00:00In Cross's dirty little secret, I accidentally found a hidden 10-carat diamond ring in his things.
00:05Eight years. He's finally giving me a home.
00:10Scrolling Instagram, I stumbled on a video of viral star Vanessa Sterling
00:14locked in a passionate kiss with none other than Damien Cross.
00:18I've been overseas for eight years. You waited for me the whole time.
00:21I'm finally going to marry you.
00:23I tracked their location from the video.
00:25Grand Prosperity Hotel.
00:35To Grand Prosperity Hotel. Step on it!
00:52We couldn't save the baby. A family member needs to sign the papers.
00:58I called Damien 18 times straight. He never picked up. Not even once.
01:04On the 18th ring, the call finally connected.
01:08Babe, is that your little shadow calling to check up on you again?
01:10Ignore her. She's just your stand-in. A pathetic orphan.
01:13Even if she finds out about us, she won't dare cause problems.
01:16I just keep her around as a free-living maid. I can fuck whenever I want.
01:23They don't know. I'm the true Sterling heir.
01:30Mom, I've made up my mind.
01:32I'm going home to take over the family business.
01:35I'll agree to the arranged marriage you set up.
01:38But I want Vanessa exhaled from the Sterling family permanently.
01:44Done. I'll handle it myself, sweetheart.
01:47You wouldn't have spent a decade in an orphanage if Nancy Marilla Hayes hadn't swapped us while I was unconscious
01:53post-labor.
01:56Thank you, Mom.
01:58Next week is your real birthday.
01:59I'm throwing you the biggest welcome home party.
02:02The arranged marriage candidates all set.
02:05Whatever you think is best, Mom.
02:11The unloved one is the real side chick.
02:14A month ago, when you got robbed overseas and begged for help,
02:18Damien was two streets away in a hotel room.
02:20He fucked me seven times that night.
02:25This car accident was just a warning.
02:27If you keep clinging to Damien like the desperate little leech you are,
02:31next time I won't miss.
02:34She tried to kill you.
02:37She killed my baby.
02:39Mother, help me dig out every detail of this accident.
02:50Happy anniversary, babe.
02:52Sorry I'm late.
02:53You're not mad, right?
02:55What are you doing here?
02:57I was worried about you after the crash.
02:59I put my phone on silent by mistake.
03:01Didn't see your calls.
03:04Check out this video.
03:06The phone's on the table.
03:12This video isn't what it looks like.
03:14I was only putting on an act with the Sterling for business.
03:17And what about me?
03:18What am I in all this?
03:20Just hold on for one more week, okay?
03:23You've always been so understanding.
03:25Once we go public, I'm throwing you the wedding of your dreams.
03:30Okay, I get it.
03:33I knew you wouldn't hold it against me.
03:39Damien, babe, I twisted my ankle so bad.
03:41It hurts like hell.
03:42Can you come get me?
03:44How are you this careless?
03:45Don't move.
03:46I'm coming right now.
03:49Babe, I'll only be gone a minute.
03:50She's a girl alone out there.
03:51It's not safe.
03:56Damien Cross, we don't have a ninth year.
04:05Audrey, why are you quitting?
04:06You're next in line for the promotion.
04:08I'm heading home to get married.
04:09I'll be working on that side from now on.
04:10But aren't you an orphan?
04:13I found my family.
04:15Congratulations.
04:16What family?
04:22Everyone, I'm Vanessa Sterling, your new Chief Technology Officer.
04:29Nice to meet you, Director Sterling.
04:30Everyone.
04:31She isn't just our new director.
04:32She's my fiancée.
04:36I heard she's the Sterling heiress.
04:38Such a good match.
04:39Look at that ring.
04:40Isn't that a limited Cartier?
04:42Audrey has given everything to this company.
04:44She was supposed to be promoted to director soon.
04:46Shh.
04:46Keep it down.
04:47Ms. Sterling is an actual heiress.
04:48Marrying into the Sterling family means the company will skyrocket.
04:51We'll be engaged soon.
04:53Everyone's invited to the celebration.
05:07I'm resigning.
05:11Quit?
05:12What kind of stun are you trying to pull now?
05:14Damien, babe, don't be so harsh on her.
05:17Audrey's probably still recovering from the accident.
05:19Audrey, don't do anything impulsive.
05:21You're a founding member of the company.
05:23How can you just walk away like this?
05:25What I do has nothing to do with you.
05:27She's always been spoiled.
05:30Audrey, I brought you into this company out of pity.
05:33Without me, what would an orphan like you have achieved?
05:38Mr. Cross, no matter what the reason is, you don't get to stop me from quitting.
05:43Enough with the drama.
05:44I was going to promote you eventually.
05:46What's the rush?
05:48Mr. Cross, I've made my decision.
05:50Vanessa is competent, highly educated, and holds a doctorate from a top overseas university.
05:55She deserves this position.
05:56Do you?
05:57You're right.
05:58I can't compare to her.
05:59So, I quit.
06:10Audrey, don't be angry.
06:12Damien's just bad with words, but he actually cares about you so much.
06:18Vanessa, my relationship with Damien has nothing to do with you.
06:20Haven't you always wanted to marry Damien?
06:22Then I'll let you feel what a 10-carat diamond actually weighs.
06:30Audrey, do you want to marry Damien that badly?
06:33If you wanted to try on my engagement ring, you could have just asked nicely.
06:38Why did you have to push me?
06:41Who the hell wants your ring?
06:43I...
06:43But you literally snatched the ring right off my hand.
06:47Audrey, you didn't actually...
06:49You're in their little games, huh?
06:52I ignored her fake act.
06:53All I wanted was to take off this ring that's too small for my finger.
07:00I fell, dropping the clay pendant we made together.
07:04Damien stared at it, and I expected him to pick it up.
07:13What the hell's gotten into you?
07:15You're acting like a crazy, jealous woman!
07:18Was Audrey Mr. Cross a side piece this whole time?
07:20He probably kept her around out of pity.
07:21How pathetic, trying to steal his fiancé's ring.
07:25I didn't take her ring.
07:26She forced it on me herself.
07:28But you literally snatched the ring right off my hand.
07:33You don't deserve this ring.
07:34Give it back to Vanessa.
07:39My fiancé has always been Vanessa.
07:42Audrey and I are nothing more than boss and employee.
07:55Then that is it.
07:56Mr. Cross, I won't make a scene again.
08:00Four days until my birthday party.
08:02I got home and started packing up every trace of the life I'd built with him.
08:08Every single item once held warm memories.
08:11Yet now I'm going to sever all of the past with my own hands.
08:20Baby, I miss you so much.
08:22Don't be mad at me.
08:31Baby, where's my breakfast?
08:34Forgot to make it.
08:35I didn't mean what happened yesterday.
08:37Vanessa's a sterling airness.
08:38I can't afford to upset her.
08:40Don't be jealous, okay?
08:42Okay.
08:44Baby, let's head to the private hot spring resort tonight.
08:47It's all my fault.
08:48I'll make it up to you.
08:49I just remembered.
08:51We hung a love lock there eight years ago.
08:54I need to cut that old padlock off for good.
08:58I've got an expected business trip.
09:00We'll go another day.
09:02Baby, mommy and daddy can't wait to meet you.
09:06Daddy will love mommy dearly.
09:08I waited for him to come get me, but he's off with Vanessa again.
09:10Fine.
09:11I'll put an end to all this alone.
09:21Sorry, miss.
09:22The entire resort has been booked exclusively by Miss Sterling and Mr. Cross for tonight.
09:27This is the Sterling family privilege card.
09:29I need to get inside.
09:35Damien, you actually still remember our love lock?
09:38Of course I do.
09:39I come back every year to make sure it's still intact.
09:43Vanessa, I've been waiting for you all this time.
09:45Then why do you bring other women here every single year?
09:49Don't mention her.
09:50She's nothing but a substitute.
09:52I missed you so badly that I had to find someone who looked a little like you just to ease
09:55the loneliness.
10:00I turned around and left.
10:01No need to remove the padlock beneath that pink heart.
10:04Our love lock never really existed.
10:06I booked a flight back home.
10:08In three days, my grand comeback birthday ceremony will kick off.
10:14For the next three days, Damien paraded Vanessa across half the globe.
10:18Every city they landed in, she snapped pictures, checked in.
10:21Their couple photos flooded the internet under the headline Power Couple Goals.
10:24My birthday party live stream is in three days.
10:27Everyone come watch my fairy tale moment.
10:34Vanessa, you look absolutely stunning today.
10:37Oh my god, my necklace is gone.
10:39It was left to me by my father.
10:42Isn't that Audrey?
10:44What's she doing here?
10:47Just look at her outfit.
10:49She clearly doesn't belong here.
10:50She must be the one who stole it.
10:52Do you have any proof?
10:53I stole anything?
10:55How could a wild girl from the orphanage have clean hands?
11:07Why do you always embarrass me?
11:09Hand it over.
11:10We're leaving right now.
11:11I didn't take it.
11:13You tried to steal Vanessa's diamond ring before, and now you're stealing again?
11:19Damien, don't be like this.
11:20She probably didn't mean it.
11:22No.
11:28Let her go.
11:39How dare you lay a hand on my daughter?
11:42Are you tired of living?
11:48Does it hurt, sweetheart?
11:50Did any of them touch you?
11:52I'm fine, Mom.
11:55Mom, what's going on?
11:56And do you know her?
11:58Know her?
11:59She's my daughter.
12:01Of course I know her.
12:02What exactly were you people planning to do to my daughter?
12:06Ma'am, you must be confused.
12:09Vanessa's your daughter, right?
12:11They're accusing me of stealing.
12:15We found the emerald necklace in her bag.
12:17I was just going to take her to the police.
12:18This is my fault for not disciplining her properly.
12:21Who the hell are you to discipline anyone?
12:23Audrey is my former employee.
12:24She has no family, that's why I stepped in.
12:27Damien Cross, I already quit.
12:29You don't get to discipline me.
12:31Who do you think you are?
12:32Security!
12:33Pull up the footage right now and show these idiots who the real thief is.
12:37Since we already found the necklace, let's just drop it.
12:39Mom, the auspicious time for the party has almost come.
12:42Fine.
12:43We won't ruin the timing.
12:45Security, save the footage first.
12:54I'm sorry, I didn't handle things well and caused a huge scene.
12:57You shouldn't have had to step in for me.
13:00Silly girl.
13:02Mom's right here.
13:03Mom won't let anyone bully you.
13:06Thank you, Mom.
13:08Ma'am, Mr. Sterling has arrived.
13:10Go change into your dress, sweetheart.
13:12Make those who humiliated you never dare to laugh again.
13:16Does Mrs. Sterling's attitude today seem normal to you?
13:19She keeps staring straight at Audrey, and she's barely even looked at Vanessa.
13:24Yeah, whole thing feels weird as hell.
13:31Sorry, this dressing room is reserved exclusively for tonight's main guest.
13:35I am the main guest.
13:36It's my birthday!
13:44Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats.
13:47The birthday celebration is about to begin.
13:51I haven't even gone on stage yet.
13:53Why didn't anyone walk me through the process?
14:14The young woman standing beside me is the true heir of the Sterling family, my beloved daughter.
14:26Over 20 years ago, my nanny Marlon Hayes switched the infants, replacing my real daughter with her own.
14:39She abandoned my real daughter on the steps of an orphanage.
14:43No, that's impossible.
14:44Then what about me?
14:45Your real mother is the nanny you've ordered around your whole life.
14:49From this moment on, you are no longer part of the Sterling family.
14:56How could she possibly be?
14:58Hello, everyone.
14:59I'm Audrey Sterling.
15:01Starting today, I am the sole legitimate heir of the Sterling family.
15:05At the same time, I want to make one thing very clear.
15:08Vanessa Hayes.
15:10The car accident you orchestrated a week ago caused me to lose my baby.
15:14Today, you tried to frame me for stealing a Sterling family heirloom.
15:17I will pursue this to the footest extent of the law.
15:20Mom, Dad, this is all revenge.
15:22Audrey's just mad because her boyfriend fell for me.
15:24You know me better than anyone.
15:25Audrey, let's all calm down.
15:28No need to ruin the whole party.
15:34Since some people insist we need proof, I'll lay it all out right here.
15:39She's driving alone tonight.
15:41Just a light tap, nothing too serious.
15:44Don't make it look deliberate.
15:57It's fake!
15:58This is a forgery!
16:01Dad, Mom, you can't believe her!
16:06Take her outside.
16:14Congratulations, Mr. Sterling.
16:17The future female CEO has arrived.
16:20I hate these social gatherings, but Mom's waiting expectantly.
16:24I can't disappoint her.
16:32Any chance you'll dance with me tonight?
16:34We should talk about us.
16:50Fiancee, did you forget you're supposed to announce me tonight?
16:56Sorry, I forgot for a second.
17:00No problem.
17:01You're the star tonight.
17:03Besides, I'm your man now.
17:05I'm not the type to get petty over something like this.
17:11Am I right, Mr. Cross?
17:26God, they look insane together.
17:29A real sterling end dress in the Ashford Tech Anne.
17:33Damien, man.
17:34You really had zero vision.
17:35You just fumbled a literal billion dollar future.
17:42Fiancee, how about a date tomorrow?
17:44Just us.
17:50By the time the banquet ended, Damien slunk home.
17:53He ripped off his jacket, swept the coffee table clear.
17:57Glasses shattered.
17:58Everything of mine was gone.
17:59The trinkets, the candles, the sticky notes, all vanished.
18:03He sank onto the couch, head in his hands.
18:05His fingers brushed an old photo.
18:07Eight years ago, crammed into a cheap apartment, grinning over five dollar noodles.
18:10Back then, Vanessa had dumped him cold.
18:12Career in the gutter.
18:13Love ripped away.
18:16Damien Cross, you don't belong dead here.
18:18From that day on, he threw himself into every project.
18:20He clawed his way up.
18:22He did love me.
18:22He just thought we had forever.
18:24Until one day, the high society scene got under his skin.
18:28He thought he was playing the game perfectly stringing Vanessa along while keeping me as a safety net.
18:33But now, everything had spiraled out of control.
18:40What the hell was I doing?
18:54The comment section was a bloodbath.
18:56Vanessa's millions of fans turned vicious.
18:59But Andre never opened Instagram.
19:01Before the banquet kicked off, she'd set up her own live stream, homepage of every major platform.
19:06The whole country watched Vanessa Hayes' innocent rich girl image explode in real time.
19:10Nessus went feral.
19:12Someone jug up bystander footage from the car crash.
19:14The moment her identity flipped from random orphan to sterling heiress, thousands volunteered to hunt down the truth.
19:20Vanessa Hayes was never a rich princess.
19:22She's a psycho who can only feel tall by grinding other people into the down.
19:25The same mob that tore Audrey apart now buried Vanessa under twice the venom.
19:35Mr. Cross, we need to issue a statement right now.
19:40Shut the hell up!
19:58Damien, they've got me locked up!
19:59I'm still carrying your baby!
20:01Vanessa, how many lies have you told me?
20:05Why the hell did you do that to Audrey?
20:08I was just scared she'd steal you away.
20:11I didn't try to kill her.
20:13Scare her?
20:14You know she was pregnant?
20:16Two months along?
20:19How is I Moses to know?
20:26Vanessa, I can't help you.
20:28So you were only with me for the money this whole time?
20:33Let's be real, Vanessa.
20:34You're not even in the same league as Audrey.
20:36I only stayed with you for the deal.
20:38You really thought I actually liked any of that?
20:52While the internet tore itself apart, I wasn't looking at my phone.
20:55I sat in Julian Ashford's car, watching City Light streak past.
20:59He brought me to my old college campus.
21:00First stop on our date, I want to take you back to the place we actually first met.
21:12You spent four years on this campus, but every important memory revolved around Damien Cross.
21:19Every midterm and finals week, you'd sit on that bench and study for hours.
21:23I climbed the big oak tree and napped in the branches.
21:26I heard every word you muttered to yourself.
21:29I thought you were fascinating.
21:34I'm not asking you to like me right away.
21:37I'm just telling you that from now on, I'm going to take up space in your life.
21:40One day, the first person you think of won't be him anymore.
21:43It'll be me.
21:48Okay.
21:50I started pulling every dollar my mother had invested in his company.
21:55While the internet tore itself apart, I withdrew every cent without a sound.
22:00Is pulling the funding enough?
22:02Not even close.
22:04He never valued anything I gave him before.
22:07Now I'm going to make him return every single thing.
22:10With interest.
22:11I created my own Instagram account, different from Vanessa's.
22:14No selfies, no flaunting.
22:16I hired the best financial media team.
22:18I wanted the world to know I wasn't any man's accessory.
22:20The internet lost its mind.
22:22Queen behavior, they said.
22:24Then I started the real harvest.
22:25Every project Damien was eyeing, every partnership he was negotiating, I got there first.
22:29His company bled from the public boycott.
22:31Now the commercial blows came so fast, he couldn't catch his breath.
22:35Until one night, a drunken investor let the truth slip.
22:37It's no accident, Damien.
22:39You antagonize someone you shouldn't have.
22:42Your ex holds all the leverage against you.
22:52It's not her.
22:54It's the Sterlings behind her.
22:56She's nothing without them.
23:02After that, Damien started lying in wait for me regularly, outside my office building,
23:07and at the cafe nearby.
23:08Vanessa vanished suddenly.
23:10Investigations revealed she'd scaled the wall and broken into Sterling Estate alone.
23:14Damien saw this as his chance to win me back and hunted tirelessly for him.
23:17The Hot Springs Resort.
23:21Vanessa.
23:23Vanessa.
23:24Come down.
23:29Damien Cross.
23:31Still pretending to be the good guy?
23:33You just want to look good in front of Audrey, right?
23:36I have nothing left.
23:38I'm going to prison.
23:39But what about you?
23:41You want to be the rich son-in-law, isn't that it?
23:44You did wrong things.
23:46You have to face the consequences.
23:49Consequences?
23:49When I lied to her, you believed every word.
23:52You're the one who hurt her the most.
23:54Why aren't you facing consequences?
23:55You loved me so much back then.
23:58Later, you turned around and destroyed me for Audrey Sterling.
24:01Who the hell did you actually love?
24:04Who the hell did you actually love?
24:08Let's just die together.
24:16I don't know anything.
24:19Mrs. Sterling, the second defendant, Vanessa Hayes, fell from the cliff and is in critical condition.
24:26I have to go to the hospital!
24:30She's my daughter!
24:36You said you didn't know anything.
24:40I'll talk.
24:42I'll tell you everything.
24:44Just let me see her once.
24:46It was me!
24:47I'm the one who switched the Sterling baby all those years ago.
24:50I just wanted my daughter to have a good life.
24:53I took Mrs. Sterling's baby and left her at the orphanage.
24:57The shadow that had weighed on my heart for 23 years lifted completely.
25:03You're going to be okay.
25:08But the baby didn't make it.
25:20Vanessa, baby, I'm here.
25:25Get out!
25:27I don't know you!
25:29How dare you call yourself my mother!
25:31I watched silently from the hallway's end, then left.
25:35I didn't care about Damien.
25:36The doctor's diagnosis read,
25:38Severe cum pletid's fracture in your right leg.
25:41You'll be able to walk again, but you'll likely have a permanent limp.
25:47Late at night, Damien sat propped up in the hospital bed, red-eyed, as tears slid silently down his cheeks.
25:57The entire city is bathed in gilded lights.
26:00Standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows of the banquet hall, I gaze at the countless fireworks blooming over the
26:05dark sea.
26:07This engagement party belongs entirely to me.
26:12Everyone, thank you for coming tonight.
26:15From this day forward, the other half of my life will include Mr. Julian Ashford.
26:20Ms. Sterling will be the sharpest and most brilliant blade in this era of business.
26:26And I only want to stand at her side.
26:29I plan to spend the rest of my life making sure she never has to lower her head again.
26:39From tonight on, your name is the one I want to protect for the rest of my life.
26:47Every scar from the past had become my armor.
26:49And every road ahead, I would hold the map in my own hands.
