He saved me as housekeeper and her as wife

TVTranscript
00:00He was in Dallas for work. I hadn't told him about the mild anemia diagnosis or that I nearly
00:04passed out at the bus stop that morning. We had been married six years. I believe that once his
00:09company stabilized, we would move out of our old apartment and prepare a real room for our child.
00:16Out of nowhere, a child's stroller ran into my stomach.
00:24The pain shot through me immediately.
00:28Mom!
00:31Caleb, you're running around again.
00:37Are you okay? My phone. Help me call my husband.
00:44Name?
00:45The pinned contact, Ethan.
00:51I'll have my husband come handle this.
00:55Ethan, Caleb bumped into a pregnant woman at Target. Get over here right now. Forget the
00:59meeting. It looks serious. Be here in ten minutes.
01:01Ten minutes later, a familiar figure strode in.
01:04Ethan, my husband.
01:05Caleb, where did you get hurt?
01:07She was in the way!
01:11Our eyes met. He froze completely.
01:17You know her?
01:19I don't. Maybe she saw me in a finance interview.
01:22I had slept in the same bed with him for six years, and he stood beside another woman and
01:26said he didn't know me.
01:27I'm sorry. This is my husband's card. We'll cover any medical bills.
01:31Maya.
01:32He realized his mistake. He'd let it slip.
01:49Maya.
01:57I handled today badly
02:03The apartment is downtown
02:05Safe and nice
02:06Perfect for your pregnancy
02:08I'll get you a private OB, a nutritionist, and a housekeeper
02:11$20,000 a month, no more Target
02:12Ethan, how much have you been lying to me about?
02:16I'm very tired today
02:17We'll talk tomorrow
02:20Six years I had never checked his phone
02:22I thought trust was fundamental
02:24But now I picked it up
02:25I went into the contacts and searched for my own name
02:28No Maya
02:29I searched my number
02:30The contact label that popped up was Housekeeper
02:36I forced myself to keep looking
02:38The Instagram account was still logged in
02:40Ethan's alt account followed Vanessa
02:41Vanessa's profile was clean, elegant, and respectable
02:43Maya, give me the phone
02:45You're pregnant
02:46You can't get this emotional
02:51Who am I?
02:53Maya, that was just so people wouldn't misunderstand
02:56Other people?
02:58Or your wife?
03:00Maya, stop it!
03:06Ethan?
03:07Do you know Ethan has a wife?
03:12Of course I do
03:14Because I'm his legal wife
03:15Maya, right?
03:16I know about you
03:17During the years Ethan was down on his luck
03:19You kept him company
03:20You're quite pathetic
03:21But you didn't really think that keeping a man company
03:23Through a few tough years would turn you into his wife, did you?
03:25Shut up
03:25Vanessa, I'll handle this
03:27You better handle it clean
03:29Ethan, Caleb has a school tour tomorrow
03:31I don't want the house turned upside down
03:33Because of an outsider
03:35If she wants money
03:37Give it to her
03:37Just don't let her call me again
03:44Maya, listen to me explain
03:46We were never registered
03:47We were never registered, right?
03:49Maya, the situation was complicated
03:51Debts, frozen assets
03:52I couldn't just register casually
03:54So you lied to me?
03:56I didn't want to lie forever, Vanessa
03:59Four years ago
04:00You married her while I was paying your credit card bells?
04:03Maya, I love you
04:04I always have
04:05But I promised to marry Vanette years ago
04:06Her father asked me before he died
04:07She waited
04:08I can't let her down
04:08So you destroyed me
04:09You made me play a fake wife for six years
04:11Let your real wife humiliate me
04:12And made my child a shameful secret before he's even born
04:17Maya, I know you can't accept this now
04:20Things are already like this
04:22Vanessa won't divorce
04:23Caleb can't be without a home
04:25You can still have everything
04:26Just don't ask for the title
04:31Get a good rest
04:33The child is innocent
04:35I bent over and retched for a while
04:37Only bitter acid came up
04:42Six years
04:43And I was nothing but a joke
04:44I knew this child was innocent
04:46But I also knew that once I kept it
04:48Ethan would trap me for life
04:50Weekends
04:52Checks
04:53Condos
04:53Private doctors
04:54He would place me in another beautiful cage
04:57Nameless
04:59I opened the booking page
05:01A women's health clinic
05:04The soonest they had was tomorrow at 1.40 in the afternoon
05:11I'm sorry
05:12Tomorrow night, 7pm
05:14I booked the whole restaurant
05:14Trust me, you'll love the gift
05:24It's best not to go back alone
05:35I called an Uber
05:41Inside are your discharge papers
05:43Post-op instructions
05:44And itemized bill
05:45Don't drink tonight
05:46Avoid strenuous activity
05:47If you have a normal bleeding or fever
05:49Go to the ER immediately
05:50Thank you
05:57Maya, why are you here?
06:00Go sit by the nurse's station
06:02Mommy will be right there
06:05Vanessa, what do you want to do?
06:11Name your price
06:12A house?
06:14Cash?
06:14Or is the money Ethan gives you every month not enough
06:17But don't you dare give my son a bastard sibling
06:19Move
06:19Don't worry
06:20No one will take your son's things
06:25Ethan!
06:32Maya, what are you doing?
06:38I just wanted to talk nicely
06:40She suddenly pushed me
06:42You aren't feeling well today
06:43Just go home
06:44Don't make a scene at the hospital
06:49At seven o'clock
06:50Don't forget
06:55You look terrible
06:59Where is the gift?
07:01Once the baby is born
07:02I can take you both
07:02To stay by the lake for a while
07:04You and the baby
07:05Will never need anything again
07:08Maya
07:09I know the title
07:10Makes you feel wronged
07:11But believe me
07:12I will take care of you
07:13And our child
07:20What is this?
07:25You said you prepare to give me
07:26I brought you one too
07:27Open it
07:31Open it
07:31Open it
07:51Maya
07:53What did you do?
07:56How could you do this?
07:57That was my child too
07:58I said I would take care of you
08:00I gave you a house
08:00Money, doctors
08:01What more do you want?
08:02I wanted a husband
08:03Who dared to acknowledge me in Target
08:05I wanted someone
08:06Who would help me up first
08:07In the hospital
08:08I wanted a man
08:09Who didn't save me
08:09As housekeeper
08:10In his phone
08:16You lost the right
08:17To call yourself a father
08:18Before this child
08:19Ever had one
08:21So you're getting back at me
08:23Using the child
08:24To get back at me
08:26Ethan
08:27Are you only just now
08:28Feeling the pain?
08:30Then remember it well
08:31Because I've been in pain
08:33For six years
08:35Maya
08:36Don't go
08:37Let go
08:46Maya
08:47What have I ever done
08:49To you?
08:52Vanessa
08:53Go back first
08:53You knew I had a child
08:55Knew Ethan had a family
08:56Why push us like this?
08:58If you want money
08:58I can give it
08:59If you want a house
09:00I can give that too
09:01But why bring this
09:02To a public place?
09:03Why make us laughing stocks?
09:05I just want to protect my son
09:06He's only five
09:07He shouldn't be dragged
09:08Into adults' mistakes
09:09Can your screens
09:10Project from my phone?
09:12Your employees
09:13Have already recorded so much
09:14One more clip won't hurt
09:16The manager
09:16Hooked up the gear
09:17Awkwardly
09:18The central screen
09:19Came to life
09:21The first video
09:22Was from the old apartment
09:23Six years ago
09:26The second screenshot
09:27Was a text from
09:28Ethan from back then
09:30The third set
09:32Was the transfer records
09:33From the past six years
09:34Six hundred dollars a month
09:36Maya
09:37Maya, that's enough
09:40It's not
09:44I didn't steal anyone's husband
09:46I didn't steal your husband
09:48Your husband stole six years
09:50Of my life
09:58Vanessa wanted to say something else
10:00But her phone started buzzing wildly
10:02The secretly filmed video
10:03Was already going viral online
10:16Maya
10:17Maya
10:27This time
10:28I didn't need him
10:29To acknowledge who I was
10:31I would let everyone know
10:33Exactly what they had stolen from me
10:40The taxi drove into the night
10:42The lights of the restaurant
10:43Grew smaller and smaller
10:44In the rearview mirror
10:53Are you sure you want to fight this
10:56I want him to pay the price
10:57All right, then we aren't just playing the emotional card
10:59First, fraud
11:00He led you to believe you were legally married for six years
11:02Second, intentional misrepresentation
11:04Active deception
11:05Third, financial exploitation
11:06You covered his living costs
11:08Handled debt communications
11:08Provided domestic labor and emotional care
11:10While low income
11:11While he later had ability to pay
11:12But made you believe he had no money
11:13Fourth, emotional distress
11:14Target, hospital, restaurant
11:15Witnesses, videos, public humiliation
11:17Fifth, compensation for unpaid domestic labor
11:19We can prove you provided long-term labor
11:21Under false promise of marriage
11:22Sixth, pregnancy-related medical damages
11:25Especially the hospital incident
11:26We're subpoenaing surveillance footage
11:28What about Vanessa?
11:29If she knew you existed
11:30And still participated in humiliating
11:32Threatening and publicly slanding you
11:33We can file a separate suit for defamation
11:34And intentional infliction of emotional distress
11:36There's one more thing
11:37You just said Ethan bought you the condo
11:38The car and the trust
11:39But used a company account
11:40And his assistant to arrange it
11:41His assistant sent an email
11:43Saying the documents would go through
11:44Whitmore-Papital's legal team
11:46Then this could involve corporate misconduct
11:47We need to investigate
11:49Whether he used company resources
11:50To maintain a private relationship
11:51Or patched his expenses on you
11:52As business costs
11:53First, save every text, email, transfer
11:55And medical record
11:56Don't delete anything
11:56And don't just scramshot
11:57And log out, back everything up
11:58Second, I'll issue a subpoena
12:00For the hospital and restaurant surveillance
12:01Third, match up all of Ethan's
12:02Business trip dates
12:03Over the past six years
12:04Vanessa's public schedule
12:05Your medical records
12:06And his transfer history
12:19Maya, will you marry Ethan Whitwick?
12:21I do
12:23His name is Daniel Price
12:24Ethan's college classmate
12:26I found out he didn't hold
12:27Any official aid license back then
12:28And he never submitted
12:29A marriage license for you two
12:33Is it possible he just forgot?
12:35Two days before your private ceremony
12:37He received a $5,000 transfer
12:40From Ethan
12:41The memo said consulting
12:46I also found out that four years ago
12:48When Ethan and Vanessa
12:49Registered their marriage
12:50Daniel was one of the witnesses
12:51It wasn't a paperwork mistake
12:53It wasn't that the lawyer
12:54Missed filing it
12:55It wasn't that Ethan
12:56Later found himself
12:57Caught in a dilemma
12:58From the very beginning
12:59That wedding was a con
13:00He had orchestrated
13:01Maya, you can stop now
13:03Or we can file the complaint
13:10File it
13:11Then we'll submit the complaint today
13:13Ethan will receive it soon
13:16Mr. Whitmore
13:17A process server just dropped this
13:19At the front desk
13:31The complaint was exposed
13:33Faster than Ethan had imagined
13:36Tax evasion
13:37Abuse of corporate resources
13:39And private life
13:40Affecting investor reputation
13:44Every single term
13:45Was more lethal
13:46Than an emotional scandal
13:49Vanessa read the news
13:50She just hoped
13:51Ethan's trouble
13:52Wouldn't touch
13:53Her dinner party tomorrow
13:59Ethan
14:00Pending the investigation
14:01You need to take
14:02A temporary leave
14:03This is just
14:03A private dispute
14:04When a private dispute
14:06Involves a corporate card
14:07Fraudulent reimbursements
14:09And investor trust
14:10It is no longer
14:11A private dispute
14:12Ethan's phone
14:13Wouldn't stop buzzing
14:14Investors were backing out
14:15The bank wanted a new risk review
14:17And his PR team
14:18Told him to stay out
14:19Of the public eye
14:24At 7pm
14:25Whitmore Capital
14:26Updated their site
14:27Ethan opened it
14:29The homepage
14:29And team pages
14:30Were unchanged
14:31But the CEO slot
14:32His photo
14:33His bio
14:33Was gone
14:34Just a hollow white space
14:41When Vanessa
14:42Saw these materials
14:43She was in the middle
14:44Of fitting her gown
14:45For the annual charity gala
14:58Vanessa
14:59The board wants to speak
15:00With you before tonight
15:10They wouldn't dare
15:15Due to concerns
15:16Regarding financial misconduct
15:18Ms. Vanessa Hart
15:19Has stepped down
15:20Pending an investigation
15:21Into misuse of funds
15:35You can't do this to me
15:37I founded this foundation
15:44Vanessa
15:45The foundation
15:46Isn't your personal account
15:48Vanessa
15:49Do you admit
15:50To using funds
15:51For single fill earns
15:51To pay for personal expenses
15:53Did you hire a PR firm
15:54To smear Maya
15:59Was Ethan Whitfield
16:01Involved in the transfer
16:02Of foundation funds
16:05Please
16:05Stop
16:08The reporters
16:08Closed in on Vanessa
16:09She turned
16:10Searching for Ethan
16:11Out of habit
16:11But he didn't show
16:13He couldn't even help himself
16:15The wealthy women
16:16Who used to surround her
16:18Stayed far off
16:18On the outskirts of the crowd
16:19It hit her for the first time
16:21The title of lawful wife
16:22Meant nothing now
16:27My phone lit up
16:28With a breaking news push
16:29Vanessa Hart
16:30Head of the foundation
16:31Has been suspended
16:32She is now under investigation
16:56The day we got the hospital
16:57Surveillance footage
16:58I was doing the flowers
16:59For a small wedding
17:00We got it
17:05When Ethan rushed over
17:06He never saw my
17:07Deathly pale face
17:08He only supported Vanessa
17:10I thought I'd be sad
17:11But seeing this scene
17:12All I feel is absurdity
17:13The doctor wrote it clearly
17:15You were weak after
17:15Ziti with a sprained
17:16Wrist and shoulder
17:17That's enough
17:17To constitute defamation
17:22File it
17:25That day
17:26Rachel formally filed
17:28A complaint with the court
17:29On the grounds of defamation
17:33The online narrative
17:35Completely flipped
17:36The board of her foundation
17:38Issued a statement overnight
17:39Permanently suspending her
17:40From all duties
17:41Even the parent group chat
17:42At Caleb's private school
17:44Started gossiping
17:44Vanessa no longer
17:46Dare to appear in public
17:49Vanessa
17:50You need to consider
17:51A settlement
17:52Why should I settle
17:54I'm Ethan's wife
17:55Nobody cares if you're
17:56His wife right now
17:56They only see you
17:57Threatening a post-op woman
17:58Abusing charity funds
17:59And hiring PR to smear her
18:01If you don't settle
18:02You could lose the foundation
18:03And it will also affect
18:04The custody narrative
18:05In your divorce case
18:27He was going to set up a fund
18:28For that child
18:34She could accept Ethan
18:36Having a woman on the outside
18:39She could not accept Ethan
18:40Giving away things
18:42That should belong to her
18:43And Caleb
18:44File for divorce today
18:46And freeze every asset
18:47These bills from Aspen and Napa
18:49Why were they put on
18:50The corporate card
18:52The domestic consulting fee
18:53Paid to Maya
18:54What exact services
18:56Were rendered
18:57Did you instruct your sister
18:58To assist
18:59To hide your private
19:00Reterinary
19:03He used to think
19:04He was smart
19:05Vanessa gave him
19:06Respectability
19:07Maya gave him warmth
19:08He didn't want to
19:09Let either go
19:10In the end
19:11Neither woman
19:11Belonged to him anymore
19:12His company
19:13No longer belonged to him
19:14Even his proudest surname
19:16Had become a scandal
19:21Vanessa took Caleb
19:23He was alone
19:24In the empty living room
19:29He opened the short
19:30Wedding video
19:31It was from six years ago
19:32I do
19:35The video automatically
19:36Jumped to the comment section
19:55He finally understood
19:59He hadn't just lost a woman
20:03He had blown up his entire life
20:04With his own hands
20:19I didn't cater to wealthy wives
20:21I took orders from ordinary brides
20:23And arranged small weddings
20:25For girls on a budget
20:26Someone asked me my prices
20:28And weren't higher
20:29I only said
20:31Weddings shouldn't just belong
20:32To rich people
20:41Maya
20:44If you need something
20:46Talk to my lawyer
20:48I'm not here to fight
20:52I skimmed a few pages
20:53Then I crossed out several things
20:55I only left the medical damages
20:56The compensation for six years of labor
20:58While being deceived
20:59And the lawyer's fees
21:00You don't have to do this
21:02That was all yours anyway
21:04I'll take what I deserve
21:05I don't want what you're using
21:07To buy your peace of mind
21:08Maya
21:08I truly know I was wrong
21:10Every day I think
21:11If only I had acknowledged you
21:12In Target that day
21:13Maybe none of this would have happened
21:14It wouldn't have mattered
21:15Because the problem
21:16Wasn't that short denial in Target
21:17It's that you knew from day one
21:18That the wedding was fake
21:25Maya
21:26I love you
21:28You don't miss me
21:29You miss the woman who believed you
21:36I loved the man you pretended to be
21:39Ethan
21:40Once you sign it
21:41Don't come back
21:55Some stories are meant to end
21:57Like this flower
21:58Once it withers
21:59It is time to replace it
22:10I didn't cry
22:12I didn't look back
22:12I just finally let go
22:14I didn't look back
22:19You know海
22:20I just and I'm so w detector
22:21I felt with my desire
22:21I don't know
22:21I was so mad
22:21And I said
22:21How much dowager
22:21It's my new movie
22:22A lot of years ago
22:23But I was very happy
22:23And he was coming back
22:23That was really creepy
