00:00For three years of dating, Damien Sinclair treated sex a certain way.
00:04No kissing, no face to face, only from behind and triple layered condoms.
00:08Emma stood in the hallway outside his office, staring through a crack in the door.
00:11Damien had a woman on top of his desk, his tailored shirt hanging open.
00:15He held her the way he had never held Emma, pulling her close, devouring her mouth.
00:19Blair.
00:20He breathed.
00:21Blair, I love you.
00:22The words hit Emma like a slap.
00:24He reached for the doorknob.
00:25Someone grabbed her arm from behind.
00:27Ms. Donovan.
00:28A man steered her away.
00:29You do not want to do this.
00:30Emma twisted.
00:31Let go of me.
00:32Who are you?
00:33Derek Harlan.
00:34I represent Mrs. Reed.
00:35He pushed her into a conference room and slid a thick folder across the table.
00:39Per the terms of recovery, you owe Mr. Sinclair $30 million.
00:43Emma froze.
00:44Excuse me?
00:45Harlan's mouth curved.
00:46You heard me.
00:47$30 million funds and assets Mr. Sinclair diverted to you during your relationship.
00:52Diverted?
00:52He is a hotel manager.
00:54Your boyfriend, Damien Sinclair, is the controlling heir of Sinclair Holdings two years ago.
00:59He married my client, Mrs. Blair Reed.
01:01The room tilted Emma gripped the table.
01:03Harlan opened the folder.
01:05A marriage certificate Damien's name printed beside Blair Reed.
01:08Under the certificate were pages of itemized expenses.
01:11$30 plushies.
01:13A $19.99 t-shirt.
01:15A $9.99 box of condoms.
01:18A $39.99 set of underwear.
01:22Their shared costs split down the middle documented stamped.
01:25Emma's handshake.
01:25Harlan watched her.
01:27You're welcome to ask Mr. Sinclair yourself.
01:29I would not recommend expecting help.
01:31Do not waste money hunting for an attorney.
01:33Mrs. Reed has extensive relationships in Harbor City.
01:37No one will take your case.
01:38Everyone knows what you are a gold digger.
01:40Emma walked out.
01:41He did not remember the elevator or the street.
01:43She only remembered the folder in her hands.
01:46At the train station, her phone buzzed.
01:47A message from Damien.
01:49Em, I got a bonus today.
01:50I am coming home early to cook you dinner.
01:52He typed back.
01:53I am working late tonight.
01:54Do not wait out.
01:56Harbor City's golden boy had spent three years playing poor in a cramped rental with her.
02:00She met him three years ago on a work project.
02:02He had been relentless.
02:04Then came the site visit.
02:05The crash Damien throwing his body in front of hers.
02:08He had been unconscious for three days.
02:10When he woke he grabbed her hand.
02:12Emma, while I was out, all I could think about was you.
02:14I like you.
02:15Can you try liking me back?
02:17She had.
02:18For three years they lived like any ordinary couple.
02:20Damien said he did not believe in marriage.
02:22I cannot give you a certificate.
02:24But we can have a big wedding.
02:25Do not tell me you are starting to feel sorry for her.
02:28Ryan swallowed.
02:29I am worried you might be getting attached.
02:31Damien laughed quietly.
02:33Attached?
02:33To her?
02:34Blair explained what happened back then.
02:37Emma accused her at school.
02:38Tried to paint her as a bully.
02:39The whole class backed Blair up.
02:41Seven days that is how long until our wedding.
02:43It will be live streamed full media coverage.
02:46I am going to expose what Emma did.
02:48Make sure she loses her reputation publicly.
02:50A three-year anniversary gift for Blair.
02:52Ryan looked sick.
02:54Sir, what if she was framed?
02:55What if she is innocent?
02:57For half a second something moved across Damien's face.
03:00Then it vanished.
03:01Innocent?
03:02She envied Blair's family jealousy.
03:04Ryan's voice dropped.
03:05And Emma?
03:06These past three years.
03:08Damien's mouth curled.
03:10Just entertainment.
03:11While Blair was overseas, I needed something to pass the time.
03:14Keeping a stray amused.
03:16Once Blair has had her closure, Emma is done.
03:19Emma pressed a hand to her chest.
03:21Tears slipped down her face.
03:22She rolled the window up, wiped her cheeks and stared straight ahead.
03:26She was not going to fight for a man who had been playing her like a game.
03:29Emma Donovan was going to disappear from Damien Sinclair's life.
03:32Emma's phone lit up with an automated notification.
03:35Your flight departs in seven days.
03:37She had thought about confronting him.
03:39But she still had her dad.
03:40And she knew what Damien Sinclair did to people who got in his way.
03:43So she filed the paperwork.
03:45Changed names.
03:46Bought two one-way tickets out of the country.
03:48When she pushed open the door to their tiny rental.
03:51Damien was in the kitchen.
03:52Em, you are home.
03:53Two minutes.
03:54Dinner is almost ready.
03:55The table was set with dishes she loved.
03:58Crab sizzling and buttery.
03:59The kind they had not been able to justify buying in months.
04:02I found your favorite.
04:03He said.
04:03I bought the good stuff.
04:05Just last month they had stood outside a seafood stall for 10 minutes.
04:08Staring at prices.
04:09Walking away empty-handed.
04:11Saving for a down payment.
04:12Now she looked at the crab and felt nothing but bitterness.
04:15I am not hungry.
04:16Emma said pushing his hand away.
04:18Damien's smile faltered.
04:20He reached for her forehead.
04:21What is wrong?
04:22Are you sick?
04:23Emma watched his face.
04:24Damien, I want us to make it official.
04:26You are not avoiding a marriage license because there is someone else, right?
04:30The air turned solid.
04:32Emma.
04:32Do not start.
04:33I told you.
04:34I am not the marrying type.
04:36And you are getting a wedding in seven days.
04:38That is my compromise.
04:39His phone buzzed.
04:40He grabbed it, angling the screen away.
04:43Then he pocketed it.
04:44Something came up at work.
04:45I have to go.
04:46He was gone, the door slamming hard.
04:49Emma sat staring at the food.
04:50She had seen the contact name on his screen.
04:53Blair.
04:53What made it worse was this.
04:55The first time she had let him close.
04:57Damien had asked about the scars on her skin.
04:59So she told him.
05:00Every ugly truth about what Blair did to her in high school.
05:03And Damien looked at her like he wanted to burn the world down for her.
05:06After that, he kissed the places that still hurt and held her like he meant it.
05:10As long as I am here, no one will ever hurt you again.
05:13Lice love was a lie.
05:15Tenderness was a lie.
05:16Her phone buzzed.
05:17To new text.
05:18Ms. Donovan.
05:19Due to your personal relationship issues, the company has decided to terminate your
05:23employment effective immediately.
05:25Emma stared at the text.
05:26Humiliation flooded in.
05:28This job had not been handed to her.
05:30She fought for it.
05:31Her phone buzzed again.
05:33Ms. Donovan.
05:34That termination notice is today's.
05:36Interest.
05:37You have not repaid Mrs. Reed's marital funds.
05:40So she will collect interest in different ways.
05:42And if you do not pay tomorrow, she will find a new way.
05:45Every day.
05:46Emma stood abruptly and took a rideshare to an address she did not know she had memorized.
05:51Harbor City's gated villa district.
05:53Behind black iron gates rose an estate so large it looked like a kingdom.
05:56A name was carved into a polished stone sign.
05:59The Blair-Damien estate.
06:00Through the bars she saw them, Damien and Blair, sitting on a garden swing beneath soft
06:05hanging lights.
06:06Ten years ago, Emma earned a scholarship into the best private prep school.
06:10Blair-Reed made sure she paid for it.
06:12Snakes in her bed locked in the walk-in freezer overnight.
06:15Two years.
06:16Countless bruises.
06:17Ten broken bones.
06:19Hundreds of scars.
06:20No one helped her.
06:21Blair's parents sat on the school board.
06:23Emma spent six months collecting proof, dumped it online.
06:26And by nightfall everything was gone.
06:28The class turned their backs.
06:30Emma was nearly expelled.
06:31No.
06:32Blair's voice drifted from the garden.
06:34Damien, I had someone get Emma fired today.
06:36You are not mad, are you?
06:37Damien said.
06:38Why would I be mad?
06:39If you want it, it is the right thing.
06:42Emma's vision blurred.
06:43He knew how hard she fought for that job.
06:44He knew what it meant.
06:46Blair turned on the swing.
06:47Be honest.
06:48While I was gone those three years you did not fall for Emma, did you?
06:51Damien answered without hesitation.
06:53Blair, you know why I stayed with her.
06:55It was always about you.
06:56I remember the night you came to me before you left.
06:59You were mad for five minutes.
07:01And I swore I would make it right.
07:03I swore I would make her pay.
07:04Five minutes.
07:05That was all it had taken for her life to become a slow execution.
07:09And Emma, Damien said finally.
07:11To me, she was a free warm body.
07:13When I was with her, I was thinking about you.
07:15Emma went perfectly still, free, disposable, a thing.
07:18Neither Blair Reed nor Damien Sinclair had any intention of letting her go.
07:22Emma barely remembered getting home.
07:24She started packing.
07:26Every gift Damien had ever given her.
07:28If she sold them, she could buy a future he could not reach.
07:31When Damien walked in later, the apartment was torn apart.
07:34Em, what the hell?
07:35Why are you packing?
07:36It is a mess in here.
07:38He said.
07:38I am cleaning.
07:39Damien exhaled.
07:40His shoulders eased.
07:42Okay, listen, my company wants me to go on a two-day trip.
07:45I...
07:45Emma cut in.
07:46Go.
07:47He blinked, thrown off.
07:48Emma did not explain.
07:49She had already heard the real conversation.
07:52Blair asked for those two days like ordering dessert.
07:55Damien was going overseas to buy her a $20 million necklace.
07:58The $30 million they were crushing Emma with was pocket change to him.
08:02Emma nodded.
08:02Go.
08:03I am fine.
08:04She packed for him, drove him to the airport, watched him disappear into the terminal.
08:07The second he was out of sight, she went to a high-end resale boutique.
08:11The buyback offer for the jewelry came to $20 million.
08:14Emma signed the paperwork.
08:16Funds transferred, $22 million sat in her account.
08:19Her phone buzzed.
08:20Mr. Harlan.
08:21Ms. Donovan.
08:23Today's interest has been collected.
08:25Then her phone rang her neighbor.
08:27Emma, you need to get to the hospital.
08:29It is your dad.
08:30He collapsed.
08:31Hurry.
08:32Emma made it to the hospital.
08:33Her father was already behind double doors.
08:35In surgery lit above the entrance, her neighbor held out a phone.
08:39On the screen, a photo of Emma underdressed, exposed.
08:43Last year.
08:44Their anniversary.
08:45Damien had taken it, telling her it was just for us.
08:48Now it sat with a message.
08:50Did you know your daughter is sleeping with a married man?
08:52A home wrecker.
08:54So this was today's interest.
08:56Not her job.
08:57Not her money.
08:58Her father.
08:59A nurse stepped out.
09:01Your father suffered a heart attack triggered by extreme distress.
09:04There are complications.
09:05You will have to prepare $1 million for the next stage of treatment.
09:08Emma lunged forward.
09:10Please, I have money.
09:11I will pay right now.
09:12She ran to billing, shoved her card forward.
09:14The clerk swiped, tried again.
09:16The screen flashed red.
09:18Miss Donovan, your payment did not go through.
09:20Transaction history scrolled.
09:22Paid, auction house.
09:23Damien had drained her account to buy Blair's necklace.
09:26Emma slid down against the counter, tears falling.
09:29A week ago, Damien had stood in front of her father and held her hand.
09:33Sir, you have my word.
09:34I will take care of Emma for the rest of my life.
09:36Her father had pressed a bank card into Damien's palm.
09:39Money saved for her future.
09:41Emma forced herself upright and dialed Blair's number.
09:44Blair's voice came through.
09:45Emma Donovan.
09:46Did you like my little gift?
09:48I got the $22 million.
09:49You have only got $8 million left.
09:51Keep going.
09:52But I will be generous.
09:54I will knock off $5 million.
09:56Consider it my husband's entertainment budget.
09:58Emma's vision went white.
10:00Give me $10 million.
10:01And return the $2 million that was mine.
10:03The money I earned.
10:04The money my father gave.
10:06I do not care about the jewelry Damien bought me.
10:08But you do not get to take what I earned and what my dad sacrificed.
10:12Blair said.
10:12You think you get to negotiate with me?
10:14Emma swallowed.
10:15I still have the evidence from back then.
10:17Silence.
10:17You touch my father again, you do anything else to me or my family, and I release everything.
10:22Blair's breath went sharp.
10:24That is impossible, I destroyed it.
10:26Try me.
10:26Let us see what happens when Harbor City finds out who you really are.
10:30Let us see if Damien stays married to you.
10:32The silence stretched.
10:33Then Blair spoke again.
10:35Fine.
10:35Emma Donovan, you win this round.
10:37Five minutes later.
10:38Emma's phone buzzed.
10:40A deposit $12 million.
10:41In the surgical wing.
10:43Emma knelt on the floor.
10:44Memories would not leave her alone.
10:46Damien's voice.
10:47We are gonna have a good future.
10:49Em.
10:50You will see.
10:52Another night, his arms around her.
10:54My dad loves kids.
10:56Let us have two, okay?
10:59The doors opened.
11:00A doctor stepped out.
11:01Behind him, a gurney rolled forward.
11:04Ms. Donovan.
11:04We did everything we could.
11:06I am so sorry.
11:08We lost him.
11:09If the payment had come through sooner, even five minutes earlier.
11:12Five minutes.
11:13The exact five minutes she stood at the billing counter.
11:16Emma lifted the white sheet.
11:17The moment she saw her father's face, her knees hit the floor.
11:20A sound tore out of her raw animal.
11:22Michael Donovan lay still.
11:24Quiet.
11:24Finished.
11:25After that, Emma did not speak.
11:27She moved like a machine until her father was taken for cremation.
11:30When she was handed the urn, she held it against her chest.
11:33Dad.
11:34She whispered.
11:35I am going to get justice.
11:36I am going to make every single person who did this to us pay.
11:39She brought him home to the small house.
11:41She walked into his bedroom, collapsed onto the bed.
11:44When she shifted, something hard jabbed the back of her head.
11:47She lifted the pillow, a USB drive.
11:49Her pulse stuttered.
11:50She turned on her laptop.
11:52A single folder appeared.
11:53For my daughter's revenge.
11:55Photos filled the screen.
11:56Evidence she thought was gone forever.
11:58Blair's pranks.
12:00The bruises.
12:00Time stamps.
12:02Messages.
12:02Names.
12:03Her father had hidden a copy.
12:05In the one place no one bothered to search.
12:07Emma let out a slow, trembling breath.
12:09Damien had planned a live-streamed wedding.
12:11A spectacle meant to destroy her.
12:14Fine.
12:14Let him set the stage.
12:15The trap he built for her had just become the sharpest weapon in her hands.
12:19When Emma got home, Damien was on the balcony on a call.
12:22Yeah, the wedding is being live-streamed from start to finish.
12:24I want everyone to know it was Emma who framed Blair back then.
12:28I want everyone she knows in the room, especially her father.
12:30He needs to be front row.
12:32I want him to watch his daughter get exposed.
12:34Emma's throat tightened.
12:35He knew her dad's heart was fragile.
12:37He knew her father was the only person.
12:39He had left.
12:40A strange calm settled over her.
12:42When Damien ended the call and stepped inside, she walked up and looped her arms around his waist.
12:47I did not want to interrupt your work.
12:48She said, Damien's shoulders loosened, he kissed her hair.
12:52You have no idea how much I missed you.
12:54He pulled out a jewelry box and settled a chain around her neck.
12:57I saw it on the trip, it felt like you.
12:59It was stupid expensive, like a thousand bucks.
13:02Three days he had not texted her once, but now he played devoted boyfriend.
13:06He traced the pendant.
13:07Baby, three days from now, at the wedding, wear this when you marry me, okay?
13:11Emma tilted her head against his shoulder inside, there was only one thought.
13:15There is no us after this.
13:17That night, when Damien fell asleep, Emma slipped out of bed.
13:20She opened the dresser drawer and found the USB drive.
13:23She replaced it with the identical one she had prepared.
13:25When she returned to bed, Damien shifted, reaching for her.
13:29Old scars throbbed.
13:30He woke halfway.
13:31Emma, you hurting again?
13:32His hand found her knee automatically, massaging the tender points.
13:36Emma swallowed.
13:36Damien, have you ever thought about our future?
13:39His hand stilled then.
13:40I have.
13:41I want a kid.
13:41With you, our future could be a real family.
13:44Emma said.
13:44We would be good parents.
13:46If it is a girl, I will teach her how to dance.
13:48We will protect them, right?
13:50We will not let them go through what I did, being bullied in high school.
13:53The air changed instantly.
13:55Damien's hand slid off her knee.
13:56His body turned away.
13:58Go to sleep.
13:58Emma lay there in the dark.
13:59The moment she reminded him of who Blair really was, that man vanished.
14:03The day before the wedding, Emma moved back into her dad's old house.
14:07Damien texted relentlessly.
14:08Emma, I cannot believe I finally get to marry you, wifey.
14:11I cannot sleep, I miss you like crazy.
14:14Every night she stared at his messages.
14:16Each one carried poison.
14:17She replied with photos.
14:18I am looking at our pictures.
14:20His video call came instantly.
14:22Damien's face filled the screen.
14:24I know every photo, this first one.
14:26That is when I told you I liked you.
14:28And this one, our cake disaster.
14:30You got frosting on your nose.
14:31He talked and talked, pointing out details, telling the story of their relationship like
14:35it was his favorite movie.
14:36Emma watched him.
14:37expressions still, those, three months away were not a business trip, they were his wedding.
14:41Before he hung up, he smiled.
14:43Emma, this is the best part.
14:45When you wake up tomorrow, you will be my wife.
14:47Emma ended the call by tomorrow it would all be over.
14:50The next morning she moved fast, wheeled her packed luggage out before sunrise, headed
14:54straight to the airport.
14:56As she settled into her seat, she pulled out her phone.
14:58The stream was already live.
14:59Damien had invited everyone.
15:01Friends, co-workers, cameras lining the aisle, up front.
15:04Blair arrived with his assistant.
15:06Damien entered under the lights, perfectly composed.
15:09He did not glance at the woman in the bridal gown, a substitute, a decoy.
15:13Damien stepped up to the mic.
15:15Before we begin, there is something I need to clear up.
15:17The truth is, years ago, Emma Donovan falsely accused my wife, Blair Reed, of bullying her.
15:23Because of that lie, Blair had no choice but to leave the country.
15:26So today, in front of all of you, I am asking you to witness the truth, to restore my wife's
15:31name.
15:32He nodded toward the screen, the massive display flickered to life.
15:35Blair, please, do not, do not burn me with a cigarette, ah.
15:39On the plane, the sound came through tinny, but the horror was unmistakable, Emma's vision
15:43blurred.
15:44A flight attendant crouched beside her.
15:46Madam, are you okay?
15:48Emma blinked, her cheeks were wet, she wiped them away.
15:50I am fine, I am happy.
15:52She glanced at the live stream.
15:54The venue in full meltdown, Damien's face tightening as his, evidence turned on him.
15:59The flight attendant smiled.
16:00Please put your phone away, we are about to take off.
16:03Emma nodded and shut the screen.
16:05As the plane broke through the clouds, sunlight spilled across the cabin.
16:08Emma closed her eyes.
16:10Goodbye, Damien Sinclair.
16:11The scream hit the speakers like a blade, then another voice.
16:14Emma Donovan, you think you can beat me?
16:16Steel, what is mine?
16:17The scream rolled, frame after frame of Blair Reed shoving Emma into a walk-in freezer,
16:22pointing while other girls dumped filthy water over her head.
16:25A red-hot cigarette tip pressed into Emma's forearm.
16:27Damien turned so fast the mic clipped his jaw.
16:30He stared at the footage.
16:31Turn it off, now.
16:32Blair said.
16:33In the front row, Blair shot to her feet.
16:35Shut it down right now.
16:36The assistant lunged for the controls.
16:38The display went black, but cameras had caught Blair's face.
16:41A stunned hush swallowed the venue.
16:43Damien did not move.
16:44Blair rushed up, grabbing his arm.
16:46Damien, listen to me.
16:47I can explain.
16:49That video is fake, it is edited.
16:50It is Emma.
16:51She is trying to set me up.
16:52She whirled toward the bride, lunging.
16:54There she is.
16:55Emma Donovan, you psycho.
16:57Damien's grip snapped around her wrist and yanked her back.
17:00Shut up, Blair Reed.
17:01How am I supposed to believe you after what I just saw?
17:04His gaze slid to the bride.
17:05Up close, the woman in white was not Emma.
17:07Similar features, but her eyes did not know him.
17:10He scanned the front row where Michael Donovan should have been.
17:12The man sitting there looked vaguely similar, not enough.
17:15He seized the bride's wrist.
17:16Who are you?
17:17Where is the woman who hired you?
17:19The bride's eyes widened.
17:20I was paid I do not know anything.
17:22Damien fumbled for his phone, dialed Emma's number.
17:25Once, twice, again, an automated voice.
17:27The number you have reached is no longer in service.
17:30The phone slipped from his fingers.
17:32One tear dropped onto the aisle runner.
17:34She knows.
17:34A voice cut through.
17:35Mr. Sinclair?
17:37From a Ms. Donovan.
17:38A delivery guy stood in the doorway holding a package.
17:41Damien's assistant cleared the hall.
17:43Damien walked to the doors, took the box, tore into the wrapping, he lifted the lid.
17:46Inside, a stack of documents lay perfectly aligned on top, a familiar line.
17:50At Mrs. Reed's request, I am hereby pursuing the recovery of $30 million in marital assets.
17:57Beneath it, a thick file, screenshots, transcripts, everything that had just played on the screen
18:01then one more page, a death certificate, Michael Donovan.
18:04It was the same day he threw money around at the auction, drained Emma's account down
18:08to zero so Blair could have her necklace.
18:10The same day Emma stood at a billing counter watching declined while her father slipped away.
18:14Damien seized his assistant by the collar.
18:16Find out what happened, every detail, right now, and find Emma Donovan.
18:21Across the aisle, Blair watched his face change.
18:24Damien, do not do this, do not dig, Emma's life has nothing to do with us, this was the
18:28point, this was revenge.
18:30Damien turned slowly when his eyes landed on Blair.
18:33The look was not love, it was assessment.
18:35Blair, back then, did you really not bully Emma?
18:37The question hung there.
18:39Damien Sinclair had always hated bullies because his little sister had been 16 and she came
18:42home from school quieter, until one morning she never came home at all.
18:46It was why he believed Blair without question, why he burned with hatred for the girl who
18:50lied.
18:51Now, with a death certificate in his hands, he realized the monster might have been the
18:55woman beside him.
18:56Blair's eyes reddened instantly.
18:58Damien Sinclair, you are seriously questioning me?
19:00Those videos are fake, they're AI, I did not do any of that.
19:03Damien's gaze stayed on her.
19:05Blair, you know what I hate more than anything, people who lie to me, you would better pray that
19:09you really had nothing to do with what happened to Emma.
19:11He turned away from her and walked off.
19:14Blair chased after him.
19:15Damien, you said it, remember?
19:17You said no matter what I did to Emma, you did not care, what is this?
19:20Do not tell me you actually fell in love with her.
19:23His steps slowed he stopped not turning around, love.
19:25He echoed, three years telling himself Emma was a tool.
19:28But somewhere inside that lie real life had happened anyway he got used to a cramped apartment
19:32and cheap dinners.
19:33He learned the rhythm of two people sharing space, he held Emma through pain and nightmares,
19:37and he craved that quiet stability like oxygen.
19:39I do not know.
19:40He said at last.
19:41But I do know this, if you lied to me, I will make you wish you were dead.
19:45Mr. Sinclair, these are the results.
19:47Damien's assistant set the report on the desk.
19:50The video footage shown today is authentic, it was not edited, staged, or fabricated.
19:54Back then, Mrs. Reed did bully Ms. Donovan.
19:56It went on for two years.
19:57When Ms. Donovan gathered evidence and posted it, the Reed family suppressed it and sent
20:01Mrs. Reed overseas.
20:03Damien had seen Emma's scars, he traced them with his fingertips.
20:06Burn marks, bruises that flared in winter, he watched her crumple from pain and still,
20:10every time she spoke Blair's name he treated her like a liar.
20:13Seven days ago, you authorized the recovery of the money you spent on Ms. Donovan, and
20:17you instructed that no attorney in Harbor City was to represent her.
20:20Ms. Donovan sold everything you bought her to repay the debt, but the funds were taken
20:24from her account and used to purchase jewelry.
20:26The assistant paused.
20:27On that same day, Mrs. Reed had someone contact Ms. Donovan's father, he was shown private
20:32information meant to humiliate her, he suffered a heart attack, Ms. Donovan could not pay in
20:36time.
20:36Damien's eyes flicked up.
20:38Ms. Donovan threatened to release the old school evidence as leverage, Mrs. Reed transferred
20:42money, Ms. Donovan got the funds, but it was too late, her father did not make it.
20:46Damien sat back as if his body forgot how to hold itself upright, 30 million in debt, her
20:51career destroyed, her reputation shredded, a live streamed trial designed to humiliate
20:55her, and then her father, gone, because she stood at a billing counter watching $000 while
21:00he died.
21:01Sir, while you were overseas, your phone was configured to automatically block Ms. Donovan's
21:05messages and calls.
21:06Damien went still, that was why he missed her calls, why he never heard her begging, he
21:10was not just the man who hurt her, he was the reason her father died.
21:13Ms. Donovan appears to have completed a legal identity change, I have not been able to locate
21:17her under her former records, but we can confirm one thing, she left the
21:21The assistant left, Damien stayed alone in the cramped apartment, the closet was half
21:25bare, the matching toothbrushes gone, their printed photos cut up and tossed into the
21:29trash.
21:30There was a hole inside him now, somewhere along the way, he fell in love with her,
21:34the real Emma, the quiet evenings, the shared cheap meals, the way she looked at him like
21:38he was home.
21:38And now even that was gone, Emma Donovan did not want him, she hated him.
21:42When Damien got back to the estate, Blair had been waiting for hours, she reached for
21:46him out of reflex, he shifted away.
21:48Damien, you're back.
21:49Blair said he walked past, dropped onto the sofa and sat in silence.
21:52Damien, look, I will admit it, I did things back then, I messed up, but you know why, my
21:57parents were strict, they expected perfection, Emma showed up and suddenly everyone was looking
22:02at her, I felt threatened, I know I was wrong, but we are married, you have to help me.
22:07Damien let out a short laugh.
22:08Help you?
22:09Blair Reed, how exactly do you want me to help you?
22:11Blair said.
22:12We tell them the truth, we say Emma found out you are my husband and she freaked out, she
22:16got jealous and faked the footage.
22:18She stopped, Damien looked at her.
22:20So we do what we did 10 years ago.
22:22We dump it on Emma and let her carry it all, you bullied her, you put snakes in her bed,
22:27you locked her in a freezer, you had people pour filth on her and laugh while she begged.
22:31And you thought I would not find out?
22:33I found the classmates who lied for you, they admitted everything.
22:36His voice dropped.
22:37And then you did it again, you forced Emma into that debt, you made sure no one could
22:41represent her, you humiliated her, bled her dry, you killed her father.
22:45Blair could not move.
22:46Blair Reed, you lied to me, my life has no room for someone like you, I am divorcing
22:51you, and I will personally make sure you end up exactly where you belong, in hell.
22:55Blair's control snapped.
22:56So that is it, you are throwing me away, I am your wife.
22:59Tell me the truth, did you fall in love with Emma Donovan?
23:02Did you?
23:03Damien's gaze cut to Blair, cold, flat, he did not answer out loud, he did not have
23:07to, the truth sat between them.
23:09Somewhere along the way he fell for Emma Donovan.
23:11Blair's lips curled.
23:13So that is it, you do not even bother pretending, but it does not matter, Damien, it is already
23:17over, whatever fantasy you are clinging to, whatever you think you can fix, she is gone,
23:22and do not stand there acting like I did this alone.
23:24Everything I did, you allowed, you lied to her for three years, you played poor boy boyfriend
23:29in a one bedroom rental, you took her money, you blocked her cries for her,
23:32help, you indirectly killed her father, and today?
23:35You are going to humiliate her on a live stream, you really think she is going to forgive you?
23:40Each word sawed through Damien's chest, Blair was not wrong, he had known Blair since childhood,
23:44he believed the tears, now all he could see was Emma's scars, Emma trusting him with her
23:48history, and him turning around and using it like ammunition.
23:52It is your fault, all of it.
23:53He said finally, Blair's expression flickered.
23:56Damien took one step closer.
23:58If I get rid of you, Emma will forgive me.
24:00It was a lie, and part of him knew it, but he needed it anyway because if Emma would
24:03not forgive him he would have to live inside what he did.
24:06You know me, Blair, I do not let people walk away from what they have done,
24:09you are going to pay, and I will call it an apology to Emma.
24:12He turned and walked out.
24:14Outside he got into the car and called his assistant.
24:16Any update?
24:17Where is Emma Donovan?
24:18The answer came after a pause.
24:20I am sorry, sir, we still have not found her, the identity change paperwork is real,
24:24she erased herself clean.
24:26Damien's fingers clenched around the phone.
24:27Keep looking.
24:28F country.
24:29Emma sat across from a physician in a small clinic.
24:31Three months ago she landed in a foreign airport with a new passport.
24:35A new name she bounced from city to city until she stopped in this quiet town.
24:39Ms. Donovan, how have you been feeling?
24:40The doctor asked.
24:41Emma hesitated.
24:42Better than before, but at night, I still get hit with it, I still want to cry.
24:47Sometimes I cannot sleep, eating is a little better.
24:49The doctor studied her.
24:50And do you still have impulses to harm yourself?
24:53Emma's gaze drifted to her wrist, a pale, shallow line sat there.
24:56No, not anymore, now I want to live.
24:59The first month had been pure survival, she could not sleep.
25:02When she closed her eyes, tears slid down, her hair came out in handfuls,
25:05food tasted like ash when she drifted off, dreams punished her.
25:09She started losing time then the bathtub, she remembered water, warm at first,
25:13she remembered sinking lower, the thought arriving.
25:15If I stop fighting it stops hurting, a sharp sting snapped her back,
25:19she sat up in red water, staring at her own wrist.
25:21She stumbled to the hospital.
25:23Diagnosis.
25:24Severe depression, acute trauma response, suicidal ideation, medication monitoring time.
25:29Now three months later the doctor said.
25:31There is improvement, but you still need to stay on the medication.
25:35Emma nodded, took the prescription slip and walked out.
25:37Outside, a massive screen played international news,
25:40Harbor City flashed across the banner.
25:42Breaking.
25:43Sinclair Group CEO Damien Sinclair and wife Blair Reid have officially filed for divorce.
25:48Reportedly linked to Mrs. Reid's high school scandal.
25:50Sinclair Group has launched a multi-front offensive against the Reid family's holdings.
25:54Emma watched the entire segment, she felt nothing.
25:57She exhaled and turned away, she did not want revenge,
25:59she did not want updates, she wanted that entire world to lose the ability to reach her.
26:03She stepped outside, sunlight hit her full on, she took one step.
26:07Then arms wrapped around her from behind, tight and sudden,
26:10a scent crashed into her senses, cedar clean soap, that familiar expensive cologne note.
26:15Emma went rigid, a voice brushed her ear.
26:17Emma, I finally found you, you have no idea how much I missed you these past three months.
26:22Get the hell off me.
26:23Emma wrenched herself out of the arms behind her.
26:25The paper bag tore open, pill bottles clattered across the sidewalk before Damien could speak,
26:30her palms snapped across his face.
26:32Emma stood shaking.
26:33Is your revenge not over?
26:35What are you doing here?
26:36Why are you still hunting me down?
26:38Why will you not just leave me alone?
26:40You lied to me for three years, you cost me my job,
26:43You drove my father into the grave, you almost killed me.
26:46And now you are here because what, you want to finish it?
26:49You want to break whatever is left until I am not even sane anymore?
26:52I am just a regular person, so have some mercy, for once in your life, have mercy and let me
26:57go.
26:58Damien did not move, he stared at her when he finally spoke, it was not to defend himself.
27:02Emma, you are so thin, why are you here alone?
27:05Are you sick?
27:06Are you hurt?
27:07Emma's stomach turned, for three months he haunted her dreams,
27:10In dreams he was the man who held her hand,
27:12In nightmares he was the man who pushed her into darkness.
27:15Now both stood in front of her wearing the same skin.
27:18He stumbled back, every muscle locked,
27:20She crouched snatching the scattered medicine off the ground,
27:23Stuffing everything back into the torn bag.
27:26She started to move past him,
27:27Damien's hand shot out and caught her wrist.
27:30Emma, please, give me one chance to explain,
27:32I was wrong, I trusted the wrong person,
27:35I believed lies, I misunderstood you,
27:37I know you cannot forgive me,
27:39I do not even deserve to ask,
27:41Just give me a chance to make it right, to make it up to you.
27:44Emma stared at his hand on her wrist,
27:45She ripped herself free.
27:47Let go.
27:48She lifted her eyes to his.
27:49Damien Sinclair,
27:51What makes you think I could ever forgive you because you want to compensate me?
27:54The Emma who loved you is dead,
27:56She died the day my father died,
27:58Killed by the man who was supposed to protect me.
28:00You want forgiveness?
28:02Bring my dad back.
28:03Damien stood there staring at Emma,
28:05He rehearsed this.
28:06Every apology,
28:07Every explanation but now that she was in front of him every word collapsed.
28:11Silence stretched then he stepped back and dropped to his knees on the pavement.
28:14My sister,
28:15She went through what you went through,
28:16She got bullied,
28:17She never recovered,
28:18And I took my regret,
28:20My rage,
28:20Everything I could not fix for her and I threw it at you,
28:23That was my fault,
28:24All of it,
28:25But your dad,
28:25Emma,
28:26I swear,
28:27That was not what I wanted,
28:28I did not know Blair did that,
28:29I did not know she set you up,
28:31She installed an interception system on my phone,
28:33I did not get your messages,
28:35I did not see you calling,
28:36I did not know you were begging for help.
28:38Emma let out a short bitter sound she looked down at him,
28:41Did you really not know?
28:42Damien,
28:43We were together for three years,
28:44You saw me wake up screaming from nightmares,
28:47You saw the scars on my body,
28:48Hundreds of them,
28:49You watched me fold in on myself from pain and still you never believed me,
28:53Three years,
28:53I loved you like an idiot for three years,
28:56She started reciting his own words,
28:57The wedding will be live streamed,
28:59I want everyone to know that Emma Donovan framed Blair,
29:02I want everyone she knows there,
29:03Especially her father,
29:05Seat him in the front row,
29:06I want him to watch while his daughter becomes the kind of woman people spit on,
29:09Damien's face drained,
29:11I gave you chances,
29:12I gave you so many,
29:13When you said those things,
29:14What did you think I would feel?
29:15I am asking you straight,
29:17If I had begged you,
29:18If I had fallen to my knees like you are now,
29:20Would you have believed me?
29:21Damien's mouth opened,
29:22No sound came out,
29:23The answer was there,
29:24He would not have,
29:26Damien's eyes reddened,
29:27He crawled forward on his knees,
29:28Emma,
29:29Come back with me,
29:30Please,
29:31I divorced Blair,
29:32It is over,
29:32We can get married for real,
29:34I will give you the wedding you deserved,
29:36I will make it up to you a hundred times over,
29:38Emma stared at him with an expression so empty it was worse than rage,
29:41Then she smiled not with warmth,
29:43With disgust,
29:44Damien,
29:44Do you know what I want more than your compensation?
29:46I want you out of my life,
29:48Completely,
29:49Forever,
29:49Your face,
29:50Makes me sick,
29:51Emma told herself Damien would burn out fast,
29:53Men like him did not linger in small foreign towns,
29:56He had a company,
29:57A board,
29:57A reputation,
29:58But Damien Sinclair did not leave,
30:00He lasted a full month,
30:02He rented an apartment next door,
30:03Flowers arrived in relentless waves,
30:05Meals followed,
30:06Three a day,
30:07Cooked by his hands,
30:08Gifts meant to impress,
30:09Limited edition watches,
30:11Expensive jewelry,
30:12None of it earned him a single glance,
30:14One morning,
30:15Emma caught his voice through the hallway,
30:16He was on the phone with his assistant,
30:18Sir,
30:18People at headquarters are furious,
30:20They are demanding you return immediately,
30:22Damien said,
30:23I am staying,
30:24As long as Emma has not forgiven me,
30:26I am not going anywhere,
30:27I will take every meeting remotely,
30:29The assistant hesitated,
30:30Sir,
30:30Your campaign against the Reed family is becoming a scorched earth situation,
30:34The Reeds are offering to hand over Blair if you will stop crushing their company,
30:37Damien said,
30:38If it were not for Blair Reed,
30:39Emma and I would not be here,
30:41Not just Blair,
30:42Her whole family owes Emma an apology,
30:44Keep hitting them,
30:44I want Blair and the Reeds to pay,
30:46Emma listened without expression,
30:48It did not soothe her,
30:49It did not satisfy her,
30:50It was just noise,
30:51She stepped past him as if he was furniture,
30:53Damien cut the call,
30:55Emma,
30:55Are you going out?
30:56She did not answer since his arrival,
30:58Her symptoms crept back,
30:59Insomnia,
31:00Nausea,
31:00Nights where memories sat on her chest until morning,
31:03She headed to the hospital,
31:04At the entrance,
31:05The revolving door swallowed her,
31:07Damien lost sight of her,
31:08He pulled out his phone,
31:09Find out what department she checked into,
31:11Now,
31:12The assistant answered fast,
31:13Sir Ms. Donovan's appointment is with psychiatry,
31:16Damien went still,
31:17And there is more,
31:18We just got confirmation Blair Reed is gone,
31:20She slipped her security and left the country,
31:22She landed in F country about 6 hours ago,
31:24Damien's grip tightened around the phone,
31:26He stared at the hospital doors,
31:27He pushed Blair into a corner for weeks,
31:30Publicly,
31:30Financially,
31:31Relentlessly,
31:32Until she had nothing left but desperation,
31:34Blair was here,
31:35By the time Damien reached the psychiatry wing,
31:37He spotted Emma immediately,
31:38And then he saw her,
31:40A woman bundled up too tightly,
31:41Hat pulled low,
31:42Mask high,
31:43She moved through the chairs,
31:44Inching closer to Emma,
31:45Her right hand stayed buried in her coat pocket,
31:47Damien shouted,
31:49Emma,
31:49Watch out,
31:50The masked woman flinched,
31:51Her hand shot out,
31:52Metal flashed,
31:53A blade swung straight toward Emma's head,
31:56Damien threw himself forward and caught the knife,
31:58Bare handed the edge sliced through his palm,
32:00Blood burst free and spattered across Emma's cheek,
32:02Damien gritted his teeth,
32:04Clamped down harder,
32:05And with a savage twist yanked the attacker off balance
32:07And hurled her sideways she hit the floor,
32:10Damien turned to Emma fast,
32:11Emma,
32:12Do not look,
32:12I am fine,
32:13I have got you,
32:14Emma's face went paper white,
32:16On the floor,
32:17The woman lifted her head,
32:18Blair Reed,
32:18Her cheeks hollow,
32:19Her eyes blazing,
32:20Damien Sinclair,
32:21Emma Donovan,
32:22Her voice shook with hatred,
32:24Why will you not just die?
32:25You ruined me,
32:26You did this to me,
32:28After the wedding footage exploded,
32:29Damien's retaliation had been relentless,
32:32The internet devoured Blair,
32:33Media ran the story like a feast,
32:35Without Sinclair protection,
32:37The Reeds could not silence anyone,
32:39Sinclair group hit the Reed family like a storm,
32:41Contracts cut,
32:42Capital pulled,
32:43Their company collapsed,
32:44Then Damien's lawyers came for Blair personally,
32:46Divorce,
32:47Lawsuits,
32:47Asset seizures,
32:48Her family sold her to an old man to raise money,
32:51Blair fought her way out by hurting him,
32:53Then ran,
32:53The old man retaliated with leaked photos,
32:56Overnight,
32:56Blair became a disgraced headline,
32:58And Sinclair's legal team built an airtight case,
33:01All they needed was Emma's authorization to press charges,
33:04Blair could not survive that so she blamed them,
33:06It was you,
33:07Blair shrieked,
33:08Thrashing against the floor,
33:09In high school,
33:10You were the problem,
33:11You were nothing,
33:12And you still dared to rank above me,
33:14Of course I bullied you,
33:15That is how the world works,
33:17And you,
33:17Damien Sinclair,
33:18You were my accomplice,
33:19You helped me,
33:20So who the hell do you think you are,
33:21Acting righteous now,
33:23Why are you crushing me for her,
33:24If it was not for you,
33:25If it was not for her,
33:26I would still be on top,
33:27Emma watched,
33:28Numb and detached,
33:29Blair on the floor crying and cackling,
33:31Emma thought she would feel satisfaction,
33:33She felt empty,
33:34Blair dug into her bag again,
33:35Another blade,
33:36Smaller but just as bright,
33:38Emma froze,
33:38The old trauma reflex slammed into place,
33:41Blair lunged straight at Emma,
33:43Damien moved first,
33:44He stepped in front of Emma without hesitation,
33:46The knife drove in,
33:47A wet,
33:48Brutal sound,
33:49Emma screamed,
33:50Damien,
33:51Security crashed in,
33:52Pinning Blair down,
33:53She fought like an animal,
33:54Laughing,
33:54Go to hell,
33:55Emma barely heard it,
33:56Damien folded,
33:57Knees buckling,
33:58Blood blooming across his shirt,
33:59He hit the floor in front of her,
34:01Emma dropped with him,
34:02Pressing her palms to the wound,
34:04Blood pushed between her fingers,
34:05Hold on,
34:06Don't give up,
34:07He choked,
34:08Damien's mouth curved into a faint smile,
34:10With his uninjured hand,
34:11He reached up and covered her eyes,
34:13Emma,
34:14Do not be scared,
34:15His hand trembled against her lashes,
34:17His eyes began to flutter closed,
34:19If I die,
34:20It gives you back a life,
34:21Could you hate me a little less?
34:22The operating room light stayed on for hours,
34:25Emma sat frozen outside the doors,
34:27Her white blouse soaked with his blood,
34:29Footsteps approached,
34:30Sinclair family elders security,
34:32Assistance,
34:33Damien's mother,
34:34Where is he?
34:35How is my son?
34:36Emma shook her head mechanically,
34:37An assistant stepped forward with a folder,
34:40Ms. Donovan,
34:41I need you to sign this,
34:42Emma took it asset transfer agreement,
34:44Mr. Sinclair instructed me in advance,
34:46He had this drafted weeks ago,
34:47All assets under his name approximately 3 billion are to be transferred to you,
34:513 billion,
34:52A hundred times more than the 30 million they squeezed out of her,
34:55Damien's mother stepped closer,
34:57I know what my son did to you,
34:58If something happens to him,
35:00If he does not make it,
35:01This is probably the only wish he has left,
35:03Sign it,
35:03Please,
35:04Emma's fingers tightened around the pen,
35:06With Damien's blood still drying on her skin,
35:08Emma signed,
35:09The hallway settled back into quiet,
35:11Then the surgery light went out,
35:13The surgeon stepped into the corridor,
35:15We brought him back,
35:16He survived the surgery,
35:17But whether he makes it through the critical window depends on him,
35:20When they wheeled Damien out,
35:21Emma followed,
35:22She leaned down close to his ear,
35:24Damien,
35:25He stayed in the ICU for half a month,
35:2715 days of alarms and visiting hours,
35:29Emma sat in a chair watching his chest rise and fall,
35:32On the 15th day he regained consciousness,
35:34Emma walked in and found him sitting slightly elevated,
35:37He heard the door and slowly turned his head,
35:39Emma,
35:39You are here,
35:40She sat beside the bed,
35:41Careful with the space between them,
35:43Damien stared at his hands then lifted his gaze,
35:46Emma,
35:46I am sorry,
35:47If it were not for me,
35:48You would not be sick,
35:49You went to a therapist,
35:51Psychiatry,
35:52In my head,
35:52You were always unbreakable,
35:54The toughest person I knew,
35:55You always smiled,
35:56Even when you should not have,
35:58He saw the truth in the paperwork,
35:59The pale scar on her wrist,
36:01There is something Blair said that was actually true,
36:03I am not innocent,
36:04I was her accomplice,
36:06Not because I held the knife,
36:07Because I gave her power,
36:08Because I believed her,
36:10Because I used you,
36:11And your father died because of me,
36:12His eyes reddened,
36:13In the coma,
36:14I saw him,
36:15He was standing by a river,
36:16Just looking at me,
36:17I know my existence only hurts you,
36:19If you want,
36:20I will disappear,
36:21Completely,
36:22I will never show up in your world again,
36:24But Emma,
36:24I need to ask one last time,
36:26Can you really not give me a chance to atone?
36:28Emma looked at Damien,
36:30Really looked at him,
36:30His eyes were red,
36:31Three years ago when he confessed,
36:33His eyes were red then too,
36:34Back then she panicked,
36:35Swept up by the feeling that being chosen meant being safe,
36:37But three years later,
36:39Staring into those same eyes,
36:40Emma could only find one thing she was willing to give him,
36:43Damien,
36:44His head jerked up,
36:45For a heartbeat he did not breathe,
36:46Then tears came,
36:47There is no us anymore,
36:49Not in any universe where I survive,
36:51Do not show up in my life again,
36:52Ever,
36:53She stood,
36:54She had come to put a period at the end of a sentence that had been bleeding for too long,
36:57As she turned toward the door,
36:59Damien stared at her retreating back,
37:00The moment the door clicked shut the monitors began to scream,
37:04His heart raced,
37:05Too fast,
37:06Too hard,
37:06He collapsed back onto the bed for a second he thought,
37:08Maybe it is better if I die right now,
37:10Three years later,
37:12F country,
37:13Damien stood at a distance,
37:14Half hidden behind a line of people in cafe umbrellas watching Emma,
37:17She looked well,
37:18The real kind,
37:19The kind that returned after you rebuilt your life from ash,
37:21A new job,
37:22New friends,
37:22A new rhythm,
37:23For three years he went back and forth between Harbor City and this country like a ghost,
37:27Some visits he did not even get close enough to hear her voice,
37:30Sometimes he only saw her from across the street,
37:32He accepted that,
37:33Then he saw the man beside her,
37:34Tall,
37:35Clean cut,
37:35Her boss,
37:36Then something more younger than Damien,
37:37Wealthier,
37:38The man turned toward Emma,
37:39Smiling and dropped to one knee,
37:41Emma Donovan,
37:42Marry me,
37:42Damien's fingers flexed at his side,
37:44Instinct screamed at him to move,
37:46To interrupt,
37:47But he did not,
37:47He could not,
37:48What was he?
37:49A man who did not earn the right to stand in front of her again,
37:52He stayed where he was,
37:53Jaw clenched so tightly it ached,
37:55Three years ago,
37:56Blair's knife went deep,
37:57Damien survived,
37:58But his heart had not forgiven him,
38:00Congestive failure,
38:01Progressive damage,
38:02No miracles,
38:03He nodded like it did not matter when Emma left,
38:05He took the last piece of him that wanted to live,
38:07Now watching her glow under soft afternoon light,
38:10Watching her hands hover over a ring box,
38:12Yes,
38:13I do,
38:13The words sliced Damien open,
38:15He could almost hear her voice from six years ago,
38:18Only this time,
38:19The yes,
38:19Was not for him,
38:20I didn't endure half of him,
38:20For him,
38:20Grazie a tutti.
