00:00Mon frère, Jax, était juste créé au soleil.
00:03Dans sa célébration, il yancé moi dans son lap.
00:05Sa cuirait sur moi, dans un professeur, possessif.
00:09Ses grandes mains royaient mes curves.
00:11Je pouvais sentir qu'il était difficile, son désiré indénuable.
00:13Non ici, save it from home.
00:16Il m'a vouloir reluctantly, et m'a donné un glace de mon vin favorito.
00:19Une seconde plus tard, son le plus confiant à l'intervalle,
00:21a suddenly dit, en sicilien...
00:23Capo, qui est plus de vous à lettre ?
00:24La signora, ou la canarettine que vous gardez au club ?
00:27My blood ran cold, I expected Jax to shut him down instantly.
00:30Instead, he pressed a lingering fake kiss to my temple,
00:34before replying in Sicilian.
00:35C'est une petite fille, je n'ai jamais assez d'elle.
00:38Mais gardez tous les yeux fermés.
00:40Si je ne sais pas, je vais me laisser d'accord.
00:42The men erupted into knowing laughter,
00:44swearing on their lives to keep it quiet.
00:46My knuckles turned white around the stem of my wineglass.
00:49They didn't know my grandfather was from Sicily.
00:51I understood every single word.
00:53I already knew my husband was keeping a little pet on the side.
00:55I didn't scream, didn't throw a fit.
00:58I pulled out my phone, opened my email,
00:59and silently accepted that long, sealed offer
01:02for the top secret medical program.
01:03Three days from now, I'll be gone from Jax's life for good.
01:06Jax's eyes flicked to my untouched wine.
01:08He offered a concerned smile and asked in English,
01:10What's wrong, baby ?
01:11His perfect, loving facade almost made me laugh.
01:14One minute, he's talking trash about another woman
01:16in my grandfather's tongue.
01:17The next, he's looking at me like I'm his entire world.
01:20I couldn't help but wonder how thick his mask really was.
01:23Nothing.
01:24What were you guys talking about?
01:25He lied without missing a beat.
01:27Just family business.
01:29I didn't want to ruin your mood with that dark shit,
01:31so we switched from English.
01:33I scoffed.
01:33He must be fucking her so much he'd forgotten I was half Italian.
01:36He forgot I could understand him.
01:37I forced a smile, but a suffocating pain gripped my chest.
01:40Carry on then.
01:41I'm going out for some fresh air.
01:42I pushed him away and walked to the balcony alone.
01:44Along the way, the envious whispers of the guests filled my ears.
01:47See that? Even with Aurora's family wiped out, her position as Donna is rock solid.
01:51Everyone knows the boss worships her.
01:52For her last birthday, he bought out a whole bay in Hawaii.
01:54He flew in 90,000 rows as they nearly covered the entire beach.
01:56Yeah, I'd kill for a man like that.
01:58Those words used to fill me with warmth.
01:59Now, nothing, just a hollow echo.
02:02Nobody knew that this man, who supposedly lived and breathed only for me,
02:06had already betrayed me.
02:07Just yesterday, I snuck into his office to surprise him.
02:09I waited in his private lounge so long I almost fell asleep.
02:12Then, a muffled moan woke me up.
02:14I opened my eyes through the one-way glass.
02:15I saw the man who swore to be faithful to me forever.
02:19He had Scarlet, his club manager, pinned against his desk.
02:21He was fucking her brains out.
02:23He was so rough, so desperate.
02:25His shirt was ripped open, exposing his tense, sculpted muscles at their pee.
02:30He let her bite his neck, right on the tattoo.
02:32The one he got for me.
02:33My initials.
02:34Did I hurt you?
02:36Boss, I want a mark too.
02:38Done.
02:39I'll brand my name on you.
02:41Somewhere sweet.
02:43Somewhere only I can see it.
02:44Her scream of ecstasy was the sound of my soul shattering.
02:48I knew right then.
02:49My marriage died.
02:50Now, the cold wind on the balcony blew away the fog of my memories.
02:54My phone buzzed.
02:55It was my advisor, Professor Luca Moretti.
02:56Ever since I graduated grad school, he'd asked me to join his research more than once.
03:00I picked up.
03:01Aurora, I saw you accepted the offer.
03:03Five years ago you gave up everything for Jax, and now I'm glad you're back.
03:08The military will send for you in three days.
03:10You can spend these days saying goodbye to your family.
03:11The word family stung so bad it burned my eyes.
03:15Ever since my parents died in the accident.
03:17Jax was the only family I had, but now he didn't deserve that title.
03:20No need, Professor.
03:21Please use the project's highest security clearance to wipe my identity completely.
03:24Why?
03:25Once your identity's gone, you'll vanish off the face of the earth.
03:28Jax's ex would lose mine if he can't find you.
03:29You two were supposed to be it, weren't you?
03:31He cheated on me.
03:32My eyes burned.
03:33Five years.
03:33Five invitations.
03:34These hands that were supposed to cure diseases only ever stitched Jax's wounds and pulled out shrapnel.
03:39I gave up everything and got nothing in return.
03:41He sighed after a long silence.
03:43Yesterday when you accepted out of the blue, I knew something was off.
03:46But, all right, I'll arrange it.
03:48Just take care of your things these next three days.
03:51Thank you, Professor.
03:53I finally let out a breath when he agreed.
03:55The moment I hung up, a deep voice sounded from behind me.
03:57Who betrayed who?
04:00I turned around and met Jax's concerned eyes.
04:03A friend of mine, her husband cheated, and they're in the middle of a nasty split.
04:07Jax's tense gaze searched my face.
04:10Finding nothing unusual, he finally relaxed, pulled me into his arms.
04:13Don't worry, baby.
04:14Betrayal is something that will never happen with me.
04:16I looked into his incredibly sincere eyes and couldn't help but ask.
04:20There aren't if it does.
04:21There aren't my heart, my body.
04:22They're yours.
04:23Only yours.
04:23I said, what if?
04:25Then punish me by making it so I can never find you.
04:28You need to know you're my whole life.
04:30If you vanish, I don't want to live anymore.
04:32I curled my lips into a small smile and didn't reply.
04:35Jax, your punishment is coming soon.
04:37In three days, I will evaporate from your world entirely.
04:39Jax was about to say something else when a cool female voice interrupted him.
04:43Boss, everything is ready.
04:45Jax just nodded expressionlessly and waved her off.
04:48Their flawless act made my stomach turn.
04:50They both deserved an Oscar.
04:52If I hadn't seen them going at it like animals on that desk yesterday,
04:54I'd still be playing the fool.
04:56Baby, I have a surprise for you.
04:57One, two, five, four, three.
05:01At zero, he dropped his hand.
05:02I opened my eyes.
05:03Maybe the entire Chicago sky exploded in life.
05:07Fireworks bloomed into roses, my favorite.
05:09Finally, they burned a massive J and A into the darkness.
05:11Baby, we've been together for ten whole years.
05:15Yeah, ten years.
05:16Nineteen to twenty-nine.
05:17A decade.
05:18Long enough to turn the boy who adored me into a complete stranger.
05:21Long enough to turn a passionate romance into cold, calculated deceit.
05:25He looked at me with deep affection and slowly leaned in for a kiss.
05:29Just as I was about to turn my head away, the private phone in his pocket buzzed.
05:33I gave orders.
05:34No interruptions today.
05:35But when he saw the name on the screen, he went stiff for a split second.
05:38Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a single letter glowing on the screen.
05:42S. Jax cleared his throat, smoothly tilting the screen away from me as he typed out a quick reply.
05:47Baby, I'm so sorry. Emergency at the club. I have to go. I-
05:50Go. Business first.
05:52I didn't have the energy for his bullshit.
05:54Jax let out a breath of relief.
05:55Normally, he wouldn't leave without a deep, passionate kiss.
05:58But this time, he just rushed a quick peck to my forehead and strode away.
06:01I watched him go.
06:02Then, I told the butler to handle the rest of the party and quietly followed Jax.
06:08He drove like a maniac all the way to the underground parking garage.
06:11Jax, those fireworks were gorgeous.
06:13I'm so jealous, I'm going crazy.
06:15I gave you a club for your birthday. Wasn't that enough?
06:18I made you a promise.
06:19Be a good girl, keep Allura out of it, and I'll make it up to you.
06:22You know I will.
06:23My nails dug hard into my palms.
06:25Last night, Flax was tied up in a gang war in the west side,
06:28and the rival faction was uprooted overnight.
06:31He was carried back covered in blood, shot three times.
06:34I stayed awake for three whole days and nights, pulling him back from the brink of death.
06:38The day he regained consciousness,
06:39He stroked my haggard face with tender remorse.
06:42Baby, they struck first, I couldn't back down.
06:45Now, I finally understood.
06:46All that bloodshed was nothing more than a gift to please his little mistress,
06:50and I was nothing but a ridiculous joke.
06:52Scarlet pouted, drawing lazy circles over his solid chest with her fingertip.
06:56I was just jealous.
06:58Jax grabbed her wandering hand, his voice thick.
07:00Didn't you say you had something good to show me?
07:03Scarlet yanked his tie.
07:04The boss has to unwrap it himself.
07:06I promise to make you feel so good, you'll think you didn't went to heaven.
07:11He scooped her up effortlessly, and shoved her into the back seat of his bulletproof escalator.
07:15Scarlet let out a gasp, and the heavy SUV began to rock the steady, punishing bullet,
07:20leaning against the freezing concrete pillar.
07:22Finally let my tears fall.
07:23They hit the ground in heavy drops.
07:25I had literally watched them fuck yesterday.
07:27It stinks again today.
07:28My heart still ached like I'd caught a bullet to the chest.
07:30When we first got married, Jax swore he'd only celebrate every important occasion with me from then on.
07:35But one text from Scarlet, and he dumped me to run to her.
07:37Was he that obsessed with her?
07:39I closed my eyes and forced the suffocating emotions down.
07:42Three more days.
07:43Just three more days, and this would all be over.
07:46I didn't go back to the party.
07:47I went straight home.
07:48I was half asleep in the middle of the night when a loud crash jilted me away.
07:51Jax stood in the doorway, his face tight with anxiety.
07:54His rigid frame only relaxed the moment he laid eyes on me.
07:59Baby, why did you leave without telling me?
08:02I finished dealing with the rat and went to find you, but you were gone.
08:05I was losing my damn mind.
08:07I glanced at the clock.
08:08I had been home since 9pm.
08:10He and Scarlet had been screwing for six solid hours.
08:14What a joke.
08:15I wasn't feeling well, so I came back early.
08:19Forgot to text you.
08:20I was now able to bullshit him without batting an eye.
08:23Next time, you have to tell me, baby.
08:26If you ever disappear on me, I swear to God, I don't know what crazy shit I'd do.
08:29Promise me you'll never leave me.
08:31I closed my eyes and didn't answer.
08:33After all, in three days, he would never find me again.
08:35The next morning, perhaps out of guilt,
08:37Jax had someone deliver an extremely rare pink diamond necklace.
08:41Baby, yesterday was my fault.
08:44Please don't be mad at me.
08:45I barely glanced at the diamonds before tossing them aside.
08:47I'm not mad.
08:48This is my gift for you, but you have to open it in two days.
08:52Originally, I got him custom-made cufflinks.
08:53I threw them in the fireplace and replaced them with divorce papers.
08:56This would be the last thing I ever gave him.
08:59Jax took the box, looking curious.
09:01Why two days?
09:02Because it's a surprise.
09:04It won't mean anything unless you open it in two days.
09:07Okay.
09:08Whatever you say, baby.
09:09Two days.
09:17Jax took the box, looking curious.
09:18Pure panic flashed across Jax's face.
09:21Baby, it's urgent gang manners.
09:23I'll handle it in the garden so I don't ruin your breakfast.
09:25I walked to the study window on the second floor,
09:28just in time to watch the scene unfold below.
09:31Are you out of your fucking mind?
09:35I warned you never to come here.
09:36If Aurora finds out, I will skin you alive.
09:39She pulled a piece of paper from her bag and shoved it at him.
09:43I know I shouldn't be here, but I'm pregnant.
09:47The doctor said we were too rough.
09:49The baby isn't stable.
09:51I'm so scared, Jax.
09:53Is our baby going to be okay?
09:54This is your first child.
09:55My whole body froze.
09:57It felt like a giant, invisible hand had just crushed my heart.
10:00I couldn't breathe.
10:05When we first got married, we talked about having kids.
10:08Jax told me children would be a weakness, and he only wanted to give all his love to me.
10:13Back then, I was so moved by his devotion.
10:16Now, I finally understood.
10:17He didn't not want kids.
10:18He just didn't want me to have them.
10:20Jax looked shocked at first.
10:22The fury in his eyes twisted into a dark, complex ecstasy.
10:37Scarlet finally smiled through her tears.
10:39Standing on her tiptoes to kiss him, Jax's eyes darkened.
10:42He took control, gripping the back of her head to deepen the kiss.
10:46They made out fiercely until Scarlet was gasping for air.
10:49You're pregnant and still trying to seduce me?
10:52Be a good girl and wait in the car.
10:54I actually felt a sick wave of relief.
10:57Thank God we didn't have kids.
10:59Now, I could leave without any strings attached.
11:01The second Jax pushed the door open, that familiar apologetic look was back on his face.
11:06Baby, an emergency came up on the west coast.
11:09I have to go deal with it right now.
11:11Stay home and be good.
11:12I'll bring you a present when I get back.
11:14I nodded, seeing my calm expression.
11:17He finally left with peace of mind.
11:19I stared at his retreating back, then at the calendar on the table.
11:22Two days left.
11:24This was probably the last time I'd ever see him.
11:28That afternoon, I got a text from an unknown number.
11:31It was a picture of the ultrasound scan.
11:34I'm pregnant with Jax's baby, his useless orphan.
11:37If you have any sense, you'll pack your shit and get out of that mansion.
11:40Make room for me and my baby.
11:42I knew it was Scarlet.
11:43I guess the kid in her belly gave her the balls to challenge me.
11:46But I was already leaving, and my heart was already dead to Jax.
11:50Seeing that scan made me feel absolutely nothing.
11:52For the next two days, Jax didn't come home.
11:55I used the time to erase every single trace of myself from that house.
11:59I donated what I could, burned the rest, and only kept the bare essentials.
12:03On the day I left, I woke up early.
12:05I left my suitcase by the door and waited for the lab's car, just as I was about to call
12:09my professor.
12:10Scarlet texted me again.
12:11It was a photo.
12:12She was standing in a sea of flowers, wearing a pure white wedding dress.
12:17And Jax was down on one knee, slipping a ring on her finger.
12:20Jax proposed to me.
12:21We're getting married today.
12:23He's giving me and our baby the status we deserve.
12:25This is just the beginning.
12:27He said it's rushed.
12:28But he's giving me the best of everything to make me the happiest bride in the world.
12:32The next time he comes home, he'll be throwing divorce papers in your face.
12:36Have some dignity and walk out yourself.
12:38I'm going to be the lady of that house real soon.
12:40This time, I replied, congratulations.
12:44Right after I hit send, my ride arrived.
12:47I dragged my suitcase out and got in the car.
12:49We were stopped at a red light when a convoy of black SUVs roared past us.
12:54I looked over out of habit.
12:56Jax was in the back of the Rolls Royce in a sharp tailored suit.
12:59He was looking at Scarlet with eyes full of tenderness, clasping a necklace around her neck.
13:03He suddenly turned his head.
13:05Through the gap in the window, our eyes locked across the rushing traffic.
13:08His eyes, which had been full of lust just a second ago, widened the moment he recognized me.
13:13His pupils shrank.
13:15Raw terror and sheer despair flooded them.
13:18Deadpan, I told my driver to roll up the window.
13:21The next second, my phone started vibrating like crazy.
13:25I stared at the name Jax, flashing on the screen.
13:28I didn't answer, as the car drove over a bridge.
13:31I rolled the window down and tossed the phone straight into the freezing waters of Lake Michigan,
13:36at the private airstrip.
13:37I met my professor's friend, and boarded the private jet heading to the Blacksite research base.
13:42Meanwhile, Jax stared at his unanswered phone, desperately trying to convince himself.
13:47Aurora is just sleeping.
13:50She felt smug again, that he finally called back.
13:54Jax, the wedding isn't over yet.
13:56I'm sure our baby wants to see mommy and daddy finish their vows, right?
14:00At the mention of the kid.
14:02She figured she was about to become the official Donna in-
14:06Hello.
14:07Boss, something's wrong. The Donna, she's gone.
14:15I realized it wasn't just a look-alike. It was really Aurora.
14:19She didn't just leave him.
14:21She saw his betrayal with her own eyes before she left.
14:24She might have even watched the whole damn wedding.
14:26Extreme regret and fear completely swallowed him.
14:30Jax's face turned pale as he roared into the phone.
14:34He didn't even change out of his tuxedo before rushing for the door.
14:37Scarlet grabbed his arm, rubbing her belly and looking pitiful.
14:42Jax, my stomach hurts. I think the baby is kicking.
14:45She wanted to play the spoiled new wife.
14:47Get the fuck off me.
14:49He shoved Scarlet aside.
14:51I'm going to find Aurora.
14:53Scarlet hit the marble floor of the church,
14:55her white wedding dress spreading out like dead petals.
15:00Jax left her behind and sped off in his car.
15:03Track Aurora's every move.
15:05Airports, train stations, hotels.
15:07Pull every damn security tape.
15:09Boss, there are no departure records for the Donna.
15:12Keep looking. She can't just vanish into flir and air.
15:15Boss, no hotel has any check-in under her name.
15:20But every answer was exactly the same.
15:23No such person.
15:24A top secret military clearance was in effect.
15:27It was even emptier than the butler had said.
15:28Her half of the walk-in closet was bare.
15:31Even the bathroom only had his toiletries left.
15:33It was like she had never lived there.
15:35Jax was losing his mind.
15:36It's not a lover spat!
15:38Aurora isn't like that!
15:40Someone...
15:41Someone must have kidnapped her!
15:44The butler looked at his crazed state.
15:46The boss knew damn well why his wife left.
15:48For the next 24 hours,
15:50Jax questioned every friend and relative.
15:53He had his men turn Chicago upside down.
15:55He used every connection.
15:57Even his moles in the FBI.
15:59Nothing.
16:00Aurora was a ghost.
16:01He sat alone in the empty mansion all night, clutching our wedding photo.
16:05His eyes were hollow like a dead man's.
16:07Just as Jax was about to tap into the dark web to find her,
16:10his underboss Marco rushed in.
16:12Boss.
16:12The divers found this at the bottom of Lake Michigan.
16:14He carefully handed over a phone.
16:16The screen was shattered, but the motherboard was intact.
16:19The tech guys recovered the data overnight.
16:21Jax's heart leaped to his throat.
16:23He took the phone with shaking hands.
16:24He instantly recognized it as Aurora's personal phone.
16:28Why was it in the lake?
16:29Did Aurora really know?
16:31Impossible.
16:32He pressed the power button.
16:33His fingers trembling.
16:34The screen lit up.
16:36The messaging app was frozen on a chat between Aurora and an unknown number.
16:40Jax's pupil shrank.
16:41He didn't know the number, but the texts made his blood freeze.
16:44A photo of an ultrasound.
16:46A photo of Scarlet in her wedding dress.
16:48And those arrogant, taunting messages.
16:50I'm pregnant with Jax's baby.
16:52His first child.
16:53You useless orphan.
16:55If you know what's good for you, pack your bags and get out of that mansion.
16:58Jax proposed to me.
16:59We're getting married today.
17:00He said he wants to do right by me and the baby.
17:03The next time he comes home, he'll throw divorce papers in your face.
17:06If you have any dignity left, leave on your own.
17:08And she only replied with one word.
17:10Congratulations.
17:16Aurora's effortless congratulations hit Jax like a brutal slap across the face, shattering
17:22his delusions.
17:23His eyes went bloodshot, burning with rage.
17:25He finally understood how she was in front of a jealous tantrum.
17:29She had seen right through his betrayal and calmly walked away from this marriage,
17:32like walking to the gallows.
17:34Jax roared, smashing the phone against the wall.
17:37It shattered into pieces, just like his heart.
17:40He immediately took his men and stormed the luxury condo on the west side.
17:43It was the bridal suite he bought for Scarlet, worth millions, decorated like a palace.
17:48Just days ago, he had been looking forward to their new life there.
17:52Now, he only wanted to rip apart the woman who ruined everything.
17:56Scarlet was lying on silk sheets in a see-through nightgown.
17:59She swallowed the humiliation of being left at the altar, waiting for her new husband to
18:03come back and comfort her, hearing the door open.
18:06Who gave you the nerve to provoke my wife?
18:09She turned and listened to her smile before she could finish.
18:12Dax's hand wrapped around her throat.
18:14His face was as dark as a demon's, his eyes burning with hellfire.
18:18Scarlet's eyes rolled back as he choked her.
18:20She clawed frantically at his arm.
18:33You don't know.
18:35He let go, letting her collapse onto the bed.
18:38He pulled out a spare phone and brought up the chat logs.
18:40Here's your damn proof!
18:42Seeing those glaring screenshots.
18:45Jax, I just, I just wanted to be official.
18:48Aurora is gone now.
18:50Shut up!
18:51A vicious backhand to her face, half her face swelling up instantly.
18:55Jax, you can't do this to me!
18:57I'm carrying your baby!
18:59Your first child!
19:01He needs a father!
19:03You promised us a family!
19:04The word baby, a complicated look flashed across Jax's eyes.
19:08It was true.
19:09It was his first child.
19:10He had been thrilled.
19:11But now, he finally saw the unborn child, not as his heir, but as the very weapons
19:17Scarlet used to destroy his marriage.
19:18His anticipation instantly turned into pure, murderous hatred.
19:22If this kid is the reason Aurora left, then I don't want it.
19:25It always sounded like it came straight from hell.
19:27I warned you.
19:28The title of Donna belongs to Aurora always.
19:30You're just a toy, a replacement.
19:33You thought a baby would make you the boss's wife?
19:36Keep dreaming.
19:37Scarlet hit rock bottom.
19:38She realized she hadn't just lost Jax.
19:39She was going to lose the baby too.
19:41No, Jax!
19:42I'm begging you!
19:44This is our baby!
19:45We just got married!
19:47Jax was completely swallowed by rage and pain.
19:50He clapped his hands.
19:51Two massive bodyguards walked in, standing deadpanned by the bed.
19:55They were his most ruthless enforcers.
19:57The ones who handled his messy problems.
19:59Jax looked at the shivering Scarlet without an ounce of alcohol cost.
20:03Aurora, she cost him the only true love of his life she had to pay.
20:08It's not my child.
20:09It's nothing.
20:10Take it out.
20:12Jax's voice was sharp as a knife.
20:15No!
20:18Jax!
20:20You can't!
20:21Take her to a clinic.
20:22Jax ordered, ignoring her wails.
20:24Clean it out, then dump her outside of Chicago.
20:27Make sure she never comes back.
20:29The enforcer stepped up, rubbing Scarlet by the arms.
20:31She thrashed wildly, but she was no match for two heavyweights.
20:34Scarlet's voice was hoarse, tears streaming down her face.
20:37Hours ago, she was a radiant bride.
20:40Jax, I'm begging you for what we had for the baby.
20:44Now, she was a stray dog.
20:46The fall from heaven to hell was driving her insane.
20:50I gave you a chance.
20:52Aurora is my life.
20:54You touched her, so you chose death.
20:58Scarlet's desperate screams were shut behind the door.
21:00Jax didn't even bother to look back.
21:02With Scarlet dealt with, Jax threw his entire empire into finding her.
21:06He used every connection, but everyone gave him the exact same answer.
21:09Boss, the Donna is truly gone.
21:14Days later, coming back to the empty mansion felt like sheer hell for Jax.
21:18Their memories haunted him like ghosts, keeping him awake.
21:20Her favorite coffee mug was still in the kitchen.
21:23Her half-read book was still in the study.
21:26A bookmark wedged at page 237.
21:29The bedroom even still carried the faint scent of her perfume.
21:32A month went by.
21:34Suddenly, something hit Jax.
21:35The box Aurora gave him before she left.
21:37The one she told him to open in two days.
21:39Back then, he was too wrapped up in Scarlet's bed to care.
21:42Now, he realized it might be the last clue Aurora left him.
21:45With shaking hands, Jax pulled the elegant box from the safe.
21:48His heart was pounding like a drum.
21:50Maybe it was a letter explaining why she left.
21:52Maybe a photo of their beautiful past.
21:54He took a deep breath.
21:55With the desperate hope of a dying man, he slowly opened it.
21:58But there was no gift inside.
22:00No letter.
22:00Just a set of divorce papers already signed with her name.
22:03Black and white.
22:04Hold and ruthless.
22:07Aurora.
22:11Jax's world caved in.
22:12The last spark of hope was brutally snuffed out.
22:15A painful truth hit him.
22:20Catching the papers tightly to his chest, tears streamed on his face.
22:24She was never coming back.
22:26Meanwhile, I had long left that toxic past behind.
22:29Within a top secret military medical base, I threw myself wholeheartedly into medical
22:33technology research.
22:34I was completely isolated.
22:35No cell service.
22:36No outside noise.
22:38My mentor gave me a codename.
22:39Phoenix.
22:40A bird reborn from the fire.
22:41It suited me perfectly.
22:43From the ashes of Jax, I rose again.
22:45High-intensity experiments consumed all my time.
22:48I woke up at 5 a.m. and worked until midnight.
22:50Standing at the lab bench for over a dozen hours straight.
22:52My hands grew rough from the gloves.
22:54My eyes burned from staring at screens.
22:56I had never felt more fulfilled.
22:59We successfully developed a targeted anti-cancer preparation.
23:03It can not only drastically lower the post-operative infection rate to an extremely low level.
23:08This is arguably the most pivotal breakthrough in humanity's battle against malignant tumors.
23:12And cleared even more funding for us.
23:14The team decided to throw a celebration banquet just outside the base for this milestone.
23:18I put on an evening gown for the first time in forever and did some light makeup.
23:21The woman in the mirror was still beautiful, but her eyes held a new cold maturity.
23:25The banquet was at a high-end hotel.
23:27Only core team members and senior base administrators were invited.
23:31Holding a glass of champagne, I chatted with colleagues about data and research.
23:35This pure, academic vibe gave me a joy I'd never known.
23:41Ladies and gentlemen, we have a special guest making a toast tonight.
23:46He is the largest private investor in our project.
23:49I frowned.
23:50The project was military classified.
23:53Why was there a private investor?
23:56A second later, a familiar figure appeared at the ballroom door.
24:15It was Jax.
24:17General Smith.
24:19The head of the project stood up and personally escorted Jax to the head table.
24:28Everyone, this is our biggest private investor.
24:33Thanks to his funding, our research has reached this milestone today.
24:38My champagne glass trembled slightly in my hand.
24:40That's when I realized Jax hadn't just used his mafia ties.
24:44He had liquidated half of his clean corporate empire,
24:47funneling billions through anonymous tech foundations just to secure a spot as a crucial civilian
24:53contractor for the military.
24:55All just to buy a single ticket into the base.
24:57The mighty godfather of the Chicago Mafia had practically bankrupted his legitimate fronts
25:03just to see my face.
25:04At the table, Jax's eyes never left me.
25:07They tracked my every move, burning and desperate.
25:09I could feel his stare like a physical weight, but I ignored him completely.
25:13I cut my stake elegantly, discussing data with a researcher next to me, acting as if Jax didn't
25:18exist in this world.
25:19Six months of science had taught me absolute composure.
25:23Miss Phoenix, wait a moment.
25:24When the banquet ended, I stood up to leave.
25:26Our investor would like a private word with you regarding our next phase.
25:30I nodded, giving a professional smile.
25:32Of course, General.
25:33I walked quickly toward the base dorms, wanting to end this awkward charade as soon as possible.
25:37But on the heavily guarded tree-lined path, Jax blocked my way.
25:41The once arrogant Mafia godfather now looked pathetic.
25:43His tailored suit hung loosely on his frame.
25:46His eyes bloodshot like a desperate, cornered beast.
25:49Aurora, please, just listen to me.
25:51His voice was raspy.
25:53In just six months, he looked like a shell of his former self.
25:59I spent six months looking for you.
26:01I donated every liquid asset I had.
26:06Laundered half my empire just to buy this one meeting.
26:09I looked at him calmly.
26:11Sir, I think you have the wrong person.
26:13Aurora doesn't exist anymore.
26:15My tone is cold as a stranger's.
26:17I'm just a researcher named Phoenix now.
26:20And I am nobody's wife.
26:23Besides, your new wife Scarlet should be due soon, right?
26:27Congratulations on being a father.
26:29Pain flashed in Jax's eyes.
26:31Aurora, no.
26:32Aurora, let me explain.
26:33I took care of Scarlet and the baby.
26:35You'll never see them again.
26:37I was wrong.
26:38I was so fucking wrong.
26:40Please come home with me.
26:41We can start over.
26:42I watched him quietly, far from being moved.
26:45I felt a bone-deep chill.
26:46He was actually that cruel to his own flesh and blood.
26:49A baby he had been absolutely thrilled about not long ago.
26:52He killed his own unborn child without a second thought.
26:55This man was cold-blooded to the core.
26:58Only now did I truly see the monster I used to love.
27:01You know what, Jax?
27:02My voice cut like a knife.
27:04Even without Scarlet, we were done.
27:07The second you bent her over your desk in that office, it was over.
27:12Jax recoiled like he'd been struck by lightning stumbling back.
27:15He begged like a dog.
27:18No, no.
27:19Aurora, I can change.
27:21I'll do anything to make it up to you.
27:23Please forgive me just this once.
27:25I swear, I will never-
27:28You betray me once, you're dead to me.
27:30I stepped back, putting distance between us.
27:33Jax, in my book, you've already been handed a death sentence.
27:38There are no pardons.
27:40My voice was terrifyingly calm.
27:42The Aurora you want died six months ago.
27:47The woman standing in front of you is Phoenix.
27:50A security noticed the commotion and jogged over.
27:52Ms. Phoenix, is there a problem?
27:53No.
27:54This gentleman just mistook me for someone else, I said flatly.
27:57The guard stepped in, grabbing a hysterical Jax.
28:00Sir, you need to come with us.
28:01I turned and walked toward the top secret bulletproof glass doors.
28:05Behind me, Jax roared in absolute despair.
28:08Aurora!
28:08If I hadn't cheated!
28:12If I had stopped in time, would you have stayed?
28:16If I had never touched Scarlet, would we still be together?
28:20My footsteps paused for a split second.
28:22If, if you hadn't betrayed me, yes, we'd still be deeply in love.
28:27But I swiped my keycard deadpan and walked through the doors without looking back.
28:31After all, in this world, there are no ifs.
