AmusantTranscription
00:00:00I stand at the entrance of the wedding hall, wearing a pure white gown,
00:00:04my fingers scratching the bouquet tightly.
00:00:07Felix, the wedding's about to start.
00:00:09You can't just leave.
00:00:10I reach for his arm, my fingers trembling.
00:00:14Move. Joanna's hurt. I have to be there for her.
00:00:18He shoves my hand away
00:00:22and pushes open the church doors without looking back.
00:00:25I stumble and fall onto the cold floor,
00:00:28watching helplessly as his figure disappears.
00:00:32Five years. Five full years.
00:00:35Whenever Joanna needs him, he abandons me just like this.
00:00:39My phone suddenly rings.
00:00:41I answer with trembling hands.
00:00:46Lindsay, today's your big day, isn't it?
00:00:49Did you like the little gift I sent you?
00:00:51I grip the phone so hard my nails dig into my palm.
00:00:54I look down at this carefully chosen wedding gown,
00:00:57lace, pearls, the train.
00:01:00Every detail cost me countless effort.
00:01:02But now, it all feels like a joke.
00:01:05I'm an orphan.
00:01:06My biggest dream since childhood has been to have a home of my own.
00:01:11But Felix can never give me that.
00:01:14I take a deep breath and wipe the tears from my eyes.
00:01:18Joanna, you're going to be disappointed.
00:01:20The wedding is still happening.
00:01:23Without Felix as the groom, how can you have a wedding?
00:01:34I sneer, slowly stand up,
00:01:38and lift the hem of my gown.
00:01:40Who says my groom has to be Felix?
00:01:43I push open the side door of the church and rush out.
00:01:48Outside stand rows of black-suited bodyguards,
00:01:51searching everywhere for something.
00:01:52In the middle of the crowd,
00:01:54a man in a wheelchair catches my eye.
00:02:00He's dressed in a sharp, groomed suit,
00:02:03radiating an icy, commanding presence.
00:02:07The ceremony is about to begin.
00:02:10Have you found her yet?
00:02:11Mr. Riley,
00:02:13Miss Walton has fled.
00:02:14His gaze turns razor-sharp,
00:02:17like a predator sizing up its prey.
00:02:21I understand in an instant,
00:02:23he's been abandoned at the altar.
00:02:25Just like me.
00:02:27Without hesitation,
00:02:29I lift my gown and stride toward him.
00:02:31Sir,
00:02:32your bride has run away.
00:02:33Then let me take her place.
00:02:35I'll be your bride.
00:02:36The bodyguards immediately block me.
00:02:39Their faces wary.
00:02:40The man in the wheelchair slowly turns his head,
00:02:42his gaze landing slat on me.
00:02:44His is agreeing fun on me with overwhelming intensity.
00:02:47But I don't flinch.
00:02:49I meet his eyes directly.
00:02:53Are you certain about this?
00:02:54I'm disabled.
00:02:55If you marry me,
00:02:57you'll regret it.
00:02:58Would you ever abandon your wife for another woman?
00:03:03He doesn't hesitate.
00:03:04His tone is firm.
00:03:06Of course not.
00:03:09I step forward,
00:03:10my voice even more resolute.
00:03:13Then either were hope-wated.
00:03:15Long till you agree,
00:03:16I'll marry you.
00:03:19He looks at me for a long time,
00:03:21then slowly nods.
00:03:24All right then,
00:03:25let's get married.
00:03:27Just like that,
00:03:28under the priest's witness,
00:03:30I exchange vows with a complete stranger.
00:03:34Walking out of the church,
00:03:36the sun stings my eyes.
00:03:38I still feel dazed.
00:03:40I push his wheelchair down the steps,
00:03:42the wheels crunching on the gravel.
00:03:49By the way,
00:03:50I don't even know your name.
00:03:53Colin Riley.
00:03:54I stop abruptly,
00:03:56my eyes widening.
00:03:57Wait,
00:03:58you're Colin Riley?
00:04:00The eldest son of the Riley family?
00:04:02He sees my shock,
00:04:04and curls his lips into a mocking smile.
00:04:09What's the matter?
00:04:10Now that you know you've married a loser,
00:04:12you're regretting it?
00:04:12His story is known throughout the city.
00:04:14His mother died in childbirth,
00:04:16his father remarried,
00:04:18then a car accident left him paralyzed,
00:04:20cast out by the Riley family.
00:04:27I look into his eyes.
00:04:29There's no anger there,
00:04:30only deep exhaustion and self-mockery.
00:04:33Suddenly,
00:04:34I feel we're the same.
00:04:36Both abandoned souls.
00:04:39I reach out and gently take his fingers.
00:04:43His hand is cold.
00:04:46Once I've made my decision,
00:04:47I won't regret it.
00:04:49Now that we're married,
00:04:50I'll give you a real home.
00:04:52He looks down at my hand,
00:04:54his eyes full of doubt.
00:04:56Is that so?
00:04:57Let's see then.
00:04:58He doesn't believe me.
00:04:59I can feel it.
00:05:00But I won't give up.
00:05:02I'll prove it with my actions.
00:05:07Let's go.
00:05:08I'm taking you home.
00:05:12Home.
00:05:12That word makes my heart skip a beat.
00:05:19I return to the condo
00:05:20I once shared with Felix.
00:05:22The key turns in the lock
00:05:23and the door creaks open.
00:05:25The decorations on the wall,
00:05:27the plants on the window silled.
00:05:29Everything here carries my touch.
00:05:32But now,
00:05:33these things only make me feel suffocated.
00:05:35I walk over,
00:05:37rip down the frames,
00:05:38pull out the plants,
00:05:39and throw them all into the trash.
00:05:41My suitcase lies open on the floor.
00:05:45I pack my belongings piece by piece.
00:05:54Footsteps sound behind me.
00:05:56I don't turn around.
00:06:02He puts his hand on my shoulder,
00:06:04trying to stop me.
00:06:06Felix, we're done.
00:06:07Completely done.
00:06:08I came here today to move out.
00:06:10I shake off his hand
00:06:12and keep packing.
00:06:13And where do you think you're going?
00:06:14You have no family,
00:06:16no place to go.
00:06:17He stands behind me,
00:06:19his voice full of certainty.
00:06:21He thinks I can't leave him.
00:06:23I stop,
00:06:24slowly turn around,
00:06:26and look him straight in the eye.
00:06:28Joanna walks in on high heels.
00:06:30When she sees me,
00:06:32surprise flashes across her face.
00:06:34Felix, what's taking so long?
00:06:36Lindsay?
00:06:37What are you doing here?
00:06:39This is my place.
00:06:40Do I need to explain why I'm here?
00:06:42She lowers her head,
00:06:43putting on an act of innocence and vulnerability.
00:06:46Lindsay, are you upset?
00:06:48I'll apologize if that'll make you feel better.
00:06:51I stare at her hippetical face,
00:06:53my lips slowly curling forward.
00:06:55All right then, why not?
00:06:57I walk toward her step by step.
00:06:59She indinctively steps back.
00:07:03Felix hasn't even reacted yet.
00:07:05I raise my hand and swing it down with all my strength.
00:07:09Smack!
00:07:09The sharp sound of the slap echoes through the room.
00:07:13Ah!
00:07:14Lindsay, how dare you slap me!
00:07:21That's enough!
00:07:23Lindsay, don't go too far!
00:07:25He rushes over,
00:07:26shoves me aside,
00:07:28and pulls Joanna into his arms.
00:07:30I stumble two steps,
00:07:31steady myself,
00:07:32and watch them coldly.
00:07:34This is going too far.
00:07:35All I did was slap her.
00:07:37What you two have done to me is far worse.
00:07:39You're such a shrew!
00:07:40I roll my wrist,
00:07:42my smile turning even colder.
00:07:45I'll take that as a compliment.
00:07:46Since you think so highly of me,
00:07:48should I slap her a few more times?
00:07:50You!
00:07:51Lindsay, you've really changed.
00:07:53He stares at me,
00:07:54his face full of disbelief.
00:07:55Of course I've changed.
00:07:57I must have been out of my mind before.
00:07:59But not anymore.
00:08:00I grab my suitcase,
00:08:02turn around,
00:08:03and leave without a moment's hesitation.
00:08:05I drag my suitcase out of the apartment gate.
00:08:08Felix's voice calls out behind me.
00:08:14Lindsay, stop right there!
00:08:16I don't look back.
00:08:17Not once.
00:08:20At the villa entrance,
00:08:21I take a deep breath and push the door open.
00:08:33Mr. Riley has been waiting for you.
00:08:37Just as he finishes speaking,
00:08:40Colin appears from the end of from the end of the hallway in his wheelchair.
00:08:44He glances at me,
00:08:45his gaze heavy and unreadable.
00:08:47Follow me.
00:08:52I follow him down down the hallway to a bedroom door.
00:08:58You'll stay here tonight,
00:09:00with me.
00:09:01My feet stop.
00:09:03My pupils shrink arply.
00:09:04With me?
00:09:05Did he just say we're sleeping together?
00:09:08My heartbeat explodes in my ears.
00:09:12Before I can recover from the shock,
00:09:14he continues.
00:09:16We're married.
00:09:18Isn't it natural for us to sleep together?
00:09:22He pauses,
00:09:23and his eyes suddenly darken.
00:09:27Or,
00:09:28do you feel uncomfortable because I'm disabled?
00:09:31There's self-mockery in his voice.
00:09:33My heart clenches.
00:09:35No.
00:09:36I don't feel that way at all.
00:09:37I step forward quickly,
00:09:39explaining urgently.
00:09:40We're married now.
00:09:41Sharing a bed is what married couples do.
00:09:43I'm cool with that.
00:09:45Colin looks at me in silence for a moment,
00:09:48then nods.
00:09:50It's getting late.
00:09:51It's getting late.
00:09:52I usually go to bed early.
00:09:53I hope you can adjust to my schedule.
00:09:55That's fine.
00:09:56I'll bring my suitcase in.
00:10:00Wait.
00:10:01Given my physical condition,
00:10:03I've always had the staff help me.
00:10:05But now that you're here,
00:10:06I'd prefer not to trouble anyone else.
00:10:10He wheels himself towards the bathroom.
00:10:13Help me bathe.
00:10:14My eyes widens.
00:10:16I'm completely stunned.
00:10:21How?
00:10:26By helping me undress, of course.
00:10:30My face flushes red.
00:10:33But I grit my teeth
00:10:35and force myself to step forward.
00:10:40He's my husband.
00:10:41This is my duty.
00:10:51I reach out with trembling hands
00:10:53to unbutton his shirt.
00:10:56The buttons are tiny.
00:10:57My palms are sweaty.
00:10:59And I can't get the first one undown.
00:11:01Colin doesn't move.
00:11:03He watches me struggle with amusement.
00:11:07But I don't give up.
00:11:09I take a deep breath
00:11:10and finally undo the first button.
00:11:20The shirt opens,
00:11:22revealing his sculpted chest.
00:11:27My face grows even redder.
00:11:30My hands tremble more violently.
00:11:34Just then,
00:11:34my fingers accidentally brush against his abdomen.
00:11:40Colin's body suddenly tenses up.
00:11:42He grabs my wrist with surprising force.
00:11:46That's enough.
00:11:48Get out.
00:11:50What?
00:11:51Butler!
00:11:52Prepare the room next door for her.
00:11:58He pushes me out of the room
00:12:00and slams the door shut.
00:12:11I'm completely stunned.
00:12:13I turn to look at the butler.
00:12:17What's wrong with him?
00:12:18Why did he just snap like that?
00:12:21Mrs. Riley,
00:12:22Mr. Riley has always been unpredictable.
00:12:25Now that you're staying here,
00:12:27it's best to get used to it.
00:12:29The butler trails out,
00:12:31but I understand.
00:12:34Colin is young,
00:12:35but confined to a wheelchair.
00:12:38Cast aside by his family,
00:12:40his heart must be full of pain.
00:12:46No wonder he keeps testing me.
00:12:48He's been hurt too many times.
00:12:54The more I think about it,
00:12:55the guiltier I feel.
00:12:57He must have misunderstood me
00:13:00and disenjuni at me him ruffed.
00:13:04Tomorrow morning,
00:13:06I must apologize to him.
00:13:11The next morning,
00:13:12I wash up and go downstairs for breakfast.
00:13:15The table is ladden with food.
00:13:19But Colin is knowing that Sabine.
00:13:25Butler,
00:13:26isn't Colin eating?
00:13:27He's been in the study working since last night.
00:13:30None of us dare disturb him.
00:13:35The butler sighs.
00:13:36His face full of worry.
00:13:39He has a chronic stomach condition.
00:13:41But if he refuses to eat,
00:13:43there's not much we can do.
00:13:48I put down my cutlery and stand up.
00:13:53I'll go talk to him.
00:14:03The butler lets me use the kitchen.
00:14:05I want to make something for Colin myself.
00:14:21I bake some cookies,
00:14:23warm a glass of milk,
00:14:24and carry the tray to the studio door.
00:14:27I knock gently on the door.
00:14:29Colin, it's me.
00:14:30I've brought you something to eat.
00:14:32May I come in?
00:14:34There's silence for a few seconds.
00:14:41Come in.
00:14:42I push the door open
00:14:44and immediately see the mountain of documents on his desk.
00:14:47There's silence for a few seconds.
00:14:51You're really buried under all this work?
00:14:53What?
00:14:54Did you think I've just been sitting here doing nothing?
00:14:57No.
00:14:58Of course not.
00:15:03I place the cookies and milk on the desk
00:15:06and push them toward him.
00:15:07I bake these cookies.
00:15:09Please, have one.
00:15:11I wasn't sure about your preferences,
00:15:13so I made a milder flavor.
00:15:17Colin picks up a cookie and takes a bite.
00:15:22I watch him nervously,
00:15:24my heart racing.
00:15:27What do you think?
00:15:28How does it taste?
00:15:32Overly sweet treats
00:15:33aren't really to my liking.
00:15:40Chowington,
00:15:41I'll make a new batch then.
00:15:45I reach for the plate of cookies.
00:15:48That won't be necessary.
00:15:51He picks up the milk and takes a sip.
00:15:55This is fine for breakfast.
00:15:58You can leave now.
00:15:59I bite my lip.
00:16:01I don't leave.
00:16:03Colin,
00:16:04I wanted to apologize for last night.
00:16:06I don't have any hard feelings toward you.
00:16:08It's just that we've only recently met,
00:16:10and I'm still finding my footing.
00:16:11I look into his eyes
00:16:13and speak slowly,
00:16:15deliberately.
00:16:16Colin listens to me in silence for a long time.
00:16:19Do you truly mean that?
00:16:21Absolutely.
00:16:22I committed to marrying you,
00:16:24and I intend to fulfill my needs
00:16:25to the best of my ability.
00:16:27A subtle smile tugs
00:16:29at the corner of Colin's twifts.
00:16:30There's something I haven't shared with you.
00:16:32I was in a car accident
00:16:34when I was young,
00:16:34leaving me disabled.
00:16:36My family has overlooked me.
00:16:38My business attempts have mostly failed.
00:16:41I'm buried under a mountain of debt.
00:16:43He pauses and looks at me.
00:16:47If you feel the need to step back,
00:16:48I won't stand in your way.
00:16:49I freeze,
00:16:50not expecting him to tell me this.
00:16:57How much debt are we talking about?
00:17:00What if I said I'm buried under a hundred million dollars?
00:17:06His tone is casual,
00:17:08as if he's commenting about the weather.
00:17:12Think I misheard.
00:17:13A hundred million?
00:17:19But I quickly calm myself.
00:17:22I take a deep breath.
00:17:33It's fine.
00:17:35We'll tackle it together.
00:17:36Somehow we'll manage.
00:17:38Colin's eyes widen slightly,
00:17:40as if he didn't expect me to say that.
00:17:50And how, exactly,
00:17:52do you propose we manage Lindsay?
00:17:54We're not talking about a mere hundred dollars here.
00:17:58I lower my head and think.
00:18:00Most of my earnings went to Felix.
00:18:04I have little left.
00:18:08But I'm good at design.
00:18:09I can work.
00:18:12Don't fret.
00:18:13I'm on the job hunt.
00:18:14I've been sending out resumes.
00:18:15I'm certain I'll hear back soon.
00:18:19I look up and meet his eyes seriously.
00:18:35No matter the circumstances,
00:18:38I refuse to let you face this alone.
00:18:43I reach out and take his hand that rests on the desk.
00:18:51The moment my fingers brush his skin,
00:18:53his body goes stirrig.
00:18:55He jerks his hand away violently,
00:18:57making me stumble.
00:19:01I stare at him in confusion,
00:19:03not understanding what just happened.
00:19:06A flicker of panic crosses his face,
00:19:09then quickly returns to coldness.
00:19:25He turns his face away,
00:19:28unable to look at me.
00:19:35My heart aches.
00:19:37He's not rejecting me.
00:19:39He's just too insecure.
00:19:44Over the next few days,
00:19:46Colin doesn't appear at the villa at all.
00:19:49I ask the butler where he's gone.
00:19:51He just smiles and says Mr. Riley is very busy.
00:19:59I know he's working hard to pay off that $100 million debt.
00:20:02I shouldn't disturb him.
00:20:08I start sending out resumes and looking for jobs.
00:20:11I need to earn money quickly to help him.
00:20:20Finally, one day,
00:20:21I receive an interview invitation from CR Incorporation.
00:20:27CR Reapparization is a globally known brand,
00:20:30worth over $100 billion.
00:20:33Working there is my dream.
00:20:35On the day of the interview,
00:20:37I drive towards CR Organization.
00:20:40Just as I'm full of anticipation.
00:20:43Crash!
00:20:45A luxury car comes out of nowhere
00:20:47and slams into the back of my car.
00:20:49The huge force throws me forward.
00:20:51I grip the steering wheel tightly to steady myself.
00:20:54I'm frustrated,
00:20:56but I quickly unbuckle my seatbelt and get out.
00:20:58The back of my car is caved in,
00:21:00severely damaged.
00:21:03The young man gets out of the luxury car,
00:21:05his face full of apology.
00:21:08I'm terribly sorry, ma'am.
00:21:10It was completely unintentional.
00:21:12Let me cover the damages.
00:21:14Buy a replacement if necessary.
00:21:44He pulls out a checkbook with practiced ease
00:21:45Since your car is damaged,
00:21:47why not ride with me?
00:21:56Where are you headed?
00:21:57I'll drive you.
00:21:58I narrow my eyes,
00:22:00studying this man,
00:22:02with his carefree smirk.
00:22:04Because of this face,
00:22:05I've encountered too many people with ulterior motives.
00:22:09I'm cautious.
00:22:10No need.
00:22:12My car will manage.
00:22:14It's still working.
00:22:18I turn to leave.
00:22:21He quickly blocks my path.
00:22:25Hold on,
00:22:26please,
00:22:26wait a moment.
00:22:27You haven't taken the check,
00:22:29and my card.
00:22:31Don't forget to reach out later.
00:22:33I coldly dodge his hand.
00:22:38I'd suggest you refrain from any unseemly thoughts.
00:22:43I'm happily married,
00:22:44and my husband and I are deeply in love.
00:22:46I glance at the check in his hand with disdain.
00:22:49Your money doesn't grant you any special privileges here.
00:22:53Leave now,
00:22:54or I will call the police.
00:22:58He's stunned by my fierce attitude,
00:23:00frozen in place.
00:23:04I quickly get back in my car,
00:23:06and drive away without looking back.
00:23:17A woman alone has to act tough,
00:23:20or she'll be taken advantage of.
00:23:26Dustin stands there,
00:23:27watching my car disappear into the distance,
00:23:30a knowing smile spreading across his face.
00:23:34Oh my God,
00:23:35Colin,
00:23:35what a coincidence.
00:23:36Running into your wife on the way to the office.
00:23:39He turns back to the car,
00:23:40looking at the back seat with a teasing grin.
00:23:45Did you hear what she just said?
00:23:54A deep,
00:23:55cold voice comes from the back seat.
00:23:58What did she say?
00:24:00I don't know that there's someone sitting
00:24:02in the back seat of Dustin's car.
00:24:06That someone is my husband,
00:24:10Colin.
00:24:13I arrive at CR Corporation just in time for the interview.
00:24:18Many people have gathered outside the interview venue.
00:24:24Everyone is waiting nervously.
00:24:29Someone whispers that the CEO of CR Corporation might come today.
00:24:34I'm curious.
00:24:35Will the mysterious founder of CR Corporation really show up?
00:24:43Just then,
00:24:44a crowd of people a man escorts duffs us.
00:24:47Good morning, Dustin.
00:24:48The employees respectfully greet him.
00:24:51Good morning, Dustin.
00:24:52I instinctively look over
00:24:54and freeze completely.
00:24:58The man they call CEO is the same man who crashed into my car,
00:25:02Dustin.
00:25:05I quickly turn my face away and hide in a corner.
00:25:08Not wanting him to notice me.
00:25:11How can he be the CEO of CR Corporation?
00:25:14The mysterious founder?
00:25:18I have a hard time accepting this.
00:25:21Dustin seems so frivolous and unreliable.
00:25:25But the whispers around me help me understand.
00:25:28It turns out Dustin is just the acting CEO.
00:25:31The mysterious founder is someone else who never shows his face.
00:25:40I breathe a quiet sigh of relief.
00:25:43Thank goodness the founder isn't him.
00:25:47I'm still lost in thought
00:25:49when a sharp, sarcastic voice comes from nearby.
00:26:01Well, well, what have we here?
00:26:03Is CR really open to just anyone for interviews now?
00:26:07I turn and see a well-dressed woman looking at me with contempt.
00:26:11Several people are with her,
00:26:13all echo-going her mockery.
00:26:15Who even is she?
00:26:16Does she have any work to her name?
00:26:18Probably fresh out of school.
00:26:20How does someone like here have the guts to show up here?
00:26:23I look at her smug face and sneer inwardly.
00:26:28So, I take it you're all famous then?
00:26:40New to the design world and already this cluteless?
00:26:43Do you even follow the industry?
00:26:46Let me introduce you.
00:26:48This is Cynthia Keller
00:26:50from the esteemed Keller family
00:26:52adored by hundreds of thousands online.
00:26:57I look at her smug face
00:26:58and can't help but want to laugh.
00:27:00To prepare for today's interview,
00:27:02I went through all the design industry news
00:27:04in the past few years.
00:27:06Refuse to pay Ghostwriter.
00:27:08I know exactly who these people are.
00:27:11So, you're Cynthia Keller?
00:27:14Cynthia lifts her chin proudly,
00:27:16waiting for me to admire her.
00:27:19I've heard your name.
00:27:21like how your thesis was actually written
00:27:23by a ghost writer
00:27:24and how it got exposed
00:27:26when you refused to pay them.
00:27:29Is that true?
00:27:30Cynthia's face instantly changes.
00:27:33What the hell are you saying?
00:27:35I was framed!
00:27:36I smile and turn to her followers.
00:27:38And you, Mrs. Rodriguez?
00:27:40Your latest project was involved in a pleitorium scandal.
00:27:44The judgment has been passed.
00:27:46How did you get an interview here?
00:27:48That woman's face goes stiff.
00:27:50I turn to another designer.
00:27:53Mrs. Jimenez,
00:27:54I remember you boasted about winning a design award.
00:27:56Turns out,
00:27:57it could be bought.
00:27:58How much did you pay?
00:28:01One by one,
00:28:03I expose their dirty laundry.
00:28:08Their faces flush red,
00:28:10and they slink away in shame.
00:28:23After dealing with those annoying designers,
00:28:26the interview finally began.
00:28:31I picked up my pen,
00:28:33and Colin's image appeared in my mind.
00:28:40He sat in his wheelchair in a wedding suit,
00:28:43calm and demanding.
00:28:47I smiled and began sketching with practiced ease.
00:28:55Time ticks by.
00:28:57I'm completely absorbed in my design.
00:29:02Forgetting everything around me.
00:29:08Half an hour later,
00:29:10Cynthia stands up confidently,
00:29:12hands in her design.
00:29:14The others are shocked,
00:29:16and start getting anxious.
00:29:17What do I do?
00:29:18I still have so much left to scan it.
00:29:23I'm doomed.
00:29:26Completely doomed.
00:29:27The girl in blue was in despair.
00:29:30She felt completely doomed.
00:29:32But I never look up.
00:29:34I focus on my drawing.
00:29:36Finally,
00:29:37with only one minute left,
00:29:38I finished.
00:29:40I sign my name,
00:29:41and hand in my design.
00:29:44After all the designers submit their work,
00:29:46the interviewers begin selecting the results.
00:29:51I wait outside,
00:29:52nervous and hopeful.
00:30:00Lindsay!
00:30:01What took you so long?
00:30:03Did they throw you out because you couldn't finish in time?
00:30:05I bet she just scribbled something last minute.
00:30:10I frown and coldly glance at them.
00:30:17Shut up.
00:30:18You're all too loud.
00:30:23Then I close my eyes,
00:30:25not wasting time on them further.
00:30:29After what feels like a long time,
00:30:32the interviewers finally come out.
00:30:34I open my eyes,
00:30:36and my heart starts racing.
00:30:38The interviewer scans the crowd
00:30:41and smiles as he announces the result.
00:30:43After careful consideration,
00:30:45we have selected Lindsay Razie for the position.
00:30:47Congratulations, Lindsay.
00:30:52I widen my eyes in disbelief.
00:30:54Me?
00:30:55Really me?
00:30:56What?
00:30:57No way!
00:30:59Cynthia's face turns crimson.
00:31:01She's shaking with rage.
00:31:02I stand up,
00:31:04unable to stop the smile spreading across my face.
00:31:07The interviewer walks over
00:31:08and congratulates me on passing.
00:31:11Thank you.
00:31:13Thank you so much.
00:31:15I really got into my dream company.
00:31:17I can finally help Colin pay off his debt.
00:31:21The other designers look at me in disbelief.
00:31:23There has to be a mistake!
00:31:25Lindsay must have cheated!
00:31:26I demand a review!
00:31:32Cynthia Keller,
00:31:33are you questioning our ability to evaluate talent?
00:31:36Perhaps you should take my job instead.
00:31:41Cynthia is choked into silence
00:31:43and dares not say another word.
00:31:49After the interview,
00:31:51I walk out of CR organization's building
00:31:53in higher periods.
00:31:55I want to share this good news with Colin right away.
00:31:58But as soon as I step outside,
00:32:00I see Cynthia waiting for me.
00:32:03Lindsay,
00:32:03don't get too cocky.
00:32:05Just wait.
00:32:06I'll expose your true colors.
00:32:08She grits out these words,
00:32:10then turns and storms off.
00:32:12I'm baffled,
00:32:12but I just find it amusing.
00:32:14Whatever.
00:32:15She's not worth my time.
00:32:17Right now,
00:32:18I just want to go home
00:32:19and see Colin.
00:32:30After returning to the villa,
00:32:31I ask the butler right away.
00:32:34Colin will be coming home today.
00:32:35Mr. Riley said he'll be back for dinner tonight.
00:32:37My heart leaps with joy.
00:32:39After a moment's thought,
00:32:40I say I'll prepare dinner myself.
00:32:41Just have two staff members help me.
00:32:43I want to cook for him myself
00:32:44to give him a surprise.
00:32:51By the time the table is set with food,
00:32:54night has fallen.
00:32:55I wash my hands
00:32:56and wait for him on the living room sofa.
00:32:58But hours pass
00:32:59and there's still no sign of him
00:33:01at the villa entrance.
00:33:02Mrs. Riley,
00:33:03it's getting late.
00:33:04Perhaps you should eat something first.
00:33:05Mr. Riley is probably still busy.
00:33:07I want to wait for him.
00:33:08We'll eat together.
00:33:08So he gives up.
00:33:11Before I know it,
00:33:13drowsiness overtakes me
00:33:14and I fall asleep on the sofa.
00:33:34Deep into the night,
00:33:36the living room is very quiet.
00:33:38In a daze,
00:33:39I hear the sound of wheelchair wheels
00:33:41rolling across the floor.
00:33:44Someone stops in front of me
00:33:45and looks at me for a long time.
00:33:47Why is she sleeping here?
00:33:48Mrs. Riley cooked dinner herself
00:33:50and waited here for you.
00:33:53Didn't anyone tell her?
00:33:54I'm busy.
00:33:55I don't need anyone waiting for me.
00:33:58Unnecessary.
00:33:59His voice sounds impatient,
00:34:00but I sense something else beneath it.
00:34:03I slowly open my eyes
00:34:05and look at him,
00:34:06groggily.
00:34:06Colin, you're finally back!
00:34:08I smile and pull off the blanket covering me.
00:34:13I have something important to tell you.
00:34:19What important thing?
00:34:22I stand up,
00:34:23but don't end directly.
00:34:28It's late.
00:34:29Let's first eat.
00:34:30You must be starving
00:34:31after working some long.
00:34:32Fine.
00:34:33I expect him to refuse,
00:34:35but he looks at me and nods.
00:34:37I lead him to the dining table.
00:34:39He's clearly taken aback.
00:34:41Looking at the feast,
00:34:43along with the candles.
00:34:46So,
00:34:47how's my candlelit dinner?
00:34:49Up to standard?
00:34:50Why go to all this trouble?
00:34:52For romance.
00:34:53We're married.
00:34:54Isn't it natural to do something
00:34:55a little special once in a while?
00:34:57The candlelight flickers,
00:34:59casting shadows across his face.
00:35:02I look at him,
00:35:03and my heart suddenly feels a little nervous.
00:35:12Colin suddenly picks up the whiskey
00:35:14and downs it in one dough.
00:35:16You haven't eaten yet.
00:35:17Have some food before drinking.
00:35:19I put food in his plate.
00:35:22I remember you prefer lighter flavors,
00:35:25not too sweet.
00:35:26Try it and see if you like it.
00:35:34Hmm.
00:35:35How is it?
00:35:36Hmm.
00:35:37Not bad.
00:35:41After he's had a few bites,
00:35:43I finally can't hold back.
00:35:45Oh,
00:35:45I have good news to tell you.
00:35:49He slows his chewing.
00:35:50I found a job.
00:35:52I passed the interview today,
00:35:54and I start tomorrow.
00:35:55The salary is good.
00:35:57From now on,
00:35:58I can help share the burden with you.
00:35:59A flicker of surprise crosses his eyes.
00:36:06He stares at me for a long time,
00:36:09as if trying to figure something out.
00:36:11But I don't notice the change in his expression.
00:36:14I'm too happy.
00:36:16I follow his lead
00:36:17and gulp down the whiskey in my glass.
00:36:19The next belt,
00:36:20the fiery yitti makes me cough.
00:36:23Why is it so strong?
00:36:26You can't drink?
00:36:28No,
00:36:29I don't usually drink.
00:36:30But it's fine.
00:36:31Tonight,
00:36:31we drink until we drop.
00:36:36That's enough.
00:36:37If you don't like it,
00:36:38don't force yourself.
00:36:44Is he...
00:36:45concerned about me?
00:36:49I'm not forcing myself.
00:36:51I'm so happy today.
00:36:52That's why I want to drink and celebrate.
00:36:57Glances at me
00:36:58and suddenly freezes.
00:36:59I don't know what I look like right now,
00:37:01but my face feels like it's on fire.
00:37:03There are many ways to celebrate.
00:37:05You don't have to drink.
00:37:06No!
00:37:06I paid good money for it.
00:37:08I can't waste it.
00:37:09I stare at him
00:37:10and notice his face has...
00:37:14Huh?
00:37:15Why are there two of you?
00:37:19That's my glass!
00:37:20Give it back!
00:37:23I stand up to grab it,
00:37:24but my foot catches
00:37:25and I fall toward him.
00:37:31I gasp and fall into his arms.
00:37:34He catches me securely.
00:37:36My hand lands somewhere
00:37:38and the feeling beneath my palm is strange.
00:37:45Hmm...
00:37:46Colin?
00:37:47What are you hiding in your pants?
00:37:50His body tenses instantly.
00:37:55Don't touch me.
00:38:01My arm knocks into the glass,
00:38:03spilling liquid all over him.
00:38:08I blink blankly,
00:38:10completely lost.
00:38:12What do you mean?
00:38:14You won't let me get close to you?
00:38:16Is that how you treat me?
00:38:21We're married!
00:38:23Why should I stay away from you?
00:38:25I look at his soaked shirt
00:38:27and say grungly,
00:38:30Your shirt is dirty.
00:38:31It must be hard for you to manage alone.
00:38:34Let me help you bathe.
00:38:35I reach to take off his shirt.
00:38:37Stop!
00:38:38He grabs my wrist hard.
00:38:41Colin, you're hurting me!
00:38:43He immediately lets go.
00:38:46I take the chance
00:38:47to grab his collar
00:38:48and try to pull it open.
00:39:03The next morning,
00:39:04my phone wakes me up.
00:39:08My head hurts
00:39:09like it's splitting open.
00:39:11I sit up abruptly
00:39:13and see the alarm label
00:39:14first day of work.
00:39:16Oh no!
00:39:17I'm starting my new job today!
00:39:19I rush into the bathroom,
00:39:21shower quickly,
00:39:21and hurry downstairs.
00:39:33Colin is already at the table.
00:39:36Colin,
00:39:37when did you come home last night?
00:39:40His face dust darkens.
00:39:44Don't you remember
00:39:45what happened last night?
00:39:46I shake my head blankly.
00:39:48I can't remember anything
00:39:49from last night.
00:39:50What happened?
00:39:51Did I do something wrong?
00:39:56He takes a deep breath
00:39:58and says nothing.
00:39:59Colin's expression
00:40:00grows darker.
00:40:02I panic a little
00:40:03and press him.
00:40:07What happened?
00:40:09I must have slept too long.
00:40:10I really can't remember.
00:40:12He takes another deep breath,
00:40:14as if holding something back.
00:40:16Nothing.
00:40:17I have work to do.
00:40:19He turns his wheelchair
00:40:20and heads to the study
00:40:21without looking back.
00:40:23I stare blankly
00:40:24at his back,
00:40:25completely baffered.
00:40:27Last night happened.
00:40:29Why does it
00:40:30he look so upset?
00:40:32But I don't time to think.
00:40:34I glance at the shrins
00:40:35and I taw
00:40:36though pack up too.
00:40:39Colin seems unhappy.
00:40:41Maybe I'll buy him
00:40:42a gift after work
00:40:43to cheer him up.
00:40:44After joining
00:40:45CR Consideration,
00:40:46I'm assigned
00:40:47to the Fashion Design Department.
00:40:49On my first day,
00:40:50I walk into the office
00:40:51and see a familiar figure.
00:40:54Cynthia?
00:40:55Why is she here?
00:40:57Didn't they say
00:40:58only one person
00:40:59would be hired?
00:41:01Lindsay,
00:41:02we meet again.
00:41:03Looking forward
00:41:04to working with you.
00:41:05Her voice is full
00:41:06smugness and privation.
00:41:08Supervisor Cohen
00:41:09walks over,
00:41:10warmly greeting Cynthia
00:41:11while being cold to eye.
00:41:14Lindsay doesn't
00:41:15have much experience.
00:41:16She can help with errands
00:41:18like getting coffee
00:41:19for everyone.
00:41:20I frown,
00:41:21feeling resentful inside.
00:41:26Mr. Fuller,
00:41:27this isn't fair.
00:41:28Why does Cynthia
00:41:30get a project
00:41:30while I'm stuck
00:41:31with basic tasks?
00:41:33Cynthia has competed
00:41:34in numerous design contests.
00:41:36She's far more
00:41:37experienced than you.
00:41:39As a newcomer,
00:41:40how dare you question me?
00:41:41He glares at me coldly.
00:41:43Lindsay,
00:41:44if you keep
00:41:45challenging my decisions,
00:41:47I'll have to reconsider
00:41:48whether you're even fit
00:41:49to pass the probation period.
00:41:51I grit my teeth
00:41:52and swallow my frustration.
00:41:55Understood.
00:42:00Cynthia smirks
00:42:02triumphantly beside me.
00:42:09Now that I think about it,
00:42:11a coffee run
00:42:12sounds perfect.
00:42:13Lindsay,
00:42:14go buy some
00:42:14for everyone.
00:42:15She slaps some money
00:42:17onto my desk,
00:42:18her tone arrogant.
00:42:19Make sure to get
00:42:20everyone's order right.
00:42:21Don't mess it up.
00:42:23I say nothing.
00:42:25I pick up a notebook
00:42:26and go ask each colleague
00:42:27for their order.
00:42:29Cynthia deliberately
00:42:30makes things difficult for me,
00:42:32listing many picky demands.
00:42:37One third milk,
00:42:38six ice cubes,
00:42:39no sugar.
00:42:40Got it?
00:42:42Got it.
00:42:46I jot it down expressionlessly
00:42:48and leave the company.
00:43:05Half an hour later,
00:43:07I return with the coffee
00:43:08and hand it out to everyone.
00:43:12When I hand it to Cynthia,
00:43:14she suddenly tilts
00:43:16the cup on purpose.
00:43:18Hot coffee spills
00:43:20all over me.
00:43:21Oops!
00:43:21My hand slipped.
00:43:23Are you okay?
00:43:26I look down
00:43:27at my soaked clothes,
00:43:29then slowly lift my head.
00:43:31It's fine.
00:43:34Everyone thinks
00:43:35I'm going to let go.
00:43:39But the next second,
00:43:40I grab every coffee cup
00:43:42on the table
00:43:42and overturn them
00:43:43onto Cynthia's head.
00:43:46Ah!
00:43:47Lindsay!
00:43:54Cold coffee streams down
00:43:56Cynthia's hair,
00:43:57soaking her completely.
00:43:59Are you insane?
00:44:01How dare you do this to me?
00:44:03I look at her expressionlessly.
00:44:04I was just as shocked
00:44:06when my own clothes were splashed.
00:44:08My hand slipped too.
00:44:10What's the problem?
00:44:14You...
00:44:14Her face turns crimson.
00:44:16She's shaking with rage.
00:44:20The surrounding colleagues
00:44:21are stunned.
00:44:22No one dares to speak.
00:44:23I turn and walk back
00:44:25to my desk,
00:44:26feeling no guilt at all.
00:44:27After that day,
00:44:29the colleagues in the office
00:44:30dare not provoke me anymore.
00:44:32Right after lunch break,
00:44:33Cohen calls me into his office.
00:44:35Lindsay,
00:44:36an important client
00:44:37is coming soon
00:44:37and I need to greet them personally.
00:44:39Deliver these documents
00:44:40to the conference room
00:44:41on the 17th floor.
00:44:42He shoves a stack of papers
00:44:43into my arms
00:44:44and hurries off.
00:44:47I take the elevator
00:44:49to the 17th floor
00:44:50with the documents,
00:44:51but freeze at the door
00:44:52of a conference room.
00:44:55Inside,
00:44:56there's a familiar face.
00:44:57Colin,
00:44:59why isn't he in a wheelchair?
00:45:01I step forward
00:45:02intensively.
00:45:03A voice comes from behind.
00:45:05I turn and see
00:45:06a colleague in glasses.
00:45:08Who are you?
00:45:10Um,
00:45:10I'm here to deliver documents.
00:45:12Is that the main
00:45:13conference room over there?
00:45:14That's the CEO's conference room.
00:45:16Stay away if you're not an exec.
00:45:17After my colleague
00:45:18urges me to hurry,
00:45:19I deliver the documents
00:45:20with lingering doubts.
00:45:21But back at my desk,
00:45:23those doubts won't go away.
00:45:25Could that man be Colin?
00:45:26Impossible.
00:45:27He's in a wheelchair.
00:45:29How could he be standing
00:45:30in CR warperation?
00:45:32Maybe
00:45:32I just saw wrong?
00:45:36I take out my phone
00:45:38and send Colin a message.
00:45:41I wait a long time.
00:45:42No reply.
00:45:44Just as I'm about
00:45:45to put it down,
00:45:46the phone rings.
00:45:49I walk to a quiet spot
00:45:50outside to answer.
00:45:53Hello?
00:45:54What is it?
00:45:56Nothing.
00:45:57Just asking.
00:45:58Just asking?
00:45:59Are you sure?
00:46:01I'm just afraid
00:46:02you'll disappear for days again.
00:46:04Lindsay,
00:46:05are you saying you miss me?
00:46:07That's not what I meant.
00:46:08My face flushes instantly.
00:46:10Don't worry.
00:46:11For now,
00:46:11I'll be at home
00:46:12waiting for you.
00:46:13These words
00:46:14make my scene skip a beat.
00:46:15Okay.
00:46:16After hanging up,
00:46:17I can't stop smiling.
00:46:19That profile.
00:46:20I probably
00:46:21just imagined it.
00:46:27After work,
00:46:28I go to the mall
00:46:29to buy him a gift
00:46:30to cheer him up.
00:46:34Ma'am,
00:46:35what are you looking for?
00:46:38something for my husband.
00:46:40I pick out a burgundy outfit.
00:46:42Just as I'm about to pay,
00:46:43an annoying voice
00:46:45comes from behind.
00:46:50Lindsay?
00:46:51What a coincidence.
00:46:53I turn around
00:46:54and see Joanna
00:46:55and Felix.
00:46:57What terrible luck.
00:47:00Lindsay,
00:47:01don't be mad.
00:47:01Let's have a meal together.
00:47:03Don't touch me.
00:47:04I have nothing to say to you.
00:47:06I turn to leave.
00:47:07But Joanna won't let me go.
00:47:10Lindsay,
00:47:10why are you still angry?
00:47:12We've been friends
00:47:12for so many years.
00:47:16Don't.
00:47:17Spare me the act.
00:47:18You're giving me goosebumps.
00:47:20Joanna's face freezes
00:47:21for a moment.
00:47:22Then she looks at Felix
00:47:23with feigned hurt.
00:47:25Lindsay,
00:47:25Joanna means no harm.
00:47:27Why are you so aggressive?
00:47:28Fine.
00:47:29She means no harm.
00:47:30I do.
00:47:31Stay away from me.
00:47:32work is already exhausting.
00:47:33You!
00:47:34Joanna notices
00:47:35the shopping bag
00:47:36in my hand
00:47:37and smirks.
00:47:38Lindsay,
00:47:38what did you buy?
00:47:39For Felix?
00:47:40You're so thoughtful.
00:47:41Felix's expression softens
00:47:43and he smirks smugly.
00:47:44Lindsay,
00:47:45I knew you remembered
00:47:46my birthday.
00:47:46I forgive your tantrum.
00:47:47Come back with me.
00:47:48He reaches for the bag.
00:47:50I dodge.
00:47:51Felix,
00:47:52are you an idiot?
00:47:53Can't you understand
00:47:54plain speech?
00:47:56Lindsay,
00:47:57how long are you going
00:47:58to keep throwing a fit?
00:48:00I told you long ago
00:48:01we're done.
00:48:02How long will you
00:48:03keep pestering me?
00:48:04Lindsay,
00:48:05why pretend?
00:48:06Everyone knows
00:48:06how much you love Felix.
00:48:08You can't just stop.
00:48:10Joanna,
00:48:10who asked you?
00:48:11Was my slap
00:48:13not enough of a lesson?
00:48:14I raise my hand.
00:48:15Joanna screams
00:48:16and steps back.
00:48:19Enough!
00:48:19Lindsay,
00:48:20have you lost your mind?
00:48:22Yes,
00:48:23I'm crazy.
00:48:25Want one too?
00:48:26Felix flinches,
00:48:27then forces himself
00:48:28to stand in front of Joanna.
00:48:30You're buying men's clothes here.
00:48:32If not for me,
00:48:33who else?
00:48:34Stop this nonsense.
00:48:35Let's go home.
00:48:37Can't I buy them
00:48:38for my husband?
00:48:39And I'm your future husband.
00:48:41I promise to give you
00:48:42a bigger wedding later.
00:48:45Felix,
00:48:45stop deluding yourself.
00:48:47Who said I was talking
00:48:48about you?
00:48:50Lindsay,
00:48:51you're married
00:48:52to someone else?
00:48:53How is that possible?
00:48:55Lindsay,
00:48:55there's a limit
00:48:57to lying.
00:48:57Everyone knows
00:48:58you'll only marry me.
00:49:00I'm speechless.
00:49:01I check the time.
00:49:02It's already late.
00:49:05Get out of my way.
00:49:07I try to step around him,
00:49:08but Felix blocks me.
00:49:11Lindsay,
00:49:11my patience is running out.
00:49:14You're coming home
00:49:14with me today.
00:49:16Move.
00:49:17Lindsay,
00:49:18you're just trying
00:49:18to provoke me, right?
00:49:20Fine.
00:49:20You win.
00:49:21Now come back with me.
00:49:23He reaches for me.
00:49:24Don't touch me.
00:49:26I'll call the police
00:49:27if you keep this up.
00:49:32The crowd around us
00:49:34gets excited.
00:49:35Is this guy
00:49:36trying to harass her?
00:49:37Looks like he'd be abusive.
00:49:38Don't talk nonsense.
00:49:41She's my girlfriend.
00:49:42He's lying.
00:49:43I have a husband.
00:49:45This man is just
00:49:46trying to bully me
00:49:47because I'm alone.
00:49:48The crowd starts
00:49:49condemning Felix.
00:49:50his face turns red
00:49:52with anger.
00:49:53Everyone,
00:49:53you're mistaken.
00:49:54They're not broken up.
00:49:56Miss,
00:49:56you came here with him
00:49:57to block me.
00:49:58What's your relationship?
00:50:00Are you trying to make me
00:50:00look like the other woman
00:50:01or are you the other woman yourself?
00:50:03The crowd immediately
00:50:04starts gossiping.
00:50:05So this woman
00:50:06is the other woman.
00:50:08He cheated first.
00:50:09Now he's back begging
00:50:09for forgiveness.
00:50:12Joanna is furious
00:50:14but can't argue
00:50:15with so many people.
00:50:17Someone calls
00:50:17the mall security.
00:50:19These two blocking her?
00:50:20Get out of here.
00:50:21She's my girlfriend.
00:50:23He's lying.
00:50:24I don't even know them.
00:50:26Her security kicks Felix.
00:50:32Amid the uproar,
00:50:34security kicks Felix
00:50:36and Joanna
00:50:36out of the mall.
00:50:41Watching them slink away,
00:50:43I finally breathe
00:50:44a sigh of relief.
00:50:46A few kind elders
00:50:47give me advice,
00:50:48young lady.
00:50:49Don't forgive that jerk.
00:50:51Next time,
00:50:51make sure you find
00:50:52some with good character.
00:50:53Thank you.
00:50:55I will.
00:50:56After the crowd disperses,
00:50:58I feel a warmth
00:51:00in my heart.
00:51:01Growing up,
00:51:02no one ever thinks
00:51:03things like that to me.
00:51:05I wasted five years
00:51:06on Felix.
00:51:08Now I'm finally awake.
00:51:10Just then,
00:51:10my phone rings.
00:51:13It's Colin.
00:51:16It's late.
00:51:18Why aren't you home yet?
00:51:20I'm at the mall.
00:51:21Something came up.
00:51:23I'm heading back now.
00:51:25Send me the address.
00:51:27I'll send a car.
00:51:29Don't bother.
00:51:30I'll take the bus.
00:51:32It's dark.
00:51:34It's not safe
00:51:35for you alone.
00:51:36I look outside.
00:51:37It's dark.
00:51:38Warmth spreads
00:51:40through my heart.
00:51:41Okay.
00:51:45Shortly after hanging up,
00:51:47Colin texts
00:51:48that the car has arrived.
00:51:49I walk out of the mall
00:51:51and see a luxury car
00:51:52parked by the road.
00:51:53A few girls
00:51:54are excitedly gossiping.
00:51:56That man in the car
00:51:57is so handsome!
00:51:58How much
00:51:59does this car cost?
00:52:00I look closer.
00:52:01Isn't that Colin's car?
00:52:03I walk over
00:52:05and gently tap
00:52:06the back window.
00:52:09The door opens
00:52:10and Colin
00:52:11is sitting inside.
00:52:14I quickly get in
00:52:15and close the door,
00:52:17blocking out the noise.
00:52:18He has a laptop
00:52:20on his lap,
00:52:21working.
00:52:23Drive.
00:52:24The car starts.
00:52:25I can't help
00:52:26staring at his profile.
00:52:27Why do you keep
00:52:27staring at me?
00:52:28I'm just curious.
00:52:29Why did you come yourself?
00:52:31I thought you'd
00:52:32just send the driver.
00:52:35Is there a problem
00:52:36with me picking up my wife?
00:52:38His words make
00:52:39make my heart flutter.
00:52:41Oh,
00:52:42I got you a gift.
00:52:46Try it on at home.
00:52:49Hmm.
00:52:49Got it.
00:52:55The car drives
00:52:56through the night.
00:52:57I think about
00:52:58running into Felix
00:52:59at the mall
00:53:00and feel I should
00:53:01tell Colin.
00:53:03Colin,
00:53:04before I finish,
00:53:05the car suddenly
00:53:06slams to a halt.
00:53:07The momentum
00:53:07throws me forward.
00:53:09I gasp in fear.
00:53:10The next second,
00:53:11a strong arm
00:53:12wraps around my waist,
00:53:14pulling me securely
00:53:15into an embrace.
00:53:16Careful.
00:53:17My mind goes blank.
00:53:18All I can smell
00:53:19is the cold,
00:53:20crisp scent from him.
00:53:22Like ice and snow
00:53:23in a mountain forest.
00:53:25Cold,
00:53:26yet reassuring.
00:53:28My heartbeat
00:53:29pounds in my ears.
00:53:31Sir,
00:53:32a stray cat ran out.
00:53:33We almost hit it.
00:53:35Good thing no one
00:53:36got hurt.
00:53:36Drive on.
00:53:39The car starts
00:53:40moving again.
00:53:42Silence
00:53:43fills the cabin
00:53:43for a moment.
00:53:46Lindsay,
00:53:47how much longer
00:53:48are you going to
00:53:49stay in my arms?
00:53:52I finally snap out of it
00:53:54and quickly sit up
00:53:55straight,
00:53:56my face burning.
00:53:57I stammer,
00:53:58not knowing what to say.
00:54:00So I compliment
00:54:01the driver.
00:54:02You're such a good driver.
00:54:04Good thing you didn't
00:54:05hit the cat.
00:54:06Thank you, ma'am.
00:54:08Focus on the road.
00:54:10I shyly turn my face away,
00:54:12pretending to look
00:54:13out the window.
00:54:15Now you're shy?
00:54:17You weren't like
00:54:18this last night.
00:54:19The driver silently
00:54:20raises the partition.
00:54:24What happened last night?
00:54:26You seemed upset
00:54:27this morning.
00:54:28Did I do something wrong?
00:54:30I really don't remember.
00:54:33You forgot that you
00:54:34took my clothes off
00:54:35forcily?
00:54:39Impressive.
00:54:41Me?
00:54:41Took your clothes off?
00:54:43No way!
00:54:44I would never do that!
00:54:51Oh?
00:54:52So you're saying
00:54:53I'm lying?
00:54:54No.
00:54:54I really don't remember.
00:54:56Someone once told me
00:54:57I'm not good with alcohol.
00:54:58Maybe
00:54:59I really did lose control.
00:55:03Colin's expression
00:55:04darkens even more.
00:55:06So you've gotten drunk
00:55:07and acted like that?
00:55:09in front of others, too?
00:55:12I drank with my
00:55:13roommates before,
00:55:14but they never
00:55:14let me drink again.
00:55:16But I definitely
00:55:17didn't undress them.
00:55:20Colin stares at me
00:55:21in silence,
00:55:22his gaze heavy.
00:55:23I don't know what
00:55:24I said to upset him
00:55:25more,
00:55:26so I cautiously ask,
00:55:28What's wrong?
00:55:32You're not allowed
00:55:33to drink in front
00:55:34of anyone else
00:55:35from now on.
00:55:36His tone is firm.
00:55:39I feel a little
00:55:40intimidated
00:55:41and nod
00:55:42obediently.
00:55:44Okay.
00:55:46I understand.
00:55:48Back at the villa.
00:55:52The driver helps
00:55:53Colin into his
00:55:54wheelchair.
00:55:55I quickly
00:55:55step forward.
00:55:58Let me push you in.
00:56:00No need.
00:56:01He glances
00:56:01at the driver,
00:56:02who pushes him
00:56:04towards the study.
00:56:04It's late.
00:56:06Go eat.
00:56:07I have work to do.
00:56:11I stand there
00:56:12blankly,
00:56:13watching his figure
00:56:15disappear.
00:56:15The butler
00:56:16walks over.
00:56:17Mrs. Riley,
00:56:19it's cold out here.
00:56:20Please come inside.
00:56:21I follow him inside
00:56:23and can't help
00:56:24asking,
00:56:24What happened
00:56:25last night?
00:56:26Did I do something
00:56:27to upset him?
00:56:28He won't tell me,
00:56:30and I don't know
00:56:30how to apologize.
00:56:32Mrs. Riley,
00:56:32you're overthinking it.
00:56:34If you truly
00:56:35upset him,
00:56:36he wouldn't act
00:56:36this way.
00:56:40The butler pauses
00:56:41and recalls
00:56:42an old story.
00:56:43Once,
00:56:44at a banquet,
00:56:45a drunk man
00:56:46came up to provoke
00:56:47Mr. Riley.
00:56:48What did he say?
00:56:49He mocked his legs
00:56:50and poured an entire
00:56:51bottle of wine on him,
00:56:53demanding him
00:56:53beg for mercy
00:56:54on his knees.
00:56:56My heart
00:56:56clenches tightly.
00:56:58What happened next?
00:57:01What did Colin do?
00:57:03Mr. Riley crippled
00:57:05that man's limbs.
00:57:07After that,
00:57:08the Riley family
00:57:09kicked him out.
00:57:10I shiver,
00:57:12not from fear
00:57:13of Colin,
00:57:13but from pain
00:57:14for him.
00:57:15He's been hurt
00:57:16so many times.
00:57:18No wonder
00:57:18he keeps testing me.
00:57:20No wonder
00:57:20he's so insecure.
00:57:22So what did I do
00:57:23last night?
00:57:24How can I make
00:57:25him feel better?
00:57:26Mr. Riley came
00:57:27to pick you up
00:57:27himself today.
00:57:28That means
00:57:29he doesn't
00:57:30dislike you.
00:57:31Mr. Riley,
00:57:33perhaps you should
00:57:33take the initiative.
00:57:34I look down
00:57:35at the shopping bag
00:57:36in my hand.
00:57:37Right.
00:57:38I haven't let him
00:57:38try up the clothes yet.
00:57:39I carry the bag
00:57:40to the study door.
00:57:44Just as I'm
00:57:45about to knock,
00:57:45I hear voices inside.
00:57:48Sir,
00:57:49the proposals
00:57:49for this season
00:57:50are ready.
00:57:51Which ones
00:57:52do you approve?
00:57:53All garbage.
00:57:55Send them all
00:57:55back to redo.
00:57:57We might not
00:57:57have enough time.
00:57:58Is CR Corporation
00:58:00hiring only incompetents?
00:58:02If they can't finish,
00:58:03fire them.
00:58:04My eyes widens
00:58:05in shock.
00:58:06Did Colin
00:58:07just say,
00:58:08CR Corporation?
00:58:10Before I can think
00:58:11further,
00:58:12the study door
00:58:13suddenly opens.
00:58:14Mrs. Riley?
00:58:17Colin sees me too,
00:58:19his expression
00:58:20shifting slightly.
00:58:23Why are you here?
00:58:25I feel a little
00:58:26anxious
00:58:26and hold up
00:58:27the bag.
00:58:31I bought you
00:58:32something.
00:58:33Remember?
00:58:35Come in.
00:58:36I close the door
00:58:37and walk over
00:58:38to him.
00:58:41When did you
00:58:42get here?
00:58:43How much
00:58:44did you hear?
00:58:45Not long.
00:58:46I heard you
00:58:47mention CR Corporation.
00:58:49Do you do
00:58:49business with them?
00:58:51Colin doesn't
00:58:52answer directly.
00:58:53He asks back.
00:58:55What do you think?
00:58:57I blinks.
00:58:59Could he be
00:58:59some high-ranking
00:59:00exec at CR?
00:59:01No,
00:59:02that's impossible.
00:59:05If he had
00:59:06that kind of power,
00:59:07why would his bride
00:59:08have abandoned him?
00:59:10Why would the Riley
00:59:11family have cast him out?
00:59:14you said you owe
00:59:15a hundred million.
00:59:17Is that related
00:59:18with CR Corporation?
00:59:19Something like that.
00:59:21I let out
00:59:22a bitter laugh.
00:59:23So we're both
00:59:24working for
00:59:25CR Corporation.
00:59:30But after a moment
00:59:31of frustration,
00:59:33I perm up again.
00:59:37Let's not think
00:59:38about that.
00:59:39try on the clothes
00:59:41I bought you.
00:59:42I place the bag
00:59:43on his lap.
00:59:47Colin takes out
00:59:48the burgundy outfit
00:59:49and raises an eyebrow.
00:59:55Put it on.
00:59:57Let's see.
00:59:59He doesn't move.
01:00:02What's wrong?
01:00:04Don't you like it?
01:00:06I need to change.
01:00:08Are you planning
01:00:09to stand there
01:00:10and watch?
01:00:11My face flushes.
01:00:13I quickly turn around.
01:00:15I'll step out.
01:00:17Call me when you're done.
01:00:19Wait.
01:00:21I meant come here
01:00:22and help me.
01:00:23I freeze,
01:00:24remembering last time
01:00:26when he threw me out
01:00:26while helping him undress.
01:00:30You're not going
01:00:31to get mad
01:00:34and kick me out again,
01:00:35are you?
01:00:37So you see me
01:00:38as someone
01:00:38who's moody
01:00:39and unpredictable?
01:00:41No.
01:00:43No.
01:00:45I'll help you.
01:00:47I step forward
01:00:48and reach
01:00:50to unbutton his shirt.
01:00:52Colin suddenly
01:00:53grabs my wrist.
01:00:54His palm is hot.
01:00:56I didn't ask you
01:00:57to undress me.
01:00:58Just hold my clothes.
01:01:00I awkwardly
01:01:01pull my hand back
01:01:02and stand to the side.
01:01:04He undoes the buttons
01:01:06one by one,
01:01:07taking off his jacket
01:01:08and shirt.
01:01:09His tamed chest
01:01:10and defined abs
01:01:11gradually come into view.
01:01:13My face burns.
01:01:15I quickly closes my eyes.
01:01:23When I open my eyes again,
01:01:25he's already changed
01:01:27into the burgundy outfit.
01:01:30It looks amazing on you.
01:01:33It suits you.
01:01:34How did you know my size?
01:01:36I studied fashion design.
01:01:39My eyes can measure.
01:01:45Colin is about to say something
01:01:48when his phone rings.
01:01:52He glances at the message
01:01:54and frowns.
01:01:56I have something to take care of.
01:01:58Get some rest.
01:02:00Don't wait up.
01:02:03He wheels himself away hastily.
01:02:07I watch his back,
01:02:08feeling a little worried.
01:02:10He's going to work
01:02:11through the night again.
01:02:13How can his body hand it?
01:02:16I sigh and slowly
01:02:18walk out of the study.
01:02:22The sound of a car engine
01:02:24comes from outside.
01:02:25He's gone.
01:02:27I stand by the window,
01:02:29a doubt suddenly forming
01:02:30in my mind.
01:02:31When Colin talked about
01:02:32CR warization,
01:02:33his tone was too calm
01:02:35for someone in debt.
01:02:36Could it be he was lying
01:02:37that he's actually
01:02:38someone high up at CR?
01:02:41No, that's impossible.
01:02:43If he had that kind of power,
01:02:45why would the Riley family
01:02:47have kicked him out?
01:02:51Never mind.
01:02:53No matter what,
01:02:54he's my husband.
01:02:56I choose to trust him.
01:02:58I choose to trust him.
