Transcript
00:07One month before the Crown Pianist auditions, my fiancée paid five million dollars to have my hands broken for my
00:14adopted sister.
00:29Boss, she's the Sterling Music Group heir. Her fiancée, Adrian, runs half the classical scene in New York. You sure
00:35we will touch her?
00:36Relax, boys. Client paid five million, and he swore that once we wreck her hands, nobody comes after us.
00:50No! I trained three whole years for the Crown auditions! Somebody help me!
01:02I started playing at seven, 14 hours a day. For this audition, I gave up friends, holidays. I even pushed
01:09through tenditis to finish rehearsals. But today, they broke my fingers, one by one.
01:26It's Adrian. My fiancée finally came for me. Why did he stop?
01:32So, are our hands completely ruined?
01:37One is my fiancée. The other is the sister I trusted most. Why do they look like they're celebrating my
01:43hands being destroyed?
01:46I forced myself out of bed through the pain and walked barefoot to the room next door.
01:53The door wasn't shut all the way.
01:57Adrian slid an arm around Chloe's waist and kissed her again.
02:01How are you going to reward me? The doctor said she can't even hold a cup, let alone compete.
02:06Chloe leaned into him.
02:08So the lead singlest spot is mine now?
02:10She looked up at him.
02:12I'll let you marry me.
02:14Adrian laughed, scooped her up, and spun her around.
02:17Done. The lead spot, the wedding, the Sterling family shares, all yours.
02:22My whole body went ragged. A month ago, Adrian had knelt on one knee on the stage at Carnegie Hall.
02:27He said the first time he heard me play, he knew he'd found the person he wanted to protect for
02:32the rest of his life.
02:32Now the same man was celebrating the ruin of my hands.
02:36I pushed the door open.
02:37Chloe saw me. Her smile didn't slip.
02:39You heard?
02:40Adrian panicked for a second, then went calm.
02:42Since you know, we can stop pretending.
02:44Adrian, I'm your fiancé.
02:46You were.
02:47He pulled off the engagement ring and threw it at my feet.
02:51I'm not marrying a cripple who can't even sign her own name.
02:55Chloe stepped on the ring.
02:56Sis, you've had it long enough.
02:58I'm only taking back what was mine to begin with.
03:00I lifted my banded hands.
03:02You two paid to destroy me.
03:04Dad won't let this go.
03:06Chloe leaned close and gave a soft laugh.
03:09You really think Dad wants your hands to heal?
03:15The next day, my father and my brother Owen came to see me.
03:22Dad patted my shoulder.
03:24Just rest, Evelyn.
03:26I'll handle everything.
03:28Then he walked into the conference room with Owen and my lead doctor.
03:37I followed and hid outside the half-open door, listening.
03:42I heard my father lower his voice.
03:45If she gets the nerve reconstruction, can she compete in a month?
03:49The doctor said.
03:50No chance.
03:50Even if the surgery works, she'll need years to recover.
03:53Owen was quiet for a moment.
03:56Then there's no point treating her.
03:58I could barely believe my ears.
04:01Dad went on.
04:03We brought Evelyn home because her talent could win us the Blake family's investment.
04:08She's worthless now.
04:11Put Chloe in the competition instead.
04:13Once Chloe takes the lead spot, Adrian marries her, and the investment is still ours.
04:19So Chloe hadn't lied to me.
04:23All these years, Dad calling me sensible, my brother sitting with me while I practiced none of it, was love.
04:32They only loved what I could trade them.
04:35I pushed the door open and walked in.
04:38Dad's face changed.
04:44So I'm just a tool you raised for a marriage deal?
04:47Why are you out of bed?
04:51Answer me!
04:53Owen stepped in front of me.
05:02Don't lose it in here.
05:03Right now, keeping the family's spot in the competition is what matters.
05:07My hands are destroyed, and all you care about is the competition?
05:12Dad looked at me cold.
05:14Chloe was right.
05:15Ever since you lost the piano,
05:17you've become bitter and impossible.
05:22A commotion broke out in the hall.
05:28Chloe walked in, wearing a white wedding gown.
05:31The gown my mother designed by hand before she died for me.
05:35She was on Adrien's arm.
05:38She held up her ring finger to show me the ring.
05:43Forgot to tell you,
05:45Adrien and I got married last night.
05:54Take it off!
05:55My mother left that to me!
05:57Chloe suddenly caught my hand and threw herself backward.
06:00Her wrist hit the wall and started to bleed.
06:11Evelyn, are you insane?
06:15She said she can't play anymore, and she'll never let me compete.
06:18She just tried to ruin my hand.
06:26You ruined yourself, and now you want to drag Chloe down too?
06:31She threw herself at the wall!
06:34Enough!
06:36Chloe is your sister.
06:38There's no way she'd hire someone to hurt you,
06:40and no way she'd risk her own hands.
06:42Adrien looked at me like I was garbage.
06:44Apologize to her.
06:46Apologize to the person who destroyed my life?
06:51On your knees!
07:03Victoria Monroe.
07:04The richest woman in New York.
07:06A recluse who ran her group through executives.
07:08No one outside knew she was the real chair behind the Monroe Group.
07:12She was also the foster mother.
07:14Who once raised me.
07:15Until the Sterlings framed her as a con artist.
07:22She saw my bandaged hands.
07:24Her eyes went red instantly.
07:36Who did this?
07:40Dad stepped forward fast.
07:41Ma'am, this is a family matter.
07:43Victoria raised her hand and knocked him to the floor with one slap.
07:49I'm Evelyn's mother.
07:51From today, she has nothing to do with the Sterling family.
07:56Victoria brought me to the New York Private Medical Center.
07:59Evelyn, Mom got here too late.
08:02I couldn't look at her.
08:04I'm the one who hurt you.
08:05Years ago, the Sterlings found me, showed me a faked paternity report and claimed Victoria had only adopted me to
08:11use my talent.
08:13I believed them.
08:15I pushed away the one person who truly loved me.
08:18Victoria held my bandaged hands.
08:21You were just tricked by them.
08:23Now let Mom give you your future back.
08:25The door opened and an international hand surgery team walked in.
08:29Dr. Benjamin Bennett pulled off his mask.
08:31Your finger bones are shattered and the nerves are badly damaged.
08:33But it's not hopeless.
08:34In a month, can I play?
08:36He frowned.
08:37In theory, no.
08:38I'm only asking, can I or can't I?
08:41Bennett glanced at Victoria.
08:43I can rebuild the nerves, but the rehab will be brutal.
08:45Every key you press could feel like breaking a finger all over again.
08:48Then let it hurt.
08:49Three days after surgery, I started trying to bend my fingers.
08:52One motion.
08:52I did it 500 times.
08:54On day 10, I finally pressed my first key.
08:56Blood seeped from the wound and stained the white key red.
08:59Victoria tried to stop me.
09:01I shook my head.
09:04They want to see me fall.
09:06So I have to win.
09:07Right in front of them.
09:13On audition day, Chloe sat at center stage and played the final note.
09:18The host announced,
09:20Chloe Sterlin, 9.
09:22She looked out at the crowd, smug.
09:24Just as the judges were about to announce the result,
09:27the hall doors swung open.
09:29I walked into everyone's view in a black gown.
09:41Evelyn?
09:42Dad was the first on his feet.
09:44Who let you come here?
09:48I'm a registered contestant.
09:51Adrian stared at my hands.
09:55Don't make a scene.
09:56You can't even hold a fork.
09:58The audience started murmuring.
10:01Weren't her hands smashed?
10:04Getting up there will just make the Sterlings a joke.
10:07Chloe walked up to me, faking concern.
10:10Sis, I know you can't accept reality.
10:13But if you lose control here, all of New York will see it.
10:17You're scared of me playing?
10:19I'm just scared you'll humiliate yourself in public.
10:24She turned to the judges.
10:26Since my sister insists, I'll give her a chance.
10:29Let's compete fairly.
10:31There was certainty in her eyes.
10:33She believed I wouldn't last past her the first bar.
10:36I sat down at the piano
10:39and set my hands on the keys.
10:42The first note tore pain from my fingertips down into the bone.
10:50By the second bar, my wounds split open.
10:54Blood dropped onto the keys.
10:57Adrian scoffed.
10:59She won't make it a minute.
11:00But I didn't stop.
11:01I rewrote every fingering,
11:03using my wrist and the few fingers that still work
11:05to get through the false passages.
11:09The hall slowly went silent.
11:11When the last chord landed,
11:13all ten judges rose to their feet.
11:16Head judge Alexander Shaw picked up his scorecard.
11:21Evelyn Sterling, ten.
11:25The second judge raised his card.
11:29Ten.
11:31Ten scorecards lit up one after another.
11:36A perfect score across the board.
11:40Chloe went white.
11:49I saw it with my own eyes.
11:57Chloe charged onto the stage.
12:00A month ago, her hands were smashed to pieces.
12:02How could she play a whole piece?
12:07I looked at her.
12:09Nothing in this world is impossible.
12:11Unless you use banned stimulants!
12:13Her words dropped the whole hall into silence.
12:16Dr. Rogers walked on tie, carrying a medical case.
12:19He was the Sterling's private doctor.
12:22The first person to treat me after I was hurt.
12:24Chloe pulled out a medication record.
12:27Dr. Bennett said himself, you'd need at least three years to recover.
12:32But Dr. Rogers' records show you've been taking nerve stimulants the whole time.
12:36Adrienne jumped in.
12:37For the lead spot, she threw away the family's honor.
12:39Dad looked at me, disappointed.
12:42Evelyn, how did you become this?
12:44The room erupted.
12:46People whispered and pointed at me.
12:47Someone who played on banned drugs has no right to win!
12:51I held out my hand.
12:54Being given them isn't the same as taking them.
12:57I turned to the event's medical officer.
13:00Test me.
13:01Right here.
13:04If there are banned drugs in my blood, the reagent turns blue instantly.
13:09The needle went into my fingertip.
13:13Three seconds.
13:14Ten.
13:15Thirty.
13:16The reagent stayed clear.
13:18Chloe stepped back.
13:20Impossible!
13:21I picked up the record she'd just handed in.
13:23These drugs are banned, yes.
13:25But I never took them.
13:27I looked at Dr. Rogers, who disguised them as recovery meds and gave them to me.
13:34I signaled the staff to play the security footage on the big screen at center stage.
13:39On screen, Chloe handed the pill bottle to the doctor herself.
13:42Even if her hands recover, I'll destroy her nerves so she can never touch a piano.
13:48The private doctor finally cracked under the pressure and talked.
13:52It was Miss Chloe.
13:54She had me swap the drugs.
13:56She said one pill would get Evelyn banned for life.
13:59The hall broke into an uproar.
14:01Chloe shook her head.
14:02He's lying!
14:06Master Shaw's face went grim.
14:09Chloe Sterling, for maliciously harming a competitor and faking drug test evidence, is banned for life and removed from the
14:18Crown Symphony Orchestra.
14:20This year's lead piano silhouist, Evelyn!
14:26The host announced again.
14:29The applause drowned out.
14:31Chloe's crying.
14:35But Dad rushed to the front of the stage.
14:37Do you have to push your sister into a corner?
14:41She's the one who framed me.
14:43She just made a mistake!
14:44You already won!
14:45Why can't you let her go?
14:47I finally understood.
14:49No matter how clear the evidence, he'd always choose Chloe.
14:52The moment you all decided to give up on me, I stopped being Sterling.
14:56Fine!
14:57I'm officially cutting you off!
14:59Dad pointed at the door.
15:01So, gladly, I took the family crest off my chest and threw it at his feet.
15:06Right after I left the hall, Dad's phone rang.
15:10It was an automated call regarding your overdue account.
15:13The bank was calling to tell him every Sterling Group loan had been terminated.
15:19Within a day, Sterling Group stock crashed 40%.
15:23The Blake family's concert houses got hit with a tax investigation, and every show was suspended.
15:29Adrian's father issued an ultimatum.
15:33Make Evelyn give up the lead spot, or the partnership between our family's fence is off!
15:42The whole Sterling family barged into my place and slammed the papers on the table.
15:49Dad ordered...
15:50Sign the withdrawal statement!
15:52Give the spot back to Chloe!
15:57Your bankruptcy has nothing to do with me.
16:00Owen grabbed me, furious.
16:01Dad raised you all these years!
16:05I pushed him off.
16:09He raised a pianist who could make him money.
16:12That girl is dead now.
16:13Dad raised his hand to hit me.
16:16A bodyguard caught his wrist.
16:18You let an outsider touch me!
16:19You're the only outsider here.
16:23We're not family anymore.
16:27After they were thrown out, Dad called a press conference on the spot.
16:31In front of everyone, he claimed I'd sold my body and bribed a doctor to get the lead spot.
16:36And that I was being kept by some older rich man.
16:39A reporter asked...
16:41Do you have proof?
16:43Dad pointed at a photo of the luxury car I wrecked.
16:46A broke student, thrown out by her family!
16:50How could she afford Dr. Bennett?
16:52The doors of the press conference swung open.
16:55Marcus, chief assistant of the Monroe Group, walked in.
16:58On behalf of the Monroe Group, I'm announcing a full acquisition of Sterling Music Group.
17:03As of this moment, Mr. Sterling, you're bankrupt.
17:08Dad was pushed out of the company.
17:11Adrian's family shut down all their concert halls.
17:14They didn't reflect on any of it.
17:17Instead, they decided I'd offended the Monroe Group's mysterious ear.
17:22Chloe proposed...
17:23Bring Evelyn to apologize.
17:25Once the air calms down, we can bounce back.
17:28The Monroe Group was holding an Ayers gala at the Kingsley Hotel.
17:32They called and ordered me to attend.
17:34Evelyn, you angered the wrong person.
17:36Tonight, you kneel to the air with us.
17:39I looked at the gown in the mirror.
17:41Fine.
17:42I'll wait for you at the hotel.
17:46At the gala entrance, I'd barely stepped out of the car when Dad rushed over.
17:51How dare you dress like this!
17:54Chloe glared at my diamond necklace, jealous.
17:56The real air is about to arrive.
17:58Dressing richer than her?
18:00Are you trying to get us killed?
18:01She reached out to yank at my gown.
18:04The bodyguard, Marcus, blocked her at once.
18:06Chloe scoffed.
18:07You hired someone to play bodyguard?
18:14The lights in the hall went dark.
18:16The host's voice rang out.
18:17Please welcome the Monroe Group's sole heir, Miss Evelyn!
18:24The spotlight landed on me.
18:29The color drained from Chloe's face.
18:31Impossible!
18:32She's just an orphan!
18:33They threw out!
18:34Marcus displayed the group's black card in the equity documents.
18:37To doubt Miss Evelyn is to declare war on the entire Monroe Group.
18:41Dad still refused to believe it.
18:43She must have slept with you to get you to lie for her!
18:46A man walked out of the crowd and dropped Adrian with one punch.
18:51Julian Launt, heir to the largest financial group in Europe.
18:55He took off his jacket and draped it over my shoulders.
19:01Touch her again and I'll break your arm.
19:03Adrian recognized him.
19:05Why are you protecting Ellen?
19:07Julian took my hand.
19:08Because she's my fiancé.
19:11Adrian struggled to his feet.
19:15She's just a cripple.
19:16And her family already throw her away!
19:19Julian looked at my hands, still healing.
19:22Even if she had nothing, I'd still marry her.
19:24The one who isn't good enough for her.
19:26That's me.
19:28Adrian flew into a rage.
19:29Her perfect score was probably slept 4-2!
19:34Master Shao's voice came from behind.
19:37Are you questioning me and ten international judges?
19:43Master Shao publicly confirmed my score was the unanimous decision of every judge.
19:47Chloe kept shouting.
19:48Her hands can't have recovered!
19:50She bought off the doctors and the judges!
19:52I looked at Marcus.
19:54Play the video.
19:57An interrogation tape of the kidnappers came up on the screen.
20:00A young woman paid us to destroy Miss Evelyn's hands.
20:03She said once Evelyn was useless, she could take her place and get Adrian to marry her.
20:11Chloe spun to run.
20:13But two kidnappers were already being brought into the hall.
20:16They pointed at her together.
20:17That's her!
20:18That's Chloe!
20:19She grabbed Adrian.
20:20You said you'd protect me forever!
20:22Adrian shook her off at once.
20:25She forced me into it!
20:27Hiring them was all her idea!
20:29I just went along!
20:30Chloe stared at him, in disbelief.
20:32You moved the money, contacted the kidnappers, told the doctor to stop treatment!
20:37And now you say it had nothing to do with you?
20:39The two of them turned on each other in front of everyone.
20:43Even if Chloe made a mistake, you shouldn't destroy her in front of all these people.
20:47But Dad still tried to protect the family name.
20:49I looked at him.
20:50The ones who sent me to hell first were you.
20:53The hall doors opened again.
20:55Victoria came to my side and announced to all the press,
20:58Evelyn is no one's kept mistress.
21:00She is my daughter and the sole heir to the Monroe group.
21:06But the paternity report proved she's my daughter!
21:09Dad staggered back.
21:10Victoria threw the investigation file down in front of him.
21:14You faked the report, stole her from me, and used her talent to make money for the family.
21:19She turned to me, her eyes full of guilt.
21:22From today, everything the Monroe group has belongs to Evelyn.
21:27Julian had his lawyer hand over documents too.
21:31Every share in my name will be shared with her after we marry.
21:35Adrian threw himself down in front of me.
21:37Evelyn, you're the one I've always loved!
21:39Chloe just tricked me!
21:42Before you touch her with those hands, think about what you did to her.
21:45Julian stepped on his hand.
21:47Adrian screamed and begged.
21:49I crouched down and looked at him.
21:52When you broke my hands, did you give me a chance?
22:09I was about to answer when Chloe, in the transport van, suddenly lifted her head through the window.
22:21She moathed at me, silent.
22:23I'll be back.
22:27Six months later, I officially returned to the concert hall.
22:32But a young pianist named Mia fell down the stairs before rehearsal and badly injured her right hand.
22:39The first thing she did when she woke was accuse me.
22:42Evelyn pushed me!
22:44The security footage was brought in fast.
22:47In the video, the woman doing the pushing did have my face.
22:51Reporters swarmed me.
22:54Did you ruin Mia's hand on purpose because you feared she'd threaten your lead spot?
22:59The person in that footage isn't me.
23:01Chloe was still in prison.
23:02Adrian wasn't free either.
23:04So whose face was it?
23:05Identical to my eye.
23:06Julian provided my alibi.
23:08I'd been trying on wedding gowns that day.
23:10The storm wasn't over when the Monroe group brought more news.
23:13Someone had used my private seal to move a hundred million dollars out.
23:16Then the big screen showed photos of me splurging at a nightclub.
23:20Wrapped around male models, the crowd started shouting.
23:22Get out of the music world!
23:24In the chaos, a woman in a hat slipped out the back door.
23:28She looked back at me once.
23:31That face was exactly like mine.
23:36Someone copied my face.
23:39Julian immediately pulled the prison records and found that Chloe had been sent to a hospital for illness a month
23:44earlier and escaped on the way.
23:47Meanwhile, Chloe had used my face and a cloned keycard to get into the Monroe group and deleted the footage
23:53of herself leaving.
23:54Victoria met her in the office and quickly noticed something off.
23:58Chloe kept using her left hand and she touched the mango on the plate.
24:02But I'm right-handed and I'm severely allergic to mango.
24:06You're not Evelyn.
24:08Chloe locked the door from the inside.
24:10Since you figured it out, you can't stay alive.
24:14She took Victoria's private seal, stabbed her with a letter opener that had my fingerprints on it,
24:20then escaped through the vault's maintenance passage.
24:23Before she went down, Mom sent me an emergency location ping.
24:27By the time I reached the office, she was already lying in a pool of blood.
24:33Mom!
24:35I dropped to my knees and pressed on the wound.
24:38Victoria managed to grab me.
24:39It was Chloe.
24:41Security broke through the door.
24:43All they saw was me kneeling beside my mother, hands covered in blood, my fingerprints all over the weapon.
24:50They raised their guns at me.
24:52Miss Evelyn, don't move!
24:54The footage shows only one person entered this office.
24:58You.
25:00Then I finally understood Chloe's plan.
25:03She wasn't only going to commit crimes with my face.
25:06She was going to send me back to prison in her place.
25:10The board stripped me of my heir status.
25:13The police listed me as a murder suspect.
25:15But Marcus stood in front of me.
25:17Before the chair mammon fell unconscious, she told me the killer was Chloe.
25:21Julian reviewed the footage.
25:23The killer held the knife in her left hand.
25:25Chloe is left-handed.
25:27I finally saw a way out.
25:28Then my phone got a secretly filmed video.
25:31Chloe was standing next to Julian's car.
25:357 o'clock tonight.
25:36Come to the warehouse outside the city.
25:38Alone.
25:39Or the next person in a hospital bed is Julian.
25:42Julian wanted me to stay at the hospital while he handled everything.
25:45But I'd already let him take too many risks for me.
25:48I ditched the bodyguards and went to the warehouse alone.
25:51The rusted door shut behind me.
25:53Chloe stepped out of the dark.
25:55Wearing my clothes.
25:56Wearing my face.
25:57Remember this place?
25:59It all started when your hands were destroyed.
26:01It ends here too.
26:03Behind her, my father, Owen, and a now-bailed Adrian slowly appeared.
26:06They chose her side.
26:08Again.
26:10You all know she's Chloe!
26:13Dad avoided my eyes.
26:16She promised to give us half the Monroe Group shares after the wedding.
26:20Chloe touched her own face.
26:2133 surgeries.
26:23They shattered my bones and pieced them back together.
26:26Now I look more like Evelyn than you do.
26:28She would take my company, my fiancé, and even care for Victoria under my name.
26:33A fake is always a fake!
26:37She raised her hand and cut my face.
26:40Once you're dead, I'll be the only real one.
26:43Engines roared outside the warehouse.
26:45Julian rushed in with his people.
26:47In the chaos, both identical faces were pulled away at once.
26:50Dad's men grabbed me again.
26:52Chloe deliberately cut a wound into her own arm and collapsed into Julian's arms.
26:56Julian, I'm so scared!
26:58He lifted her up.
27:00Through a second-floor window, I watched them leave.
27:03Chloe looked back and gave me a victorious smile.
27:07She'd made it into my home.
27:11Chloe had memorized every memory between me and Julian.
27:15She knew where we first met.
27:17She knew every word he'd said.
27:19But when she picked up a water glass, she reached with her left hand out of habit.
27:24Julian asked,
27:24Where's our engagement ring?
27:26I was afraid of dirtying it while my wound was bandaged, so I put it in my bag.
27:31What color were you wearing the first time we met?
27:34White.
27:35You said I looked like a princess.
27:37Julian didn't ask anything more.
27:42Because that day, I was wearing a blue performance dress.
27:45He'd said I looked like a queen walking out of a storm.
27:48After Chloe left, Julian said to Marcus,
27:52She's not Evelyn.
27:53Marcus was stunned.
27:55If you knew she was fake, why not have the police arrest her?
27:58The real Evelyn is still in their hands.
28:01Exposing the fake now would only get her killed.
28:04Julian deliberately froze every account in my name and announced the wedding was being moved up.
28:08Chloe excitedly called my father.
28:10In three days, I'll be Julian's wife!
28:14Julian stood outside the door and heard the whole conversation.
28:18He told his lawyer,
28:19Prepare for the wedding.
28:23I'll make every one of these criminals walk in on their own.
28:29On the wedding day, Chloe wore my gown and brought the still unconscious Victoria to the church.
28:34Dad and the others hid me in a secret room behind the lounge.
28:37Chloe said through the iron door,
28:39I want you to watch me marry Julian.
28:41Watch me become the true master of the Monroe Group.
28:46The priest began the vows.
28:49Miss Evelyn, do you take Mr. Julian to be your husband?
28:53Chloe smiled.
28:55I do.
28:56Mr. Julian, do you take Miss Evelyn to be your wife?
28:59The church went quiet.
29:01Julian looked at her.
29:04I do not.
29:06The guests gasped.
29:08The smile froze on Chloe's face.
29:10This is my wedding.
29:14But my wife can only be Evelyn.
29:20Julian lifted her left hand.
29:23And you're not her.
29:26The church's side door burst open.
29:29Marcus and his people rescued me.
29:31When two identical women appeared at once,
29:34everyone froze.
29:37The police raised their weapons.
29:39Which one is the real Evelyn?
29:44She had surgery to look like me!
29:47Chloe pointed at me and screamed.
29:48She's jealous I'm marrying Julian!
29:52She's the real Chloe.
29:54She was vicious even as a child!
29:57Dad backed her up instantly.
29:59The chief demanded we prove our identities.
30:01My left hand had nerve repair surgery,
30:04leaving a scar on the palm.
30:05But Chloe had copied the exact same scar.
30:12Julian proposed a mango allergy test.
30:15After Chloe ate the mango,
30:17she broke out in the same rash.
30:19She'd already injected herself with the allergen.
30:21The chief frowned.
30:23The evidence can't prove either side.
30:25Both of you have to be investigated.
30:27Chloe smiled, smug.
30:29But Julian said,
30:30A face can be copied.
30:32Memories can be memorized.
30:35A scar can be faked.
30:38But a surgery can't just disappear.
30:41A European doctor was brought into the church.
30:43He produced the complete medical file.
30:46Chloe Steehling underwit 33 cosmetic surgeries at my clinic,
30:52including full facial bone reconstruction.
30:57A scanner moved near Chloe's jaw and set off an alarm.
31:02The doctor pointed at the scan.
31:04There's a titanium implant right here.
31:07The chief took out handcuffs.
31:10Chloe, you're under arrest for identity fraud,
31:14kidnapping,
31:14and attempted murder.
31:17Just as the police moved to cuff Chloe,
31:20Adrian slammed into an officer
31:22and kicked a gun hidden under the prude to her feet.
31:25Chloe grabbed it and locked an arm around my neck.
31:29Everybody back!
31:31The church's big screen lit up.
31:34Victoria was tied to a wheelchair in a basement,
31:36a timed bomb beside her with only 10 minutes left.
31:43I had her taken out of the recovery world a long time ago.
31:48Chloe pressed the gun to my head.
31:50Get me a helicopter!
31:52Fueled up!
31:52Or she and Evelyn die together!
31:55Julian signaled the police to fall back,
31:57while quietly telling Marcus to find the basement entrance.
32:01I stared at Chloe and provoked her on purpose.
32:04You took my face,
32:05stole my identity,
32:06and in the end you still have nothing.
32:10Shut up!
32:11She lost control.
32:13The muzzle drifted off me slightly.
32:15In the basement,
32:16Victoria had woken.
32:18Fighting the pain,
32:19she worked one hand free
32:20and pulled the bomb's external power supply.
32:25The countdown stopped at three seconds.
32:28Now!
32:29The instant Julian said it,
32:31I threw myself into Chloe's arm.
32:34A shot went off.
32:36The bullet grazed my shoulder.
32:39The police tackled her fast.
32:42At the same time,
32:43Marcus and his team stormed the basement
32:45and saved Victoria.
32:47Chloe was capped,
32:49still thrashing wildly.
32:51Without Evelyn,
32:52I'd have had it all a long time ago!
32:55I held my bleeding shoulder
32:57and looked at her.
32:58The one who destroyed you was never me.
33:01It was your greed,
33:02the kind you could never fill.
33:05The wound missed anything vital.
33:09Adrian didn't manage to escape.
33:12The police found his fingerprints under the prue,
33:14and footage of him bringing the gun into the church ahead of time.
33:18He knelt in front of me.
33:19Evelyn!
33:20Chloe forced me!
33:21Chloe let out a harsh laugh.
33:23And who contacted the kidnappers and destroyed her hands?
33:27Who bought off Rogers and made the doctor stop treatment?
33:30Then the police released new financial records.
33:33Adrian wasn't just an accomplice.
33:34He was the one who first drew up the plan to hire the killers.
33:37Dad and Owen were also arrested for the kidnapping,
33:40giving false testimony,
33:42and corporate crimes.
33:43Dad grabbed the hem of my dress.
33:45I'm your father!
33:46Beg Victoria for me!
33:48I looked down at him.
33:49You gave me life,
33:50but you never gave me love.
33:52What you can't bear to lose
33:53isn't me.
33:54It's the fortune I could trade for you.
33:56The police dragged him away.
33:58Chloe still wouldn't admit defeat.
33:59Without you,
34:00I'd be the lead pianist,
34:01the Monroe heir,
34:02and Julian's wife!
34:04I walked up to her.
34:05You could have been a great pianist.
34:06Instead, you spent all your time
34:08stealing other people's lives.
34:09When Chloe was loaded into the police car,
34:11not one of them,
34:12not Dad,
34:13not Owen,
34:13not Adrian looked at her again,
34:14and the hands they'd sworn would never play again
34:17were held tight in Julian's.
34:18This time,
34:19it was really over.
34:22A few months later,
34:24I stood on the Crown Concert Hall stage again.
34:26My hands hadn't fully recovered.
34:29Some of the hardest passages,
34:30I may never play the way I once did.
34:33Master Shaw asked me,
34:34Any regrets?
34:35I shook my head.
34:36I used to play to make my family proud.
34:38Now I play only for myself.
34:41The stage lights came up.
34:42In the seats sat Victoria,
34:43Julian,
34:44and many young musicians
34:45who'd been hurt in accidents
34:46and lost their chance to play.
34:48I'd founded a musician's recovery foundation
34:49to give them surgery,
34:50treatment,
34:51and a way back to the stage.
34:52I no longer needed a perfect pair of hands
34:55to prove I deserved to be loved.
34:58As the last note fell,
35:01the whole audience rose to applaud.
35:05I thought about getting a new one.
35:07Backstage,
35:08Julian took out a repaired ring.
35:09It was the ring Adrian had once thrown away
35:11and Chloe had crushed under feet.
35:13Then I realized,
35:14scars don't mean it's lost its value.
35:17Julian set the ring in my palm.
35:19This time,
35:20there's no family,
35:20no shares,
35:21no interests.
35:22Just me.
35:23Evelyn,
35:24will you marry me?
35:25He knelt on one knee.
35:27I held out my scarred hand.
35:28I will.
35:31The wedding wasn't at a luxury hotel.
35:33It was at the Crown Concert Hall,
35:35where we first met.
35:36Victoria placed the veil over me
35:38with her own hands.
35:39This time,
35:40no one can take what's yours.
35:43Because now I know how to protect myself.
35:45The music began.
35:47I walked through the seats,
35:49step by step,
35:50toward Julian.
35:51Once,
35:52this hall witnessed my ambition,
35:54my pain,
35:55and my rebirth.
35:56Now it would witness my happiness.
35:58The priest looked at Julian.
36:03For richer or poorer,
36:05in sickness and in health,
36:06do you take her to love,
36:07honor,
36:08and stay by her side
36:09for the rest of your life?
36:10Julian held both my hands.
36:14I do.
36:15The priest turned to me.
36:17Evelyn,
36:18do you take Julian
36:19to be your husband?
36:20I didn't hesitate.
36:24I do.
36:26Julian slid the ring
36:27onto my finger.
36:29From the first time
36:30I heard you play,
36:30my heart was yours.
36:32I smiled and reminded him.
36:35But the first time I met you,
36:36I played three wrong notes.
36:42It was still the most beautiful music
36:44I've ever heard.
36:46Applause filled the hall.
36:52I once thought the night
36:53my hands were destroyed
36:54was the end of my life.
36:56Later I understood
36:57it was only a beginning.
36:59I lost the stage,
37:00my family,
37:01and love.
37:02I was pushed into the abyss
37:04by the people I trusted most.
37:07But they couldn't take my music.
37:10And they couldn't take my right
37:11to choose my life again.
37:14This time I'm no one's tool,
37:16stand-in,
37:17or bargaining book.
37:22I'm Evelyn.
37:24And my life at last
37:25belongs only to me.
37:27So far,
37:30So far,
