Short filmTranscript
00:00I had a fever and was lying in bed, dreaming. The dream was scenes from a past life.
00:05My husband held Sophie. He threw divorce papers at me and kicked me out the door.
00:10I was taken away by the police and put in jail, where four female inmates beat me up.
00:15The Roman family's daughter? Here? You are trash.
00:22I woke up in a cold sweat and shot upright. My hand pressed my stomach. Checking. No cuts. No
00:29blood. I'm the Roman family's daughter. The hottest tempered woman in New York high society.
00:34I have never given my arranged husband Alex a kind look. If he came home a minute late,
00:39I'd smash his limited edition sports car to pieces. A bad fever brought back memories of my past life.
00:45I absolutely can't go to jail. From today I'm going to be Alex's most attentive,
00:50most well-behaved wife. Even if it's just an act, I'll play it all the way until he's so in
00:55love
00:55with me, even his legacy belongs to me.
01:00Alex was leaving for London today for a meeting. Before, I would have tipped over his suitcase and
01:05hidden his passport to force him to go shopping with me. But today, I didn't. I stood in the
01:10doorway of the walk-in closet and watched Alex tie his tie. He heard footsteps and glanced at me in
01:15the full-length mirror. What's up? I put on a gentle smile and padded over in slippers.
01:22Let me help you with your tie, sweetheart.
01:28You called me what?
01:31Sweetheart.
01:31I blinked, trying to look as innocent as possible. I reached out and took the dark pattern tie from
01:36his hand. I clumsily looped it around his neck. I tied a sloppy knot, then padded his chest with
01:42satisfaction. Eat on time in London. Your stomach's bad. Come back early. I'll wait at home.
01:50Alex lifted his hand and felt my forehead.
01:53Fever made you stupid?
01:55No. I just suddenly felt I was too harsh before. I'll make it up to you.
02:01Alex's expression went dark in an instant. He stared at me.
02:06Scarlet, what do you really want? That 100 million yacht? I've already told my assistant
02:12to handle the paperwork. If you want anything else, just put it on my card. Don't do this act.
02:18There was the familiar tired indulgence in his voice. In my past life, that was the sign he was
02:22about to grow tired of me. I don't want anything! I just want you safe and everything to go smoothly.
02:27Then I kissed his face. Alex looked shocked. He stared at me, then grabbed his briefcase and
02:34walked out of the bedroom in long strides. I watched his back and let out a long sigh.
02:40Step 1. Complete success. Even if he isn't used to it now, in time, he'll fall in love with me.
02:47The gentle, caring wife. A message from my best friend Grace popped up.
02:52Scarlet, check Insta right now! Sophie's on her bullshit again.
02:56I opened the screenshot Grace sent. The photo was taken in the Mitchell group lobby on the first
03:02floor. No matter how the world misunderstands you, I'll always have your back. She'd also
03:06staged a photo of a soup container. Sophie was an orphan adopted by Mitchell's relatives and was
03:13Alex's cousin. In my last life, she used this trick, always so understanding, always gentle and
03:19attentive. That made me look like the unreasonable, nagging one. Grace called, furious.
03:26That little bitch is clearly provoking you. Get to the office and dump that bowl of soup on her
03:30head. Make a scene? That was exactly what she wanted. I just end up looking crazy in Alex's eyes
03:36again. Then I commented, thanks, sis, for worrying about my husband. His stomach's bad, you're so
03:44thoughtful. After I sent it, I tossed my phone aside. I got up and washed my face. Sophie, you really
03:51want
03:51to play that game? I'll show you who the final boss is. I grabbed an insulated food container and showed
03:56up at the Mitchell group executive office. Everyone in the secretarial area gasped. I usually came to
04:02the company in 10 centimeter heels and sunglasses. Madam, what are you doing here? Mr. Mitchell is in
04:08the reception room. Miss Sophie is there too. No problem. I'll wait for him. I walked straight to
04:14the reception room door and pushed it open. Scarlett, don't get me wrong. I just thought Alex has been
04:28so tired lately. Ant's worried, so I made some soup and brought it over. I'll leave right away. Please don't
04:33be mad at Alex. It's all my fault. In my last life, when I heard that, I slapped her. Alex
04:40gripped my wrist
04:40hard and coldly threw me off. This time, I didn't get angry. My eyes turned wet instead. I walked up
04:46quickly and grabbed Sophie's hand. Sophie, what are you saying? Thank you for taking care of Alex. I'm so
04:52grateful. I used to be immature and bad-tempered. I gave him a lot to worry about. Thanks to you
05:00for
05:00doing what a wife should do. Honey, I brought you something too. It's not as good as Sophie's soup,
05:06but it's my own little effort. I opened the container. Inside was a sandwich I'd spent an hour
05:12making. A dark, messy lump with no idea what went into it. Scarlett, Alex's stomach is bad. Eating
05:21something Birkin like that isn't right, is it? Alex, maybe you should have my soup instead. She reached
05:27for the bowl on the table. Alex? Luca. Luca outside pushed the door open and came in at once.
05:37Tell the front desk. From now on, no one is allowed into the CEO's office without an appointment.
05:42Alex, I was only worried about- Get out.
05:47Sophie covered her face and ran out, crying. I felt a burst of joy. So the weak act actually worked.
05:53Men like Alex are suckers for that sweet, innocent act. He walked over to me and picked up the sandwich
05:58from the table. Hey, don't eat that. It tastes awful. Without expression, he shoved it into his mouth.
06:04I reached to grab it back. He stepped aside and kept eating, bite after bite, until it was gone.
06:16Scarlett, are you done playing games?
06:20What game? I just wanted to be nicer to you. Is that wrong?
06:25You don't even know where the kitchen door is normally.
06:30Today you cooked yourself. And you even smiled at Sophie. Scarlett, do you think I'm an idiot?
06:34He leaned in slightly. Say it. What do you want this time? The pink diamond in South Africa?
06:41Or that chateau in Europe? Name your price. I'll pay. Don't use this to disgust me.
06:47So the sweetness I faked was just a disgusting trick to him. Fair enough. I had always acted up
06:53and worn his patience out completely. Now I suddenly change. How could he believe me?
06:58I really don't want anything. Alex, believe it or not. I stopped at the door and faced away from him.
07:07Take care of yourself in London. Then I walked out of Mitchell Group without looking back.
07:15In my last life, while Alex was gone for three days, I maxed out three of his black cards.
07:20I bought a dozen limited edition bags. And because he missed calls during meetings,
07:24I sent him hundreds of angry texts. This time, I held back. I didn't call him once.
07:29I didn't send a single text. I didn't even touch his cards.
07:33Grace came over and saw me making coffee. She nearly ripped off her fresh manicure in shock.
07:38Scarlett, are you okay? That's not like you. Alex has gone three days and you haven't posted once?
07:44Not even cursed him? I poured her a cup of coffee.
07:48I was just so childish before. Marriage requires effort. I want to be the woman behind him.
07:54You don't have a fever? Did you know everyone's saying Alex went to London to bid at Christie's
08:00for that rare Berkey? That's the bag you've been obsessing over for six months.
08:05He's definitely doing it to make you happy.
08:09In my last life, Alex did go to that auction. But the bag was snatched by some mysterious buyer.
08:15Alex came back with nothing. I went into a rage at home. I smashed the precious collectibles in
08:21the living room. Thinking about this, I shuddered. It was that moment he lost all patience with me.
08:29This must never happen again. The night Alex returned, I waited at the door in his favorite
08:34burgundy silk nightgown. The lock turned and he walked in. His eyes were rimmed red. Luca trailed
08:40behind him, pushing a single suitcase. I didn't get the bag. Something came up. Someone else bought
08:45it for a high price. He glanced at me. He looked tense. I didn't get the bag. It's okay. It's
08:52only a bag. If you
08:54couldn't get it, it's fine. What matters is you came back safe. Work is hard. Don't stress over
09:00something small. Honestly, I don't even like that bag anymore. Alex froze. He stared at me in disbelief.
09:13What did you say? His voice trembled violently, carrying a suppressed madness. Say it again.
09:23Alex, what are you doing? You're hurting me. Didn't you always say you had to have it? Didn't
09:31you say if you couldn't get that bag, you'd smash this house? Scarlet, what are you trying to do?
09:37You're giving up the bag. Are you going to give me up too? Has Grace set you up with some
09:41new man?
09:42That movie star? Or some artist painter? Have you already prepared the divorce? I was stunned by the
09:48questions. The pain in my wrist made tears spring to my eyes. I fought to break free. He tightened his
09:54hold. My emotions took over before I could think. The perfect wife act collapsed in an instant.
10:01Alex, are you crazy? I care about you. I try to be kind and you go mad like this.
10:07Are you only happy when I lose control? Not only is the bag gone, I might even lose my place
10:13as a
10:13high society wife. I closed my eyes, waiting for Alex's fury. But the rage I expected never came.
10:21I opened them. Alex had turned and was looking at my tear-streaked face. He let out a long breath.
10:27Then he lifted his hand and gently wiped the tears from my cheek with his fingertip.
10:31Does your hand hurt?
10:33What?
10:34He wasn't angry. He was worrying about my hand. He really was sick, and badly. He took the hand
10:41I'd used to slap him, brought it to his lips, and kissed it softly.
10:46Sorry. I lost my temper. I was just really scared. I've told Luca to check the buyer's background.
10:52No matter how much it takes, I'll get it back for you. Don't be mad. Okay?
10:58Looking at the man broken and painfully humble, random images flickered through my head.
11:02When our families decided on the marriage, the Mitchells had originally proposed Ryan,
11:06Alex's half-brother. As for Alex, he was nothing more than an unwanted illegitimate son.
11:12Even the servants looked down on him.
11:14At a grand banquet years ago, Ryan followed me around trying his best to charm me.
11:18I was bored out of my mind. Then I turned and saw Alex standing in the shadowed corner.
11:25He wore a suit that didn't fit him right. His eyes were down. He looked like a lone wolf.
11:31At that moment, my rebellious spirit was ignited.
11:35I want him. I'll marry no one else.
11:41Everyone thought I was crazy. But I'm Scarlet. I always get what I want.
11:45I pushed my father to pressure them. I forced the marriage through.
11:50After we married, I treated him like my private property.
11:53I bossed him around and let my bad temper loose.
11:55I always thought I was the hunter. He was the prey who had to submit.
11:59Now it made me uncertain for the first time. He stepped closer and backed me into a corner.
12:05Done yelling? If not, go on. Just don't mention divorce.
12:11Scarlet, in this life, you can only die by my side.
12:14I don't want a divorce. I just really want to change my PD.
12:21To prove I was really trying to be a perfect wife, I decided to prepare his bath myself.
12:26But staring at the cabinet full of bath oils, I hesitated.
12:29I grabbed a bottle that looked the priciest and poured in about half of it.
12:33A thick layer of foam floated on the water.
12:36Honey! The bath's ready! Come take a bath!
12:42You put this in?
12:43Yeah. I picked the most expensive oil. It's supposed to relieve fatigue.
12:49Finally.
12:51I felt pleased with myself outside.
12:53I was one step closer to being the perfect wife.
12:56Half an hour later there was a muffled thud from the bathroom.
12:59I jumped and rushed in.
13:01Alex was leaning on the tub's edge, face flushed, breathing fast.
13:06Alex! What's wrong?
13:08Worse, a huge patch of tiny red rashes had broken out all over his body.
13:13What oil did you put in?
13:18Rose, camille.
13:20It has almond oil in it.
13:22I'm allergic to nuts.
13:26He was allergic.
13:28In my last life I never cared about his likes or limits.
13:31I never knew he was allergic to nuts.
13:34Sorry, sorry. I didn't know. I'll call 911 right now.
13:37It's over.
13:38This time it's really over.
13:40He must think I did this on purpose.
13:42Maybe he's already having a lawyer draw up divorce papers.
13:45Mitchell, you can go in.
13:47Alex lay on the bed with an four in his hand.
13:50Sorry.
13:52He looked at my swollen eyes and sighed.
13:55Come here.
13:57I moved closer and had barely sat when he pulled me into his arms.
14:02Why are you crying? I didn't blame you.
14:05He rubbed his chin against the top of my head.
14:07You're not angry?
14:11I almost got you killed.
14:16Alex's deep eyes locked on me.
14:18Scarlet, don't change.
14:20Stay you.
14:21Just be the spoiled, stubborn, unruly Scarlet.
14:25Even if you smash things and yell at me every day.
14:27Just don't give me that polite, distant smile.
14:30In that moment, I finally knew.
14:32This man really loved my dramatic and unreasonable behavior.
14:35The first day after Alex got out of the hospital happened to be the Mitchell family's monthly dinner.
14:40In my last life, I hated these events.
14:42His mother Dorothy always used that superior air to put me down.
14:46Sophie would just sit there stirring things up, acting all innocent.
14:49Every dinner ended with me flipping the table and storming out.
14:52This time, I decided to try a different tactic.
14:55The Mitchell estate dining room was full of relatives.
14:58Dorothy sat at the head of the table, face severe.
15:00Sophie sat dutifully at her side, pouring wine with a sweet smile.
15:04Alex, you're not getting any younger.
15:06No matter how busy you are, you should start thinking about airs.
15:09We can't have people saying the Mitchell line dies out.
15:12She shot a pointed glance at my belly.
15:17Yeah, Scarlett, a woman's duty is to keep the family line going.
15:21Aunt Dorothy, uncles, don't be hard on Scarlett.
15:24Scarlett's been spoiled since she was little.
15:27She couldn't bear the hardships of childbirth.
15:29Besides, she has a temper.
15:31If she gets pregnant and is in a bad mood, what if she hurt Alex or the baby?
15:37Sophie's right.
15:38Someone's just sitting in a position doing nothing and still has no shame about it.
15:42Honey, am I really that worthless?
15:44Am I embarrassing the Mitchells?
15:46Maybe we should divorce.
15:48Let Sophie take my place.
15:49She's so sensible.
15:51She'd surely win Aunt Dorothy's favor.
15:53Alex went rigid.
15:55Sophie felt uneasy under his stare.
15:57She forced out a smile.
15:59I...
16:02Alex!
16:02Are you crazy?
16:04What are you doing?
16:06What makes you think you can talk to my wife like that?
16:11Mother Scarlett is the wife I chose.
16:13She's got a temper.
16:14I spoiled her.
16:15If she won't have kids, that's my choice.
16:17If anyone dares make her suffer, I wouldn't mind the Mitchell name changing.
16:23With everyone staring in shock, Alex led me out in long strides.
16:27I followed him, grinning inside.
16:29Turns out, not having to start a fight yourself feels pretty damn good.
16:33After that family dinner, Alex cut off all support to Sophie.
16:37She went to the Mitchell group to make a scene, but was thrown out by security guards.
16:41I knew Sophie would act up when cornered.
16:43So I had Grace bring her into a gallery I owned as an assistant.
16:47I wanted to see what kind of trouble she'd stir up next.
16:50That afternoon I sat in the gallery's VIP room on the second floor, sipping coffee.
16:54Through the one-way glass I watched the main hall downstairs.
16:58So even this little bitch gets what's coming to her.
17:01Scarlett, you brought her onto your own turf.
17:04Aren't you afraid she'll get too close for comfort and try to move in on Alex?
17:09I want to see whether Alex even has feelings for her.
17:14Evening, Alex's car stopped at the gallery door.
17:17He pushed the door and walked in.
17:19Sophie's eyes lit up the moment she saw him.
17:21She grabbed a painting on purpose and staggered toward Alex.
17:24Oh, as she passed him, she tipped and fell into his arms.
17:29I watched from the second floor, my heart in my throat.
17:32I tightened my grip on the cup, ready to rush down.
17:35But Alex didn't reach to catch her.
17:36He stepped aside fast.
17:38Sophie hit the marble floor hard.
17:40The painting landed on top of her.
17:42I put on a stern face and walked over to Alex.
17:45What are you staring at?
17:47Feeling sorry for her?
17:51No.
17:52You keeping someone like her?
17:55Don't you mind her messing up your carpet?
17:57Inside, I was over the moon.
17:59On the outside, I stayed fierce.
18:02I'd love to.
18:04Can't I keep her to mop the floor for me?
18:08Fine.
18:10Let's go.
18:11I booked the bird on.
18:13Sophie sat on the floor, looking at our retreating backs.
18:16Her eyes were full of hate.
18:19Cheers!
18:21To celebrate Sophie being completely out, Grace and I went to a new bar.
18:25We drank in a private room and playing a game, I spilled a drink on my phone.
18:29The screen flashed and died.
18:31Black.
18:31Dead.
18:32I tossed the phone aside and kept drinking with grace.
18:35Suddenly the door was kicked open.
18:37I lifted my head.
18:38Fuzzy.
18:39Alex came in against the corridor light.
18:41He stormed in.
18:42He wasn't wearing a coat.
18:44His shirt collar was open.
18:46His tie was crooked.
18:47His eyes were bloodshot and terrifying.
18:49He barreled over and scooped me off the sofa into his arms.
18:53Scarlet.
18:54Why couldn't I reach you on your phone?
18:56I thought something happened to you.
19:00I thought you left me.
19:02He was shaking.
19:03Alex, the ruthless king of Wall Street, couldn't stop trembling.
19:07My phone got water in it.
19:08It broke.
19:08That's all.
19:09You don't need to freak out and kick the door in.
19:11You'll have to pay for that.
19:15I looked for you for three hours.
19:17I checked all security cameras in the city.
19:21He bit my lips fiercely.
19:24Grace watched in stunned silence.
19:26She quietly backed out with her bodyguard and, considerate as ever, shut the wobbly door
19:30behind them.
19:31Alex pressed his forehead to mine, breathing hard.
19:36Scarlet.
19:38Next time you make me lose you, I'll chain you to the bed.
19:43You won't go anywhere.
19:45His tone left no joke in it.
19:47I looked at the near-crazed possessiveness in his eyes.
19:49Stupid kind of sweetness.
19:51The next morning I woke in Alex's big bed.
19:53All your data's been transferred.
19:55I couldn't help smiling.
19:57Then Grace's message popped up.
19:59Hey girl, I need to talk to you ASAP.
20:01Scarlet, you awake?
20:03Coffee?
20:04I've got huge news.
20:06Look at this.
20:07She slid several documents across the table with a conspiratorial look.
20:11I flipped through them.
20:13They were reports, early share changes in the Mitchell group and internal investigation notes.
20:18Why are you showing me this?
20:19I don't know anything about business.
20:22Scarlet, do you remember why you picked Alex?
20:25Of course.
20:27He was that pitiful illegitimate son.
20:29Ryan bullied him out of pity, and I was also attracted to his look, so I just forced myself on
20:35him.
20:38Forced yourself on him?
20:39Scarlet, you've been sold out and you're still helping him count the money!
20:42Thank you for your mind.
20:42Hey you didn't see me.
20:42You're still about to fill in.
20:42I don't know it.
20:42It's not too much for providing you to see here.
20:43Oh, oh, oh.
