Short filmTranscript
00:00I thought I was the only exception. My husband was famous for keeping women at
00:03arm's length. I thought I was the only exception, until his secretary sent me a
00:07video at 2 a.m. just days before I gave birth. In the video, my husband and his
00:12secretary fucked all night long. She stared straight into the camera, smirking.
00:17He says you never make him sound like this. I was nine months pregnant. Blood was
00:23soaking through my clothes. I called him over and over, but he ignored every
00:27single call. On the last one, he finally picked up. Club music blared in the
00:32background. Your due date is next week. Stop being so dramatic. Do you have any
00:39idea how hard I work out here? If you can't handle it, then maybe we should
00:43just get divorced. I said nothing. I left the divorce papers where he'd sign them
00:47without looking. Then I took what was left of my baby and vanished from his
00:51world. Six years later, I saw him again at a hospital. I was there with my
00:56husband's mother. He was parading around with Ivy on his arm, newly pregnant. Then
01:01he saw my twins and got that same greedy look in his eyes. I'll let the past go.
01:09Ivy is moving in. You can come back and raise her baby too. She's a career woman.
01:16His eyes swept over me with contempt, unlike you. All you ever did was stay home and enjoy
01:22an easy life. You're already raising two kids. What's one more? Yet there he was.
01:27Jake Harrington. Wow. You're actually back. Jake said you were probably dead somewhere.
01:36I was joking. Honestly, thank God you're back. Jake's been impossible without you.
01:42Force buses. We went through so many housekeepers. None of them could get anything right. I tried to help,
01:50but Jake wouldn't let me. Said I'd ruin my hands. It'll be so nice having someone who
01:58actually knows how to run a home. I let the silence stretch, letting her finish her pathetic
02:02little performance. Eight years ago, I graduated top of my class with a six-figure job offer on the
02:08table. Jake convinced me to turn it down. Said he'd take care of me forever. Then one day I found
02:14Ivy crying outside a grocery store. The woman who raised her had just thrown her out with nothing but
02:19the clothes on her back. No degree, no job, nowhere to go. I took her in, got her a job
02:26at Jake's firm
02:26as the secretary. She sobbed and thanked me and swore she'd never forget what I did for her.
02:32She didn't forget. She paid me back with a video of her and my husband going at it all night
02:38long.
02:38Jake waved a hand in front of my face.
02:42Stella Monroe, you spacing out? Tell your mom to clean herself up and take the kids home. You're
02:48making a scene. I almost felt sorry for him. He had no idea who he was talking to. He thought
02:53my
02:54mother-in-law was my mom. He looked at my kids like they were his. While I was bleeding out
02:59alone,
02:59I called him over and over. He never picked up. Our baby died the night he was with his secretary
03:05all night long. And now he was standing here, acting like he was doing me a favor. I met his
03:11arrogant gaze head on. Don't flatter yourself. They aren't yours. Don't flatter yourself. They
03:17aren't yours. Oh my god, please don't be mad at him. He literally took me in out of nowhere. I
03:21had
03:21nowhere else to go. My baby doesn't need anything. Seriously, just a safe place. They deserve stability.
03:29You know, a real home. Not this. Exactly. All my kids will be treated the same. I'll make sure
03:36of that. What is wrong with you? She's pregnant. You really want to do this right now? If anything
03:42happens to that baby, I'll come after you. Stella, what the hell is going on? Who are these
03:47people? Just ignore them. Let's go. Don't engage. They're not all there. Not all there? You're
03:54calling me crazy? Get your hands off my daughter. Don't flatter yourself. A bitter lump formed in my
04:01chest. Oh my god, please. Growing up, my parents made it clear I was on my own, which is exactly
04:06why
04:06I was so easy to fool back then. But Vivian meant it every single time she said it. To her,
04:12I wasn't
04:12the daughter-in-law. I was just hers. I know exactly what this is. She popped out twins and now
04:18you're
04:19here for a payday. Here's a hundred bucks. Take it and get lost. Say that again. I dare
04:31you. Oh my god, someone call security. Get this homeless woman away from us. I looked at Vivian,
04:41head-to-toe Balenciaga, the deliberately trashed kind that costs more than most people's rent.
04:45She looked like someone who burned money for fun. Jake and Ivy had absolutely no idea.
04:51Jake was too scared to go after Vivian again. Stella, you want to fix this? Slap yourself.
04:56Right now, in front of everyone. Do that, and I'll think about letting those kids carry my last name.
05:02We've been over this. Those children are not yours. Ivy sighed like I was a lost cause. He's literally
05:09handing you a lifeline and you're throwing it back in his face. You'd really rather drag them around
05:14alone than give them a home. Vivian rolled up her sleeves. I grabbed her arm. My husband wasn't back
05:21yet. I had no idea how far Jake would take this, and I was not about to find out with
05:26my kids standing
05:26right there. I got everyone moving. Jake was still running his mouth behind us. I stopped listening.
05:33My phone rang. It was my husband's assistant.
05:39Mrs. Cole, sorry to interrupt. Mr. Cole's still in his meeting, but the cardiologist is confirmed
05:44for this afternoon. He'll head straight over once he's done. Tell him we're fine. No need to rush
05:48back. I'll pass that along. Fair warning though, once it hits 24 hours, he gets difficult. At that
05:55point, there's really nothing I can do. Good luck with that. Yes, Mrs. Cole. The man was impossible when
06:02we were apart for more than five minutes. I hung up and steered everyone toward Dr. Cain's office.
06:08Vivian's heart had been acting up lately. My husband had spent weeks tracking down the best
06:13cardiologist in the country for her. We were almost at the door when I stopped. Jake was already there,
06:19laughing with the hospital director like he ran the place. He actually believed I had tracked him to
06:24the hospital just to beg him for money. Thought you had too much pride to crawl back. Who is this?
06:30My wife, the one who ran off six years ago. Vivian leaned in close to my ear. So this is
06:36him.
06:37Honestly, honey, you really did dodge a bullet.
06:43I have a scheduled appointment with Dr. Cain. I'm sorry, but Dr. Cain only has one VIP book today.
06:49You need to leave. We are that booking. I pulled up the confirmation email on my phone.
06:57Anyone can fake a screenshot. Look at them. You think they can afford this floor? She's creative.
07:02I will give her that. But Dr. Cain's only appointment today was booked by Reed Cole.
07:07Jake's eyes lit up at that name. Thanks for the tip. If I land a deal with him, I owe
07:12you big time.
07:15It's all negotiable. I'm Reed Cole's wife. This is his mother. Step aside.
07:23You? Married to Reed Cole? I'm not even dead yet. And you're already out here trying to scam a
07:29billionaire? I'm Reed Cole's mother. This is my son's wife. Get out of our way.
07:35Listen to me, you crazy old bat. If you want to dig through the trash, go out to the alley.
07:40This is a hospital. Since when do you rank patients by their clothes?
07:45This is a private VIP wing. The charity board is three blocks down. Don't let the door hit you.
07:51Right then, Ivy strolled out of her ultrasound appointment. She immediately pinched her nose.
07:56God, you guys are like cockroaches. Can't you take a hint? And what is that smell? It smells like a
08:03nursing home. Jake immediately pulled her against his chest, wrapping a protective arm around her.
08:08Security! Escort them out. Now!
08:12Three heavy guards closed in on us. They grabbed our arms hard. I threw my body over Vivian. I could
08:19not let the stress trigger her heart condition. She lifted her foot and kicked my four-year-old son
08:23squarely in the chest. She flew backward and slammed into the wall.
08:28Since, since you clearly don't teach your little brats any manners, I will do it for you!
08:35While my back was turned to shield my crying kids, Jake struck. He slapped Vivian across the face.
08:42I just touched a homeless person. I need to sanitize my hands.
08:46A thin line of bright red blood ran down her chin. I tried to lunge at them, but my kids
08:51were
08:51clean to my legs.
08:52Stella, get back! Protect the kids!
08:55Jake, stop! She has a heart condition! Let her go!
08:58Do you know what Reed Cole would do if he caught you pretending to be his wife?
09:02He would erase you from existence.
09:06You want me to spare the old lady? Fine. Start hitting yourself until I say stop.
09:12Do not even think about it, you little psycho!
09:14I let go of my kids and threw my body over hers. His heavy shoes slammed into my ribs.
09:20Stella, what the hell are you doing? Don't take hits for me!
09:23I wasn't going to let him hurt you.
09:26Aw, look at you, trying to save everybody. Too bad you can't.
09:32I hate noisy brats.
09:34She dug the sharp heel of her shoe into his little pillow.
09:38Shut up! My daughter was too terrified to speak.
09:41Jake! They are Reed Cole's family! I swear to God, let them go!
09:47You actually believe your own lies now.
09:52I already gave you the deal. You slap yourself until I'm satisfied.
09:57Or I keep going.
09:59I stared at him like I'd never seen him before.
10:02He raised his hand toward Vivian again. I raised my hand and slapped my own face as hard as I
10:07could.
10:07Then I saw Ivy lifting her shoe to stomp on my son again. I snapped.
10:12I shoved Ivy away with everything I had. She stumbled and fell hard onto the floor.
10:18Jake! My stomach hurts! She is trying to kill our baby!
10:22You toxic bitch!
10:24You know what, Stella? I changed my mind.
10:27Just slapping yourself is way too easy for someone as vicious as you.
10:31I remember you can't even sit through a horror movie. Severe cloudophobia, right?
10:37Drag her down to the hospital morgue for a little fun. I guarantee she will love it.
10:43No! No! Let her go!
10:45Jake grabbed me and ripped me away from my family. My son dragged his sister behind him and screamed for
10:51me.
10:51Vivian fought the guards with everything she had left, crying as she watched them drag me away.
10:56The heavy doors of the morgue loomed at the end of the hall. The air was already turning freezing cold.
11:01My vision started to blur. The panic was choking me. And then, through the ringing in my ears,
11:07I thought I heard a voice. Familiar. Breathless. Desperate.
11:15Stella, I'm here. I made it back.
11:22I was already on edge. 20 hours. 3 minutes. That was exactly how long it had been since I last
11:31saw my wife.
11:32Mrs. Cole explicitly said no buying another-
11:35Shut up. Everyone knew better than to cross me when I got like this.
11:39Only Stella could talk me down. I gripped Noah's hand tightly.
11:43My five-year-old son had flown back from the business trip with me.
11:46I couldn't wait another second. Stella, I'm here. I made it back.
11:50Mr. Cole, what an absolute honor. Please come rest in my private office while Dr. Kane prepared.
11:56Mr. Cole, an honor. I'm Jake from Apex Corp. I tried scheduling a meeting.
12:00She stared hungrily at my custom suit, looking me up and down.
12:04Where is Mr. Cole's wife? And his mother?
12:07Who?
12:09Then his eyes dropped to Noah, standing by my side. I watched the man's heart practically stop.
12:14My oldest son looked exactly like the little boy they had just manhandled downstairs.
12:20Jake, that woman we just locked up. She's still your wife, right? Tell me you two aren't actually
12:24divorced. He actually thought a billionaire like me would never want his leftovers. He thought my
12:29mother was just some- Did you see an older woman? My boss's wife and two little kids?
12:34A sick gray pallor washed over the director's face. Jake and the pregnant woman went dead pale. Suddenly,
12:40a furious shout echoed down the hallway. Get back here, you little brat! I'm going to kill you!
12:45I whipped around. A tiny four-year-old girl was sprinting down the hallway.
12:51Seeing his little sister hit the floor, my oldest son let out an ear-piercing scream.
13:00I saw red. I didn't even think. I lunged forward and kicked the guard so hard in the chest I
13:06felt
13:06his ribs snap. He hit the floor, gasping for air. Before he could even sit up, the hospital director
13:15kicked him back down. I ignored them. I dropped to my knees and gathered my baby girl into my arms.
13:24Her tiny back was covered in dark, ugly bruises. My assistant Ryan knew that look. Ryan raised a hand.
13:32Dozens of my private security contractors flooded the hallway. Tear this place apart, tard.
13:37Less than ten minutes later, they found my mother and my son, Sam.
13:44Sam was covered in bruises too. My mother clutched him and screamed at me.
13:49It took too damn long! Stella is in the morgue! Go!
13:53Jake started shaking violently. He couldn't speak.
13:56You told me she was still your wife! You swore to me you weren't divorced! You just made me lock
14:03Reed Cole's wife in a morgue! What the hell is wrong with you?!
14:07She was insanely jealous of my wife. She's lying to you, Mr. Cole! She's a scammer! She's still
14:13married to Jake! Lock down the building. Nobody leaves. I turned and walked away without a backward
14:18glance. Behind me, the hallway erupted into absolute chaos. Jake and the director dropped to their knees,
14:25sobbing and screaming for mercy as my guards closed in. I was curled in a corner, shivering violently.
14:34Then, the heavy doors crashed over. Stella! It's me. It's your husband.
14:41I've got you. I'm getting you out of here. He carried me out into the blinding light of the hallway.
14:48Reed, the babies! Vivian! You have to save them!
14:53They're safe. They're safe. I have them. It's over.
14:58But as I looked up, I saw it. A slow, dark smile spreading across my husband's face.
15:04Reed, don't. They aren't worth it. Nobody touches my family. They made their choice,
15:09Stella. Now, I'm going to ruin them. Stella is my wife! Mr. Cole, she's scamming you! We never got a
15:18divorce!
15:19We divorced six years ago, Jake. Jake stared at the screen in absolute disbelief.
15:26No, that's impossible. I never agreed to this. You were too good of a free...
15:31Too good of a free maid? Why would you ever let that go, right?
15:38Jake's mouth opened, but no sound came out. Suddenly, Vivian lunged forward.
15:43You piece of trash! You don't get to speak to my daughter!
15:47Jake tried to push her off, but he looked up and saw dozens of Reed's bodyguards staring him down.
15:52He didn't dare move a muscle.
15:55Mrs. Cole, listen to me. Stella is playing you. She has kids with Jake.
15:59She's making your son raise another man's kids. She's a psycho! Have her arrested! Throw her in jail!
16:04Don't you ever call me Mrs. Cole. You're just a cheap homewrecker bragging about stealing,
16:08killing someone else's trash. It's pathetic. Mr. Cole!
16:12She looked past Vivian, straight at my husband. Mr. Cole, if you want, I'll get rid of it. I can
16:17be yours.
16:19She smiled seductively. If you're willing to take Stella, then surely I'm younger. I'm prettier.
16:25Reed brought his heavy dress shoe down directly onto Ivy's foot.
16:29I heard this is how you like to treat my son.
16:31Sweat poured down Ivy's face. Mr. Cole, please.
16:36She gasped, still trying to play the seductress. I can make you very happy, Mr. Cole.
16:40Just give me one night. Reed suddenly laughed. He lifted his foot.
16:44Reed didn't look at her. He turned to Jake.
16:47So this is the woman you were screwing all night long while your wife was going into labor?
16:52How do you know about that?
16:57I didn't just know. I saw the photos she sent Stella. You think you deserve children, Jake?
17:03You think you deserve a legacy?
17:06Your child died the same night you spent all night in bed with her.
17:10Jake looked like he had been shot. He slowly turned his head toward Ivy.
17:15It was you. You sent those photos to Stella? She was nine months pregnant. How could you?
17:22Ivy let out a vicious, grating cackle.
17:25Why shouldn't I? You had the balls to sleep with me, but I'm the bad guy for pressing send?
17:30Don't you dare play the victim, Jake. You're the one who left her alone when she was nine months pregnant.
17:37You're the one who told me she was nothing but a free maid.
17:40When you were in my bed, you literally told me you hoped she would drop dead in the street so
17:44you'd be free.
17:46So tell me, Jake, who's the real piece of trash here?
17:50I only said that because-
17:51Jake saw where Reed was looking. He instantly dropped to his knees.
17:56Mr. Cole, I'm begging you. Leave her alone. She's pregnant. Take it out on me.
18:02I actually sighed out loud. He really did care about her.
18:07Save your breath, Jake.
18:11Ivy isn't even pregnant.
18:15You're lying! I went to the ultrasounds with her! It's real!
18:20A dry, pitying laugh escaped me.
18:24Do you know why Ivy was living on the streets before I took pity on her, Jake?
18:28Do you know why I gave her a job as your secretary?
18:30She was kicked out by her foster mother because she seduced her foster father and got pregnant.
18:35She had an abortion at a low-cost clinic when she was young.
18:37There were complications and it left her with serious fertility issues.
18:40I didn't cause anything. I just called her buff.
18:42Jake looked like the floor had just vanished beneath his feet.
18:45Ivy, tell me she's lying. You are pregnant, right?
18:51You actually looked into my past?
18:53Of course I did. I needed leverage for the divorce.
18:55Even though Jake was too arrogant to read the papers before signing them.
18:59You are completely sickening. Strip her bank accounts.
19:02Blacklist her everywhere. Throw her on the streets where she belongs.
19:05The guards dragged her away in less than a minute.
19:08Then Reed's dark eyes locked onto Jake.
19:11Stella! I'm sorry. I was brainwashed. I never wanted to lose you.
19:16Before I could even speak, Reed delivered a brutal kick straight to Jake's chest.
19:20Jake was thrown backward, crashing hard onto the hospital tiles a few feet away.
19:24Reed stepped up, pressing his heavy shoe firmly against Jake's chest.
19:28Give me one reason not to end you.
19:30Ryan and I immediately grabbed Reed's arms, desperately trying to pull him back.
19:33Reed was blinded by rage. If we didn't stop him,
19:36he was going to beat Jake half to death right there on the hospital floor.
19:39And a piece of trash like Jake just wasn't worth the mess.
19:42They love looking down on poor people, Reed. Let them see how it feels to be nothing.
19:46Reed smirked. He looked at Ryan and nodded.
19:50The next morning, the hospital director lost his medical license.
19:53The entire hospital was permanently shut down.
19:56Reed bought Jake's company for pennies, just to liquidate it and fire everyone.
20:00Jake went bankrupt overnight, left with a mountain of debt he could never repay.
20:04He ended up living in a homeless shelter.
20:05He took his anger out on Ivy until she finally ran off with a drug addict.
20:10A month later, Vivian successfully recovered from her heart surgery.
20:14Please. I checked with a lawyer. That divorce doesn't count.
20:18Come back to me. You need me, Stella. Let's remarry.
20:21Take half his money and come back to me. We'll have our own kids.
20:25He actually tried to grab my hand.
20:27Touch my wife and you lose that hand.
20:30Every man cheats. Don't act like you're different. And if you don't, then what, you can't?
20:37No woman gets near me except my mother and my wife.
20:40He glanced at our three kids laughing and playing with Ryan nearby.
20:43I'm doing just fine. I could have had that. I could have had a family.
20:48You did. But you threw your pregnant wife away for a fake belly.
20:51Completely losing his mind. Suddenly, he stood up and sprinted blindly into the busy street.
20:56Tires screeched. A loud crash echoed through the air.
20:59Ryan instantly turned around, shielding the children's eyes.
21:02Reed pulled me against his chest.
21:04That's on him.
21:06It was finally over.
21:08Reed kissed the top of my head, a teasing smile on his lips.
21:11Then, his large hand slid down to the small of my back, pulling my hips flush against his.
21:16Since he insulted my stamina, I guess I'll just have to keep you awake all night to prove him wrong.
21:21The sunlight was warm, but my cheeks instantly flushed.
21:24My breath hitched as he tilted my chin up.
21:26Words weren't necessary anymore.
21:27I simply buried my burning face against his chest, finally letting myself breathe.
