly as I could.
00:49:02Papa, help me!
00:49:04They're going to destroy my hands!
00:49:06My father's voice went cold in an instant.
00:49:09What?
00:49:09Who is this?
00:49:10Sophia shouted into the phone.
00:49:12I'm Sophia Lopez.
00:49:14Your daughter's been acting like a slut with men, so I'm teaching her a lesson!
00:49:19I don't care who you are.
00:49:20Let my daughter go.
00:49:22Touch her again, and you'll wish you'd never been born.
00:49:25If you've got the guts, come over here.
00:49:27Her heel slammed into my hand once more, and I couldn't hold back a cry.
00:49:30I'm right here waiting.
00:49:33I'll break her hands first and let you hear it, and when you get here, I'll break yours
00:49:38too.
00:49:38She hung up and slammed my phone to the floor.
00:49:41It shattered into pieces.
00:49:43Then, she ordered the men around us to beat me.
00:49:46Five minutes passed.
00:49:47It wasn't long on a clock, but it felt like half a lifetime.
00:49:50At last, a familiar armored black sedan rolled to a stop outside the auction hall.
00:49:54The air itself seemed to tighten.
00:49:56My father stepped out of the car, his black coat still carrying the faint scent of gunpowder
00:50:01and blood.
00:50:06I swear, you don't know the price you're about to pay.
00:50:10My father looked down at Luca and Sophia like they were nothing more than insects crawling
00:50:14on the floor.
00:50:15Pay the price.
00:50:17His voice stayed eerily calm, making the hall feel even colder.
00:50:20When you ordered my daughter beaten, did you ever stop to think about the price you paid?
00:50:25I'm Issa Borgia, the daughter of the most powerful dawn in Corvina.
00:50:29My father worries I'll marry the wrong man on a whim, so he arranges for me to be engaged
00:50:34to Luca, the rising heir of the Merino family.
00:50:37It's an arranged marriage, but that doesn't mean I've lost all my say.
00:50:41The very least I can do is choose a ring I genuinely like.
00:50:43So, I go to the mafia auction.
00:50:46When the diamond ring appears as the final jewel of the night, I lift my paddle.
00:50:51Just before the gavel calls, an arrogant voice comes from behind me.
00:50:55A country bumpin' like you thinks you can compete with me?
00:50:59Do yourself a favor.
00:51:02The auction hall goes quiet for a few seconds.
00:51:05The only sound comes from the camera shutters clicking around the hall.
00:51:08I turn and see a woman in a gold couture gown.
00:51:11Her mouth curbs in a casual smile as if she owns the place.
00:51:15Before I can say a word, the auctioneer rushes to close the booth.
00:51:18Sold!
00:51:19Congratulations to Miss Sofia Lopez for winning the final lot, the Eternal Star!
00:51:24My brows feel tight, and a hot spike of anger rises in my chest.
00:51:29You ended the bidding early.
00:51:31Do you even follow the rules here?
00:51:33Sofia turns around and gives me a once-over, her gaze sharp as a blade.
00:51:37Rule?
00:51:38She lets out a cold laugh.
00:51:40Come on!
00:51:41I'm Luca Marino's favorite god sister.
00:51:44Around here, I make the rules.
00:51:46I can't help but laugh.
00:51:47What a coincidence.
00:51:49So, she's my fiancé's god sister.
00:51:52I pull out my phone and call her.
00:51:54Luca, your god sister just matched the engagement ring I picked out.
00:51:58How are you gonna handle this?
00:52:00It seemed like Sofia Lopez wasn't just a god sister to Luca Marino.
00:52:05If Luca couldn't give me a good explanation, this engagement was off the table.
00:52:09I called the number I'd saved but never once dialed.
00:52:12Once the call connected, I went straight to the point.
00:52:15Your god sister is trying to snatch the engagement ring I chose.
00:52:19What do you have to say about that?
00:52:21Silence hung for a moment.
00:52:23Then, a cold, unfamiliar voice came through the line.
00:52:26Who is this?
00:52:27Whatever is going on between Sofia and me isn't something an outsider can steal away.
00:52:32Before I could say my name, he had already hung up.
00:52:35I stared at the dark screen for a second and let out in his prejudiced laugh.
00:52:39Obviously, he hadn't even saved my number.
00:52:43Sofia's laughter cut through the crowd.
00:52:45Sharks with smug delight.
00:52:46It's better.
00:52:47You somehow got Luca's number and actually think that means he knows you?
00:52:53God, you're cracking me up.
00:52:55She tilted her chin and twisted a lock of hair around her fingers while looking me over again.
00:53:00Seriously, look at what you're wearing.
00:53:02Even the nannies in the Marino family dress better than you.
00:53:06The lackeys around her couldn't hold back and burst into mocking laughter.
00:53:09I had always believed comfort mattered more than designer labels.
00:53:13But in a hall drowning in diamonds and custom gowns, no one here cared about that belief.
00:53:18I pressed my lips together, heat rising up my chest.
00:53:21So, you're still judging people by logos?
00:53:24You're unbelievably shallow.
00:53:27Luca sure had special taste when picking his god sister.
00:53:31Thanks to her stunt, I wasn't in the mood for the auction anymore.
00:53:34I turned to the auctioneer and pointed straight at the eternal star ring in the display case.
00:53:38I want to activate the automatic bidding system.
00:53:41Whatever she offers, I'll pay double.
00:53:45Miss, our automatic bidding service is reserved for clients with VIP cards.
00:53:50Sophia gave a sharp little snort.
00:53:52She reached into her clutch, pulled out a gold VIP card, and slapped it onto the podium.
00:53:57I spend seven figures a year here.
00:53:59And you?
00:54:01How exactly do you compare to me?
00:54:03I drew in a slow breath, took out a plain black card with no logo,
00:54:07and placed it beside hers.
00:54:09Unlimited credit black card.
00:54:12Is that sufficient?
00:54:13Open the VIP account and restart the bid.
00:54:17A wave of startled whispers rolled through the hall.
00:54:20Sophia's smile faded, and her tone turned colder.
00:54:23This is Marino territory.
00:54:25If anyone sides with her, I'll make sure they never work in this city again.
00:54:30The auctioneer's face went chalk white.
00:54:32His voice shook as he said,
00:54:34Miss, I'm just a staff member.
00:54:37I really can't afford to offend the Marino family.
00:54:39Several guests who'd seen the whole thing started trying to persuade me.
00:54:43Just let it go.
00:54:44I've run into Miss Lopez before.
00:54:47Mr. Martino indulges her in everything.
00:54:50Someone crossed her last month, and his entire business was gone the very next day.
00:54:55Miss, even if you've got money, don't fight the Marino family.
00:54:59Their reach isn't something people like us can survive.
00:55:01Just apologize and ask Miss Lopez to forgive you before this gets worse.
00:55:07Under all those cautious glances and hushed warnings,
00:55:10Sophia only grew more pleased with herself.
00:55:13She crossed her arms and came closer, wearing a smug smile.
00:55:17The amusement in her eyes practically sparkled.
00:55:19You heard them.
00:55:20Get on your knees and shout.
00:55:22I'm broke, and I know I was wrong.
00:55:26Do that, and maybe I'll let you walk out of here.
00:55:30In all 26 years of my life, no one had ever dared to talk to me like that.
00:55:34Say that again?
00:55:36What exactly do you want me to shout?
00:55:39Are you deaf?
00:55:40I said, I'm broke, and I know I was wrong.
00:55:44Got it now?
00:55:45Loud and clear.
00:55:46Since you admit you're broke, hurry up and get out of here.
00:55:50Before you drag down the Marino name.
00:55:53Sophia's face flushed as she finally realized what I'd done.
00:55:56You!
00:55:56You twisted my words!
00:55:58How dare you make fun of me!
00:55:59She screeched and hurled herself at me, arms flailing like a furious chicken.
00:56:04It would have been funny if she weren't so noisy.
00:56:06I had trained with my family's bodyguards in Corvina for 10 years.
00:56:10I wasn't about to be intimidated by a woman whose punches were nothing but a performance.
00:56:15I drove a clean sidekick into her ribs.
00:56:17Sophia went down hard, folding onto the carpet with a pained groan.
00:56:21Regret.
00:56:22Next time you open your mouth, remember whose territory you're standing on.
00:56:27Gasps rickled through the hall.
00:56:28Oh my god!
00:56:30She actually hit Mrs. Lopez!
00:56:32When Mr. Marino hears about this, he'll have her chopped up and thrown into the bay.
00:56:37She's done.
00:56:39Not even God can save her now.
00:56:41I tuned their chatter out.
00:56:42The Marino family only stood where they did today, because my father had pulled them up when they were nothing.
00:56:48In this city, there wasn't a single person I needed to be afraid of.
00:56:52I slapped my black card on the podium again.
00:56:55Like I said, whatever she bids, I'll pay double.
00:57:00Wrap the ring and hand it over.
00:57:01The auctioneer's knees visibly buckled.
00:57:04Hands shaking, he hit the authorization button and personally presented the velvet box to me.
00:57:09I put it into a bag and turned to leave, only for Sophia to drag herself upright and stumble back
00:57:14into my path.
00:57:15Don't you dare leave!
00:57:17I tapped the toe of my heel against the floor and glanced down.
00:57:21What is it?
00:57:22You want another practical demonstration?
00:57:25She instinctively took a step back.
00:57:27I let out a soft dismissive laugh and pivoted toward the exit.
00:57:31But I didn't get far.
00:57:32A wall of men in black suits suddenly filled the doorway, blocking every way out.
00:57:37Before the guests could even process what was happening, the line of bodyguards split cleanly down the middle.
00:57:42A man walked through the gap they made.
00:57:44I looked up, and for a second my heart actually skipped.
00:57:47The overhead lights fell across him, outlining every inch of his frame.
00:57:51He had the kind of build tailors dreamed about.
00:57:54Broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs.
00:57:57His face was all sharp planes and clean edges.
00:57:59So perfect it looked like someone had carved it out of stone.
00:58:03Sophia immediately switched on the waterworks and ran to him, tears glistening.
00:58:07Luca, she stole my ring and hit me.
00:58:12So, this was my fiancé.
00:58:14No wonder my father had sworn up and down that I'd like him.
00:58:17He knew me too well.
00:58:18I was hopelessly shallow when it came to looks, and Luca fit my taste a little too perfectly.
00:58:24Seeing that face alone, I almost felt like forgiving his earlier attitude on the phone.
00:58:28I straightened, gave him my most confident smile, and introduced myself.
00:58:33Hi, I'm Isa Borgia, your fiancé.
00:58:37A ripple of shock moved through the crowd.
00:58:39What did she say?
00:58:40She's Mr. Marino's fiancé!
00:58:43Well, obviously, the fiancé matters more than a godsister.
00:58:47Not really.
00:58:48It depends on who Mr. Marino actually favors.
00:58:51Luca's cold gaze settled on me.
00:58:54Don't flatter yourself.
00:58:55That engagement was my father's decision.
00:58:57I never agreed to it.
00:58:59Sophia leaned into Luca with her head on his shoulder,
00:59:01her eyes sparkling with a challenge she wasn't bothering to hide.
00:59:04Look at you in those cheap clothes.
00:59:07You really think you deserve to marry him?
00:59:10You're not even qualified to shine my shoes.
00:59:12Someone in the crowd eagerly piled on.
00:59:15Exactly.
00:59:16If Mr. Marino ever gets married, it'll be to a real heiress.
00:59:20Why would he choose a nobody from the countryside?
00:59:23She looks dirty.
00:59:24I feel like the air smells worse already.
00:59:27She's nowhere near Ms. Lopez's level.
00:59:29I'd worn something simple.
00:59:30There was nothing dirty about it.
00:59:32But in their mouths, I'd somehow turned into a walking trash heap.
00:59:36People always did love kicking whoever they thought was at the bottom.
00:59:40I lifted my eyes slowly and let my gaze sweep the entire auction hall before bringing it back
00:59:45to Luca's face.
00:59:46In that case, go home and tell your father to call off the wedding.
00:59:50And the reason?
00:59:52I don't want you.
00:59:54My father told me that Luca's father, Antonio Marino,
00:59:57had pulled every string he could to make this engagement happen.
01:00:00If he ever learned it all blew up because of Luca,
01:00:02I'd pay to see the look on his face.
01:00:05That thought eased my irritation.
01:00:07I couldn't be bothered arguing with this pack of idiots anymore,
01:00:10so I turned to leave.
01:00:11But Sophia wasn't done.
01:00:12She came stomping toward me in her stilettos like a hyena that had caught the scent of blood,
01:00:17with two bodyguards following closely behind her.
01:00:20The black pistols peeking from their holsters were enough to freeze the room.
01:00:24You bitch!
01:00:25You think you can just walk away?
01:00:27You snatched my ring and laid hands on me?
01:00:30We're not done!
01:00:31I gave her a cold look.
01:00:33So what exactly do you want to do?
01:00:35She mistook my patience for fear.
01:00:37Her hand snapped up toward my face.
01:00:39I'll hit you until I feel better!
01:00:43Before her palm could land, I caught her wrist,
01:00:46twisted, and slapped her across the face with my other hand.
01:00:49Sophia clutched her cheek, staring at me in disbelief.
01:00:52You lowlife!
01:00:53How dare you!
01:00:55Why wouldn't I?
01:00:56I cut her off, slapping her other cheek just as hard.
01:00:59Is this enough for you?
01:01:00The two slaps knocked the arrogance right off her face.
01:01:03Tears sprang to her eyes as she stumbled back and threw herself behind Luca, using him like a shield.
01:01:08Luca!
01:01:10She hit me!
01:01:11You have to stand up for me!
01:01:13Luca pulled her behind him and looked at me with a gaze so dark it could have dripped ink.
01:01:18How dare you slap her?
01:01:19You must really have a death wish.
01:01:22He gave his bodyguards a subtle hand signal.
01:01:24Several of the bodyguards lunged at me at the same time.
01:01:27I took down the first one who charged at me, but the rest came too fast.
01:01:31Hits rained on me from all directions.
01:01:33Pain tore through my ribs and back until my legs gave out.
01:01:37Two bodyguards grabbed me under the arms and hauled me over to Luca and Sophia.
01:01:42Luca stroked Sophia's swollen cheek and said softly,
01:01:44Do whatever you want with her.
01:01:46If anything happens, I'll take care of it.
01:01:49His words sent a spark through Sophia.
01:01:51She spat at me, her face contorting with cruel satisfaction.
01:01:55Bitch!
01:01:56Weren't you so bold just now?
01:01:58Come on.
01:01:59Keep acting tough.
01:02:00You wanna fight me over a ring?
01:02:03Fine.
01:02:04I'll break your fingers.
01:02:06Let's see what you'll wear on them after that.
01:02:08At her nod, the two bodyguards pinned my shoulders before forcing my arm out in front of me,
01:02:13stretching my fingers over the polished floor.
01:02:15I lifted my head and stared straight at Luca and Sophia.
01:02:18If you go through with this, I swear I'll make you both pay for it.
01:02:23Sophia let out a sharp laugh.
01:02:24The Marino family is one of the five ruling houses in Norham City.
01:02:28And you?
01:02:29You're a nameless little stray from nowhere.
01:02:31You think you get to threaten us today?
01:02:33I'll make sure you never forget what happens when you cross me.
01:02:36Her stiletto drove down on my fingers and pain ripped through my hand.
01:02:40I bit down so hard I tasted blood.
01:02:42I was pretty sure I heard something crack.
01:02:45Everyone around us looked away from the violence, but no one had the courage to step in.
01:02:49She shouldn't have picked a fight with a Marino.
01:02:51Her hands are done for.
01:02:53She'll be lucky if she can even feed herself after this.
01:02:55We're just civilians.
01:02:57People like us swallow our pride or end up dead.
01:02:59I had loved the piano since I was a child.
01:03:02I would be performing on stages all around the world.
01:03:05I couldn't lose my hands.
01:03:06The thought of losing them sent a cold, strangling fear through me.
01:03:10When Sophia lifted her heel again, my resolve collapsed.
01:03:13I was wrong!
01:03:15You can have the ring!
01:03:16Take it!
01:03:17Just don't hurt my hands!
01:03:19Revenge could wait, but fingers didn't grow back.
01:03:22However, Sophia didn't pause.
01:03:24Her heel pressed down again, harder this time.
01:03:26A metallic smell rose from my bleeding hand.
01:03:29Sophia finished grinding her heel into my fingers, then squatted down, pinched my chin tightly,
01:03:34and brought her face right up to mine.
01:03:36Her mascara was a little smudged and fine lines were visible at the corners of her eyes.
01:03:41I noticed these details only because my face was pressed so close to hers.
01:03:46Do you actually think you're special?
01:03:48She whispered softly, as if sharing a secret.
01:03:51Let me tell you, Luca has already gone through three fiancés.
01:03:54I drove every single one of them away.
01:03:57You're the fourth, and by far the stupidest one.
01:04:00Blood seeped from the corner of my mouth, but I didn't talk back.
01:04:04It wasn't because I didn't dare it, it was because I had no strength left.
01:04:08My right hand had already gone completely numb.
01:04:10I didn't dare look at it.
01:04:12That's right.
01:04:13Sophia laughed, her voice full of malice.
01:04:15The first one was dumped by him.
01:04:17The second left on her own.
01:04:18And the third, I personally made her disappear.
01:04:22Her eyes changed, turning dark and sinister.
01:04:25How long do you think you can hold on?
01:04:27She stood up and coldly ordered the bodyguard.
01:04:30Pin her other hand down too?
01:04:32Today I'm going to crush both of her hands.
01:04:35Let's see how she seduces after this!
01:04:37You bitch!
01:04:39Oh, now you're scared.
01:04:43Too late for that.
01:04:45You're not leaving this place until I say so.
01:04:48A scream tore out of my throat.
01:04:50I turned my head to Luca.
01:04:52Luca, aren't you afraid of who I am?
01:04:56If you let her do this, you'll regret it.
01:05:00Who are you?
01:05:01You're nothing.
01:05:03Just a woman who tricked my father.
01:05:06Sophia saw his reaction, and her smile grew even more vicious.
01:05:10You're still trying to seduce Luca while I'm right here.
01:05:14If I don't break your hands, you'll never learn.
01:05:17No!
01:05:18Ah!
01:05:19Don't!
01:05:19Just then, my phone rang from inside my bag.
01:05:22I struggled against the men holding me trying to reach for it, but Sophia moved faster.
01:05:27She grabbed the phone, glanced at the screen, and answered it with a cold laugh.
01:05:31My father's voice came through at once, tight with worry.
01:05:36Iza, why aren't you home yet?
01:05:39Is the auction still going?
01:05:41I dragged in a breath, and shouted as loudly as I could.
01:05:44Papa, help me!
01:05:46They're going to destroy my hands!
01:05:48My father's voice went cold in an instant.
01:05:51What?
01:05:51Who is this?
01:05:52Sophia shouted into the phone.
01:05:54I'm Sophia Lopez.
01:05:56Your daughter's been acting like a slut with men, so I'm teaching her a lesson!
01:06:01I don't care who you are.
01:06:02Let my daughter go.
01:06:04Touch her again, and you'll wish you'd never been born.
01:06:07If you've got the guts, come over here.
01:06:09Her heel slammed into my hand once more, and I couldn't hold back a cry.
01:06:13I'm right here waiting.
01:06:15I'll break her hands first and let you hear it, and when you get here, I'll break yours too.
01:06:20She hung up and slammed my phone to the floor.
01:06:23It shattered into pieces.
01:06:25Then, she ordered the men around us to beat me.
01:06:28Five minutes passed.
01:06:29It wasn't long on a clock, but it felt like half a lifetime.
01:06:32At last, a familiar armored black sedan rolled to a stop outside the auction hall.
01:06:37The air itself seemed to tighten.
01:06:38My father stepped out of the car, his black coat still carrying the faint scent of gunpowder and blood.
01:06:46He ate a hat for other people.
01:06:46Yeah, it was more fun than the way having hands first started.
01:06:47Now he's going to defeat me just to hear you.
01:06:48You
