00:00I have deeply loved Sebastian for a full eight years.
00:03Looking at the photo of Sebastian and me in my hand,
00:06I stood before the door and murmured softly,
00:09This is my last chance.
00:12This time, can I become Sebastian's fiancé?
00:15At the moment I reached out and was about to open the door,
00:18I suddenly froze because I heard Sebastian's mother
00:20questioning him with anger and disappointment.
00:22Sebastian, tell me, why, for seven consecutive years,
00:26have you secretly replaced all the slips of paper
00:28with your name on them with blank ones?
00:30You know perfectly well that if she doesn't draw your name,
00:33Eleanor can never become your fiancé.
00:36Doesn't it hurt your heart to watch her cry in disappointment every year?
00:40She has been crying for seven years.
00:42One more time won't make a difference.
00:45But Lillian just came back from Switzerland,
00:47and her emotions are very unstable.
00:49I promised to accompany her through her treatment for seven years.
00:54He then gave a light chuckle.
00:56Anyway, Eleanor and I have been together for eight years.
00:59Her family and friends all think we are definitely getting married.
01:03Other than waiting for me,
01:05she has no other choice.
01:08Don't worry.
01:09Next year, I will give her a very grand proposal ceremony.
01:14Consider it an explanation to her for these past few years.
01:17I think she will definitely be very satisfied with this arraignment.
01:21After saying that, he threw the slip of paper with Sebastian Ashford,
01:24written on it into the paper shredder.
01:26Listen, the sound of this paper shredder is indeed
01:30much better than Eleanor's disappointed crying every year.
01:34Standing outside the door, I heard those words
01:36and stared blankly at the photo in my hand.
01:39Turns out he wasn't blind to my tears,
01:42nor was he unaware of my disappointment.
01:43These seven years of blank slips were just a joke
01:47he used to trample on my true feelings.
01:50I clearly remember the Ashford family's rules.
01:53To become Sebastian's fiancée,
01:54one must draw a slip of paper from the lottery box
01:57at the grand charity banquet.
01:59She can only become his fiancée
02:01if she draws the slip with his name on it.
02:03And for these seven years,
02:04I have tried every possible method
02:05just to be able to become his fiancée.
02:08I thought he loved me truly,
02:09so I did all this willingly.
02:10Yet the hidden truth cuts deep and hurts so much.
02:14What do all my years striving to be his fiancée count for?
02:17It's nothing but a joke.
02:19But now, my heart suddenly let go completely.
02:21I loosened my grip,
02:22letting the slip of paper in my hand fall to the ground
02:25and turned to walk away.
02:27Since your name still isn't in the box for the eighth time,
02:30then I will just marry someone else.
02:32Sebastian adjusted his cuffs
02:34and left the lounge without a care.
02:36He arrived at the banquet hall,
02:37which was filled with wealthy people in gorgeous clothes.
02:40This was the eighth gala,
02:42hosted by the Ashfords,
02:44the most powerful family in New York,
02:46to select a fiancée for their heir.
02:48He walked straight toward Lillian,
02:51who was surrounded by a group of wealthy young ladies talking.
02:54Sebastian.
02:55Lillian's eyes were red,
02:56looking deeply wronged,
02:57and she threw herself into his arms.
02:59They said I have no right to stand here,
03:01that I'm the one ruining the relationship
03:03between you and Eleanor.
03:04Sebastian frowned deeply,
03:07his eyes sweeping fiercely across the entire hall,
03:10finally landing on those wealthy young ladies
03:12who were gossiping.
03:14Who dares to say she has no right?
03:16The rules I, Sebastian, have set
03:18are the rules of New York's Upper East Ed High Society.
03:21Lillian is an important guest I invited.
03:23Whoever makes her unhappy,
03:24makes me unhappy.
03:26The entire hall instantly became so quiet
03:28that even breathing could be heard.
03:30In the midst of this silence,
03:31the crystal chandelier in the banquet hall
03:33suddenly dimmed by half.
03:35Only a few wall lamps gave off a faint glow.
03:38Immediately after,
03:39a beam of cold white spotlight suddenly lit up.
03:42I pushed the doors open and walked in.
03:45Every step was unhurried and composed.
04:01Those wealthy young ladies looked at me.
04:03After all, for the past seven years,
04:05I was publicly recognised by everyone
04:07as Sebastian's fiancée
04:08and the only woman he allowed to stay by his side constantly.
04:12Everyone thought I would definitely make a scene
04:14and drive Lillian away or, like the previous seven years,
04:18question him with red eyes
04:20about why he was protecting another woman.
04:22But this time, I didn't even give them half a glance.
04:26Without stopping,
04:27I walked straight toward a waiter in the banquet hall.
04:30I picked up a glass of champagne from the waiter's tray
04:33and took a small sip.
04:34The cold liquid slid down my throat,
04:37suppressing the very last bit of affection in my heart.
04:40Eleanor, aren't you going to do something about it?
04:43Someone asked me in a very low voice.
04:46I smiled, but there was not a hint of a smile in my eyes.
04:49Young Master Ashfield is standing up for a beauty.
04:52Why would I go over there and interfere?
04:55Besides,
04:55I swirled the wine glass in my hand
04:58with a bit of a spectator's look in my eyes.
05:00I'm also quite curious to see if Sebastian's name
05:04is actually in the raffle box this year.
05:07Sebastian's body instantly stiffened.
05:09He subconsciously turned to look at me
05:12as if completely unexpected
05:14that I would have this reaction.
05:15In the past,
05:16at times like this,
05:18I would have already been crying
05:19and making a scene to drive Lillian away.
05:21But today,
05:22I was as quiet as someone
05:24entirely unconnected to this matter.
05:27A flash of impatience crossed his eyes.
05:29He let go of Lillian
05:31and strode toward me.
05:34Eleanor,
05:35what kind of temper are you throwing again?
05:37Lillian just came back from Switzerland.
05:39Her health is poor
05:41and she can't be frightened.
05:42You are the eldest daughter of the Walker family.
05:45Can't you be a bit broad-minded?
05:47Broad-minded,
05:48I looked at this man in front of me
05:49whom I had loved for over a decade.
05:52Suddenly,
05:53he felt very foreign.
05:54Seven years.
05:56More than 2,500 days a night.
05:59To cater to his preferences,
06:00I put away my own temper and skills,
06:02learning to make him French desserts
06:04and English afternoon tea.
06:06To get his name to appear in that damn box,
06:09I bribed the Ashford's butler,
06:10curried favour with Sebastian's mother
06:13and exhausted all possible means.
06:15And the result?
06:16What I got in exchange was his phrase
06:18be a bit more broad-minded
06:20and my sincere heart
06:21shredded to pieces in the paper shredder.
06:24Sebastian.
06:25I put down the wine glass in my hand.
06:27The glass clinked crisply
06:28against the marble table.
06:29I am not throwing a temper.
06:31I just think you are right.
06:33Miss Lillian is delicate
06:35and does indeed need someone
06:37to properly accompany her
06:39through her treatment.
06:40Sebastian was stunned.
06:41He stared into my eyes
06:42as if trying to find a hint of petulance
06:45or jealousy in them.
06:47Unfortunately, he found nothing.
06:49My heart was completely peaceful
06:50without a single ripple.
06:52This feeling of being out of his control
06:53made him inexplicably panicked.
06:55He reached out trying to grab my wrist.
06:58It's good that you understand.
07:01After tonight, next year.
07:03There is no next year.
07:04I turned sideways, dodging his hand.
07:06My tone was as flat
07:08as if discussing today's weather.
07:09My grandfather said
07:10the same thing can only be done
07:12at most eight times.
07:14Tonight is the eighth time.
07:16If your name is still not drawn,
07:18then we are done.
07:19Seeing this,
07:20Lillian quickly walked over
07:21and stood in front of me.
07:23Eleanor, stop throwing a tantrum
07:25and just apologize to Sebastian.
07:27He still loves you deep down.
07:30It's just that since I returned,
07:32my actions have been so unstable.
07:34And he is just worried about me.
07:37Besides, everyone knows
07:38that you would never marry anyone
07:40but Sebastian.
07:43As soon as her voice fell,
07:45a crisp slap suddenly sounded.
07:46My eyes were full of mockery.
07:48When is it an outsider's turn
07:50to dictate my affairs?
07:52Sebastian's face suddenly changed
07:53and he stepped directly
07:55in front of Lillian.
07:57Eleanor, you have gone too far.
08:00Apologize to Lillian.
08:01Apologize?
08:02On what grounds?
08:04Because she's your darling
08:05or because she's thick-shitted?
08:08Sebastian, have you forgotten
08:09that tonight is my home court?
08:10As long as the drawing
08:12haven't started,
08:13I am still your fiancé in name.
08:15What's the problem
08:15with teaching an outsider
08:17who doesn't know the rules
08:18a lesson?
08:19The surrounding guests
08:21began to whisper.
08:22Mrs. Ashford also hurried over
08:24upon hearing the commotion.
08:26Seeing this scene,
08:27she frowned deeply.
08:29What are you arguing about?
08:30Isn't this embarrassing?
08:32She glared at Sebastian,
08:33then looked at me.
08:34Her eyes were complex.
08:37Eleanor,
08:38it's almost time for the drawing.
08:39Don't let irrelevant people
08:41ruin the big event.
08:42Mrs. Ashford liked me very much.
08:44She genuinely hoped
08:45I could marry
08:46into the Ashford family.
08:47It was a pity.
08:48That good son of hers
08:50personally destroyed
08:51all of this.
08:52Sebastian took a deep breath,
08:53suppressing the anger
08:54in his heart.
08:55He reached out
08:56to put his arm
08:57around Lillian's shoulder
08:58and patted her comfortingly.
09:00Then he looked at me,
09:01his tone cold.
09:02Fine.
09:03Since you want to play
09:04so much, let's begin.
09:05I want to see the moment
09:07you draw a blank slip.
09:08Whether you can still be
09:10as sharp-tongued
09:11as you are now.
09:13After saying that,
09:14he turned and walked
09:15toward the high platform
09:16in the center of the hall.
09:18There lay an exquisite box.
09:20It was also the judgment stand
09:21that would decide my fate.
09:23I watched his back.
09:24My eyes gradually turned cold.
09:27Sebastian,
09:28you think you control everything.
09:30But little do you know,
09:31this time,
09:32you are the prey.
09:34In the center of the hall,
09:36the crystal lights were dazzling.
09:37Everyone's gaze focused
09:38on that carved oak box.
09:40According to family rules,
09:41there were a hundred slips
09:42of paper placed in the box.
09:44Only one of them
09:45had Sebastian's name
09:46written on it.
09:47Drawing it
09:47would be the arrangement of fate,
09:49resulting in an engagement
09:50on the spot.
09:51Failing to draw it
09:52meant fate hadn't arrived
09:54and we would try again next year.
09:55For the past seven years,
09:57every time,
09:58I reached my hand
09:59in full of hope.
10:00Every time.
10:01What I pulled out
10:02was completely blank.
10:03I thought it was
10:03just my bad luck.
10:04I thought it was God
10:05testing our relationship.
10:07It wasn't until today
10:08that I learned
10:09that among those
10:10hundred slips of paper,
10:11Sebastian's name
10:12was never there at all.
10:13They were all blank papers
10:14he had personally substituted.
10:16Eleanor, go on.
10:18I specifically asked
10:19the priest for a blessing.
10:21The priest said,
10:22you will find
10:23your beloved this year.
10:24Beloved, perhaps.
10:26It's just that this person
10:27is not Sebastian.
10:29Lifting my dress,
10:30I walked step by step
10:31onto the high platform.
10:32Sebastian stood next to the box,
10:35one hand in his pocket,
10:36looking proud.
10:36The way he looked at me
10:37was like looking
10:38at an unreasonable child.
10:40Eleanor,
10:40as long as you apologize
10:41to Lithian now,
10:43next year,
10:43I promise to let you
10:44draw the name.
10:45Wouldn't even need to
10:46wait until next year.
10:47As long as you behave
10:48and stop targeting Lillian,
10:50I can consider ending
10:51this game early.
10:52Game,
10:53in his eyes,
10:54these seven years of torment,
10:56my youth,
10:56my dignity,
10:57were nothing but a game
10:58he could call a halt
10:59to at any time.
11:00I stopped in my tracks.
11:02Standing across from him,
11:03there were only a few inches
11:04of distance between us,
11:06but our hearts were separated
11:07by an entire world.
11:09Sebastian.
11:10I looked into his eyes
11:11and asked softly,
11:12Do you really think
11:13I must marry you?
11:14Sebastian was taken aback
11:16for a moment,
11:16then he sneered out loud.
11:18Who else?
11:20Besides Moo could tolerate
11:21your bad temper.
11:22Besides the Ashford family
11:24who is worthy
11:24of your Walker family.
11:25Eleanor,
11:26accept your fate.
11:27In this life,
11:28you are destined
11:29to only be the woman
11:31of me,
11:32Sebastian Ashford.
11:33He was too confident.
11:34Confident to the point
11:35of conceit.
11:36He thought that by
11:37grasping my weakness,
11:38he could trample
11:39on my bottom line
11:40unscrupulously.
11:41I lowered my eyes,
11:42hiding the mockery
11:43in my gaze.
11:44Is that so?
11:46Then let's see.
11:47Exactly who is the one
11:48who should accept
11:49their fate?
11:50I took a deep breath,
11:52slowly raised my right hand,
11:53and reached into
11:55that pitch black box.
11:57My fingertips
11:57touched the cold paper.
11:59One slip,
12:00two slips,
12:01countless slips.
12:02Each one was like a knife.
12:04Cutting into my heart,
12:06there was absolute silence
12:07below the stage.
12:09Lillian stood at the
12:09forefront of the crowd,
12:10a victor's smile
12:12on her lip.
12:13She knew the box
12:13was full of blank papers.
12:15She was waiting to see me
12:16make a fool of myself
12:17in public
12:18and cry bitterly.
12:19Sebastian also
12:20looked away casually,
12:22seeming to have already
12:23foreseen the ending.
12:24I closed my eyes.
12:26My fingers fumbled
12:27at the bottom of the box.
12:28Finally,
12:29my fingertips
12:30touched a slip of paper
12:31with a slightly
12:32different texture.
12:33That was the one.
12:34I had someone slip in
12:36during the chaos
12:36before entering,
12:37and it was also
12:38the final way out
12:39I left for myself.
12:40I snapped my eyes open.
12:42With a strong flick
12:43of my wrist,
12:44I pulled out
12:45that slip of paper.
12:46Young Master Ashfield.
12:47I held up the slip
12:48in my hand,
12:49my voice clear,
12:50spreading throughout
12:51the hall.
12:52It seems
12:53your promise
12:54is about to become
12:56inviled.
12:57Sebastian's casual
12:58expression froze
12:59on his face.
13:00He subconsciously
13:01looked at the slip
13:02in my hand.
13:03A trace of confusion
13:04flashed in his eyes.
13:05Impossible.
13:06He clearly
13:06had personally
13:07replaced all the slips
13:08with names
13:09with blank ones,
13:10even just to be safe.
13:11Right before the banquet
13:12started,
13:13he had specifically
13:14checked again.
13:15There absolutely
13:16could not be
13:16any words in the box.
13:18Eleanor,
13:18who are you trying
13:19to scare
13:19with a blank piece
13:20of paper?
13:21He scoffed coldly.
13:22Stop making a scene
13:24and letting everyone
13:25laugh at us.
13:26Whether it's a blank
13:27paper or not,
13:28won't we know
13:28once it read out loud?
13:30A bright,
13:31radiant,
13:31smile curled
13:32at the corners
13:32of my lips.
13:34Since young master
13:35Ashford don't believe it,
13:36then invite a highly
13:38respected elder
13:39to read it.
13:40I looked at the patriarch
13:41of the Walker family
13:42below the stage.
13:43He was also my grandfather.
13:46Grandfather,
13:46please help your
13:47granddaughter check.
13:48Whose name
13:49is written on this?
13:51Grandfather leaned
13:51on his cane
13:52and tremblingly
13:53walked up to the stage.
13:55He took the slip
13:55from my hand,
13:57unfolded it.
13:58The eyes widened
13:59fiercely.
14:00Immediately after,
14:02he burst into a hearty laugh.
14:05Good.
14:05It's destiny.
14:06This is the arrangement
14:08of destiny.
14:09The unease in Sebastian's
14:11heart grew stronger
14:12and stronger.
14:13He abandoned all etiquette,
14:15rushing forward to see
14:16what was going on.
14:17Grandfather,
14:18let me see it.
14:20But Grandfather
14:21suddenly put away the slip,
14:23turned around,
14:24facing the hundreds
14:25of guests below.
14:26According to the century-old
14:28family rules
14:28of the Walker
14:29and Ashford families,
14:31Miss Eleanor Walker
14:32has successfully drawn
14:33her husband
14:33in the eighth
14:34destiny drawing.
14:36This is the arrangement
14:37of destiny.
14:38The whole crowd
14:39was in an uproar.
14:40Mrs. Ashford
14:41was moved to tears.
14:42The smile on Lillian's
14:43face stiffened,
14:44her nails digging deeply
14:45into her flesh.
14:47Sebastian was struck
14:48as if by lightning.
14:49Impossible!
14:50The box clearly!
14:51The words reached his lips,
14:53but he forcefully
14:54swallowed them back down.
14:56He couldn't say it.
14:57Saying it would mean
14:58admitting he cheated.
14:59It would mean admitting
15:00he lied to Eleanor.
15:02He took a deep breath,
15:03forcing himself
15:04to calm down.
15:05Grandfather,
15:06did you misread it?
15:07How is this possible?
15:09Why is it impossible?
15:10I took the slip back
15:11from Grandfather's home,
15:13slowly unfolded it,
15:14displaying it
15:15in front of everyone,
15:16black ink on white paper.
15:17The strokes were vigorous
15:18and powerful,
15:20clearly light.
15:20Alexander Thorne.
15:28A dead silence,
15:30even more terrifying
15:30than before.
15:31The colour in Sebastian's face
15:33instantly drained away.
15:34He stared deadly
15:35at those two words.
15:37Alexander Thorne.
15:38This is impossible.
15:40How could his name
15:41be in the box?
15:42Your box can only
15:43have my name!
15:44He bellowed out of control,
15:46like an enraged lion.
15:47I watched his crazy behaviour,
15:49and only felt
15:50it was laughable.
15:51Young Master Ashford,
15:53the family rules
15:54only say to draw a slip
15:56to decide a husband.
15:57But they never said
15:58that this box
16:00can only hold
16:01the name of you.
16:03Sebastian Ashford
16:04alone!
16:05I turned around,
16:07looking into the corner
16:08of the crowd,
16:08at the man
16:09who had remained silent
16:10all along,
16:11yet stood tall
16:12and straight
16:12like a pine.
16:13Mr. Thorne,
16:14since this is the
16:15arrangement of destiny,
16:17I wonder if you are
16:18willing
16:19to marry me
16:21as your wife.
16:24The crowd automatically
16:26parted to make a path.
16:27All eyes converged
16:28on that corner.
16:29Alexander Thorne.
16:30Wall Street's most low-key,
16:32yet also most
16:33mysterious billionaire.
16:34It was said he was
16:35ruthless and stayed
16:36away from women.
16:37He was the Ashford group's
16:38biggest mortal enemy
16:39in the global market.
16:40No one expected
16:41that his name
16:42would appear
16:42in the Walker family's
16:43raffle box
16:44and even less expected
16:45that I would propose
16:46to him in public.
16:47Alexander walked up
16:48to the high platform
16:49step by step.
16:50Every step seemed
16:51to trample on the very
16:52tip of Sebastian's heart
16:53until he stood
16:54in front of me.
16:55He finally stopped.
16:56Reflected in his deep eyes
16:58was my current disheveled
16:59yet resolute appearance.
17:00Miss Walker.
17:01His voice was deep
17:02and magnetic,
17:03carrying a trace
17:04of imperceptible indulgence.
17:06You were the one
17:07who said it
17:08in front of all the elites
17:09of New York.
17:11No going back
17:12on your word.
17:13My heart trembled.
17:14Actually,
17:15I wasn't familiar with him.
17:17I had only heard his name
17:18and knew he didn't
17:19get along with Sebastian.
17:20Putting his name in
17:21was purely to take
17:22revenge on Sebastian
17:23and also to find myself
17:25a sufficiently powerful backer.
17:27I didn't expect
17:28that he would agree
17:29so readily.
17:29I absolutely won't
17:30go back on it.
17:31Alexander hooked his lips
17:32into a smile.
17:33In that instant,
17:35he reached out
17:35to take the slip
17:36from my hand,
17:37carefully folded it,
17:38and placed it
17:39in the pocket
17:39closest to his heart.
17:41Then,
17:41right in front of Sebastian,
17:43he went down
17:44on one knee,
17:44took out an already prepared
17:46diamond ring
17:47from his pocket.
17:48Eleanor Walker,
17:49marry me.
17:50I will make you
17:51the happiest woman
17:52in all of New York.
17:54The whole venue exploded.
17:55This reversal came too fast,
17:57too thrilling.
17:58Sebastian went
17:58completely crazy
17:59and he upended
18:00the lottery box.
18:02Alexander,
18:03you're asking for death.
18:04Eleanor is my fiancé.
18:06What right
18:07do you have
18:07to propose?
18:08The box overturned
18:09on the ground.
18:10The slips of paper
18:11inside scattered
18:11all over the floor.
18:13Sebastian acted
18:13like he had caught
18:14a lifesaver.
18:15He squatted down
18:16to pick up those slips.
18:17I want everyone
18:18to see.
18:18These are all
18:19blank papers inside.
18:21It is you,
18:21Eleanor,
18:22who cheated.
18:23You teamed up
18:23with an outsider
18:24to humiliate me.
18:25He grabbed a handful
18:26of slips
18:26and held them up
18:27in front of everyone.
18:28Look!
18:29They are all empty!
18:31There are no names
18:32at all!
18:32This drawing
18:33doesn't count!
18:34However,
18:36the next second,
18:37his voice came
18:37to an abrupt halt
18:38because he saw
18:39on that floor
18:40full of slips
18:41every slip of paper
18:42bore the same
18:43single sentence.
18:44I don't love you anymore.
18:46Sebastian's hands
18:46began to tremble.
18:48The slips in his hand
18:49slipped away.
18:49He looked up
18:50in disbelief,
18:51looking at me
18:52standing condescendingly
18:53above him,
18:53his eyes full of terror
18:54and despair.
18:55Eleanor!
18:56You!
18:57I took Alexander's arm,
18:58looking coldly
18:59at the man on the ground.
19:00Sebastian,
19:01I said it
19:02the eighth time.
19:03If you're still
19:04not in the box,
19:06then I will marry
19:06someone else.
19:08Now,
19:08you can get lost.
19:09Sebastian slumped
19:10on the floor,
19:11surrounded entirely
19:12by slips of paper
19:13that read,
19:13I don't love you anymore.
19:15No.
19:16It is not like this.
19:18He muttered to himself,
19:19trying to find a slip
19:20with his name
19:21written on it
19:21from the floor.
19:22Even if it was just one,
19:23it could prove
19:24I still had him
19:25in my heart.
19:26Unfortunately,
19:27not a single one.
19:28Eleanor!
19:30You lied to me!
19:31He suddenly raised his head,
19:33his eyes crimson.
19:34You clearly loved me so much.
19:35How could you not love me?
19:37Is it because of Lillian?
19:39Is it because I replaced
19:40the names with blank paper?
19:42I will change.
19:43I will not replace them anymore.
19:45I will write my name on them
19:46right now!
19:47He frantically pulled out
19:48a fountain pen,
19:49grabbed a slip from the floor,
19:51and was about to write.
19:52Enough!
19:53Alexander stepping on the hand
19:54he was holding the pen with.
19:56Young Master Ashford,
19:57harassing my fiancé
19:59right in front of me.
20:00Are you not completely
20:01ignoring my existence?
20:05He looked up
20:06and glared angrily
20:07at Alexander.
20:08What kind of thing are you?
20:10Eleanor and I
20:11grew up together.
20:12You are nothing
20:13but a petty man
20:14taking advantage
20:15of a vulnerable moment.
20:17Grew up together?
20:18Alexander let out a scoff,
20:20applying pressure
20:20with his foot,
20:21crushing Sebastian's knuckles
20:23until they crack.
20:24Does growing up together
20:25mean making her wait
20:26three hours in a blizzard
20:27for you?
20:28Does growing up together
20:29mean making her
20:29make a fool of herself
20:30in public for seven years?
20:32Does growing up together
20:34mean putting her sincere heart
20:35into a paper shredder?
20:37Sebastian's face
20:37was deathly pale.
20:39How do you know?
20:41About the paper shredder.
20:42Only he and Lillian knew.
20:44How could Alexander know?
20:45I looked at his horrified expression
20:47and spoke faintly.
20:48Because I heard it too, Sebastian.
20:51Right before the banquet started,
20:52at the door of the lounge.
20:54Every word you said
20:55I heard clearly!
20:57Sebastian's whole body shook,
20:58as if all his strength
20:59had been drained away.
21:01Eleanor,
21:02listen to my explanation.
21:03He crawled over,
21:05wanting to grab
21:05the hem of my dress.
21:06I was lying to Lillian.
21:08I only told those lies
21:09to comfort Lillian.
21:11I only have you in my heart.
21:13I promise to give you
21:14a grand proposal next year.
21:16Believe me this once.
21:17Okay?
21:18I took a step back,
21:19avoiding his hand.
21:21My eyes looked at him
21:22as if looking at a pile of garbage.
21:24Lie to Lillian?
21:25So in order to lie to her,
21:27you had to sacrifice me?
21:29Sebastian,
21:30your love is too cheap.
21:31Lie to Lillian?
21:32So in order to lie to her,
21:34you had to sacrifice me?
21:36Sebastian,
21:37your love is too cheap.
21:39I,
21:40Eleanor Walker,
21:41no longer want you.
21:43After finishing my sentence,
21:44I didn't give him another glance.
21:46Holding Alexander's hand,
21:47I turned and left.
21:49Sebastian,
21:50you are bleeding.
21:51Quick,
21:51call a doctor.
21:52It is a sin.
21:53What a sin.
21:54My footsteps didn't stop,
21:56walking out the doors
21:57of the banquet hall.
21:58The night breeze
21:59was slightly cool,
22:00blowing away the noise
22:01and foulness inside.
22:03Are you cold?
22:03I shook my head.
22:05Alexander?
22:06Hmm?
22:07Thank you.
22:08You are welcome.
22:09He squeezed my hand tightly,
22:11his palm warm.
22:13Eleanor.
22:15The good show
22:16has only just begun.
22:17Sebastian became
22:18Wall Street's biggest joke.
22:20The heir publicly rejected,
22:22the fiancé marrying
22:23his mortal enemy.
22:24The Ashford group's stock
22:25crashed the next day.
22:26The Walkers withdrew capital
22:27and the Thorn group attacked.
22:29The Ashford family
22:30teetered on collapse.
22:31Mrs. Ashford was hospitalized.
22:33Mr. Ashford threatened
22:34to disown Sebastian.
22:36Meanwhile,
22:37I sat in Alexander's
22:38private villa,
22:39startled by the documents
22:40in my hands.
22:41Are these real?
22:42I pointed at photos
22:43of Lillian partying
22:44on a yacht,
22:45embracing them,
22:46with no sign of illness.
22:47Absolutely true.
22:48During those seven years
22:49in Switzerland,
22:50she squandered his money,
22:51keeping male models,
22:53gambling,
22:54taking drugs.
22:55I felt utterly disgusted.
22:57Sebastian played the fool
22:58and hurt me for seven years
22:59because of her.
23:00Does Sebastian know?
23:01He'll know very soon.
23:02Alexander smiled slyly.
23:04I served justice
23:05for everyone
23:05in the Ashford family.
23:07I gasped
23:08at the ruthless news.
23:09Lillian would have
23:10no place left
23:11and Sebastian
23:12would be entirely abandoned.
23:13Alexander leaned closer.
23:15Are you worried about him?
23:17Not at all.
23:18He brought this upon himself
23:19and you personally
23:21sent him to his doom.
23:23Alexander laughed,
23:24scraping my nose.
23:25Such a sweet mouth.
23:27Clearing obstacles for you
23:29is what a husband
23:30ought to do.
23:31Just then,
23:32my phone rang.
23:33It was Sebastian.
23:34I answered on speaker.
23:36Eleanor,
23:36are you with Alexander?
23:38Do you know
23:38what about her?
23:39I interrupted
23:40indifferently.
23:41Was she kicked
23:42out of her apartment?
23:43You knew she was lying?
23:45Why didn't you tell me?
23:46I laughed out of anger.
23:47If I told you,
23:48you would just think
23:49I was jealous.
23:50Now that the truth is bare,
23:51you don't reflect
23:52your stupidity
23:52but blame me?
23:53The phone went silent,
23:54save for heavy breathing.
23:56Finally,
23:57Sebastian spoke hoarsely.
23:58Eleanor,
23:59I was wrong.
24:01I kicked Libony out.
24:02Come back, okay?
24:03I will marry you immediately
24:04and listen to you
24:05for everything.
24:06I looked at the sunlight,
24:07feeling immense irony.
24:09Deep affection
24:09that comes too late
24:10is worthless.
24:11Sebastian,
24:12it's too late.
24:14I am now Mrs. Thorne.
24:16The words
24:16Mrs. Thorne
24:17shattered his last hope.
24:19He smashed the phone,
24:20leaving only a busy tone.
24:22Satisfied?
24:23Not yet.
24:23This is just the start.
24:25Days later,
24:26Alexander launched
24:27a fierce commercial attack,
24:28seizing Ashford's asset.
24:30Sebastian begged for help,
24:31but former friends
24:32all avoided him.
24:33Our engagement party
24:34became the talk of the city.
24:35On its eve,
24:36I went to try on
24:37my wedding dress.
24:38Outside the boutique,
24:39Lillian blocked my way.
24:40She looked haggard
24:41in shabby clothes.
24:43Eleanor,
24:44you ruined me!
24:45She screamed
24:45and lunged at me.
24:46Bodyguards held her down
24:47at once.
24:49Greed,
24:50vanity,
24:50and lies
24:51destroyed yourself.
24:53Liar!
24:53Sebastian loves only me!
24:55You are just a substitute too!
24:57She retorted.
24:58I pitied her ignorance.
25:00He loves no one
25:01but himself.
25:02He enjoyed being fought over.
25:04Now his pride is hurt,
25:06and that is why he is crazy.
25:08Lillian stared blankly.
25:09I told the guards
25:09to send her away.
25:10We are all fools!
25:12She cried bitterly.
25:13Just then,
25:14Sebastian arrived
25:15in a Bentley,
25:15worn out.
25:16This dress was meant for me!
25:18He said painfully.
25:18I ignored him
25:19and got into Alexander's car.
25:21Do not marry him!
25:23Sebastian shouted desperately.
25:25The car drove off,
25:26leaving him stranded
25:27in the cold wind.
25:28The engagement party
25:29was lavish,
25:29held at Manhattan's
25:30top hotel.
25:31Alexander stayed close to me,
25:33caring for me tenderly,
25:34making other guests envious.
25:36As we prepared
25:36to exchange rings,
25:38Sebastian burst in,
25:39drunk and messy.
25:40Stop this engagement!
25:42Alexander let him
25:43come forward.
25:44Sebastian stumbled
25:45onto the stage.
25:46Take off that ring.
25:48I will give you
25:49everything I have.
25:50He said,
25:51holding out
25:51a crumpled bank card.
25:52You are bankrupt.
25:53This card cannot
25:54even buy alcohol.
25:56I replied calmly.
25:56I have lost
25:57my family,
25:58company,
25:59and money.
26:01But I still have you.
26:03Will you not
26:03stay with me?
26:04Alexander stepped
26:05between us.
26:06Respect yourself.
26:08She is my fiancé,
26:09not your savior.
26:10Sebastian was pushed
26:11to the ground
26:12and wept like a child.
26:13The crowd looked
26:14on with scorn.
26:15No apology
26:15can fix everything.
26:17You chose this path
26:18and you have
26:19to see it through,
26:20I told him.
26:21I turned to Alexander.
26:23Put the ring on me.
26:24He slipped the diamond ring
26:25onto my finger.
26:26The ceremony ended.
26:27Sebastian stood in the corner,
26:29finally accepting
26:30he had lost me forever.
26:31Three years later,
26:32heavy snow covered New York.
26:34Our daughter was just
26:35a month old
26:36and Alexander doted
26:37on her deeply.
26:39It is time for work.
26:41Not today.
26:42My daughter comes first.
26:44I heard Sebastian
26:46passed away.
26:47He froze to death
26:48under the Brooklyn Bridge
26:49together with Lillian.
26:51They fought over a burger
26:53and fell into the river.
26:54I fell silent.
26:55Once prominent figures,
26:56they ended up miserably.
26:58It was their just deserts.
26:59Are you thinking of him?
27:00I kissed him with a smile.
27:04I am planning
27:05a candlelit dinner tonight.
27:06His mood brightened at once.
27:08He held our daughter
27:09in one arm
27:09and wrapped the other
27:10around me.
27:11Thank you for choosing me.
27:13Thank you for giving me
27:14a home.
27:16Leaning on his chest,
27:17the snow fell harder,
27:18burying the sad past.
27:20Our warm and happy life
27:21had only just begun.
