00:02It was the darkest day of my life.
00:05Someone leaked an intimate video from my phone
00:07and I became the laughing stock of the entire school.
00:12Oh Evelyn, you always seem so above it all
00:15but in private you're downright slutty.
00:20I don't want someone else's hand-me-down.
00:22We're done.
00:25The scandal cost me my overseas scholarship
00:28and my boyfriend, Mike.
00:30My stepsister, Sophia, ended up with both.
00:32I had lost everything.
00:34I had no reason to live.
00:38Just as I was about to jump off the roof,
00:41a hand grabbed me from behind.
00:45Evelyn, I'll protect you.
00:47No one will ever hurt you again.
00:52Victoria Ashford was my only friend.
00:54She came from old money
00:55and her family was deeply influential.
00:57It took her just three days
00:59to erase every online scandal about me.
01:03For three years,
01:04I was her secretary in the office
01:06and her secret lover behind closed doors.
01:09She said her conservative family
01:10wouldn't allow our relationship to be public
01:12and I believed her.
01:15Then one afternoon,
01:17I walked up to her office door
01:18with a proposal titled Reset Your Life.
01:21That's when I overheard Victoria
01:22and her mother talking.
01:24Sophia's coming back next week.
01:26Are you really making her chief designer?
01:29Chief designer had always been what I wanted.
01:31but Victoria said she couldn't find
01:33a better secretary than me.
01:36Yes.
01:39What about Evelyn?
01:41She's been with you for three years.
01:43You think we don't know?
01:44We just never objected.
01:45They never objected?
01:47My eyes widened in shock,
01:49my fingers tightening
01:50until the document bent in my hands.
01:52Mom, you know Sophia is the one I've always loved.
01:54I clamped a hand over my mouth
01:57to keep from making a sound.
01:58Tears filled my eyes
02:00as my body shook involuntarily.
02:02I kept Evelyn on as my secretary.
02:04As long as she stays out of design,
02:07Sophia has no competition.
02:09Her career will go smoothly.
02:11Victoria's every word cut like a knife.
02:13I pressed my palm against the wall,
02:15gasping as my nails nearly broke.
02:18I got Evelyn's designs revised,
02:20credited them to Sophia,
02:21and submitted them to the judging panel.
02:23If everything works out,
02:25Sophia will achieve her dream
02:26and take home the industry's top award.
02:28Sweetheart, you're being cruel to Evelyn.
02:30You'll regret it.
02:31I heard Victoria let out a quiet, cold laugh.
02:34She was nothing more than a tool
02:36to pave the way for Sophia.
02:38I could never love her,
02:39and I regret nothing.
02:40I stood outside the door,
02:41feeling the whole world spin.
02:45Three years ago,
02:46she grabbed my hand on the rooftop.
02:48I thought she'd saved me,
02:49but now I knew she was just
02:51clearing the path for another woman.
03:00I bit my lip,
03:01terrified that any sound would expose me.
03:04I stumbled away in a panic,
03:05like a failure who couldn't bear to be seen.
03:09Each word I'd just heard
03:11still felt like a nail boring into my bones.
03:15The pain stole my breath,
03:17and I couldn't stop crying.
03:29Someone's here.
03:29Get out.
03:30She'd push me away without hesitation.
03:43No pictures.
03:44You know we can't go public.
03:46She wouldn't even take a photo with me.
03:53A lot of press knew
03:55I was at that restaurant tonight.
03:56This could make people suspect
03:58we're together.
03:59Sometimes I couldn't help
04:00posting subtle updates,
04:02just our meal,
04:03not even a glimpse of her,
04:04but she would still get angry.
04:06I was upset and bitter,
04:07but I swallowed my pride,
04:09because I understood
04:09the weight she was carrying.
04:11I thought family was the reason
04:13she kept me a secret.
04:14Turns out I was never worth admitting to.
04:16Yet now,
04:17she dared to tell her mother
04:18she loved Sophia.
04:20Any family constraints
04:21were just a lie.
04:22She didn't love me.
04:23I stared at those words
04:24for a long time.
04:26Then I picked up my phone
04:26and dialed the number
04:27on the proposal.
04:30I want to sign up.
04:32Ms. Cross,
04:33are you sure?
04:34This means you'll have to
04:34give up your current identity,
04:36memories,
04:36and all your relationships.
04:38I'm sure.
04:39All right.
04:39Fill out the application form,
04:41photograph it,
04:41and email it to us.
04:43In seven days,
04:43we'll stage an accident for you.
04:45Everyone will believe
04:46you died in it
04:46and they'll start a new life
04:47under a new identity.
04:49Okay.
04:49I filled out the application
04:50and sent it off
04:51without hesitation.
04:53Seven days,
04:53that's also the day
04:54Sophia begins her new role.
04:55I wiped away my tears
04:57and looked at myself
04:58in the mirror.
04:59Perfect timing.
05:00Now that the real one's here,
05:01this pawn can step aside.
05:08Evelyn Cross,
05:09no more crying.
05:10You don't owe anyone anything.
05:12As I was walking down the hall,
05:14a pair of arms
05:15wrapped around my waist
05:17from behind.
05:18What took you so long?
05:19Her voice was low and intimate,
05:21carrying a warmth
05:22I used to melt into.
05:23Back then,
05:23a single hug from her
05:24could keep me light
05:25for an entire day.
05:26But now,
05:27all I felt was her arms
05:28around my waist
05:28cold and suffocating.
05:30Nothing.
05:30I was touching up my makeup.
05:33What do you want for dinner?
05:34I booked that French place
05:35you've been wanting to try.
05:37She lowered her head
05:38and brushed her lips
05:39against my earlope.
05:40My whole body tense,
05:41not from desire,
05:42but because I caught someone
05:44coming down the hall
05:45out of the corner of my eye.
05:46Someone's coming.
05:48Victoria's hand
05:48fell away instinctively.
05:49She stepped back,
05:51smoothed her cuff,
05:51and nodded coolly
05:52to a passing employee,
05:54all tenderness gone.
05:55Look how practiced she is.
05:56For three years,
05:57she's been practicing
05:58pushing me away in public
05:59and I've long since
06:00learned to play along.
06:01I headed into the office.
06:02Victoria followed
06:03and shut the door.
06:05About earlier.
06:06I was done making excuses for her,
06:08so I asked her directly.
06:10Victoria,
06:10when can we go public?
06:11Victoria stiffened,
06:12then forced a bitter smile.
06:14You know how my mother is
06:15and my family's traditions.
06:17Just give me a little more time.
06:19More time.
06:20I've been hearing that
06:21for three years.
06:22It's okay.
06:23I understand.
06:24I understand.
06:25You never meant
06:26to give me any standing.
06:27I was just a stepping stone
06:28for the woman you loved.
06:32Victoria picked papers up
06:33and spotted a
06:34Reset Your Life volunteer form
06:36filled out in my name.
06:38What's this?
06:43Calmly,
06:44I took the paper back
06:45from Victoria
06:46and set the proposal
06:47on the table.
06:48It's a new biotech project
06:49called Reset Your Life.
06:50I think it has great potential.
06:52Victoria nodded vaguely.
06:53If you think it's good,
06:54I'm sure it is.
06:55Victoria skimmed a few pages,
06:57then signed the last.
06:58Just as I expected,
07:00she had not even noticed
07:01my name on the application.
07:02She was already lost
07:04in the thought
07:04of seeing Sophia.
07:06A faint smile
07:07played on her lips
07:08and her fingers
07:09tapped the table
07:10like piano keys.
07:11She only did that
07:12when she was truly happy.
07:16Victoria checked her phone.
07:18I'm afraid
07:19I have to cancel dinner.
07:20I have a reception tonight.
07:22Since neither of us drinks,
07:24I'll take Linda with me.
07:25Victoria cupped my face,
07:26kissed me softly,
07:27and left.
07:28Oh, and print the files
07:30on my desktop
07:30and leave them on my desk.
07:32Of course.
07:33The door shut.
07:34I sat down
07:35at Victoria's computer
07:36and suddenly saw a message
07:37from someone I knew.
07:39My hand froze on the mouse.
07:41Vicki, thanks for the
07:42chief designer role.
07:43And if you hadn't helped me
07:44with that video back then,
07:46I never would have gotten
07:47the scholarship
07:47or mic that easily.
07:49Love you.
07:50About the video?
07:51Could it be?
07:53My fingers shook,
07:55but I settled them
07:56and typed a reply
07:57in Victoria's voice.
07:59You still remember the video?
08:01Three seconds later,
08:03Sophia replied.
08:04Of course.
08:05You had Evelyn's computer hacked
08:06and post her private video
08:07on the campus forum.
08:08You said that once she was ruined,
08:10her scholarship and boyfriend
08:11would both be mine.
08:12Vicki, I was really touched.
08:14I collapsed into the chair.
08:18Slut!
08:18The video's all over campus,
08:20yet she still acts innocent.
08:21I heard her mother
08:22was a homewrecker.
08:23Like mother, like daughter.
08:27We're done.
08:31Those voices,
08:32the ones I had buried
08:33three years ago,
08:34they came flooding back,
08:36swallowing me whole.
08:39I always thought Victoria
08:40was a light
08:41in my darkest days.
08:42She pulled me off
08:44that rooftop,
08:45erased the scandal,
08:46and gave me a place to hide.
08:48But she was the one
08:49who first brought darkness
08:50into my life.
08:57Something in me snapped.
08:58I swept everything
08:59off the desk.
09:00Papers flew everywhere
09:02like snowflakes.
09:03The monitor and keyboard
09:04hit the floor
09:04with a dull head
09:05and the penhiles
09:06had tilted over,
09:07sending pens rolling everywhere.
09:10I was breathing hard,
09:12my eyes burning.
09:13I looked at the mess
09:14around me,
09:15and the pain inside me
09:16seemed to expand
09:17like a black hole.
09:18I wiped away
09:19my last tear.
09:20Victoria Ashford,
09:22you destroyed my past.
09:23You stole my work.
09:24For three whole years,
09:26you trampled on everything
09:27I gave you
09:28and gave it to another woman.
09:29This time,
09:30I'm not looking back.
09:34The reception's over.
09:36Come pick me up.
09:37Back then,
09:38no matter what I was doing,
09:39if I saw a message
09:40from Victoria,
09:41I'd drop everything
09:41and rush to her.
09:42But today,
09:43I stared at her message,
09:44my finger frozen
09:45above the screen.
09:45The screen died.
09:48I don't want to go.
09:49This was the first time
09:51I ignored her request.
09:52Hot water ran down
09:54my shoulders,
09:54as if it could wash
09:55every emotion
09:56down the drain.
09:57The bathroom door
09:57flew open.
09:59Victoria leaned
10:00in the doorway,
10:00tied loose.
10:02Why didn't you
10:03come pick me up?
10:05I waited two hours
10:06for you.
10:10You've never done
10:10that before.
10:11I shut off the shower
10:12and steadied my voice.
10:13I wasn't feeling well
10:15and my phone died.
10:16Victoria studied me,
10:17then touched my forehead.
10:18Her voice softened.
10:19You do look pale.
10:21Have you taken your medicine?
10:22I turned my head away
10:24from her hand.
10:24I'm fine.
10:25I just need some sleep.
10:27As I sat on the bed
10:28drying my hair,
10:29Victoria walked up to me,
10:30her eyes bright
10:31with barely contained excitement.
10:33I forgot to tell you.
10:34Sophia's coming back
10:35and I'll hire her
10:36as chief designer
10:37at a high salary.
10:38She finally told me.
10:39I didn't react.
10:40I just quietly dried my hair.
10:41She's your sister.
10:43Once she starts working here,
10:44you two can look out
10:45for each other.
10:46I lowered the towel
10:47and met her eyes.
10:48Victoria,
10:49if Sophia joins the company,
10:50I'm quitting.
10:51Her voice went cold.
10:53What did you say?
10:55I said if she comes,
10:56I'm leaving.
10:57Evelyn,
10:58don't make this hard for me.
10:59She's the best candidate
11:00for chief designer.
11:01I finally laughed.
11:02It was quiet,
11:03but laced with sarcasm.
11:04Chief designer?
11:06Victoria,
11:07do you remember?
11:08Sophia didn't even make it
11:09past the first round
11:10of that design competition.
11:12I was the champion.
11:14Victoria's pupils
11:14narrowed slightly.
11:15I stood up to face her.
11:16What qualifies her
11:18to be chief designer?
11:19If you need a designer,
11:21why can't it be me?
11:22Or do you think
11:23being your secretary
11:24is all I'm good for?
11:29Evelyn,
11:29do you really have to do this?
11:31She studied me,
11:32trying to read my thoughts,
11:33but she couldn't.
11:34I'm kidding.
11:35Look how scared you are.
11:38What?
11:39Sophia's my sister.
11:40Of course I don't mind
11:41her working here.
11:42Victoria sighed
11:43and shook her head.
11:43Don't joke about that again.
11:45I nodded, smiling.
11:46Okay.
11:46I won't.
11:47Of course I won't.
11:48I'll be gone in seven days.
11:50None of this will have
11:50anything to do with me anymore.
11:54I'd already cleaned up the office
11:55so Victoria didn't notice a thing.
11:57Over the next few days,
11:59Victoria became much more considerate.
12:07I knew what she was making up for.
12:10Don't work so hard.
12:12Get some rest.
12:13But I knew she was doing all this
12:14to pave the way for Sophia.
12:16She didn't understand Sophia or me.
12:19Sophia was the one
12:20who always picked fights.
12:21Just when I thought
12:22my remaining days here
12:23might be peaceful,
12:24the storm came early.
12:25Vicky, surprise.
12:26I'm back early
12:27and I'm right outside your house.
12:29Open the door.
12:29The night before Sophia
12:30started her new job,
12:32she messaged Victoria.
12:33Victoria snatched up the phone.
12:35Shock turned to panic,
12:36then to a joy
12:37I had never seen in her.
12:38She's back already?
12:39Victoria leaped out of bed barefoot
12:41without even looking at me.
12:44I watched her fumble
12:45into her coat and rush out,
12:47her footsteps fading in the hall,
12:49faster and faster.
12:53Sophia burst in,
12:55threw herself into Victoria's arms
12:57and let her suitcase fall.
12:59Sophia squealed in delight.
13:01Vicky, I missed you so much.
13:04Flustered,
13:05Victoria hugged her back
13:07and languered before letting go.
13:08I'd only ever seen her be decisive
13:10and forceful in business.
13:12This cautious side of her
13:13felt unfamiliar.
13:15Why are you back early?
13:16Didn't you go home?
13:17Sophia's voice turned sweet
13:19and coaxing.
13:20I wanted to surprise you.
13:22I haven't told my family yet.
13:24It okay if I stay here tonight?
13:26Of course.
13:29Victoria quietly helped Sophia
13:31with her suitcase
13:32and took off her coat.
13:35She had always take it for granted
13:37that I'd do those things for her.
13:39Sophia sank onto the sofa.
13:43Your career is really taking off.
13:45I'm really glad to be joining your company.
13:47I heard Evelyn is your secretary now?
13:50Sophia smirked,
13:51missing the shift in Victoria's face.
13:54After that huge scandal,
13:55you're probably the only person
13:57who would take her in.
13:58Everyone saw her make a fool of herself,
14:00right?
14:00God,
14:00if I had humiliated myself like that,
14:02I would have-
14:02Sophia,
14:03don't.
14:03Victoria cut in.
14:05But just then,
14:06I came downstairs,
14:08smiling,
14:09and said,
14:10what would you do?
14:11Sophia froze at the sight of me,
14:13then sprang up.
14:14Evelyn?
14:15It's been a while,
14:16little sister.
14:19Sophia smiled.
14:20It was the expression she'd perfected.
14:22Sweet,
14:23harmless,
14:23and as sticky as honey.
14:25She hurried over,
14:26took my hand warmly,
14:27and gave Victoria a knowing smile.
14:30Vicky?
14:31So you two live together now?
14:34Are you-
14:35Victoria hurriedly tried to explain.
14:37No.
14:38We're just friends.
14:39Don't get the wrong idea.
14:40Friends.
14:41I gave Victoria a bitter smile.
14:43What kind of friends have sex every night?
14:46Victoria couldn't bring herself to look at me.
14:50Maybe hiding our relationship
14:51was never about whether I was worth it.
14:53Maybe she just didn't want Sophia to know.
14:55Come to think of it,
14:56I really should thank Evelyn.
14:58My eyelashes fluttered slightly.
15:01If that scandal hadn't happened,
15:03I never would have gotten Mike
15:05or the scholarship.
15:06When she mentioned Mike,
15:07her tone was breezy,
15:09and she gave me a playful wink.
15:11I already dumped Mike.
15:12If you're still hung up on him,
15:14I can give you his number.
15:15I cut her off.
15:17No need.
15:18I don't touch other people's trash.
15:22Sophia composed herself.
15:24I still have to thank you.
15:26That scholarship helped me realize my dream
15:28of becoming a chief designer.
15:30Evelyn,
15:31after doing secretarial work,
15:33serving coffee and making coffees,
15:35have you forgotten how to be a designer?
15:37What a shame.
15:38If it weren't for that video,
15:39I looked at her and suddenly found it all absurd.
15:42My voice was soft,
15:43but every word was clear.
15:45Sophia,
15:45I haven't touched design in three years,
15:47and I'm still miles ahead of you.
15:49Once I return,
15:50you'll be nothing.
15:51Sophia's smile vanished
15:52as as her face flushed red.
15:54Enough!
15:55Victoria turned to Sophia,
15:56her voice softening.
15:59You must be exhausted after your flight.
16:01Go get some rest.
16:03Sophia gave Victoria a wounded look
16:05and bit her lip.
16:06Fine.
16:16Victoria turned to me.
16:18Evelyn,
16:19Sophia didn't mean anything by it.
16:21Don't take it personally.
16:23She took my hand,
16:24her eyes full of pity,
16:25but I knew it was fake.
16:26Don't talk about going back to design.
16:28You know I can't do without you.
16:30Sophia taunted me and mocked me,
16:32but Victoria heard none of it.
16:34She only heard me saying
16:36I might go back to design.
16:37She feared I really would,
16:39and that I'd end up blocking Sophia's path.
16:41Get some rest.
16:42I'll sleep in the study tonight.
16:44Okay.
16:45Good night.
16:46I went upstairs.
16:49Victoria,
16:50I hope you keep your word
16:51and never regret this.
16:58It's raining again.
17:00Whenever it rains,
17:01my body feels like it's being torn apart.
17:04It was a complication from the surgery.
17:06In college,
17:08Victoria suffered acute kidney failure
17:10and needed a kidney transplant to survive.
17:12She was my only friend back then
17:14and I couldn't let her die.
17:15Without telling her I got tested,
17:17signed the consent form
17:18and gave her one of my kidneys.
17:19Ms. Cross,
17:20are you sure you want to donate a kidney?
17:22It's a major surgery
17:23and will permanently affect your health.
17:25I'm sure.
17:27As long as it saves her.
17:32I never told Victoria about this.
17:35Back then,
17:36I was still confused about my feelings.
17:39I knew she was special to me,
17:41but I was afraid of scaring her away.
17:43I never meant to use it to win her gratitude.
17:46Back then,
17:47whenever the pain got unbearable on rainy days,
17:50Victoria would hold me in her arms.
17:53She'd wrap her arms around me,
17:55rest her chin on my head
17:56and gently pat my back
17:57like soothing a child.
17:59Her warmth seeped through my pajamas
18:01and worked better than any painkiller.
18:04I'm leaving tomorrow.
18:07Just one last time.
18:09I want her to hold me again.
18:15Victoria,
18:17I don't feel well.
18:19Could you come here?
18:20Victoria's expression shifted.
18:22She set down the papers and stood up.
18:25Are you in pain again?
18:26I'll be right there.
18:27Sophia stood in the study doorway.
18:29I had no idea how long she'd been there.
18:31A thin blanket covered her shoulders
18:33as she hugged a pillow,
18:34her eyes gleaming in the dark.
18:36Vicky?
18:38It's thundering outside.
18:39I'm scared.
18:41Could you stay with me for a bit?
18:46Victoria caught her instinctively and swallowed.
18:48Victoria?
18:49Are you still there?
18:51It hurts.
18:52I need you.
18:54Vicky,
18:55don't go.
18:56I'm really scared.
19:00Victoria listened to my pleas over the phone
19:02while the woman she loved begged her to stay.
19:05In the end,
19:06she turned off her phone
19:07and spoke softly to Sophia.
19:10Don't be afraid.
19:12I'm right here.
19:13The call suddenly ended.
19:15She didn't come.
19:24It hurts.
19:26Victoria.
19:28Where are you?
19:31I stared at the door for a long while.
19:34Long enough for the sharp pain to turn dull and heavy.
19:37Long enough for my body to go numb.
19:40Victoria still hasn't shown up.
19:51I don't know what got me back on my feet.
19:54Maybe I needed to know why Victoria hadn't come.
19:58I leaned against the wall and made my way to the study.
20:01Each slow step felt like walking on knives.
20:05Victoria sat on the couch with Sophia curled up in her arms.
20:08Her head resting against Victoria's chest.
20:11Victoria's arm was around Sophia's shoulders
20:14and her hand gently pat her back,
20:16just as she once did for me.
20:18A blanket lay over the couch
20:20and two cups of hot chocolate sat on the coffee table
20:23with the sweet scent of marshmallows in the air.
20:25Vicky, you're so kind.
20:27With you here, I'm not scared.
20:29I smiled faintly,
20:30not the least bit surprised.
20:32Of course it was Sophia.
20:33Was that Evelyn on the phone?
20:35Are you sure it's okay not to go see her?
20:37It's okay.
20:39Victoria spoke gently to Sophia.
20:41Sophia,
20:42you saved my life.
20:44Protecting and caring for you is my life's purpose.
20:47A sudden clap of thunder
20:48kept me from hearing what Victoria said to Sophia at the end.
20:52But I don't care anymore.
20:53I didn't push the door open,
20:55cry,
20:56or make a sound.
20:57I simply turned and left.
21:00Tomorrow,
21:01I'll leave.
21:02I shouldn't have held on to anything.
21:05Victoria stared at the gap under the door,
21:07as if she could sense I'd been there.
21:10I didn't know whether she felt a twinch of pain,
21:13but she still couldn't bring herself to let go of Sophia.
21:18Victoria opened the passenger door,
21:20and Sophia got in,
21:22buckling her seatbelt as if she'd always belong there.
21:26For three years,
21:28that seat had been mine.
21:29Victoria drove,
21:30and I sat beside her.
21:32We commuted to work together and home again.
21:35Those drives were the few times in three years
21:37when I could openly stay by her side.
21:39Now Sophia sat there,
21:41and Victoria didn't think anything was wrong
21:43as she took the wheel.
21:45Evelyn,
21:45why aren't you getting in?
21:50It's fine.
21:51It's my last day anyway.
21:54Everyone,
21:54this is Sophia Cross.
21:56Starting today,
21:57she'll be Ashford Group's chief designer.
21:59The company will hold a welcome party at six tonight.
22:03All staff are expected to attend.
22:08Thank you,
22:09everyone.
22:10I look forward to working with you.
22:13I stood in the back of the crowd,
22:15without applauding.
22:17On my last day,
22:18I carried out my usual secretarial duties.
22:21Sophia suddenly stopped me
22:23and ordered me around in front of everyone.
22:25Hey, Evelyn,
22:26could you get me a coffee?
22:28Black.
22:29No sugar.
22:30She shoved papers into my hands.
22:32Make ten copies of these,
22:33bind them,
22:34and bring them to my office.
22:36I glanced down at the documents,
22:38then looked up
22:39and handed them back
22:40to Sophia.
22:41The coffee machine is in the break room.
22:44The copier in the print room.
22:45I'm the CEO's secretary,
22:48not yours.
22:49Sophia froze.
22:50The employees behind her
22:51began whispering.
22:53Humiliated,
22:54Sophia let out a cold laugh
22:55and raised her voice.
22:56Aren't secretaries supposed to serve people?
22:58My hands are for creating award-winning works,
23:00not for fetching tea
23:01or running errands.
23:02I stepped half a pace closer
23:03and met her gaze.
23:04We were close enough for me
23:05to see the anger in her eyes.
23:07Sophia,
23:07you know exactly where
23:08those award-winning designs came from.
23:10Sophia's eyes widened.
23:12Those designs,
23:12every sketch,
23:13every line,
23:14were mine.
23:14If I pursue this,
23:16you'll have nothing left.
23:17Sophia went pale,
23:18flushed,
23:19then pale again,
23:20clutching the papers
23:21until her knuckles whitened.
23:22Unless you need anything else,
23:24I'll get back to work.
23:25Evelyn,
23:26who do you think you are?
23:35You think you won?
23:37You probably don't know this,
23:39but I've kept this video
23:40for three years.
23:42Tonight's welcome party
23:44will have the whole company there.
23:45I'm going to make everyone
23:47see who you really are.
23:50Just before work ended,
23:52my phone buzzed.
23:54Miss Cross,
23:55your reset is scheduled.
23:57At 8 o'clock tonight,
23:58a black sedan will be waiting
23:59at the intersection
24:00of Central Street
24:01and 7th Avenue.
24:02We'll send you the plate number
24:03at 755.
24:04Get in the car
24:05and we'll handle the rest.
24:078 o'clock tonight,
24:09less than three hours away.
24:11Tonight,
24:13it all ends.
24:15Sophia,
24:16you're so young and promising.
24:18At the party,
24:19some toasted Sophia
24:20while others praised
24:21how young and promising she was
24:23or asked about her relationship
24:24with Victoria.
24:26Victoria will be late
24:27because she's in a business meeting.
24:29I don't know if I'll get to see her
24:31one time before I leave.
24:33Sophia clapped,
24:34her voice bright and sweet.
24:36Everyone,
24:38thank you all
24:39for coming to my welcome party.
24:41I'd like to take this chance
24:42to present my award-winning work.
24:44Feel free to share your thoughts.
24:50Wow, the colors are incredible.
24:52She's a genius.
24:52The room erupted in praise
24:54for her work.
24:55Sophia smiled
24:56as she swiped through the photos
24:57one by one.
24:58Every single one
24:59had been stolen from me.
25:01Sophia's thumb
25:02hovered over the screen.
25:03She shot me a cold look
25:05and hit play.
25:06The banquet hall fell silent.
25:09My blood ran cold.
25:10On screen,
25:12a half-naked girl
25:13was caught on camera
25:14doing something intimate.
25:15Her face was clearly visible.
25:17It was my face.
25:18It was the video
25:19that ruined my life
25:20three years ago.
25:21Everyone in the banquet hall
25:23stood frozen,
25:24as if under a spell.
25:26Every eye moved
25:27from the screen to me.
25:29Beside the screen,
25:30Sophia hid a faint smile
25:32behind feigned panic.
25:33Sorry, Evelyn.
25:34I clicked the video
25:36by accident.
25:36I couldn't even make out
25:38what she was saying.
25:40I just felt everyone's eyes
25:41piercing through me.
25:43Shock, disgust,
25:45morbid curiosity, pity.
25:47Their stares flooded over me,
25:50threatening to drown me.
25:53I snapped back,
25:54rushed to the projector,
25:55and yanked out the cable.
25:57Then I grabbed Sophia's phone
25:58from the table
25:59and threw it into the beer keg.
26:00Sophia, what the hell
26:01are you trying to do?
26:02I told you,
26:03it was an accident.
26:04I slapped her.
26:06She clutched her cheek,
26:07staring at me in disbelief.
26:09Evelyn,
26:10who the hell do you think
26:11you are hitting me?
26:12Her face twisted with rage
26:13as she screamed at me.
26:15You dared to film it,
26:16but you can't stand
26:17people watching?
26:18Were you thinking about someone
26:19while touching yourself
26:20for the camera?
26:21Heads turned between
26:22Sophia and me.
26:23Some covered their mouths.
26:25Others began recording.
26:26Whispers spread,
26:27but no one intervened.
26:29A cruel smile curled
26:30at Sophia's lips.
26:31Was it your boyfriend
26:32at the time?
26:33or Victoria?
26:36What?
26:37Her and the CEO?
26:38Three years ago,
26:39her sex tape spread
26:40all over campus.
26:42Three years later,
26:43she crawled into her boss's bed.
26:45What else is she
26:46but a slut?
26:47You deserve to be exposed
26:49for what you really are,
26:50Evelyn Cross.
26:51You're absolutely disgusting!
26:53I stood there listening,
26:54my body trembling.
26:56Three years ago,
26:57I heard the very same words.
26:58Slut.
26:59Whore.
27:00Shameless.
27:01But I'm not the Evelyn
27:02I was three years ago.
27:03The one who could do
27:04nothing but cry.
27:05I did nothing wrong.
27:07Sophia,
27:08you have no right
27:09to judge me.
27:09You stole my work,
27:11my scholarship,
27:12and everything from me.
27:14You stepped on my life
27:15to get where you wanted,
27:16then turned around
27:17and called me filthy?
27:19The filthy one
27:20was you all along.
27:21Shut up!
27:22You should shut up.
27:24I grabbed her hair
27:25and slammed her
27:26onto the table.
27:27The table shook hard,
27:28spilling wine everywhere.
27:30Her cheek flattened
27:31against the table
27:32as she struggled
27:33under my grip.
27:35Apologize!
27:38Evelyn!
27:39What are you doing?
27:45Victoria shoved me
27:46so hard
27:47that I hit the table
27:48and it was being
27:48shot for me.
27:50Enough!
27:51Sophia curled
27:52into Victoria's arms
27:53like a frightened bird,
27:55tears streaming.
27:59Vicky,
28:00she hit me.
28:01She pinned my head
28:01down in front of everyone.
28:03How am I supposed
28:03to keep working here
28:04after this?
28:05Victoria fought
28:06to contain her anger
28:07as she demanded
28:07an answer.
28:09Evelyn,
28:09when did you get
28:10so rude?
28:11Suddenly,
28:12it all seemed ridiculous.
28:14Rude?
28:15You didn't even ask
28:16why I hit her.
28:17You just judged me guilty.
28:19Whatever happened,
28:20you had no right
28:21to treat her that way.
28:22The employees
28:23traded uneasy looks.
28:24No one spoke.
28:25Those gosling
28:26about the video moments
28:27where we are now
28:27stared at the floor,
28:28trying to disappear.
28:29Vicky,
28:30she's jealous of me.
28:32You don't know
28:32how obsessed
28:33she is with you.
28:34She couldn't stand
28:35seeing us together
28:35so that's why
28:36she did this to me.
28:37Victoria looked livid
28:38and turned to Evelyn.
28:40Evelyn,
28:41have you lost your mind?
28:42What did you say
28:43in front of everyone?
28:44To me,
28:45you,
28:45she paused.
28:46In that brief moment,
28:47I saw her throat bob
28:48as she swallowed.
28:49You're just a friend,
28:50my employee.
28:51Nothing more.
28:52A friend,
28:53an employee,
28:54nothing else.
28:55For three years,
28:56every night,
28:57every kiss,
28:58every time she whispered
28:59in my ear,
28:59don't leave me.
29:00All were erased
29:01in one sentence,
29:02in front of everyone.
29:04Victoria took a deep breath.
29:05her voice was
29:07non-negotiable.
29:08Evelyn,
29:09apologize to Sophia.
29:10I looked at Victoria
29:11and spoke quietly.
29:12What did you say?
29:13I said apologize
29:14and I'll act like
29:15this never happened.
29:16I laughed as if I'd heard
29:17the funniest joke
29:18in the world.
29:19Apologize to Sophia?
29:20My smile slowly faded
29:21and my eyes filled
29:22with resolution
29:23and disgust.
29:24I can't.
29:24That's disgusting.
29:27Victoria had never expected
29:28me to defy her publicly.
29:30She let go of Sophia,
29:31stepped closer to me,
29:32and looked down at me,
29:34each word sounding
29:35like a command.
29:35Evelyn,
29:36I'll give you
29:36one last chance.
29:38Apologize.
29:39Victoria had never expected me.
29:41I'll say it again.
29:42She doesn't deserve it.
29:44Victoria's pupils
29:45contracted slightly.
29:46She'd probably
29:47never seen me like this.
29:48For three years,
29:49I'd been obedient
29:50and considerate
29:51and never fought back.
29:52Her secretary,
29:53her lover.
29:53But now I was defying her.
29:55Panic flickered in her eyes
29:56before she gave me
29:57a cold stare.
29:58Evelyn,
29:59you...
29:59Sophia cut in,
30:00her voice silky soft.
30:01Vicky, let it go.
30:03She held out the glass to me.
30:05Evelyn, you're my sister.
30:06Why make a scene?
30:07Drink this,
30:08and let's pretend
30:09none of this ever happened, okay?
30:12Its dark red surface
30:13shimmered under the light
30:15like congealed blood.
30:16Victoria instinctively
30:17blocked the drink.
30:19Sophia, she can't drink.
30:20She stopped.
30:21She probably didn't even know
30:22why she stopped Sophia.
30:24She only remembered
30:25that for three years,
30:26no matter the occasion,
30:27I had never touched alcohol.
30:28But she didn't know why.
30:30Seeing Victoria
30:31take the drink for me,
30:32Sophia put on a hurt look.
30:34Vicky, maybe I shouldn't
30:35have come back.
30:35I should just leave.
30:36Sophia turned to leave,
30:38but Victoria stopped her,
30:39gentle yet firm.
30:41No one is making you leave.
30:42Victoria took the glass
30:44from Sophia,
30:45grabbed my chin,
30:46and forced the wine
30:47into my mouth.
30:48I pushed her away,
30:50coughing vidently.
30:51Evelyn, drink it.
30:54I can't drink.
30:56You're not leaving tonight
30:57until you drink.
30:59My tears finally fell.
31:01I remembered that operating room,
31:03the moment I signed my name,
31:04and the doctor's warning
31:06never to drink again.
31:07Victoria, I don't drink
31:09for the same reason you don't.
31:10We only have one kidney each,
31:12and our bodies can't handle alcohol.
31:14My voice was trembling.
31:16Victoria?
31:17Why are you doing this to me?
31:19All for Sophia?
31:20Victoria was silent for a moment.
31:23Pity crossed her face,
31:24but she said it anyway.
31:26Sophia saved my life.
31:29I swore I'd never let her suffer
31:31even a little.
31:32No one can hurt her.
31:33She saved your life?
31:34Could she be talking
31:35about the kidney transplant?
31:37Shock ran through me
31:38like electricity,
31:39and my voice rose
31:41against my will.
31:42No!
31:43Victoria, she wasn't
31:45the one who saved you!
31:46Tears poured down my face,
31:48and every word
31:49felt torn from my chest.
31:50I won!
31:54Victoria swayed,
31:55her voice trembling.
31:56What did you say?
31:58My tears kept falling,
31:59but my voice was strangely clear.
32:01When you developed
32:02acute kidney failure,
32:03I got tested,
32:04signed the surgery consent form,
32:05and gave you one of my kidneys.
32:08If that's why you've always
32:10been so kind to Sophia,
32:11then you're talking
32:11to the wrong person!
32:13I laughed kidly
32:13through my tears.
32:14I was the one
32:15on that operating table.
32:16I was the one
32:17they cut open.
32:18My kidney is in you,
32:20so how could she
32:20get the credit?
32:21Panic flashed
32:22through Sophia's eyes.
32:24She knew everything
32:25she had was stolen from me.
32:26Victoria's lips moved,
32:28but she said nothing.
32:29A few seconds later,
32:30she let out a cold laugh,
32:32shook her head,
32:32and looked at me
32:33with disappointment.
32:35Evelyn,
32:35you've lost your mind.
32:37I froze.
32:39You're making up a lie
32:40just to avoid
32:40apologizing and drinking?
32:42I know who donated the kidney.
32:44It was Sophia.
32:45I saw the last name
32:46on the donor consent form.
32:48It was Cross.
32:49Victoria turned to Sophia,
32:51her gaze gentle.
32:52When I woke up,
32:53Sophia was sitting
32:54beside my bed.
32:55She was wearing
32:56a hospital gown,
32:57pale,
32:58with an IV still in her arm.
33:00Victoria looked at me,
33:02her eyes turning cold.
33:04and back then,
33:05you were off
33:05fooling around with Mike.
33:06How dare you say
33:07you saved me?
33:08No,
33:08that's not what happened.
33:10I had just come out
33:11of surgery,
33:12and the anesthesia
33:13hadn't fully worn off.
33:14I felt hollowed out,
33:16and even breathing hurt.
33:17But I just wanted to see her,
33:19to make sure she was alive.
33:20But the pain was too much,
33:22and I fainted at the door.
33:25Sophia showed up,
33:27took off my hospital gown,
33:28put it on herself,
33:30and took all the credit.
33:31I looked at Victoria
33:32and shook my head,
33:33disappointed.
33:34At that moment,
33:35I didn't feel like
33:36explaining anymore.
33:37She wouldn't believe me.
33:38Anything I said
33:39was pointless.
33:41Vicky,
33:43my back,
33:44it hurts.
33:49Sophia,
33:50I'm taking you
33:50to the hospital.
33:51Victoria paused at the door
33:53without looking at me.
33:54Her voice was as cold
33:55as a freezing wind.
33:58Evelyn,
33:59we'll talk later.
34:00I lowered my head,
34:01my voice barely
34:02above a whisper.
34:03Victoria,
34:04we don't have later.
34:05Victoria seemed to hear me.
34:07She stopped,
34:08looked back at me,
34:09and frowned.
34:12Victoria hesitated for a moment
34:13before asking me,
34:15What did you say?
34:16I did not repeat myself.
34:18Victoria finally shook her head,
34:20a little impatiently.
34:21Never mind.
34:22We'll talk later.
34:24Victoria always said later.
34:25She'd make us official later,
34:27make our relationship public later.
34:29even hearing my explanation
34:30had to wait until later.
34:32After Victoria left,
34:33the staff in the banquet hall
34:35began drifting out
34:36like a receding tide.
34:38Just when I thought
34:38everyone had left,
34:39a hand gently rested
34:40on my shoulder.
34:41I turned to see Linda.
34:43She was my intern
34:44and my best assistant secretary.
34:46Evelyn,
34:47are you okay?
34:48I believe you.
34:49She hesitated,
34:50then continued.
34:51I've always known about you
34:52and Victoria.
34:54The way you look at each other
34:55makes it obvious you're in love.
34:57Victoria only treated you
34:58that way tonight
34:59because she didn't know
35:00about the video.
35:00If she knew Sophia had played it,
35:02she would never...
35:02I gently shook my head,
35:04cutting her off.
35:05It doesn't matter anymore.
35:07Thanks, Linny.
35:08You should go now.
35:09Linda opened her mouth
35:11but said nothing.
35:12She nodded and left.
35:15Alone in the banquet hall,
35:16I looked at my reflection
35:18in the glass,
35:18at the wine still on my lips,
35:20and wiped it away hard
35:21with the back of my hand.
35:23Then my phone vibrated.
35:25The Reset Your Life team.
35:27Program representative.
35:28License plate XX7742.
35:31A black sedan at the corner
35:32of Central Street
35:33and 7th Avenue, 755.
35:35Please arrive on time.
35:36This will be your final mission
35:37as Elilin Cross.
35:39We wish you a happy new life.
35:40It's time.
35:53I stood at the corner
35:54watching the car.
35:56It was like a silent beast
35:58waiting to swallow me whole
35:59and spit out someone new.
36:01I opened the door
36:02and got in without hesitation.
36:08Mrs. Ashfield,
36:09Sophia is fine.
36:10All her readings are normal.
36:11She was probably just frightened
36:12and needs some rest.
36:13I was irritated.
36:14I thought Sophia was seriously ill
36:16so I left Evelyn.
36:17At that moment,
36:18I just wanted to turn
36:19and walk away.
36:20Sophia,
36:21since you're alright,
36:22I'll be going.
36:22Vicky!
36:23I feel terrible.
36:24Will you stay with me?
36:27I said nothing.
36:29I stood beside the hospital bed,
36:31my gaze drifting to the window
36:32as a vague sense of unease
36:34crept over me.
36:36I raised a hand to my chest.
36:38My heart suddenly jolted
36:40as if an invisible hand
36:41had clamped down on it
36:42then let go.
36:43Vicky?
36:45Are you not feeling well?
36:49I'm fine.
36:50I took a deep breath,
36:52trying to calm myself
36:53but it didn't help.
36:54My heart pounded faster and faster
36:56until I was starting to panic.
36:58I felt hollow,
36:59as if something important
37:00were draining away from me.
37:02Evelyn.
37:05Outside the car window
37:06was the city I'd lived in
37:07for over 20 years.
37:08I was born here,
37:10grew up here,
37:10fell in love with Victoria here
37:12and lost myself here.
37:13Soon,
37:14the Reset Your Life program
37:15would erase all my memories
37:16and give me a new beginning.
37:17But before that,
37:18I still had two more things to do.
37:22Dr. White,
37:23I'm Evelyn Cross.
37:24Three years ago,
37:25you oversaw my kidney donation
37:26for Victoria Ashford.
37:27I'd like to have
37:28my donor identity disclosed
37:29and the relevant medical records
37:31sent to the Ashfords.
37:32Ms. Cross,
37:33I remember you.
37:34Of course,
37:34we'll respect your decision
37:35and reveal your identity.
37:37After hanging up,
37:38I sent the design competition's
37:39organizers everything I had
37:40to prove Sophia
37:41had plagiarized my work,
37:42the original layered files,
37:44creation timestanks,
37:45email exchanges,
37:46and more.
37:47Sophia,
37:48even if I no longer want
37:49what you stole from me,
37:50you'll never get to keep it.
37:53Once I was done,
37:54I leaned back
37:55and closed my eyes.
37:58Goodbye, Victoria.
38:02That strange feeling
38:04suddenly grew overwhelming.
38:05I shuggered,
38:06clutching my chest,
38:08my face turning deathly pale.
38:10It was an indescribable pain,
38:12like something was being
38:13ripped out of me
38:14by the roots.
38:15Vicky,
38:15what's wrong?
38:17My chest,
38:18it hurts.
38:19I'll get a doctor!
38:20I stopped her.
38:21I don't think a doctor
38:22could help.
38:23This pain wasn't physical.
38:24It came from somewhere deeper,
38:26from a corner of myself
38:27I'd never faced.
38:30No need.
38:31I'm looking for Evelyn.
38:33She'll know how to fix this.
38:35I'm waiting.
38:36Every second feels like an eternity.
38:38Whenever something happened,
38:40I'd call Evelyn.
38:41She always picked up right away
38:42and gently told me,
38:43I'm here.
38:44No matter how hard things got,
38:46she always handled them for me.
38:47For three years,
38:48that had been my surest habit,
38:49more natural than breathing.
38:51But this time,
38:52no matter how many times I called,
38:53Evelyn didn't answer.
38:55When my phone lit up,
38:57I let out a relieved sigh.
39:00It had to be Evelyn
39:01calling from another number
39:02because her phone had died.
39:05She never kept me waiting long.
39:08I answered the phone nervously.
39:10Evelyn?
39:11Hello, is this Ms. Ashford?
39:13This is the Central Street Traffic Division.
39:15My smile froze.
39:17In that instant,
39:18I heard my heart skip a beat.
39:19We found your number on a phone
39:21recovered from the accident scene.
39:22You're listed as Evelyn Cross's
39:24emergency contact.
39:25What, what accident?
39:27A black set exploded
39:28on the elevated bridge,
39:30killing a woman.
39:31Preliminary reports identify her
39:32as the phone's owner,
39:33Evelyn Cross.
39:35What?
39:36The world suddenly went silent.
39:38All I could hear
39:38was a ringing in my ears.
39:40I heard every word clearly,
39:41but together,
39:42they made no sense.
39:46No!
39:48Impossible!
39:50I shouted into the phone,
39:52my voice sounding foreign
39:53even to me.
39:55I don't accept it.
39:58Someone must be playing
40:00a sick joke on me!
40:01Who gave you the nerve
40:02to play a prank on me?
40:03Evelyn can't be dead!
40:06Please stay calm.
40:08The death notice
40:09will be sent to your address shortly.
40:11They'd already hung up,
40:13but I was still swearing.
40:15I couldn't stop,
40:17as if yelling loud enough
40:19could make it untrue.
40:21What nonsense!
40:23Don't let me catch you!
40:27Sophia grabbed my hand
40:29and tried to say something.
40:31I jerked free
40:32and glared at her.
40:33Right now,
40:34anyone's touch
40:35made me want to throw up.
40:37Don't touch me!
40:38Seeing me lose control
40:40left Sophia
40:41a little resentful.
40:42Vicky,
40:42isn't this a bit much?
40:44Evelyn probably disappeared
40:46on purpose
40:46to get your attention.
40:51I slowly turned to Sophia,
40:53my eyes full of fury
40:54and warning.
40:56Sophia swallowed hard
40:57and stepped aside.
41:01I had to find Evelyn,
41:03and I had to find her now.
41:05I needed to hear her voice.
41:06No matter how many times
41:08I called Evelyn,
41:09I couldn't reach her.
41:11I wanted to ask about Evelyn,
41:12but I didn't know
41:13who to call.
41:15Mom,
41:16has Evelyn called you?
41:17No.
41:18What is it, sweetheart?
41:19Didn't you always hate
41:20having Evelyn around us?
41:21I hung up in frustration,
41:24nearly consumed
41:25by helpless terror.
41:26I once thought
41:27the best way
41:28to control Evelyn
41:29was to isolate her
41:30from friends and family.
41:31I never realized
41:32that once she was gone,
41:33I'd lose all contact
41:35with her.
41:36I called Linda.
41:38Linda,
41:38did Evelyn say anything
41:39to you?
41:42I paused
41:43and glanced
41:44at the ward door.
41:45Let me ask you this.
41:46What exactly happened
41:47between Evelyn and Sophia
41:48at tonight's party?
41:52Linda hesitated so long
41:53that I started
41:54to feel uneasy.
41:55Mrs. Ashfield,
41:56I recorded it.
41:57I'll send you the video,
41:58and you'll understand
41:59when you see it.
42:00While waiting
42:01for Lena's video,
42:02I saw Sophia
42:03through the crack
42:03in the door.
42:05Sophia was excitedly
42:07patting the blanket.
42:09You should have seen
42:10her face
42:10when I played that video
42:11in front of the whole
42:12company today.
42:13You dared to film it,
42:15but you can't stand
42:16people watching?
42:17My entire body
42:17went rigid,
42:18and my eyes widened
42:19in shock.
42:20My blood turned to ice.
42:24You played her private video
42:26in front of everyone?
42:29I looked calm,
42:31but rage consumed me.
42:33How could you do that?
42:34Sophia gasped for air
42:36as I tightened
42:37my grip on her collar.
42:38She's your sister!
42:40How could you show
42:41her private video
42:42to the whole company?
42:43Three years ago,
42:44she nearly killed herself
42:45over that video,
42:46and you want to push
42:47her to do it again?
42:47You destroyed her!
42:49Sophia suddenly let out
42:51a sharp laugh.
42:52It sliced through my ears
42:53like shattered glass.
42:55I destroyed her?
42:57Victoria,
42:58what are you playing at?
42:59Three years ago,
43:00wasn't it you
43:01who hired someone
43:02to hack into her computer
43:03and post that video
43:04on the school forum?
43:05My face went deathly pale.
43:06I felt drained of all strength
43:08and took a step back.
43:09You destroyed her yourself
43:10and ruined her reputation.
43:12And now you're asking
43:13how I could do this?
43:14Her voice grew louder.
43:17Victoria,
43:17you're the last person
43:19who has any right
43:19to say that.
43:20I opened my mouth,
43:22but no sound came out.
43:23I destroyed her,
43:25pretended to save her,
43:26then kept her by my side
43:27for three years.
43:28I stole her work,
43:30trampled her feelings,
43:31forced her to drink
43:32and apologized to Sophia
43:33and told her,
43:34you're just a friend.
43:36I never thought
43:36that three years later,
43:38I'd be the one
43:39who regretted it most.
43:44Sophia,
43:45I never should have hired you
43:46as chief designer.
43:47Leave.
43:48I'll recommend you
43:48to another company.
43:49How could you do this to me?
43:51I gave you a kidney,
43:52don't you remember?
43:53Closed my eyes,
43:54took a deep breath,
43:54then opened them again.
43:55My gaze held only
43:56exhaustion and resolve.
43:58Her kidney donation
43:59once made me indulge
44:00every demand she made.
44:01But now,
44:02I don't want to hear
44:02about it anymore.
44:03Sophia,
44:03you saved my life
44:04and I'm grateful.
44:06But I've already
44:07done enough for you.
44:08From now on,
44:09I won't do anything
44:10for you anymore,
44:11especially if it means
44:12hurting Evelyn.
44:19You're in love
44:20with her,
44:21aren't you?
44:21I paused for a moment.
44:22I didn't deny it.
44:24I opened the door
44:25and stepped outside.
44:26Mobilize all
44:27our family's resources.
44:28Search the entire city
44:29for Evelyn at once.
44:30I shouted into the phone.
44:32I rarely spoke like that
44:33and I'd never lost control
44:34like that over anyone before.
44:36Now I didn't care
44:37about any of it anymore.
44:38Family reputation,
44:39business etiquette,
44:40or staying calm
44:41and poised.
44:41I just wanted to find
44:42her.
44:43I don't believe a word
44:44the police say.
44:44I want to see Evelyn
44:45alive or dead.
44:46Whatever it costs,
44:47I have to see her again.
