00:00large fortune. And now I had suddenly taken control of a massive family trust when a
00:04devastating reality surfaced. My marriage was legally non-existent. The spouse on file for
00:09Elijah is Faith Fisher. Legally speaking, Ms. Ortiz, you are a single woman. The immense wealth
00:13I had planned to split with my husband would entirely belong to me. Everyone in the city's
00:18elite legal sphere believed I was irrevocably bound to Elijah. I will never turn my back on
00:22Jade. During our lavish ceremony, he had promised in front of senior partners, but a genuine
00:28certificate binding Elijah and Faith was processed the very next day. He had weaponized his professional
00:33authority to blindside me. Hey darling, the designer bag you wanted just dropped. Dropping by the firm
00:41to authorize some contracts, then heading straight to you. Love you. I went to the private aviation
00:45terminal to greet him. Through the automatic doors, I watched him slip his phone into his jacket and
00:50pull Faith, his supposed assistant, tightly against his chest, shielding her from the wind before
00:54pressing a passionate kiss to her lips. How he had protested outside my residence for a week when my parents
01:01wanted to move me to Europe. Please don't leave me. You belong with me. I cannot exist without you. We
01:10were
01:10inseparable for nearly three decades. I'm staying wherever she is. We're tying the knot the moment
01:16were of age. Now, he had covertly wedded someone else. Are you absolutely certain you want to sever
01:21your core representation and liquidate every asset, including the equity? Affirmative. Liquidate
01:27everything. Within hours, I executed binding agreements. A massive portion of my portfolio
01:34converted to cash. We will finalize the entire process within a week. The remaining equity was
01:40earmarked for a competitor out of state. Elijah, your deception and cruelty will terminate in exactly
01:47seven days.
01:55Where exactly did you vanish to? I dialed your number constantly. I've been pacing for hours. Do
02:00you realize the anxiety you caused me? I despise it when you drop off the radar. Did you forget the
02:07strict security protocols I enforced the last time? Speak to me. Are you hoping I lock you down
02:13again? I visited the medical center. Darling, I realize you desperately want a baby, but your body
02:18simply cannot handle it. We exhausted our options. It's fine. I only need you. We don't require
02:24children to be complete. I despise watching you suffer. No more discussing babies, all right? I need to
02:33step out for a confidential call. Remain right here. Do not leave the premises and do not test my
02:37patience.
02:41Is your secretary genuinely expecting? Yes. First trimester. She cannot conceive, but the dynasty
02:45requires an heir. The senior partners are demanding results. You were the one who demanded to keep her
02:49around. You abused your medical body to ensure she remained barren, and you prevented a legitimate
02:53marriage filing. This is a specialized fertility concoction. Drink up. Obviously, I care for her.
02:59Otherwise, why would I have another woman carry a child for her? Why would I battle my own
03:02relatives to keep her safe? Her parents caused the fatal accident that killed my parents. I kept
03:06that buried. I handed her the world, except a real union and biological offspring. She possesses
03:11everything else, including my surname. And your secretary? Merely a vessel? She brings me
03:16tranquility. I feel completely relaxed around her. That is an experience Jade can never provide.
03:22Sounds like you intend to keep them both.
03:29Simus, can you squeeze me in for a procedure tomorrow? What exactly do you need? A termination.
03:40I'm fine. The room is just crowded.
03:44I instructed you to use the private clinic. This space is too risky. I cannot afford a media leak.
03:48I'm merely a subordinate. I don't share your elite status. This facility is economical, and I refuse to
03:53swander at your capital. Always demands absolute luxury. One of her accessories costs more than your
03:57annual salary. She lacks your empathy. You will reside at my family estate until the birth. The emerald I
04:02secured at the charity event will be set into your engagement ring. Did she appreciate the handbag
04:06you selected? Naturally. She is the mother of my heir. Legally speaking, I will keep her satisfied.
04:12Thank you for providing her with this child. The dynasty depends on it. Everything I accomplish is for our baby.
04:23Are you awake? Still upset with me? I dispatched a massive floral arrangement to the penthouse. Are you
04:27still fixated on the baby issue? I will instruct our legal division to process an adoption. You will be a
04:31mother soon. I swear it. I have lost all desire for a child.
04:37Listen to me carefully. If you proceed with this termination, given the severe scarring from
04:43prior procedures, you might permanently lose your fertility. Are you absolutely certain you want
04:47to do this? My mind is made up. Proceed with the operation.
04:59Not long after I regained consciousness, I received an anonymous text message. It pointed to an exclusive
05:04bridal boutique.
05:07You are my actual spouse. The firm's optics and the Ortiz accounts prevent me from throwing a massive
05:13public gala right now. But I desperately want to see you in a white gown tonight.
05:23It's far too extravagant. These pieces are astronomical. Don't be foolish. I cannot officially
05:29declare our status to the press yet, but I can certainly provide a private celebration. Allow me
05:34to spoil you. He's organizing a confidential ceremony for her tonight. Complete media blackout.
05:43She cannot reproduce any one anyway, so he managed the documentation flawlessly. Her certificate was
05:47a forgery from the start. She's merely occupying the scene. Keep your voice down. He genuinely cares
05:51for her. This entire charade is strictly to secure a biological successor. Every colleague I had trusted
05:57was part of the betrayal. I was actually the secret owner of the bridal boutique, having quietly
06:02purchased it during my university years as a place to design couture gowns. I watched Elijah stand
06:07beside Faith. Faith was wearing the wedding gown I had designed myself, a gown inspired by my first kiss
06:13with Elijah and named First Love. The bride looks absolutely magnificent. Congratulations on the milestone.
06:21Exchange the bands.
06:42Exchange the bands.
06:50Baby, please hear me out. This was merely a PR promo shoot, that's all. You despise being filmed,
06:56right? We needed strong optics for the firm's upcoming anniversary campaign. Her hands resemble yours closely
07:01enough for the tight shots. This entire setup was meant to be your surprise. The diamond is customized for
07:06your finger alone. Ms. Fisher, my wife is distressed. Explain the situation immediately. Otherwise,
07:11consider your employment at Garcia and parties terminated. Ms. Ortiz, this entire bridal arrangement
07:16is merely a production set for the commercial. I coordinated the logistics with our crisis
07:20management team. The promotional ad will air globally, exactly three days from today, on your
07:25anniversary. See, honey? It's all dedicated to you. Every action I take is meant to safeguard our mutual
07:30assets. I love you. That fact remains constant. You are the sole woman I will ever cherish.
07:35For a lifetime. I sincerely hope the Garcia family experiences eternal joy. I pray you conceive quickly.
07:45Faith!
07:52Faith! God, no! Faith, stay with me. Hold on. We're going to the medical center.
07:58The baby. Elijah. Protect our baby.
08:02Jade! I swore to you. We had zero romantic involvement. It was literally just a marketing
08:09campaign. Why do you refuse to trust me? What possessed you to cause this? Why did you ruin her life?
08:17Jade, he genuinely cares for you. He banished Faith to an overseas branch for seven years. He only wed her
08:25because the Garcia executive board demanded an heir. Exactly. He just wanted to spare you the anxiety.
08:33She endured the pregnancy in absolute secrecy. She is practically a martyr. What possesses you to strip away her entire
08:40existence?
08:45They held me responsible for the fallout. Condemned me for refusing to let a third party secure the
08:49Garcia dynasty's bloodline. Faith was transported to emergency. Elijah, despite minor scrapes,
08:54barricaded the surgical wing. Faith had bled heavily. The child couldn't be saved and her
08:58rebuctive organs required removal. Faith, I apologize so deeply. Banishing you overseas for the past decade
09:04was an unforgivable mistake. I shouldn't have ignored you. I deeply regret confusing your silent,
09:09selfless actions with supposed loyalty. I gave my devotion to the wrong woman. I genuinely believed
09:14it was her all along. From age five, I discovered his severe platelet deficiency. I volunteered my
09:19veins repeatedly, alarming my guardians. I sacrificed my vitality across three decades. My immune system
09:24deteriorated while he became an unstoppable reigning maker. My parents tried to move me to Europe. He
09:28thought his week-long protest made them let me stay. The truth was I had threatened to end my own
09:33life to strong-arm them. Now I achieved clarity. If I had known our partnership would shatter in
09:40something this grotesque, I would have stopped it before it began. Mr. Garcia and Mrs. Garcia celebrate
09:47their seventh wedding anniversary. Mrs. Garcia is incredibly blessed. The ultimate to display of
09:52high society romance. The ultimate matrimonial event returns.
09:59Jade, Elijah requires an emergency transfusion. Get to the medical center. Right now. My apologies,
10:06Mr. Garcia. I am neither his spouse nor his girlfriend. We are not even related. I possess zero
10:11obligation to rescue him. So, you finally comprehend the situation? Thanks to you. Now I am spared the
10:18hassle of filing for divorce. If he perishes tonight, perhaps I will drop by his memorial service. Jade, you act
10:24exactly like your late grandfather, the single human being I despised above all else.
10:30I didn't sleep that night. I spent it systematically sorting through everything connecting me to
10:37Elijah. I was completely unaware his devotion ran this deep. The type of devotion that forces a dominant
10:48partner to for forfeit everything, even his own life. Faith, congratulations. You successfully hauled my garbage
10:54to the curb. Jade, how dare leverage your family trust to rob the hospital's legal counsel in
11:12determining fate's unborn child? How dare you command them to carve out her reproductive organs? Mr. Garcia,
11:18Mrs. Ortez issued a direct threat. She promised that if I refused to perform the removal,
11:24the Ortez trust would ensure my medical license was permanently revoked and my entire family exiled
11:28from the state. How could you do this? How could you weaponize your wealth and influence to destroy
11:34her? When exactly did you transform into this monster? Elijah, it is merely an organ. With enough
11:40capital, I can purchase her entire existence. Transport her to the surgical room. Extract her uterus
11:46immediately. Elijah, what exactly did you just command? Debts cannot remain unpaid intentlessly.
11:52You stole Faith's infant. You stole her biological future. Now you must compensate her. Once you
11:57surrender exactly what she lost, I will adore you again. Just like the old days.
12:10Hush baby, please stop weeping. It kills me when you cry. Jade, seeing those tears fall is thrilling.
12:18It makes this entire dynamic so incredibly intoxicating. Mr. Garcia, Mrs. Ortez underwit a
12:25severe uterine procedure quite recently. Is this extraction truly mandatory?
12:33A uterine scrape? A surgical scrape could be required if there are severe conditions, but a full
12:37extraction extract her uterus and present the surgical proof to Faith. She hasn't stopped weeping.
12:42I refuse to permit her to ache for one more second. Execute the procedure now. Mr. Garcia,
12:46we have to wait for the hospital ethics committee. I am the managing partner of Garcia and Partners,
12:50and I control this hospital's malproxy defense. Jade is already unconscious under my proxy. Do it
12:56immediately. You almost died from exsanguination. Faith supplied the transfusion. Jade, you are
13:03permanently indebted to her. Am I clear? Stop. I do not expect any gratitude from Ms. Ortez. I know
13:07she's your primary client. However, a massive volume of my plasm flows through her veins. Provided
13:11preserving her existence requires draining my absolute limit. I do it. Jade, you owe Faith. You are going to
13:16compensate her by surrendering your identity and public standing. Jade, what is wrong with you? You disregard
13:20my survival and Faith's well-being. Elijah, am I genuinely the one in debt? You are the person in
13:24debt here! Elijah, I refuse to demand compensation. My only desire is your mutual happiness. I am
13:28willing to disappear permanently. Not everyone is going to keep indulging you, Ms. Ortiz. Mrs. Fisher
13:32literally bled for you. She waited here, petrified you might perish. You ought to bow down in gratitude.
13:37Your patriarch passed away. You possess zero remaining allies in this jurisdiction. Ms. Ortiz,
13:41the remaining buyers have arrived and finalized the transaction for the remaining Ortiz holdings.
13:48Prepare 30 billion. I will sell you all my Garcia equity. Done. Seven years ago,
13:56I married Faith. Yet to shield my spouse, I enlisted Jade's assistance.
14:03That is how the rumors started. Allow me to clarify. My actual partner, my sole partner, is Faith.
14:22Jade, return to the medical center immediately. Faith's condition is deteriorating. You are assigned
14:27to monitor her recovery. Didn't you already extracted my uterus for her? Are you demanding my upper limbs
14:33next? Stop manipulating the situation. Faith endured absolute torture due to your actions. She miscarried
14:40my heir. Do you even grasp how that destroys a parent losing her child? Elijah, I understand
14:46perfectly. If you comprehend the situation, return to Nurse Faith. Do that and I will pardon your behavior.
14:53We can resume our routine. I adore you. You hold my exclusive devotion. Suppose you ever ruin things with
15:00your primary client? I promise to love you, to honor you, to cherish you. I jump off the roof of
15:06the
15:06firm's headquarters without a second thought. Elijah, we are done.
15:17Miss Ortiz, how may I assist you today? First, back Tyler Reed's brother for CEO of the Reed Group with
15:23all my liquidate capital. Second, leak everything about Eric Ramos' offshore scandal to the regulatory
15:28boards. File a $5 billion lawsuit against Eric. Finally, the documentation connecting the old
15:33mister to his child and daughter-in-law's deadly collision. Those documents reside within my late
15:39grandfather's vault. Hand it to the police in a formal evidence package. Today.
15:45I understand your timeline is aggressive. I have half the capital ready. The rest will hit your
15:50accounts within a week. Are you sure about this? Once I acquire those Garcia voting shares,
15:54I take everything. Elijah will never escape the pit I am excavating.
16:00Jade, stay. Let me protect you. Just a little longer, please.
16:05Jackson, congratulations. From today on, the legal dynasty hierarchy in this city will be reduced to
16:10just the Meyers firm.
16:24I am exhausted. You must treat me to a luxurious meal.
16:30Mr. Garcia, your spouse has regained consciousness.
16:33Jade.
16:36I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, Elijah. Let's just sign the divorce papers.
16:40I don't have a uterus anymore. I'm the one who caused all the legal and personal problems between
16:45you and Miss Ortiz. I can't stay by your side anymore.
16:50Faith, you haven't done anything wrong. It is me. I've pampered the wrong client for all these years.
16:56Jade's uterus has already been extracted as punishment. I will provide for you indefinitely.
17:01So, you don't care about her anymore?
17:04Two weeks passed. The legal news cycle was dominated by massive scandals involving his
17:08closest partners. Tyler had been violently ousted from his firm's boardroom by his older brother,
17:13and Eric had just been indicted for corporate fraud.
17:15Elijah, where is Jade? I spent 14 days hunting for her whereabouts without success.
17:20If she's not at the penthouse, where else would she be? I've frozen her out. She wouldn't dare go
17:25anywhere. Elijah, Jade is not at the penthouse. I attempted numerous contact methods,
17:30yet her profiles are entirely deleted. I only just learned you were still here.
17:36Elijah, I just want you to rest. You've had so much blood transfused.
17:42Tyler, go to the Ortiz estate. Utilize the firm's private investigators to find out what happened.
17:50Elijah, Jade's entire existence in this city has been erased. She is missing. No, that is completely
17:58impossible. How could she abandon me?
18:06Elijah, allow me to accompany you. I will draft a public apology to Ms. Ortiz. I'll make her
18:12understand my medical sacrifice.
18:13Faith, wait for me here. I'll mobilize the firm's private investigators. Your presence
18:17is unnecessary. Observing you now will only trigger her legal defenses.
18:21Mrs. Ortiz, you've finally recognized your structural deficit. Had you remained,
18:26I would have zero choice but to ensure you met a fatal accident.
18:34Mr. Garcia, Ms. Ortiz's personal files are completely cleared out. There's an industrial
18:38incinerator on the terrace where a massive volume of items was burned. Why didn't anyone at this
18:41property notify me that my primary client was missing? But didn't the firm's PR department already
18:45broadcast your official separation? Mr. Garcia, we ran the aviation logs. Ms. Ortiz cleared federal
18:55airspace for Y country exactly 14 days ago. Furthermore, the entirety of the Ortiz trust
19:00portfolio has been liquidated. The prime commercial real estate was transferred to a competitor.
19:04I had left federal jurisdiction? How could I bypass his legal surveillance? He snatched the device
19:10and dialed my number repeatedly. But every attempt hit a disconnected line. He attempted to pull my
19:15digital profiles only to find every account legally scrubbed from the servers. He rushed to the
19:20Ortiz family compound, but the gates were locked. He then sped to the Ortiz Holdings headquarters only
19:24to find the lobby signage already replaced by a rival out-of-state conglomerate. The corporate
19:28acquisitions were already legally binding. He tried contacting my extended relatives, but they had
19:32vanished behind airtight non-disclosure agreements. No, we haven't seen Jade. We have absolutely zero contact with her.
19:43The massive capital that had been backing my promotion track was actually Jade's. She
19:47transferred every cent to my rival siblings, which is why I just got permanently exiled from
19:50the executive committee. When you orchestrated that fake bridal shoot, Jade systematically dismantled
19:54the safety nets of everyone who had ever relied on her trust fund. Silas lost his medical license.
19:57Tyler was ousted from the Reed Group. Eric is facing federal indictment. She pulled her capital and our
20:01respective families threw us to the wolves. We were her trusted inner circle. We actively maintained
20:06your reputation containment strategy, shielding your secret marriage from her. She despises all of us.
20:10She hates me and she hates my entire network! Mr. Garcia, we pulled the surveillance feeds.
20:15Before clearing airspace, her final terrestrial meeting was with Jackson inside a secure facility
20:19across from our headquarters. Elijah, aren't you filing your motions a bit too late? Your marriage
20:23certificate was a forgery and your primary client finally audited the paperwork. Jackson, this is
20:26protected attorney-client privilege between Jade and me. Where did she relocate? I know exactly where she is.
20:30She relocated outside your jurisdiction and won't be returning. Additionally, regarding your schedule,
20:33tomorrow marks the Garcia and Partners emergency board meeting. The Garcia board meeting? How does
20:37that concern your firm? Elijah, years ago, when you faked your vows, you transferred a massive block of
20:41Garcia voting equity to Jade to secure her loyalty. Half a month ago, she sold that entire block to me
20:45for 30 billion. Consequently, you are currently positioned to be voted out of your own managing
20:48partner seat. No, this is legally impossible. Jade would never sabotage my career. Jackson, did you
20:53coerce her into signing? Jade sacrificed her physical safety for your survival. She endured agonizing
20:57metal procedures, keeping the record sealed from you. Elijah, those 30 billion in voting shares even scratched the
21:01surface of the biological capital Jade spent on you. Elijah stared at the files. There were dozens
21:05of hospital logs. I was leaning over his bed, the IV still taped to my pale arm. I had been
21:10his organ
21:11donor all along, and Jackson had weaponized the truth. Elijah pulled the billing trail. Every document
21:16was authorized by Jade's signature. The pieces began to violently fall into place. The patriarch had
21:21fabricated the narrative, claiming Faith was his his savior, but it was Jade. It had always been Jade.
21:45Grandfather, what exactly are you in executing in my firm's private state? Please let me file a
21:50sworn affidavit. I can elaborate. Raver, I swear on my life, I can explain. Elijah, no depositions are
21:57necessary. I made the arrangement clear decades ago. Faith is my personal asset, and that is final.
22:03So, you acquired her services before you ordered me to fake a marriage with her?
22:07Elijah, I was coerced under duress. I did it for your career. Your rival partners were eyeing your
22:12managing partner's feet. Your grandfather told me, if I service his private needs, the Garcia
22:15legal dynasty would be your- My rival partners? Those incompetent associates? And you assumed I
22:19required you to prostit yourself to secure my boardroom votes? She is merely a subordinate liability.
22:23Faith belonged to me years ago. She is a disposable plaything. If you refuse to maintain the optic of
22:27her as your wife, she can rot in the estate's servant quarter. Never! I demand to maintain my
22:31status with Elijah! He violated my consent when I was 19! He utilized his firm's leverage to silence me!
22:37You orchestrated the entire operation, didn't you? You engineered the fraudulent marriage filing?
22:42And you mandated that Faith slip the permanent sterilization narcotics into Jade's drinks?
22:47Faith was already pregnant with my child back then. I required a male heir, so I authorized her
22:52little scheme to eliminate Jade's fertility. You malicious bastard! You signed a non-disclosure
22:58agreement promising you'd never tell Elijah! And the fatal car crash that killed my parents?
23:03The police evidence package Jade just submitted to the federal prosecutor confirms
23:07you orchestrated the collision to seize total control of the firm. I will ensure both of your
23:11legacies burned to the ground. The firm's legacy shattered. Managing partner's wife exposed in abuse
23:23scandal. It was the patriarch who ruined my life! He knew I wanted your wealth! That night when I was
23:3019,
23:30he summoned me to his private office, promised to fund my career, but instead he destroyed my consent!
23:41You genuinely care for me? Just because you claim affection, does that mean I owe you reciprocal
23:44protection? You annihilated my entire foundation with Jade. Tell me, what exact damages should I
23:49extract to make you pay? Faith, my conflict council has already expedited our annulment filing.
23:54Elijah, I know you still want Mrs. Ortiz as your primary client! I won't fight her for the
23:58managing partner's spouse title. If you want her to be the public Mrs. Garcia, then I'll quietly remain
24:02your undocumented shadow, operating behind the scenes. Is that acceptable? You've been servicing
24:08the patriarch since 10 years ago. You manipulated him into blocking my official union with Jade.
24:13You engineered the fraudulent marriage filing, and you supplied the permanent sterilization narcotics
24:17disguised as fertility treatments. No, no! It was the patriarch! It was entirely his directive!
24:22I begged him to reconsider, but he wanted to completely liquidate Jade's biological future!
24:29Faith, throughout the last 10 years, you have been executing a systematic conspiracy against my
24:33firm and Jade. Even the collision during the PR shoot, you funded the hit. No, your target was Jade,
24:37but the contractor misidentified the coordinates, and you utilized your own injuries to bury the
24:41financial trail. Elijah, please let me draft a full confession. I adored you so deeply. I only
24:47engineered this because I am devoted to your empire. You paid to have Jade executed, did you not?
24:51Therefore, you will rot in a federal penitentiary. Elijah, I adore you! I really do!
24:55Get out of my sight. Don't pollute my airspace with your perjury. Elijah, do you remember when
24:59you mandated my checkup at the Bluck facility to avoid media leaks? That identical day, Jade was
25:03occupying the surgical wing. She authorized the termination of your heirs. Faith, you're committing
25:07perjury! Jade could never have conceived! You lacked the clearance to see her, but I bypassed the privacy
25:12protocols. The surgical chief, Silas, possesses the complete medical file. If you suspect fraud,
25:18subpoena him. Elijah, I've always prioritized your career, but from the moment we were associates,
25:24you've only hoarded assets for Jade. I'm just a low-level subordinate in the Garcia hierarchy.
25:30If I didn't deploy hostile takeovers of this magnitude, you would have completely ignored
25:34reviewed my portfolio. Such is zero justification for destroying Jade's body. She was the core of my
25:39existence. You and the patriarch deserve maximum criminal sentencing. Yet she will categorically
25:43refuse to grant you legal pardon. She'll never forgive for weaponizing her trust. Indeed. She will
25:47never drop the charges.
25:54No matter how many civil suits you file against me, you can never officially divorce me. The
25:59patriarch will block the motion. The collateral I provided him, he'll make sure your inheritance
26:02remains tied to my status. I've testified I'm going to occupy your estate for the remainder of my
26:06existence, assuming he fails to secure my immunity. Moving forward, the patriarch's veto power is
26:13terminated. Faith, our fraudulent union is legally dissolved. No! I am the legitimate Mrs. Garcia!
26:19Deliver her to the federal prosecutor's office tomorrow morning. And the hitman who drove the SUV
26:23submit the complete financial wire evidence and press maximum charges for attempted murder.
26:31Elijah, here's the authenticated medical dossier regarding Jade's pregnancy.
26:35Jade actually, she was carrying my biological successors as twins. Elijah, after you weaponized
26:40your medical proxy to forbid Jade from pursuing IVF, she convectily secured my service at the public
26:44clinic. She drafted non-disclosure agreements begging me not to brief you. She endured multiple
26:48grueling cycles of oviation stimulation, invasive IVF extractions, and the physical trauma she
26:51absorbed is something your corporate mind can't even begin to quantify. She desperately wanted to secure
26:55an air. She always maintained that her loyalty to you was flawless, but delivering a child was the
26:59ultimate premium asset she wanted to provide. How many agonizing injections did she have to
27:03process? She submitted to over 78 painful needle strikes just to stabilize the hormone levels.
27:07Every single appointment. She's terrified of clinical pain. She's always avoided medical procedures.
27:13When the embryo transfer proved successful, she was euphoric. She stated she wanted to present
27:18through ultrasound as your anniversary surprise. After the senior Ortiz passed away and the propate
27:23hearings concluded, you flew overseas for that merger. However, Elijah, the late Mr. Ortiz
27:27estate trust, stipulated that the massive assets were designed to be distributed to both of you
27:31jointly. Jade required a verified marriage certificate to execute the transcript. Elijah, due to the severe
27:36uterine extraction, Jade will never be able to conceive again. To permanently sever all legal and
27:41biological ties with you, she deliberately surrendered her sole opportunity at motherhood.
27:54Mr. Garcia, the Patriarch has been detained by federal agents. Is the indictment accurate?
27:58Did my grandfather genuinely orchestrated the assassination of my parents?
28:01It was an engineering failure.
28:05Every document you've reviewed is entirely accurate. I've been locked in a hostile corporate war with
28:10that old bastard Ortiz family my entire career. Surrendering was never an option.
28:15So you systematically destroyed my entire future with Jade? You sacrificed my parents' lives just to
28:20secure a boardroom victory against her grandfather? Affirmative.
28:23I refuse to let you merge your assets with Jade. I would never permit a female from the Ortiz
28:27bloodline to inherit the Garcia legacy. Faith's strategic proposals aligned perfectly with my
28:33objectives. Seven years prior, out of profound guilt, I completely reassigned my equity to Jade.
28:38And today, that stock has been entirely absorbed by the Myers family. You forced me into that fraudulent
28:42filing with Faith, and I demanded all the equity in the firm. Now, the Garcia dynasty is destroyed.
28:47What did you say?! Jade has been manipulating the firm's voting stock for all these years.
28:50You personally dismodeled your own legal empire. You arrogant fool! Retrieve those assets
28:54immediately! They embody my entire legacy! And you handed it entirely to the Ortiz family?!
28:58Elijah, I should have eliminated her years ago! Allowing this disaster to breathe has ruined our
29:02dynasty! You can stay in federal confinement and answer for my parents' murder.
29:06That old man from the Ortiz family was sitting comfortably in his private nurching suite.
29:10He died shortly after, and yes, I had my operatives take care of him. I orchestrated his medical failure.
29:14My grandfather did not perish from sickness. He was assassinated?
29:21His condition had worsened, but as per the medical board, he possessed the capacity to live for
29:25another 24 months. The Garcia patriarch has formally admitted to tampering with his medical equipment,
29:29so the Ortiz family needs an executor to return and handle it.
29:30You don't need to expose yourself to them again.
29:32For all these years, my grandfather protected me from their firm. I will return to New York.
29:37Grandpa, I regret it. I regret submitting to firm. I deeply regret loving him.
29:42I'm sorry, our children, the twins-
29:45My legal counsel is still waiting for me at the federal courthouse. Let me go.
29:48Elijah, there's no need for theatrical gestures.
29:52Ms. Ortiz, there's been a vehicle tailing our route.
29:55Ignore the interference. Just keep driving.
29:58Elijah attempted to breach the lobby, but I instructed the security detail to deny his entry.
30:02Thank you, Jackson.
30:03Jade, you can drop the formalities and address me formally. We were law school peers after all.
30:07Understood. Over the coming week, I might need to rely heavily on your firm's protection,
30:10Mr. Jackson.
30:11It is zero trouble.
30:12Two weeks later, the federal sentencing for the patriarch's murder, her conviction, was finalized.
30:16Elijah caused a massive disruption outside the hotel for several consecutive days,
30:19desperately attempting to bypass security. The entire financial district of New York was consuming
30:22the spectacle, with aggressive reporters swarming the perimeter. In the end,
30:25Jackson utilized his executive authority, suggesting they evacuate through the hotel's private rooftop
30:28heel-a-pad.
30:29Fine, let's proceed.
30:36Elijah.
30:38Jade, grant me an audience. Please do not abandon me. I've legally annulled my ties with Faith. Please,
30:44just one final meeting.
30:46I possess zero interest in the Malpactis between you and Faith. I merely want to officially state,
30:51our association is terminated. There is absolutely no justification for this.
30:55My existence is meaningless without you. Allow me to submit the evidence and explain everything.
30:59The moment I ceased loving you, any explanation or evidence you present became entirely meaningless.
31:04Let's formally conclude this.
31:05Faith has historically been the patriarch's covert asset. Elijah audited the files,
31:09annulled the fraudulent union, and engineered her complete legal and social destruction using
31:13his remaining leverage. You didn't need to brief me on their fallout.
31:16I refuse to let you carry that burden in ignorance. The primary catalyst for Elijah's betrayal was the
31:19patriarch planting falsified donor logs, convincing Elijah that Faith was the one supplying his life,
31:24saving transfusions all these years. Jackson,
31:26do you understand the irony? Yet my fear of Elijah dying overrode my own survival instinct today.
31:30I am immune to that fear.
31:35Elijah collapsed on the tarmac. His physical system and psychological
31:38resilience completely shattered. After three days and nights of emergency stabilization,
31:42his vitals barely registered survival. Standing over the sterile bed,
31:45Colton delivered another crushing blow. Elijah, that bridal boutique where you staged
31:49that PR stunt with Faith, it was legally owned by Jade.
31:54Elijah?
31:55This asset belongs to Jade.
31:57I hold the deed now. Mrs. Ortiz liquidated the property and transferred ownership. These are the
32:01original design schematics Jade personally drafted. I assumed you would eventually come
32:04searching for them. He compared me to a jellyfish in the ocean, delicate yet capable of stinging.
32:09He praised my smile, so I drafted this jellyfish-inspired silhouette for our official ceremony.
32:14He criticized my diet today, claiming I was too fragile for skipping meals.
32:16I intend to draft a midnight black gown adorned with chocolate motifs to overwhelm his senses.
32:20First love. This commemorates the exact moment he first kissed me. I engineered this specifically
32:25for him. Faith fully aware the boutique was my territory manipulating Elijah into utilizing
32:30that specific location. Faith wore the wedding gown I had designed and married Elijah in that
32:34fraudulent ceremony. You are a master at engineering absolute devastation. Jade, I committed the ultimate
32:41betrayal by ignoring your evidence. Elijah had utilized every legal mechanism to annihilate Faith,
32:46securing her federal imprisonment, and ensuring her daily torment behind bars. Elijah utilized his
32:51vast investigative network to track me for five agonizing years. The sole piece of verified
32:56intelligence he finally received materialized on the front page of a premier financial journal.
33:00The heiress of the Ortiz family and managing partner of the Myers Group,
33:03Jackson, announced their official union.
33:18Jade, I finally located your jurisdiction.
33:21Elijah, this is my husband's professional domain.
33:23No, I absolutely refuse to let you formalize a union with anyone else. You are permanently bound to me.
33:28I've scoured every continent for you. I only resided overseas for a single fictional year.
33:32For the past four years, I've operated entirely within New York. These past five years,
33:35I've audited the entire situation. This represents 30 billion. It's the exact capital I secured when
33:40I liquidated my voting shares in your firm. Jade, I am officially begging you, reinstate our marriage.
33:46I am fully refunding the transaction, and now our ledgers are perfectly balanced.
33:51My intention was never to commit malfrocted against your soul. I love you. I was completely
33:54ignorant that you were the one secretly supplying my life-saving transfusions.
33:57I am permanently revoking my obligation to save you. Manage your own survival. Cease all
34:01investigative efforts regarding my location. I am committing the remainder of my timeline to Jackson.
34:05Jackson's and my monumental wedding proceeded according to the scheduled itinerary. As the
34:09ceremony commenced, the massive digital screens illuminated, broadcasting 999 handwritten
34:14confessions. You finally authorized my proposal. I am infinitely grateful you are legally joining
34:18my life. I vow to provide you the most flawless, uncorrupted devotion. The timeline began to
34:23aggressively rewind, scrolling backward until the massive displays revealed the very first document,
34:28dated 17 years prior. It was a meticulously document unspoken loyalty that had survived 17
34:34brutal years of silence.
34:38Mr. Myers, an individual is threatening to execute a fatal drop from the estate's highest rooftop.
34:43We have identified the subject as Mr. Garcia.
34:44Jade, my team will neutralize this interference.
34:47Jackson, the formal filing will proceed exactly as contracted. Can we implement a 20 minute delay?
34:54Are you officially seeking termination?
34:56I cannot maintain my existence without your presence. I experienced that exact identical
35:00symptom when I witnessed you kissing Faith at the terminal. I genuinely believe that surviving your
35:04loss was a biological impossibility. I burned every day tracking your coordinates. Had I realized you
35:08were operating within New York, I would have extracted you immediately. Does your memory retain the
35:11specific luxury restaurant where we celebrate our fraudulent anniversaries? Elijah, there is a specific
35:157th anniversary package I deposited for you seven years ago. It remains securely in their vault.
35:19Retrieve it. Jackson is waiting to finalize our marriage filing. The 30 billion has been refunded.
35:24Moving forward, our ledgers are perfectly balanced and we are officially concluding our interactions forever.
35:30Elijah, this is the exact package Ace to hold instructed us and definitely until you request it.
35:33Secured within the frozen chamber was a mass of coaxinated tissue. Two microscopic, utterly unrecognizable
35:38biological forms.
35:41On the evening of our union, I received a verified alert confirming that Elijah had transferred the
35:45entire 30 billion into the pediatric charity foundation managed by the Myers Group. Yes, my partner.
35:52Jade, regardless of Elijah's refusal to accept reality, I will never under any circumstances
35:57release your hand. I will dedicate myself to loving you. Later that midnight, he launched himself from
36:03the precipice of the original Garcia dynasty headquarters. The following morning, the financial district was
36:07saturated with breaking alerts detailing his spectacular suicide. The national headlines were dominated by
36:12the catastrophic end of his legal empire. Elijah, what specific floral variety do you believe I embody?
36:17Honestly, Jade, you are a red rose, delicate yet heavily armed with thorns. I am the only force capable of
36:22handling you.
