02:16really
02:17just that pathetic

02:35noel kills herself working and you sit back and count the cash is there a sweeter deal than this in
02:40the whole world she still makes money too slowly it's enough for us to live like kings for the rest
02:46of our lives from now on things are only going to get better so this was it all along jocelyn
02:51had
02:51bonded with some so-called system every dollar i killed myself got multiplied to earn got multiplied
02:5810 and deposited straight into her account my health deteriorated more and more from the work
03:04i slept less than four hours a night i pushed myself to my absolute limit in the end my parents
03:12had
03:13to bury their own child but jocelyn she thrived trampling over my corpse what did i do to deserve this
03:21i won't accept this
03:29this is my bedroom what's going on wasn't i dead noel stop sleeping and get up can you have a
03:38little
03:38ambition for once jocelyn sits at home and makes money you've got no skills at all and here you are
03:43snoring away i could have just come sweet with you as i'm a familiar i re-ration what are you
03:49spacing
03:50out for if you don't get to work and make money i'm divorcing you oh you you hit me
04:00nolis i'm divorcing you fine let's get a divorce why do you have to take it so seriously
04:07i just want you to work as hard as jocelyn does i lost my job recently you're all we've got
04:15i'm going to sleep now don't bother me don't you have an important client meeting this morning if
04:20you don't leave now you're going to be late in my last life i got into that accident on my
04:24way to
04:25meet that exact client i'd been running on fumes for two months straight pushing myself to the brink
04:30of exhaustion but ethan didn't want me to rest every time i stopped he'd tear into me then let him
04:36wait or better yet let jocelyn go meet him isn't she supposed to be better than me at everything
04:44he's been comparing me to jocelyn ever since our first year of dating he'd humiliate me in front of
04:49other people all the time over the years he conditioned me to become insecure and weak he had
04:55me completely under his thumb because of that i was always guilty around him always feeling like i
05:00hadn't given him a better life i should have seen it a long time ago he probably got together
05:05with jocelyn ages ago noel this is not the time to be stubborn what about the client he specifically
05:11asked for you if you don't show up isn't that standing him up are you going or not i'm not
05:15going since you want money so badly you go since jocelyn's got that system why should i bother working
05:23isn't jocelyn's so good at making money let's see how much she makes without me
05:32i slept all the way until the afternoon
05:39in my last life ethan said this was marital property and wouldn't let me send any money to
05:44my family in this life not a single cent i earned with my life is staying with him
05:55noel what did you do this afternoon why is there a million dollars missing from our joint account
05:59transfer it back right now ethan don't be so loud let's talk nicely noel don't mind him he's just
06:05anxious jocelyn every time i argue with my husband you just happen to be there why noel ethan told me
06:12about it he was upset and came to me for advice that's how i found out oh so the moment
06:16you noticed
06:17the money was missing instead of asking me first you went straight to her i who i go to for
06:22advice
06:22is my business don't play games with me who did you transfer that million to if you don't tell me
06:26right now i transferred it to my parents got a problem with that what gives you the right to
06:31transfer it without telling me half of that money is mine exactly noel doing something like that is
06:37bound to make him suspicious my husband and i are arguing since when is this any of your business
06:42noel how dare you talk to her like that jocelyn is just trying to help us
06:46don't be so ungrateful forget it forget it i'm done talking you two deal with your own marriage
06:51i just didn't want to see money come between you don't go this isn't your fault wow what a
06:57performance anyone watching would think you two are a married couple
07:05you you dare to push me since she's so great why don't you marry her i think jocelyn likes you
07:11well
07:11enough you two should get together leave me out of it how can you think that about your own husband
07:15we have a pure friendship only someone as filthy minded as you sees fill in everything
07:20whatever you say now get out of my way
07:26let's go
07:29noel don't be mad we really are innocent ethan is just upset right now let me go talk some sense
07:35into
07:35him for you but that million dollars you really should transfer it back don't let a little money
07:40like this come between you two
07:45sure go take him out to clear his head return the car whenever you have time
07:50don't worry i'll talk some sense into him
07:52logical speaking jocelyn already have 10 million why does she care so much about that one million of mine
07:58so much she let ethan come make a scene in front me and kept pushing to have it trans back
08:03herself
08:04is that million really that important to her this is my new car i bought the best dash cam i
08:10could find
08:10it records both video and audio from inside the catamen let's see what they're plotting
08:15how could you let her not go to that contract meeting do you have any idea how long i've been
08:20planning this noel has to die that's the only way we get to keep all that money for good
08:24do you understand or not what's your rush noel refused to go herself it's not like i could drag her
08:29there besides what's wrong with letting her live a few more days and make us some more money
08:34greeds to mistakes the system has its pros and its cons if noel transfers there's out a large sum
08:39of money i get penalized 10 times over 10 10 times so if she transferred away a million this time
08:44that means you that's exactly why i'm in such a rush for you to fix this you thought i was
08:48joking
08:48a tenfold penalty that means jocelyn just lost 10 million no wonder transferring out only a million
08:55has thrown them into such chaos so we have to take care of this loose end for good
08:59understand the rest is up to you have i ever let you down just give me some time i'll make
09:05sure
09:05she doesn't come back tonight sweetheart noel isn't home yet how about we these two people
09:13one is the man i'd had a crush on since high school one is my best friend from college i
09:18thought i
09:18finally had a husband who loved me and a best friend who understood me instead they not only
09:23shamelessly betrayed me and slept together but now they want to kill me a second time
09:28i want nothing more than to catch them in the act right now and expose everything but i can't blow
09:32my cover yet if i divorce ethan now he'll inevitably walk away with half my assets that's absolutely not
09:37happening besides i also want to know what exactly their scheme is all these years of marriage i bent
09:46over backward for ethan terrified he would get tired of me and leave even then it was never enough
09:51for him he still humiliated me in public jaceline wanted me dead and ethan handed her the knife
09:56how could i ever expect any real love from someone like that
10:02i stuck it out with her for years living poor just for you you'd better make it up to me
10:08aren't you afraid noel's ghost will see might give her sleepless nights
10:15and why should i be afraid of her when she was alive she was just my little puppy
10:20next life i'll crook my finger and she'll come crawling right back but i'm not the same noel
10:25from my last life what they owed me then i'm going to take back every last bit in this life
10:34honey we're having a class reunion tonight at rose bar you want to come everyone says they miss you

10:43i was sleeping you've already disturbed me baby are you still mad about me bursting into your office

30:09luke and i made our relationship official
30:12it made me feel what true love is all over again
30:16turns out loving someone means running towards each other
30:20when i was racking my brain to find the perfect gift for him
30:23he was doing the same for me
30:25when i was with ethan he only ever gave me a brief grudgeoning kiss when i handed him a gift
30:30and i used to be so moved by that kiss i'd fall apart
30:34but with luke
30:35hugs and kisses are everyday things
30:37they're not favors
30:38because he genuinely loves me
