Short filmTranscript
00:00Seven years of marriage and Scarlett Hayes had just inherited billions
00:04But while going through the paperwork with her lawyer she learned the truth
00:07Her marriage certificate was a lie
00:09The fortune one she was supposed to share would now be hers alone
00:12After her lawyer dug into the details he dropped a bombshell
00:15Mr. Lancaster's spouse on record is Whitney Owens
00:18You, Mrs. Hayes, are currently unmarried
00:21The whole city of New York knew that Scarlett and York Lancaster
00:24Had been promised to each other since childhood
00:26She was York's precious jewel his everything
00:28At their wedding, York had given her the fairy tale ceremony
00:31Making vows before everyone
00:33York Lancaster will never betray Scarlett Hayes
00:36But the truth?
00:37The marriage certificate of York and Whitney was filed the day after their wedding
00:40Scarlett let out a bitter laugh
00:42She stared blankly at her phone, hands trembling as a message came in
00:46Baby, your favorite new Gucci bag just landed
00:48I'm swinging by the office first, then straight home to you, love you
00:52It was supposed to be the day York returned from his business trip
00:55Scarlett was waiting for him at the airport
00:57But as she watched the two of them step out of the terminal, her fists clenched
01:01There, York tucked his phone into his coat pocket and cupped Whitney Owens' neck
01:05Kissing her with abandon
01:06Scarlett's face was already streaked with tears
01:08York could kiss another woman while whispering love to her
01:11As she watched York, memories flooded her mind
01:16They had grown up together in middle school
01:18Scarlett's parents planned to move her abroad, but York begged them to let her stay
01:22He kneeled in front of her house for seven days, holding onto her hand as he fell unconscious, pleading
01:28Scarlett, don't go, you're mine, you've always been mine, I won't survive without you
01:33Throughout high school and college, York had always been by her side
01:36Everyone knew Scarlett was York's treasure
01:39After the scholastic assessment test, the Lancaster family pushed York to apply to a university abroad
01:44But he stayed in New York with her
01:45Where Scarlett goes, I go
01:47The second we're old enough, we're getting married
01:49At 22 they had their wedding
01:51But Scarlett never imagined that someone who loved her so deeply would betray her like this
01:55The marriage certificate was something York had arranged for the lawyer to file the very next day
01:59Claiming he didn't want to tire her out on their wedding night
02:02They had known each other since birth, inseparable for 27 years
02:06But in the end, York had secretly married another woman
02:09He had taken over her entire life
02:11And now Scarlett had made a decision
02:13She would erase him from her future no matter the cost
02:16She didn't go home, instead she went straight to the lawyer to begin asset inheritance
02:20All the Hayes family's assets were now under her name
02:23Including the Lancaster shares York had transferred to her before the marriage
02:26The lawyer asked again, confirming with her
02:29Ms. Hayes, are you sure to sell all assets, including the Hayes family business?
02:34Yes
02:35Sell it all
02:39In a matter of hours, Scarlett signed several contracts
02:42Half of the Hayes assets were sold
02:44The other half was promised to buyers from out of town
02:47Who couldn't make it immediately but were preparing funds to complete the transactions in the next few days
02:51The lawyer assured her
02:53We can finish everything in 7 days
02:55York Lancaster, your betrayal and your cruelty will all end in 7 days
02:59Three hours later, Scarlett returned to the home she shared with York
03:02York's cold gaze fixed on her
03:04Scarlett, where have you been?
03:06I called you 50 times, waited 2 hours
03:08Do you have any idea how worried I was?
03:10She met his stare head on
03:12The image burned fresh in her mind
03:13York's arm locked around Whitney's waist at the airport
03:16His mouth devouring hers like she was oxygen and he was drowning
03:19Once upon a time, those same lips on Scarlett had felt like heaven
03:23Now they made her stomach turn
03:24He stepped closer
03:26You know I hate it when you disappear without a word
03:28Wasn't the last time enough punishment for you?
03:30Before she could react, his hand grabbed her waist tightly
03:33Scarlett's body stiffened, her lashes trembling as she stood frozen
03:37The scent of his cologne, once so comforting now felt like a warning
03:40Dangerous, suffocating, she knew York's possessiveness too well
03:44At 20 she'd run off with friends for one reckless mountain trip
03:48Just to breathe
03:49York went wild, mobilizing helicopters across the city to search for her
03:52When he finally found her, the first thing he did was lock her in his apartment for an entire month
03:57Taking what he wanted relentlessly
03:59She begged him to stop
04:00But he didn't listen
04:01It was only when she swore
04:02She would never disappear again
04:03That he finally let go
04:04After that, Scarlett had been terrified of York
04:07Now York's long fingers lifted her chin
04:09Talk
04:10Scarlett
04:11Are you trying to make me punish you again?
04:13A hint of panic flashed in her eyes
04:15If he found out what she was planning
04:16To leave him for good
04:17He would truly snap
04:19Her voice trembled
04:20I
04:20I was at the hospital
04:22The words hit him like a stone
04:23His eyes darkened instantly
04:25His lips brushed her forehead as he whispered softly
04:27Baby
04:28I know you still want my kids
04:30But your body
04:30It can't
04:31We've tried for years
04:32Enough
04:33I just want you
04:34No more hospitals
04:35I hate seeing you in pain
04:3723 rounds of IVF
04:38Bruised arms
04:39Endless needles
04:40All for nothing
04:41Moments later York's phone rang
04:43He reached over and rubbed her head gently
04:45I've gotta head out for a bit
04:46Stay here
04:47Don't make me angry, Scarlett
04:49He was gone before she could answer
04:51Scarlett let out a hollow, bitter laugh
04:53So he'd only come back to make sure his little bird was still in the cage
04:56Half an hour later
04:58Scarlett received a voice message from an unfamiliar number
05:01York, is Whitney really pregnant?
05:03Yeah, three months
05:04Scarlett can't give me kids
05:06But my family needs an heir
05:07Grandfather's riding my ass
05:09The voice sounded like one of York's friends
05:11York, you insisted on marrying Scarlett
05:13That's why your grandfather made you sterilize her
05:15And forbade you two from registering your marriage
05:17Scarlett's face went deathly pale sterilization
05:20The pain in her chest intensified
05:22Her body aching as memories flooded back
05:25York had brought her a bowl of special herbal medicine on their wedding night
05:28Scarlett, this is a fertility recipe from my family
05:31Drink it, and we'll make a baby tonight
05:33Back then, she had shyly lain in his arms as he fed her every last drop
05:37He had never intended for her to have children
05:39The voice on the recording continued
05:41Of course I love Scarlett
05:42How else would I make Whitney pregnant for her?
05:44How else would I fight against my family just to keep her?
05:47My parents died in that crash because of her family
05:50I've tried to bury it
05:51I've given Scarlett everything
05:52Except kids, except a real marriage
05:55Everything else is hers
05:57And Whitney?
05:59Just your incubator?
06:00Long silence, then York's voice
06:02Quiet, honest
06:03Whitney is calm, peaceful
06:05When I'm with her, I feel at ease
06:07That's something Scarlett can never give me
06:09Scarlett couldn't bear to listen any longer
06:11She cut off the recording and let the tears fall silently
06:14So York had never found peace in his heart for her
06:16She dialed a number, her voice shaky
06:18Ryan, can you fit in one more surgery tomorrow morning?
06:22What kind?
06:22I'll call the head surgeon
06:24Abortion
06:24That night after York had left
06:26Scarlett received a text from him
06:28Scarlett, I won't be coming back tonight
06:30I drank too much
06:31And I'll go to the office in the morning
06:33Be back tomorrow night
06:34But the man who said he would go to the office
06:36Showed up at the hospital with Whitney Owens
06:38There, in the gynecology department
06:40Scarlett saw York holding Whitney close
06:42Shielding her in a corner
06:44That domineering protection
06:45Just like the way he used to shield her
06:47York, I'm fine
06:48There are too many pregnant women here
06:50Don't worry
06:51York's voice was low, filled with restraint
06:53I told you to go to a private hospital
06:55But you insisted not
06:57This place is not good at all
06:59Whitney's eyes darkened
07:01York, I'm just a servant's daughter
07:02Not at your or Miss Scarlett's status
07:04This costs less
07:05And I don't want to waste your money
07:06York's profile softened with tenderness
07:09Scarlett always wants the best
07:10The most expensive
07:11One bag for her costs what you make in 10 years
07:14She is never understanding like you
07:16As York spoke he embraced Whitney
07:18And kissed her forehead
07:19Scarlett hiding in plain sight
07:20Couldn't bear it any longer
07:22York had transferred all his Lancaster shares
07:24To her before their wedding
07:25And then Scarlett heard York say
07:27You'll stay with my parents for the pregnancy
07:28And the green diamond I bought at the auction
07:31Will be made into your wedding ring
07:32The green diamond
07:33The one she had once told York about
07:35Saying it symbolized
07:36One and only
07:37She had begged him to get it for her
07:39The bitter realization churned in her gut
07:41As she made her way toward the operating room
07:43As she changed into her surgical gown
07:45Her phone rang
07:45It was York
07:46She answered
07:47Her voice barely masking her exhaustion
07:49Scarlett you awake?
07:50Still upset
07:51His tone was unusually soft
07:53I've got 99 roses coming your way
07:55Our wedding anniversary's coming up
07:57I'll surprise you
07:58Just wait
07:58Scarlett hung up
08:00Not wanting to hear another word
08:02Lying on the cold operating table
08:04Scarlett stared up at the sterile ceiling
08:06Her heart as numb as the instruments
08:08That would soon end her only hope
08:10The recovery room door swung open
08:12Ryan stepped in
08:13Face pale
08:14Eyes heavy with worry
08:15Scarlett
08:15Listen
08:16If you do this
08:17You may never be able to have a child again
08:19Are you sure you want to do this?
08:21Tears blurred Scarlett's vision
08:22But she forced herself to speak
08:24I've decided
08:25Ryan
08:26The twins were her gift to York
08:27For their seventh wedding anniversary
08:29A gift he never wanted
08:30One he had tried to destroy from the start
08:32Cold instruments entered her body
08:34The pain twisted like a knife
08:36Each twist pulling at her insides
08:38And with it she cut the last remaining link
08:40Between her and York
08:41When she woke up after the procedure
08:43The first message she received
08:44Was from an unknown number
08:45It was a location for a bridal shop
08:47Despite the pain
08:48Scarlett dragged herself into a car
08:50And headed straight there
08:51When she arrived
08:52York and Whitney were just outside
08:54York had his arms wrapped around Whitney
08:56His voice filled with helplessness
08:58Whitney
08:58You're my wife
08:59I can't give you the big public wedding you deserve
09:02But at least let me see you in white tonight
09:05York
09:06It's too much
09:07The dresses here cost a fortune
09:08York gently touched her nose
09:10His voice full of tenderness
09:12Silly girl
09:12I can't give you my name on paper
09:14But I can make you happy
09:15Let me do this for you
09:17Scarlett sat in the car
09:18Her chest aching
09:19Whitney was his wife now
09:20Then who was she?
09:22Watching York treat Whitney
09:23The same way he once treated her
09:24Holding her
09:25Kissing her
09:26Speaking to her with affection
09:27It felt like a dagger to her heart
09:29And in that second
09:30Any flicker of regret about the abortion died
09:32York Lancaster didn't deserve to breathe the same air as her children
09:36She and York had picked out their wedding dress in this very shop
09:39And now several luxury cars lined up in front
09:41Out of the car stepped York's friends
09:43Guys she had known for years
09:45Scarlett overheard their conversation
09:46York's throwing Whitney a secret wedding right here tonight
09:49Full surprise
09:50Scarlett gonna flip if she finds out
09:52Scarlett can't have kids
09:54So York lied to her
09:55Even the marriage certificate was fake
09:57Scarlett felt her blood run cold
09:58So all the friends she had grown up with knew about York's betrayal?
10:02The bridal shop was hers
10:03She had opened it when she was bored in college
10:05Every wedding dress in the store was designed by her
10:08Only the manager knew she was the owner
10:11Once the crowd entered
10:12Scarlett slipped through the back door
10:14She stood at a shadowy spot on the third floor
10:16Where she could watch without being seen
10:18There on the stage stood York in a white suit
10:20And Whitney in a snow-white wedding dress
10:23His dress
10:24The inspiration came from their first kiss
10:26When York had pinned her against a blackboard
10:28His lips tasting of strawberry candy
10:30She had designed it calling it first love
10:32Now York and Whitney stood on the stage
10:34Surrounded by friends she had known all her life
10:37They clapped and cheered
10:38York your bride is beautiful
10:40York congratulations
10:42It's time to exchange rings
10:44Scarlett watched as York took the ring from the box
10:46The rings were identical
10:47To the ones
10:48They had exchanged at their wedding
10:50So even the rings were part of this twisted triangle
10:52Suddenly the lights on stage flickered and went out
10:54But the lights above where Scarlett stood remained brightly lit
10:57The moment York saw Scarlett
10:59His eyes turned red
11:00He dropped everything
11:01Abandoned Whitney
11:02And rushed toward the third floor
11:04Everyone watched as York trembled
11:06His face ashen
11:07He shakily wrapped his arms around Scarlett
11:10Who looked lifeless
11:11Her eyes dull
11:11Scarlett
11:12Baby listen
11:13His voice cracked
11:14We were just shooting a promo video
11:16That's all
11:17I had drops citywide on our anniversary
11:20It was gonna be my surprise for you
11:22The ring is designed for you
11:23Only you
11:24York's trembling hand immediately placed the ring on Scarlett's ring finger
11:28But Scarlett could feel it
11:29The ring wouldn't fit
11:30It wasn't her size
11:31Meanwhile downstairs Whitney's face was pale
11:34Tears brimming in her eyes
11:35York's voice turned icy
11:37Secretary Owens
11:38My wife is upset
11:39You'd better explain
11:40Right now
11:41Whitney's voice was meek
11:42Full of submission
11:43Ms. Hayes
11:44This whole wedding setup
11:45It's just for the commercial
11:46The ad's scheduled to run everywhere
11:48Three days from now
11:49On your anniversary
11:50York's handsome face broke into a smile as he held Scarlett close
11:53See baby
11:54It's all for you
11:55Everything I do is for you
11:57I love you
11:58Scarlett
11:58That's never gonna change
11:5927 years of those same sweet words
12:02She'd swallowed everyone
12:03Believed everyone
12:04And now he stood here
12:06After betraying her
12:07After sterilizing her
12:08After giving another woman their rings
12:10And had the nerve to say them again
12:11In front of everyone
12:13Whitney
12:13Whitney
12:14Clearly stung by York's words
12:15Couldn't hold herself back
12:18I wish Mr. Lancaster and Mrs. Lancaster a lifetime of happiness
12:22May you have a baby soon?
12:25The word baby slammed into Scarlett like a blade
12:27She turned and ran
12:28Down the stairs
12:29Out the door
12:30No looking back
12:30York's voice cracked as he screamed her name
12:32Whitney
12:33He frantically ran after her
12:35Scarlett stood frozen
12:36Watching as York chased after Whitney
12:38A black SUV screamed around the corner
12:40Brakes screeched too late
12:42The impact was deafening
12:43Whitney's body flew
12:45White dress flaring like wings
12:46Then slammed onto the asphalt
12:48Scarlett stepped to the road
12:49Standing there as York screamed in agony
12:51Whitney
12:52No
12:52York rushed to her
12:53Cradling her in his arms
12:55Trembling uncontrollably
12:57Whitney in her last moments
12:58Turned her body to protect York from the impact
13:00Taking the brunt of the car's second hit
13:02Blood poured out onto the street
13:04Whitney
13:04Still coughing up blood
13:05Gasped
13:06The baby
13:07York
13:07Save our baby
13:09York's eyes met Scarlett's
13:10Filled with unbearable pain
13:12Scarlett
13:13I told you
13:13There's nothing between us
13:15It was just the ad
13:16Why won't you believe me?
13:17Why did you have to do this?
13:19In that moment
13:19Scarlett saw hatred in York's eyes
13:22He could also hear the voices around them
13:23Mason spoke up
13:24His tone harsh
13:25Scarlett
13:26York really loves you
13:27He sent Whitney away
13:28For seven years
13:30Married her only because his grandpa forced it
13:34Others timed in
13:35Scarlett
13:35You're being too cruel
13:36Whitney never asked for anything
13:38She's carried his kid quietly
13:40How can you take everything from her?
13:41All those friends who once called Scarlett and York the perfect couple
13:44Destined for each other
13:45Now stood like self-righteous judges
13:47Arms crossed
13:49Eyes hard
13:50They blamed her for York's seven years of deceit
13:52Yet somehow it was still her fault
13:54Whitney had been sent to the hospital
13:56Scarlett followed close behind
13:58Whitney had bled heavily
13:59The baby couldn't be saved
14:01And her uterus had been removed due to excessive blood loss
14:04York was devastated
14:05Whitney
14:06I'm so sorry
14:07I shouldn't have mistaken everything you quietly did for me
14:10Thinking it was Scarlett's doing
14:11I love the wrong person
14:13I always thought it was her
14:14Scarlett was stunned by his words
14:16So everything Whitney did for York
14:18York thought it was her?
14:19A bitter smile crept onto Scarlett's face
14:21She had done so much for him too
14:23From the moment she was a child
14:25She had silently been his blood bank
14:27Since she was five
14:28She knew York had a platelet deficiency
14:29And needed regular blood transfusions
14:31She was terrified he might die
14:35She had given him her blood all these years
14:38And she had always gotten sick while York grew stronger
14:41Later, in middle school
14:42Her parents tried to take her away
14:44Worried she was giving her life away for York
14:46York had thought it was because he knelt for seven days
14:48That they allowed her to stay
14:49But in reality
14:50It was Scarlett who had threatened to die
14:52Now hearing York express his regrets about loving her
14:55Scarlett realized something
14:56He regretted it too
14:57Had she known their love would end up like this
15:00She would have never allowed it to start
15:02Scarlett turned toward the elevator
15:03But just a few steps away
15:05York collapsed to the floor
15:06This time, she chose not to save him
15:08The silence of the night was suffocating
15:10Scarlett sat alone in the villa
15:12Yet the chaos on her social media was anything but quiet
15:15Everyone she knew was reposting a video
15:17In the video, the bride's face was hidden
15:19But the groom was placing a ring on her finger
15:21The caption read
15:22Mr. Lancaster and Mrs. Lancaster's seventh wedding anniversary
15:25Scarlett's lips twisted into a mocking smile
15:28Seven years
15:29The same seven years York and Whitney had been together
15:31Her phone rang
15:32York's grandpa
15:33She answered it
15:34Scarlett, York needs blood urgently
15:36Get to the hospital
15:37Now
15:40Scarlett's eyes flashed with coldness
15:42Sorry, Mr. Lancaster
15:43I'm neither York's wife nor his girlfriend
15:45We're not even related
15:47I've got zero obligation to save him
15:49You understand now, huh?
15:51Scarlett sneered
15:51Thanks to you
15:52Now I don't even have to divorce him
15:54If he dies tonight
15:55Maybe I'll attend his funeral
15:56Scarlett
15:57You're exactly like your grandfather
15:59The person I've hated most in this world
16:01Charles Lancaster hung up
16:03For the entire night
16:04Scarlett didn't sleep
16:05She spent the night alone
16:07Going through all the things related to her and York
16:09Scarlett shattered the wedding photos one by one with a hammer
16:12The floor was covered in shattered glass
16:14The clothes York had bought for her
16:16He packed them all up
16:17Including jewelry and bags
16:19In the dead of night
16:20She had everything sent off to a second-hand auction
16:22The gifts she and York had exchanged over the years
16:25He packed them up too
16:27Scarlett stared at the rabbit doll York had bought for her when she cried as a child
16:30She moved everything to the yard and set it all on fire
16:33Her phone rang again
16:34It was an unfamiliar number and the message read
16:37I never knew he loved me this much
16:39The kind of love that makes a man give up everything, even his own life
16:43Scarlett replied with one line
16:44Whitney, congrats, you just took out my trash
16:49Three hours later
16:50Scarlett received a message that York had woken up
16:53She knew the Lancaster private hospital
16:55Still kept five bags of her blood on standby
16:5727 years of regular donations
16:59Just in case York ever needed it
17:01Last night he'd been bleeding out
17:03Those five bags were probably gone
17:05She looked at the ashes
17:0627 years of her life
17:08Reduced to a few hours of cleanup
17:10Done
17:10The front door burst open
17:12Two of York's bodyguards stormed in
17:14No words
17:15Just grabbed her arms and dragged her out
17:17She was forcibly taken to the hospital
17:19When she pushed open the door to the hospital room
17:21There York was holding Whitney in his arms
17:23York's eyes were full of rage
17:25Scarlett, how dare you bribe the doctor to kill Whitney's baby
17:29How dare you make them rip out her uterus
17:31Scarlett froze
17:32She heard the doctor speak
17:33Mr. Lancaster
17:34Miss Hayes threatened me
17:36Said if I didn't remove Mrs. Lancaster's uterus
17:38My whole family would be run out of New York
17:40York let go of Whitney and walked towards Scarlett
17:43His anger palpable
17:44For the first time, York grabbed her by the neck
17:47How could you use money and power to destroy her?
17:49When did you turn into this monster?
17:52As York's words hit her
17:53Scarlett had the love he once had for her
17:55Only anger and disgust
17:57Scarlett smiled bitterly and said
17:59York, it's just a uterus
18:01If I want, I'll buy her life
18:02Without warning
18:03York slapped her across the face
18:05The force knocking her to the ground
18:06York's voice was cold, almost mechanical
18:09Get her to the operating room
18:10Remove her uterus
18:11Two doctors immediately restrained her
18:13Scarlett's mind spun
18:15York, what did you just say?
18:17York's eyes were filled with ice
18:18You can't owe someone forever
18:20Scarlett, you took Whitney's baby
18:22Now you pay it back?
18:23Once you've given her what she lost
18:24I'll love you again, like before
18:26At a single glance from York
18:28The doctors took Scarlett away
18:30One held a syringe of anesthetic and injected it into her arm
18:33Within seconds, Scarlett's vision blurred
18:35And she drifted into unconsciousness
18:38In her fading consciousness
18:39She heard York's voice again holding Whitney in his arms
18:42Baby, don't cry
18:43It kills me when you cry
18:45Through the fog, she could hear York and the doctor's conversation clearly
18:48Mr. Lancaster
18:50Miss Hayes already had a uterine scrape recently
18:52Is removing her uterus really necessary?
18:56York's voice was low with doubt as he asked
18:58A uterine scrape?
18:59The doctor quickly explained
19:00A uterine scrape might be necessary if there are conditions like fibroids
19:04York's voice grew colder
19:05Remove Scarlett's uterus and show it to Whitney
19:08She's been crying non-stop
19:09Do the surgery now
19:11The doctor hesitated
19:12Mr. Lancaster
19:13We have to wait at least an hour after the anesthesia wears off
19:16York's impatience flared
19:18Scarlett's already unconscious
19:20Do it immediately
19:21A single tear rolled down Scarlett's cheek
19:23Her uterus was taken
19:25All to stop Whitney from crying
19:27Scarlett lost a lot of blood
19:29When she finally woke up two days later
19:31York's cold eyes met hers
19:33Before she could say anything York spoke
19:35His voice cold and accusing
19:36You nearly bled out
19:38Whitney was the one who gave you blood
19:40Scarlett
19:40You owe her now
19:42Do you understand?
19:43Whitney standing by and peeling an orange shyly added
19:46York
19:46Please
19:47I'm not looking for thanks from Miss Scarlett
19:50But half my blood is inside her now
19:51If saving her life means giving every last drop of mine
19:54I'd do it
19:55Even if it killed me
19:57Her words were so sweet so selfless
19:59But York responded with an icy tone
20:01Scarlett
20:02You owe Whitney
20:03You will pay her back with your identity
20:04Scarlett's gaze was fixed on York
20:06But there was no longer light in her eyes
20:08She silently endured the pain and sat up in bed
20:11Whitney
20:11Who had been quietly watching them
20:13Suddenly spoke
20:14Her voice trembling with emotion
20:16York
20:17I don't want anything
20:18I just want you and Scarlett to be happy
20:20I can leave
20:21And never see you again
20:22With those words
20:23Whitney collapsed
20:24York immediately let go of Scarlett
20:26And rushed to catch Whitney in his arms
20:28Not everyone's gonna keep indulging you
20:29Scarlett
20:30Whitney gave you her blood
20:31You should be on your knees thanking her
20:33Your grandfather's dead
20:34You've got no one left in New York
20:36Scarlett understood in that moment
20:38Not going abroad with her parents had been a huge mistake
20:41York quickly left the room still holding Whitney tightly
20:44Scarlett
20:44Gritting her teeth against the pain
20:46Left the hospital
20:47Her phone buzzed with several messages from her lawyer
20:50Miss Scarlett
20:51The remaining buyers have arrived in New York
20:53And are ready to sign the contracts
20:54Scarlett went straight to the law firm
20:56She completed the sale of the last half of the Hayes family assets
20:59And the shares York had given her
21:01He personally found the buyers for them
21:05Her next move was to contact York's sworn enemy Sean Barrett
21:08He sent him a message
21:09Prepare 30 billion
21:10I'll sell you all my Lancaster shares
21:12Sean's reply was brief
21:14Done
21:14She would destroy Lancaster and with it York
21:16Just as he had destroyed her she would destroy him
21:19Completely
21:19Scarlett glanced toward the shopping mall across the street
21:22Where a large screen was broadcasting York's public announcement of his marriage to Whitney
21:26Seven years ago
21:27I married Whitney
21:28Let me be clear
21:29My wife
21:30My only wife
21:31Has always been Whitney
21:32Scarlett's clear gaze revealed nothing
21:35Her phone rang
21:35And it was York's name on the screen
21:37Scarlett answered
21:38Her voice calm
21:39York's anger-filled voice erupted
21:41Scarlett
21:41Get your ass back to the hospital right now
21:43Whitney's getting worse
21:45You're the one who's gonna take care of her
21:46Scarlett stared at the screen
21:48Her voice indifferent
21:49Didn't you already give her my uterus?
21:51What more do you want?
21:52My hands too
21:53York's voice grew harsher
21:55Don't play games
21:56Whitney lost our baby
21:57Do you even get what that does to a mother?
21:59Scarlett's heart twisted in pain as memories of the two lost children flashed in her mind
22:03York, I understand
22:07York's tone softened
22:08Since you understand, come take care of Whitney
22:10If you do, I'll forgive you
22:12You wanted both women
22:13Scarlett took a deep breath and spoke
22:15Her voice steady
22:16York, we're done
22:17They didn't have a real marriage
22:19Seven years of an illegal marriage
22:21And now it would all end
22:22She hung up
22:23Scarlett found a quiet cafe
22:24She dialed her lawyer
22:25Scarlett didn't need their gratitude
22:27Nor their fake kindness
22:28But those she had helped stood against her now
22:30Hurting her instead
22:32She couldn't bear it
22:33She would take back everything she had ever given them
22:35Three things
22:36First, back Mason Harris's brother for CEO of Harris Group
22:40With all my shares
22:41Second, leak everything about the Blackwood scandal
22:43Third, the evidence tying old Mr. Lancaster to his son and daughter-in-law's deaths
22:48Hand it to the police
22:49Today
22:49The power struggle over the Harris family years ago
22:52It was Scarlett who had helped Mason secretly
22:54As for the elder Mr. Lancaster's role in his own son's death
22:57Scarlett's grandfather had known all along
23:00And the Blackwood family
23:01York's good friend Hugo
23:02Had come to her six months ago asking for a loan
23:05She had lent him money
23:06Though she had helped stood against her now
23:08She would take back everything
23:11The final meeting was with Sean Barrett
23:13Scarlett, I know you need this done fast
23:16But I can only gather half the money now
23:18The rest will be in your account within a week
23:20Sean's voice was dark
23:21Are you sure about this, Scarlett?
23:23Once I buy those Lancaster shares
23:25York won't climb out of the grave I dig for him
23:28Without hesitation, Scarlett signed the transfer agreement
23:31Once the contract was signed
23:33Sean personally took her to the airport
23:35Scarlett, stay, just a little longer, please
23:37Scarlett looked at him
23:39Sean, congratulations
23:40From today on, the top five families in New York will be reduced to just the Barrett family
23:45She walked toward the boarding gate without looking back
23:47York would be a part of her past
23:49A past better left behind
23:51York stared at his phone
23:52Had Scarlett really said, done?
23:54They had been together for over 20 years
23:56York called her again
23:57But the phone didn't connect
23:59If it weren't for Whitney secretly donating a bag of blood every six months
24:02Stored in Lancaster Hospital
24:04He would have died by now
24:06What he hadn't known was that all this time
24:08The blood being donated wasn't from adults
24:10It was from Whitney's fragile body
24:12She had saved his life for 20 years
24:15York had always thought it was Scarlett
24:16Because every time he received a blood transfusion
24:19Scarlett was always the one lying on the bed next to him
24:22It wasn't until half a year ago that he realized the person saving him wasn't Scarlett
24:26It was Whitney
24:27At that moment, a nurse ran into the room
24:29Mr. Lancaster
24:30Mrs. Lancaster is awake
24:32The moment York heard Mrs. Lancaster
24:34His first thought was Scarlett
24:35But he quickly realized it was Whitney
24:37York rushed to the next room where Whitney lay, tears streaming
24:40I'm sorry, York, let's get a divorce
24:42I'm the one who caused all the problems
24:44York pulled Whitney into his arms
24:47Overwhelmed with guilt
24:48Whitney, you haven't done anything wrong
24:50Scarlett's uterus has already been taken
24:52I gave it to you
24:53I'll take care of you now
24:54Two weeks passed with no news from Scarlett
24:57Meanwhile, the news was full of scandals involving his closest friends
25:00Mason had been kicked out
25:02The Blackwood family was being investigated
25:04Mason arrived at the hospital
25:05York, where's Scarlett?
25:07I've been looking for her for the past two weeks
25:09York's brows furrowed
25:10If she's not at the villa, where else would she be?
25:13Mason's face fell
25:13York, Scarlett's not at the villa
25:15Her phone is off
25:17York refused to believe it
25:18Scarlett had always been attached to him
25:20York stepped forward
25:22But before he could move, Whitney burst into tears
25:24York, let me go with you
25:26I'll apologize to Scarlett
25:27York looked at her
25:28Whitney, wait for me here
25:30As soon as the door shut
25:31Whitney's face transformed
25:33A cruel smile curled her lips
25:35Scarlett, you've finally left
25:37York arrived at the villa and searched high and low
25:39Scarlett was nowhere to be found
25:41One of the servants nervously spoke up
25:43Mr. Lancaster
25:44Mrs. Lancaster's things are all gone
25:46There's a barrel in the yard where a lot of things have been burned
25:49York ran to the room
25:50Scarlett's things were gone from the closet
25:52Frantically, he rushed to the large iron barrel
25:54Amid the ashes, he could still make out the shapes
25:56Gifts he had given her
25:58A rabbit doll, clothes
25:59York crouched in front of the barrel
26:00Staring at the ashes
26:02His heart shattered
26:03His phone rang
26:03It was his assistant
26:04Mr. Lancaster
26:06Scarlett left for Y-Country two weeks ago
26:08All of the Hayes family assets have been liquidated
26:10Including Hayes Tower
26:12York's phone slipped from his hand she had left
26:14He rushed to the Hayes family mansion
26:16It was empty
26:17The company had been sold
26:18Mason nervously explained
26:20York, the 18% of shares supporting me were Scarlett's
26:23She sold them to my older brother
26:24The Blackwood family fell
26:26I was out
26:26All of them had been helped by Scarlett
26:30York's face went pale
26:31His assistant's call came again
26:33The last person she met was Sean Barrett
26:35York's jealousy flared
26:36He dialed the number
26:37Sean answered with a laugh
26:39York, aren't you asking a bit too late?
26:41Scarlett sold all her shares to me
26:43300 billion
26:44Now you're about to be kicked out of Lancaster Group
26:47York felt a surge of blood rush to his head
26:49Sean continued
26:50Scarlett risked her life for you
26:51She's nearly died several times giving you blood
26:54Just those 300 billion don't even come close to what she's sacrificed
26:57Sean sent through images
26:59York stared at the photos
27:00Each one of Scarlett when they were younger
27:02He was unconscious
27:03Injured and she was sitting beside him
27:05Giving him blood
27:06He could see the love in her eyes as she smiled at him
27:08There were more images
27:09Scarlett leaning over his bed
27:11The IV line still attached to her arm
27:13York looked at the records
27:14They were all signed by Scarlett herself
27:16The pieces fell into place
27:17His grandfather had lied
27:19It was Scarlett
27:20It had always been Scarlett
27:22York's body trembled with fury
27:23He sped back to the Lancaster family mansion
27:26He headed straight for his grandfather's study
27:28With a violent kick
27:30He threw open the door
27:31But what York saw he never could have imagined
27:36Whitney Owens
27:37In a stark white outfit
27:39Crouched between Charles Lancaster's legs
27:41York's stomach churned
27:42His icy gaze locked onto them
27:44Charles, what exactly are you and Whitney doing here?
27:47Whitney's face drained of color
27:48She collapsed to the floor
27:49York, please let me explain
27:51Charles remained calm
27:53York, there's nothing to explain
27:54Whitney is mine
27:56York's gaze hardened
27:57So you used her before I even married her?
27:59Whitney clutched York's leg
28:00York, I was forced
28:01Charles told me
28:02If I served him, the Lancaster Empire would be yours
28:05York kicked her away
28:06At that moment he had lost all trust in Whitney
28:09He'd had everything investigated
28:10Whitney's blood type didn't even match his
28:13Charles' face darkened
28:14York, she's just a woman
28:15You want her, fine, take her
28:17Whitney screamed
28:18No!
28:19I want to stay with York
28:21Charles raped me when I was 19
28:23York's cold eyes locked onto Charles
28:25So, it was you who forced me to marry Whitney?
28:27To get her to take that sterilization drug for Scarlett?
28:30Charles just smirked
28:31Back then, Whitney was pregnant, and I wanted a son
28:34Whitney's rage exploded
28:35You bastard!
28:37York dragged Whitney out of the Lancaster house
28:41Soon, a photo of Whitney was plastered on the front page
28:44Mrs. Lancaster and Mr. Lancaster's explosive affair revealed
28:48York locked Whitney in a run-down house
28:50York slapped Whitney hard
28:51You ruined everything with Scarlett
28:53His lawyer was already handling the divorce papers
28:56Whitney's eyes widened
28:57York, I know you still want Scarlett
28:59I'll quietly remain your shadow
29:01York threw a stack of photos at her
29:03You've been seducing grandpa since 10 years ago
29:05Whitney's face drained of color
29:07York grabbed her phone and restored deleted messages
29:09Whitney had been planning everything
29:11Sending taunting messages to Scarlett
29:13Even the sterilization drugs
29:15Whitney had gotten them
29:16York felt a stab of pain
29:18Even the car accident?
29:19You set it up to hit Scarlett
29:21But the driver hit you instead
29:22Whitney cried out
29:23York, please!
29:25York stared at her with disgust
29:26You wanted Scarlett to die?
29:28Now you'll rot in prison
29:29Whitney suddenly smiled, chilling and cruel
29:31York, do you remember when you took me for a checkup?
29:34Scarlett was there too
29:35She went into the operating room for an abortion
29:38York froze
29:39You're lying
29:39Whitney smirked
29:40Senior Ryan knows, ask him
29:42York's hands grabbed her neck
29:44That's no excuse
29:47Whitney gasped
29:48But she'll never forgive you
29:49York's eyes turned cold
29:51He pulled out his phone
29:52Moments later, a group of beggars was ushered in
29:54York allowed the men to torment Whitney
29:56Whitney lay on the ground, laughing hysterically
29:58You can never divorce me
30:00A message from his lawyer popped up
30:02Two divorce certificates
30:03York spoke coldly
30:04Whitney, we're getting divorced
30:06When the images were placed in front of her, she screamed
30:09No! I'm the real Mrs. Lancaster
30:11York turned and walked out
30:13He gave orders to his bodyguards
30:14Send her to the police station tomorrow morning
30:17York arrived at the hospital and found Ryan
30:19Ryan handed him a record
30:20Scarlett's pregnancy, one and a half months, twins
30:23York's heart shattered
30:25He staggered backward
30:26Scarlett really?
30:27She's carrying my children
30:28She went through multiple rounds of IVF
30:31She wanted a child so badly
30:33She had to inject over 78 times
30:36York's voice cracked
30:37She's so afraid of pain
30:39Ryan continued
30:40When the IVF was successful
30:41She wanted to surprise you for your anniversary
30:43Ryan added the final devastating blow
30:46Grandpa Hazes will require a marriage certificate to inherit
30:49The marriage certificate you gave her was fake
30:53York, Scarlett
30:55Will never be able to have children again
30:57To sever all ties with you
30:58She gave up her one chance at motherhood
31:00York covered his face with his hands
31:02His sobs wracking his body
31:04Scarlett
31:04York had even taken away Whitney's ability to have children
31:07But what he never realized was that Scarlett's fragile womb
31:10Had once carried his two children
31:11For years, Scarlett had secretly undergone treatments
31:14One time, he had rushed home to find her pale and curled up in pain
31:18She said it was just cramps
31:19He had believed her
31:20That wasn't period pain
31:22Scarlett had been enduring the pain of preparing for pregnancy
31:25The drastic cold medicine he gave her on their wedding night had inflicted irreparable harm
31:29York left the hospital feeling hollow
31:31His phone beeped
31:32It was a news report about his parents' deaths
31:35With all the evidence pointing back to Grandpa
31:37The butler's frantic voice came through
31:39Master, Grandpa has been taken by the police
31:42York's voice was dark
31:43Did Grandpa really kill my parents?
31:45The butler recounted events from over 20 years ago
31:48Their parents had taken the Hayes family car
31:50The brakes weren't working
31:51They tumbled off a cliff
31:52York felt like his chest had been ripped open
31:54All these years
31:56He had been torn
31:59And now the truth was in
32:00In front of him
32:04His grandfather had been the mastermind
32:05York went to the police station
32:07When Grandpa saw him he merely sighed
32:09York, everything you've heard
32:10It's true
32:11I've been fighting with that old man from the Hayes family my entire life
32:15York's red eyes filled with hatred
32:16So you destroyed everything with Scarlett
32:19You took my parents' lives just to win?
32:21Grandpa showed no remorse
32:22Seven years ago, I secretly transferred all my shares to Scarlett
32:26Now those shares have been fully acquired by the Barrett family
32:29You personally sold Lancaster
32:31Grandpa Lancaster spat out blood
32:33What did you say?
32:34York's smile grew more pronounced
32:35Scarlett has been in control of Lancaster's stock for all these years
32:39Grandpa's anger flared
32:40You bastard!
32:41I should've killed Scarlett back then
32:43York spoke coldly
32:44Grandpa, you stay in prison and pay for my parents' deaths
32:47Grandpa laughed bitterly
32:49That old man from the Hayes family
32:51I had people take care of him
32:53York froze
32:53Far abroad
32:54Scarlett received a call
32:56Tears filled her eyes
32:57My grandfather didn't die from an illness
32:59He was murdered
33:00Two days later
33:01Scarlett returned to New York
33:03She went straight to the cemetery
33:06Grandpa, I regret it
33:08I regret being with York
33:09From behind a large tree
33:10York heard her words
33:12He had waited three days
33:13Now she was finally here
33:14York ran to her
33:15Pulling her into his arms
33:16Scarlett, I'm sorry our child
33:18But Scarlett interrupted him
33:20Her tone was flat
33:21My parents are waiting
33:22Let me go
33:23All the words York had been dying to say
33:25Were swallowed back down
33:26Grandpa killed your grandfather
33:27He will face legal consequences
33:29Scarlett only replied with a cold response
33:32York, there's no need
33:33She pushed him away
33:34And walked toward a black car
33:36On the way back to the city
33:37Scarlett saw billboards flashing the same words
33:40Scarlett, I'm sorry
33:41I know I was wrong
33:42Please forgive me
33:43A month ago
33:44York had announced his marriage to Whitney
33:46Now he was begging for her back
33:48Scarlett returned to the hotel
33:50And ran into Sean
33:51York came
33:52But I had security not let him in
33:53Mmm, thank you, Sean
33:55York's car pulled up
33:56Scarlett glanced at York
33:58Right now
33:59The Hayes and Lancaster families
34:01Are plaintiff and defendant
34:02We'll see each other in court
34:04Two weeks later
34:04Grandpa Lancaster's case was finalized
34:07Three lives all sentenced to death
34:12Scarlett stared at the news
34:13Watching as York stood outside Sean's hotel
34:16With 999 roses
34:17Kneeling on one knee
34:19York caused a stir for several days
34:21Sean suggested they leave through the rooftop helicopter platform
34:24Scarlett looked down
34:25She could still see York standing there
34:27After a long pause she said quietly
34:29Fine
34:30A helicopter lifted off
34:31Behind it another followed fiercely
34:33Sean's phone kept ringing
34:35Scarlett answered
34:36York's angry voice came through
34:38Sean, give Scarlett back to me
34:40Scarlett's voice was calm
34:41York
34:42The silence from York was followed by a choking sound
34:45Scarlett, meet me
34:46I've divorced Whitney
34:47It was her and Grandpa who deceived me
34:49Tears welled in Scarlett's eyes
34:51York, I don't care
34:52Let's part ways
34:53Any explanation from you is meaningless
34:55Scarlett, I love you
34:57Scarlett hung up
34:58The helicopter behind them finally stopped chasing
35:00Sean explained the past month
35:02Whitney was always Grandpa's woman
35:04The biggest reason York betrayed you
35:06Was because Grandpa told him Whitney had been giving him blood all these years
35:09Scarlett's fingers pulled up her sleeve
35:11Though the needle marks had faded
35:13The pain still lingered
35:15Sean, I was afraid of pain
35:17But I was even more afraid of York dying
35:19Now I'm not afraid anymore
35:21This time she and York were saying their final goodbye
35:23York watched as the helicopter flew off into the sky
35:26Scarlett's last words echoed
35:28Any explanation no longer mattered
35:30He collapsed and was rushed to the hospital
35:32After three days he survived
35:34But only one person came to see him, Mason
35:37He said
35:38Brother, the bridal shop where you had your wedding with Whitney?
35:41It's Scarlett's
35:41York ran toward the bridal shop
35:43The shopkeeper looked at him
35:45It's mine now Miss Hayes sold it to me
35:47The shopkeeper returned with a bridal catalog
35:49These are all dresses Scarlett personally designed
35:52York's trembling hands flipped open the first page
35:55Beside each dress was a short passage
35:57He said I was like a jellyfish, cute, yet poisonous
36:00Then he came across the dress Whitney had worn
36:03First love, this was the first time he kissed me
36:05He had just eaten strawberry candy
36:07York's tears fell onto the pages
36:10Scarlett had always loved him in her own way
36:12York bought the bridal shop
36:13Whitney had always known it was Scarlett's
36:16She had brought him there, praising its frugality
36:19But in the end she had destroyed Scarlett completely
36:22York had searched for Scarlett for five years
36:24Traveling the world
36:26The only news he received came from the front page
36:28The heiress of the Hayes family and president of Barrett Group
36:31Sean Barrett to marry in three days
36:33York never imagined that Scarlett had been in New York all along
36:37His plane arrived back the next day
36:39He headed straight to Barrett Group
36:40The first person he saw was Scarlett
36:42He rushed over, pulling her into a tight embrace
36:45Scarlett, I finally found you
36:47York, this is my husband's office
36:49York froze
36:50No, I won't let you marry anyone else
36:52York, I've only been abroad for a year
36:55The past four years, I've been in New York
36:57York visibly shaken replied
36:59It doesn't matter, we've been together for 27 years
37:02Scarlett handed him a card
37:03This is 30 billion
37:05It's the money from your shares
37:06Now we're even
37:08York's face turned pale
37:09Scarlett, I beg you, marry me again
37:11But what York received was a marriage certificate with Scarlett and Sean's names
37:15York coughed up blood
37:17Scarlett, I never meant to hurt you
37:18Scarlett's hand brushed against York's temple
37:21Where a few strands of white hair had appeared
37:24York, I won't save you anymore
37:25Take care of yourself
37:27Scarlett withdrew her hand and walked toward Sean
37:29York watched as Scarlett was embraced by Sean
37:32His eyes burned
37:33Scarlett, I won't give up on you
37:35But he didn't take the card
37:37The wedding went on as planned
37:38As it began the screens displayed 999 love letters
37:42The guests saw the last letter dated a year ago
37:44Then they saw the very first letter dated 17 years ago
37:47Scarlett's eyes filled with shock
37:49This is a love letter I never had the courage to send
37:52Scarlett, I think I've fallen for you
37:54Scarlett felt tears welling up
37:56She hadn't expected that Sean had started secretly loving her back in high school
38:00Just then security's panicked voice broke through
38:03Mr. Sean, someone's trying to commit suicide on the rooftop
38:06It's Mr. York
38:07Scarlett's hand trembled
38:09Sean looked at her
38:10Scarlett, I'll handle this
38:12Scarlett shook her head
38:13Sean, the wedding will proceed
38:15Can we delay it by 20 minutes?
38:17Sean pulled her into his arms
38:19I know you won't feel right if something happens to him
38:21I'll wait for you
38:22Scarlett reached the rooftop
38:24York stood there in the white suit they had worn on their wedding day
38:27York, do you want to die?
38:29York's red eyes were filled with pain
38:31Scarlett, I can't live without you
38:33Scarlett smiled through her tears
38:35I felt the same way when I saw you kiss Whitney
38:37York's voice was desperate
38:38Scarlett, forgive me
38:40Scarlett smiled lightly
38:41York, there's a gift I gave you 7 years ago at our anniversary restaurant
38:47Go get it
38:48The 30 billion is returned to you
38:50From now on, we're even
38:52Wearing her wedding dress
38:53Scarlett walked away
38:54York rushed to the restaurant
38:56The manager handed him a frozen box
38:58This is the gift Miss Scarlett said to give you
39:00York's trembling hands opened the box
39:02Inside was a bloodied mess
39:04Two tiny unrecognizable figures
39:06York's heart shattered as he cried out in agony
39:09In that moment he finally understood why Scarlett could never forgive him
39:13Back at the wedding
39:14Sean took Scarlett's hand
39:16The wedding was a spectacle
39:17On their wedding night
39:18Scarlett received the news that York had donated the 30 billion to a children's foundation
39:23She glanced at Sean
39:25Then she kissed his brow
39:26Mmm, husband
39:27At the sound of that word
39:29Sean kissed her lips
39:30Scarlett, no matter how York refuses to let go
39:33I will never let go of your hand
39:35Scarlett smiled
39:36I'll learn to love you
39:37That night
39:38York jumped from the original Lancaster building
39:40The next day, the city was filled with news of his suicide
39:44Scarlett couldn't bring herself to watch
39:46Later it was Sean who handled the funeral arrangements
39:48When York died, he was holding a single bright red rose
39:52In Scarlett's mind, a memory from when she was 15 resurfaced
39:56Brother York, what kind of flower do you think I resemble?
39:58The boy had smiled, pointing at a potted rose
40:01Scarlett, you're a red rose
40:03Fragile yet prickly
40:04Only I can take care of you
40:05Scarlett looked at the rose Sean had placed this morning
40:08Her tears fell like rain
