00:08I'll marry the Ashvind heir who's been in a coma for two years.
00:11Finally come to your senses, the Ashvinds have only given us two weeks to finalize the marriage registration.
00:15Tell me how you want the wedding, and I'll have my staff arrange it.
00:18You want me to marry a woman who may never wake up in Chloe's place, and all you're offering is
00:22a wedding?
00:23Chloe's your sister.
00:24She's proof of your betrayal against my mother, not my sister.
00:29Name your terms.
00:30Unfreeze the $1 billion trust my mother left me and transfer all her hotel shares back to my name.
00:35Also, on the day I leave New York, reassign Adrian to protect Chloe.
00:38Isn't Adrian the man you've been chasing for three years?
00:43Do we have a deal or not?
00:44Deal.
00:47But I have to wonder, what made you suddenly let go?
00:56Chloe.
00:59Because you and my father are the same.
01:01You only ever see her.
01:03I've been chasing you for three years.
01:05Do you really feel nothing for me at all?
01:08You're drunk, Evelyn.
01:10There's something making noise in my room.
01:11Can I stay in your room tonight?
01:12The estate security system hasn't detected anything out of the ordinary.
01:20I used to think you couldn't love.
01:23Now I know.
01:24You just couldn't love me.
01:27The heir of Cross Holdings working as a security consultant at the Vale Estate.
01:33How much longer are you going to keep up this undercover game?
01:36Chloe's never felt safe growing up.
01:37I don't want to scare her with my identity.
01:39What about Evelyn?
01:40She's right in front of you every day.
01:41Have you really never felt anything for her?
01:44She's not worth a single hair on Chloe's head.
01:52From this moment on, I will no longer love you.
01:58This is my private space.
02:01Come with me to the charity auction tomorrow.
02:03I've taken two days off.
02:05Chloe will be there.
02:09What time do we leave?
02:10Of course.
02:11Mention her and you throw all your principles out the window.
02:14Evelyn.
02:14Relax.
02:15Soon enough, I'll hand you right to her myself.
02:31She is angry.
02:33That's fine, too.
02:34She should have given up long ago.
02:37Sister, what a coincidence.
02:38Are you here to support the Children's Foundation, too?
02:41Don't touch me.
02:43Adrian, I was just trying to be close to my sister.
02:49Last time I had a fever and craved red velvet cake from the south side,
02:52you drove all the way in the rain to bring it, right?
02:53It was on my way.
02:55A 40-mile detour in the rain and you ended up with a fever yourself.
02:58Some on the way.
03:00Then I'll treat you to dinner sometime.
03:02Pick whatever time works for you.
03:04You two enjoy yourselves.
03:06A Burmese ruby necklace.
03:07Starting bid $500,000.
03:09$1 million.
03:10$1.2 million.
03:11Sister, father's monthly allowance for you can't possibly cover that.
03:14You get $50,000 a month, I get $500.
03:17Good thing my mother left me an inheritance.
03:19$2 million.
03:19$5 million.
03:22The company's tight on cash.
03:24Don't bid any higher.
03:25He just gave me back my trust fund.
03:27Of course he doesn't have money to prop you up anymore.
03:29$5 million at a time.
03:30Hold on.
03:31Mr. Cross will cover every lot Miss Chloe desires tonight.
03:36Cross, our chef needs each other.
03:39Can I thank him in person?
03:41He will make himself known when the time is right.
03:43What a coincidence.
03:45A Cross heir and an Adrian both so very fond of you.
03:49Pink diamond ring.
03:51Starting bid $3 million.
03:53Mr. Cross will take the full bid.
03:55Monet private manuscript $8 million.
03:57Mr. Cross will take the full bid.
03:59Still bidding, sister?
04:01No thanks.
04:02Your mysterious suitor has bottomless pockets.
04:08Mr. Cross will take this one too.
04:13Adrian, let's go.
04:18Sister, you really liked this necklace, didn't you?
04:21It's none of your business.
04:23Adrian, why do you think Mr. Cross is sending me all these things?
04:26Because he likes you.
04:27Money follows desire.
04:30Do you like me too?
04:33Stop the car, both of you.
04:34Get out.
04:35This is my car.
04:38Turns out, cheap performances fool men the easiest.
04:44Miss Vile, have a drink.
04:47Move.
04:48Don't be so cold.
04:51Adrian!
04:55Sorry, I didn't see you earlier.
04:56Didn't see?
04:57Or didn't want to?
05:00Get down!
05:14You were hired to protect her.
05:15Why did you save me first?
05:17A hundred times over, I'd still choose you.
05:21Why?
05:23Because I like you.
05:27You failed in your duty.
05:29Accept suspension pending investigation.
05:30Any objections?
05:31None.
05:32Punish me instead!
05:35Are you hurt?
05:37Get out.
05:41These are all birthday gifts from Mr. Cross to Miss Chloe.
05:49I heard you're marrying a woman who's in a coma.
05:51How pathetic.
05:52At least she doesn't have to step on others to prove she's worthy of love.
05:56Your mother couldn't win against mine back then, and you can't win against me now.
05:59She died in labor.
06:00Just bad luck.
06:01That's all.
06:02Sister, why did you hit me?
06:06Evelyn!
06:07It's her birthday!
06:11You didn't see that first slap clearly?
06:16See it now?
06:18Both slaps were from me.
06:21Evelyn!
06:21What?
06:22She gets two slaps, and you're gonna pay me back 99 times?
06:24You have everything.
06:25Why do you always target Chloe?
06:26What do I have?
06:27Her mother moved into my house and drove my mother to her death in labor.
06:29She took my room, my tuition, my school spot, and my father.
06:32And now you're on her side too!
06:33All I've heard is that Chloe's the one being bullied by you.
06:36Believe whoever you want.
06:38I'm taking a few days off.
06:40Suit yourself.
06:45Tattoo Chloe on my chest.
06:47Are you insane?
06:48Your grandfather will kill you if he finds out!
06:51Do it.
06:54Head to Blackthorn Cliff.
06:55Rock climbing right after a tattoo?
06:57There's a storm warning there today!
06:59Chloe wants the black roses that grow there.
07:02So, you really can't love someone so much that you would do anything for them.
07:06I had an accident rock climbing.
07:08I need to take time off.
07:11Rock climbing?
07:18Go ahead.
07:21Are you really gonna marry Victoria Ashford?
07:23She's the most unapproachable woman on the entire East Coast.
07:25Whether she wakes up or not doesn't matter.
07:27I just need to get out of here.
07:28You've only dated men before, aren't you?
07:29What I'm worried about is handing my life over to someone who doesn't respect me again.
07:32Not about their gender.
07:36Adrian got a tattoo for you, climbed a cliff in a storm.
07:38He's really serious about you, huh?
07:39Please, he's just a bodyguard.
07:40He doesn't deserve me.
07:41Once I marry the cross dean, Adrian's hot enough to keep around as a lover, I guess.
07:44Then why do you keep stringing him along?
07:45Because Evelyn likes him.
07:47Taking her things is more fun than having the things themselves.
07:54Adrian, this is the person for whom you are willing to die.
07:57Mom, I'm getting married.
07:59Her name is Victoria Ashford.
08:01I don't know if this will turn into real love, but I know I won't burn myself out for
08:06someone who doesn't deserve it the way you did.
08:09I'm going to live well.
08:17I don't want him anymore.
08:19Your mother and I...
08:20Don't use her to pretend you have a conscience.
08:28Where are you going?
08:30Moving.
08:30Send me your new address.
08:32I'm still in charge of your security.
08:34First, deliver a box of chestnut cake to Chloe for me.
08:37She'll tell you about the new arrangement.
08:39I'll come find you once I'm done.
08:41Goodbye, Adrian.
08:52To the airport.
08:57How did you know I love these?
08:59Evelyn told me to bring them.
09:01You don't have to go back.
09:02She signed you over to me.
09:05Signed me over?
09:06She got her billion dollar trust fund back and left for Boston to marry Victoria Ashfield.
09:10Today's the day.
09:15The number you dialed is not in service.
09:17She didn't even leave an address?
09:19She chose the Ashfords all on her own.
09:20Your only job now is protect...
09:22She's already gone?
09:27My sister would even marry a Comahos woman for money.
09:30The Ashfords are older money than the Crosses.
09:33She's always been good at calculating her own benefit.
09:36She's too proud to marry for money.
09:38That can't be the reason.
09:40You don't want to protect me anymore?
09:43This is what I've always wanted.
09:48It's better that she's gone.
09:50No one will hurt Chloe now.
09:56They're all beautiful, but they're so expensive.
09:59Keep everything you like.
10:01You're just a security consultant.
10:03Don't waste your money on me.
10:07Send everything to Vail Manor in the Crosshair's name.
10:10I wish that whole sky could be mine.
10:14Buy the naming rights to the building across from here.
10:17Light it up all night in Chloe's name.
10:18You really are head over wheels for her.
10:20Why is it that now she's gone?
10:22I can't feel anything at all.
10:24Come with me to Hudson Valley to watch the sunset, okay?
10:28It's too late.
10:30You don't like me anymore, do you?
10:35Don't cry.
10:36I'll go with you.
10:39Disgusting thing.
10:40You got my shoes dirty.
10:44I just got scared, that's all.
10:47Let's go.
11:02Adrian, wake up!
11:05The doctor said an inch closer, and it would have hit your heart.
11:09Why do you always risk your life for me?
11:16Are you free the day I get discharged?
11:18Why?
11:19You'll find out then.
11:24Rest well.
11:25I have an event tonight.
11:34Why is it always her who truly stayed?
11:38Lucas, I'm going to propose to Chloe the day I get out of here.
11:42What I like is Chloe.
11:44Evelyn is already married.
11:46Why am I still thinking about her?
11:50Don't complain.
11:51It's my first time cooking for someone.
11:54Your life matters too.
11:56Don't treat yourself like a weapon.
11:58Enough.
12:00I haven't said a word yet.
12:01Rose Garden String Orchestra fireworks and a 10-crone pink diamond.
12:03Have everything ready in four weeks.
12:05What is it exactly that you like about Chloe?
12:06She's kind.
12:08Innocent.
12:09She would never hurt anyone.
12:13Can someone help it?
12:15Hold the ladder steady.
12:16That dress is worth $100,000.
12:18Be careful not to tear it.
12:19You can buy another dress.
12:20You can't buy another life.
12:22Who is she?
12:24One of the Veil daughters.
12:26I like her because she's kind.
12:30This time, she'll say yes for sure.
12:39Climb this high again, and I'll keep you inside the house.
12:45What's her name?
12:47One of the Veil daughters.
12:48Richard has two.
12:56It turned out to be Chloe.
13:00All the roses were delivered by air.
13:02Mr. Cross even chose the menu and the champagne himself.
13:07Five minutes until the scheduled time.
13:09Check the lights again.
13:16She can't have forgotten, can she?
13:17Something might have happened.
13:18Track her location.
13:22Should we cancel the ceremony for now?
13:24She promised she'd come.
13:25Keep waiting.
13:33Miss Chloe's at the Fifth Avenue Beauty Salon.
13:35She's been there for six hours getting treatment.
13:36I reminded her myself yesterday.
13:38She knows.
13:40To the salon.
13:41Sir, this is a women-only members salon.
13:44Mr. Cross.
13:45The top floor private suite.
13:47Don't tell her I'm here.
13:52You're really not going?
13:53He took a car crash for you.
13:54He has your name tattooed on his chest.
13:56Please.
13:57That whole setup is obviously a proposal.
13:59A bodyguard?
14:00Like I'd skip my facial for him.
14:01But he's been so good to you.
14:03That's why I'm keeping him around.
14:05What's wrong with having another man willing to die for you?
14:08The best part is Evelyn likes him.
14:10And he only has eyes for me.
14:12You've loved stealing her things since you were kids.
14:15She loved white dresses, so I made father give me all of hers.
14:17She never dared wear white again.
14:21Once I'm Mrs. Cross, if Adrian still wants to stick around, he can be my little dog.
14:25But all those scars on him are for you.
14:27He wanted to.
14:29The more it hurts, the more men think their sacrifice is love.
14:32I'll just compensate him a little once I'm Mrs. Cross.
14:39Is it true that Evelyn's mother's death had something to do with you guys?
14:42My mom just dropped off proof of Richard's affair and his secret daughter at the hospital
14:46right before she was due labor.
14:48Who knew she'd get so stressed she'd hemorrhage and lose the baby too?
14:52What about Evelyn's college spot?
14:53I forged a cheating report.
14:55Father went along with it and gave me the spot.
14:57No matter how good she is, no one in that family is on her side.
15:03Should we go in?
15:04No.
15:05Don't let her know I was here.
15:10He can be my little dog.
15:13I forged a report.
15:18What have I been worshipping all this time?
15:20The one who's been hurt this whole time is Evelyn.
15:26At that moment, she looked at me.
15:29How desperate was she really?
15:36Chloe hates cats.
15:37The girl who saved the cat three years ago couldn't have been her.
15:42Lucas, restore all the security footage from the Hampton Charity Gala three years ago.
15:47Now.
15:48The footage is badly corrupted.
15:50I can have it fixed before your birthday gala tomorrow night.
15:52The sooner the better.
15:58Please don't let it be you.
16:00Mr. Henry is asking you to return to Cross Manor immediately.
16:04The heir of the Cross family, playing bodyguard for this kind of opportunist?
16:10I'll handle it.
16:12Ms. Chloe sent her RSPP everything.
16:13For me one day, she says she'll attend in person.
16:15You're still planning to introduce her publicly?
16:18Only look into legally verifiable sources.
16:20Public school records, court and trust filings.
16:23Cross correspondent, and the security logs from my time at Vail.
16:27No private medical records.
16:29Once you know the truth, don't mistake guilt for love.
16:33I just need to know what I missed.
16:34You need to know how many times you hurt her by mistake.
16:38All legally verifiable documents are here.
16:40No school privacy files or medical records were accessed.
16:43Age seven.
16:45Witnessed her mother die of postpartum hemorrhage.
16:47Didn't speak for three months.
16:50Age 12.
16:51Chloe's birthday party took over the entire hotel.
16:54Evelyn was locked in the storage attic.
16:57Dad, let me out!
16:59Age 18.
16:59Earned a full Ivy League scholarship publicly.
17:01Only to have it revoked after an anonymous cheating report.
17:03The appeal receipt shows the evidence was never independently verified.
17:06The complaint cites chronic insomnia and back scars.
17:09The file was suppressed the day it was submitted.
17:13What do I have?
17:15Chloe's the one who's always been bullied.
17:17Ninety-nine lashes, as per Mr. Adrian's verbal order.
17:20It's done.
17:21Send her back.
17:25I thought she was lying.
17:27I had her hurt 99 times.
17:29All for Chloe.
17:33The number you have dialed is no longer in service.
17:36Evelyn.
17:41The footage is restored.
17:42Brace yourself.
17:49It was her all along.
17:53She's not worth a single hair on Chloe's head.
17:56You have everything.
18:02I got it wrong.
18:03For three years.
18:04Adrian.
18:09Is Chloe here yet?
18:11The Vale family just walked in.
18:13Mr. Cross booked a private auction for her and gave her a multi-billion dollar gift.
18:17It's likely that they will announce their engagement publicly tonight.
18:20Future collaborations will be much easier from here.
18:23The air of Cross Holdings has arrived.
18:29It's you?
18:30Adrian, you're supposed to turn.
18:35It turns out that I've always wanted to marry, the successor of Cross, was right there in front of me.
18:41All those gifts, auctions, and the starry sky, they were all mine.
18:49Don't touch me.
18:53Mr. Cross, why didn't you tell us you were experiencing life at the Vale Estate if we'd known?
19:00Tonight, I do have an announcement regarding Chloe.
19:05Over the past few months, I did make payments on her behalf anonymously.
19:09But during a routine compliance review, Cross Legal received formal complaints from five investors.
19:15She promised exclusive partnerships to five different investors and told each one they were the only one.
19:20Miss Vale also signed an additional brand endorsement agreement.
19:23If she breaches it, she owes $30 million in damages.
19:26That wasn't me!
19:27Electronic signatures, facial verification, bank statements, and complaint authorizations have all been independently audited and verified.
19:32Chloe, fulfill the agreement immediately.
19:36Vyolf Pertelity needs Mr. Marcus Vestment.
19:38Dad, you're gonna sell me to a man older than you?
19:41The company matters more than your tantrums.
19:44You can't ruin me with a few chat screenshots!
19:46You used my investment funds to pay for your personal jewelry and sold the same brand promise to four other
19:51people.
19:52This isn't a relationship dispute. It's contract fraud.
19:55Familiar?
19:56Evelyn's room, her school, her engagement?
19:58Your father always said, Chloe matters more.
20:01You said you liked me best!
20:03You risked your life for me!
20:05I love the girl who saved the cat three years ago.
20:08That was me!
20:10No.
20:11It was Evelyn.
20:14You stole her white dresses, her college spot, and your father's favor.
20:18And you treated me like a spare dog.
20:21Effective immediate, Cross Group is terminating all relations with you, Richard, and Vyolf Hospitality.
20:26Adrian!
20:27Don't say my name again. You make me sick.
20:29We can renegotiate the partnership. Evelyn's my daughter too. I can make her come back.
20:33You don't get to command her anymore.
20:34Vyolf Pertelity's bank credit lines have just been canceled.
20:36Three suppliers are demanding payment at once.
20:37What did you do?
20:39I'm just revoking the cross-credit endorsement you've been fraud gently using.
20:42The day you embezzled her mother's trust, you lost the right to call yourself her father.
20:46The antique brooch you ordered and conditionally transferred has been delivered to Evelyn's
20:49trust attorney by the custodian and bank.
20:50Also, the Ashford wedding ceremony is taking place today.
20:54Evelyn, this is just the first installment of what you're owed.
20:59Prepare the private jet. We're going to Boston.
21:01I'm afraid we won't make it.
21:02Today's the wedding ceremony for Evelyn and Victoria Ashford.
21:04Victoria's still in a coma.
21:06She woke up the first night Evelyn arrived at the manor.
21:10To the airport.
21:16For the record, I'm not taking advantage of you.
21:19Eleanor said the medical staff needs to check hand circularity.
21:23The media says you're as cold as ice.
21:26Right now you seem quieter and nicer than all the living people back in New York.
21:41Did they force you to marry me?
21:45All vitals are stable.
21:47She'll need rehabilitation, but she's fully conscious.
21:52Victoria, you're finally awake.
21:55Who is she?
21:59Evelyn Vale.
22:00Per the documents you signed before your accident, she's your fiancée.
22:04Since you're awake, we should renegotiate the engagement.
22:07Of course.
22:09But before you decide, I want you to know who actually proposed this marriage.
22:23Wasn't this decided by both our families?
22:25No.
22:26Two years ago, before the yacht explosion, I personally signed the marriage contract, the trust, and the medical power of
22:32attorney.
22:32The only person named as my spouse in those documents is you.
22:37Chloe was never mentioned.
22:39Richard framed the marriage that was rightfully yours as a replacement, just to keep you feeling like you'll always be
22:44second best, and to force you into trading your trust and Adrian for it.
22:50Why me?
22:54Your mother, Claire, was my mother's closest friend.
22:57After she passed, the Ashfords tried to take you in, but Richard refused to give up custody.
23:03So when my father proposed the marriage, you said yes to take advantage?
23:06I said yes because it was a way out for you.
23:08But I won't turn that exit into another cage.
23:11This is the dissolution agreement.
23:13Sign it now, and you walk away with your trust, your shares, and legal protection from the Ashfords.
23:21You don't want anything in return?
23:23Nothing.
23:25Love isn't a debt.
23:36You've waited for her all these years.
23:38You're really going to let her sign that disrelation?
23:41If she stays because she has nowhere else to go, that's not a choice.
23:44So what are you going to do?
23:45Recover, go back to the company, and let her see who I really am.
23:51The rest is up to her.
23:57Miss Evelyn, Miss Victoria asked you to choose for yourself.
24:00If you don't like any of them, you can send them all back.
24:03She didn't buy out the entire department store?
24:06I considered it.
24:08Eleanor said that would be suffocating.
24:10She's right.
24:11I'll remember that.
24:13Breakfast is your call too.
24:14You don't have to eat anything you don't like to please anyone.
24:19You shouldn't have come this far on your own.
24:22I wanted to invite you somewhere.
24:24You can say no.
24:25Tell me where first.
24:28To watch the sunset.
24:35How did you know I like sunsets?
24:37You told me when you were ten years old.
24:46Why are they laughing at you?
24:49Because I said I wanted to marry a girl someday.
24:51So what?
24:52Who you like is your business.
24:54No one else gets to make you feel ashamed for it.
24:57Stop crying.
24:58Look.
25:00Sunsets are beautiful even before they lose to the night.
25:05I remembered you from that day.
25:07And I remembered sunsets.
25:08You know I used to like Adrienne.
25:10I know.
25:11You don't owe me an apology for your past.
25:13I might not even know if I can fall in love with a woman yet.
25:16Then don't rush to label it.
25:17Just be honest with how you feel.
25:22I'm not signing the dissolution agreement.
25:23Not yet.
25:26Okay.
25:36May I hold your hand?
25:39Yes.
25:43Your recovery speed is remarkable.
25:46Because she's too stubborn.
25:48Only about the things that matter.
25:56May I come in?
25:58You're already inside the door.
26:00That's why I didn't step any further.
26:03Come in then.
26:09May I touch your shoulder?
26:10Father, do you have to ask every time?
26:13Until you tell me I don't.
26:15Walk down the aisle with me today.
26:18Are you sure?
26:19I'm inviting you.
26:21Of my own free will.
26:35I'm inviting you.
26:36I'm inviting you.
26:37I'm inviting you.
26:38Ready?
26:39Ready?
26:41Ready.
26:52If you've changed your mind, you can still stop right now.
26:56I haven't changed my mind.
26:58Victoria Ashford, do you take...
27:01I do.
27:02Evelyn Vale, do you take...
27:06She cannot marry you!
27:10Adrian.
27:13Don't marry her.
27:14I got the wrong person.
27:17What?
27:18The girl I fell in love with at first sight three years ago was you.
27:22Not Chloe.
27:23I got the white dress, the pearl bracelet, the cat, all of it wrong.
27:28The woman I fell for at first sight has always been you.
27:34So you're here now to make me responsible for your mistake?
27:37I just want a chance to make it up to you.
27:39You have one minute.
27:40That doesn't mean you get a chance.
27:42This is her wedding.
27:43You have one minute.
27:44Say your piece and leave.
27:47That day, you wore a white dress and saved a cat.
27:50I only heard one of the Veil daughters, and then I saw Chloe's photos and assumed it was her.
27:55So?
27:56I found out she forged the report that ruined your scholarship, and she intentionally provoked your mother.
28:00Evelyn, I'm sorry.
28:01If I'd known sooner...
28:02Who you fell in love with by mistake is not my responsibility.
28:06At the auction, you let her take my mother's brooch.
28:09At the club, you held her in your arms and left me bleeding alone.
28:14When I told you the truth, you had me taken away and left with 99 scars.
28:18I'll spend my whole life making it up to you.
28:21Just because you finally see me now doesn't mean I have to stand here waiting for you.
28:24It's always been you.
28:26You're the one I truly love.
28:27No.
28:28You love the back of a girl in a white dress.
28:29The real me was right in front of you for three years, and you never bothered to look.
28:36I don't forgive you.
28:42I've already put Veil out of business.
28:45I've taken everything from Chloe.
28:47That's enough.
28:49She doesn't need you to avenge her to be worthy of love.
28:52This is between her and me.
28:53No.
28:55The hurt belongs to the past.
28:56The choice to her.
28:58Do you want him to stay or to leave?
29:02Leave.
29:03You were in a coma for two years.
29:05You've only known her for six weeks.
29:06What could you possibly have?
29:07You've known her for three years, and you never saw her.
29:11Call off the marriage, and I'll give Ashfield all of Cross's European shipping profits.
29:17Who are you making that offer to?
29:19I'm negotiating terms.
29:20Evelyn is not an asset, not a prize you can claim back when you regret your mistakes.
29:31When she joins this family, she doesn't have to give up her name, her shares, or her freedom.
29:35Anyone who hurts her will answer to us.
29:37Cross profits, ports, shares, none of it matters to me.
29:40The person you need to convince was never me.
29:44Whatever you decide, the lawyers, assets, and security the Ashfords have given you will not be withdrawn.
29:51You don't owe me anything for staying.
29:58So this is how you protect her?
30:02It's not special treatment.
30:04It's the bare minimum of loving someone.
30:13Please continue the ceremony.
30:15I've already used the cross-side recovery key to upload a falsified anomaly audit package into the joint port settlement
30:20system.
30:21Per our contract, the system has just triggered a maximum seven-day automatic compliance freeze.
30:26Fabricated charges.
30:28Whether it's fabricated or not, we'll have to wait for independent audit and court review.
30:32During the freeze, the joint clearing account make outgoing payments.
30:37The cross-side recovery key is in my hands.
30:39Come with me, Evelyn.
30:40Give me seven days.
30:41I'll withdraw the anomaly filing and hand over the...
30:43This is extortion!
30:44Call the police if you want.
30:45By the time the court lifts it or you reroute the funds, the first payroll and medical payments will already
30:48be overdue.
30:49We filed for emergency lift, and we're building a backup payment channel.
30:52The backup will take at least 48 hours, and we'll only cover emergency care and minimum wages first.
30:5630,000 employees shouldn't pay the price for personal and business days.
31:02Fine. I'll give you seven days.
31:05Evelyn, you don't have to do this.
31:06For this week, you will not hurt anyone at Ashford, you will not restrict my contact with my lawyers, and
31:10you will not take me out of Massachusetts.
31:12I agree.
31:14Do you trust me?
31:16I trust you, and I trust your judgment.
31:22Inside is the letter Victoria left before her accident, and the encrypted communication ring Diana prepared.
31:27Open it when you're safe.
31:30Thank you, Elenin.
31:32We'll be waiting for you to come home.
31:35The agreement only says I'll go with you.
31:37It doesn't include physical contact.
31:41All right.
31:47You don't have to prove you're brave to anyone.
31:50If you're in danger, leave.
31:52Ashford will handle the rest.
31:54I'll come back, and I'll bring back what's rightfully yours.
32:01I remembered you like white.
32:03You remember the label Chloe left behind after stealing it?
32:06Then tell me what you like now.
32:08I'll replace all of it.
32:09Red, black, gold.
32:10Sometimes white, too.
32:11The point is, I get to decide.
32:16I can learn.
32:18It was never flowers I was missing.
32:21It was you choosing not to look when I was bleeding.
32:29Victoria, give me seven days.
32:31I'll retrieve the key.
32:35All your favorites.
32:38I have a severe shellfish allergy.
32:42I'm sorry, I assumed...
32:43Chloe likes seafood.
32:45You projected her preferences onto me again.
32:49Give me time.
32:50I'll remember everything.
32:51Were you scared when you climbed the cliff for the flowers?
32:54Yes.
32:55But back then, I thought she was the woman I loved.
32:57That's why I don't believe this devotion of yours now.
32:59It's built on panic after your mistake was exposed.
33:03Ninety-nine lashes.
33:05Give them all back to me.
33:06The inheritance is yours, too.
33:07I won't reenact abuse for you, and I won't use violence to ease your guilt.
33:11You won't even hate me?
33:12Hate is still a connection.
33:14I'm cutting it off.
33:20This is the cross-side recovery key for the joint port settlement system.
33:24After seven days, if you stay, I'll hand it to you myself.
33:27So your version of love is still just a transaction?
33:30At least a transaction keeps you in front of me.
33:39Cut it off.
33:42Your body and your guilt are not my responsibility.
33:47Adrian!
33:48You still care about me.
33:51I'm stopping a man from dying in front of me.
33:53That's not love.
33:55The wound missed the heart, but continued blood loss will cause shock.
33:57Who handed him the knife?
33:58He did it to himself.
33:59Please record clearly that I did not participate,
34:01and I did not ask him to do this.
34:05Don't leave.
34:11I will never stay with someone who uses self-harm to control me.
34:27Evelyn.
34:36Hello, I'm Adrian.
34:38Can I get to know you?
34:40Why?
34:41Because I don't want to get you wrong again.
34:44If it had been you from the start, would we be married already?
34:47But you never loved the real me.
34:51Mr. Cross, wake up.
34:55Where's Evelyn?
34:56In the garden.
34:57You need to rest.
35:00Is the recovery key copy complete?
35:0397%.
35:03I'll finish it tonight.
35:05Your safety comes first.
35:06Stop the plan at any time.
35:08I know.
35:09When I get back, we'll finish the wedding.
35:11I'll be waiting, my fiancé.
35:14I miss you too, Victoria.
35:20What did you call her?
35:22My wife.
35:24The ceremony wasn't finished.
35:26In my heart, she's already the family I chose.
35:31Don't touch me.
35:34Don't use her to provoke me.
35:36I'm not provoking you.
35:38I love her.
35:42I love her.
35:48At the club, I failed to protect you.
35:50So?
35:52Every injury you suffered, I'll pay back a hundred times over to my cell.
36:02Are you insane?
36:07It's the only way you'll look at me.
36:09I stopped you out of basic human instinct, not love.
36:13Then let me live on that much instinct.
36:17Stop turning your own blood into chains to trap other people.
36:22Hmph.
36:25Mmph.
36:30Mmph.
36:40Mmph.
36:40Mmph.
36:41Mmph.
36:43Mmph.
