Short filmTranscript
00:00Itay, 15 minutes for HQ reinforcements.
00:04Hold your position!
00:07Damn it, I can't wait any longer.
00:12Ethan, come back!
00:25My husband remains there forever.
00:31A firefighter to tragically died while fighting the fire.
00:35I couldn't accept this fact and cried myself unconscious.
00:41Every weekend, I visited Ethan's grave. He died on duty. Five years blew by.
00:47On Memorial Day, a crash on my way to the cemetery left me in a three-day coma.
00:52While I was out cold, I had a dream. Ethan begged me to let it go.
00:57Disinfectant smell woke me. I opened my eyes with effort. Olivia was right there.
01:02Olivia?
01:04Mia, you okay?
01:06Olivia is my best friend. A rich Iolus born with an endless trust fund.
01:11After Ethan died, anyone who tried to mess with me, she took care of them all.
01:16These five years, without her backing, I'd have probably fallen apart.
01:20Olivia saw I was awake, begging me. He's been dead for years.
01:24Move on and live your life.
01:27I agreed. Six months after leaving the hospital, I took the Paris assignment.
01:33Before leaving, I visited Ethan's grave to say goodbye. But when I got there,
01:37the tombstone now bore a stranger's name and photo. Right then, my phone vibrated like crazy.
01:43An unknown number sent an encrypted video. No text. It was surveillance footage.
01:49Three days ago, my fire victim late husband Ethan came back throwing a gender reveal party with a
01:56woman. And that woman? My best friend Olivia who said I should let it all go. No tears, no breakdown.
02:03I cancelled Paris and went to Olivia's Chelsea apartment. Olivia's place. I cried on her shoulder
02:09there for five years, never knowing it was my husband's love net. That night, Olivia called,
02:14asking if I'd landed and why I hadn't replied yet. I was already at her door. I knocked and smiled
02:20at
02:20her stunned face. Pregnant? Why keep it from your best friend? Olivia flinched. Her phone hit the floor.
02:28I bent down and grabbed it for her. Aren't you going to invite me in?
02:33Olivia snapped out of it and forced a smile. Weren't you sent to France? Why show up without a word?
02:40I could have picked you up. I gave a cold laugh. A delivery guy stepped out, handing over a bouquet
02:46of roses. Ma'am, for you, from Mr. Ethan. Olivia froze. I took the flowers. Babe, is that the delivery?
02:53From inside, that voice. My heart skipped a beat. The next second, Ethan walked out of the kitchen.
02:58He froze, pure shock in his eyes. I pulled the card and read it with a remocking tone.
03:03Dear Olivia, Happy fourth anniversary. Thanks for marrying me and giving me happiness.
03:10How touching. They stood there, paralyzed, speechless. Five years ago, Ethan died a hero. No body,
03:18just an explosion. I was devastated. I cried until my retinas nearly detached. Meanwhile,
03:24they were playing house and planning their future. I was drowning in grief, ready to commit suicide.
03:29They were getting married. While I was popping antidepressants just to keep going,
03:33they were jet-sitting and skiing. I would sleep to his old voice notes while he read bedtime stories
03:38to my best friend's belly. I walked to the photo wall and ripped down the ultrasound. My hands were
03:42shaking. I clutched the photo and turned to face them. Named the kid yet? How about Little Moon?
03:49That name was a dagger. My mind flashed back to our wedding five years ago. Ethan's vows.
03:55I loved you at first sight. That first night, I already named our child Little Moon. Everyone
04:02laughed. Even my bridesmaid, Olivia. Olivia even swatted him with her bouquet. If you ever hurt Mia,
04:08you'll answer to me. Ethan smiled and promised. Back then, I was too happy to notice the sick
04:14spark between them. I clenched my fists. The hatred finally boiled over. I took a deep breath,
04:19grabbed a glass and smashed it against the wall. Olivia jumped, clutching her stomach, pale with fear.
04:26Honey. Ethan rushed to help her sit. She shook her head and nudged him. Enough. Ethan growled,
04:33his face dark with rage. I laughed and walked right up to his face. I slapped him. It was not
04:38enough.
04:39Then again. And again. His head snapped back, veins bulging in his neck. My hand was numb. I was shaking
04:46all
04:46over. Five years I've dreamed of. This a thousand times I'd walk in. And there he'd be alive. I'd hit
04:54him
04:54and scream. Why did you leave me alone? But I never expected the day to arrive. It would look so
05:00absurd.
05:02The man I mourned wasn't dead. He was my best friend's husband. These five agonizing years,
05:08a total joke. Mia, I'm sorry. Olivia dropped to her knees, sobbing. My fault hit me. I fell for him
05:17first. I chased him. I lied to you and trashed our friendship. She shoved Ethan away as he tried to
05:24help. Go home with Mia. I'll get an abortion. This baby shouldn't exist and I don't deserve to be a
05:29mother. Ethan held her tight, his heart breaking. I love you. I love our baby girl. You two are my
05:35real family. It felt like a fist squeezed my heart. I couldn't even breathe.
05:47Suddenly, total darkness. I thought my eyes were failing again. Just a blown fuse. Olivia screamed.
05:53She grabbed my foot and kicked her own belly. Honey, the baby. It hurt. Ethan fumbled for his phone and
06:03flicked on the light. Seeing the footprint, he snapped and kicked me. My head was the cabinet. I landed on
06:10glass. I felt wet blood. Ethan scooped her up to the hospital, hissing at me. Mia, if anything happens
06:18to them, I'll make you pay. The door shut. I lay in the dark, sobbing and laughing. Then, I seemed
06:28to
06:28smell gas. I tried to move, but I was paralyzed like a waking nightmare. Maybe death was better. No more
06:36pain and would ruin their happy home. I woke up to blinding hospital lights. Everything was a blur.
06:43I grabbed Ethan's hand beside me and cried. Don't leave. He stiffened. Then, I woke up for real.
06:50I remembered. He pried my hand off and tucked it back. Careful. Don't move. His concern was masked
06:57by a cold, forced distance. I gave a bitter smirk. Sorry. Forgot you're her husband now. His face soured.
07:06He grabbed my phone and handed it to me. Your office called and asked why you didn't show up.
07:11He paused. You should start a new life. Everyone says that. A new life. Easy to say. But only I
07:17know
07:18how hard it is. Since the day we fell in love, every plan I had included him. When he died,
07:24I died too.
07:25Now, this is a thousand times worse. I swallowed the bitterness.
07:31Ethan, I'm going to make your lives hell. He glared at me, defensive and full of hate.
07:36If you touch them again, I'll destroy you. Then he just walked out. I stared at the ceiling
07:44and laughed. Old memories hit me like jagged glass, sharp enough to stop my breath. When
07:51I first started working, my boss used to get handsy at dinners. I was too scared to fight
07:56back, so I'd just tell him. Days later, the boss's face was swollen to a pulp.
08:01Don't worry. He won't suspect us. Ethan looked proud for a second, then turned serious.
08:07Mia, anyone who messes with you pays. I mean it. Seeing his firm eyes, I felt my eyes well
08:14up. I teased him. What if it's you? He held me close, his forehead pressed to mine.
08:20Never. If I ever break your heart, then let the punishment be losing you forever.
08:27Losing me used to be his biggest fear. Now, I'm just a chain he wants to break. He even
08:32faked his death just to get away. I wiped away the tears.
08:37Just then, Olivia walked in. Mia, eat something.
08:49She started setting out the food like we were just having a chat. The baby's nickname
08:53is Grace, but she needs a real name. Your Aunt Mia, you do it. Face it, Ethan's not yours
09:01anymore. If you're still mad, we can stay and let you vent. Fish soup. Ethan's specialty.
09:08Bet it's been a while, right? The smell of fish made me want to throw up. Out.
09:15She smiled, indifferent. Oh, didn't you say Emily finally conceived through IVF? Twins?
09:22Right? What do you want? I gritted my teeth and glared at her, eyes burning red. Our parents
09:28died young. Emily quit school to work, fed me, put me through college. Her infertility comes
09:34from overworking herself sick back then. Emily is my line, my only family, and I'll protect
09:39her at all costs. Olivia's family could make a preg... Nobody have an accident? As easy
09:45as stepping on a bug. She played the innocent card. Me, nothing. It all depends on what you
09:51do. The first trimester is so fragile. A little scare, a misstep. Such a pity to lose those two
10:00little lives. Just then, my phone buzzed. Caller ID, Emily.
10:04Mia, I just got a package. Two dolls. Did you send them?
10:08My heart dropped. I screamed.
10:11Don't touch! Throw them out now!
10:13Emily panicked, asking what was wrong. I took a breath. Her smile made my skin crawl.
10:20Olivia knew Emily was my weakness. She was using her to control me.
10:24I hung up and gave in. I won't do anything. I know nothing. Nothing happened. My husband
10:31is dead. Olivia smiled, satisfied. Relax. They're just dolls. Eat up before it gets cold.
10:40She shoved the food in my face. The greasy smell was sickening. I turned away, feeling nauseous.
10:46What? No appetite? She tilted her head, her voice threatening.
10:52Mia, you can't be like this. Emily needs you. If you crash, what happens to her?
10:59I clenched the sheet, my nails digging into my palm. What the hell do you want?
11:06I just want you to eat properly. She held a spoonful of soup to my lips.
11:13Open your mouth. I shoved her away. The spoon shattered on the floor. The sound felt like a
11:19signal. Her smile frozen. She glanced at the shards, then back at me, her shock melting into a
11:26sick joy. Fine, she said. Before I could react, she flipped the table. She dumped everything all over
11:35me and the bed. I shrieked and curled up, soaked in soup. I was shaking, from the heat or from
11:42rage.
11:43You're crazy!
11:45I'm not. She looked down at me and screamed.
11:49I'm helping. You couldn't eat, so I'm serving it to you. No bowl needed. Isn't that nice?
11:55The door burst open. Ethan charged in. Olivia, did you get burned? She shook her head and smiled.
12:03I'm fine. Check on Mia. Ethan stopped her and glared at me. She's fine. Forget her.
12:12Another knife to the heart. Olivia looked beyond satisfied. As Ethan led her out, I caught his
12:19hushed voice. Mia's lost it. She might try to hurt you. I've already called someone to
12:25watch her. Olivia cooed with a flirtatious little laugh. You think of everything, baby.
12:41They left. I slipped into the bathroom and called Emily. Emily, can you come to London?
12:47Get Michael to sort your visa today. I'll pick you up.
12:51A knock at the door. One last warning to Emily, and I hung up. I opened the door without thinking.
12:58A man forced his way in. Before I could scream, he gagged me. Everything went black.
13:04I woke up in bed, back in a hospital gown. Under the fabric, I was covered in bruises.
13:11Olivia waddled in, showing me my nudes like it was some juicy gossip.
13:16Since you don't trust me, I needed some leverage. Shut your mouth, or these go to everyone.
13:23Emily, your co-works, the whole world.
13:26I was shaking. I wanted to rip her face off, but I couldn't.
13:31One word from Olivia, and Emily and her twins would be gone.
13:34A tidy accident. Three lives. With no way to keep her safe, I clenched my draw and nodded.
13:40Olivia smirked, satisfied. By the way, you're discharged? Flight to France is at four o'clock. I'll take you.
13:47Take your overseas post and stay there. Don't ever come near us again.
13:55Olivia took me to the airport and gave me a card. Go live your life.
13:59I grabbed it, but she didn't let go. Passcode is the day baby died. I felt so guilty now that
14:06I'm pregnant and dreaming about it.
14:09I froze. It all clicked in an instant. After Ethan's accident, I found out I was pregnant.
14:15Olivia told me to abort it. When I refused, she said we'd raise it together.
14:20Then she took me for a drive to relax. We crashed. And I lost the baby.
14:26A fatherless child is too pitiful. Better it never entered this cruel world.
14:31That was what she said. Now, those words felt like a knife twisting in my heart.
14:35I snapped my head up and stared into her eyes. The puzzle was complete.
14:39The crash. The baby. Her fake kindness and her standing there with that bump.
14:45The crash. You did it on purpose.
14:50My voice was shaking. Not from fear, but rage.
14:54She said nothing. Just watched me as her smirk widened.
14:58I lunged to choke her. Two suits appeared out of nowhere and pinned my arms.
15:02They forced me back into the seat. One hissed a warning.
15:05Be quiet. Don't ask for trouble.
15:08Are you done yet? Think anyone will believe you?
15:11A crazy woman losing it? Accusing a pregnant woman of murder?
15:16She smiled and shoved the boarding pass into my hand.
15:20They're boarding. Don't make me regret letting you leave.
15:24I gripped that boarding pass. I wanted to rip her fake face off and show the world the demon she
15:29really was.
15:30But I did not. Because she was right. No one would believe me.
15:35I swallowed the iron taste of blood and walked to the gate.
15:39The moment I landed, the phone went crazy.
15:44Is this Mia? Emily opened a package laced with a strong allergen.
15:47She's hemorrhaging. It's critical. We need you to sign for her.
15:51My fingertips went cold and numb.
15:54I turned to the counter and rebooked the next flight to Florence.
15:57This is where Emily and I grew up.
15:59On the plane, I finally broke down.
16:04Back in Italy, I got a new phone and dialed a number.
16:09It's Mia. You said I could come to you for help.
16:12Does that still stand?
16:21Lucas. Olivia's ex-blind date.
16:24The man who once used me as his dead first love.
16:27I'd run into him at a steakhouse with my call works.
16:29He looked surprised, but only gave a faint nod.
16:32I thought that was it.
16:34But as I left, his voice came from behind.
16:37Mia.
16:39I know I crossed a line back then.
16:41I owe you an apology.
16:43He paused, his voice dropping.
16:46If you ever need a hand with anything, call me.
16:49He handed me a business card.
16:51I hesitated, then took it.
16:53I tucked it into my wallet.
16:55It stayed there for three years, untouched.
16:59Until now.
17:00This was the first time I reached out.
17:02After Emily left the hospital, Lucas sent us back to London,
17:05to a private neighborhood he'd set up for us.
17:08I could finally breathe again.
17:10A few days later, we met.
17:12He handed me a capped envelope.
17:14I've gathered the dirt on Ethan and Olivia.
17:17It's all in these report letters.
17:19Take a look.
17:20I opened it to find a stack of evidence.
17:22Wire transfers, fake death certificates,
17:25all perfectly documented.
17:27The wording was sharp.
17:28The evidence chain was airtight.
17:30I looked up at him, my throat tight.
17:33He just shook his head and said softly,
17:36Don't thank me.
17:37It's your call now.
17:38When or if you send them is up to you.
17:41I printed the letters and sealed them in separate envelopes.
17:45One to Olivia's company, one to Ethan's unit.
17:56After mailing them, I sat on a park bench,
17:59staring at the falling leaves.
18:01Mourning him all those years felt like a joke.
18:04I wish he'd actually died.
18:05At least then, we wouldn't be here.
18:08Three days later, the doorbell rang.
18:11I opened it to find Ethan,
18:13clutching two crumpled letters,
18:15the exact letters I'd sent.
18:17Mia, don't do anything stupid.
18:20He tossed them on the table,
18:21his tone a warning.
18:23Overplaying your hand always ends badly.
18:25Just look at Emily.
18:26I shot up, my chest heaving.
18:28I already agreed.
18:30Why did you still hurt her?
18:32For once, a flash of guilt crossed his eyes.
18:35But it was gone in a second.
18:37He looked down, weighing his words,
18:40or his options.
18:41He stood up and gave me a complicated look.
18:43Suddenly, he pulled me into his arms.
18:46His voice was low and steady.
18:49I'm sorry, Mia.
18:50Stop the games.
18:52Just go live your life.
18:54I broke down, tears hitting the floor.
18:57I looked up through the blur and screamed horously.
19:03Ethan, why are you doing this to me?
19:06He didn't answer.
19:08He just tightened his grip,
19:09like he was restraining a broken toy.
19:12Years of hurt exploded.
19:13I kept sobbing.
19:15Ethan, what right do you have?
19:18You ruin my entire life and then tell me to live well?
19:22He let me hit him,
19:23but he wouldn't let go.
19:25I'm sorry.
19:26He kept repeating it.
19:28I'm sorry.
19:29I cried and used the last of it to push him away.
19:33He left a card on his way out.
19:35Take this.
19:36Consider it compensation for you and Emily.
19:38I stared at the card,
19:40a cold smile forming.
19:41I nodded.
19:42That one word,
19:43yes,
19:44was spat out through gritted teeth.
19:46Nothing was settled.
19:47How could I ever let them go?
19:49If I gave up now, they'd win.
19:51If I'm in hell,
19:52I'm taking them with me.
19:54But I didn't realize
19:55they weren't done with me either.
19:57The next morning,
19:59I went to bring Emily breakfast.
20:01As I stepped out of the gate,
20:02a black Sudan lunged at me.
20:04I jumped back,
20:06tripped over the curb,
20:07and slammed onto the pavement.
20:09Men piled out of the car
20:10and snatched my phone and ID.
20:12It took 10 seconds.
20:14I was curled on the ground,
20:16unable to scream.
20:18After the impact,
20:19only one thought remained.
20:21I can't die.
20:22Just before I lost consciousness,
20:24I felt someone lift me up.
20:26I forced my eyes open
20:28and saw a familiar face.
20:30His voice was low and gentle.
20:34Don't be afraid.
20:36I'm here.
20:45I refused the hospital,
20:46so he took me to a hotel suite.
20:49A housekeeper cleaned me up
20:50and a doctor was waiting.
20:52Once the IV was set,
20:53we were alone.
20:54It was so quiet,
20:55I could hear him breathe.
20:57Thank you, Lucas.
20:58I spoke first,
20:59my voice raw.
21:02Drink some water.
21:03He held the cup
21:04and guided the straw.
21:06His warm palm
21:07pressed against my cold hand
21:09for a second
21:09before he let go.
21:11Careful,
21:12the IV might backflow.
21:13He tucked me in.
21:15His fingers brushed my chin,
21:17lingered for a beat,
21:18then pulled away.
21:19He'd grown more intense.
21:20Even his kindness
21:21had a heavy,
21:22commanding edge to it.
21:23What happened?
21:25Talk to me.
21:26You won't be sleeping tonight.
21:28He waited,
21:29silent and patient.
21:32After a long silence,
21:33I told the whole story
21:35like I was just a bystander.
21:38The room went dead silent.
21:39He didn't judge.
21:42Can I borrow your phone?
21:43I need to check in with Emily.
21:44He handed it over
21:46and stepped out.
21:47Emily picked up instantly.
21:49I heard her sigh of relief.
21:51What's going on?
21:51Olivia called me from your phone.
21:53She said you two fought
21:54and you vanished.
21:55She sounded worried.
21:56I'm fine.
21:58Three words,
21:59then my voice failed me.
22:00as long as you are safe.
22:02She heard the pain in my voice
22:04and tried to comfort me.
22:05But if it crosses the line,
22:07don't wrong yourself.
22:08Tears fell instantly.
22:10I bit my teeth hard.
22:12Don't believe a word she says.
22:15Don't worry.
22:16Wait for me to come back.
22:18Emily smiled
22:19and said she understood.
22:21Don't worry.
22:22If she calls again,
22:23I'll tell her
22:24I haven't heard from you.
22:26She told me to stay safe
22:27and stop worrying about her.
22:35Once I composed myself,
22:37Lucas knocked
22:38and brought in some porridge.
22:39I thanked him.
22:41Lucas?
22:43Do I still look like her?
22:45He froze,
22:46then smiled.
22:47His gaze made me squirm.
22:49I felt exposed,
22:51ashamed.
22:52But I had no choice.
22:54I couldn't take down
22:55Olivia alone.
22:56Fate put him in my path.
22:57I had to use him.
22:59I'm sorry.
23:01I offended you.
23:03That was my fault.
23:05My heart sank.
23:06Whatever you're planning next,
23:08I'm with you.
23:09He smiled again.
23:10He gave me
23:11half a sleeping pill.
23:13I was out until noon.
23:17Dreams I couldn't remember
23:19left me feeling
23:19utterly drained.
23:21When I woke,
23:22Lucas handed me
23:23a new phone.
23:24I've got people
23:24watching, Emily.
23:26You can let her know
23:27she's safe.
23:29I smiled gratefully.
23:33He said it was nothing.
23:35He went quiet,
23:37clearly weighing
23:37his next words.
23:39He looked at me.
23:40His lips parted,
23:41but he kept
23:42looking away.
23:43I waited,
23:44giving him space.
23:46Suddenly,
23:47he leaned in,
23:48gathering his resolve.
23:49When you're better,
23:50will you visit
23:51someone with me?
23:52I might need you to
23:53play Lily.
23:54Lily,
23:55his first love.
23:56He'd been taking care
23:57of her grandmother
23:58who had Alzheimer's
23:59for years.
24:00Thinking of everything
24:01he'd done for me,
24:02I nodded.
24:03It was the least I could do.
24:04Is that all?
24:06He smiled,
24:07helplessly.
24:08I'll save it for later.
24:10Later,
24:11I dialed my stolen phone.
24:14Sure enough,
24:15Olivia picked up.
24:16Mia,
24:17is that you?
24:18I hummed in response.
24:20Are you okay?
24:21Where are you?
24:23I let out a cold laugh.
24:25Worried about me,
24:27just disappointed
24:28I'm still breathing.
24:30Maya.
24:31Ethan took the phone,
24:32his voice low and angry.
24:34Who was that man?
24:36What the hell
24:36is he to you?
24:37I fired back.
24:39Does it matter?
24:41Who are you to ask,
24:43Ethan,
24:44my lover,
24:44or my best friend's husband?
24:47Silence.
24:56I set up a meeting
24:57to get my phone
24:58and ID back.
24:59Sat in the cafe,
25:01watching the crowd
25:02through the glass.
25:03Ethan came alone.
25:05He dropped my stuff
25:06on the table,
25:07plus two gold
25:08and jade amulets.
25:09Gifts for Emily's kids.
25:12Olivia's idea.
25:14I scoffed.
25:15Another reminder,
25:16another threat.
25:18Ethan looked pissed.
25:19Olivia's a saint.
25:21That's no excuse
25:22to hurt her.
25:23You messed up,
25:24now pay up.
25:25I did not want to laugh,
25:26but I could not help it.
25:28Oh, she's so kind.
25:31Lying, cheating,
25:33stealing her best friend's husband.
25:35What a good woman.
25:37Enough!
25:38Ethan snapped
25:39in a low growl.
25:40What about you?
25:41Have you never lied?
25:42You were with that guy
25:43in college,
25:44had an abortion for him.
25:45You were just a rebound.
25:47He dumped you
25:48when he was done.
25:50I was stunned.
25:51I couldn't even breathe.
25:52Then,
25:53I didn't care.
25:54Not about her lies
25:55or what he thought.
25:56Not anymore.
25:57I took a breath
25:58and looked at him.
25:59My vision read,
26:00Ethan,
26:00just one truth.
26:01Why?
26:01If you didn't love me,
26:03why not just divorce?
26:04Why fake your death?
26:05It makes no sense.
26:06His anger died down.
26:08He avoided my gaze.
26:09Because you said
26:10betrayal is worse than death.
26:12You couldn't handle it.
26:13I froze.
26:14I remembered us
26:15talking about a movie.
26:16I said it would hurt
26:17way more if he just
26:18fell for someone else.
26:20And he used that.
26:21He scripted his death
26:23based on my own words.
26:25He's dead.
26:26He ended it
26:27just so I'd spend forever
26:28believing he still loved me.
26:30So I was an accomplice
26:32in this lie.
26:33How pathetic.
26:35And if I died,
26:36you'd get the insurance money.
26:38Enough to finally
26:39buy that house.
26:40I laughed again.
26:42Right.
26:43The house we were saving for
26:44before having kids.
26:48My voice cracked.
26:49When I got that call,
26:50I was at the hospital.
26:52I was pregnant.
26:53Almost two months.
26:55Ethan closed.
26:56His eyes were shaking.
26:58Ask Olivia.
26:59She took me for a drive,
27:01crashed the car,
27:02and the baby died.
27:02Watching him go pale,
27:04I felt a small rush
27:05of revenge.
27:06I pulled up my sleeve,
27:08showing the tattoo
27:09over the scar.
27:10See, Little Moon was real.
27:12He looked devastated.
27:13I didn't know.
27:15I'm sorry, Mia.
27:17I really didn't know.
27:18He stopped.
27:19He couldn't finish.
27:21It's over.
27:22I sniffed and stood up.
27:24I turned to leave.
27:25He grabbed my arm.
27:27I'm done with you.
27:28Just stay away
27:29from my family.
27:31Mia, don't throw
27:32your life away.
27:33Find someone
27:34who actually respects
27:35and loves you.
27:36I gave him a cold look.
27:38Since when did you care
27:39if I lived or died?
27:40I shook him off
27:41and got into Lucas' car.
27:48He came after you.
27:51Ethan pounded on the window,
27:52his face dark.
27:53I stared at him,
27:54but he could not see me.
27:57Let's go.
27:58I told Lucas.
28:00The car pulled away,
28:02leaving him in the dust.
28:11Next day,
28:12we headed back to Italy.
28:14First,
28:14we went to the nursing home
28:15to see Lily's grandma, Anna.
28:17She took me for Lily.
28:18She kept touching my face.
28:19You're so thin.
28:21Stop dieting.
28:22Eat something.
28:22My heart ached.
28:23I just nodded.
28:24We had dinner.
28:25She kept piling food
28:26on my plate.
28:27Outside,
28:28Lucas thanked me.
28:29No big deal.
28:30I should be the one
28:31thanking you.
28:33He'd already moved
28:34Emily back to Italy
28:35to a high-security complex.
28:37After the nursing home,
28:39we went straight to see her.
28:41Emily was a wreck
28:42until she saw me.
28:43What the hell is going on?
28:45I told her everything.
28:47She was speechless,
28:48tears streaming down.
28:50I was worried about her
28:51and the twins.
28:52She spat out.
28:54I'm fine.
28:55I'm not that fragile.
28:57If I see them,
28:58I'll make sure they stay dead.
29:00I touched her belly
29:01and joked.
29:04Babies,
29:05don't listen.
29:06Lucas was with me
29:08every day after that.
29:09He used his connections
29:10to find a guy
29:11from the crash.
29:12We got the bank receipts
29:14and chats
29:15proving Olivia did it.
29:16He also brought in a lawyer
29:17to nail down
29:18every piece of evidence.
29:20A week later,
29:21we walked into
29:22the police station
29:22with the evidence
29:23and those two failed reports.
29:25Olivia got the call.
29:26She froze.
29:28Then came the rage.
29:30Maya, how dare you?
29:32She reached for her burner phone.
29:34Ethan already had it.
29:35Explain these photos.
29:37Why did you do this?
29:40He backed her into a corner.
29:42What else are you hiding?
29:45You said you felt guilty.
29:48Meanwhile,
29:49you were stabbing her
29:50in the back.
29:51Olivia tried to stay cool.
29:53I don't know what you mean.
29:54She called the cops.
29:55They're coming for you.
29:58Focus on that.
29:59Why the lies?
30:00What else is a lie?
30:02With bloodshot eyes,
30:03Ethan kept pressing her.
30:05Olivia gasped,
30:06clutching her stomach.
30:10Ethan, I...
30:11Stop the act.
30:12Ethan cut off her act.
30:14He looked at her and muttered,
30:16How could I ever love you?
30:18That snapped her.
30:19She grabbed his shirt.
30:21Regret!
30:22Why not love me?
30:23I'm hotter!
30:25Smart!
30:26Richer!
30:27I'm better than Mia
30:29in every way!
30:30You belong with me!
30:32She hugged him again.
30:34Baby, I love you.
30:35We have a baby.
30:37Mia won't ruin this.
30:39I'll fix it.
30:41I'll call my uncle.
30:42Ethan pushed her off.
30:43No.
30:45I'm flying to Italy
30:46to see Mia.
30:49Ethan.
30:50She was horrified.
30:51Why?
30:52You're leaving us?
30:53Ethan shook his head
30:54with a bitter laugh.
30:57What about my baby with Mia?
31:00You killed it.
31:02I didn't.
31:03Olivia firmly denied it.
31:05Her belly really started hurting.
31:08Ethan didn't look back.
31:10Slammed the door.
31:20Since Ethan turned himself in,
31:22the case moved fast.
31:24As a public official,
31:26he faked his death for a payout.
31:28That's fraud.
31:29Ten years.
31:31Olivia used her connections
31:32and her job
31:33to help him pull it off.
31:35She got three years
31:36with probation.
31:37No one involved
31:38got away with it.
31:39The case blew up
31:40in the media
31:41and went viral.
31:42The hero became
31:43a total joke.
31:44Reporters swarmed,
31:45but I turned them all down.
31:48Ethan whirred
31:48through his lawyer.
31:49He wanted to see me.
31:51I agreed.
31:52Sorry, Mia.
31:53It's all my fault.
31:54I deserve this.
31:55For five years,
31:56I never felt this light.
31:58Back then,
31:59I wasn't me.
32:00I was a puppet.
32:02With red eyes,
32:04he repented.
32:05Mia,
32:06if I could do it over,
32:07I would never hurt you again.
32:09You asked,
32:09what if it was me
32:10bullying you?
32:11Is prison enough
32:12of a punishment?
32:13I laughed coldly.
32:15No.
32:16A lifetime
32:17wouldn't be enough.
32:18Ethan,
32:19I hate you so much
32:20it hurts.
32:21You killed my baby.
32:23I will never forgive you.
32:26After everything
32:27was settled,
32:28Emily had her C-section.
32:29Twin girls.
32:30Michael was so moved,
32:32he broke down
32:33crying on the floor.
32:34I named them
32:35Stella and Estelle.
32:36Both names
32:37mean star.
32:38Two stars
32:39in the same sky,
32:40just like the two of them.
32:42A family
32:43always lighting
32:44each other up.
32:45Meanwhile,
32:46Olivia's baby
32:47was born early.
32:48The baby
32:49didn't make it
32:49out of the incubator.
32:51She snapped
32:52and tried to kill herself.
32:54Her family
32:54put her in a psych ward.
32:56After all that,
32:57I quit my job
32:59and stayed in Italy
33:00to help Emily.
33:01Lucas visited often,
33:03always bringing things
33:04for the babies.
33:05After dinner,
33:07I walked him down
33:07and thanked him again.
33:09He smiled helplessly again.
33:11Fate brought us
33:12back together.
33:12If I did nothing,
33:14I'd be asking
33:15for a lightning strike.
33:16He made me laugh.
33:18He looked at me
33:19lost in thought.
33:20I slowly put away
33:21my smile.
33:24Do I still remind you
33:26of her?
33:27He sighed.
33:30Mia,
33:31I let her go.
33:33I just think
33:34you look beautiful
33:34when you smile.
33:35I froze.
33:36My face started burning.
33:38When you've let go
33:39of the past,
33:40I'll make my final request.
33:43I nodded.
33:45Later,
33:46Emily kept asking
33:47if anything was happening
33:48between us.
33:49I always said
33:50we're just friends.
33:51A complicated
33:52kind of friends.
33:54Maybe one day
33:55things will change.
33:56We're just letting it happen.
