Short filmTranscript
00:00On my wedding day, my husband abandoned me at the altar, and my grandmother suffered a sudden, fatal heart attack.
00:05My husband, Leon, was the underboss and chief surgeon of the Castillo family.
00:10At that exact moment, he was accompanying his ex-girlfriend, searching for her lost dog.
00:15That day, her dog was found.
00:16Meanwhile, I lay on the freezing hospital floor, handed my grandmother's death certificate.
00:21My best friend, Clara, was by my side.
00:23Today, she was supposed to marry Vance, the CEO who controlled the Castillo commercial empire, and Leon's younger brother.
00:30We had promised each other that we would become the happiest brides on the very same day.
00:34But now, her wedding dress was just as ruined and torn as mine.
00:37During the rival family's ambush and the ensuing shootout at the wedding,
00:41that powerful CEO Vance had similarly abandoned his own bride to shield the important person in his heart.
00:46Clara, I want a divorce.
00:49Me too.
00:50Let those two Castillo bastards rot in hell together!
00:5530 minutes earlier, Leon's phone rang just a second before the priest could read our vows.
01:00He was leaving to help his ex-girlfriend find her missing Doberman.
01:04He didn't even cast a single glance back at me.
01:06The moment he left, hit men from a rival family stormed the wedding.
01:10The fright triggered a heart attack in my grandmother, my only remaining family.
01:14I frantically dialed Leon's phone.
01:15He was the only surgeon in the city who could perform this operation.
01:19Elena, what the hell is wrong with you?
01:21Please, come back!
01:21Grandmother is dying, I beg you!
01:24Save her!
01:25Shut up!
01:26You're cursing your own grandmother just to force me back to marry you?
01:29Elena, your jealousy disgusts me.
01:31I am not lying!
01:33Her heart is stopping!
01:35Serafina's dog has been with her for years.
01:37It is vital to her, and that is a living soul too.
01:40Once I find it, I'll come back and finish the wedding with you.
01:43But stop testing my limits with your pathetic acting.
01:45It only makes me feel like I'm marrying a heartless monster.
01:48And I permanently lost the only family I had left in this world.
01:52The day of my grandmother's funeral, it poured rain.
01:56On my phone, I happened to see Serafina's latest post on social media.
01:59The caption read, almost lost my baby.
02:02Thank goodness his daddy found him in time.
02:04With you here, I feel safe.
02:06Once, when I was sweating in agony from acute appendicitis, Leon had lipped on coldly.
02:11Lighting a cigarette, he told me that a mafia woman couldn't be afraid of pain.
02:14Yet, when Serafina merely nicked her finger, he blew through multiple red lights just to get to her.
02:21Now, he had refused to return to New York to save my grandmother.
02:24Yet, he had all the time in the world to stroll along the sunny beach with his ex-girlfriend.
02:28I have no home anymore.
02:30You still have me!
02:31To hell with those Castillo bastards!
02:34This divorce is happening, no matter what!
02:41Two separate divorce agreements were sent simultaneously to the Castillo brothers' inboxes.
02:46The second the messages went through, my phone buzzed.
02:49Elena, your tricks really are endless.
02:51Yesterday, it was a dying grandmother act, and today you're threatening me with divorce?
02:55A mafia marriage is a vow of allegiance, not a game of house for you to play.
02:59Leon, I'm serious.
03:00Tomorrow morning at 9.30, the private meeting room in the Castillo Tower.
03:04Fine, since you're so eager to taste life without Castillo protection, I'll grant your wish.
03:08I just hope you don't end up on your knees crying tomorrow.
03:10Almost at the exact same moment, Clara got a call from Vance.
03:14Clara, I just got off my private jet.
03:16Are you gonna keep throwing a tantrum and demanding a divorce over some trivial little thing?
03:20You call having dinner, going shopping, and checking into a hotel with an actress trivital?
03:25That's all just paparazzi nonsense.
03:27But if you really want a divorce, I'm ready whenever you are.
03:30Vance, be there tomorrow or be square.
03:33Clara and I were different.
03:35I had lost both my parents as a child and grew up depending solely on my grandmother.
03:39Clara, however, came from another mafia family.
03:42Though her marriage to Vance was an alliance, she had genuinely loved him.
03:46Both men treated us like dirt, but we had believed that over time,
03:49even the coldest heart could be warmed by love.
03:51Unfortunately, three years of devotion had bought us nothing but humiliation.
03:55They thought this was just another tantrum.
03:57They didn't know, this time, we would never look back.
04:02The next day at 9.30 a.m. at the entrance of the group's headquarters.
04:06Clara, last chance.
04:09Don't treat an alliance marriage as your personal tantrum chip.
04:12Elena, keep your possessiveness in check.
04:15Turn back now, and I'll treat this as a fit of peace.
04:18Walk through those doors, and you will never become Mrs. Castilan.
04:22Elena, you've really misunderstood.
04:24Leon left you at the wedding that day only to help me find my lost baby.
04:28You really shouldn't have fabricated the death of the old lady just to force Leon back to the church.
04:33By mafia code, that's a very unlucky curse.
04:36Your grandmother loved you so much, Elena.
04:38To curse her just for more attention, you're truly beneath my respect.
04:42Leon Castillo, open your eyes and see clearly.
04:45My grandmother is dead, right after you left with your bodyguards to find a dog.
04:49I called you ten times, begged on my knees for you to come back and save her.
04:52You refused, as you wish.
04:55I don't want Castillo's protection anymore.
04:59I'm a medical prodigy, Elena.
05:01I know her medical condition better than you ever could.
05:04As long as she took her medication on time, she couldn't have deteriorated so suddenly.
05:08I never thought you'd stoop to forging a death certificate just to soften me up.
05:12I'm so disappointed in you.
05:14You don't really want a divorce.
05:16You're just using this fake stunt to force me to give in.
05:19Let me tell you, don't think I'll indulge you.
05:21Leon, you're not just cold-blooded, you're also truly stupid.
05:24I lost all interest in explaining further.
05:27Signing, stamping, asset division.
05:30The whole process was eerily quick.
05:33As we stepped out of the building, the sunlight was painfully blinding.
05:36Leon stared at me intently.
05:38I knew what he was waiting for.
05:39He expected me to break down at the last moment and beg him on my knees to take me back.
05:43But I didn't.
05:45On pure instinct, knocking the dog aside.
05:50Don't hurt my baby!
05:52Serafina!
05:55Are you okay?
05:56Elena!
05:58Apologize to Serafina!
05:59Now!
06:00I couldn't be bothered.
06:02I told you to apologize!
06:04Do you hear me?
06:05Blinded by rage, he used excessive force.
06:08He didn't expect how fragile and physically depleted I had become.
06:11Elena!
06:11Don't be afraid!
06:12It's okay, it's okay!
06:14Leon Castile!
06:15You absolute animal!
06:17Don't you know?
06:18Elena is pregnant!
06:21When I opened my eyes again, all I saw was a cold, sterile white.
06:26This was the Castillo family's private hospital.
06:28I raised my hand to my lower belly.
06:30It was empty.
06:32That little life, one I hadn't even had time to feel joy over, was already gone.
06:37You were pregnant.
06:39Why didn't you tell me?
06:41On the day my grandmother died, I fainted from overwhelming grief.
06:45Clara, worried about my health, called in her family's private physician to run a full
06:49checkup on me.
06:50That was the day I learned of this little life.
06:52But I never intended to tell Leon.
06:54He didn't love me, so naturally he wouldn't want the child.
06:58I had planned to leave New York after the divorce and raise my baby alone on some sunny coast.
07:03Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that the underboss of the Castillo family would
07:06personally kill his own flesh and blood.
07:08In just a few days, I had lost two loved ones back to back.
07:16Elena, don't look at me like that.
07:18Please don't cry.
07:19You just had surgery.
07:20You shouldn't shed tears.
07:22If you hadn't pushed me, my child would still be alive.
07:25I'm sorry.
07:26It's my fault.
07:28I swear I didn't know.
07:29I didn't mean to-
07:31What do you know?
07:31You're nothing but a doctor who killed his own child.
07:34A mafioso who couldn't even protect his own heir.
07:38Leon, you're utterly pathetic.
07:41No, we're still young.
07:43We can have more children in the future.
07:45And I didn't know Grandma's death was real.
07:49I thought you were lying to me.
07:51I've already checked with the doctors from that day.
07:53If I had known it was true, I would have come back immediately to perform her surgery.
07:57If he had even a shred of respect for my grandmother, one phone call, one simple check,
08:01would have revealed the truth after I called.
08:03But he didn't.
08:04Because in his eyes, I was nothing but a lying woman who would stop at nothing to stay in
08:09the Castillo family.
08:10Leon Castillo, stop pretending to be devoted.
08:14Admit it.
08:15In your heart, neither me, nor my grandmother, nor our child mattered.
08:20That dog Serafina keeps was more valuable to you than my grandmother's life.
08:26No, that's not true.
08:29Grandma mattered.
08:30Our child mattered too.
08:32Elena, give me one more chance.
08:34Let me make it up to you.
08:35Let's cancel the divorce.
08:37Sign a new marriage contract.
08:40It's impossible.
08:42Leon, have you forgotten?
08:44Back then, because Grandma was sick and I couldn't afford the medical bills, I was desperate.
08:49That's when I agreed to your contract fiancé arrangement.
08:53Over time, I fell in love with you.
08:55To become sisters-in-law with Clara, I chased you for three years.
08:59But now I'm awake.
09:00The last words my grandmother said before she died were for me to divorce you and never see
09:05you again for the rest of my life.
09:07I lied.
09:08Grandma left too quickly.
09:10She didn't have time to leave me any last words.
09:12But I thought, if Grandma's soul could see me, she would surely want me to divorce Leon as well.
09:17Well, someone like him doesn't deserve my love.
09:21You agreed to the divorce today yourself.
09:24The Castillos never regret their decisions.
09:26You said that yourself.
09:28Now take your ex-girlfriend and her dog and get the hell out of my sight.
09:34Serafine and I are not what you think.
09:36After she broke up with me, she developed depression.
09:38I felt guilty and I only wanted to make it up to her.
09:42I haven't felt any physical desire for her for a long time.
09:46The one I truly love is you, Elena.
09:50You love me?
09:51Leon, this is your love?
09:54If you loved me, would you have left me at the altar in front of all of New York's elite,
09:58made me the laughing-style of the city, and caused my grandmother to have a heart attack
10:02from shock?
10:03If you loved me, would you have refused to save a life just to help her find a dog?
10:06If you loved me, would you have shoved me down a dozen stone steps to make me apologize
10:10to your first love, and killed your own child with your own hands?
10:14Don't insult my ears with the word love, Leon.
10:17You disgust me.
10:20I'm sorry.
10:21If I had known you were pregnant, I would never have signed that divorce agreement,
10:25let alone allowed anyone to hurt you.
10:28It's all my fault.
10:29Saying this now means nothing except to show your hypocrisy.
10:32The child is gone.
10:33Leon, the last bond between you and me is broken.
10:36Take your bodyguards and get the hell out.
10:42Leon, is Elena okay?
10:44Leon, don't be too hard on yourself.
10:46It really isn't your fault.
10:49You didn't know she was pregnant, and you didn't push her on purpose.
10:53As for her grandmother?
10:54She was old.
10:55Under the crossfire of Mafia turf wars, she could have died at any moment.
10:59That was her fate.
11:00Nothing to do with you.
11:03Leon, you hit me?
11:06We've known each other for ten whole years, and you hit me for that woman?
11:10That day, did that Doberman slip its leash on its own, or did you let it go on purpose?
11:17You suspect me?
11:19That dog was trained.
11:21Extremely obedient.
11:23Why, of all times, did it go missing just then?
11:27Serafina, do you take me for a fool?
11:30Cut off all her funding.
11:32Throw her out of New York.
11:33Look, from now on, I don't want to see your face again.
11:36Leon, don't you want me anymore?
11:38Please don't abandon me.
11:40I've thought about you every day since we broke up.
11:43Can we please get back together?
11:44I'm a married man.
11:47But you got divorced.
11:49We will remarry.
11:58You can't get out of bed right now.
12:00Let go of me, Leon Costillo.
12:01I'll have the lawyers destroy the divorce agreement.
12:03Before God and the Castillo family, only death can separate us.
12:07That piece of paper means nothing.
12:08You're never leaving me in this lifetime.
12:18This broth was specially made for you.
12:19It's good for recovery after surgery.
12:20Have a little.
12:21Take your things and get out.
12:28Helena, I know how terribly wrong I was.
12:31You can do anything to me and I swear I won't fight back.
12:34Serafina will disappear from New York completely.
12:36Can we please start over?
12:38In the past few years of marriage, this lofty mafia underboss had never stooped so low.
12:43But now my heart was nothing but a dead silence.
12:46You want my forgiveness?
12:47Fine.
12:48Just bring my grandmother back to life from her grave and make my child's heart beat again.
12:52Can you do that, great Dr. Castillo?
12:55Two lives stood between us.
12:57In this lifetime, we could only ever be mortal enemies.
13:04I'm sorry.
13:05I'll go out then.
13:07Remember to eat.
13:08For the rest of my hospital stay, Clara took care of me personally.
13:11Leon showed up at the hospital every day, handing the soup he had made himself to Clara.
13:16He never set foot in the ward again, but stood outside like a statue, sometimes for two hours at a
13:21stretch.
13:21When nurses who didn't know the truth walked by, they looked envious.
13:27Madam, the underchief really loves you.
13:29I heard he's postponed three captor-renner meetings just to stay with you.
13:32I found it absurdly ridiculous.
13:34A week later, I was discharged.
13:36Clara and I went back to the Castillo mansion together to pack our final belongings.
13:40Clara was always a woman of action.
13:42She directed a few bodyguards to haul all the things she had bought for the master bedroom out in one
13:47go,
13:47then set them on fire in the yard.
13:49Those were things she had once bought for Vance, but that man had never even looked at them.
13:54Everything will pass, Clara.
13:56The Castillo name doesn't deserve to trap us.
13:59We'll live better than anyone.
14:02Damn right.
14:03Let those two Castillo scumbags rot in hell.
14:06When the Maroni family learned of her divorce from Vance, they exploded with rage.
14:10After all, the alliance represented millions of dollars in arms deals and territorial ties,
14:15not something two people could just dissolve on a whim.
14:17Clara couldn't be bothered to go back and listen to the old men's long-winded lectures about interests,
14:21so she simply took me to live in a large villa she had bought before the wedding.
14:27Late at night, we curled up on the sofa, drinking red wine and watching variety shows.
14:34Clara, what do you mean by clearing out everything in the master bedroom?
14:38We are already divorced.
14:39If I don't take my things, should I leave them for you and that Hollywood actress to use as bedroom
14:43props?
14:45My custom-made white dress shirt is missing.
14:47Come over right now and help me find it.
14:49Vance Castro, listen carefully.
14:51We no longer have any legal or covenational relationship.
14:54It doesn't matter if your white shirt is missing or if you get shot to death on the street by
14:58your enemies tomorrow.
14:59The most I'll do is play a jazz tune at your grave.
15:03Clara, cut the boring act. I know you don't really want a divorce.
15:06You're just using this stunt to get my attention to make me spend more time with you.
15:10Congratulations, you've succeeded.
15:12I'm giving you 48 hours.
15:14Pack your things and move back here immediately.
15:16These two brothers were exactly alike, narcissistic beyond cure.
15:20Vance, who exactly gave you the confidence that I divorced you to get your attention?
15:24The moment we divorced, we stopped having any relationship.
15:27In that case, tomorrow at 9 in the morning, I'll come pick you up. We'll have another wedding.
15:33Dream on.
15:34Listen to me clearly.
15:35In this lifetime, I will never swear an oath to you in front of the Godfather again.
15:38Get that little fantasy out of your head.
15:43Hear that?
15:43That's the universal disease of Castillo men.
15:46They always think women are playing hard to get.
15:51Where did you move all your things?
15:53Why didn't you have your bodyguards notify me?
15:54You just had a miscarriage and underwit major surgery.
15:57You need to stay in New York to recuperate properly.
15:59Move back, Elena.
16:00If you don't want to see me, we can wait until your body recovers to talk, okay?
16:02Dozens of messages flooded in within minutes.
16:05I stared at the words and felt a strange, heavy sense of irony.
16:09During the years we were married, he never sent me more than three words in a single message.
16:14It was always me anxiously sending him a long string of greetings, and only after more than
16:1810 hours would he coldly reply with an okay or busy.
16:20Back then, I was such a fool, constantly comforting myself.
16:24He's the Castillo underboss.
16:25He has to kill for the Godfather.
16:27He also has to perform surgeries.
16:29He's busy, and he's naturally cold-blooded.
16:31Then I saw how he treated Serafina, and I finally woke up.
16:35He isn't cold-blooded.
16:36He's just cold-blooded toward me.
16:38I blocked Leon Castillo.
16:40Clara.
16:41What are men anyway?
16:43Alcohol and freedom are far more charming.
16:48A few days later, Clara and I co-founded a jewelry studio, Nirvana.
16:52I am a jewelry designer, a graduate of Central Saint Martins in London.
16:57Clara, as a former top-tier mafia heiress,
17:00holds the core connections to high society socialites and godmothers across America.
17:04Taking a slice of this fast market was almost effortless for us.
17:08We acted on our plan immediately.
17:10In less than half a month, the Nirvana studio officially opened its doors.
17:14At first, orders were sparse, but I had total confidence that business would get better and better.
17:19That afternoon, I had just finished revising a design blueprint and was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window with
17:24a cup of coffee.
17:25Thinking it was a customer, I turned around with a professional smile.
17:29Elena, I'm here to discuss a piece of family business.
17:34Since when does a Castillo doctor need custom jewelry?
17:39I want to commission a wedding ring for my Mrs. Castillo.
17:43I want to use the largest blood diamond in America to beg for her forgiveness and ask her to come
17:48home with me.
17:51Leon, do you know how ridiculous you look right now?
17:54Since you moved out, Elena, the bedroom has been nothing but dead silence.
17:57Every night I close my eyes, I see you bleeding on those steps.
18:00I've started to suffer from insomnia, and I can't force myself to eat.
18:03Elena, I can't live without you.
18:05Come back to me.
18:06You can even point your gun straight at me if you want.
18:08Please.
18:11Leon, listen carefully.
18:12I don't love you anymore.
18:14Whether you live or die means absolutely nothing to me.
18:16If you dare come looking for me again, I will immediately buy a plane ticket and make sure you never
18:19see my face again for the rest of your life.
18:22I couldn't be bothered to watch him perform, so I turned and went upstairs.
18:26Later, the receptionist told me that Leon had sat on the sofa downstairs for three whole hours,
18:31and when he finally left, he had even shed tears.
18:33Leon Castillo, this is exactly the karma you deserve.
18:40Late that afternoon, we saw a tall figure outside the door, Vance Castillo.
18:44This is that cake you learned to make in Paris.
18:46I had my chef recreate it.
18:48He offered it to Clara.
18:52You've had your fun.
18:53Come back to the estate.
18:55Security outside is too low.
18:56By the way, tomorrow night the Metropolitan is hosting a joint gala for the top families.
19:01You'll accompany me.
19:02In the past, Vance had been extremely reluctant to bring Clara to any family gatherings.
19:07He considered his arranged marriage wife nothing more than a trophy,
19:10preferring to bring actresses to impress others.
19:12Now, for him to voluntarily ask Clara to attend MENT.
19:17Introduce me as what?
19:18Your ex-wife?
19:19Clara!
19:20I personally postponed a billion dollar meeting,
19:23brought your favorite cake to win you over.
19:25What more do you want?
19:26The Mafia's patience has its limits!
19:29Vance, listen carefully.
19:30I learned to make that cake for you,
19:32but now I don't like blueberry cake anymore.
19:39Just like I don't like you.
19:47The word give up clearly didn't exist in the Mafia President's Dictionary.
19:51Every day, the Castillo family's cars parked outside the studio.
19:55A never-ending stream of expensive jewelry and haute couture dresses poured in,
19:59as if money meant nothing.
20:00In previous years, Vance couldn't be bothered even on Clara's birthday.
20:03Now he seemed ready to lay all of Manhattan at her feet.
20:07Clara either refused delivery or simply handed the gifts out to the studio staff.
20:12If Clara refuses to remarry me,
20:14I will terminate all collaboration with your family and cut off all your financial sources.
20:19No one can bear the consequence.
20:21You know what to do.
20:22Vance even used Mafia pressure to warn the old men of the Moroni family,
20:25forcing them to act as mediators and push Clara into remarrying.
20:28Vance controls all our family resources.
20:30You have to reconcile with him.
20:32Your personal will cannot ruin the entire family's future.
20:35Give in.
20:35This is the only way to save us all.
20:38If you keep pushing me to remarry,
20:40I will drag the entire Castillo family down with me.
20:45Did those old bastards finally back off?
20:48That evening, I was working late at the studio when my phone rang.
20:52It was Clara.
20:56Elena.
20:57Come pick me up at the Italian restaurant on 5th Avenue.
20:59Something's happened.
21:01When I arrived, the restaurant was completely surrounded by cars.
21:05Clara had only gone to discuss a deal with a diamond supplier.
21:08But somehow, that lunatic Vance had gotten word and thought Clara was on a date with another man.
21:13He'd stormed the restaurant with a team of mercenaries and hurt him three of the poor man's ribs.
21:17Not only that, but he'd also smashed a new car parked outside to pieces.
21:22And that car wasn't the client's, it was the one I had just picked up yesterday.
21:25After all.
21:26In a big business.
21:28For now.
21:30For now.
21:30following.
21:30If you like.
21:30You're welcome.
21:30I'll see you're welcome.
21:31Bye.
