Transcript
00:00:01My name was Cadence Chase. In the shadows, I was the kingdom's first ghost healer, and no one had ever
00:00:09seen my true face.
00:00:11In public, I was the wife of Franklin, commander of the Holy Knights, but my husband had never been kind
00:00:17to me.
00:00:17Your jealousy is sick. You have to be insane to push a woman who can't swim into the deep end.
00:00:22You don't know. Actually, I'm also afraid of water.
00:00:27You wear the sacred pring baptism medal around your neck. How could someone blessed by holy water be afraid of
00:00:34it? Stop playing the victim with me!
00:00:41Don't be mad at her, Franklin. It's not Cadence's fault. I just... I slipped.
00:00:47If you ever lay a hand on Isabelle again, I will initiate divorce proceedings before you can blink, and the
00:00:53prenup.
00:00:54The second I sign those papers, Chase's family loses all protection from my family.
00:01:01Three years of silence. All I got in return was him holding another woman in his arms.
00:01:08Have the medical team meet us in the guest suite.
00:01:27Prepare the papers. I want a divorce.
00:01:35I had spent three years thinking I could forget that river. I was wrong.
00:01:59I had spent three years thinking I could forget that river. I was wrong.
00:02:07Franklin, my head is spinning so badly.
00:02:10I'm coming right now.
00:02:13Every time he walked away, it felt like being cut with a dull knife.
00:02:18But not this time. I wouldn't let him hurt me anymore.
00:02:29I'm coming right now.
00:02:30What kind of game are you playing now?
00:02:33I am leaving with nothing. I just want to terminate this disgusting arrangement immediately.
00:02:38If you walk out that door, I will cut off all funding to the Chase family by tomorrow noon.
00:02:44What happens to the Chase family is none of your concern.
00:02:49You are out of your mind. If you walk out of this house, don't you ever think about crawling back.
00:03:00Franklin had once told the entire high society that this sculpture symbolized our marriage, pure and unbreakable.
00:03:28Have the formal divorce agreement on Franklin Muller's desk by 8 a.m.
00:03:33No mediation.
00:03:40Boss, the Chase manor has been cleared. No one will track your movements.
00:03:44Do you need the medical team on standby for the water exposure?
00:03:48No. Drive straight to the Moonshadow Atelier.
00:03:53I needed someone. Someone who could permanently erase the humiliating scar burning on my back.
00:04:01What happened? Your wife has left, sir.
00:04:21Look who finally decided to break out of the Golden Cage.
00:04:25Jet Marlant was the most skilled alchemetic tattooist in the kingdom.
00:04:29He was also one of my most trusted informants in the Shadow Courier.
00:04:37Who did this?
00:04:38The price of a stupid mistake. Erase it.
00:04:42Covering scar tissue this deep, the pain is going to be ten times worse.
00:04:46Pain is exactly what I need right now.
00:04:49With every drag of the needle, the memory of that frozen river, that rusted blade, that darkness, was being squeezed
00:04:56out of my flesh.
00:05:03Do you want me to put the word out? Tell the Underground you're back?
00:05:08Keep it quiet.
00:05:09Keep it quiet. I have a game to play first.
00:05:17Sir, this just arrived via courier from Elena Rostovov's firm.
00:05:22It's the formal petition for divorce.
00:05:26Emerging from the cocoon was always painful.
00:05:28But from now on, I would fly for myself.
00:05:35Julian was one of Franklin's closest friends.
00:05:39He was reckless, but he had the instincts of a beast.
00:05:43You look like a gambler who just lost his whole estate.
00:05:46How did that little pool drama end last night?
00:05:49I threw that vicious woman out.
00:05:52Do you mean Cadence?
00:05:53She shoved Isabel into the water, got caught red-handed, and then tried to act like the victim.
00:05:58Now she's vanished and filing for divorce.
00:06:00She's just trying to get me to give in.
00:06:01For three years, all she's wanted is for me to turn around and look at her.
00:06:05She's playing hard to get, but she picked the wrong man.
00:06:12I was the one who jumped into the pool last night.
00:06:14I pulled Cadence out.
00:06:16What are you talking about?
00:06:17Isabel was the one drowning.
00:06:19Isabel was splashing around in the shallow end.
00:06:21Cadence sank straight to the bottom.
00:06:24That wasn't an act.
00:06:25She is absolutely terrified of the water.
00:06:28She wears the Sacred Pring Baptism model around her neck.
00:06:31How could someone blessed by holy water be afraid of it?
00:06:34She's just a great actress.
00:06:35That's odd.
00:06:36But here's what really confuses me.
00:06:39Why does Cadence mimic Isabel's aquaphobia?
00:06:42Everyone knows Isabel developed it after she pulled you from the sighing river four years ago.
00:06:48Why aren't you resting at home?
00:06:49For the first time, doubt about Isabel crapped into his mind.
00:06:53But what he didn't realize was that the very metal he used to humiliate me
00:06:57was the chain that kept him blind to the truth.
00:07:24The grand banquet for my 80th birthday is this weekend.
00:07:28Every old money family in the kingdom will be there.
00:07:31You will arrive on time, and Cadence will be on your arm.
00:07:35Cadence is indisposed at the moment.
00:07:38I don't care.
00:07:39Don't let Isabel ruin this family's name.
00:07:41Cadence is the only one who belongs beside you.
00:07:46Where is my wife?
00:07:48Sir, we can't find her.
00:07:49The moment she left the estate, every section of crystal on her roof was wiped
00:07:53by some master shadow mage.
00:07:55It's like she vanished into thin air.
00:07:58Cadence, wherever you are hiding, I will drag you out.
00:08:01What he didn't know was that my true identity was far more dangerous than he could ever imagine.
00:08:11Kenzie Garner was my close friend.
00:08:13A wealthy heiress who was never afraid of getting into trouble and willing to stick with me.
00:08:23The scapting crystals picked up no sign of her.
00:08:26We can only hope someone has seen her.
00:08:29Cadence would never step foot in a place like...
00:08:33In that moment, I decided to show him exactly what he had lost.
00:08:38Mrs. Muller, out for a little fun by yourself?
00:08:42There is no Mrs. Muller.
00:08:46I finally dumped that jerk.
00:08:50Not now.
00:08:52Everyone's watching.
00:08:54To freedom!
00:08:55To leaving that bastard behind!
00:08:58To freedom.
00:09:13Why don't we take this up to a private suite?
00:09:23Are you trying to piss me off?
00:09:25Throwing yourself at garbage like Hunter?
00:09:28At least Hunter knows how to please a woman.
00:09:30Not like you.
00:09:32Worshipping some pathetic liar.
00:09:35Enough of this tantrum.
00:09:37Come home.
00:09:37Or I will crush the Chase family into dust.
00:09:41Dream on.
00:09:48Don't go.
00:09:50He's completely unhinged.
00:09:53Let me go!
00:09:58This is my wife.
00:09:59Anyone who looks at her again will lose their eyes.
00:10:13What the hell is wrong with you?
00:10:15Why are you doing this?
00:10:17Why are you doing this?
00:10:17Cutting your hypocritical family out of my life is absolutely the right decision.
00:10:22For the first time in three years, I can breathe fresh air.
00:10:25It's called a rebirth!
00:10:27You don't get a rebirth unless I allow it.
00:10:34Don't you ever kiss me with the same mouth you use on that liar.
00:10:38You make me sick.
00:10:40Stay away from me, ex-husband.
00:10:41Or I will ruin you.
00:10:50Boss, you're bleeding out.
00:10:51Patch it in the carriage.
00:10:52We're done here.
00:10:54He stood there, his lips trembling, but no words came.
00:10:57Maybe he finally understood that I no longer belonged to him.
00:11:01But pride got in the way.
00:11:02He just couldn't bring himself to plea.
00:11:14Oddly, my heart didn't even skip a beat.
00:11:21Dad.
00:11:22The Royal Charity Gala is tonight at the palace.
00:11:24Every major house will be there.
00:11:26Go.
00:11:27Not to prove anything to them, but to remind yourself that you never truly lost who you are.
00:11:47The weak, pathetic Mrs. Muller was dead.
00:11:59This was my signature tool as the kingdom's first healer.
00:12:02In the underground black market, they called me, the ghost healer, Franklin and that scheming
00:12:08bitch would also be there tonight.
00:12:11But I wasn't the prey anymore.
00:12:13I would walk into that ballroom with a scalpel, ready to cut the rot out of their perfect little
00:12:18world.
00:12:40Cadence.
00:12:47Cadence.
00:12:49You finally took off the nun's habit.
00:12:51Welcome back to the land of the living, my queen.
00:12:57Behave yourself tonight.
00:12:59I have actual work to do.
00:13:27Is this why you couldn't wait to file the divorce?
00:13:29To climb into another man's bed?
00:13:41None of your business.
00:13:49Cadence, where did you find this... new friend?
00:13:52You really shouldn't bring strangers to such an exclusive event.
00:13:56Your wealth couldn't buy you a throne in Lumina.
00:13:59Jean-Luc, keep your underground games to yourself.
00:14:02What kind of leverage did she use to get you to play her guard?
00:14:06Mr. Muller, I have enough loose change in my pockets to buy out three of your overseas trading
00:14:11fleets before breakfast.
00:14:15Isabel is not just my date tonight.
00:14:17She is the one I'll protect for the rest of my life.
00:14:21She will be the next Mrs. Muller.
00:14:24Congratulations.
00:14:26Birds of a feather flock together.
00:14:29He thought announcing his engagement would break me.
00:14:32What he didn't know was that I had already buried everything about him at the bottom of
00:14:36the Signing River.
00:14:46The rotation speed on this cranial drill is too high.
00:14:49The sanctified probe will burn the nerve before you even reach the lesion.
00:14:57Walter, a wealthy merchant, was lying on the floor, struggling to breathe.
00:15:02His business partner, Quentin Shaw, was panicking, completely at a loss.
00:15:17I know a bit of healing.
00:15:19Let me help.
00:15:21Stop.
00:15:22He is not in cardiac arrest.
00:15:24Chest compressions will kill him.
00:15:26Shut your mouth!
00:15:27You're just a new money upstart who schemed her way into the Muller family.
00:15:32Get out of the way!
00:15:37Cadence, this is not the time for your theatrics.
00:15:39Let the professionals handle it.
00:15:41In that moment, I finally realized something.
00:15:44He would rather believe in actresses' lies than trust his own wife.
00:15:53He has died.
00:16:03Dad!
00:16:06Who did this?
00:16:08She didn't...
00:16:10She broke his ribs.
00:16:14I didn't know!
00:16:16I was just trying to help!
00:16:19Back off, Leland.
00:16:21Isabelle is under my protection.
00:16:27The airway is completely locked.
00:16:29I cannot cast the breath-opening spell.
00:16:32Then cut his throat!
00:16:33I can't!
00:16:35No sanctified field, no alchemical tools.
00:16:38A blind cut could sever his artery.
00:16:39He'll bleed out.
00:16:40He has less than two minutes.
00:16:46If you don't want him to die, get the hell out of my way.
00:16:49Hey.
00:16:55In this moment, I shed my disguise.
00:16:57I was not Mrs. Muller.
00:16:59I was not a noble lady.
00:17:01I was the ghost healer.
00:17:09Take one more step, and his brain death is on your hands.
00:17:35He stood there watching me.
00:17:37He finally saw what I could truly do, but it was far too late.
00:17:47Save him.
00:17:49Please, you have to save him.
00:17:59Vitals are stabilizing.
00:18:01He's out of danger.
00:18:04Who did this?
00:18:06Which attending physician is in this room?
00:18:11Healer!
00:18:13She doesn't even have a physician's medallion.
00:18:15She just hacked into his neck with a skeppel.
00:18:17Are you insane?
00:18:18No sanctified field, no scumming crystals, no alchemical tools.
00:18:22Finding the psych-thyreite muscle in under 60 seconds?
00:18:25This is true skill.
00:18:27The incision bypassed the artery perfectly.
00:18:29The depth control is flawless.
00:18:31Though I have 30 years of experience, I would not have dared to make that blind cut.
00:18:37Madam, if it weren't for your textbook execution, Mr. Kendrick would be in a body bag right now.
00:18:55Who performed chest pressures on him?
00:18:57Three ribs shattered.
00:18:58One shard is a hair's brink from piercing his lung.
00:19:01The person nearly killed him before he even suffocated.
00:19:06The Perez family will pay for this.
00:19:09I will destroy you!
00:19:21Please, we would be honored to have you guest lecture at the Royal Healers Hall.
00:19:26I saved him out of mercy, not for reward.
00:19:28If I have the time, my assistant might reach out.
00:19:31They finally saw me, but this was only my first step.
00:19:38Mr. Shaw.
00:19:45Are you leaving so soon?
00:19:47Just a few minutes ago, you called me a new money upstart who schemed her way into the Mueller family.
00:19:52Mrs. Mueller, Cadence.
00:19:54I was panicked.
00:19:55I didn't know what I was saying.
00:19:57Please forgive my foolishness.
00:19:58Your arrogance almost cost your partner his life.
00:20:03Effective Monday morning, the Chase Medical Guild will permanently sever the supply of all high-grade healing elixirs to the
00:20:08Shaw Hospital Network.
00:20:10Please!
00:20:11I was wrong!
00:20:13I am a fool!
00:20:14Please, don't destroy my hospital.
00:20:19That's for the last three years of you snaring at my father in the Physician's Council.
00:20:27Franklin, let's go.
00:20:29Everyone is looking at us.
00:20:39He was coming after me, but this time, I wouldn't look back.
00:20:50Cadence.
00:20:52Keep your hands off me, or I will break your fingers.
00:20:57I admit it.
00:20:58I've underestimated you.
00:21:00You've proven your value.
00:21:02We're calling off the divorce.
00:21:04Come back to the Mueller estate.
00:21:05I will double your shares in the holding company.
00:21:08I will give you a permanent seat on the family council.
00:21:11Do you honestly think that everything in this world has a price tag attached to it?
00:21:17So why did you save Walter?
00:21:18Trying to win over the Kendricks?
00:21:20Building your own connections before our divorce is finalized?
00:21:23I saved that man because I am a healer.
00:21:26I showed you my ability to prove that you are a blind, arrogant fool.
00:21:33You don't want me back because you love me.
00:21:36You want me back because your fragile male pride is terrified that I don't need you.
00:21:43If I don't sign those papers, you are never getting out of this marriage.
00:21:49Didn't you check your desk this morning?
00:21:52Elena's filing is already on it.
00:22:02If you get in that carriage, I will wipe the Chase family off the map.
00:22:08Try me.
00:22:10He meant what he said.
00:22:12But he forgot one thing.
00:22:14I had nothing left to lose.
00:22:23Do you want me to have my people dispose of this trash for you?
00:22:37Let me go!
00:22:39You are my wife.
00:22:41If you die, you die in the Mueller family graveyard.
00:22:54You are declaring war on every trading fleet on the continent, Mueller!
00:22:58This is Lumina.
00:22:59Even the gods follow my rules here.
00:23:04Put me down, you lunatic!
00:23:16There it was again.
00:23:18He had locked me in a cage once more.
00:23:20But this time, I was the one holding the key.
00:23:25Let go of me, you bastard!
00:23:26You make me sick!
00:23:29Stop fighting me.
00:23:31Or I swear, I will do something in this carriage that we both regret.
00:23:35You are nothing but a coward.
00:23:37You solve everything with force because you can't face losing.
00:23:48Don't touch me.
00:23:50I'm not Isabelle.
00:23:51I don't need you to fuss over a cut.
00:24:04Hold still.
00:24:06You're wasting your time.
00:24:08Your guilt means nothing to me.
00:24:11I'm sorry.
00:24:13Late affection is cheaper than dirt.
00:24:16Hate me all you want.
00:24:17But tomorrow night is my grandmother's 80th birthday.
00:24:19We're having a banquet.
00:24:20I am taking you with me.
00:24:22And I am going to show everyone that you are the only Mrs. Mueller.
00:24:29You will be at my grandmother's birthday banquet tomorrow night.
00:24:33You will stand by my side.
00:24:35The land tax review season is starting.
00:24:38Mueller family credit is volatile.
00:24:40A divorce would wipe a fortune off your house.
00:24:43You don't want a wife.
00:24:44You want a shield for the family council.
00:24:46Protecting this family's legacy is my responsibility.
00:24:49You are my wife.
00:24:51Obeying is your duty.
00:25:08Thirty minutes ago, exactly when Franklin had disappeared from the ballroom after the medical emergency,
00:25:13before he dragged me out of the ballroom.
00:25:18What tantrum is this now?
00:25:19Keep your crocodile tears and your cheap bandages.
00:25:23You make me sick.
00:25:26Don't touch me with the same hands you used to hold her.
00:25:42Cadence!
00:25:49Open the door!
00:25:50It's a lie!
00:25:51I wasn't at the infirmary!
00:25:53He shouted until his voice broke, but behind that door, I could no longer hear him.
00:25:58Or perhaps, I no longer wanted to.
00:26:07My lawyer will file this with the royal court this afternoon.
00:26:12Unilateral, contested divorce.
00:26:14Are you out of your mind?
00:26:16You're declaring war on me during the review season?
00:26:19I don't care about that.
00:26:20I want the divorce.
00:26:22And the black velvet box in your safe.
00:26:25Until the decree is signed, you're not taking a single thing out of this estate.
00:26:28Open the safe.
00:26:30Or by tomorrow morning, the Merchant Guild will receive an anonymous tip about your Ove Seers merchant banks complete with
00:26:37ledgers.
00:26:38Your choice.
00:26:39How could you possibly know about this?
00:26:41These ledgers are known only to my treasurer and two trusted men.
00:26:44It's not as buried as you'd like.
00:26:48Trying to prove your loyalty to Jean-Luc by erase me?
00:26:54Cadence!
00:26:58Look at yourself.
00:27:00A rabid dog guarding a bone you don't even want to eat.
00:27:03Pathetic.
00:27:11If it means that much to you, dig it out of the trash.
00:27:15The memories I have of you are worth exactly that price.
00:27:20Remember how high and mighty you are right now, Franklin?
00:27:23You'll regret it.
00:27:26He thought he had humiliated me.
00:27:29He didn't know that he had just handed me the key to unlock my cage.
00:27:44My poor girl.
00:27:46The entire liquid capital of the Chase family is mobilized.
00:27:51Every connection, every favor, at your disposal.
00:27:57I will handle him, Dad.
00:27:59This is the plan.
00:28:01Since Franklin dared to humiliate you publicly, we will sever his entire potion supply chain during the banquet tomorrow night.
00:28:09Bleed his family dry.
00:28:15The strategy is too conservative.
00:28:18Don't just cut the supply chain.
00:28:20Short the subcubsidiary simultaneously.
00:28:22Force a margin call on his overseas merchant banks.
00:28:31Excuse me, Dad.
00:28:44What's up?
00:28:45Boss, the Shadow Korea's core is under attack.
00:28:48The European cartels you angered have pooled their resources.
00:28:50They've hired the best codebreakers to brute force our dormant dark crystals.
00:28:53The wards are collapsing.
00:28:55If they breach the final layer, your identity will be exposed.
00:28:58The entire continent will know Cadence Chase is M.
00:29:00Initiate the self-destruct sequence.
00:29:03I'll link my consciousness directly and rebuild the core wards.
00:29:07You can't do it remotely!
00:29:09To wake the dormant core, you need the physical master key.
00:29:12The metal badge!
00:29:18Franklin is not at home.
00:29:20I have three hours free.
00:29:45The moment I stepped into the study,
00:29:48I knew this night would not go smoothly.
00:30:03Well, well.
00:30:04Look who came crawling back.
00:30:06Did you come to beg Franklin to take you back?
00:30:08I didn't realize the Perez family was so bankrupt.
00:30:11Their daughter has to dig through another woman's closet to find something to wear.
00:30:14This robe belongs to the lady of this house.
00:30:17And soon, that will be me.
00:30:19Franklin told me to make myself at home.
00:30:22He's tired of you.
00:30:23This place is mine now.
00:30:30Oh my god!
00:30:31You actually came back to dig through the garbage?
00:30:34Did Franklin throw your little trinket away?
00:30:36Does it hurt to know he doesn't give a damn about you?
00:30:43If you ever come near Franklin again,
00:30:45I will ruin you.
00:30:53The next time you point that finger at me,
00:30:56you won't get it back.
00:30:59She laid there,
00:31:00seething with hatred and shame.
00:31:02But I didn't care.
00:31:04I had my key.
00:31:12Let go.
00:31:13Don't make me use force.
00:31:16Do you really think you won?
00:31:20Hillary, cancel the overseas follow-up.
00:31:23I need a drink.
00:31:28Cadence!
00:31:29No!
00:31:29Please!
00:31:30Please!
00:31:38Isabelle!
00:31:44She...
00:31:45She pushed me.
00:31:46It hurts.
00:31:47Franklin.
00:31:48It hurts so much.
00:31:55He was coming.
00:31:57With his rage,
00:31:58his misunderstanding,
00:31:59his loyalty that always picked the wrong person.
00:32:03What the hell did you do?
00:32:08I walk in,
00:32:09and she's bleeding on my floor!
00:32:12Is this your revenge?
00:32:13You are a blind fool.
00:32:15Check your own Skining wards.
00:32:30From this second forward,
00:32:32we are nothing but enemies.
00:32:41Franklin,
00:32:43please help me.
00:33:00He finally saw the truth.
00:33:03But it was already too late to undo anything.
00:33:13He's deleting his laundry.
00:33:13I'm gonna try.
00:33:22Ukrainian.
00:33:22Even though,
00:33:23he's a different step.
00:33:23The movie gets out of bed and out of bed.
00:33:24You still can't do anything to eat.
00:33:24It's sick.
00:33:24You still can't do anything to eat.
00:33:24He's on my side.
00:33:25He's doing nothing to eat.
00:33:25He's on my side.
00:33:25I'm stuck in a position.
00:33:26He's on my side.
00:33:28He's on my side.
00:33:34He's on my side.
00:33:47Who did that to you?
00:33:49Save it for later. We have a job to do.
00:33:52They breached the outer ward.
00:33:53We have less than 60 seconds where they bypass the core encryption.
00:33:57I need the key.
00:34:19Access granted. Welcome back, M.
00:34:22Wards reset. I'm locking them out. Burning their dark crystals.
00:34:27Open the highest tier global broadcast channel. Encrypt it.
00:34:31Send it to every syndicate boss and every shadow broker.
00:34:34A global ping? They'll all know you're active.
00:34:40That is the point. I am back, M.
00:34:43The European cartels that tried to break us, drain their accounts, send their ledgers to the Royal Merchant Guild.
00:34:54Done.
00:34:57What about the Mullah family? What do we do about Franklin?
00:35:03Franklin loves his empire, so we are going to burn it to the ground.
00:35:29Sir.
00:35:31Go ahead.
00:35:32Miss Perez has been admitted to the Mullah private infirmary, but she is screaming at the staff.
00:35:37She is demanding the Royal Guard.
00:35:39She wants to press attempted murder charges against Mrs. Chase.
00:35:44Let her call them.
00:35:46My God.
00:35:49Sir, where are you going?
00:35:50Franklin. There are rumors that M, the Master of the Shadow Curia, has returned.
00:35:54The Council needs you.
00:35:59Seal the floor.
00:36:01No one in or out without my authorization.
00:36:19Franklin! You came! I was so scared!
00:36:22Cadence is a monster!
00:36:24Mr. Why are you looking at me like that? She tried to kill me.
00:36:31No. That's... that's fake.
00:36:36You made me put my hands on my wife.
00:36:40You are done.
00:36:42Tomorrow morning, the Mullah family will sever all financial ties with the Perez family.
00:36:46Your father's trading company will be bankrupt by noon.
00:36:51You will be permanently blacklisted from high society.
00:36:54You can't do this to me!
00:36:57I saved your life!
00:36:59Four years ago!
00:37:00In the Signing River!
00:37:02I jumped into the freezing water!
00:37:04I fought off those heretics!
00:37:06I almost died for you!
00:37:09You owe me your life, Franklin!
00:37:11You can't destroy me!
00:37:27Fifty million gold coins?
00:37:30Here.
00:37:31This makes us even for saving my life.
00:37:35From this second forward, if you ever speak Cadence's name again...
00:37:39I will crush you and your family into dust.
00:37:58What the hell did you do?!
00:38:11I walked into the noble club.
00:38:14Eleonora, Franklin's grandmother, was hosting her 80th birthday banquet.
00:38:18The hall was packed with the kingdom's most powerful nobles, all buzzing with whispered rumors.
00:38:23The master of the shadow curia, M, had returned.
00:38:26Arthur Finch was the chief advisor to the royal treasury, and Eleonora's most trusted financier.
00:38:33Cadence, the Chase family looks strong tonight.
00:38:36Have you heard the rumors?
00:38:38M is back.
00:38:44Boss, I've activated the dormant curse you planted four years ago.
00:38:48One time bypass of their primary wards.
00:38:50We have a 30 second window to hit their core treasury before the wards seal themselves.
00:38:59He loved his fortune, so I was going to let him watch it all burn to ash.
00:39:07Money is everything.
00:39:09You're right, my dear.
00:39:10You look stunning tonight.
00:39:12Allow me to introduce David Foster, the royal healer's executive officer.
00:39:21Ma'am, your father's surgical devices are making waves.
00:39:25We were just discussing sanctified probes.
00:39:27By the way, the European syndicates are in a frenzy.
00:39:31They're looking for the elixir of life.
00:39:34Have you heard of it?
00:39:36They say it can cure heart failure.
00:39:38Eleonora just turned 80 tonight.
00:39:39Her heart is failing.
00:39:40The European cartels are desperately searching for it, hoping to offer it as tribute to the Moolahs.
00:39:45The rumor is, it's in the possession of M, the master of the Shadow Curia.
00:39:49Cadence, your family deals in alchemical recipes and healing secrets.
00:39:53Have you heard anything?
00:39:54Who has the elixir?
00:39:56I'm afraid you are chasing shadows, David.
00:39:58I have never heard of an elixir.
00:40:00And even if M possesses it, I highly doubt a simple healer like me would be privy to such secrets.
00:40:05Well, if the Chase family hasn't heard of it, it truly is untouchable.
00:40:15Excuse me.
00:40:22Cadence.
00:40:25Stop.
00:40:27Look around you.
00:40:28Half the nobility is watching.
00:40:30This is Eleonora's banquet, not your private chamber.
00:40:33Keep your dignity.
00:40:39Chet Kowalski.
00:40:41A nouveau riche merchant who made his fortune in smuggling.
00:40:44Excuse me.
00:40:45Don't go, Mrs. Lula.
00:40:47I heard some rumors.
00:40:49Step aside, Mr. Kowalski.
00:40:51Or you will lose your entire fortune.
00:40:53You're nothing now.
00:40:55Just used up trash.
00:40:57I bet you're desperate for a new sponsor.
00:41:00Come here, you little bitch.
00:41:20How dare you hit me?
00:41:28I'm going to kill you.
00:41:37It was Franklin.
00:41:41Take your hand off my wife.
00:41:43Mr. Mueller.
00:41:44Listen.
00:41:45It's a misunderstanding.
00:42:14Franklin, stop!
00:42:15You're going to kill him!
00:42:16You're going to kill him!
00:42:38Good God.
00:42:39Franklin, what happened here?
00:42:41Mr. Kowalski consumed a lethal amount of illegal dark emotics.
00:42:46He suffered a psychotic break.
00:42:48He tripped and fell against your stone wall.
00:42:51If a single word of this reaches anyone, if anyone suggests that my wife was involved,
00:42:56I will dismantle this club stone by stone.
00:42:59Do you understand me, Arthur?
00:43:01Yes.
00:43:02Yes, of course.
00:43:03A tragic drug overdosed.
00:43:05We will handle it immediately.
00:43:10He stood there, his hands covered in blood, looking at me, as if expecting a thank you,
00:43:16as if finally seeing what kind of monster he really was.
00:43:23Wipe your hands, Mr. Mueller.
00:43:25You are dripping on Arthur's carpet.
00:43:27Cadence.
00:43:28I saw the footage.
00:43:30I saw Isabelle throw herself down the stairs.
00:43:32I know she lied.
00:43:34I know everything.
00:43:35I was blind.
00:43:37I was a fool.
00:43:38Just give me a chance to fix this.
00:43:40So you watched a clip.
00:43:42You realized you were wrong.
00:43:45You beat a man half to death to feel like a man again.
00:43:50Then you apologize.
00:43:51You aren't apologizing to me, Franklin.
00:43:53You are apologizing to yourself.
00:43:56You are trying to scrub the guilt off your own conscience because you can't handle the
00:44:00fact that you choked your innocent wife for a liar.
00:44:03That's not...
00:44:04I don't care about your apologies.
00:44:06Your remorse means nothing to me because I do not love you anymore.
00:44:12You are nothing to me.
00:44:17Don't say that.
00:44:19You are my wife.
00:44:20We are not done.
00:44:22Did you tell Isabelle we were done when you ran to her infirmary bed to comfort her?
00:44:26How much did it cost to buy your consciences this time?
00:44:30Tens of millions?
00:44:31A hundred million?
00:44:38Keep your money.
00:44:40Keep your guilt.
00:44:41And keep your hands off me.
00:44:47He was coming after me again.
00:44:49But this time, I wouldn't stop.
00:45:06Get out.
00:45:10Tell me how to fix it.
00:45:12Tell me what you want.
00:45:13Gold?
00:45:15Estates?
00:45:16Or should I destroy the Perez family?
00:45:18Name your request.
00:45:20But you are not leaving me.
00:45:23I want a time wandering so I can go back three years and stop myself from wasting my youth
00:45:30on a blind, arrogant fool.
00:45:47You are disgusting.
00:45:49You run to her infirmary, pay her off, and then come back and try to force yourself on me.
00:45:56Like an animal in heat, tomorrow morning, nine o'clock.
00:46:01Elena Rostava's law firm.
00:46:03Bring your pen.
00:46:06He sat there like a hollowed-out shell.
00:46:09But I had no strength left to pity him.
00:46:12Not anymore.
00:46:17Your wife's teeth are quite sharp.
00:46:19That needs stitches.
00:46:22Shut your mouth.
00:46:23I'm in no mood for this.
00:46:25What was that out there?
00:46:27You beat a man into a coma.
00:46:29You chased your wife like a stalker.
00:46:32Are you trying to protect your ego or are you finally admitting you don't want this divorce?
00:46:36I want the divorce.
00:46:38I am sick of her lies.
00:46:42I just won't let her walk away thinking she won.
00:46:46I won't let Jean-Luc touch her.
00:46:49You don't care about winning.
00:46:52You looked at her in that hallway like a starving dog guarding a bone.
00:46:56Watch your mouth.
00:46:58Tomorrow at nine, you sign the paper.
00:47:00By nine o'clock, she is a free woman.
00:47:04Tomorrow night, she will be sitting at another man's table.
00:47:08By midnight, another man will undress her.
00:47:11Can you handle that, Franklin?
00:47:16What's wrong?
00:47:17Sir, Miss Perez discharged herself from the infirmary.
00:47:20She is in the main lobby, screaming at the guards, demanding to see you.
00:47:24Bring her to the top floor private lounge.
00:47:26Keep her away from everyone.
00:47:31He was rushing to see his savior.
00:47:34He didn't know.
00:47:35He was walking himself right into the abyss.
00:47:47Franklin!
00:47:51Sit down.
00:47:57The whole city is talking.
00:47:59You beat a man half to death because he looked at Cadence.
00:48:03Tell me it isn't true.
00:48:05Tell me you didn't forget who saved your life.
00:48:07I hit him because he assaulted a representative of the Muller family.
00:48:11It had nothing to do with Cadence.
00:48:14What is that?
00:48:16She bit you?
00:48:17Were you kissing that bitch?
00:48:21Watch your tone.
00:48:22Until the documents are signed, Cadence is still my wife.
00:48:27You will not disrespect her.
00:48:31Mobilize the entire reserve fund.
00:48:34Initiate a hostile takeover of Chet's trading company.
00:48:37I want him bankrupt.
00:48:38Yes, sir.
00:48:38When will she be gone?
00:48:40Franklin, when will you be free?
00:48:43Tomorrow morning.
00:48:44Nine o'clock.
00:48:46Elena Rostova's law firm.
00:48:48I am signing the papers.
00:48:49I will come with you.
00:48:52No.
00:48:53You will stay in your apartment.
00:49:06He had backed himself into a corner for a lie.
00:49:09He was about to sign his own ruin with his own hand.
00:49:20To freedom.
00:49:22Thank you, Mom and Dad.
00:49:23Elena sent the confirmation.
00:49:25Tomorrow morning at nine.
00:49:27Then you will never have to look at that blind fool again.
00:49:37Excuse me.
00:49:39Excuse me.

01:03:01moon restaurant tomorrow at 7 pm
01:03:04she is meeting leland kendrick
01:03:10he was rushing to ruin that meeting his jealousy always got the better of his reason
01:03:21when my father said you requested a meeting i assumed we would discuss partnerships
01:03:26i didn't expect to be having dinner with the woman who saved his life

01:03:54i'm not afraid of franklin not his lawyers and certainly not the royal messengers
01:04:01to honesty then to new alliances
01:04:17franklin had arrived with his rage and jealousy
01:04:23seems locking you in the estate was pointless

01:04:34mistaken i invited her to dinner because she saved my father's life we owe her one
01:04:41and you've got the wrong target the only person in this room clinging desperately to a man

01:07:23i knew franklin saw it but he didn't know that this game had only just begun
01:07:36they are here just be yourself today
01:07:40Cadence.
01:08:18Thanks.
01:08:22You have a brilliant mind Cadence.
01:08:25Any man who marries the Chase daughter will be the luckiest man in the kingdom.
01:08:29I completely agree Dad.
01:08:31Leland has done exceptional work on the continent.
01:08:36Did you sleep well last night?
01:08:41The air in the city is too heavy.
01:08:43I want to get out to the countryside estate for some fresh air.
01:08:48We have an estate in the countryside.
01:08:50You are welcome there.
01:08:53I want to go to the noble hunting grounds.
01:08:55I need to shoot a few arrows.
01:08:58Do you know how to use a bow, Cadence?
01:09:00I am afraid I am a beginner, Mr. Kendrick.
01:09:02But I am always willing to learn.
01:09:05Perfect!
01:09:07I already have an afternoon reservation at the noble hunting grounds.
01:09:11Leland can teach you.
01:09:12We are leaving in an hour.
01:09:13I didn't like the sport.
01:09:14But for the alliance, I had to play along.
01:09:18As the carriage passed over the river,
01:09:20I thought of the day I saved Franklin.
01:09:24The familiar suffocating grip clawed at my throat.
01:09:27Mrs. Chase, what style of architecture do you prefer?
01:09:31Leland's question pulled my attention away from the water just in time.
01:09:3615 minutes later, the carriage rolled into the countryside estate.
01:09:46We are going to the front grounds.
01:09:48You two take your time on the archery range.
01:10:20Keep your head down.
01:10:22Now, release.
01:10:49Oh, my God.
01:10:51Isn't that Cadence?
01:10:52What did she do with me?
01:10:53What are you doing with the Kendrick air?
01:11:04Mr. Kendrick,
01:11:05I did not know you had given up your family's trading fleets to become a cheap archery instructor.
01:11:12If the student is Mrs. Chase,
01:11:14I'm more than willing to offer lifetime lessons for free.
01:11:20I warned you last night.
01:11:22You are still wearing the Muller name.
01:11:25You do not let another man touch you in public.
01:11:29Franklin, the only thing keeping me in your family
01:11:33is those papers you won't sign.
01:11:39You brought your mistress to the noble archery grounds.
01:11:43After I said it, I saw his face twist.
01:11:49How can she say that about me?
01:11:51We are practically engaged.
01:11:55Mr. Kendrick, you might not know.
01:11:58Cadence is still a married woman.
01:12:01If you keep touching her,
01:12:03your family will not be happy about the scandal.
01:12:06Ms. Perez, you misunderstand something.
01:12:08I am not here on a date.
01:12:10I am here representing the Kendrick family.
01:12:13We are finalizing a marriage contract with the Chase family.
01:12:16The second Cadence is legally single.
01:12:19The contract activates.
01:12:23I am simply protecting my future fiancée.
01:12:31I will never sign those papers!
01:12:33She is my wife!
01:12:35You just can't stand the fact that the woman who once loved you
01:12:40no longer begs for your attention.
01:12:47You can't even lift a bow, yet you are really sharp-tongued.
01:12:52Cadence, let's make a bet.
01:12:55Three arrows, we'll see who hits the bullseye first.
01:12:58She wanted to humiliate me with the one thing she was good at.
01:13:05The loser has to publicly admit their family is completely inferior,
01:13:09and bow to the winner's family in front of every noble here.
01:13:14In the world of old money,
01:13:16refusing a public challenge was simply not done.
01:13:19It meant admitting you were weak.
01:13:21Isabel chose this moment on purpose to challenge me.
01:13:25Cadence, don't agree.
01:13:26Let's go.
01:13:28That's enough, Isabel.
01:13:30Shut your mouth and get back.
01:13:33What's wrong, Cadence?
01:13:35Is the Chase daughter a coward?
01:13:37Or do you just know you are going to lose?
01:13:43I accept.
01:13:46I will stand by whatever you decide.
01:13:55Perfect pull!
01:13:58Your turn.
01:14:04I knew I would lose.
01:14:06She knew I would lose.
01:14:07Everyone knew.
01:14:08But losing a game she was good at,
01:14:10didn't mean losing the war.
01:14:23I guess the Chase family's gold can't buy archery talent.
01:14:32I lost.
01:14:35Bow your head.
01:14:37Tell everyone the Chase family is nothing compared to my family.
01:14:46I have never been particularly skilled at games.
01:14:50The Chase family has never derived its value from leisure.
01:14:54We derive it from innovation.
01:14:56Leland, to finalize our discussion from this morning,
01:14:59Chase Medical Guild formally accepts the Kendrick Concera Strategic Partnership Proposal for the Continental Market.
01:15:05My father and I look forward to hosting you and your father tomorrow to sign the initial merger terms.
01:15:16He had gone mad, but this time, his madness would only drag him deeper into the abyss.
01:15:26Take your hands off her, Franklin.
01:15:28Take your hands off her, Franklin.
01:15:32Do you know what you are doing?
01:15:34Announcing mergers?
01:15:36Stop lying to yourself, Franklin.
01:15:38You don't care about the family.
01:15:40You are just having a meltdown because your toy is gone.
01:15:45You are jealous.
01:15:51You think finding a new noble backer will get you away from me?
01:15:55As long as you are my wife, you belong to me!
01:15:58Then sign the divorce papers today.
01:16:01Prove to everyone that you can live without me.
01:16:04Even if I sign those papers, I will freeze every gold coin you have.
01:16:09I will make sure you leave me with nothing.
01:16:13Enough! Everyone is watching you!
01:16:29Stop this right now!
01:16:31My father had arrived, but Franklin's fist could no longer be pulled back.
01:16:44We are leaving, Cadence.
01:16:47A daughter of the Chase family does not need to prove her worth to some bastard.
01:17:04My bag.
01:17:06Wait here.
01:17:19Why did you run out there?
01:17:21Why do you care if she makes a deal with the Kendricks?
01:17:24Do you still love her?
01:17:25I told you.
01:17:26I was protecting the family's image.
01:17:29You are a liar!
01:17:31I saw how you looked at her!
01:17:34I have a headache.
01:17:37Stop acting like a child.
01:17:49They were fighting like mad dogs, but I had no interest in watching anymore.
01:18:02I had no idea.
01:18:03The great Franklin Muller got punched by the Kendrick boy today?
01:18:07Shut up.
01:18:09If you are here to make fun of me, get out.
01:18:11You spent three years ignoring your wife?
01:18:15Now you are throwing punches over her?
01:18:17Why?
01:18:23Stop worrying about your bruised face. Look at this.
01:18:35But this time, his collapse would only drive him deeper into madness.
01:18:43Sir, we are already drafting a statement. To deny the rumors about you and Isabel...
01:18:48I don't care about Isabel.
01:18:50I want you to erase every message about Cadence and Leland. Every article. Every still.
01:18:59Sir, that will cost tens of thousands of gold coins. The Council will not approve.
01:19:04I am the Council! Wipe it all away!
01:19:07If any messenger mention wife's name again, I will ruin them!
01:19:18You are mine, Cadence. You will never escape me.
01:19:23He made his vow to an empty room. He thought he had won.
01:19:27He didn't know that the cage door had never been locked.
