Transcript
00:00Today is our third wedding anniversary. I got my husband a little surprise. I couldn't wait to see the look
00:05on his face.
00:06Relax, I'm definitely divorcing her.
00:10She's already been through two divorces. The entire Upper East Side has judged her for it already.
00:15There's no way she'd dare go through a third one.
00:18You really know how to play this. Giving her divorce papers on April Fool's Day?
00:22Even if she loses it afterward, you can just say it was a joke, sweet-tucker a bit, and she'll
00:26forgive you.
00:28What's she actually going to do?
00:30Don't forget the promise we made senior year.
00:33Lila's wedding is next week. For her last bachelorette party, every one of us has to be single.
00:38The surprise was on me. Three marriages, three men I'd do anything for.
00:42And this is how they repay me? With a toast and a laugh.
00:45Joey, I need your help. My grandfather trusts you. The Carmichael name means everything to him.
00:49If you marry me, he'll hand me the inheritance. Please.
00:51Joey, they're forcing me into a marriage I don't want. You're the only one who can help.
00:54If they think I'm already married, they'll back off.
00:55Sure. When do we go?
00:56I never imagined that every sacrifice I made for them would one day become the reason they believe
01:01they could manipulate me so easily. Then I went home, to the man who just told his friends
01:06she won't make a scene.
01:07Coming back, I would have picked you up. Have you eaten?
01:09I already did.
01:10Oh right, babe. There's something I need to discuss with you.
01:13We need to separate our assets for a while.
01:15So this is what it felt like, to be the easiest person to handle.
01:18The company's been having some issues lately. We need to separate our assets for a while. The lawyers
01:23on Wall Street suggested we only do it on paper without actually separating.
01:27In the short time I'd been gone, he'd already prepared everything.
01:31Once things calm down, we'll remarry. It'll only be for a few months. I know this is sudden,
01:37but Sebastian and Ethan called me earlier today. They kept implying that when you helped them before,
01:42you never hesitated. But somehow with me, it's different.
01:45They even joked that a woman who's already been divorced twice would never dare go through a
01:49third one, said you wouldn't have the guts. I've already thought it through. Tomorrow happens to
01:54be April Fool's Day. We'll go file tomorrow, throw the divorce papers in their faces, scare the hell out
01:59of them, and see if they ever dare underestimate you again. Besides, it's April Fool's Day. Everything
02:03can be brushed off as a joke. Once the company gets through this rough pitch, we'll officially remarry.
02:08Nobody will say a thing.
02:09There was expectation in his eyes now, and just the right amount of vulnerability.
02:14Babe, you wouldn't really let them look down on me, would you?
02:17I stared into his eyes for a very long time. Those same eyes, clinking glasses with them an hour ago.
02:23I won't.
02:26Then get some rest. Tomorrow morning, after we sign everything, we'll head over and-
02:30Call them. Tell them they can stop worrying now. He probably hadn't expected me to agree so easily.
02:36You're seriously the best. I let him kiss me. Inside, my heart was as still and lifeless as dead
02:42water. He took the agreement to the study to make a call. She signed. See, I told you Joey is
02:48the
02:48easiest to handle. The easiest to handle. Keep Leela steady on your end. I'll come over once I'm done.
02:55I sat in the room for a long time. A message from Ethan. Haven't seen you in a while? Wanna
03:01get
03:01together? Before, I would have replied, sure. I would have carefully considered what to wear,
03:06what makeup to put on. I would have thought about how to protect grace and reputation in front of
03:10them to show them I had married well. To keep them from being at odds with Grayson. After all,
03:15on one side were friends I'd grown up with, and on the other was the husband I deeply loved. Both
03:19were
03:19people I treasured. I didn't want them to remain enemies for life. But now, I couldn't even be
03:24bothered to reply. Passing the study, his voice was low, but carried a casual ease I had never heard
03:30before. The ease of someone who no longer needed to act or pretend. He had never once spoken to me
03:36like that. My phone lit up again. This time it was Sebastian. Heard you're getting divorced again?
03:41Grayson is such a scumbag. He doesn't deserve you. Don't be sad. Your grandfather's 80th birthday
03:45banquet is coming up. Ethan and I will go celebrate with him. Let's all get together.
03:49How beautifully he spoke. I suddenly wanted to know, what kind of person was Lila Pendrelground in
03:54really? I got it, babe. I knew you wouldn't be asleep yet. What are you doing here?
04:12Oh, sister-in-law is here too. Joey, she's had too much to drink. We were taking her home,
04:18but she insisted on stopping by. Grayson, your wife is still at home. Don't you know to keep
04:23your distance? You got her this drunk and brought her to my house, and you're telling me to keep
04:27your distance? I got her drunk. It's because you post about being single on your moments.
04:33Fine. You're noble. You're proper. I've delivered the person who got drunk over you. Handle it yourself.
04:40All right, all right. Stop fighting. Lila just stopped by on the way to say hello.
04:44You're all here at just the right time. There's something I'd like you to witness in person.
04:48Two copies, both signed. Since everyone is here, why not take a clear look?
04:53Joey, we can talk about this privately. There's no need to-
04:55Since sister-in-law has brought it up, can I ask, when are you moving out?
05:00This house is under my name. You can't keep living here forever, can you?
05:05The house? In her name?
05:08In that instant, a flood of images.
05:11This is our home. I'll handle the paperwork, don't worry about it.
05:16Every piece of furniture in this place was something I'd picked out trip after trip to
05:19the furniture stores. The entire layout was arranged to his taste. I never cared whose
05:24name was on the property deed, but I never imagined that the home meant for our marriage would bear
05:28another woman's name. I'm leaving. Now.
05:31Joey.
05:34Tomorrow, nine o'clock. City Hall, Marriage Registry.
05:38Man, she's something. Even more cooperative than when I begged her to marry me.
05:43I stood by the elevator, listening to this unfamiliar story. In the mirror, I looked calmer than I had
05:48imagined.
05:53Be good. Find somewhere to stay up in a few days.
05:56Pick me up in a few days? He made it sound like I'd just gone out for groceries and would
06:00be right
06:01back. No need, Grayson. No need to come get me.
06:05The next morning at nine, outside the City Hall Marriage Registry.
06:08When I arrived, Grayson was already waiting. He leaned against his car door, and when he saw me get
06:13out, he stubbed out his cigarette and walked over.
06:15Where did you go last night?
06:18Grandfather's house. I had already stopped owing him any real answers.
06:21He nodded. His gaze languid on my face for a moment, and he suddenly reached out to touch my
06:25hair. I turned my head away. His hand hung in midair for a second, then withdrawed.
06:28Joey, I know you saved my face in front of Sebastian and Ethan. I appreciate it.
06:32As for the house, Lila needed a New York State residency, which requires owning property. I figured
06:37it was just a name on paper. You married down to be with me, so I didn't think you'd care
06:40about
06:40such things. That's why I didn't tell you.
06:42I looked into his eyes and said nothing. Wouldn't care? He gave away our marital home
06:46to another woman, and dismissed it with a single line. It wasn't that he thought I wouldn't
06:50care. It was that he simply didn't care whether I care.
06:53Anyway, you have residency rights to the house. After the divorce, stay somewhere else
06:56for a while. Once I've sorted things out on my end, I'll bring you back.
06:58I nearly laughed out loud. Even now, he still thought I was playing along with his charade.
07:01Let's go. Let's get this done.
07:05He followed quickly. The paperwork went faster than expected. Signatures, thumbprints, photos
07:09submitted. The marriage registry finally pressed the steel seal down. A soft click. The divorce
07:14decree in my hands was just a few thin pages, similar to the marriage certificate, only a
07:17different color.
07:18I need to take a call. Wait here for me. I'll give you a ride back later.
07:24Lila.
07:26I stood still, quietly watching his back. He hung up and walked back quickly. His expression
07:30somewhat urgent. Something came up. Head back on your own for now. I'll contact you later.
07:34Only after he walked out the front door did I slowly turn and walk toward the marriage
07:38registration window on the other side. When Grayson walked out of City Hall, the sun was
07:42already high in the sky. He looked at the divorce retreat in his hand, then checked his phone.
07:45April 1st. April Fool's Day. That's right. It was today. A client's call when
07:49denied him in ten minutes served him slightly. His phone rang suddenly, glanced back at the City Hall
07:52entrance. Why hadn't Joey come out yet? He hesitated, then turned to walk back. He wanted
07:58to go in and say a couple more words to her. At least set a date for remarriage so she
08:01wouldn't
08:02overthink things. Before he'd taken more than a few steps, he collided with a man coming
08:06through the door. Sorry. Two documents lay side by side, his divorce decree and the other
08:10man's marriage certificate. A gust of wind flipped the cover of the other man's marriage certificate
08:14halfway open, revealing a corner of the photo inside. No problem. The man picked up his marriage
08:18certificate first, his voice. Congratulations, getting married today. Congratulations to
08:22you two. Grayson froze, not quite catching the meaning. The man had already tucked the marriage
08:27certificate into his inner pocket, his gaze sweeping briefly across Graydon's face without
08:31lingering. He turned and walked away. Grayson stared after him, a thought growing heavier
08:36in his mind. It was April Fool's Day. Who would choose today to get married? And this man's
08:40voice, his build, he felt like he'd seen him somewhere before. Wait! The man stopped and
08:47turned slightly, his expression still indifferent. His phone rang at just the wrong moment. He glanced
08:52down, it was Ethan. He hesitated for a second, looked up to say one moment, but the man in
08:56the dark gray French coat had already disappeared around the corner. He didn't answer the call.
09:00Just as he was about to turn back and find Joey, his phone buzzed again. This time it was
09:04a location from Sebastian. Hurry up. We need to reach the island before sunset. His steps halted.
09:10The island. He remembered what Leela had said, making a wish by the sea on their high school
09:14graduation day. She said that before her wedding she wanted everyone to go to that private island
09:17in the Hamptons, and go wild for three days and nights cashing in the last of their youth.
09:22At the time, everyone thought it was the most romantic plaqued in the world. Now she was
09:26really getting married, and the time had come to fulfill it. But the island resort didn't accept
09:30outside guests. Entry required an exclusive membership. Among their group, the only one who
09:34held that ticket, was him. So he couldn't be late. If he went back for Joey and got caught
09:38up in a drawn out conversation, he wouldn't make it. He didn't hesitate any further and walked
09:42toward the parking lot.
09:48Grayson, why are you so late? I've been waiting for you for ages.
09:54He looks down at her. She tilts her face up and smiles, her eyes bright, exactly the same
09:59as she was in high school.
10:00Alright, I'll drink.
10:03Grayson still dotes on Leela like crazy. Some things never change.
10:09Aw, someone's just jealous.
10:12When they arrive at the resort, the sky has already darkened. Star lights hang all over
10:19the terrace.
10:19Speaking of which, Leela, you're getting married next week. None of us have met the groom yet.
10:24You've hidden him really well.
10:26Groom? What groom?
10:29Aren't you getting married next week?
10:32April Fool's Day!
10:36You've been falling for it every year for so long.
10:40Alright, alright, you got us good. You had all of us fooled.
10:44Hey, wait! Leela isn't married, Grayson just got divorced, we're all single now!
10:50After all these years, you two still pretending to be just friends? Everyone knows high school,
10:55you two can't live without each other.
10:57You're drunk!
10:59I'm not drunk. I'm dead serious. You're both single? Just get together!
11:05Get together! Get together! He left his wife for you! You gotta hold up!
11:10Grayson, you're not gonna join in and mess with me too, right?
11:14He's not messing around. He means it!
11:17Yeah!
11:20Grayson, are you even listening to me? Everyone's messing with me. Don't you join in too, okay?
11:26Grayson, who are you thinking about, huh?
11:28Nothing. I'm just gonna hit the restroom.
11:32She's definitely waiting for my call. The last two fake divorces she texted right away.
11:36She'll do the same this time. She's just waiting for me to go first.
11:44Can you get me a glass of water?
11:47Want me to get that?
11:53Joey?
11:56You picked up?
12:00You picked up.
12:01I just wanted to ask you how you've been lately.
12:05Joey?
12:09Who is that?
12:11Grayson, you're drunk.
12:12I'm not drunk!
12:14Who's there with you?
12:18Grayson, it's late. Get some rest.
12:21Joey?
12:22I have things to do tomorrow.
12:25What things?
12:46I called her.
12:48She asked nothing.
12:50Not why I called, if I drank or if I was happy.
12:53Nothing at all.
12:55Last two fake divorces, she texted.
12:58I took it all for granted. God damn it.
13:04Grayson! Where have you been?
13:08What happened to your hand?
13:10Nothing, just bumped it.
13:11Let me see.
13:12I'm fine.
13:15Every drink burned.
13:19I lost count.
13:22Her voice played on repeat.
13:26Grayson, you need to stop drinking.
13:33Do you know who I am?
13:36Yeah, Lila.
13:39Come on, let's get you to your room.
13:46Don't.
13:47I got it.
13:53Here, drink some water.
13:56Grayson?
13:59You really drank too much tonight.
14:01Wow.
14:03Your heart's racing.
14:05Grayson?
14:06Hmm.
14:08Remember senior year?
14:09I walked you home once when you were wasted too.
14:12You muddled all night about how bad things were at home.
14:15How you'd make it big someday.
14:17You said something else.
14:19What did I say?
14:21You said, I wish someone would just stay with me.
14:25I stayed.
14:32Lila.
14:34You don't have to think about anything.
14:42The kiss trailed down his neck.
14:54She smiled.
14:55She'd won.
14:57Their bodies tangled.
15:01Does it hurt?
15:08That was the last straw.
15:20They slept in each other's arms.
15:26Reality hit him hard.
15:32Morning.
15:36Nothing from Joey.
15:42Grayson?
15:43Why are you so late?
15:47About last night.
15:49I'm sorry.
15:52You're saying sorry to me?
15:54I know.
15:55I don't know what to say.
15:57Look at me.
15:58I can barely stand.
16:01Grayson, how long are you going to keep pretending?
16:04Back in high school, her grandpa blackmailed you into dating her with that scholarship.
16:09You're already at the top now.
16:10What are you still scared of?
16:13Her grandpa didn't blackrail me.
16:14I pursued her.
16:16I guess I was wrong.
16:17Just go.
16:20What did you two do last night?
16:22Dude, you crossed a line.
16:24You and Joey are still faking the divorce, remember?
16:28I'm talking to you.
16:33Let go.
16:36Did you sleep with her?
16:39Grayson, do you even know what you're doing?
16:40You just got fake divorce from Joey yesterday and you're sleeping with Leela today?
16:44What the hell do you take her for?
16:47I didn't ask you to meddle in my business.
17:00You done?
17:04Why didn't you hit back?
17:07I'll take responsibility for her.
17:10Responsibility?
17:11With what?
17:12You just got divorced yesterday and you're talking about being responsible to someone else today?
17:15How the hell is that fair to Joey?
17:17What the hell do you want me to do?
17:19Enough.
17:19Stop arguing.
17:20Grayson, calm down.
17:21You can't make rational choices like this.
17:23I'll go wash my face.
17:26He tried to escape for a moment.
17:28People always take what they have for granted until they nearly lose it.
17:32Grayson!
17:34Don't come any closer!
17:39Just step down first.
17:40We can talk about this.
17:43There's nothing to say.
17:45Back in high school, you wrote me a love letter.
17:47Then she showed up and you left me.
17:50Now you're divorced from her and you still don't want me.
17:52Just go.
17:53Go back to that woman.
17:54I'm not leaving.
17:54I'll stay with you.
17:56Really?
17:56I mean it.
18:02This way you can keep your promise and stay with me.
18:08Do you remember my other dream?
18:10She stood at the study door for a long time.
18:13She stood at the study door for a long time.
18:16Long enough for the sound of pages turning inside to stop.
18:20Come in.
18:27Go on.
18:28I got divorced.
18:30Who asked for it?
18:32He did.
18:34April Fool's Day.
18:36He said it was a prank.
18:37Sebastian and Ethan planned it together.
18:40You signed it.
18:43I did.
18:44When?
18:45Last week.
18:46At City Hall.
18:50You didn't come here to tell me you got divorced.
18:53No.
18:53Then what do you want?
18:55Sebastian Vaughn.
18:57The zoning permit for his land on Long Island.
18:59He pulled strings for it three years ago.
19:00Revoke it.
19:01Ethan Ross.
19:02The three key accounts for his logistics firm,
19:05the ones with Carmichael Group backing, terminate them.
19:07All Upper East resources, connections, access,
19:10linked to the Carmichael name, cut it off.
19:12He did something Joey never saw coming.
19:16I funded those two boys.
19:19I bought Sebastian his inheritance.
19:22I lined up Ethan's clients.
19:27Where is Grayson?
19:30You don't need to touch his company.
19:33Reason?
19:35He's good.
19:36He can stand on his own, with or without the Carmichael name.
19:40Go get some sleep.
19:41I'll have Mr. Carter handle the birthday banquet tomorrow.
19:45Grandpa.
19:45What is it now?
19:46That ring.
19:48Keep it for me.
19:49I don't want it anymore, but I don't want to throw it away either.
19:52The door clicked shut.
19:54The grandpa was alone in the study.
19:58Mr. Carter.
19:59Sir.
19:59I'm making two changes to the guest list for next month's birthday banquet.
20:03Go ahead, sir.
20:04After hanging up, the old man sat still with his eyes closed.
20:09He pushed himself up so fast that his chair shot backward.
20:13It crashed to the floor with a heavy thud.
20:16He lifted his right foot and kicked the side table hard.
20:20One cup shattered against the fireplace.
20:23Shards glinted like water in moonlight.
20:25He stared at the mess, his chest heaved violently twice.
20:30We build them up only to watch them crumble.
20:34And in the end, we are left with the ghosts of what we lost.
20:40He kicked again, straight into the base of the bookshelf.
21:02The world is watching, and they only see the perfect picture.
21:08The plaza's 80th birthday gala.
21:10Only New York's elite.
21:12Excuse me, gentlemen.
21:13You're not on the guest list.
21:16Check again.
21:17We're Joey's childhood friends.
21:19We've spent every holiday at her house.
21:20Sorry, sir.
21:21If you're not on the list, you're not on the list.
21:23No exceptions.
21:23Who's the Vaughn and Ross losers?
21:25Both ex-husbands, right?
21:26Showing up at her grandpa's birthday?
21:28Remarry?
21:29Haven't you heard?
21:29The old man's announcing a big, happy surprise tonight.
21:37We've been coming to this gala every single year.
21:39We have more right to be here than anyone else here.
21:46Mr. Carter.
21:48Gentlemen, you are no longer welcome here.
21:50Please leave.
21:57Let's go.
21:59Why?
22:00Joey and I grew up together!
22:03Sebastian.
22:07Let's go.
22:09Some things, once broken, stay broken.
22:14What's wrong?
22:20What's wrong?
22:23The golden dome he knew so well was slipping away.
22:28Three days after the rejection.
22:32What have you done?
22:34What have you done?
22:34The Long Island permit's blocked.
22:36New regulation?
22:37Bullshit!
22:38That land was a wedding gift from Joey's grandpa.
22:41It got him the Vaughn family inheritance.
22:45He had nowhere else to turn.
22:47The number you have dialed is no longer in service.
22:50He put down the phone.
22:53And a memory came flooding back.
22:56Don't be afraid.
22:57I'm here for you.
23:00She was his only way out.
23:03Now he had nothing left.
23:07All three clients bailed on the same day.
23:11It's the Carmichael thing.
23:13Everyone's reevaluating the risk.
23:16He had lost everything he'd built.
23:21He slammed the phone down.
23:26Apologize to the Carmichael's tomorrow, with me.
23:34He put down the phone.
23:3815-year-old Joey under the Osmega tree.
23:42He'd hidden it for over 10-year years.
23:46He thought she'd see him someday.
23:48Lena loved the ocean more than anything.
23:51He used to lie to Joey about business trips.
23:53But this time, he felt nothing but dread.
23:56He wanted to go back to New York.
23:58But Lena got sick and wouldn't let him leave.
24:01Days turned into weeks.
24:02And weeks into a month.
24:04He returned to grab his forgotten phone.
24:08You've kept him stuck for months?
24:10Still didn't win him over?
24:11I don't buy he's that innocent.
24:14Ugh.
24:15Faking sickness.
24:16Kept him trapped here.
24:18But I sent all our photos to JoLynn.
24:24She knows.
24:25She ought to step aside for good.
24:31What did you send to Joey?
24:35Grayson, why are you back?
24:36I was only messing with my friend.
24:38Just a joke?
24:41Grayson, that's my phone!
24:45I've sent them to her.
24:47She'll lose her cool easily.
24:48Rich Iris can't steal a man from me.
24:52You call this a harmless joke?
25:00When did you take all these photos?
25:04Grayson, just let me explain.
25:05I asked you when!
25:11You were never sick at all.
25:13A fever?
25:15I stayed up beside you every night, waking at every single cough of yours, truly believing
25:20you were uneal.
25:21I thought I was taking care of you.
25:24But I was nothing but your fool.
25:26Grayson, I didn't mean it. I just...
25:30Just what? Trying to trap me here? Keep me away from her?
25:36Yes. I'm determined.
25:38I'm determined to keep you by myself.
25:42Did you think I had an easy time these two months?
25:44Do you think I don't know who's on your mind?
25:46You scroll through her photos late at night thinking I'm sound asleep.
25:49What's wrong with faking illness or sending those photos?
25:52You lied to her about business trips just to be with me.
25:55Aren't you playing her too?
25:56Did you think I've had an easy two months?
25:58Do you know who's on your mind?
26:00You scroll her photos late at night thinking I'm sound asleep.
26:03What's wrong with faking sickness?
26:04You lied to her about work trips to be with me.
26:06Aren't you fooling her too?
26:13This one. Hotel balcony.
26:15You claimed you were watching the ocean and ignored my three...
26:18Enough!
26:29You swatted my phone.
26:31You did it all for her.
26:33I didn't lay a hand on you.
26:35You hit at me all the same.
26:36Every thought in your head belongs to her.
26:38Don't think I can't feel it.
26:40Do you honestly think I liked faking illness?
26:43Do you think I wanted to trap you this way?
26:45I didn't mean-
26:46You did!
26:47You're always thinking of her while shopping or holding me!
26:52Your arms were always loose when you held me.
26:54Does a woman not feel the difference between a tight or loose embrace?
26:59Always loose every single time.
27:07Grayson, you're leaving, aren't you?
27:10Are you going back to her after all?
27:12Grayson, don't leave!
27:14You promised you'd stay with me!
27:15I only made that promise under the belief you were really sick.
27:19Pretend I'm still sick, still feverish and coughing.
27:22You said you'd wait till I recover. Feel it! I still have a fever!
27:27Grayson took in her tear-swowned eyes. He turned without a word and walked toward the doorway.
27:32Grayson, you're really leaving for good, aren't you?
27:35Step out this door and never come back again.
27:40He left without a glance, hurrying through hallway, elevator and lobby.
27:44He set New York as destination. 2847 miles, 41-hour drive.
27:50Driving non-stop towards New York, he kept trying to add her contact back on the way.
27:54He sent a friend request, yet no reply came even after a follow-up message to Joey.
27:58It hit him that she had never reached out to add him back all these months.
28:01The line was shut down, and he gripped the wheel tight, forcing himself to make excuses for her.
28:06Speeding towards New York, he kept trying to send her friend requests on the road.
28:10Convinced she stayed with her grandpa after their split, he rushed over and banged hard on the door.
28:15Joey answered the door, her rounded belly showing five or six months of pregnancy.
28:19The obvious baby bump hit him the second his eyes fell on her midsection.
28:23His gaze locked on her belly.
28:31Joey, I'm here to take you back and remarry you.
28:36Remarry? You'd better ask my husband for permission first.
28:41It's you?
28:42He suddenly remembered the man in the dark gray coat he'd seen at City Hall.
28:46You too, the baby. Is it mine?
28:51What do you think?
28:53Finn said nothing, his gaze soft and reverent as he looked at her belly.
28:59Joey, what are you doing?
29:00Don't you remember our deal? It was only a fake divorce for April Fool's…
29:03I'm sorry.
29:04Her calm reply shut down all his last remaining hopes completely.
29:08I never celebrate meaningless prank holidays like April Fool's Day.
29:12But if you're fond of it, I'll send my best wishes.
29:16Happy April Fool's Day.
29:23Three months after our wedding.
29:27Finn.
29:28I'm jealous.
29:30Jealous of who?
29:32Her.
29:33Our daughter isn't even born yet.
29:36So? She gets all your attention. You sleep holding her.
29:39You talk to her all day. You even kiss me half-heartedly now.
29:43Who would have thought the feared business tycan Finn Mortamy
29:47was competing with his unborn daughter for attention.
29:52Sir, there's a visitor outside.
29:54Who?
29:56Who?
29:56Grayson?
29:56As if she had heard the name of a stranger. Finn instinctively tightened his grip on her hand.
30:01I'll handle it.
30:03Grayson stood there. Compared to a few years ago, he looked much older. When he saw Finn, he forced a
30:09smile.
30:11I mean no harm.
30:12So?
30:13This was Joey's favorite necklace. I found it while sorting through my things. Please return it to her.
30:18She doesn't need it anymore.
30:20Of course. The girl who once treated him as her whole world no longer needed him.
30:25Finn.
30:26Grayson stared. Suddenly he remembered years ago, Joey had once looked at him the same way,
30:32with stars in her eyes. But now, that light belonged to someone else.
30:36It's that necklace. I used to love it. Keep it.
30:41What?
30:42Things from the past should stay in the past.
30:46Any regrets?
30:47No.
30:50Good.
30:52What if I hadn't chose you back then?
30:54Then I would have kept waiting. If seven years wasn't enough, I'd wait ten. If ten wasn't enough, I'd wait
31:00a lifetime.
31:03Snow was falling over New York. Grayson stood across the street from the Mortem Group headquarters.
31:08He had been waiting for three hours. Finally, the familiar black Mayak pulled up in front of the building.
31:15Grayson's body froze.
31:17It was Phoebe, the little girl whose photos he had secretly looked at countless-less times.
31:22Daddy, my teacher praised me today.
31:24Really?
31:24Because I'm the smartest kid in class.
31:26I believe it. After all, you take after Mummy.
31:29He had imagined this countless times. If Phoebe were his daughter, if he had never lost Joey,
31:34would he have moments like this too?
31:35Daddy, that man over there. Why is he staring at us? Hello, mister.
31:38A little.
31:39Not daddy. Not even someone familiar.
31:41Hello. What's your name?
31:44Phoebe Mortimer. I'm five years old and this is my daddy.
31:47Phoebe carried the Mortimer name. She called Finn Daddy, and all of it had nothing to do with him anymore.
31:54Mommy!
31:55Were you a good girl today?
31:56Yes. Daddy even bought me ice cream.
31:59You're spoiling her again.
32:00My daughter. Of course I'm gonna spoil her.
32:02He, uh...
32:05You're probably okay.
32:05you know me.
