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

24:42spare me
24:44Charlotte was
24:45terrified
24:49no please

25:18you'd protect me
25:19you saved Amelia
25:20so you have to
25:21save me too
25:24Ethan froze
25:25for a moment
25:27he looked at me
25:31his eyes were filled
25:32with conflict
25:33and hesitation
25:37Charlotte had come
25:38between us
25:40but I had never
25:41once questioned him
25:42no matter how much
25:43Ethan doubted
25:44or grew impatient
25:45with me
25:46that was until today
25:50I thought he chose
25:52Charlotte over me
25:53because she manipulated
25:54him
25:54I did not expect
25:56that even after
25:57finding out the
25:58whole truth
25:58he would hesitate
25:59to choose between
26:00us
26:02my father sneered

26:10how dare you
26:11ask me for help
26:12stop
26:13a life for a life
26:15we're even
26:16I took a deep breath
26:18and stopped him
26:26papa that's enough
26:34Amelia
26:35I knew it
26:37I knew you'd
26:38forgive me
26:40stop

26:42we're even
26:43I spared Charlotte
26:45for you
26:46from now on
26:47we have nothing
26:49to do with each other
26:50Ethan froze in place
26:53what did you just say
26:54at that moment
26:55the Reese family's
26:57medical car screeched
26:58to a stop
26:58at the entrance
26:59of the party
26:59my father lifted me
27:01into his arms
27:02and said to the
27:02remaining mafia members
27:05deal with everyone here
27:06but remember
27:07my daughters are his orders
27:09spare their lives
27:11then
27:12he carried me out
27:13of the party
27:14without another word
27:16Ethan tried to chase
27:18after us
27:18no
27:19Amelia
27:20you know I love you
27:21the most
27:21don't leave me
27:30I already gave you
27:31one chance
27:31my daughter needs
27:32to be treated
27:33if you keep bothering
27:34us
27:35I'll destroy the
27:35rolling stones
27:36completely
27:46behind him
27:47my father's men
27:48were taking care
27:48of Charlotte
27:49and her friends
27:49they were pushed
27:50into a tub
27:51full of champagne
27:52they felt the
27:53suffocating panic
27:54I had just experienced
28:06they were nearly drowned
28:07before someone
28:08finally pulled
28:09them out
28:10Charlotte
28:11was drenched
28:12she wrapped
28:13her arms
28:14around herself
28:15and ran
28:15to Ethan
28:16sobbing
28:20Ethan
28:21they want to
28:21pull all my teeth
28:23my father knows
28:25I offended
28:25the Reese family
28:26but he doesn't
28:27even care
28:27to plead
28:28for me
28:31you have to
28:32save me
28:33in Ethan's mind
28:34Charlotte came
28:34from a better
28:35family than I did
28:36she was also
28:37more generous
28:37and considerate
28:38he once thought
28:39that if Charlotte
28:39were his fiance
28:40he might not
28:41have struggled
28:41so much
28:42in a relationship
28:42but he quickly
28:43dismissed the thought
28:44with a wise smile
28:49he knew the only
28:50person he had
28:51ever really loved
28:52was me
28:53he thought I did
28:54not come from
28:55a good family
28:55my career had not
28:57been that impressive
28:58I did not match
29:00his social standing
29:04still he humbled
29:05himself and set
29:06aside Hood
29:07his pride
29:08to love me
29:09Charlotte had
29:09mocked me
29:10in front of his
29:11friends many times
29:12she said I was
29:13not worth his love
29:14and he was foolish
29:15to chase after me
29:17he had been a fool
29:19not to realize
29:19that someone
29:20as perfect as
29:21Charlotte would
29:22want to hurt me
29:24he had been
29:25witless enough
29:26to trust her
29:27completely
29:28and lose me
29:29forever
29:29he stared at the
29:31car as it vanished
29:32and ignored
29:33Charlotte and her
29:34sobs
29:34he opened his
29:35mouth to speak
29:36but he could not
29:37utter a word
29:38finally
29:38a tear rolled
29:40down from his
29:41bloodshot eyes
29:44back at the
29:45Reese family
29:46villa
29:46under my
29:47father's care
29:48and the medical
29:49team's attention
29:49I quickly
29:50recovered
29:52the scars on
29:53my hands
29:53faded into
29:54faint lines
29:55returning home
29:56after three years
29:57I felt a wave
29:58of emotion
30:07since I was
30:08little
30:09my father
30:10had always
30:10worried about
30:11my heart
30:11condition
30:12when he learned
30:13I wanted to be
30:14an actress
30:15he feared
30:16my body
30:17would not be
30:17able to
30:18handle it
30:18and strongly
30:19opposed
30:21I had been
30:21obedient all
30:22my life
30:24but I once
30:24found the courage
30:25to run away
30:26in the middle
30:26of the night
30:29after meeting
30:30Ethan
30:30I hid my
30:32identity
30:32because I was
30:33afraid my
30:33father would
30:34find out
30:38it was not
30:38until the day
30:39before Charlotte's
30:40promotion party
30:41that I overheard
30:42her talking to
30:43Ethan
30:43I learned that
30:45the Rolling Stones
30:45success was because
30:47of my father's
30:47support
30:48Amelia
30:49I'll support you

31:24Ethan Cross
31:42Ethan came alone
31:43he carried a small
31:45gun
31:45he had no men
31:46with him and did
31:47not hurt anyone
31:48he deliberately
31:49smashed things around
31:50the Reese family
31:51territory and waited
31:52for my father's men
31:53to catch him
31:54and take him
31:54back to the villa
31:56his goal was clear
31:57he wanted to see me
32:03my father round
32:04slightly and looked
32:05at me

32:25my father and the men
32:26looked surprised by my tone
32:28one of them paused
32:29and asked
32:31Prince De Pesa
32:32don't you want to see him
32:34I raised an eyebrow
32:36and continued folding
32:37my clothes
32:38what for
32:39I'm leaving for my surgery
32:40tomorrow
32:41I need to pack
32:41make sure he pays
32:43ten times in cash

32:45even a single cent
32:47my father and the men
32:48exchanged glances
32:49and smiled
32:57I boarded the plane
32:58as planned
33:00everything for the surgery
33:01went smoothly
33:02on the day of the surgery
33:04the sky was clear
33:05and bright
33:07the sunlight felt
33:08like a promise
33:08of a better future
33:16I took a deep breath
33:18as I was wheeled
33:19into the operating room
33:20the ensnesialist
33:22gave me the medicine
33:22and left the room
33:25the surgery would begin
33:27once the surgeon
33:28was ready
33:30I took slow
33:31deep breaths
33:32closed my eyes
33:33and hoped
33:34I would wake up
33:35to a new life
33:38before I lost consciousness
33:40a nurse suddenly
33:41ran into the room
33:44she pulled down
33:45her mask
33:45to reveal
33:46the scarred
33:46twisted face
33:48it was Charlotte
33:50after I returned
33:51to the Reese family
33:52villa
33:53I had heard
33:53what had happened
33:54to her
33:54she infended
33:55the Reese family
33:56her sewn family
33:57abandoned her completely
33:58she had on the vials
33:59hair always looked
34:00bright and charming
34:01but inside
34:02she was cruel
34:03and twisted
34:04her former victims
34:05found out
34:06that she had become
34:06an outcast
34:07and had also
34:08lost one of her hands
34:09they came after her
34:10for revenge
34:11even Ethan
34:12for some reason
34:13ignored her completely
34:19well well
34:20you finally fell
34:22into my hands
34:23desperate and ruined
34:25Charlotte moved
34:26from place to place
34:27in the red light district
34:28she sold her body
34:30constantly for food
34:31one day
34:33she argued
34:33with another woman
34:34over a client
34:35and angered
34:36the local thugs
34:44after that
34:45she vanished
34:46without a trace
34:51I never thought
34:52she would show up
34:53in my operating room
34:59well well
35:01well well
35:01you finally fell
35:02into my hands

35:06were worth it
35:16all of this
35:18is your fault
35:19I'll make you suffer
35:20I wanted to scream
35:22I wanted to scream
35:22but the anesthesia
35:23kept me from moving
35:24sleep overtook me faster
35:25and tears streamed
35:27down my face
35:28I did not want
35:29to die like this
35:32Amelia hurry
35:33somebody help
35:39damn it
35:39how are you always
35:41this lucky
35:41go to hell
35:42Charlotte panicked
35:43she grabbed a scalpel
35:44and aimed for my heart
35:50yeah
35:51it's okay now
35:53a blurry figure
35:54a blurry figure
35:54leapt forward
35:55and kicked
35:55Charlotte away
35:56Charlotte
35:57acting like a madman
35:59jumped up again
35:59and swung the scalpel
36:01at me
36:04Amelia
36:07the figure threw himself
36:09around me
36:09and shielded me
36:10the knife
36:11pierced his body
36:12and he let out
36:13a low groan
36:15when the scalpel
36:16struck his heart
36:17I finally saw
36:19Ethan's face
36:19the next moment
36:21the anesthesia
36:22took over
36:22and I slowly
36:24closed my eyes
36:29when the doctors
36:30and security
36:31rushed into
36:31the operating room
36:32Ethan finally
36:33allowed himself
36:34a relieved smile
36:35blood spurted
36:36from his mouth
36:40yeah
36:42it's okay now
36:43when I woke up
36:45my heart surgery
36:46had been completed
36:46successfully
36:47I opened my eyes
36:49to see my father
36:49crying with joy
36:50I knew my new life
36:52had really began
36:56because of the attack
36:57before
36:58three rows
36:59of Reese family guards
37:00surrounded my hospital room
37:03but that was
37:04unnecessary
37:04the Reese family
37:06issued a bounty
37:06against her
37:07and her family
37:08spending the rest
37:09of her life
37:10in prison
37:10was almost
37:11a relief for her
37:17I thought of Ethan
37:18who had taken
37:19the blow for me
37:21one quiet night
37:22my father walked
37:23to the window
37:23and gently opened it
37:25Amelia
37:26come here
37:26look at the moon
37:32I stood up
37:33and walked over
37:34the night breeze
37:35was cool
37:38in the garden below
37:39among the shadows
37:40of the trees
37:40I saw a familiar figure
37:42leaning on a cane
37:43wearing the same
37:44hospital gown as me
37:46he was staring up
37:47at my window
37:47the moment our eyes
37:49met
37:49he froze
37:50then quickly retreated
37:51into the darkness
37:52my father sighed softly
37:54that boy is lucky
37:55the scalpel missed his heart
37:56by less than a centimeter
37:58the doctors say
37:59he may develop
37:59heart problems
38:00in the future
38:01he'll suffer
38:02when it blames up
38:03I saved him
38:05you're not angry
38:06are you
38:06he glanced at me
38:08cautiously
38:09I looked at the
38:10empty garden
38:11for a few seconds
38:12then reached out
38:13and slowly closed
38:14the window
38:14why would I be angry
38:18he saved my life
38:19once
38:19and now we're even
38:22from now on
38:26we have nothing
38:26to do with each other
38:29the next morning
38:30a nurse came in
38:31to change my IV
38:34Mr. Ethan discharged
38:35himself late last night
38:36he said he couldn't
38:38bear to stay here
38:39any longer
38:42my father brought
38:43breakfast in person
38:46security reported
38:47he stood in the garden
38:47until dawn
38:50I lowered my eyes
38:52stirred the oatmeal
38:53gently
38:53and said nothing
39:02three months later
