00:00I have deeply loved Sebastian for a full 8 years.
00:03Looking at the photo of Sebastian and me in my hand,
00:06I stood before the door and murmured softly,
00:09This is my last chance.
00:12This time, can I become Sebastian's fiancé?
00:15At the moment I reached out and was about to open the door,
00:18I suddenly froze, because I heard Sebastian's mother
00:20questioning him with anger and disappointment.
00:22Sebastian, tell me, why, for seven successive years,
00:26have you secretly replaced all the slips of paper
00:28with your name on them with blank ones?
00:30You know perfectly well that if she doesn't draw your name,
00:33Eleanor can never become your fiancé.
00:36Doesn't it hurt your heart to watch her cry in disappointment every year?
00:40She has been crying for seven years.
00:42One more time won't make a difference.
00:45But Lillian just came back from Switzerland,
00:47and her emotions are very unstable.
00:49I promised to accompany her through her treatment for seven years.
00:54He then gave a light chuckle.
00:56Anyway, Eleanor and I have been together for eight years.
00:59Her family and friends all think we are definitely getting married.
01:03Other than waiting for me,
01:05she has no other choice.
01:08Don't worry.
01:09Next year, I will give her a very grand proposal ceremony.
01:14Consider it an explanation to her for these past few years.
01:17I think she will definitely be very satisfied with this arraignment.
01:20After saying that, he threw the slip of paper with Sebastian Ashford,
01:24written on it into the paper shredder.
01:26Listen, the sound of this paper shredder is indeed
01:30much better than Eleanor's disappointed crying every year.
01:34Standing outside the door, I heard those words
01:36and stared blankly at the photo in my hand.
01:39Turns out he wasn't blind to my tears,
01:42nor was he unaware of my disappointment.
01:43These seven years of blank slips were just a joke
01:47he used to trample on my true feelings.
01:50I clearly remember the Ashford family's rules.
01:53To become Sebastian's fiancée,
01:54one must draw a slip of paper from the lottery box
01:57at the grand charity banquet.
01:59She can only become his fiancée
02:01if she draws the slip with his name on it.
02:03And for these seven years,
02:04I have tried every possible method
02:05just to be able to become his fiancée.
02:08I thought he loved me truly,
02:09so I did all this willingly.
02:10Yet the hidden truth cuts deep and hurts so much.
02:14What do all my years striving to be his fiancée count for?
02:17It's nothing but a joke.
02:18But now, my heart suddenly let go completely.
02:21I loosened my grip,
02:22letting the slip of paper in my hand fall to the ground
02:25and turned to walk away.
02:26Since your name still isn't in the box for the eighth time,
02:30then I will just marry someone else.
02:32Sebastian adjusted his cuffs
02:34and left the lounge without a care.
02:36He arrived at the banquet hall,
02:37which was filled with wealthy people in gorgeous clothes.
02:40This was the eighth gala,
02:42hosted by the Ashfords,
02:44the most powerful family in New York,
02:46to select a fiancée for their heir.
02:48He walked straight toward Lillian,
02:50who was surrounded by a group of wealthy young ladies talking.
02:54Sebastian.
02:55Lillian's eyes were red,
02:56looking deeply wronged,
02:57and she threw herself into his arms.
02:59They said I have no right to stand here,
03:01that I'm the one ruining the relationship
03:03between you and Eleanor.
03:04Sebastian frowned deeply,
03:06his eyes sweeping fiercely across the entire hall,
03:10finally landing on those wealthy young ladies
03:12who were gossiping.
03:14Who dares to say she has no right?
03:16The rules I, Sebastian, have set
03:18are the rules of New York's Upper East Ed High Society.
03:21Lillian is an important guest I invited.
03:23Whoever makes her unhappy,
03:24makes me unhappy.
03:25The entire hall instantly became so quiet
03:28that even breathing could be heard.
03:30In the midst of this silence,
03:31the crystal chandelier in the banquet hall
03:33suddenly dimmed by half.
03:35Only a few wall lamps gave off a faint glow.
03:38Immediately after,
03:39a beam of cold white spotlight suddenly lit up.
03:42I pushed the doors open and walked in.
03:45Every step was unhurried and composed.
04:01Those wealthy young ladies looked at me.
04:03After all, for the past seven years,
04:05I was publicly recognized by everyone
04:07as Sebastian's fiancée
04:08and the only woman he allowed to stay by his side constantly.
04:12Everyone thought I would definitely make a scene
04:14and drive Lillian away or, like the previous seven years,
04:18question him with red eyes
04:20about why he was protecting another woman.
04:22But this time,
04:23I didn't even give them half a glance.
04:26Without stopping,
04:27I walked straight toward a waiter in the banquet hall.
04:29I picked up a glass of champagne
04:31from the waiter's tray and took a small sip.
04:34The cold liquid slid down my throat,
04:37suppressing the very last bit of affection in my heart.
04:40Eleanor, aren't you going to do something about it?
04:43Someone asked me in a very low voice.
04:46I smiled, but there was not a hint of a smile in my eyes.
04:49Young Master Ashfield is standing up for a beauty.
04:52Why would I go over there and interfere?
04:54Besides,
04:55I swirled the wine glass in my hand
04:58with a bit of a spectator's look in my eyes.
05:00I'm also quite curious to see if Sebastian's name
05:04is actually in the raffle box this year.
05:07Sebastian's body instantly stiffened.
05:09He subconsciously turned to look at me
05:12as if completely unexpected
05:14that I would have this reaction.
05:15In the past, at times like this,
05:17I would have already been crying
05:19and making a scene to drive Lillian away.
05:21But today, I was as quiet as someone
05:24entirely unconnected to this matter.
05:27A flash of impatience crossed his eyes.
05:29He let go of Lillian and strode toward me.
05:34Eleanor, what kind of temper are you throwing again?
05:37Lillian just came back from Switzerland.
05:39Her health is poor and she can't be frightened.
05:42You are the eldest daughter of the Walker family.
05:45Can't you be a bit broad-minded?
05:47Broad-minded, I looked at this man in front of me
05:49whom I had loved for over a decade.
05:52Suddenly, he felt very foreign.
05:54Seven years.
05:55More than 2,500 days a night.
05:59To cater to his preferences,
06:00I put away my own temper and skills,
06:02learning to make him French desserts
06:04and English afternoon tea.
06:06To get his name to appear in that damn box,
06:09I bribed the Ashford's butler,
06:10curried favour with Sebastian's mother
06:13and exhausted all possible means.
06:15And the result?
06:16What I got in exchange was his phrase,
06:18be a bit more broad-minded,
06:20and my sincere heart shredded to pieces
06:22in the paper shredder.
06:24Sebastian.
06:25I put down the wine glass in my hand.
06:26The glass clinked crisply against the marble table.
06:29I am not throwing a temper.
06:31I just think you are right.
06:33Miss Lillian is delicate
06:34and does indeed need someone
06:37to properly accompany her through her treatment.
06:40Sebastian was stunned.
06:41He stared into my eyes
06:42as if trying to find a hint of petulance
06:45or jealousy in them.
06:47Unfortunately, he found nothing.
06:48My heart was completely peaceful,
06:50without a single ripple.
06:52This feeling of being out of his control
06:53made him inexplicably panicked.
06:55He reached out, trying to grab my wrist.
06:58It's good that you understand.
07:01After tonight, next year.
07:03There is no next year.
07:04I turned sideways, dodging his hand.
07:06My tone was as flat
07:07as if discussing today's weather.
07:09My grandfather said the same thing
07:11can only be done at most eight times.
07:14Tonight is the eighth time.
07:15If your name is still not drawn,
07:18then we are done.
07:19Seeing this,
07:20Lillian quickly walked over
07:21and stood in front of me.
07:23Eleanor, stop throwing a tantrum
07:25and just apologize to Sebastian.
07:27He still loves you deep down.
07:29It's just that since I returned,
07:32my actions have been so unstable.
07:34And he is just worried about me.
07:36Besides, everyone knows
07:38that you would never marry anyone
07:40but Sebastian.
07:43As soon as her voice fell,
07:45a crisp slap suddenly sounded.
07:46My eyes were full of mockery.
07:48When is it an outsider's turn
07:50to dictate my affairs?
07:52Sebastian's face suddenly changed,
07:53and he stepped directly
07:55in front of Lillian.
07:57Eleanor, you have gone too far.
07:59Apologize to Lillian.
08:01Apologize?
08:02On what grounds?
08:04Because she's your darling?
08:05Or because she's thick-shitted?
08:07Sebastian, have you forgotten
08:09that tonight is my home court?
08:10As long as the drawing haven't started,
08:12I am still your fiancé in name.
08:14What's the problem
08:15with teaching an outsider
08:17who doesn't know the rules
08:18a lesson?
08:19The surrounding guests
08:20began to whisper.
08:21Mrs. Ashford also hurried over
08:24upon hearing the commotion.
08:26Seeing this scene,
08:27she frowned deeply.
08:28What are you arguing about?
08:30Isn't this embarrassing?
08:32She glared at Sebastian,
08:33then looked at me.
08:34Her eyes were complex.
08:37Eleanor,
08:38it's almost time for the drawing.
08:39Don't let irrelevant people
08:41ruin the big event.
08:42Mrs. Ashford liked me very much.
08:44She genuinely hoped
08:45I could marry into the Ashford family.
08:47It was a pity.
08:48That good son of hers
08:49personally destroyed all of this.
08:51Sebastian took a deep breath,
08:53suppressing the anger in his heart.
08:55He reached out to put his arm
08:56around Lillian's shoulder
08:58and patted her comfortingly.
09:00Then he looked at me,
09:01his tone cold.
09:02Fine.
09:03Since you want to play so much,
09:05let's begin.
09:05I want to see the moment
09:06you draw a blank slip.
09:08Whether you can still be
09:10as sharp-tongued
09:11as you are now.
09:12After saying that,
09:14he turned and walked
09:15toward the high platform
09:16in the center of the hall.
09:17There lay an exquisite box.
09:20It was also the judgment stand
09:21that would decide my fate.
09:23I watched his back.
09:24My eyes gradually turned cold.
09:27Sebastian,
09:28you think you control everything.
09:30But little do you know,
09:31this time,
09:32you are the prey.
09:34In the center of the hall,
09:35the crystal lights were dazzling.
09:37Everyone's gaze focused
09:38on that carved oak box.
09:40According to family rules,
09:41there were a hundred slips of paper
09:43placed in the box.
09:44Only one of them
09:45had Sebastian's name written on it.
09:47Drawing it
09:47would be the arrangement of fate,
09:49resulting in an engagement on the spot.
09:51Failing to draw it
09:52meant fate hadn't arrived
09:54and we would try again next year.
09:55For the past seven years,
09:57every time,
09:58I reached my hand in full of hope.
09:59Every time.
10:01What I pulled out
10:01was completely blank.
10:03I thought it was just my bad luck.
10:04I thought it was God
10:05testing our relationship.
10:06It wasn't until today
10:08that I learned
10:08that among those
10:09hundred slips of paper,
10:11Sebastian's name
10:12was never there at all.
10:13They were all blank papers
10:14he had personally substituted.
10:16Eleanor, go on.
10:17I specifically asked the priest
10:20for a blessing.
10:21The priest said,
10:22you will find
10:23your beloved this year.
10:24Beloved, perhaps.
10:26It's just that this person
10:27is not Sebastian.
10:28Lifting my dress,
10:29I walked step by step
10:31onto the high platform.
10:32Sebastian stood next to the box,
10:34one hand in his pocket
10:35looking proud.
10:36The way he looked at me
10:37was like looking
10:38at an unreasonable child.
10:39Eleanor,
10:40as long as you apologize
10:41to Lithian now,
10:42next year,
10:43I promise to let you draw the name.
10:45Wouldn't even need to wait
10:46until next year.
10:47As long as you behave
10:48and stop targeting Lillian,
10:50I can consider
10:50ending this game early.
10:52Game,
10:52in his eyes,
10:54these seven years of torment,
10:55my youth,
10:56my dignity,
10:57were nothing but a game
10:58he could call a halt to
10:59at any time.
11:00I stopped in my tracks.
11:01Standing across from him,
11:03there were only a few inches
11:04of distance between us,
11:05but our hearts were separated
11:07by an entire world.
11:09Sebastian.
11:09I looked into his eyes
11:11and asked softly,
11:12do you really think
11:13I must marry you?
11:14Sebastian was taken aback
11:15for a moment,
11:16then he sneered out loud.
11:32He was too confident,
11:34confident to the point of conceit.
11:36He thought that by grasping my weakness,
11:38he could trample on my bottom line
11:39unscrupulously.
11:40I lowered my eyes,
11:42hiding the mockery in my gaze.
11:44Is that so?
11:45Then let's see,
11:47exactly who is the one
11:48who should accept their fate.
11:50I took a deep breath,
11:51slowly raised my right hand,
11:53and reached into that pitch black box.
11:56My fingertips touched the cold paper.
11:59One slip,
12:00two slips,
12:01countless slips.
12:02Each one was like a knife.
12:04Cutting into my heart,
12:05there was absolute silence
12:07below the stage.
12:08Lillian stood at the forefront
12:09of the crowd,
12:10a victor's smile on her lip.
12:12She knew the box
12:13was full of blank papers.
12:15She was waiting to see me
12:16make a fool of myself in public
12:18and cry bitterly.
12:19Sebastian also looked away casually,
12:21seeming to have already foreseen the ending.
12:24I closed my eyes.
12:25My fingers fumbled
12:26at the bottom of the box.
12:28Finally,
12:29my fingertips touched a slip of paper
12:31with a slightly different texture.
12:33That was the one.
12:34I had someone slip in
12:35during the chaos before entering,
12:37and it was also the final way out
12:39I left for myself.
12:40I snapped my eyes open.
12:42With a strong flick of my wrist,
12:44I pulled out that slip of paper.
12:45Young Master Ashfield.
12:47I held up the slip in my hand,
12:49my voice clear,
12:50spreading throughout the hall.
12:51It seems
12:52your promise
12:54is about to become inviild.
12:57Sebastian's casual expression
12:59froze on his face.
13:00He subconsciously looked at the slip in my hand.
13:02A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
13:05Impossible.
13:05He clearly had personally replaced
13:07all the slips with names
13:09with blank ones,
13:10even just to be safe.
13:11Right before the banquet started,
13:13he had specifically checked again.
13:14There absolutely could not be
13:16any words in the box.
13:17Eleanor,
13:18who are you trying to scare
13:19with a blank piece of paper?
13:20He scoffed coldly.
13:22Stop making a scene
13:24and letting everyone laugh at us.
13:26Whether it's a blank paper or not,
13:28won't we know once it read out loud?
13:29A bright, radiant smile
13:31curled at the corners of my lips.
13:33Since Young Master Ashford
13:35don't believe it,
13:36then invite a highly respected elder
13:38to read it.
13:40I looked at the patriarch
13:41of the Walker family below the stage.
13:43He was also my grandfather.
13:45Grandfather,
13:46please help your granddaughter check.
13:48Whose name is written on this?
13:50Grandfather leaned on his cane
13:52and tremblingly walked up to the stage.
13:54He took the slip from my hand,
13:57unfolded it.
13:58The eyes widened fiercely.
14:00Immediately after,
14:01he burst into a hearty laugh.
14:04Good, it's destiny.
14:06This is the arrangement of destiny.
14:09The unease in Sebastian's heart
14:11grew stronger and stronger.
14:13He abandoned all etiquette,
14:15rushing forward to see what was going on.
14:17Grandfather, let me see it.
14:20Sebastian's casual expression
14:22froze on his face.
14:23He subconsciously looked at the slip in my hand.
14:26A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
14:28Impossible.
14:29He clearly had personally replaced
14:31all the slips with names with blank ones,
14:33even just to be safe.
14:34Right before the banquet started,
14:36he had specifically checked again.
14:38There absolutely could not be any words in the box.
14:41Eleanor, who are you trying to scare
14:42with a blank piece of paper?
14:44He scoffed coldly.
14:45Stop making a scene
14:47and letting everyone laugh at us.
14:49Whether it's a blank paper or not,
14:51won't we know once it read out loud?
14:53A bright, radiant smile
14:54curled at the corners of my lips.
14:56Since young master Ashford don't believe it,
14:59then invite a highly respected elder
15:02to read it.
15:03I looked at the patriarch
15:04of the Walker family below the stage.
15:06He was also my grandfather.
15:09Grandfather, please help your granddaughter check.
15:11Whose name is written on this?
15:14Grandfather leaned on his cane
15:15and tremblingly walked up to the stage.
15:18He took the slip from my hand,
15:20unfolded it.
15:21The eyes widened fiercely.
15:23Immediately after,
15:25he burst into a hearty laugh.
15:27Good, it's destiny.
15:29This is the arrangement of destiny.
15:32The unease in Sebastian's heart
15:34grew stronger and stronger.
15:36He abandoned all etiquette,
15:38rushing forward to see what was going on.
15:40Grandfather, let me see it.
15:43But Grandfather suddenly put away the slip,
15:46turned around,
15:47facing the hundreds of guests below.
15:49According to the century-old family rules
15:51of the Walker and Ashford families,
15:54Miss Eleanor Walker has successfully drawn her husband
15:56in the eighth destiny drawing.
15:59This is the arrangement of destiny.
16:01The whole crowd was in an empty.
16:03Mrs. Ashford was moved to tears.
16:05The smile on Lillian's face stiffened,
16:07her nails digging deeply into her flesh.
16:10Sebastian was struck as if by lightning.
16:12Impossible!
16:13The box clearly!
16:15The words reached his lips,
16:16but he forcefully swallowed them back down.
16:19He couldn't say it.
16:20Saying it would mean admitting he cheated.
16:22It would mean admitting he lied to Eleanor.
16:25He took a deep breath,
16:26forcing himself to calm down.
16:28Grandfather, did you misread it?
16:30How is this possible?
16:32Why is it impossible?
16:33I took the slip back from Grandfather's heart,
16:36slowly unfolded it,
16:37displaying it in front of everyone,
16:39black ink on white paper.
16:40The stroke too vigorous and powerful,
16:43clearly writing.
16:43Alexander Thorne.
16:51A dead silence,
16:53even more terrifying than before.
16:54The colour in Sebastian's face instantly drained away.
16:57He stared deadly at those two words.
17:00Alexander Thorne.
17:01This is impossible.
17:03How could his name be in the box?
17:05Your box can only have my name!
17:07He bellowed out of control,
17:09like an enraged lion.
17:10I watched his crazy behaviour,
17:12and only felt it was laughable.
17:14Young Master Ashford.
17:16The family rules only say to draw a slip to decide a husband.
17:20But they never said
17:21that this box
17:23can only hold the name of you.
17:26Sebastian Ashford alone!
17:28I turned around,
17:30looking into the corner of the crowd,
17:31at the man who had remained silent all along,
17:34yet stood tall and straight like a pine.
17:36Mr. Thorne,
17:38since this is the arrangement of destiny,
17:40I wonder if you are willing
17:42to marry me as your wife.
17:47The crowd automatically parted to make a path.
17:50All eyes converged on that corner.
17:52Alexander Thorne.
17:53Wall Street's most low-key,
17:55yet also most mysterious billionaire.
17:57It was said he was ruthless
17:58and stayed away from women.
18:00He was the Ashford group's biggest mortal enemy
18:02in the global market.
18:03No one expected.
18:04That his name would appear
18:05in the Walker family's raffle box,
18:07and even less expected.
18:08That I would propose to him in public.
18:10Alexander walked up to the high platform step by step.
18:12Every step seemed to trample
18:14on the very tip of Sebastian's heart,
18:16until he stood in front of me.
18:18He finally stopped.
18:19Reflected in his deep eyes
18:20was my current disheveled yet resolute appearance.
18:23Miss Walker.
18:24His voice was deep and magnetic,
18:26carrying a trace of imperceptible indulgence.
18:29You were the one who said it,
18:31in front of all the elites of New York.
18:34No going back on your word.
18:36My heart trembled.
18:37Actually, I wasn't familiar with him.
18:39I had only heard his name,
18:41and knew he didn't get along with Sebastian.
18:43Putting his name in
18:44was purely to take revenge on Sebastian,
18:46and also to find myself
18:48a sufficiently powerful backer.
18:50I didn't expect
18:51that he would agree so readily.
18:52I absolutely won't go back on it.
18:54Alexander hooked his lips into a smile.
18:56In that instant,
18:57he reached out to take the slip from my hand,
19:00carefully folded it,
19:01and placed it in the pocket
19:02closest to his heart.
19:04Then,
19:04right in front of Sebastian,
19:06he went down on one knee,
19:07took out an already prepared
19:09diamond ring from his pocket.
19:11Eleanor Walker,
19:12marry me.
19:13I will make you
19:14the happiest woman
19:15in all of New York.
19:16The whole venue exploded.
19:18This reversal came too fast,
19:20too thrilling.
19:21Sebastian went completely crazy,
19:22and he upended the lottery box.
19:25Alexander,
19:26you're asking for death.
19:27Eleanor is my fiancé.
19:29What right do you have to propose?
19:31The box overturned on the ground.
19:33The slips of paper inside
19:34scattered all over the floor.
19:36Sebastian acted like
19:37he had caught a lifesaver.
19:38He squatted down
19:39to pick up those slips.
19:40I want everyone to see.
19:41These are all blank papers inside.
19:44It is you, Eleanor,
19:45who cheated.
19:46You teamed up with an outsider
19:47to humiliate me.
19:48He grabbed a handful of slips
19:49and held them up
19:50in front of everyone.
19:51Look!
19:52They are all empty!
19:53There are no names at all!
19:55This drawing doesn't count!
19:58However,
19:59the next second,
20:00his voice came to an abrupt halt
20:01because he saw,
20:02on that floor full of slips,
20:04every slip of paper
20:05bore the same single sentence.
20:07I don't love you anymore.
20:09Sebastian's hands began to tremble.
20:10The slips in his hands slipped away.
20:12He looked up in disbelief,
20:14looking at me standing
20:15condescendingly above him,
20:16his eyes full of terror and despair.
20:18Eleanor!
20:19You!
20:20I took Alexander's arm,
20:21looking coldly
20:22at the man on the ground.
20:23Sebastian,
20:24I said it
20:25the eighth time.
20:26If you're still not in the box,
20:28then I will marry someone else.
20:30Now,
20:31you can get lost.
20:32Sebastian went completely crazy,
20:34and he upended the lottery box.
20:37Alexander,
20:37you're asking for death.
20:39Eleanor is my fiancé.
20:41What right do you have to propose?
20:43The box overturned on the ground.
20:44The slips of paper inside
20:46scattered all over the floor.
20:47Sebastian acted like
20:48he had caught a lifesaver.
20:50He squatted down
20:50to pick up those slips.
20:52I want everyone to see.
20:53These are all blank papers inside.
20:55It is you, Eleanor,
20:57who cheated.
20:57You teamed up with an outsider
20:59to humiliate me.
21:00He grabbed a handful of slips,
21:01and held them up
21:02in front of everyone.
21:03Look!
21:04They are all empty!
21:05There are no names at all!
21:07This drawing doesn't count!
21:09However,
21:10the next second,
21:11his voice came to an abrupt halt
21:13because he saw,
21:14on that floor full of slips,
21:16every slip of paper
21:17bore the same single sentence.
21:19I don't love you anymore.
21:20Sebastian's hands
21:21began to tremble.
21:22The slips in his hand
21:23slipped away.
21:24He looked up in disbelief,
21:26looking at me
21:26standing condescendingly above him,
21:28his eyes full of terror
21:29and despair.
21:30Eleanor!
21:31You!
21:32I took Alexander's arm,
21:33looking coldly
21:34at the man on the ground.
21:35Sebastian,
21:36I said it
21:37the eighth time.
21:38If you're still not in the box,
21:40then I will marry someone else.
21:42Now,
21:43you can get lost.
21:44Sebastian slumped on the floor,
21:46surrounded entirely
21:46by slips of paper
21:47that read,
21:48I don't love you anymore.
21:49No.
21:51It is not like this.
21:52He muttered to himself,
21:54trying to find a slip
21:55with his name
21:55written on it from the floor.
21:57Even if it was just one,
21:58it could prove
21:59I still had him in my heart.
22:01Unfortunately,
22:01not a single one.
22:03Eleanor!
22:04You lied to me!
22:06He suddenly raised his head,
22:07his eyes crimson.
22:08You clearly loved me so much.
22:10How could you not love me?
22:11Is it because of Lillian?
22:14Is it because I replaced
22:15the names with blank paper?
22:16I will change.
22:17I will not replace them anymore.
22:19I will write my name on them
22:21right now!
22:21He frantically pulled out
22:23a fountain pen,
22:24grabbed a slip from the floor,
22:25and was about to write.
22:27Enough!
22:27Alexander's stepping on the hand
22:29he was holding the pen with.
22:30Young Master Ashford,
22:32harassing my fiancé
22:33right in front of me.
22:34Are you not completely
22:36ignoring my existence?
22:39He looked up
22:40and glared angrily at Alexander.
22:42What kind of thing are you?
22:44Eleanor and I grew up together.
22:47You are nothing but a petty man
22:49taking advantage
22:50of a vulnerable moment.
22:51Grew up together?
22:53Alexander let out a scoff,
22:54applying pressure with his foot,
22:56crushing Sebastian's knuckles
22:57until they crack.
22:58Does growing up together
22:59mean making her wait
23:00three hours in a blizzard for you?
23:02Does growing up together
23:03mean making her make a fool
23:04of herself in public
23:05for seven years?
23:07Does growing up together
23:08mean putting her sincere heart
23:10into a paper shredder?
23:11Sebastian's face
23:12was deathly pale.
23:13How do you know?
23:15About the paper shredder.
23:16Only he and Lillian knew.
23:18How could Alexander know?
23:20I looked at his horrified expression
23:21and spoke faintly.
23:22Because I heard it too, Sebastian.
23:25Right before the banquet started,
23:27at the door of the lounge.
23:29Every word you said I heard clearly!
23:31Sebastian's whole body shook,
23:33as if all his strength
23:34had been drained away.
23:35Eleanor, listen to my explanation.
23:38He crawled over,
23:39wanting to grab the hem of my dress.
23:41I was lying to Lillian.
23:42I only told those lies
23:44to comfort Lillian.
23:45I only have you in my heart.
23:47I promise to give you
23:49a grand proposal next year.
23:51Believe me this once.
23:52Okay?
23:53I took a step back,
23:54avoiding his hand.
23:55My eyes looked at him
23:56as if looking at a pile of garbage.
23:58Lie to Lillian?
23:59So in order to lie to her,
24:01you had to sacrifice me?
24:03Sebastian,
24:04your love is too cheap.
24:06Lie to Lillian?
24:07So in order to lie to her,
24:09you had to sacrifice me?
24:11Sebastian,
24:12your love is too cheap.
24:13I, Eleanor Walker,
24:16no longer want you.
24:17After finishing my sentence,
24:19I didn't give him another glance.
24:20Holding Alexander's hand,
24:21I turned and left.
24:23Sebastian,
24:24you are bleeding.
24:25Quick, call a doctor!
24:26It is a sin!
24:27What a sin!
24:29My footsteps didn't stop,
24:30walking out the doors
24:31of the banquet hall.
24:32The night breeze was slightly cool,
24:34blowing away the noise
24:35and foulness inside.
24:37Are you cold?
24:38I shook my head.
24:40Alexander,
24:41Hmm?
24:42Thank you.
24:42You are welcome.
24:43He squeezed my hand tightly,
24:45his palm warm.
24:48Eleanor,
24:49the good show has only just begun.
24:51Sebastian became Wall Street's biggest joke.
24:54The heir publicly rejected,
24:56the fiancé marrying his mortal enemy.
24:58The Ashford group's stock crashed the next day.
25:00The Walkers withdrew capital
25:02and the Thorn group attacked.
25:03The Ashford family teetered on collapse.
25:06Mrs. Ashford was hospitalized.
25:08Mr. Ashford threatened to disown Sebastian.
25:10Meanwhile,
25:11I sat in Alexander's private villa,
25:13startled by the documents in my hands.
25:15Are these real?
25:16I pointed at photos of Lillian partying on a yacht,
25:19embracing them,
25:20with no sign of illness.
25:22Absolutely true.
25:23During those seven years in Switzerland,
25:24she squandered his money,
25:26keeping male models,
25:27gambling,
25:28taking drugs.
25:29I felt utterly disgusted.
25:31Sebastian played the fool
25:32and hurt me for seven years because of her.
25:34Does Sebastian know?
25:35He'll know very soon.
25:37Alexander smiled slyly.
25:38I serve justice for everyone in the Ashford family.
25:41I gasped at the ruthless move.
25:44Lillian would have no place left
25:45and Sebastian would be entirely abandoned.
25:48Alexander leaned closer.
25:50Are you worried about him?
25:51Not at all.
25:52He brought this upon himself.
25:54And you personally sent him to his doom?
25:57Alexander laughed,
25:58scraping my nose.
26:00Such a sweet mouth.
26:02Clearing obstacles for you
26:03is what a husband ought to do.
26:05Just then, my phone rang.
26:07It was Sebastian.
26:08I answered on speaker.
26:10Eleanor, are you with Alexander?
26:12Do you know what Lillian's...
26:13What about her?
26:14I interrupted indifferently.
26:16Was she kicked out of her apartment?
26:17You knew she was lying?
26:19Why didn't you tell me?
26:20I laughed out of anger.
26:21If I told you,
26:22you would just think I was jealous.
26:24Now that the truth is bare,
26:25you don't reflect your vast stupidity
26:27but blame me?
26:27The phone went silent,
26:29save for heavy breathing.
26:30Finally,
26:31Sebastian spoke hoarsely.
26:33Eleanor,
26:33I was wrong.
26:35I kicked Libony out.
26:36Come back, okay?
26:37I will marry you immediately
26:39and listen to you for everything.
26:40I looked at the sunlight,
26:42feeling immense irony.
26:43Deep affection that comes too late
26:45is worthless.
26:46Sebastian,
26:47it's too late.
26:48I am now Mrs. Thorne.
26:50The words Mrs. Thorne
26:52shattered his last hope.
26:53He smashed the phone,
26:54leaving only a busy tone.
26:56Satisfied?
26:57Not yet.
26:58This is just the start.
26:59Days later,
27:00Alexander launched a fierce commercial attack,
27:03seizing Ashford's asset.
27:04Sebastian begged for help,
27:05but former friends all avoided him.
27:07Our engagement party became the talk of the city.
27:10On its eve,
27:11I went to try on my wedding dress.
27:12Outside the boutique,
27:14Lillian blocked my way.
27:15She looked haggard in shabby clothes.
27:17Eleanor,
27:18you ruined me!
27:19She screamed and lunged at me.
27:21Bodyguards held her down at once.
27:23Greed,
27:24vanity,
27:25and lies
27:25destroyed yourself.
27:27Liar!
27:28Sebastian loves only me!
27:30You are just a substitute too!
27:32She retorted.
27:33I pitied her ignorance.
27:34He loves no one but himself.
27:36He enjoyed being fought over.
27:38Now his pride is hurt,
27:40and that is why he is crazy.
27:42Lillian stared blankly.
27:43I told the guards to send her away.
27:45We are all fools!
27:46She cried bitterly.
27:47Just then,
27:48Sebastian arrived in a Bentley,
27:50worn out.
27:50This dress was meant for me,
27:52he said painfully.
27:53I ignored him
27:54and got into Alexander's car.
27:56Do not marry him!
27:58Sebastian shouted desperately.
27:59The car drove off,
28:00leaving him stranded in the cold wind.
28:02The engagement party was lavish,
28:04held at Manhattan's Top Hotel.
28:06Alexander stayed close to me,
28:07caring for me tenderly,
28:09making other guests envious.
28:10As we prepared to exchange rings,
28:12Sebastian burst in,
28:13drunk and messy.
28:15Stop this engagement!
28:17Alexander let him come forward.
28:18Sebastian stumbled onto the stage.
28:20Take off that ring.
28:22I will give you everything I have.
28:24He said,
28:25holding out a crumpled bank card.
28:27You are bankrupt.
28:28This card cannot even buy alcohol.
28:30I replied calmly.
28:31I have lost my family,
28:33company,
28:33and money.
28:35But I still have you.
28:37Will you not stay with me?
28:39Alexander stepped between us.
28:41Respect yourself.
28:42She is my fiancé,
28:43not your savior.
28:45Sebastian was pushed to the ground
28:46and wept like a child.
28:48The crowd looked on with scorn.
28:49No apology can fix everything.
28:51You chose this path,
28:53and you have to see it through,
28:54I told him.
28:55I turned to Alexander.
28:57Put the ring on me.
28:58He slipped the diamond ring onto my finger.
29:01The ceremony ended.
29:02Sebastian stood in the corner,
29:03finally accepting he had lost me forever.
29:06Three years later,
29:07heavy snow covered New York.
29:08Our daughter was just a month old,
29:10and Alexander doted on her deeply.
29:13It is time for work.
29:15Not today.
29:16My daughter comes first.
29:19I heard Sebastian passed away.
29:21He froze to death,
29:22under the Brooklyn Bridge,
29:24together with Lillian.
29:25They fought over a burger
29:27and fell into the river.
29:28I fell silent.
29:29Once prominent figures,
29:30they ended up miserably.
29:32It was their just deserts.
29:33Are you thinking of him?
29:34I kissed him with a smile.
29:38I am planning a candlelit dinner tonight.
29:41His mood brightened at once.
29:42He held our daughter in one arm,
29:44and wrapped the other around me.
29:46Thank you for choosing me.
29:47Thank you for giving me a home.
29:50Leaning on his chest,
29:51the snow fell harder,
29:53burying the sad past.
29:54Our warm and happy life had only just begun,
29:56and Alexander doted on her deeply.
30:00It is time for work.
30:02Not today.
30:02My daughter comes first.
30:05I heard Sebastian passed away.
30:07He froze to death,
30:09under the Brooklyn Bridge,
30:10together with Lillian.
30:12They fought over a burger
30:13and fell into the river.
30:15I fell silent.
30:16Once prominent figures,
30:17they ended up miserably.
30:18It was their just deserts.
30:20Are you thinking of him?
30:21I kissed him with a smile.
30:25I am planning a candlelit dinner tonight.
30:27His mood brightened at once.
30:29He held our daughter in one arm,
30:30and wrapped the other around me.
30:32Thank you for choosing me.
30:33Thank you for giving me a home.
30:36Leaning on his chest,
30:38the snow fell harder,
30:39burying the sad past.
30:41Our warm and happy life had only just begun.
30:43We're gonna be feet ago.
30:43I'll be kitchen.
30:43Thank you.
