00:00You taste like summer, bitch.
00:03Sticky hands and salt.
00:05My fiance crashed a wedding the day before I own.
00:07He couldn't stand watching his first love be forced to marry the most notorious playboy in New York's underworld.
00:13That night, they cleared everyone out of a private chapel in Manhattan.
00:16They got married on the spot.
00:18All of New York's high society was waiting to laugh at me.
00:21But the next morning, that so-called playboy Sebastian drove up to my estate in a flashy silver Aston Martin.
00:27The engine roared.
00:28Sunglasses on.
00:30He leaned against the car and whistled.
00:33Arthur stole my fiance, so you owe me a wife.
00:37Marry me.
00:37Fair deal, right?
00:39I nodded.
00:40Fair deal.
00:40I'm in.
00:41Sebastian didn't expect me to accept such a crazy offer.
00:44He took off his sunglasses, stared for a long time, and stammered.
00:48You mean it?
00:49I'll be back for you in three days.
00:51No backing out.
00:52He sped off like he was afraid I'd change my mind.
00:55The Aston Martin roared down the driveway, almost hitting the stone pillar at the gate.
00:59I laughed.
01:00Watching the sports car disappear, I realized he wasn't as bad as the rumors said.
01:04He was almost cute.
01:05Right after Sebastian left, Arthur showed up.
01:08My expression went cold.
01:10Mr. Wood, why are you here instead of staying home with your wife?
01:14Arthur froze, then forced a smile.
01:16Vivian, I didn't want this.
01:18But Isabella is too soft.
01:20I couldn't bear to see her marry that womanizing bastard.
01:22It would have ruined her life.
01:24So he didn't care that the Corleone family and I had become a laughing stock.
01:28The moment he crashed that wedding, we were over.
01:31Leave, Mr. Wood.
01:33Our engagement is canceled.
01:37Arthur frowned and tried to take my hand.
01:39Vivian, stop acting up.
01:40Even if I married her, it won't change a thing between us.
01:44You and Isabella are both my women.
01:46I'll treat you both equally.
01:47He actually had the nerve to ask me, a daughter of the Corleone family, to be his hidden mistress.
01:52Even if I agreed, the old men in my family with Thompson submachine guns never would.
01:57I stepped back and looked at him coldly.
01:59Women of the Corleone family do not become mistresses.
02:02Arthur looked annoyed.
02:03No one would ever call you that.
02:05I'd never let anyone look down on you.
02:06Why make this hard for me?
02:08I was making it hard for him.
02:10I almost laughed.
02:11He was the one who ruined our wedding.
02:13Married another woman and made me a joke.
02:16Now he was blaming me.
02:17I shot him a mocking look.
02:19I said, Corleone women do not become mistresses.
02:23Arthur snapped, his face darkening.
02:25Vivian, don't push your luck.
02:27Everyone knows you've been with me for years.
02:29You're used goods.
02:30Let's see who else in New York dares to marry you if you leave me.
02:34He turned on his heel and stormed off.
02:36I was shaking with rage and grief.
02:38The Arthur who loved me and couldn't stand to see me suffer was gone.
02:41Now, he belonged to Isabella.
02:43And Sebastian wasn't giving me time to grieve.
02:45The next day, the Volkov family arrived to propose.
02:48Over 20 black briefcases packed with cash, property deeds,
02:51and stock documents filled my living room wall to wall.
02:56My father took one look at the cases and shook his head.
02:59Sebastian?
03:00That lunatic?
03:02My mother added,
03:03His reputation is garbage.
03:05Once you go through with this, there's no turning back.
03:08But my mind was made up.
03:09If I couldn't have love, I would have power.
03:11And Sebastian, for all his flaws, was the future king of New York's underworld.
03:15As I was about to have the money and deeds moved to the vault,
03:18Arthur and Isabella walked in.
03:20Seeing the cases, they misunderstood.
03:23Arthur smirked that smug I knew it look all over his face.
03:26Greed flashed in Isabella's eyes.
03:29Wow, Vivian.
03:30Is all this what your family's giving Arthur to marry you?
03:33Isabella was the bastard daughter of a family captain and a club dancer.
03:37Her own family despised her.
03:38On her wedding day, they hadn't even given her a proper send-off.
03:42They kicked her out like a beggar.
03:43I frowned.
03:44No.
03:45Arthur scoffed.
03:47Stop faking.
03:48Yesterday you said you wouldn't marry me.
03:50And today you already have your money and deeds packed.
03:53That's right, Vivian.
03:54Once you move in, we'll be family.
03:56Arthur, didn't you bring a gift for her?
03:58Show her.
03:59Isabella chimed in.
04:00She nudged him.
04:01As she moved, a flash of light caught my eye.
04:03The woods had a ring, a diamond, passed down to the wife of the family head.
04:06Arthur had promised it to me more times than I could count.
04:09And now there it was on Isabella's finger.
04:11Isabella noticed me looking and raised her hand to flaunt it.
04:14Reminded by Isabella, Arthur pulled a cheap plastic hair claw from his pocket
04:18and tossed it at me as if he were doing me a massive favor.
04:21Here.
04:22For you.
04:26I looked at the tacky, chipped piece of plastic and laughed.
04:29Isabella got a diamond heirloom ring and I got this.
04:32I handed it back.
04:33No thanks.
04:34Keep such a luxury for your precious Isabella.
04:36Fine.
04:37Don't want it?
04:37Then it's garbage.
04:38Arthur's face twisted with anger.
04:40He snapped the clip and threw it in the trash.
04:42Vivian, Arthur, and I picked that out together.
04:43It's the thought that counts.
04:45She held out a pink lease dress.
04:46Oh, right.
04:46Since you're moving in with us in a couple of days, I picked out this dress for you.
04:49Please accept it.
04:50I laughed out of sheer anger.
04:52No one gets married in a dress like that.
04:53Looking at Isabella's smug face, I finally understood why they came.
04:56They wanted to put me in my place.
04:58I told you, our engagement is off.
04:59If you two are done, get out.
05:01Vivian, stop talking nonsense.
05:02You should try it on.
05:03Neither took me seriously.
05:04Isabella grabbed my arm, trying to pull me toward the dressing room.
05:07Get lost.
05:08Don't touch me.
05:08I shoved her hand off.
05:10I barely used any force, but Isabella threw herself backward onto the floor, her eyes welling up.
05:15I'm sorry, Vivian.
05:16I just wanted you to try on the dress.
05:18Arthur's face darting.
05:19He shoved me back hard.
05:21Vivian, Isabella spent days picking that dress for you.
05:23You're a jealous, vicious woman.
05:24No wonder nobody wants you.
05:25Have fun dying alone.
05:26He picked Isabella up and stormed out.
05:28As they left, Isabella looked back over his shoulder and flashed me a triumphant smirk.
05:35The scene reminded me of how they first met.
05:38Back then, Isabella was an unacknowledged, illegitimate daughter.
05:41At a party, her older half-sister humiliated her, slapping her and forcing her to kneel after an accidental wine
05:47spill.
05:48Unable to stand the bullying, Arthur stepped in.
05:52From then on, he constantly looked after Isabella under the guise of pity.
05:58I believed him until the day Isabella was forced to marry Sebastian.
06:02And Arthur crashed the wedding to steal her away.
06:05That was when I realized Isabella had already stolen his heart.
06:10My wedding to Sebastian was on New Year's Day.
06:12The night before, I went to Times Square alone.
06:16Every year before this, Arthur had taken me for the countdown and a midnight kiss.
06:21This year, I went alone.
06:23But when I reached our usual spot, it was blocked off.
06:25A velvet rope and a guard stood where we used to stand.
06:28Beyond it, the lounge Arthur once took me to was lit up and packed with guests.
06:33I wasn't on the list.
06:34As I stood there, I overheard two women nearby.
06:37Mr. Wood really went all out.
06:38He rented the entire VIP lounge and had it redecorated for her.
06:41I know.
06:42If I were Mrs. Wood, I'd be crying tears of joy.
06:44That's nothing.
06:45He even offended a mafia prince for her and made a prominent heir's just settle for being his mistress.
06:49I'd do anything for a man that good.
06:51A self-mocking smile crossed my face.
06:54Just as I turned to leave, a familiar voice called out from behind.
06:58Vivian.
06:58I turned around.
07:00Arthur and Isabella were standing just a short distance away.
07:05She ran over to me, holding a glass of champagne.
07:08Vivian, are you here for the ball drop too?
07:10Arthur was still angry about yesterday and gave me a harsh glare.
07:14Isabella held up her glass, waving it at me.
07:17I'm so sorry, Vivian.
07:19Arthur booked the whole rooftop tonight.
07:21Here, you can have this drink.
07:24No thanks.
07:25I took a step back, refusing to let her frame me again.
07:29Besides, I had no interest in using second-hand things, whether it was a drink or a man.
07:34Arthur's face darkened, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
07:37The great Miss Corlan is too good for our things anyway.
07:40Ignore her, Isabella.
07:41Let's go.
07:43He pulled her towards the building entrance.
07:46As soon as they left, a butler in a sharp suit approached me.
07:50Miss Vivian, the young master asked me to give you this.
07:54I looked at the object in surprise.
07:55It was a dark silver metal rose.
07:57The petals were sharp as blades, and deep blue diamonds were embedded at the base.
08:01Engraved on the stem was my name, Vivian.
08:04It was the most beautiful gift I had ever seen.
08:06I didn't want to hide it in a drawer, so I placed it on my nightstand.
08:11The next morning, the maids woke me early to do my makeup and dress me in my wedding gown.
08:16Looking in the mirror, it finally felt real.
08:19I was getting married.
08:21I was nervous, but I took a deep breath.
08:24I had made my choice, and I was going to see it through.
08:28Once I was ready, the groom's car arrived.
08:32But it wasn't Sebastian who stepped out.
08:35It was Arthur.
08:39I stared in disbelief as Arthur strode towards me.
08:44Seeing me in a white wedding gown, his face twisted in disgust.
08:47Vivian, who told you to wear that?
08:49Isabella will be upset.
08:51Go change before she notices.
08:53My temper flared at his sheer arrogance.
08:56Arthur, I've told you a dozen times our engagement is canceled.
08:59I am not marrying you today.
09:01My husband will be here soon, so get lost.
09:04Arthur scoffed.
09:06Cut the act.
09:07Who else would marry you besides me?
09:09Just behave, and I'll buy you whatever you want.
09:13I rolled my eyes.
09:14The man was completely delusional.
09:17Before I could fire back, a deep, powerful engine roared down the street.
09:22Arthur glanced back, frowning.
09:24Is someone else in the Corleone family getting married today?
09:26A fleet of black Rolls Royces pulled up, led by a silver Aston Martin that stopped right in front of
09:31us.
09:32Sebastian was at the wheel.
09:33He looked at Arthur with a lazy grin.
09:36Well, well.
09:36If it isn't Mr. Wood trying to steal my bride again.
09:40Arthur froze.
09:41A sudden wave of panic hitting him.
09:43What do you mean, your bride?
09:44Sebastian opened his mouth, but I cut him off.
09:47I stepped forward and stared into his eyes.
09:49Arthur, he is my husband.
09:52He's the man I'm marrying today.
09:57My fiance crashed a wedding the day before I owned.
09:59He couldn't stand watching his first love be forced to marry the most notorious playboy in New York's underworld.
10:04That night, they cleared everyone out of a private chapel in Manhattan.

10:21Sunglasses on.
10:22He leaned against the car and whistled.
10:25Arthur stole my fiancee.
10:27So you owe me a wife.
10:29Marry me.
10:30Fair deal, right?
10:31I nodded.
10:32Fair deal.
10:33I'm in.
10:33Sebastian didn't expect me to accept such a crazy offer.
10:36He took off his sunglasses, stared for a long time, and stammered.
10:39You mean it?
10:41I'll be back for you in three days.
10:43No backing out.
10:45He sped off like he was afraid I'd change my mind.
10:47The Aston Martin roared down the driveway, almost hitting a stone pillar at the gate.
10:51I laughed, watching the sports car disappear.
10:53I realized he wasn't as bad as the rumors said.
10:56He was almost cute.
10:57Right after Sebastian left, Arthur showed up.
11:00My expression went cold.

18:03The next morning, the maids woke me early to do my makeup and dress me in my wedding gown.
18:09Looking in the mirror, it finally felt real.
18:11I was getting married.
18:13I was nervous, but I took a deep breath.
18:16I had made my choice, and I was going to see it through.
18:20Once I was ready, the groom's car arrived.
18:25But it wasn't Sebastian who stepped out.
18:27It was Arthur.
18:32I stared in disbelief as Arthur strode towards me.
18:36Seeing me in a white wedding gown, his face twisted in disgust.
18:40Vivian, who told you to wear that?
18:41Isabella will be upset.
18:43Go change before she notices.
18:45My temper flared at his sheer arrogance.
18:48Arthur, I've told you a dozen times our engagement is canceled.
18:52I am not marrying you today.
18:53My husband will be here soon, so get lost.
18:56Arthur scoffed.
18:58Cut the act.
19:00Who else would marry you besides me?
19:02Just behave, and I'll buy you whatever you want.
19:05I rolled my eyes.
19:06The man was completely delusional.
19:09Before I could fire back, a deep, powerful engine roared down the street.
19:14Arthur glanced back, frowning.
19:16Is someone else in the Corleone family getting married today?
19:19A fleet of Black Rolls Royces pulled up, led by a silver Aston Martin that stopped right in front of
19:24us.
19:24Sebastian was at the wheel.
19:25He looked at Arthur with a lazy grin.
19:28Well, well, if it isn't Mr. Wood trying to steal my bride again.
19:32Arthur froze, a sudden wave of panic hitting him.
19:35What do you mean, your bride?
19:37Sebastian opened his mouth, but I cut him off.
19:39I stepped forward and stared into his eyes.
19:41Arthur, he is my husband.
19:44He's the man I'm marrying today.
19:54My fiance crashed a wedding the day before I own.
19:57He couldn't stand watching his first love be forced to marry the most notorious playboy in New York's underworld.
20:02That night, they cleared everyone out of a private chapel in Manhattan.
20:06They got married on the spot.
20:08All of New York's high society was waiting to laugh at me.
20:11But the next morning, that so-called playboy Sebastian drove up to my estate in a flashy silver Aston Martin.
20:16The engine roared.
20:18Sunglasses on.
20:19He leaned against the car and whistled.
20:22Arthur stole my fiance.
20:25So you owe me a wife.
20:26Marry me.
20:27Fair deal, right?
20:28I nodded.
20:29Fair deal.
20:30I'm in.
20:31Sebastian didn't expect me to accept such a crazy offer.
20:33He took off his sunglasses, stared for a long time, and stammered.
20:37You mean it?
20:38I'll be back for you in three days.
20:41No backing out.
20:42He sped off like he was afraid I'd change my mind.
20:44The Aston Martin roared down the driveway, almost hitting the stone pillar at the gate.
20:48I laughed.
20:49Watching the sports car disappear, I realized he wasn't as bad as the rumors said.
20:53He was almost cute.
20:55Right after Sebastian left, Arthur showed up.
20:57My expression went cold.
21:00Mr. Wood, why are you here instead of staying home with your wife?
21:03Arthur froze, then forced a smile.
21:06Vivian, I didn't want this.
21:08But Isabella is too soft.
21:09I couldn't bear to see her marry that womanizing bastard.
21:12It would have ruined her life.
21:13So he didn't care that the Corleone family and I had become a laughing stock.
21:17The moment he crashed that wedding, we were over.
21:20Leave, Mr. Wood.
21:23Our engagement is canceled.
21:26Arthur frowned and tried to take my hand.
21:29Vivian, stop acting up.
21:30Even if I married her, it won't change a thing between us.
21:33You and Isabella are both my women.
21:35I'll treat you both equally.
21:37He actually had the nerve to ask me, a daughter of the Corleone family, to be his hidden mistress.
21:42Even if I agreed, the old men in my family with Thompson submachine guns never would.
21:46I stepped back and looked at him coldly.
21:48Women of the Corleone family do not become mistresses.
21:51Arthur looked annoyed.
21:53No one would ever call you that.
21:54I'd never let anyone look down on you.
21:56Why make this hard for me?
21:57I was making it hard for him.
21:59I almost laughed.
22:01He was the one who ruined our wedding.
22:03Married another woman and made me a joke.
22:05Now he was blaming me.
22:07I shot him a mocking look.
22:09I said, Corleone women do not become mistresses.
22:13Arthur snapped, his face darkening.
22:14Vivian, don't push your luck.
22:16Everyone knows you've been with me for years.
22:18You're used goods.
22:20Let's see who else in New York dares to marry you if you leave me.
22:23He turned on his heel and stormed off.
22:25I was shaking with rage and grief.
22:27The Arthur who loved me and couldn't stand to see me suffer was gone.
22:31Now, he belonged to Isabella, and Sebastian wasn't giving me time to grieve.
22:35The next day, the Volkov family arrived to propose.
22:38Over 20 black briefcases packed with cash, property deeds, and stock documents filled my living room wall to wall.
22:46My father took one look at the cases and shook his head.
22:49Sebastian?
22:50That lunatic?
22:51My mother added,
22:52His reputation is garbage.
22:55Once you go through with this, there's no turning back.
22:57But my mind was made up.
22:58If I couldn't have love, I would have power.
23:01And Sebastian, for all his flaws, was the future king of New York's underworld.
23:05As I was about to have the money and deeds moved to the vault, Arthur and Isabella walked in.
23:10Seeing the cases, they misunderstood.
23:12Arthur smirked that smug I knew it looked all over his face.
23:16Greed flashed in Isabella's eyes.
23:18Wow, Vivian.
23:20Is all this what your family's giving Arthur to marry you?
23:23Isabella was the bastard daughter of a family captain and a club dancer.
23:26Her own family despised her.
23:28On her wedding day, they hadn't even given her a proper send-off.
23:31They kicked her out like a beggar.
23:33I frowned.
23:34No.
23:35Arthur scoffed.
23:37Stop faking.
23:38Yesterday you said you wouldn't marry me.
23:40And today you already have your money and deeds packed.
23:42That's right, Vivian.
23:44Once you move in, we'll be family.
23:46Arthur, didn't you bring a gift for her?
23:48Show her.
23:49Isabella chimed in.
23:50She nudged him.
23:50As she moved, a flash of light caught my eye.
23:53The woods had a ring.
23:53A diamond.
23:54Passed down to the wife of the family head.
23:56Arthur had promised it to me more times than I could count.
23:58And now there it was on Isabella's finger.
24:00Isabella noticed me looking and raised her hand to flaunt it.
24:03Reminded by Isabella, Arthur pulled a cheap plastic hair claw from his pocket.
24:07And tossed it at me as if he were doing me a massive favor.
24:11Here.
24:12For you.
24:15I looked at the tacky, chipped piece of plastic and laughed.
24:19Isabella got a diamond heirloom ring.
24:20And I got this.
24:21I handed it back.
24:22No thanks.
24:23Keep such a luxury for your precious Isabella.
24:26Fine.
24:26Don't want it?
24:27Then it's garbage.
24:28Arthur's face twisted with anger.
24:29He snatched the clip and threw it in the trash.
24:31Vivian, Arthur, and I picked that out together.
24:33It's the thought that counts.
24:34She held out a pink lease dress.
24:36Oh right.
24:36Since you're moving in with us in a couple of days, I picked out this dress for you.
24:39Please accept it.
24:40I laughed out of sheer anger.
24:41No one gets married in a dress like that.
24:43Looking at Isabella's smug face, I finally understood why they came.
24:46They wanted to put me in my place.
24:48I told you, our engagement is off.
24:49If you two are done, get out.
24:50Vivian, stop talking nonsense.
24:51You should try it on.
24:52Neither took me seriously.
24:54Isabella grabbed my arm, trying to pull me toward the dressing room.
24:56Get lost.
24:57Don't touch me.
24:58I shoved her hand off.
24:59I barely used any force.
25:01But Abella threw herself backward onto the floor, her eyes welling up.
25:04I'm sorry, Vivian.
25:06I just wanted you to try on the dress.
25:08Arthur's face darted me.
25:09He shoved me back hard.
25:10Vivian, Isabella spent days picking that dress for you.
25:13You're a jealous, vicious woman.
25:14No wonder nobody wants you.
25:15Have fun dying alone.
25:16He picked Isabella up and stormed out.
25:18As they left, Isabella looked back over his shoulder and flashed me a triumphant smirk.
25:24The scene reminded me of how they first met.
25:27Back then, Isabella was an unacknowledged, illegitimate daughter.
25:31At a party, her older half-sister humiliated her, slapping her and forcing her to kneel after an accidental wine
25:37spill.
25:38Unable to stand the bullying, Arthur stepped in.
25:42From then on, he constantly looked after Isabella under the guise of pity.
25:47I believed him until the day Isabella was forced to marry Sebastian and Arthur crashed the wedding to steal her
25:54away.
25:55That was when I realized Isabella had already stolen his heart.
25:59My wedding to Sebastian was on New Year's Day.
26:02The night before, I went to Times Square alone.
26:05Every year before this, Arthur had taken me for the countdown and a midnight kiss.
26:10This year, I went alone.
26:12But when I reached our usual spot, it was blocked off.
26:15A velvet rope and a guard stood where we used to stand.
26:18Beyond it, the lounge Arthur once took me to was lit up and packed with guests.
26:22I wasn't on the list.
26:24As I stood there, I overheard two women nearby.
26:26Mr. Wood really went all out.
26:27He rented the entire VIP lounge and had it redecorated for her.
26:31I know.
26:32If I were Mrs. Wood, I'd be crying tears of joy.
26:34That's nothing.
26:34He even offended a mafia prince for her and made a prominent heir just settle for being his mistress.
26:39I'd do anything for a man that good.
26:41A self-mocking smile crossed my face.
26:44Just as I turned to leave, a familiar voice called out from behind.
26:48Vivian.
26:48I turned around.
26:49Arthur and Isabella were standing just a short distance away.
26:55She ran over to me, holding a glass of champagne.
26:58Vivian, are you here for the ball drop too?
27:00Arthur was still angry about yesterday and gave me a harsh glare.
27:04Isabella held up her glass, waving it at me.
27:06I'm so sorry, Vivian.
27:08Arthur booked the whole rooftop tonight.
27:11Here, you can have this drink.
27:14No thanks.
27:15I took a step back, refusing to let her frame me again.
27:18Besides, I had no interest in using second-hand things, whether it was a drink or a man.
27:23Arthur's face darkened, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
27:26The great Miss Corlan is too good for our things anyway.
27:30Ignore her, Isabella.
27:31Let's go.
27:33He pulled her towards the building entrance.
27:36As soon as they left, a butler in a sharp suit approached me.
27:40Miss Vivian, the young master asked me to give you this.
27:43I looked at the object in surprise.
27:45It was a dark silver metal rose.
27:47The petals were sharp as blades, and deep blue diamonds were embedded at the base.
27:51Engraved on the stem was my name, Vivian.
27:54It was the most beautiful gift I had ever seen.
27:56I didn't want to hide it in a drawer, so I placed it on my nightstand.
28:00The next morning, the maids woke me early to do my makeup and dress me in my wedding gown.
28:06Looking in the mirror, it finally felt real.
28:08I was getting married.
28:10I was nervous, but I took a deep breath.
28:13I had made my choice, and I was going to see it through.
28:17Once I was ready, the groom's car arrived.
28:22But it wasn't Sebastian who stepped out.
28:25It was Arthur.
28:29I stared in disbelief as Arthur strode towards me.
28:33Seeing me in a white wedding gown, his face twisted in disgust.
28:37Vivian, who told you to wear that?
28:39Isabella will be upset.
28:40Go change before she notices.
28:42My temper flared at his sheer arrogance.
28:45Arthur, I've told you a dozen times our engagement is canceled.
28:49I am not marrying you today.
28:50My husband will be here soon, so get lost.
28:54Arthur scoffed.
28:56Cut the act.
28:57Who else would marry you besides me?
28:59Just behave, and I'll buy you whatever you want.
29:02I rolled my eyes.
29:04The man was completely delusional.
29:06Before I could fire back, a deep, powerful engine roared down the street.
29:12Arthur glanced back, frowning.

29:16A fleet of black Rolls Royces pulled up, led by a silver Aston Martin that stopped right in front of
29:21us.
29:21Sebastian was at the wheel.
29:23He looked at Arthur with a lazy grin.
29:25Well, well, if it isn't Mr. Wood trying to steal my bride again.
29:29Arthur froze, a sudden wave of panic hitting him.

30:33No backing out.
30:34He sped off like he was afraid I'd change my mind.
30:37The Aston Martin roared down the driveway, almost hitting the stone pillar at the gate.
30:41I laughed.
30:42Watching the sports car disappear, I realized he wasn't as bad as the rumors said.
30:46He was almost cute.
30:47Right after Sebastian left, Arthur showed up.
30:50My expression went cold.

34:14I handed it back.
34:15No thanks.

36:40Vivian.
36:40I turned around.
36:41Arthur and Isabella were standing just a short distance away.
36:47She ran over to me, holding a glass of champagne.
36:50Vivian, are you here for the ball drop too?
36:52Arthur was still angry about yesterday and gave me a harsh glare.
36:56Isabella held up her glass, waving it at me.
36:59I'm so sorry, Vivian.
37:01Arthur booked the whole rooftop tonight.
37:03Here, you can have this drink.
37:06No thanks.
37:07I took a step back, refusing to let her frame me again.
37:11Besides, I had no interest in using second-hand things, whether it was a drink or a man.
37:16Arthur's face darkened, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
37:19The great Miss Corlan is too good for our things anyway.
37:22Ignore her, Isabella.
37:23Let's go.
37:25He pulled her towards the building entrance.
37:28As soon as they left, a butler in a sharp suit approached me.
37:32Miss Vivian, the young master asked me to give you this.
37:35I looked at the object in surprise.
37:37It was a dark silver metal rose.
37:39The petals were sharp as blades, and deep blue diamonds were embedded at the base.
37:43Engraved on the stem was my name, Vivian.
37:46It was the most beautiful gift I had ever seen.
37:48I didn't want to hide it in a drawer, so I placed it on my nightstand.
37:53The next morning, the maids woke me early to do my makeup and dress me in my wedding gown.
37:58Looking in the mirror, it finally felt real.
38:01I was getting married.
38:03I was nervous, but I took a deep breath.
38:05I had made my choice, and I was going to see it through.
38:10Once I was ready, the groom's call arrived.
38:14But it wasn't Sebastian who stepped out.
38:17It was Arthur.
38:21I stared in disbelief as Arthur strode towards me, seeing me in a white wedding gown, his face twisted in
38:28disgust.
38:29Vivian, who told you to wear that?
38:31Isabella will be upset.
38:33Go change before she notices.
38:35My temper flared at his sheer arrogance.
38:37Arthur, I've told you a dozen times our engagement is canceled.
38:41I am not marrying you today.
38:43My husband will be here soon, so get lost.
38:46Arthur scoffed.
38:48Cut the act.
38:49Who else would marry you besides me?
38:51Just behave, and I'll buy you whatever you want.
38:55I rolled my eyes.
38:56The man was completely delusional.
38:59Before I could fire back, a deep, powerful engine roared down the street.
39:04Arthur glanced back, frowning.
39:06Is someone else in the Corleone family getting married today?
39:08A fleet of Black Rolls Royces pulled up, led by a silver Aston Martin that stopped right in front of
39:13us.
39:14Sebastian was at the wheel.
39:15He looked at Arthur with a lazy grin.
39:17Well, well, if it isn't Mr. Wood trying to steal my bride again.
39:22Arthur froze, a sudden wave of panic hitting him.
39:25What do you mean, your bride?
39:26Sebastian opened his mouth, but I cut him off.
39:29I stepped forward and stared into his eyes.
39:31Arthur, he is my husband.
39:34He's the man I'm marrying today.
39:44My fiance crashed a wedding the day before I own.
39:46He couldn't stand watching his first love be forced to marry the most notorious playboy in New York's underworld.
39:52That night, they cleared everyone out of a private chapel in Manhattan.
39:55They got married on the spot.
39:57All of New York's high society was waiting to laugh at me.
40:00But the next morning, that so-called playboy Sebastian drove up to my estate in a flashy silver Aston Martin.
40:06The engine roared.
40:08Sunglasses on.
40:09He leaned against the car and whistled.
40:12Arthur stole my fiance.
40:14So you owe me a wife.
40:16Marry me.
40:17Fair deal, right?
40:18I nodded.
40:19Fair deal.
40:20I'm in.
40:20Sebastian didn't expect me to accept such a crazy offer.
40:23He took off his sunglasses, stared for a long time, and stammered.
40:27You mean it?
40:28I'll be back for you in three days.
40:30No backing out.
40:32He sped off like he was afraid I'd change my mind.
40:34The Aston Martin roared down the driveway, almost hitting a stone pillar at the gate.
40:38I laughed.
40:39Watching the sports car disappear, I realized he wasn't as bad as the rumors said.
40:43He was almost cute.
40:44Right after Sebastian left, Arthur showed up.
40:47My expression went cold.
40:49Mr. Wood, why are you here instead of staying home with your wife?
40:53Arthur froze, then forced a smile.
40:56Vivian, I didn't want this.
40:57But Isabella is too soft.
40:59I couldn't bear to see her marry that womanizing bastard.
41:01It would have ruined her life.
41:03So he didn't care that the Corleone family and I had become a laughing stock.
41:07The moment he crashed that wedding, we were over.
41:10Leave, Mr. Wood.
41:12Our engagement is cancelled.
41:16Arthur frowned and tried to take my hand.
41:18Vivian, stop acting up.
41:20Even if I married her, it won't change a thing between us.
41:23You and Isabella are both my women.
41:25I'll treat you both equally.
41:26He actually had the nerve to ask me, a daughter of the Corleone family, to be his hidden mistress.
41:32Even if I agreed, the old men in my family with Thompson submachine guns never would.
41:36I stepped back and looked at him coldly.
41:38Women of the Corleone family do not become mistresses.
41:41Arthur looked annoyed.
41:42No one would ever call you that.
41:44I'd never let anyone look down on you.
41:45Why make this hard for me?
41:47I was making it hard for him.
41:49I almost laughed.
41:50He was the one who ruined our wedding.
41:52Married another woman and made me a joke.
41:55Now he was blaming me.
41:56I shot him a mocking look.
41:58I said, Corleone women do not become mistresses.
42:02Arthur snapped, his face darkening.
42:04Vivian, don't push your luck.
42:06Everyone knows you've been with me for years.
42:08You're used goods.
42:09Let's see who else in New York dares to marry you if you leave me.
42:13He turned on his heel and stormed off.
42:15I was shaking with rage and grief.
42:17The Arthur who loved me and couldn't stand to see me suffer was gone.
42:20Now, he belonged to Isabella.
42:22And Sebastian wasn't giving me time to grieve.
42:24The next day, the Volkov family arrived to propose.
42:27Over 20 black briefcases packed with cash, property deeds, and stock documents filled my living room wall to wall.
42:35My father took one look at the cases and shook his head.
42:39Sebastian?
42:40That lunatic?
42:41My mother added,
42:42His reputation is garbage.
42:44Once you go through with this, there's no turning back.
42:47But my mind was made up.
42:48If I couldn't have love, I would have power.
42:50And Sebastian, for all his flaws, was the future king of New York's underworld.
42:55As I was about to have the money and deeds moved to the vault, Arthur and Isabella walked in.
42:59Seeing the cases, they misunderstood.
43:02Arthur smirked that smug I knew it look all over his face.
43:05Greed flashed in Isabella's eyes.
43:08Wow, Vivian.
43:09Is all this what your family's giving Arthur to marry you?
43:12Isabella was the bastard daughter of a family captain and a club dancer.
43:16Her own family despised her.
43:18On her wedding day, they hadn't even given her a proper send-off.
43:21They kicked her out like a beggar.
43:23I frowned.
43:24No.
43:25Arthur scoffed.
43:26Stop faking.
43:27Yesterday you said you wouldn't marry me.
43:29And today you already have your money and deeds packed.
43:32That's right, Vivian.
43:33Once you move in, we'll be family.
43:35Arthur, didn't you bring a gift for her?
43:37Show her.
43:38Isabella chimed in.
43:39She nudged him.
43:40As she moved, a flash of light caught my eye.
43:42The woods had a ring.
43:43A diamond.
43:44Passed down to the wife of the family head.
43:45Arthur had promised it to me more times than I could count.
43:48And now there it was on Isabella's finger.
43:50Isabella noticed me looking and raised her hand to flaunt it.
43:53Reminded by Isabella, Arthur pulled a cheap plastic hair claw from his pocket and tossed
43:57it at me as if he were doing me a massive favor.
44:00Here.
44:01For you.
44:05I looked at the tacky, chipped piece of plastic and laughed.
44:08Isabella got a diamond heirloom ring and I got this.
44:11I handed it back.
44:12No thanks.
44:13Keep such a luxury for your precious Isabella.
44:15Fine.
44:16Don't want it?
44:16Then it's garbage.
44:17Arthur's face twisted with anger.
44:19He snatched the clip and threw it in the trash.
44:21Vivian, Arthur, and I picked that out together.
44:23It's the thought that counts.
44:24She held out a pink lease dress.
44:25Oh right, since you're moving in with us in a couple of days, I picked out this dress
44:28for you.
44:29Please accept it.
44:29I laughed out of sheer anger.
44:31No one gets married in a dress like that.
44:33Looking at Isabella's smug face, I finally understood why they came.
44:36They wanted to put me in my place.
44:37I told you, our engagement is off.
44:39If you two are done, get out.
44:40Vivian, stop talking nonsense.
44:41You should try it on.
44:42Neither took me seriously.
44:43Isabella grabbed my arm, trying to pull me toward the dressing room.
44:46Get lost.
44:47Don't touch me.
44:48I shoved her hand off.
44:49I barely used any force.
44:50But Isabella threw herself backward onto the floor, her eyes welling up.
44:54I'm sorry, Vivian.
44:55I just wanted you to try on the dress.
44:57Arthur's face darted me.
44:58He shoved me back hard.
45:00Vivian, Isabella spent days picking that dress for you.
45:02You're a jealous, vicious woman.
45:04No wonder nobody wants you.
45:05Have fun dying alone.
45:06He picked Isabella up and stormed out.
45:07As they left, Isabella looked back over his shoulder and flashed me a triumphant smirk.
45:14The scene reminded me of how they first met.
45:17Back then, Isabella was an unacknowledged, illegitimate daughter.
45:20At a party, her older half-sister humiliated her, slapping her and forcing her to kneel after an accidental wine
45:27spill.
45:27Unable to stand the bullying, Arthur stepped in.
45:31From then on, he constantly looked after Isabella under the guise of pity.
45:37I believed him until the day Isabella was forced to marry Sebastian and Arthur crashed the wedding to steal her
45:44away.
45:45That was when I realized Isabella had already stolen his heart.
45:49My wedding to Sebastian was on New Year's Day.
45:51The night before, I went to Times Square alone.
45:55Every year before this, Arthur had taken me for the countdown and a midnight kiss.
46:00This year, I went alone.
46:02But when I reached our usual spot, it was blocked off.
46:05A velvet rope and a guard stood where we used to stand.
46:08Beyond it, the lounge Arthur once took me to was lit up and packed with guests.
46:12I wasn't on the list.
46:13As I stood there, I overheard two women nearby.
46:16Mr. Wood really went all out.
46:17He rented the entire VIP lounge and had it redecorated for her.
46:20I know.
46:21If I were Mrs. Wood, I'd be crying tears of joy.
46:23That's nothing.
46:24He even offended a mafia prince for her and made a prominent heir to just settle for being his mistress.
46:28I'd do anything for a man that good.
46:30A self-mocking smile crossed my face.
46:33Just as I turned to leave, a familiar voice called out from behind.
46:37Vivian.
46:38I turned around.
46:39Arthur and Isabella were standing just a short distance away.
46:45She ran over to me, holding a glass of champagne.
46:47Vivian, are you here for the ball drop too?
46:50Arthur was still angry about yesterday and gave me a harsh glare.
46:53Isabella held up her glass, waving it at me.
46:56I'm so sorry, Vivian.
46:58Arthur booked the whole rooftop tonight.
47:01Here, you can have this drink.
47:03No thanks.
47:05I took a step back, refusing to let her frame me again.
47:08Besides, I had no interest in using second-hand things, whether it was a drink or a man.
47:13Arthur's face darkened, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
47:16The great Miss Corlan is too good for our things anyway.
47:19Ignore her, Isabella.
47:21Let's go.
47:22He pulled her towards the building entrance.
47:25As soon as they left, a butler in a sharp suit approached me.
47:29Miss Vivian, the young master asked me to give you this.
47:33I looked at the object in surprise.
47:35It was a dark silver metal rose.
47:37The petals were sharp as blades, and deep blue diamonds were embedded at the base.
47:40Engraved on the stem was my name, Vivian.
47:43It was the most beautiful gift I had ever seen.
47:46I didn't want to hide it in a drawer, so I placed it on my nightstand.
47:50The next morning, the maids woke me early to do my makeup and dress me in my wedding gown.
47:55Looking in the mirror, it finally felt real.
47:58I was getting married.
48:00I was nervous, but I took a deep breath.
48:02I had made my choice, and I was going to see it through.

48:12But it wasn't Sebastian who stepped out.
48:14It was Arthur.
48:19I stared in disbelief as Arthur strode towards me.
48:23Seeing me in a white wedding gown, his face twisted in disgust.
48:26Vivian, who told you to wear that?
48:28Isabella will be upset.
48:30Go change before she notices.
48:32My temper flared at his sheer arrogance.
48:35Arthur, I've told you a dozen times our engagement is cancelled.
48:38I am not marrying you today.
48:40My husband will be here soon, so get lost.
48:44Arthur scoffed.
48:45Cut the act.
48:47Who else would marry you besides me?
48:49Just behave, and I'll buy you whatever you want.
48:52I rolled my eyes.
48:53The man was completely delusional.

49:15Well, well.

50:23No backing out.
50:24He sped off like he was afraid I'd change my mind.
50:26The Aston Martin roared down the driveway, almost hitting a stone pillar at the gate.
50:30I laughed.
50:31Watching the sports car disappear, I realized he wasn't as bad as the rumors said.
50:35He was almost cute.
50:36Right after Sebastian left, Arthur showed up.

52:20Over 20 black briefcases packed with cash, property deeds, and stock documents filled my living room wall to wall.
52:28My father took one look at the cases and shook his head.
52:31Sebastian? That lunatic?
52:33My mother added,
52:34His reputation is garbage.
52:36Once you go through with this, there's no turning back.
52:39But my mind was made up.

53:00Wow, Vivian.

53:08Her own family despised her.

53:13They kicked her out like a beggar.

53:40And now there it was on Isabella's finger.
53:42Isabella noticed me looking and raised her hand to flaunt it.
53:45Reminded by Isabella, Arthur pulled a cheap plastic hair claw from his pocket and tossed
53:50it at me as if he were doing me a massive favor.
53:53Here.
53:54For you.
53:57I looked at the tacky, chipped piece of plastic and laughed.
54:00Isabella got a diamond heirloom ring and I got this.
54:03I handed it back.
54:04No thanks.
54:05Keep such a luxury for your precious Isabella.
54:08Fine.
54:08Don't want it?

54:56No wonder nobody wants you.
54:57Have fun dying alone.

55:13At a party, her older half-sister humiliated her,
55:15slapping her and forcing her to kneel after an accidental wine spill.
55:20Unable to stand the bullying, Arthur stepped in.
55:24From then on, he constantly looked after Isabella under the guise of pity.
55:29I believed him until the day Isabella was forced to marry Sebastian
55:33and Arthur crashed the wedding to steal her away.
55:37That was when I realized Isabella had already stolen his heart.
55:41My wedding to Sebastian was on New Year's Day.
55:44The night before, I went to Times Square alone.
55:47Every year before this, Arthur had taken me for the countdown and a midnight kiss.
55:52This year, I went alone.
55:54But when I reached our usual spot, it was blocked off.
55:57A velvet rope and a guard stood where we used to stand.
56:00Beyond it, the lounge Arthur once took me to was lit up and packed with guests.
56:04I wasn't on the list.
56:06As I stood there, I overheard two women nearby.
56:08Mr. Wood really went all out.
56:09He rented the entire VIP lounge and had it redecorated for her.
56:13I know.
56:13If I were Mrs. Wood, I'd be crying tears of joy.
56:16That's nothing.
56:16He even offended a mafia prince for her and made a prominent heir just settle for being his mistress.
56:21I'd do anything for a man that good.
56:22A self-mocking smile crossed my face.
56:25Just as I turned to leave, a familiar voice called out from behind.
56:29Vivian.
56:30I turned around.
56:31Arthur and Isabella were standing just a short distance away.
56:37She ran over to me, holding a glass of champagne.
56:40Vivian, are you here for the ball drop too?
56:42Arthur was still angry about yesterday and gave me a harsh glare.
56:46Isabella held up her glass, waving it at me.
56:48I'm so sorry, Vivian.
56:50Arthur booked the whole rooftop tonight.
56:53Here, you can have this drink.
56:56No thanks.
56:57I took a step back, refusing to let her frame me again.
57:00Besides, I had no interest in using second-hand things, whether it was a drink or a man.
57:05Arthur's face darkened, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
57:08The great Miss Corlan is too good for our things anyway.
57:11Ignore her, Isabella.
57:13Let's go.
57:15He pulled her towards the building entrance.
57:18As soon as they left, a butler in a sharp suit approached me.
57:22Miss Vivian, the young master asked me to give you this.
57:25I looked at the object in surprise.
57:27It was a dark silver metal rose.
57:29The petals were sharp as blades, and deep blue diamonds were embedded at the base.
57:33Engraved on the stem was my name, Vivian.
57:36It was the most beautiful gift I had ever seen.
57:38I didn't want to hide it in a drawer, so I placed it on my nightstand.
57:42The next morning, the maids woke me early to do my makeup and dress me in my wedding gown.
57:48Looking in the mirror, it finally felt real.
57:50I was getting married.
57:52I was nervous, but I took a deep breath.
57:55I had made my choice, and I was going to see it through.
57:59Once I was ready, the groom's car arrived.
58:04But it wasn't Sebastian who stepped out.
58:06It was Arthur.
58:11I stared in disbelief as Arthur strode towards me.
58:15Seeing me in a white wedding gown, his face twisted in disgust.
58:19Vivian, who told you to wear that?
58:21Isabella will be upset.
58:22Go change before she notices.
58:24My temper flared at his sheer arrogance.
58:27Arthur, I've told you a dozen times our engagement is cancelled.
58:31I am not marrying you today.
58:32My husband will be here soon, so get lost.
58:36Arthur scoffed.
58:37Cut the act.
58:39Who else would marry you besides me?
58:41Just behave, and I'll buy you whatever you want.
58:44I rolled my eyes.
58:46The man was completely delusional.
58:48Before I could fire back, a deep, powerful engine roared down the street.
58:53Arthur glanced back, frowning.
58:55Is someone else in the Corleone family getting married today?
58:58A fleet of black Rolls Royces pulled up, led by a silver Aston Martin that stopped right
59:02in front of us.
59:03Sebastian was at the wheel.
59:05He looked at Arthur with a lazy grin.
59:07Well, well, if it isn't Mr. Wood trying to steal my bride again.
59:11Arthur froze.
59:12A sudden wave of panic hitting him.
59:14What do you mean, your bride?
59:16Sebastian opened his mouth, but I cut him off.
59:18I stepped forward and stared into his eyes.
59:21Arthur, he is my husband.
59:23He's the man I'm marrying today.
59:25I'm going to measure him because I feel he is the man I'm doing.
59:28I'm going up.
59:29He's the man I'm trying to be same.
59:31I'm fixing the man I'm trying to walk over with him.
59:31Ar conhereens.
59:32We all have to do thing.
59:32We as we know this.
59:32He will and people are not missing any journey.
59:33But there's only so many things you chose to do with the man.
59:33So can you tell me about me?
