Short filmTranscript
00:03Madison's baby needs a father on paper.
00:05Once the papers are done and the divorce is final, I'll marry you.
00:09Everyone thought I would swallow my pride and wait another month.
00:11After all, I had already waited seven years.
00:14That night, I left the country for an arranged marriage.
00:17I vanished from his world completely.
00:19Three years later, I returned with my husband for a family memorial.
00:22At the last minute, he was called away to handle a problem in one of his territories.
00:25So he ordered one of his men from the local crew to pick me up.
00:28I stepped out of the airport and froze.
00:30Standing beside the car was Ethan Hayes, my ex-fiance.
00:34Back then, Ethan had been nothing.
00:36Judging by his suit and the men around him, he had clearly moved up in the local crew.
00:39Ethan, isn't that your obsessed ex? Isn't that Natalie?
00:43See? I told you guys she would come crawling back.
00:46Natalie disappeared for three years. Not a call, not a text.
00:49And now Ethan finally has power and look who suddenly found her way back.
00:52She probably spent every night stalking his socials and crying into a cheap pillow.
00:55Natalie, if you're trying to stage a dramatic reunion, sweatpanks were a bold choice.
01:00Couldn't you at least brush your hair first?
01:02Or did life without ethos get so bad you stopped trying altogether?
01:05You look like you came here to beg for protection, not make a comeback.
01:08It was true.
01:08I used to spend hours getting ready for Ethan.
01:10I always made sure I looked absolutely perfect for him.
01:13But I did not need to do that anymore.
01:14I was pregnant, so my husband would not let me wear makeup.
01:17He wanted me to wear whatever felt comfortable.
01:19He even had this plain-looking loungewear custom-tailored for me in Paris.
01:22Listening to them mock me, it suddenly clicked.
01:25They knew they had been ordered to pick up Don Moretti's woman.
01:27But they had no idea that woman was me.
01:29A former acquaintance of mine hurried to diffuse the tension.
01:32Anyway, it's nice having you back.
01:34Ethan actually spent years looking for you.
01:36He asked all over about you.
01:38Ethan's face stiffened for a second.
01:39Then he acted like nothing had happened.
01:41Madison's kid starts preschool next week.
01:43From now on, you're in charge of drop-off and pick-up.
01:45He was still incredibly arrogant.
01:47But I was not that naive little girl anymore.
01:49Seeing him only filled me with annoyance.
01:51I did not want to waste another second on them.
01:53I was just about to tell them exactly who I was.
01:55Natalie, don't blame Ethan for this.
01:57He's only trying to look out for you.
01:59You disappeared for three years.
02:00Who knows what kind of shady things you had to do to survive.
02:04Look at you.
02:05Life really chewed you up.
02:06Ethan even wanted to give you a job as my personal assistant.
02:09But clearly, that would be too much for you.
02:11Don't worry.
02:12Being my Narcy is honest work.
02:14No one's going to look down on you for that.
02:15Ethan saw my face and thought I was jealous.
02:17Natalie, drop the attitude.
02:19You clearly couldn't make it on your own.
02:21So stop making a scene.
02:23Take care of the kid and learn your place.
02:25Don't worry.
02:26We still have a spare room for the nanny downstairs.
02:29Natalie, look how good Ethan is to you.
02:31He's giving you free room and board.
02:33Isn't babysitting better than whatever life you've been scraping by on?
02:36Hurry up and say thank you.
02:38Don't worry, dear.
02:39If my son acts up, I'll make sure he behaves.
02:42I won't let anyone give you a hard time.
02:44Give me a break.
02:45Who's giving her a hard time?
02:46She disappeared over one tiny misunderstanding.
02:48If life got rough out there, maybe she needed the lesson.
02:50Hearing that, my heart actually skipped a beat.
02:52Even now, he still thought abandoning me at City Hall for Madison was only a tiny misunderstanding.
02:57The Ethan who used to love me was truly dead.
03:00He was no longer the boy who carried me across town while ignoring his own bleeding wounds.
03:04But whatever that love had been, it was all in the past.
03:06None of it mattered anymore.
03:08After all, I was about to give birth to my second baby anyway.
03:10Aren't you here to pick me up?
03:11Let's go.
03:12The scene went quiet for a moment.
03:14Several people exchanged looks.
03:15Then, they suddenly burst into laughter.
03:17Madison laughed like I had told a joke.
03:20Waiting for you?
03:22Do you even deserve that?
03:24Read the sign.
03:25Mrs. Moretti is the lady of the Moretti family.
03:28Do you even know who that is?
03:30Mrs. Morelli is the lady of the Morelli family.
03:33She is Damon Morelli's lawful wife.
03:35And Don Morelli is a ruthless mafia boss, but in private, he is deeply devoted.
03:40People say he refused to get married back then because he was waiting for her.
03:43Everyone in this city knows this.
03:45Don't bother sucking up to Damon.
03:47Suck up to Mrs. Moretti.
03:49She is his entire world.
03:51Listening to them gossip about my marriage, I could not help smiling.
03:54A genuine smile spread across my face.
03:56After three years of marriage, Damon's business had grown bigger and bigger.
04:00And his reputation as a fiercely devoted husband had spread everywhere.
04:03Madison had always wanted to stand above me.
04:05She would never miss a chance to show off in front of me.
04:07To spoil his wife, Damon Moretti once bought a diamond bracelet at Christie's.
04:13It's called Eternal Heart.
04:14It costs $20 million.
04:16Mrs. Morell is literally the most envied woman on earth.
04:20That's the exact same bracelet.
04:21Ethan grabbed my hand and looked at the bracelet.
04:23It's a pretty good fake.
04:24What broke delivery guy bought you this?
04:27A cheap knockoff as a gift?
04:30Pathetic.
04:32It really is a high quality fake.
04:34Way better than the replica I bought.
04:37But I'd never wear mine in public.
04:38That would be humiliating.
04:41Foreign knockoffs really are something.
04:43The weight almost feels real.
04:45Wait.
04:47Don't tell me you're saying you're the real Mrs. Moretti.
04:50Natalie, are you seriously claiming you're the legendary Dawn's wife?
04:56Natalie, why don't you sell me this fake?
04:58I'll pay you double whatever that broke delivery guy paid.
05:02Give that back right now.
05:04Damon gave that to me.
05:09Shut your mouth!
05:12Natalie, are you trying to get us both killed?
05:15You think you can just casually drop Don Moretti's name?
05:18Are you trying to drag me down with you?
05:20His friends immediately joined in.
05:22Do you have any idea how hard we fought for this airport pickup?
05:26Don Moretti put Ethan's business under his protection last year.
05:29Now all of us survive under Morty protection.
05:31The only way Ethan keeps his place in the Marotti circle is if we impress Mrs. Marotti.
05:38And you're out here spreading insane rumors about knowing him?
05:41Are you trying to ruin Ethan's career?
05:43I wiped the blood from my split lip.
05:45My stare must have been ice cold because Ethan frowned.
05:48A trace of panic flashed through his eyes.
05:51Natalie, you ungrateful little...
05:55Ethan was kind enough to keep you off the street.
05:58Don't push your luck.
06:00I know you're bitter about the past, but trying to wreck his career just to get back at him?
06:06That's... that's sick.
06:08Hearing her say that felt exactly like three years ago.
06:11No matter what I did, Madison twisted it.
06:14She would feed Ethan her poisoned version of the truth.
06:16In the early days, he used to defend me.
06:19But by the end, he always took her side.
06:21Just like right now.
06:22You're such a bitter, jealous woman.
06:25But this time, Ethan did not keep yelling at me.
06:27For the sake of what we used to be, I'll let this slide.
06:30Take the cash.
06:31Go buy yourself something decent to wear.
06:33If you really don't want a nanny Madison's kid, I'll pull some strings and get you a proper job next
06:37week.
06:37Don't worry, ever since the Moretti protection, this kind of money is pocket shush in my world now.
06:41The way he handed me that check made me sick.
06:43No, thank you, sir.
06:44I don't take handouts from strangers.
06:46Ignoring Ethan's furious face, I turned and left.
06:49But he grabbed me before I could take a few steps.
06:51Natalie, I gave you money and you still refused.
06:53What do you mean?
06:54I'm a stranger to you.
06:56Since we've already broken up, it's better not to have any contact.
06:59Otherwise, people might misunderstand.
07:01The Moretti family is hosting a private gala for Don Moretti in three days.
07:06I plan to take you there to see the world.
07:08But you need to buy a proper outfit first.
07:12Don't embarrass me when the time comes.
07:13There really is no needed.
07:15Ethan clenched his jaw so hard I could hear it.
07:17Natalie, you really have learned some attitude.
07:21Sure enough, poor people always have the worst temper.
07:25Since you don't want to go, forget it.
07:27I'll take Madison.
07:28Hearing that Ethan wanted to bring her to the dinner.
07:30Ethan, I'll behave well.
07:32I absolutely won't embarrass you.
07:34I didn't want to keep getting tangled up with them.
07:36I turned and strode away.
07:38Before leaving, I left one sentence behind.
07:40I hope that in three days, you can still be this confident.
07:42My mind flashed back to three years ago.
07:45My parents had been pressuring me into an arranged marriage overseas.
07:47I fought them on it.
07:49I could not marry that man, I thought.
07:51I begged Ethan, my boyfriend of seven years.
07:53Ethan, just elope with me.
07:55Let's leave here.
07:56But when I showed up, he'd brought his childhood sweetheart, Madison, to marry.
07:59Her child needs a legal father.
08:01I will divorce Madison in a month, then marry you.
08:04He told me not to overthink it.
08:05Watching him hold her hand and walk into that clerk's office, I was completely done.
08:09I flew overseas for a blind date that very night.
08:11A month later, I married Damon Moretti.
08:14A year later, we had our first baby.
08:15And now I was pregnant with our second.
08:17Honestly, if it had not been for Damon's family memorial,
08:20I never would have set foot back in this country.
08:22And I definitely would not have run into Ethan.
08:24Three days later, I showed up to the Moretti charity gala alone.
08:27I wore light makeup and my custom loungewear.
08:29The second Ethan saw me, his eyes lit up.
08:32You said you wouldn't come.
08:34But your body is honest.
08:35If you want to chase me and make me turn back, you at least need to make me happy.
08:39For an occasion like today, you need to dress properly.
08:42Only then can you match my status.
08:44I ignored him.
08:45Ethan grabbed my arm.
08:46Natalie, I'm talking to you.
08:47Did you hear me?
08:48Our seats are right here.
08:49Where do you think you're going?
08:50Those are your seats.
08:51My seat is over there.
08:53Madison's eyes turned sharp.
08:54Natalie, how did you sneak in here?
08:56Are you here to cause trouble?
08:59How dare you wear that bracelet?
09:01The guests around us began whispering.
09:02Wait, is that the eternal heart bracelet?
09:04Is this woman trying to insult Mrs. Moretti?
09:06She snuck in.
09:08Is she trying to embarrass us in front of Don Moretti?
09:11Excuse me, Ethan.
09:12Is this young lady with you?
09:14No.
09:14I don't know her.
09:15Madison lifted her chin.
09:16Take that fake bracelet off and get out.
09:19Are you sure you want me to leave?
09:21Madison realized people were watching her.
09:23What are you pretending for?
09:25Stop acting like you're important.
09:26Hurry up and take off the bracelet.
09:29You're really treating this cheap garbage like it's treasure.
09:32Madison pinned my hand under her heel.
09:34Pain shot through my hand.
09:35My wrist was scraped raw and bleeding, but I only sat there, staring blankly at the snapped bracelet.
09:40Madison crossed her arms.
09:42Pick her up and throw her out.
09:44A few security guards immediately surrounded me.
09:47They reached down to grab my arms.
09:48Get your hands off me!
09:50I am Demon Moretti's...
09:52Are you going to make up rumors again?
09:54Are you going to say you are Don Morelli's mistress now?
09:56You're insane.
09:57She backhanded me a second time.
09:58When I came back to the States this time, I had not planned to bother with revenge.
10:02It felt beneath me.
10:03I knew I was going to make sure she paid for this.
10:06Ethan crouched down in front of me.
10:08He reached out to touch my bleeding wrist.
10:10I pulled away.
10:11Natalie, are you done throwing your little fit?
10:13You showed up wearing a fake diamond bracelet and dressed like you rolled out of bed.
10:18Now that you see I'm doing well, you want to make me jealous?
10:20If you want me back, just beg.
10:23I'll say yes.
10:26Ethan, you are absolutely screwed.
10:29Suddenly, the entire ballroom went dead silent.
10:32The guests in the hall began fixing their clothes.
10:35Ethan quickly pulled me up and lowered his voice.
10:37Don Moretti is here.
10:38Behave yourself.
10:39And don't worry, Natalie.
10:41Madison and I are already divorced.
10:44I stared at him while rubbing my bruised hand.
10:46This man was absolutely repulsive.
10:48What did his divorce have to do with me?
10:50At that exact moment, Damon walked through the doors.
10:52Everyone surrounded him the moment he came in.
10:54He was holding our toddler in his arms.
10:56Once they entered the ballroom, my son squirmed to get down.
10:59Damon set him on the floor.
11:01The adorable little boy instantly captured the whole room's attention.
11:04If you stop being jealous and stop provoking Madison,
11:07I'll forgive you for disappearing for three years.
11:09I'll give you a chance to bear our baby.
11:11I did not speak.
11:12I only looked past him, trying to catch Damon and my son's eyes through the crowd.
11:16Then it happened.
11:17Finally, Damon followed our son's steps.
11:19They walked to me.
11:20At that moment, panic appeared on his face.
11:22He ran straight into my arms.
11:25Mommy, who hurt you?
11:26The word mommy echoed through the silent room.
11:29Why is there so much blood?
11:31The guests who had coldly watched me get bullied just now all widened their eyes in disbelief.
11:35My son's warm hug instantly washed away my disgust.
11:39Mommy's fine, baby.
11:40He grabbed my bleeding hand and gently blew on the torn skin.
11:43Tears welled in his eyes.
11:45Mommy, who dared to do this to you?
11:47The air in the room seemed to freeze.
11:49A heavy, suffocating pressure settled over the crowd.
11:52Damon was walking toward us.
11:53The terrified guests parted for him.
11:55Ever since I got pregnant with our second baby, he had been almost insanely overprotective.
11:59I picked up our son and turned around.
12:02Daddy, someone bullied mommy.
12:05We have to get back at them.
12:07Damon stepped forward and gently lifted my injured wrist.
12:10His face went dangerously dark.
12:13Seeing this ruthless mafia boss become so fiercely protective made my heart melt.
12:17He was so protective.
12:18A mosquito bite.
12:19A tiny mark from sleep.
12:21If I ate half a spoonful less at dinner, he would worry instantly.
12:24But I loved how intensely he cared about me.
12:26The ballroom lights were dim, but our son felt something hard under his shoe.
12:29He bent down and picked up the largest sapphire from my broken bracelet.
12:32Daddy, isn't this the present you gave mommy?
12:35Damon took the sapphire and flipped it over.
12:37When he saw his own engraved initials, he looked at the scattered gems on the floor.
12:40Then he looked at my torn, bleeding wrist.
12:42His hand gripped the armrest of a nearby chair so hard the metal bent under his fingers.
12:46Frustrated by the shadows, he firmly guided me into the chair.
12:49Turn on every single light in this room.
12:53What happened to your face?
12:55They actually dare to do this to you?
12:57I'm fine, Damon.
12:59Natalie, I am your husband.
13:00No one touches my wife and walks away clean.
13:03No one bullies mommy.
13:04Honestly, I could have handled Ethan and Madison myself, but maybe it was the pregnancy hormones.
13:08Or maybe it was because I finally felt safe.
13:11My voice suddenly cracked.
13:12All the exhaustion I had been holding in finally broke through.
13:15You weren't here.
13:17They all ganged up on me.
13:18The guys from the airport were literally shaking.
13:21They gripped the cocktail tables just to stay upright.
13:23The woman they had mocked at the airport was actually Don Moretti's wife.
13:27They were desperate to find a hole to crawl into.
13:30But then Madison's little minion, Brooke, strutted out of the crowd.
13:33Natalie, where did you hire these two actors?
13:35Their acting is pretty good.
13:36Do you want Madison to get them an agent?
13:38You're clearly too broke to afford your own clothes.
13:40I have an outfit I already wore once.
13:42If you don't mind, I can give it to you so you won't embarrass yourself.
13:44Brooke had arrived late.
13:45She had completely missed Damon's terrifying entrance.
13:48She was just Madison's lapdog, dressed up to snag a rich husband tonight.
13:52And she knew the easiest way to impress Madison was to bully me.
13:56Brooke laughed loudly at her own joke.
13:58Usually the guys would have laughed along with her immediately.
14:00But this time, the entire ballroom stared at her like she had a death wish.
14:04Brooke noticed the dead silence, but she doubled down.
14:07She looked right at Damon and smirked.
14:10You're pretty handsome.
14:11If you leave Natalie, I might just keep you for myself.
14:14Her words made the corner of my mouth twitch.
14:17How embarrassing.
14:18She actually thought she could keep Damon Moretti.
14:20I honestly did not know if she was incredibly brave or incredibly stupid.
14:24Anyone with functioning eyes could tell Damon was not someone you messed with.
14:28Damon gave a low, humorless laugh.
14:30If I offered to keep him, he would probably be thrilled.
14:32But if any other woman said that, he would only think she was asking to die.
14:36Over the years, any woman who tried to throw herself at him was either never heard from again,
14:40or sent somewhere far away, and never allowed near him again.
14:43Brooke finally realized the vibe was completely wrong.
14:46She nervously stepped toward Madison for backup.
14:48But Madison wanted absolutely nothing to do with her.
14:51Before Brooke could even speak, Madison spun around and slapped her viciously across the face.
14:55Brooke crashed hard onto the marble floor.
14:58Brooke, are you insane?
15:01How dare you offend Mr. and Mrs. Moretti?
15:05Do you have a death wish?
15:07Natalie is Mrs. Moretti.
15:09You offended Damon Moretti.
15:11Brooke knew Damon's ruthless reputation.
15:14She knew he destroyed anyone who even looked at his wife the wrong way.
15:17Brooke started shaking uncontrollably.
15:19Oh my god, look at her dress!
15:21Every eye in the room dropped.
15:23Brooke had wet herself in pure terror.
15:25Damon did not even blink.
15:26He only frowned slightly.
15:28Two massive bodyguards immediately stepped forward and dragged Brooke out of the ballroom.
15:33Ethan and Madison's faces burned bright red.
15:35Even though Brooke was the one being dragged out, everyone knew she had only said what they were thinking.
15:39The elite guests stared at Ethan and Madison with absolute disgust.
15:43They looked at them like clowns.
15:45Meanwhile, Damon's on-call doctor was frantically cleaning the torn skin on my wrist.
15:49I winced.
15:49It was just a tiny hiss of pain.
15:51Instantly, Damon and our son glared at the doctor like they were about to bury him alive.
15:55Do you even know how to apply ointment properly?
15:58I immediately shot my husband and son a stern, warning look.
16:01The glare worked instantly.
16:02The terrifying dawn and the fierce little boy both softened.
16:05Natalie.
16:08Mommy.
16:08They both looked at me with identical, pathetic puppy-dog eyes.
16:13Guys, the doctor is trying to help me.
16:15Stop glaring at him.
16:16With my reassurance, the doctor let out a huge breath of relief.
16:20He finished the checkup and turned to Damon.
16:22Mrs. Moretti is perfectly fine.
16:23The baby is safe, too.
16:24Her wrist is badly scraped, though.
16:26You're best oint to keep it from scarring.
16:28Damon did not say a single word.
16:29I knew exactly what that meant.
16:31That was the silence right before he exploded.
16:34Standing in the crowd, Ethan looked terrified.
16:36But under the panic, jealousy burned in his eyes as he watched us together.
16:40His possessiveness was reaching its peak.
16:41But his business's survival was on the line, so he had to bite his tongue.
16:45Damon stood beside me, looking out over the terrified crowd of guests and made men.
16:49He looked lethal.
16:50But honestly, I found it kind of cute.
16:52Especially with our son standing right beside him, looking like a tiny, angry clone.
16:56I want names.
16:57Every person who touched my wife, every person who watched it happen.
16:59Speak now, and I might let you walk out of here.
17:02But if I have to find out myself, the Morelli family will collect from every single one of you.
17:07It was a naked, terrifying threat.
17:09These people had fought tooth and nail just to get an invite to this gala.
17:13None of them were willing to burn for Ethan.
17:15Ethan panicked.
17:16He desperately stepped forward to save himself.
17:18Don Moretti, this is all just a huge misunderstanding.
17:22As Natalie's fiancé, I was only catching up with her.
17:26It was just an accident.
17:28I froze.
17:28He actually used the word fiancé right to my husband's face.
17:32He really thought I had spent the last three years saving myself for him.
17:37Waiting for him to snap his fingers so I could run back.
17:40He completely ignored the murderous look crossing Damon's face.
17:43Crap.
17:43I heard glass shatter.
17:45I whipped my head around.
17:46Damon had crushed his crystal whiskey glass with his bare hand.
17:49Blood dripped down his fingers.
17:50Damon!
17:51I grabbed his hand, horrified.
17:53Then I spun around and screamed at Ethan.
17:55Ethan, don't flatter yourself.
17:56Stop trying to come between me and Damon.
17:58I think I've been way too nice to you.
18:03Damon is the only man I love.
18:05I grabbed a clean napkin and frantically started wrapping Damon's bleeding hand.
18:08Ethan looked genuinely hurt.
18:10Natalie, I know you're bitter, but Madison and I are already divorced.
18:14Her kid can start calling you mom.
18:15You only married this guy to make me mad, right?
18:17It's fine.
18:18I don't mind.
18:19Divorce him!
18:20Let's get married.
18:21Whatever Damon can give you, I can give you too if I work hard enough.
18:23Just come back and be my son's nanny.
18:25If you don't like Madison, I'll make her leave.
18:28I honestly could not believe what I was hearing.
18:30His shamelessness left me speechless.
18:32Damon's blood stained my clothes.
18:34But as I urgently pressed the napkin to his palm,
18:36he suddenly started laughing.
18:38A genuine, happy laugh.
18:39I glared at him, furious.
18:41Why are you laughing?
18:43Damon reached over with his clean, uninjured hand
18:45and gently rubbed the top of my head.
18:47Natalia, you just said I'm the one you love most.
18:50Our son literally rolled his eyes.
18:52His ruthless, terrifying dad
18:53was currently acting like a lovesick teenager
18:56just because I defended him.
18:57The entire ballroom was dead silent.
19:00Some guests were in absolute shock.
19:02Others were dying of envy.
19:03I could hear frantic whispers spreading through the crowd.
19:06The rumors are real.
19:07He really is completely obsessed with his wife.
19:10Ethan stood there, his fists clenched in humiliation.
19:13But my son was not done with him.
19:15Noah looked him up and down with absolute disgust.
19:18A nanny?
19:19My mommy is the princess of our house.
19:21You think you deserve her?
19:22Mommy is only having two kids.
19:24Me and my little sister.
19:26You really think your secret little love child
19:28gets to call her mom?
19:29I know all about you.
19:31You're the jerk who broke my mom's heart.
19:34You're not as handsome as my dad.
19:36You're not as tall as my dad.
19:38You're not even built like my dad.
19:41And you smell cheap.
19:43It's making my eyes water.
19:45Is your kid gonna grow up to be a leech
19:47who lives off women just like you?
19:49The elite guests around us erupted into laughter.
19:52Ethan bit his lower lip hard,
19:54his chest heaved with shame.
19:55Everyone in that room knew the truth.
19:57He only had a place in the Moretti Circle
19:59because he leeched off Madison's family connections.
20:01Hearing all this,
20:02Madison completely snapped.
20:04Ethan had literally just asked me to replace her
20:06as his son's real mother.
20:07Jealousy swallowed whatever sanity she had left.
20:10Madison grabbed a silver fork from the nearest table.
20:12She lunged straight at Noah.
20:14You little brat!
20:17I'll kill you!
20:20I did not even think.
20:21I let go of Damon's hand
20:22and threw myself over my son.
20:24A blinding, agonizing pain ripped through my back.
20:28The color drained completely from my face.
20:30Noah, where are you?
20:31I did not even get to finish the sentence.
20:34Everything went black.
20:35I collapsed to the floor.
20:36The last thing I saw was my son's terrified face.
20:39I woke up to the sharp smell of hospital disinfectant.
20:42I glanced down at my hospital gown
20:44and felt a little dazed.
20:46My best friend Claire threw her arms around me.
20:49Natalie, you're finally awake.
20:51If you had stayed unconscious any longer,
20:53your husband and son were going to turn this city upside down.
20:56I panicked and instantly touched my pregnant belly.
20:59Claire knew exactly what I was thinking.
21:01You're fine.
21:02The baby is perfectly fine.
21:04The doctor said you fainted from shock and pain
21:07after that psycho tried to stab your son.
21:08I started coughing violently.
21:10My throat was completely dry.
21:12Claire grabbed a cup of water and rubbed my back.
21:15Slow down.
21:15Drink.
21:18Honestly, Natalie, you were way too impulsive.
21:21You had ten bodyguards in that room.
21:22They would have stopped her.
21:24Noah didn't need you to take that fork for him.
21:25He's a fierce little guy.
21:27I finally caught my breath.
21:28He's my baby.
21:29Of course I protected him.
21:32Where are they?
21:34Getting revenge, obviously.
21:35I wanted to go watch,
21:38but your husband and your kid are seriously terrifying.
21:42So I stayed here.
21:44Is staying with me a chore?
21:45Natalie, you don't even know.
21:47When I got to the gala, you were already unconscious.
21:50Your sweet, soft little boy grabbed a fork
21:52and stabbed it right into Madison's hand.
21:54I didn't even know a little kid could have that much strength.
21:56And Damon?
21:57He looked like the devil himself.
21:58Damon found out what happened at the airport.
22:00He found out Ethan slapped you and broke your bracelet.
22:03He had his bodyguards pin Ethan to the floor.
22:06Then he ruined the hand Ethan used to hit you.
22:08Noah just stood there and watched.
22:10He didn't even blink.
22:11He's a terrifying little demon.
22:13Then they beat Ethan's face until he was barely recognizable.
22:15But that wasn't even the worst part.
22:18After Damon found out Madison wanted your diamonds,
22:20he said one thing.
22:21You love taking things that don't belong to you.
22:24I'll give you exactly what you want.
22:26The diamonds and the man you were so desperate to steal.
22:31Madison refused to swallow them,
22:32so Damon had her kid dragged into the room.
22:34She was so terrified that she started forcing the diamonds down.
22:38By the time it was over, she could barely stay conscious.
22:40Then Damon had someone ruin her face.
22:42Then he made sure her son would never use that hand the same way again.
22:46Then he had her dumped in international waters.
22:48I stared at Claire, completely stunned.
22:51What about the guests?
22:52Oh, Damon handled them too.
22:54Every single person who stood there and watched you get bullied
22:56was left with a permanent scar on their wrist.
22:59Punishment for standing by and doing nothing.
23:01If I weren't your best friend, I probably would have gotten one too.
23:04She fake wiped a tear, trying to make me laugh.
23:06I just rolled my eyes at her.
23:08The media was there, but no one dared to report what really happened.
23:12The news only said Ethan's business collapsed overnight.
23:16Any guest who refused to help you is now watching their overseas channels
23:19get cut off by the Moretti family.
23:22Right now, Damon and Noah are hunting Ethan down.
23:25He was supposed to be thrown out with Madison,
23:27but apparently they made some sick deal.
23:31Madison threw herself at the bodyguards to buy him time,
23:34and Ethan ran.
23:35Claire and I both knew how Ethan had escaped.
23:37It was obvious.
23:38He had used Madison's child as leverage.
23:41Madison had forced down a stomach full of diamonds.
23:43She could barely stay conscious.
23:45Her only remaining tie to the world was her son,
23:48so she threw herself at the bodyguards to let Ethan run.
23:52Damon's revenge had been absolutely brutal,
23:54but honestly, I was not scared of him at all.
23:57I was only worried that our sweet little boy had been led astray by him.
24:02Mommy, you're awake.
24:04I'm okay.
24:05Did Daddy yell at you while I was asleep?
24:07No, Daddy didn't yell at me.
24:09Mommy, I'll never let anyone hurt you again.
24:11It was all my fault.
24:12I'm sorry.
24:13Protecting you is mommy's job.
24:14I don't blame you at all.
24:15Claire eventually took Noah down to the cafeteria,
24:18leaving only me and Damon in the room.
24:20Damon stared at the gauze on my back.
24:22The doctor already taped it up.
24:24There's nothing to see.
24:26Natalie, I swear on the Moretti name,
24:28no one will ever get that close to you again.
24:31I believe you.
24:34You're the man I love most.
24:36I treasure my life because I plan to spend the rest of night with you.
24:41Hearing that, the darkness in Damon's eyes finally broke.
24:44He made me stay in the hospital for three extra days.
24:47He ran every test imaginable until the doctors practically begged us to leave.
24:52On the day of my discharge, Damon and Noah went downstairs to bring the car around.
24:56I was zipping up my overnight bag.
24:58The door opened behind me.
24:59I was zipping up my overnight bag.
24:59I was zipping up my overnight bag.
24:59I was zipping up my overnight bag.
