00:06controlled the very picture of restraint but every night he grips my waist
00:11fucking me until my legs go weak while whispering my name over and over princess
00:17his movements drove into me so relentlessly that i couldn't form a complete sentence
00:31the words broke apart between ragged breaths i could feel him clearly his solid presence moving
00:36within me again and again leaving me trembling with a low restrained groan he gave into the
00:42moment pulling me closer as everything came to a head when it was over we were left clinging to each
00:51other breathing hard suspended in the fading echo of our shared climax he just doesn't know that in
00:56two weeks i'm marrying someone else the sheets are still damp with our shared heat i lie in bed
01:02catching my breath as vincent rises to dress from my side of the bed i watch his long fingers
01:08deftly buttoning his shirt not staying tonight family meeting be good that again vincent nothing
01:19i'm leaving
01:22the moment the door clicks shut i snatch my phone and dial a familiar number

01:31but i have one condition good name it we'll talk in person i hang up and my eyes fall on
01:37the phone
01:38vincent left on the nightstand the screen lights up with a new message it's followed by a kissing emoji
01:43i stare at the message my fingertips trembling vincent has never taken me to the hospital
01:49not even when i broke a rib during training
01:53i get dressed and discreetly follow his car he pulls up to a cozy italian restaurant on mott street
02:00from a distance i watch him stride toward a girl in a white dress isabella she's even thinner than she
02:06appears in photos vincent reaches out tucking a windswept strand of hair behind her ear i've never seen
02:12him look so gentle except when we're in bed three years ago my father sent me to vincent
02:22the sight of his handsome cold face made my knees weak sophia needs a proper education in how our family
02:31operates she's too wild you're the only one who can handle her i was 19 then fresh out of boarding
02:39school and brimming with rebellion i thought vincent was just another man trying to tame me so i decided
02:45i would tame him first the first time we met i wore a mini skirt to his office just to
02:50provoke him vincent
02:52sat behind his desk and didn't even bother to look up close your legs sophia why because the way you're
02:58sitting suggests the romano family lacks class i hiked my skirt even higher how about now vincent finally
03:06looked up his eyes cold behind his gold rimmed glasses get out for months i did everything i could
03:13to get under his skin i slipped flirtatious notes into his files sabotaged missions he assigned
03:23and even put a laxative in his whiskey
03:28then vincent always cleaned up my messes with infuriating calm then told me in that patronizing
03:35tone sophia you're a smart girl you need to apply that intelligence to the right things until that night
03:45i drugged his drink desperate to see what a vincent without his iron control would look like
03:53i just didn't expect to still be in the room when the drug took hold what did you put in
03:58my drink
04:00you've already guessed haven't you i met his searing gaze
04:09want to try me
04:13that night changed everything
04:17he murmured stroking my cheek vincent i princess this will be our secret princess
04:25little princess that was the word that made me fall completely he pinned me to the bed kissed my body
04:31when his thick cock pressed against my clit i could clearly feel just how massive it was
04:36a wave of fear washed over me in an instant before i could even protest he thrust all the way
04:42in with
04:43one powerful stroke i gasped sharply sucking in a cold breath please be gentle please be gentle
04:53let me have you all of you princess then he began to move slowly sliding in and out with each
05:01steady
05:01thrust pleasure gradually replaced the initial discomfort my juices started flowing freely soaking
05:07his thighs completely harder i murmured feels good doesn't it my little princess
05:20deeper please deeper
05:24vincent suddenly flipped me over gripping my hips firmly as he pounded into me from behind
05:29one hand reached around to roughly rub my swollen clit his stamina was incredible he
05:35fucked me for hours driving me to orgasm again and again for the next two years we maintained this
05:44strange clandestine relationship by day he was the same composed rational vincent but at night
05:56he'd whisper princess in my ear and me until my legs gave out i thought he loved me until my
06:03birthday
06:04i'd spent the entire day preparing put on my most beautiful dress and booked a table at the
06:09restaurant where we first met i was going to tell him i loved him that i wanted to be with
06:14him no
06:15matter the cost but vincent never showed up i sat alone in that restaurant for three hours
06:22until even the waiter started to look at me with pity
06:28the next day photos of vincent greeting another woman at the airport went viral in the pictures
06:33isabella was nestled in his arms the two of them as intimate as lovers so that's where he'd been last
06:39night he'd gone to pick her up i laughed bitterly and drank until i couldn't feel anything i wanted to
06:46confront him to demand to know what i was to him a buddy a tool but i didn't have the
06:51courage i was too
06:53lonely too addicted to the warmth he offered
06:58that night vincent came home to find a wreck
07:02i'd used a wine bottle to smash every single picture of isabella in his study
07:11he didn't even flinch he just instructed the maid to clean up the mess and take care of me
07:16then walked right past me in that moment
07:20i finally understood vincent was the family heir untouchable cold and proud his tolerance wasn't
07:29a sign of affection he simply couldn't be bothered to argue with me after that he still called me
07:36princess in bed as if nothing had changed but my heart was already dead
07:44outside the restaurant vincent opened the car door for isabella
07:48they were laughing about something i looked away and drove back to the romano family estate
08:06what did you say i said i'll marry the sterling family's dying heir in exchange we sever all ties
08:15from this moment on i am no longer a romano you can welcome your mistress and your bastard daughter
08:22into this home with open arms the day you staged the car crash that killed my mother
08:29i stopped wanting you as a father anyway i told you that crash was an accident
08:35don romano shot to his feet accident or not she died on her way to find you cheating with maria
08:43dad let's stop pretending we're a happy family you've been trying to sell me to the sterlings for
08:49five months isn't it just so your precious mistress can finally marry into the family

09:02as of tomorrow you are no longer my daughter get out deal
09:10oh and don't forget to inform the sterling family their bride is no longer the eldest daughter of the
09:16romano family but a parentless orphan ask them if they're still willing to pay the same price
09:26back in my room i shut the door and the mask i wore finally crumbled tears streamed down my face
09:36i curled up on the bed a wounded animal looking its wounds
09:40do you know vincent to finally leave you i had to give up the only thing i had left
09:47the next morning i heard the sounds of furniture being moved downstairs
09:51i rose and walked the landing of the staircase a familiar figure stood at the bottom
09:58isabella my blood ran cold she was that new daughter my stepmother's daughter
10:08isabella stood at the bottom of the stairs in a simple white dress the picture of fragile innocence
10:13she spotted me smiling like an angel you must be sophia i'm isabella it's a pleasure to finally
10:20meet you i didn't answer just stared down at her don romano emerged from the living room
10:27seeing isabella a rare look of paternal affection crossed his features isabella you must be tired from
10:34your journey have sophia show you to your room thank you uncle romano take sophia's room it gets
10:40the best light perfect for your recovery my room from now on it's isabella's room you can move to the
10:47third floor there's an empty guest room up there no thanks i went back upstairs and began to pack
10:59where do you think you're going i'm leaving since i'm no longer a romano there's no reason for me to
11:07stay here sophia your wedding is in two weeks don't be ridiculous i know i'll be at the wedding to
11:15fulfill
11:15our agreement the door slammed shut behind me i drove away from the romano estate without a second
11:23glance i thought about calling a friend but then i realized i didn't have any the people who flocked
11:30around me were only there for the romano family's power and influence now that i'd been cast out
11:35who would bother with me as dusk fell i dragged my suitcase aimlessly through the streets
11:41finally i found an empty bench in central park and sat down the night grew deep the park was quiet
11:48save for the distant hum of traffic i hugged my knees counting down the days until the wedding
11:54i couldn't keep living on the streets as i worried a few drunk men staggered toward me
12:02hey beautiful all alone stay away from me come on have a drink with us i stepped back but the
12:12bench
12:12blocked my escape just then a low menacing voice cut through the air she's with me i turned vincent was
12:21stepping out of the shadows his face a thunderous mask of fury the drunks took one look at his imposing
12:28presence and scrambled away vincent strode toward me his gaze taking in my suitcases then the bench
12:34homeless and you still won't come to me vincent drove me back to his mansion in manhattan
12:42i knew this house all too well every corner held a memory of our bodies tangled together
12:50vincent reached for my suitcase about to take it to my usual bedroom
12:55don't i said heading straight for a guest room i'm only staying for 12 days this is fine you can
13:01stay as long as you want i put my suitcase in the guest room and closed the door i sat
13:07on the edge of
13:07the bed staring at my phone 12 more days and i would leave new york forever the next morning i
13:16went
13:17downstairs vincent was already in the dining room he saw me and gestured to the seat across from him
13:24i sat a maid brought me milk and toast vincent he looked up his gaze calm behind his glasses i
13:32found
13:33out yesterday what is isabella to you a high school classmate she took a bullet for me once
13:39saved my life she's been recovering in europe ever since really just a classmate a savior is it that
13:46simple sophia i don't want you targeting her just because she has returned to the romano family
13:53is that a warning it's a reminder isabella's health is fragile she can't handle any trouble
14:01i nodded saying nothing more vincent was more direct in his defense of isabella than i had ever
14:07imagined i understand i'm going upstairs what else was there to ask
14:14i stayed in the guest room all day the maid brought lunch and dinner to my door
14:20i didn't go down that night i lay in bed unable to sleep usually vincent would open the door around
14:28this time push me down without a word and grip my waist while calling me princess but tonight
14:37nothing his first love was back of course he won't want me anymore
14:45on saturday he forced me to go to a party it didn't look like any mafia gathering i'd ever been
14:50to
14:50you before i could ask i heard a familiar voice vincent you're finally here isabella in a white
14:57evening gown fluttered over like a butterfly she saw me and her expression faltered for a fraction
15:03of a second before she plastered on a sweet smile sophia's here too that's wonderful i glanced around
15:09and saw a large banner that read welcome home isabella it was a welcome party for her vincent had brought
15:15me to isabella's welcome home party i turned to leave but isabella stopped me sophia what's wrong
15:21are you not feeling well i heard you moved out of your house is it because of me i'm so
15:28sorry i had
15:29no idea uncle ramona would let me stay in your room her voice was soft and gentle but loud enough
15:34for everyone around us to hear a few guests looked my way with questioning eyes it's fine it's just a
15:41room
15:41but uncle romano said you even need your disowned him it's all my fault if i hadn't come back
15:48isabella the reason i disowned him has nothing to do with an outsider like you isabella's tears began
15:55to fall she looked pitifully at vincent vincent walked over shot me a warning look don't cry
16:03your eyes will get swollen he took out a handkerchief and dabbed at her tears isabella's
16:08tears turned to a smile you're so good to me vincent i watched them all night he pulled out her
16:15chair
16:16he brought her drinks he fixed her dress a sharp pain pierced my heart in 10 days i thought vincent
16:24was just a cold man who didn't know how to be romantic i was wrong he's not cold he just
16:31wasn't
16:31willing to do those things for me i turned and walked to the bar grabbed a glass of champagne and
16:37downed most of it in one go after the party i stood alone outside the club waiting for a car
16:48isabella came out with vincent carefully helping her walk sophia i'm so sorry about what happened
16:54earlier i twisted my ankle so suddenly vincent couldn't get to you it looks like you handled it
17:01well she glanced at my injured hand a flash of triumph in her eyes i did i've always been good
17:08at handling my own problems that's good to be honest i was a little worried when vincent brought
17:13you tonight after all you two used to used to what you don't actually think vincent has special feelings
17:21for you do you sophia dear vincent just pities you you're homeless now so he took you in out of
17:29charity that's all isabella's eyes were sharp and malicious is that so of course vincent only has
17:37room in his heart for me it's been that way since high school that will never change just then a
17:44black
17:44sedan lost control and sped straight toward us in a split second vincent lunged forward and threw his arms
17:50around isabella shielding her with his body and me i was struck hard by the out of control car and
17:56thrown violently to the ground as the car hit me my consciousness began to fade pain shot through my
18:06entire body but what hurt more was the absolute crushing despair of being abandoned flashes of memory
18:14flooded my mind i remember the first time he pinned me down calling me princess i remember the nights
18:23in his arms listening to the steady beat of his heart thinking i had finally found my home but the
18:30last thing i saw was the truth vincent diving for her leaving me to face the crash alone the final
18:37image
18:37was frozen in my mind vincent without a moment's hesitation diving to protect isabella and me like
18:45some disposable bystander left to face the danger all alone when i finally opened my eyes i was in a
18:54hospital bed it was quiet but i could hear them talking just outside my curtain vincent's voice was so
19:02gentle it sounded like a stranger's voice are you okay isabella softly said yes she asked him vincent if
19:11it happened again you'd still save me first right vincent didn't even hesitate of course sophia has no
19:23reason to be angry in an emergency i'm obviously are gonna save the more fragile person she understands that
19:31it isQUE
19:31after vincent left the room was quiet but not for long the door creaked open
19:37and there she was isabella sat by my bed with a poisonous smile she told me a story about high
19:44school about how she was vincent's first love
19:48she told me she took a bullet for him during an ambush
19:51and ever since vincent has been consumed with guilt
19:56He promised to spend the rest of his life making it up to her.
20:00Then she leaned in, her voice turning venomous.
20:04She told me that while she was away, she lied to Vincent.
20:08She told him I was mistreating her mother.
20:10Vincent didn't discipline you because he was forced to.
20:13He asked for the job.
20:14He wanted to break me to get revenge for her.
20:17I felt my blood turn to ice, but it got worse.
20:22Isabella pulled out her phone and asked,
20:24Did you know that every single time you two were together, it was being recorded?
20:30Vincent installed hidden cameras in the bedroom.
20:33He filmed our most private moment sentence just to give her leverage to control me.
20:40Vincent never loved you.
20:41He was just completing a mission, and now he's going to marry me.
20:46I couldn't stay in that hospital bed for another second.
20:52I jumped into a cab and headed straight to Vincent Mansion.
20:56I had to know.
20:58I had to see if the man I loved was actually the monster Isabella described.
21:03I ran into a study and punched the code into the hidden wall.
21:07It slid open to reveal a room full of monitors and computers.
21:11My hand shook as I found the folder labeled Sophia.
21:14I clicked it.
21:15There they were.
21:16Hundreds of videos.
21:18Every night we spent together.
21:19Every I love you, I whispered in his arms.
21:22He had recorded it all in high definition.
21:25I crumpled to the floor.
21:27It was all true.
21:29I called my father.
21:31My voice breaking.
21:32I asked him, 10 years ago, did Vincent offer to discipline me?
21:36My father didn't even hesitate.
21:38He told me Vincent gave him a $200 million project just for the chance to take me under his wing.
21:45Vincent didn't love me.
21:47He bought me.
21:48He slept with me and controlled me just to get revenge.
21:53I started to laugh.
21:55It was a hysterical, broken sound.
22:00I went to the bedroom and grabbed my suitcase, along with my flight ticket, to a city where he will
22:05never find me.
22:07On my way out, I picked up a solid gold lighter, the first gift Vincent ever gave me.
22:12I used to think it was a symbol of love, but now I realize it was just a mark on
22:16his prey.
22:17I flicked the lighter open and tossed it onto the heavy silk curtains.
22:21I watched the flames grow, devouring the memories, the lies, and the girl who once loved him so deeply.
22:30The sky was a hellish red as fire trucks surrounded the mansion.
22:34I watched it burn.
22:35A message popped up when I turned on my phone.
22:38It was Vincent.
22:39I heard you burned the house.
22:40Do you feel better now, my princess?
22:42I didn't reply.
22:44I was about to catch my flight.
22:45I received another message from him.
22:47Stay home and wait for me.
22:48I have something to tell you.
22:50I turned off my phone, whispered to the empty air,
22:53We'll never see each other again.
22:55I threw my phone out the window and watched it shatter.
22:58Now he has no way to find me.
23:00At the airport, I sat by the window.
23:02Outside, I saw his private jet on the tarmac.
23:04I accidentally saw his silhouette walking up the stairs, heading to another city for his meeting.
23:09My flight was called.
23:10I realized then, there were two planes on that runway, pointed in completely opposite directions.
23:19Vincent walked out of the mafia meeting and loosened his tie.
23:23After three days of high-stakes negotiations, he'd finally taken several more ports.
23:29The Corsini territory had finally fallen.
23:32He was at the top of his game.
23:34He turned on his phone for the first time in 72 hours, and the screen lit up with 99 missed
23:40messages from Isabella.
23:41But his eyes went straight to the only one that mattered.
23:45A single message from Sophia.
23:47He tapped it, expecting her usual sass.
23:50Instead, his blood went cold.
23:52It was a bank notification.
23:54Transfer received $813,000.
24:00The memo simply read,
24:01Settlement for medical and living expenses.
24:04No, I miss you.
24:06No, where have you been?
24:07Just a final bill, paid in full.
24:09That was the total amount of Vincent's money I had spent over the last three years.
24:13I transferred it to him back.
24:15Vincent almost laughed from frustration.
24:17He typed back,
24:20You think I need your money?
24:24Do we really need to settle accounts like this?
24:31He waited for the reply he knew would come in seconds.
24:35But the chat window stayed silent.
24:38Ten minutes passed.
24:40Nothing.
24:42He called her, only to hear a cold, robotic voice say,
24:47The number you have dialed is not...
24:51For a second, Vincent froze.
24:54He thought of Sophia, how she looked when she snuggled into his arms at night,
24:58her long lashes against her skin.
25:00He looked at her profile picture.
25:02A proud cat that looked exactly like her.
25:04He smiled, thinking she was just playing hard to get.
25:07He sent one last message.
25:09Be at the airport to pick me up.
25:10He stared at his phone, waiting for her to say no or fine.
25:15But the message stayed on read.
25:17For the first time in his life,
25:19the ruthless crime boss felt a chill run down his spine.
25:22He was used to her defiance, but he wasn't prepared for her silence.
25:27On the drive back, Vincent sat in the back seat, holding a velvet jewelry box.
25:33Inside was the pearl necklace Sophia had begged for.
25:37The one he had refused to help her buy at the auction.
25:40His driver, Marshall, finally spoke up.
25:42Boss, I think she still heard about the auction.
25:47But if she knew you went through all this trouble to find the real necklace for her, she'd be so
25:51moved.
25:52Vincent looked at the box.
25:54He pictured Sophia's defiant, beautiful face.
26:00Would she?
26:01Marshall kept going, talking about how Sophia was actually kind and sweet,
26:05even when she tried to act tough.
26:06But then the temperature in the car dropped.
26:08Vincent's face turned terrifyingly dark.
26:11He looked at Marshall in the mirror and asked,
26:13Do you like her?
26:14Marshall's hand shook so hard the car almost swerved off the road.
26:18Vincent demanded.
26:20Tell me the truth.
26:21Marshall took a deep breath and admitted it.
26:23Who wouldn't be drawn to someone like her?
26:26But I know she only has eyes for you, boss.
26:29I've only ever admired her from afar.
26:32Vincent calmed down slightly.
26:33But then Marshall found a sudden burst of courage.
26:36He looked at the most powerful boss in the territory and said,
26:39But boss, I hope you treat her better.
26:41You can't protect Isabella one moment, then try to be sweet to Sophia the next.
26:46She deserves a love that is all or nothing.
26:49Vincent narrowed his eyes, his voice dangerous.
26:52What are you implying?
26:54Exactly what it sounds like.
26:55Boss, I've always wanted to ask, who do you really love?
26:59Is it Isabella or is it Sophia?
27:05Sophia?
27:06Sophia, of course.
27:07The moment the words left Vincent's mouth, Marco slammed on the brakes.
27:13The tires screeched against the pavement.
27:16Sorry, boss!
27:17Marco apologized hastily, his back slick with a cold sweat.
27:21To his surprise, Vincent wasn't angry.
27:24He just lifted his cold gaze, studying his assistant in the rearview mirror.
27:31Does my answer shock you that much?
27:34Marco's hands trembled on the wheel.
27:36Shocked was an understatement.
27:38It turned everything he thought he knew on its head.
27:42He didn't dare say it aloud, opting for a more tactful response.
27:50But I've seen you treat Miss Isabella so well, even better than you treat Miss Sophia.
27:57Vincent pressed his long fingers to his temples and leaned back into the leather seat.
28:02That's because she took a bullet for me.
28:05He closed his eyes, memories flooding back.
28:10In high school, he was known at St. Louis Preparatory Academy as the Ice Prince.
28:16As the Marcelli heir, daughters from every major family vied for his attention daily.
28:21The most extreme incident involved the Torino family's daughter arranging roses in a heart
28:27shape at the school gate to declare her feelings.
28:30Every girl wanted him.
28:32To make them stop, he needed a fake girlfriend.
28:35He conceded it was a practical solution.
28:38But who?
28:39His gaze swept across the courtyard and landed on Isabella, reading in the library.
28:44From then on, he started singling her out.
28:46He let her rest her head on his shoulder in class, had her accompany him everywhere, and
28:52tacitly allowed the high society rumors about them to circulate.
28:56The effect was immediate.
28:57The other families backed off.
28:59On graduation day, Isabella asked him to meet on the school roof.
29:03As they were leaving, an assassin from a rival family appeared.
29:07A dark gun barrel aimed right at him.
29:10In that critical moment, Isabella shoved him out of the way.
29:15The gunshot echoed.
29:17He saw Isabella fall like a broken kite, blood gushing from her chest.
29:21In the hospital, the pale-faced girl whispered weakly,
29:25Vincent, I don't regret it.
29:28The doctor said the bullet had grazed her heart.
29:31She'd nearly died.
29:32Out of guilt, he had granted nearly every request she'd made over the years.
29:36The only thing he was grateful for was Isabella's comment,
29:40I want that little Romano princess to never dare bully my mother again.
29:44Which led him to propose disciplining Sofia to Don Romano himself.
29:49At the thought, a smile involuntarily touched Vincent's lips.
29:54Vincent remembered the first time he saw Sofia, like it was yesterday.
29:57She burst into his study like a flash of red, leaning against the door with a smirk.
30:02A princess shouldn't have to wait.
30:04In that moment, she was like a flame, burning through his cold, black-and-white world.
30:09His heart skipped a beat, even if he didn't show it for years.
30:13She was a wild cat.
30:15She put laxatives in his whiskey,
30:17and turned his million-dollar contracts into paper airplanes.
30:21He loved every minute of the chase.
30:24He remembered the night he finally pinned her to his desk.
30:27That night, Sofia was furious, struggling beneath him.
30:31Her miniskirt pushed up to her waist,
30:33panties already torn and dangling from one ankle.
30:37You bastard!
30:38Let me go!
30:39But Vincent only smirked coldly.
30:42One hand pinning both her wrists above her head,
30:45while the other roughly spread her legs.
30:48My princess.
30:49Sofia screamed,
30:50her body clenching violently around him as he took her hard and deep,
30:55the heavy desk creaking under their violent rhythm.
30:58He took her again and again,
31:00until her angry curses turned into broken moans,
31:03and her legs wrapped around his waist involuntarily.
31:06She was furious, calling him a bastard,
31:09but he just whispered,
31:10my princess.
31:11He took her again and again,
31:13but he never said the word love.
31:16Vincent realized he had kept his feelings buried because he was afraid.
31:20He was afraid if he confessed his love,
31:23she would take it for granted.
31:24Or worse, get bored and run away.
31:28But sitting on his private jet,
31:29he couldn't stop thinking about her.
31:32He remembered how she secretly left warm water by his bed when he was sick,
31:37even when she was mad at him.
31:39His throat tightened.
31:41For the first time, he was desperate to get home.
31:45The plane landed in the room.
31:48Vincent walked down the steps,
31:50his eyes searching for that familiar sight.
31:53Every time he returned,
31:55Sofia was there in a bright dress,
31:57waving at him before flying into his arms like a happy bird.
32:01He could almost feel her hug already.
32:04He was ready to pull her into the car and never let her go.
32:09A smile started to spread across his face,
32:12but as he turned, his smile froze.
32:15It was Isabella.
32:17She looked fragile and sweet,
32:19but Vincent's body went stiff.
32:21He pushed her away gently and asked,
32:24What are you doing here?
32:27Isabella pouted, telling him she had come especially to pick him up.
32:31Aren't you happy to see me?
32:33Vincent gave a polite answer, but he didn't even take her hand.
32:36His mind was miles away.
32:38He was thinking about Sofia.
32:40She hadn't shown up.
32:41He figured she was still sulking about him.
32:44He started making a mental list of gifts to fix things.
32:47Isabella begged him to follow her to a special place.
32:50Wanting to get it over with, he agreed.
32:54But when the ballroom doors opened at a luxury hotel, Vincent froze.
32:58The room was a sea of white roses, champagne towers, and heart-shaped balloons.
33:03It was a perfect setting for a romantic proposal.
33:06The elite guests turned to him with knowing smiles.
33:08Vincent realized it instantly.
33:10This was a trap.
33:11Just as he turned to find an exit, the large screen suddenly lit up.
33:15It showed Vincent in high school, letting Isabella rest her head on his shoulder.
33:19Then a photo of him holding an umbrella over her in the rain.
33:21To the crowd, it looked like a perfect, lifelong romance.
33:25But Vincent stood in the back, his face a mask of stone.
33:29Isabella walked onto the stage blushing.
33:31She told the room how Vincent had watched her in the library.
33:33How he only ever took drinks from her hand.
33:36And how everyone called them a perfect match.
33:39I've always been in love with you.
33:41The crowd gasped.
33:43They were sure he was about to propose.
33:45Isabella pulled out a jewelry box.
33:46She was certain he felt the same way, because he had granted her every wish for years.
33:51But Vincent's eyes grew ice cold.
33:53Before she could ask the question, Vincent strode onto the stage.
33:56The room went dead silent.
33:58He looked her right in the eyes and said,
34:03Isabella, I can grant you anything you want, but not this.
34:08I am not in love with you.
34:16Isabella's voice shot up, the color draining from her face.
34:20Vincent, what are you saying?
34:23You don't love me?
34:25How is that possible?
34:27You clearly remember everything.
34:30I apologize for the misunderstanding.
34:32Back then, my associates' daughters were a nuisance.
34:35I needed a shield.
34:36A shield?
34:37He paused, then continued.
34:38As compensation, I deposited half a million dollars into your account every year.
34:43I thought we had an understanding that it was a transaction.
34:47That was my debt to you.
34:48His gaze rested calmly on her pale face.
34:51But that's all there is to it.
34:52The room erupted.
34:54The envious glances instantly turned to mockery and contempt.
34:58Whispers rushed toward Isabella like a tidal wave.
35:01I knew it.
35:02A man of Vincent's status would never fall for someone from the Torino family.
35:06She acted like it was real, but it was all in her head.
35:09I heard her mother used her looks to marry into the Romano family.
35:12Like mother, like daughter, I suppose.
35:14Always trying to climb the social ladder.
35:16Every word was a knife in Isabella's heart.
35:19Her reputation was everything.
35:22She had planned this for three months, inviting all of New York's high society,
35:26determined to become Mrs. Marcelli in the most glamorous way possible.
35:32But now she trembled, her nails digging deep into her palms.
35:35If Vincent didn't love her, then who did he love?
35:38A terrible thought surfaced.
35:40Could it be Sophia?
35:42The next second, Vincent was turning to leave.
35:45She clung to his sleeve with the last shred of her dignity.
36:01Those two words stabbed Isabella through the heart.
36:04Her legs gave out and she collapsed onto the stage.
36:07Her perfectly coiffed hair came undone.
36:09Her makeup streaked with tears.
36:11Amid the pointing and whispering,
36:13Vincent walked out of the ballroom without a single look back,
36:16striding toward the black car waiting outside.
36:19Marco was already there with the gifts he'd been asked to prepare.
36:22Boss, it's all ready.
36:24The sapphire necklace and Miss Sophia's favorite Italian chocolates.
36:35Vincent took out his phone and texted Sophia.
36:38Come to the Long Island villa.
36:40I have something for you.
36:42No reply.
36:43He called her, still off.
36:45Frowning slightly, he sent another text.
36:48Still mad?
36:49The messages went out, one after another, meeting only silence.
36:53Vincent rubbed his temples and sent one more.
36:56You burned down the mansion.
36:58If you're still not satisfied, do you want to burn another one?
37:02After a long wait, the phone remained quiet.
37:04Still no response.
37:06His patience finally snapped.
37:08Vincent dialed Don Romano's number directly.
37:16The phone slipped from Vincent's hand.
37:21The convoy sped to the Romano estate.
37:23Vincent kicked the front door open and stormed inside.
37:27Don Romano was sitting on a leather sofa, sipping whiskey.
37:29He was so shocked, he almost dropped his glass.
37:33Vincent, what are you doing here?
37:35You married Sophia off to Sterling family in Boston?
37:38Vincent bit out each word.
37:40I did.
37:42You were always complaining about how much trouble she was, right?
37:47And the Sterling family's sickly heir was offering 500 million for an alliance, so I married her off.
37:57Now you and Isabella can finally be together without anyone bothering you.
38:04Who told you I love Isabella?
38:07Vincent slammed his fist on the marble coffee table, and the entire slab cracked in two.
38:13Men, tear this place apart.
38:14Two dozen men in black suits swarmed in, and in an instant, porcelain, furniture, and paintings were reduced to fragments.
38:24Don Romano's face went pale.
38:26Vincent, what are you doing?
38:28As of today, the Romano family is finished.
38:31No! Vincent, you can't do this!
38:34Don Romano scrambled forward, pleading.
38:39Think of the history between our families.
38:42Just then, Isabella rushed in.
38:44Vincent!
38:46Vincent!
38:48Why are you doing this to my father?
38:50Realization dawned on her, and she screamed hysterically.
38:53You fell in love with Sophia, didn't you?
38:56I did.
38:57So what?
38:58Isabella looked as if she'd been struck by lightning, then burst into manic laughter.
39:05But she's never coming back.
39:07You love her, but you never said it, so everyone thought you loved me!
39:14Isabella's smile was twisted.
39:16I paid your maids to fill your study with my pictures.
39:20Do you think Sophia never saw them?
39:22Why do you think she burned down the mansion?
39:25Because I told her you recorded your private moments together to use as blackmail!
39:29She wasn't forced to marry him!
39:32She gave up on you completely!
39:34She chose to marry someone else!
39:37She'll never come back!
39:39Every word was a dagger, twisting in Vincent's heart.
39:42He thought about Sophia's recent behavior.
39:44The lack of tantrums, the silence, the way she walked away from the fire without a second glance.
39:49So, she had seen the photos. She had heard the rumors. She had lost all hope in him.
39:55As for the recordings, he had made them, but only to watch them himself.
39:59He remembered how she looked in the throes of passion, the stubborn way she bit her lip to keep
40:03from crying out, the flush that crept up her neck when she came. He couldn't bring himself to delete
40:08those memories. But now, they had all become weapons used against her.
40:14Isabella, you will pay for this. He turned, his voice as cold as the grave.
40:20Get the jet ready. We're going to Boston. Now!
40:26Sophia sat in her room, staring blankly at the mountains of luxury goods. From the day she
40:31arrived at the Sterling Estate, a non-stop stream of items had been brought to her. Sophia finally
40:36held up a hand. Look at this room. Is there any space left? The maids exchanged
40:42glances. One of them immediately pressed her earpiece and whispered,
40:46Young master, Miss Sophia says the room is too small. I'll- Sophia deadpanned.
40:51That's not what I meant! The young master's orders were to spend without limit.
40:56Sophia pressed her hand to her forehead. Does your young master usually throw money
41:00away like this? The maid said seriously. The young master is very wealthy. For the Sterling family,
41:06this is just pocket change. Sophia took a deep breath and finally asked the question that
41:12had been on her mind for days. I've been here for almost a week. May I meet your young master?
41:17The maid hesitated. The young master said he's not mentally prepared yet. Sophia laughed in disbelief.
41:23He married me and he's not prepared? Fine, then I'm leaving. The moment the words left her mouth,
41:30all the maids suddenly stood at attention, bowing respectfully. Young master! Sophia froze and
41:36turned toward the door. Footsteps approached and a tall, slender figure appeared. Sophia was stunned.
41:45This was Alexander Sterling, the supposedly dying heir. He looked healthy enough to take on a dozen
41:51assassins single-handedly. Mr. Sterling, care to explain? I'm sorry. The truth is, I'm not sick. I was
41:57just too scared to meet you. I've been waiting for you since I was a child. I've loved you for
42:02so long.
42:03You said you've been in love with me for a long time? Ten years ago, at the yacht party in
42:07the
42:08Hamptons. Have we met? Have you forgotten who you saved? Sophia froze. Her memory pulled back a
42:16decade. At that party, she had been on the deck when she heard a splash. A young boy had fallen
42:22overboard.
42:23Before anyone else could react, she had dived in after him. After swallowing several mouthfuls of
42:29seawater, she finally dragged him back to the deck. She'd asked, soaked to the bone but ignoring herself
42:37as she knelt to perform first aid. The little boy coughed up water and opened his eyes, his lashes beaded
42:48with moisture. She had taken off her jacket and wrapped it around his shivering body.
43:01Are you okay? The boy had clutched her jacket, his eyes shining like stars.
43:06Sophia snapped back to the present, staring at Alexander in disbelief.
43:11That little kid who fell in the water? That was you?
43:15Yes. The tips of Alexander's ears flushed.
43:18I've been looking for you for ten years. Sophia suddenly laughed.
43:21But you were only twelve then, and I was sixteen. I'm four years older than you.
43:26Because you were like an angel. You saved me, and you were so gentle.
43:30His eyes were so clear, without a trace of pretense.
43:33Princess, I truly love you. I didn't mean to deceive you. If you want to leave,
43:40the 500 be still yours, and I'll let you go. But if you're willing to give me a chance,
43:46let me give you a home. I'll spend my entire life treating you right.
43:51The word home struck a deep chord in Sophia's heart. Maybe she could try? At least here,
43:57someone loved her with all their heart. In the days that followed,
44:00Alexander treated Sophia like the center of the universe. She casually mentioned a craving for
44:05Italian food, and half an hour later, a three-star Michelin chef and his entire team were at their
44:10door. She frowned in her sleep, and Alexander had all the carpets in the villa replaced with a softer
44:16material. Most importantly, the entire Sterling family adored her. She hadn't felt this cherished
44:22in years. Her new life felt like a dream, until a maid reported breathlessly.
44:26Madam, Mr. Vincent is here. He's asking to see you.
44:33The magazine in Sophia's hand fell to the floor.
44:39She looked up and met Alexander's tense gaze. He put down the strawberry he was holding,
44:44his voice tight. Princess, do you want to see him? Sophia looked at his tense profile and suddenly
44:50smiled. No. She reached out and poked his cheek. Keep feeding me strawberries.
44:55Alexander's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned back into her loyal puppy,
45:00carefully feeding her strawberries, one by one. On Sophia's birthday, Alexander threw a lavish party.
45:07When Alexander took her hand, led her onto the stage, and announced he was transferring 50%
45:12of his company shares to her, the entire room gasped. Is he crazy?
45:19That's billions. Sophia tugged on his sleeve. What are you doing? Alexander looked down at her,
45:26his eyes shining. If I wasn't afraid of burdening you, I would have given you 100%.
45:30Someone in the crowd started chanting.
45:36The tips of Alexander's ears turned bright red as he looked at Sophia tentatively. Just as he
45:42leaned in to kiss her, the ballroom doors were kicked open. Everyone froze. Vincent stood in the
45:47doorway, impeccably dressed, but his eyes were terrifyingly dark. His gaze was fixed on Sophia
45:54and Alexander's intertwined hands, as if he wanted to burn a hole right through them.
46:00Almost instantly, Alexander pulled Sophia into his arms, shielding her with his body.
46:05But Sophia was surprisingly calm. She looked at Vincent and smiled.
46:09Mr. Marcelli, what brings you here? A wedding gift? Her words were a knife, stabbing deep into
46:17Vincent's chest. His jaw tightened, veins standing out on his neck. His voice was raw.
46:22Sophia, come back with me. Sophia's smile widened. Go back to what?
46:27To watch you take care of Isabella? I don't love Isabella. I love you.
46:33The guests gasped, and the whispers erupted. He really is here to crash the wedding?
46:38His voice was low. Let's talk somewhere else. Alexander sneered.
46:44Mr. Marcelli, you're not welcome here. But Sophia gently placed a hand on his.
46:49It's okay. I'll make things clear. Inside the black car, Sophia sat in the passenger seat,
46:55calmly looking out the window. Vincent was in the driver's seat, his tie crooked,
46:59his eyes bloodshot. He had never looked so disheveled. The recordings,
47:03I made them, but not to blackmail you. I just wanted to keep them for myself. He explained everything,
47:11one detail at a time. When he finished, Sophia just asked quietly. And Vincent froze.
47:21And come back with me.
47:26Sophia, it's always been you. I love you.
47:30Vincent, you knew my situation, but you still chose to side with Isabella again and again.
47:36Even if you don't love her, the pain you caused me was real. And during that time, my feelings for
47:44you
47:44slowly died. I can't get them back. Vincent's fingers tightened on the steering wheel, his knuckles
47:51turning white. His voice shook. Sophia, I'm not a god. I made a mistake. Can't you allow me one
47:57mistake? Is the price for one mistake losing you forever? Sophia looked at him, her gaze so calm,
48:04it was brutal. Yes, I don't hate you, but I won't love you again either. She took a gold-leafed
48:10invitation
48:10from her purse and handed it to him. My wedding to Alexander is in three days. With that, she opened
48:17the car door and walked toward Alexander, who was waiting by the road, never once looking back.
48:22Vincent sat in the car, watching her leave, and suddenly remembered the first time he saw her.
48:28She was in a red dress, proud and radiant. A fire that had burned its way into his black and
48:35white world.
48:36And now, that fire was gone.
48:41The day before the wedding, Sophia sat at the vanity in the bridal suite,
48:45her fingertips tracing the diamonds on her wedding dress. The sun was shining,
48:49and staff bustled outside, preparing for the ceremony. Everything seemed perfect. A soft knot
48:54came at the door. Princess? Alexander entered, filling a cup of warm herbal tea and a small,
49:00elegant velvet box. He was dressed in a well-fitted black suit, his eyes impossibly gentle. He said,
49:08placing the cup beside her, You barely touched your breakfast. Sophia looked up, a small smile on her lips.
49:14Thanks. Sophia opened the box. Inside were exquisite pieces of Italian chocolate. Alexander said softly,
49:22I heard you used to love the chocolates from this shop, Alexander said softly. I had them flown in from
49:27Milan. Sophia paused, surprised. She was about to speak when the estate's security alarm began to
49:33shriek. Alexander frowned. A frantic voice came through. What's going on? Mr. Alexander, the system is
49:39breached all surveillance and access controls. Alexander's face changed. Princess, stay here.
49:44Don't move. He hurried out, giving sharp orders in the hallway. Before she could react, the sweet door
49:50was pushed open soundlessly. A tall figure stood in the doorway, Vincent. Sophia shot to her feet,
49:57knocking over a bottle of perfume. Outside, a helicopter hovered, its rotor blades deafening.
50:04Sophia's eyes widened in horror. Vincent! This is kidnapping! So what if it is?
50:10You're mine. He sneered, leaping onto the balcony with her. I should have done this the first day I saw
50:17you.
50:18The wind howled, whipping her wedding dress around her. She looked back at the estate and saw Alexander's
50:24distant figure being held back by several men in black. He seemed to be shouting her name,
50:28but the wind stole the sound. The helicopter landed on a private island at dawn. Vincent carried Sophia
50:34off the aircraft. The moment her feet touched the ground, she shoved him away. She sneered,
50:39illegal confinement? Her wedding dress whipping in the sea breeze.
50:42When did Vincent Marcelli stoop to such low-life tactics?
50:46So what if I did? Vincent gave her a tour, he said, opening the French doors.
50:51Everything here is yours. The gardens, the pool, the library, even that ocean!
50:59I want to go back.
51:00Sophia, let's start over, as if none of it ever happened.
51:05Vincent, when did you learn to lie to yourself?
51:08Sophia, I will make you become the person you used to be.
51:12She woke from a nightmare to find a small lamp on her nightstand, its light soft as the moon.
51:18Vincent sat by her bed, watching her, his eyes bloodshot. This was a Vincent she had never seen
51:23before. Tender, obsessive, and unconditionally indulgent. For a moment, she was dazed. If only
51:30he had been like this before, but there was no going back. He cupped the back of her neck, pulling
51:35her
51:35closer.
51:37Don't, don't touch me!
51:39Vincent froze, his eyes filled with a storm of pain.
51:43Sophia, what do you want me to do?
51:44Sophia looked at him and suddenly smiled. Let me go.
51:50A maid entered. Madam, please drink some milk.
51:54When is he coming back? Mr. Vincent had to return to New York to handle the
51:59Marcelli family business. He would be back as soon as possible.
52:02The glass hit the wall, shattering. Sophia sneered.
52:06I am not your madam! Get out!
52:08A terrified maid scrambled out. Sophia bent down and picked up the sharpest shard of glass.
52:15Vincent handed his suit jacket to the maid.
52:19Where is she? In the master bedroom.
52:23Vincent pushed open the bedroom door, his face filled with terror. Sophia was sitting on the edge
52:27of the bed. A startling gash marked her wrist, blood dripping from her fingertips onto the carpet,
52:33staining it crimson. Vincent's pupils contracted. He rushed forward and seized her wrist. If you dare to
52:39die, I will make the entire Sterling family die with you. Sophia looked up, a mocking smile on her pale
52:45face. What will it take for you to finally let me go? Say you love me.
52:56In your dreams. Vincent stared at her, then suddenly smiled. A look that sent a chill down her spine.
53:03He let her go and turned to Marco. Contact the global media, now. Marco froze.
53:10Boss, you mean a live stream of my wedding to Sophia?
53:21Cameras were aimed at the bedroom's French doors. Vincent had changed into a black suit. Sophia was
53:28forced into a wedding dress, a silk ribbon hiding the wound on her wrist. Vincent
53:33gripped Sophia's waist and leaned in to kiss her. Sophia struggled, biting his lip hard enough to
53:38draw blood. Blood trickled from his mouth, dripping onto her white dress. The live stream cut out
53:44abruptly, but it was too late. The world was in an uproar. Sophia shoved him away, his blood
53:50staining her lips. Vincent, are you insane? Vincent wiped the blood from his mouth and laughed softly.
54:00Now, the whole world knows you're mine. Sophia looked at him and felt like she was looking at a stranger.
54:06On the 27th day of her captivity, Sophia learned to be obedient. He asked one morning, tying his tie by
54:13the bed. What do you want to eat today? Her voice was calm. Whatever you make. Vincent's fingers paused.
54:20A flash of surprise crossed his eyes, followed by a smile. He turned and went to the kitchen.
54:28The moment he was gone, Sophia threw back the covers and pulled a microcomputer from under the
54:33mattress, stolen from his study last week. She had breached the island's security system. An encrypted
54:41distress signal was sent. Three nights later, Sophia stood on the edge of a cliff. Hurried footsteps came from
54:48behind. Alexander had arrived. Princess! He yelled, rushing toward her. Come with me!
54:53Sophia glanced back at the guards, chasing them, and suddenly smiled. Alexander, are you afraid of heights?
55:00Before he could react, Sophia grabbed his hand and jumped off the cliff.
55:06Soaked to the bone, Sophia and Alexander struggled onto a small, hidden shore. Let's go!
55:12Alexander pulled her toward a waiting speed boat. Just then, a blinding spotlight hit them. Vincent
55:18stood on the shore, flanked by dozens of guards. His voice was ice.
55:26Done running? Sophia shielded Alexander with her body. Vincent! Let him go!
55:30Vincent stared at her. I can. Then smiled faintly. But you have to stay.
55:36Before Sophia could answer, a loud rumbling came from the cliff above. A giant boulder had come loose,
55:43tumbling straight toward them. Watch out! Vincent lunged, shoving both of them out of the way. The boulder
55:49crashed down on his legs. Blood instantly stained the seawater red. The impact threw Sophia to the ground,
55:56and her head hit a rock. Her vision blackened, but she forced her eyes open. She saw Vincent lying
56:03in a pool of blood, his face ashen, his gaze locked on her. Sophia, are you okay?
56:10Vincers, let me go. Sophia's mouth opened, but her vision went dark.
56:17When Vincent woke up, the first thing he felt was a deep numbness in his legs. The doctor stood by
56:24his bed,
56:24his voice low. Mr. Marcelli, your spinal nerves are damaged. Your lower body's motor functions might be...
56:30He didn't finish, but the meaning was clear. Marco's eyes were red. I'll go tell Miss Sophia,
56:37if she knows you did this to save her... Shut up. Vincent cut him off coldly. No one says a
56:45word.
56:45He turned to look out the window, the sunlight stinging his eyes. He remembered the last thing
56:50he saw. Sophia, lying on the ground, pale. Vincent, let me go. Forcing out the words. In that moment,
56:58he finally understood a pain worse than death. Some mistakes, once made, truly meant losing the one
57:05you love forever. One month later, Vincent sat in his wheelchair, watching the news.
57:10Sterling Group CEO Alexander Sterling, an Italian social alt, married today in a grand ceremony.
57:16On the screen, Sophia was in a wedding dress, her smile brilliant. She used to smile at him like that,
57:23before he had sided with Isabella, time and time again. The courier rang the doorbell while Vincent
57:30was sitting in the ruins of the burned down mansion. Sir, a package for you. Vincent took it.
57:35It was a small box. Inside was a men's wedding band, exquisitely crafted. The inside was engraved,
57:43to Vincent, with all my love, S. There was also a card. Vincent's hand trembled.
57:51The ring fell to the ground with a soft clink. So, she had wanted to marry him. A tearing pain
58:00ripped through his chest. He doubled over, gasping for breath. A neighbor walked by and asked,
58:07curiously. Sir, this house is a ruin. Are you waiting for someone? Vincent looked up.
58:14Yes, I'm waiting. The setting sun illuminating his pale face. But he knew she was never coming back.
58:23The sun set, leaving him alone in the ruins. He lit a cigarette and looked toward the horizon,
58:30as if he could still hear that proud voice calling his name. Vincent Marcello.
