Short filmTranscript
00:00My adopted uncle Robert was spiked, and I became his only cure.
00:04My grandfather, Klaus Cullen, demanded Robert to marry me.
00:07However, Robert was against this arranged marriage for his true love.
00:11On a drunken night, he attempted suicide to save his life.
00:14I lost both of my legs.
00:16He had no choice but agreed to the marriage.
00:18But on our wedding night, he threw me into an underground club.
00:22He tied me to a bed and sat back, watching, amused.
00:25After endless humiliation, I found a chance to set the curtains on fire,
00:28burnt down the entire club, including me and Robert.
00:31When I opened my eyes again, I returned to the day he was drugged.
00:35This time, Robert, I'd step aside.
00:37Let you have your true love.
00:38A large hand gripped my waist, jolting me awake.
00:41I opened my eyes and met Robert's bloodshot gaze.
00:44It was clouded with a deep, bottomless lust.
00:47I scanned the room, didn't see the sickening tools of the underground club,
00:51nor unforgettable stench hanging in the air.
00:54Did you not hear me?
00:57Take it off.
00:58Then I realized I had been reborn into the night he was drugged.
01:01He was so close to me, reminding me of the men who had forced themselves onto me in my past
01:06life.
01:06Their stinky lips against my neck, greasy hands tearing my clothes.
01:11I forced myself not to think about it, biting Robert's arm hard.
01:14Get off me!
01:15The sharp pain snapped Robert back to his senses, noticing my collar's rip.
01:19Unease flickered in his eyes, instantly replaced by hate.
01:23Caroline, you disguise me.
01:25Sleeping with me won't change anything.
01:27I will never love you.
01:29A sharp ache shot through my heart.
01:33Where's your girlfriend?
01:34I'll go pick her up.
01:35I didn't expect him to freeze when he heard that.
01:37The potion made him shake all over, but he still forced his upper body up from the floor.
01:42He lunged forward and grabbed my waist tightly.
01:44Why isn't it you?
01:48Why are you bringing her to me?
01:50Why aren't you staying here?
01:53Didn't you love me the most growing up?
01:55Weren't you willing to do anything for me?
01:57Weren't you?
01:57This was the man I loved for so long, and he was losing his mind over me.
02:01There was no way I didn't feel anything, but I couldn't forget.
02:04After sleeping with me in my past life, he threw me into an underground club.
02:09The humiliation, the abuse, the fire.
02:17Caroline, stop, please.
02:18I can't hold back anymore.
02:24Robert, are you okay?
02:25Do you feel sick?
02:26Let's go to the hospital.
02:28Before she could finish, Robert yanked her inside.
02:30The door slammed shut right in my face.
02:32My heart finally settled.
02:33In this life, the toxic bond between Robert and me would end for good.
02:37Melody was my classmate.
02:38She was a scholarship student.
02:40Couldn't even afford a decent meal at the cafeteria.
02:43I used to pretend I'd ordered too much and asked her to eat with me.
02:46When she told me she would spend the holiday alone, I brought her back to my home.
02:50We had maids, but she still woke up early to help
02:52and asked everyone about their favorite dishes for dinner.
02:55I truly believed I had found a best friend for life, until the necklace Robert gave me
02:59suddenly disappeared.
03:00I searched every inch of the mansion, only to find it shattered in the kitchen.
03:04I was a gift I treasured the most.
03:06Only Melody knew where I kept it.
03:08She was also the only person who knew about my forbidden feelings for my uncle.
03:12When I finally confronted her, she knelt at our front gate, sobbing that it was an accident.
03:16I had her things thrown out anyway.
03:19She stood up from the pavement and began to limp away.
03:22She ran into Robert at the entrance.
03:24Seeing her swaying as if she was about to collapse, Robert felt a surge of pity.
03:29I was furious, but terrified that Robert would discover my true feelings and distant me,
03:34so I could only watch her put on the show.
03:36I never imagined they would actually become lovers.
03:39Melody sent me intimate photos of them over and over again.
03:42I tried to tell Robert about the things Melody had done, but he didn't believe me at all.
03:46Caroline, people like you only care about business.
03:48You never understand a thing about true love.
03:50It was too much tension in the mansion.
03:52Robert eventually moved out for good.
03:54That night, Grandpa asked me to deliver some documents to Robert.
03:57That was how I ended up there when he was drugged.
04:00I still remember the smug look Melody gave me when I walked in.
04:03That's when I knew.
04:04It was all a trap.
04:05For a poor girl desperate to marry into Upper East Side, drugging became the easiest way.
04:10In my past life, I had ruined her plans, but this time,
04:14I will watch Robert jump straight into her trap.
04:16After my parents passed away, I lived with my grandpa,
04:19but he was always occupied with company's affairs.
04:22In the mansion, there were just maids and my uncle, Robert.
04:25He used to help me with my homework and taught me how the world worked.
04:29He would slip those love notes out of my bag and set them aside.
04:32As if clearing the path of foolish suitors, when he was 18, I had my first period.
04:37He went to buy pads for me with, blushing bright red.
04:40Watching the tips of his ears flush in the glow of the sunset, my heart skipped a beat.
04:46But soon enough, those feelings soured.
04:48We drifted further and further away.
04:50It was midnight when I got home, yet the lights in the living room were still on.
04:55Grandpa was sitting on the sofa, nearly asleep.
04:59If you had been any later, I would have called the police.
05:02I leaned into my grandfather's embrace.
05:04Couldn't stop crying.
05:05Grandpa had always loved me the most.
05:06But in my past life, Robert had pushed him off the stairs because of me.
05:11After my grandpa was left disabled, Robert threw him into the cheapest nursing home in the city.
05:16I was sent to a place like that too.
05:19I lost my phone.
05:20I'll buy a new one tomorrow.
05:23It took a while to coax grandpa back to his room to rest.
05:26When I returned to my own room, everything felt strange yet peaceful, turned out.
05:30Falling out of love was actually that simple.
05:33The next morning, I went down for breakfast.
05:34But Robert and Melody were there too.
05:36Grandpa sat across from them.
05:38His face clouded with anger.
05:40On the table, it was my favorite omelet.
05:42Morning, Caroline.
05:43Did you sleep well?
05:45Quite well.
05:47During breakfast, Melody didn't touch a single bite.
05:50Mel, why aren't you eating?
05:53I'm allergic.
05:54But it's fine.
05:56I'll just grab something at the school cafeteria later.
05:58Robert's face darkened.
05:59Then he ordered the maids to cook something else.
06:02What?
06:03You're allergic to eggs?
06:05They're all what Caroline liked.
06:07She is my granddaughter.
06:08She eats whatever she wants.
06:10Robert, I can eat this.
06:12Please don't upset Mr. Cunnan because of me.
06:15The meal ended awkwardly.
06:16As soon as Grandpa left the dining table, Robert blocked my path.
06:20Keep your mouth shut.
06:22I don't want him knowing anything about last night and...
06:25And if you ever try to seduce Mimi again,
06:27I'll make sure the whole family knows what you really are.
06:29So, he thought I was the one who drugged him.
06:32No wonder he hated me so much in my past life.
06:34Not only did he throw me into that hellhole,
06:36but he had me drugged every single day.
06:39Awake or asleep, I was tripping all the time.
06:41I had even lost my dignity,
06:43stripping in public and begging strangers to touch me.
06:45A searing pain ripped through my heart,
06:47and I doubled over.
06:48My head hurt like it was being crushed by a sledgehammer.
06:51Robert, believe it or not,
06:52I had absolutely nothing to do with what happened last night.
06:55You were the only one at my place yesterday.
06:58Who else could it be?
07:00Or are you going to tell me you're not obsessed with me anymore?
07:02Getting humiliated like that right in front of Melody,
07:05my face burnt with shame.
07:06You're not that important to me anymore.
07:09Honestly, Robert,
07:10just thinking about me loved you before,
07:12that makes me sick.
07:14What the hell did you just say?
07:16The man I loved was the kind,
07:18honorable Robert from my childhood.
07:20Not you!
07:21I thought once I stepped aside and let them be together,
07:24they could be out of my life for good.
07:26However, only a couple days later,
07:28rumors began spreading across the campus.
07:30Did you hear?
07:30Caroline is obsessed with her own uncle Robert.
07:33Isn't that like,
07:34I heard she tried to drug him but failed.
07:36Got kicked out.
07:37Total disgrace to the Cullen family.
07:40I've never liked Caroline.
07:41Always acts so superior.
07:43Without Cullen's name,
07:44what does she have left?
07:45I stepped up behind them.
07:47I have a straight A record
07:48and gold medals from competitions.
07:50They spun around
07:51and I realized they were Melody's roommates.
07:53I didn't hold back.
07:54I've recorded everything you just said.
07:56Just wait for my lawyer's letter.
07:58You're right.
07:59The Cullens have my back.
08:00But what do you have?
08:02Just lying mouths and zero shame?
08:04We aren't lying!
08:06Go check the campus group chat yourself!
08:08There's a video!
08:09I found the video they talked about.
08:10It was the surveillance footage
08:12from outside Robert's penthouse.
08:13It showed the door hanging open
08:15with Robert looking flushed
08:16and disoriented.
08:17But the clip cut off
08:18right after he kicked me out.
08:19Melody wasn't in it at all.
08:21It was crystal clear
08:22who was behind this.
08:23Before I got to track Melody down,
08:25Robert showed up.
08:26He threw his phone onto my lap.
08:28Delete the post.
08:29I'll take care of the damage control.
08:31Does he really think I posted that?
08:33I looked at him, confused.
08:34You've got the wrong person.
08:35It was Melody!
08:37I had someone trace the ID.
08:38It leads straight back to your laptop.
08:41The account registered
08:42with your phone number.
08:43You owe an apartment
08:44in that neighborhood.
08:45It's easy for you
08:46to get that footage.
08:48His gaze grew even colder.
08:49Should I keep going?
08:50Every word of defense
08:51died in my throat.
08:52Even though I knew
08:53he didn't care for me,
08:54being accused like this
08:55still hurt my feeling.
08:56He had been the center
08:57of my entire world
08:58for as long as I could remember.
09:00Right in front of him,
09:01I used my phone number
09:02to reset the forum password
09:03and deleted the post.
09:04He let out a cold snort
09:06about to say something more.
09:07But he stopped
09:08when he saw me open my WhatsApp
09:09and permanently delete his number.
09:11Our chat history
09:12was literally me
09:13talking to myself.
09:14Robert,
09:15the ribs at the cafeteria
09:16were great today
09:16but I still prefer yours.
09:18Robert,
09:19Grandpa says
09:19we're having dinner
09:20at home tonight.
09:21He wants to set me up
09:21on a blind date.
09:23What should I do?
09:24His replies had always been
09:25a single cold character.
09:27I wiped everything related
09:29to him from my phone.
09:30The chats,
09:31the contacts,
09:32the photos.
09:33As he watched me do this,
09:34his calm facade
09:35finally cracked.
09:36Karen,
09:36what the hell are you doing?
09:37My voice was flat.
09:38I know,
09:39you think I'm annoying.
09:40Even mentioning me
09:41is a disgrace.
09:42Fine,
09:42let's cut everything off.
09:43As I was getting out of the car,
09:45he grabbed my arm.
09:46Caroline,
09:46I told you to delete the post,
09:48not to cut me out of your life.
09:49If you just behave yourself
09:50and stop picking up on Melody,
09:52we can still make things work.
09:54Me?
09:55Picking up on her?
09:56Come on.
09:57I knew you got her kicked
09:58out of the campus clubs
09:59and you accused her of cheating
10:00so she'd lose her scholarship.
10:01Isn't that enough?
10:01But look,
10:02I can fix all of that.
10:03I'll let it pass.
10:03I slowly pried his fingers
10:05off my arm,
10:06one by one.
10:07Uncle Robert,
10:08you're misunderstanding something.
10:10He froze,
10:11stunned by the formal,
10:12distant way I addressed him.
10:13I hadn't called him that in years.
10:15I don't want anything
10:16to do with you anymore.
10:17I'm already engaged.
10:19After getting home,
10:20I finally agreed
10:21to the marriage alliance
10:22grandpa he'd been pushing for.
10:24But he didn't look
10:25as happy as I expected.
10:26Caroline,
10:27be honest with me.
10:28Why did you agree
10:29to it suddenly?
10:31My heart skipped a beat,
10:32but I kept my face
10:33perfectly calm.
10:34I thought I was too young
10:35to think about it.
10:36But an old classmate of mine
10:38just had her first baby.
10:39I'm already 25.
10:41If I get engaged now,
10:43maybe in two years,
10:44I can still give you
10:45a great grandchild
10:46while I'm in my prime.
10:47Isn't that what you wanted?
10:51I knew exactly
10:52what he wanted to hear.
10:53He didn't suspect a word,
10:54I said.
10:54The next day,
10:55I met the head
10:56of the Thorne family,
10:57Gabriel Thorne.
10:58Everyone in the city
10:59said he was a cold,
11:00untouchable man,
11:01a saint.
11:01But the moment I saw him,
11:03I froze.
11:03In my past life,
11:05after I set that
11:05underground club on fire,
11:07some people stormed
11:08into the building.
11:08Gabriel was at the front.
11:10The flames didn't stop him.
11:11He rushed to my side
11:12and evacuated
11:13all the other victims.
11:14I remember him
11:15reaching out his hand to me,
11:16but I pushed it away.
11:17I'm so tired.
11:18I don't want to be here anymore.
11:20He had granted me
11:21my final wish,
11:22his eyes filled with pity.
11:23I knew that winning
11:24over a man like him,
11:25a truly good man,
11:26would be easy.
11:27For the next two weeks,
11:28whenever I didn't have classes,
11:29he would pick me up.
11:30Dinner,
11:31movies,
11:32shopping.
11:33Every single plan
11:34was perfect,
11:34maybe too perfect.
11:35I began to wonder
11:36if he was actually a playboy
11:38who had mastered
11:38the art of charming women.
11:40That was until
11:40I accidentally caught
11:41a glimpse of his
11:42search history.
11:45I couldn't help
11:46but burst into laughter.
11:47His face turned red
11:48instantly
11:49and he looked away.
11:50After a long moment
11:52of awkward silence,
11:54Stop laughing.
11:55I just,
11:55I've never been good at this.
11:56I don't know how to act
11:57around you.
11:58I was still giggling.
11:59You could have just
12:00asked me.
12:01I can do that?
12:03Of course.
12:04What if the internet
12:05recommends something I hate?
12:06What if I get angry?
12:08Whatever you say,
12:09Kara.
12:09No one had ever
12:10called me Caro before.
12:12That made the tips
12:13of my ears burn.
12:14One month.
12:14That was all it took
12:15for me to know
12:16he was the man
12:16I wanted to marry.
12:17Maybe our love
12:18wasn't that dramatic,
12:19but he was there.
12:20Every single time,
12:22he replied to every message,
12:24listened to every word,
12:25and made me feel
12:26truly seen.
12:27I once asked him
12:28how he managed
12:28to reply to my texts
12:30so quick.
12:31Even he was so busy.
12:32Nothing is more
12:33important than you.
12:34I had doubted him
12:35where his love came from.
12:37Cardo,
12:37time will tell.
12:38Don't push me away.
12:39Give us a chance.
12:42I will.
12:43The next day,
12:44I formally brought
12:45Gabriel home
12:45to meet the family.
12:46I had specifically
12:47asked Grandpa
12:48to keep it quiet,
12:49especially from Robert.
12:50So Robert still had
12:51no idea who my boyfriend
12:53actually was.
12:54Besides,
12:54Gabriel liked to keep
12:55his low profile.
12:57In the business world,
12:58there were only a few people
12:59knew what he looked like.
13:00With his perfect manners
13:01and gifts,
13:02Gabriel won over
13:03the entire family.
13:04Except for Robert
13:05and Melody.
13:06The whole night,
13:07Robert's face
13:08stayed grim.
13:09Every time he saw
13:10Gabriel holding my hand,
13:11his expression
13:12grew darker.
13:13After dinner,
13:14Grandpa called us
13:15all to the study.
13:16He pulled a heavy
13:17legal folder
13:18from the safe.
13:18This was supposed
13:19to stay sealed
13:20until my passing.
13:21But as you're getting married,
13:22it's best you see this now.
13:24Melody,
13:24assuming it was
13:25the final will.
13:26Caroline,
13:26don't worry.
13:27Even though the bulk
13:28will go to your uncle,
13:29we'll make sure
13:29you're taken care of.
13:30Robert and I will manage
13:31the Cullen Empire together.
13:33You can just focus
13:34on your life.
13:34She hadn't even married
13:36into the family yet
13:37and she was already
13:38counting her chickens.
13:39Shame she would
13:40be disappointed.
13:41Grandpa shot her
13:42a freezing glare.
13:43Cullen fortune
13:44is to be split
13:45between Robert
13:46and Caroline.
13:48No way!
13:49She's just a junior!
13:51I'm the primary heir!
13:53Melody has a point.
13:54Caroline never cared
13:55about money,
13:56but now she's seizing it.
13:58Is it her will
13:59or is it her boyfriend
14:00told her to?
14:01Besides,
14:02with my brother
14:02and his wife gone,
14:04it's only natural
14:04that I take full control
14:05of the legacy.
14:06He wasn't just asking
14:07for a share.
14:08He wanted it all.
14:09Grandpa's face
14:10hardened instantly.
14:12Listen, Robert.
14:13You are an adopted son.
14:15You have no right
14:16to challenge my granddaughter.
14:17No way.
14:18I've been a current
14:19since I could walk.
14:20How could I be adopted?
14:21His chest heaved
14:22with every breath,
14:23his gaze shifting
14:24between Klaus and me.
14:25His eyes were a mess.
14:27He looked like
14:27his whole world
14:28just blew up.
14:29Your dad was one
14:30of my men.
14:31He took a bullet for me.
14:32Your mother was
14:33carrying you then
14:34and the grief
14:34destroyed her.
14:35I poured every resource
14:36into saving her,
14:37but she didn't make it.
14:39She died when she
14:39was seven months along.
14:41Enough with the stories.
14:42My birth records
14:43prove I was born full term.
14:44That was because
14:45of your mother's will!
14:46Grandpa whacked
14:47the table so hard.
14:48Come on.
14:48You said you'd
14:49keep your cool, remember?
14:50He took a beat
14:51to calm down.
14:52Your mom didn't
14:53want a C-section.
14:54She demanded
14:55to stay with you
14:56until the very last.
14:57I failed your parents,
14:58so I tried
14:59to make it up to you.
15:00I treated you
15:01like my own blood.
15:02I even considered
15:03giving you the whole empire
15:04after the crash.
15:06Nice story.
15:07Too bad I don't buy it.
15:09Dad, I get it.
15:10You love Caroline.
15:11But this lie?
15:13It's ridiculous.
15:14Robert refused
15:15to even glance
15:16at the papers.
15:17His jaw set
15:18in stubborn denial.
15:19Grandpa sighed
15:20deeply.
15:21Read it, Robert.
15:22It's all here.
15:24If you don't believe
15:24the ink,
15:25go get a DNA test.
15:25During my second year
15:27of college,
15:28Grandpa needed blood.
15:29They used yours,
15:30which is impossible
15:31for direct kin.
15:32That's when I found
15:36we weren't related.
15:38That was the day
15:39I stopped fighting my heart.
15:40We weren't family by blood,
15:42and an eight-year gap
15:43was nothing.
15:43Why couldn't we be a couple?
15:45For three years,
15:46I kept a secret diary
15:47on my inns,
15:48set to only me.
15:49Every single word
15:50was about him.
15:51These were my deepest secrets,
15:53meant to stay buried forever.
15:54I never expected Melody
15:56to accidentally
15:56take my phone,
15:57and she was clumsy enough
15:59to open my private feed
16:00right in front of Robert.
16:01Everything just went south.
16:03He waved my phone in my face,
16:05just totally trashing me.
16:06He called me a total freak,
16:08said he wished
16:08I wasn't even his niece.
16:10He even moved out
16:11to get some space for me.
16:12Robert finally took a look.
16:14As his eyes hit
16:15his parents' names,
16:16they welled with tears.
16:18Dad,
16:18why bring this up?
16:19Why today?
16:20Since you decided
16:21to hide it from me back then,
16:22why couldn't you just
16:22keep it from me forever?
16:24I...
16:25I'm leaving.
16:26I might have imagined it,
16:27but he gave me a long,
16:28deep look before walking away.
16:30The old flutter
16:31in my chest was dead.
16:32I looked at him
16:33and felt nothing.
16:34Melody glared at me,
16:35her eyes dripping
16:36with pure greed.
16:37Once the two were gone,
16:38Grandpa officially
16:39amended his last will.
16:41Robert isn't a bad man,
16:43but that girl is trouble.
16:44I'm not handing the company
16:46over to him with her around.
16:47You're taking over.
16:48Grandpa, come on.
16:49I don't even know
16:49how to run a company.
16:51So you're just gonna let
16:52the Cullen name
16:52go bust right here?
16:54Ugh, bite your tongue.
16:55Don't say that.
16:55Grandpa gave my arm
16:56a light, playful slap.
16:58Gabriel was being all quiet.
17:00Then he just soothed my arm
17:01like it actually hurt.
17:03Grandpa and I just blinked.
17:04Totally didn't see that coming.
17:06Gabriel caught us looking
17:07and his face flushed.
17:10Caro,
17:10you might not be up for it,
17:11but Gabriel's a pro.
17:13With a burning face,
17:14I hurried Gabriel
17:15out of the room.
17:16I didn't see Robert
17:17for a long time
17:18after that day.
17:19Even when Grandpa
17:20sent him the notarized will,
17:21he offered no single reaction.
17:24Melody's been riding him hard,
17:25telling him to ask Grandpa
17:26for shares.
17:27But the man who once
17:28gave her everything
17:29finally said no.
17:30Dad founded the company.
17:31He can do whatever
17:32he wants with it.
17:33But you put in
17:34all for the company!
17:35It's so unfair
17:36that you end up with nothing!
17:38Let's face it,
17:39he's freezing you out
17:41because you aren't blood.
17:42Because of this,
17:43the two of them
17:44had a massive argument.
17:45The whole school
17:46was gossiping.
17:47Their drama
17:48was literally everywhere.
17:49Melody's roommate
17:50saw her selling
17:51all of Robert's gifts
17:52on eBay.
17:53She was making this huge deal
17:54about being so over him.
17:56Fast forward two days,
17:57and she's at his door
17:58with a lunchbox.
17:59I couldn't care less.
18:00I'm totally over it.
18:02Things with Gabriel
18:03have been amazing lately.
18:04Since I saw his phone,
18:06I've been living
18:06to mess with his head.
18:08It's too easy.
18:09Mr. Thorne,
18:11aren't you gonna Google
18:11where to take me tomorrow?
18:12Did your GP tell you
18:14the eye-closing rule
18:15for a first kiss yet?
