00:00:00When I discovered my ma fiancé had secretly married another woman,
00:00:03I replaced myself at our wedding with his secret wife.
00:00:07Do you like the surprise I prepared for you, Adrian?
00:00:10Later, he went mad with regret and begged me to come back.
00:00:13But I married a wealthy heir who loved only me.
00:00:16This time, I refused to compromise.
00:00:18I never looked back and walked straight into a life of love and luxury.
00:00:22It all began 15 days before the wedding.
00:00:28Miss Bennet, so everything stays the same, except the bride?
00:00:35That's right.
00:00:39Then, should I let Mr. Hawthornington know?
00:00:41No, he's busy.
00:00:42For anything about the wedding, you clear it with me.
00:00:47The wedding in 15 days is my last gift to Adrian.
00:00:50A surprise like this only works when the veil comes up.
00:00:54The second I booked my flight, Adrian called.
00:00:59Lila, Mom wants us at the estate for dinner tonight.
00:01:02She got you something, too.
00:01:04Want to guess what it is?
00:01:05Everyone in New York high satiety knew Adrian ran more than Hawthorne grew.
00:01:11He ruled the New York underworld, too.
00:01:13Cold, dangerous, untouchable.
00:01:17And all his tenderness was for me.
00:01:22At least until yesterday, I thought I was the only woman he loved.
00:01:26I'm working on a surprise for the wedding.
00:01:28I'll head to the estate tonight.
00:01:30You don't have to pick me up.
00:01:32What surprise?
00:01:34You'll find out on the wedding day.
00:01:36All right.
00:01:37I'll look forward to it.
00:01:39Because last night, I found the City Hall marriage certificate in Adrian's pocket.
00:01:44The one proving he and Vanessa had already gotten married.
00:01:47He already had a legal wife.
00:01:50And 15 days later, he was still going to marry me.
00:01:54Of course the wedding would go on as planned.
00:01:58Just not me.
00:02:00Our mothers had been best friends since school.
00:02:03Adrian and I grew up together.
00:02:07Less than a month after my mother died,
00:02:09my father married the woman he'd been cheating with for years.
00:02:12She had me sent to a remote town.
00:02:15When I woke up, a drunk was tearing at my clothes.
00:02:25Adrian found me.
00:02:27In that moment, he felt heaven sent.
00:02:30After he saved me, the trauma ran deep.
00:02:33Adrian took me to therapist after therapist.
00:02:37And over the years, he pulled me out of that nightmare.
00:02:40Day by day, he warmed me back to life.
00:02:43But after what my father did to my mother,
00:02:45I was careful with love.
00:02:48So before I chose Adrian, I made one thing clear.
00:02:53I only accept all-in love.
00:02:55If you stop loving me, we part cleanly.
00:02:57But if you betray me, you'll never find me again.
00:03:02Lila Benny, you're the only one I'll ever want.
00:03:10Adrian designed these wedding rings himself.
00:03:12He said together, they made a whole heart.
00:03:15Proof we'd never be apart.
00:03:17But Vanessa's the one he married at City Hall.
00:03:21So these rings belong on her hand.
00:03:25This apartment is full of proof that Adrian and I were once in love.
00:03:29In the 14 days I have left, I'll erase it all.
00:03:33Piece by piece.
00:03:34Until this place looks like I was never here.
00:03:39You show up dressed like that?
00:03:41Don't expect to get out of bed tomorrow.
00:03:44This is your little bonus.
00:03:45Limited time offer, so you'd better show up tonight.
00:03:49Just wait till tonight.
00:03:52I've known Adrian for over 20 years.
00:03:55And I'd never heard that tone from him.
00:03:58So the man who stayed restrained and distant with me could lose control for another woman?
00:04:04Did you come up through the garage?
00:04:07Mm-hmm.
00:04:08I saw you on the phone, so I came back first.
00:04:11Did you hear who I was talking to?
00:04:13No.
00:04:14Wasn't it a client?
00:04:15Who else would it be?
00:04:17Not a client.
00:04:18I had new jewelry made for you for next week's charity gala.
00:04:21That was the jeweler.
00:04:22With me, you'll always shine brightest.
00:04:25After I was rescued, Adrian began hosting regular charity gala events through Hawthin Group.
00:04:32Every dollar raised went to the Lila Bennett Foundation.
00:04:36He wanted my name to help others who'd been through the same kind of pain.
00:04:42And he wanted me safe for the rest of my life.
00:04:46Adrian never believed in fate.
00:04:48But once, he was willing to go that far for me.
00:04:51Back then, it meant everything.
00:04:53Now, whatever you think is best.
00:04:59He thought he'd fooled me again.
00:05:01But once you've decided to leave for good, lies don't matter anymore.
00:05:06This has been passed down in the Hawthorne family to the future mistress of the house.
00:05:11Now I can finally give it to you.
00:05:13It's too important to take now.
00:05:15Please give it to me yourself on the wedding day.
00:05:20He had no idea the bride after that wedding wouldn't be me.
00:05:23He remembered my period.
00:05:25He remembered how much I hate the cold.
00:05:27If he'd already given his heart to someone else.
00:05:31How could he still be this tender with me?
00:05:34So even love like this can be faked.
00:05:37In bed, Adrian rubbed my stomach like he always had.
00:05:42I was getting sleepy, but I knew he just wanted me asleep so he could go to another woman.
00:05:49I felt Adrian pick up his phone.
00:05:51His breathing went heavier, and his hand tightened too.
00:05:53I gave him what he wanted.
00:05:54I let my breathing even out and pretended to be asleep.
00:05:57The second the door closed, I opened my eyes.
00:06:00Adrian thought I'd always stay and wait for him, no matter who he ran to.
00:06:03But in ten days, I'd be gone from his world for good.
00:06:07Something came up at the company last night.
00:06:09You were asleep, so I didn't wake you.
00:06:12At home, Adrian dressed like himself.
00:06:15Today, every button was done up.
00:06:18His concern was real.
00:06:19So was the lipstick mark on his chin.
00:06:22That was when I understood a man could give his love to one woman,
00:06:25and his desire to another.
00:06:26Don't touch me!
00:06:31Leela, did I do something wrong?
00:06:33No, I just thought of a story.
00:06:36A man failed the test of time.
00:06:38He betrayed the woman he loved, but couldn't let either one go.
00:06:42In the end, he lost everything.
00:06:45Adrian, would you become like him?
00:06:47No, Leela.
00:06:49You have to trust that I love you.
00:06:51I think when he finally lost everything,
00:06:54he'd remember the answer he gave in that moment.
00:06:58I'm sorry, Mrs. Bennett.
00:06:59That dress is already reserved.
00:07:01Call her.
00:07:02If she'll give it up, I'll buy her a new one.
00:07:04It's Mrs. Black.
00:07:07Looks like she and I have the same taste.
00:07:10Same taste in dresses, same taste in jewelry, even the same man.
00:07:15Adrian caught the meaning, and I chose another dress.
00:07:18Only then did he bury his reaction.
00:07:24The moment he saw me in it, he said what he always said.
00:07:28Leela, I must be the luckiest man alive.
00:07:32The old me would have been breathless.
00:07:35Now I was calm.
00:07:36If anything, I wanted to get away.
00:07:40Seven days?
00:07:42What's the countdown for?
00:07:44The wedding's in seven days.
00:07:46Did you forget?
00:07:49He didn't know I was never looking forward to marrying him.
00:07:52I was waiting for seven days from now,
00:07:55when I'd watch him lose me.
00:07:57At the gala, everyone praised how much Adrian loved me.
00:08:01If Mr. Hawthorne isn't number one at spoiling his wife,
00:08:05nobody in New York is.
00:08:06They said no couple in New York was better matched than we were.
00:08:10Any woman would envy me for having a man like him.
00:08:13They smiled and toasted our wedding.
00:08:16But I already knew plenty of them had seen him with Vanessa.
00:08:21Mr. Hawthorne.
00:08:22Miss Benny.
00:08:24Long time no see.
00:08:25I had no interest in fake pleasantries,
00:08:28so I acted like she wasn't there.
00:08:30Miss Bennett, I'm sorry about last time.
00:08:33I had no choice.
00:08:34I had to take Mr. Hawthorne's arm
00:08:36and have him pretend to be my boyfriend in front of my family.
00:08:39But he turned me down right on the spot.
00:08:42And I have a boyfriend now.
00:08:44So, how about we just let bygones be bygones?
00:08:48There wasn't a schmet of remorse in her voice.
00:08:51Every word was a tonk.
00:08:54Adrian heard the smugness too.
00:08:56He told her to leave.
00:08:58Know your place.
00:08:59Lila doesn't want you here.
00:09:01Stay away from her.
00:09:03She doesn't.
00:09:05Some people do.
00:09:07He talked like he was protecting me,
00:09:10but his body told the truth.
00:09:13They flirted like I wasn't even there,
00:09:15so I left.
00:09:16Adrian came after me.
00:09:19Behind us,
00:09:21guests quickly crowded around Vanessa.
00:09:23Vanessa?
00:09:24Those earrings look expensive.
00:09:26Of course.
00:09:28They were a gift from my boyfriend.
00:09:31Those earrings
00:09:32look like they're from the same sapphires
00:09:34as Miss Bennett's jewelry to date.
00:09:37Your boyfriend didn't buy
00:09:38from the same rough stones
00:09:40as Mr. Hawthorne, did you?
00:09:42I stopped cold.
00:09:44So Adrian's custom-made gift
00:09:47came from the same stones
00:09:48he used for another woman.
00:09:51Just as I stepped into the restroom,
00:09:53Adrian's phone keeked.
00:09:56The small garden.
00:09:57I'll be waiting.
00:10:00With seven days left
00:10:01before the wedding,
00:10:02I finally saw his betrayal
00:10:04with my own eyes.
00:10:11Trying to tempt me again?
00:10:13Forgot you could barely get out of bed
00:10:14a few days ago?
00:10:15Adrian had been with me
00:10:17non-stop these past few days.
00:10:19I knew exactly
00:10:20which day he meant.
00:10:21I thought you'd been
00:10:22so busy with her,
00:10:23you'd forgotten all about me.
00:10:28There was no hesitation
00:10:30between them.
00:10:31They moved like they'd done
00:10:33this countless times.
00:10:34In the stillness of the garden,
00:10:36even their kisses
00:10:37reached my ears.
00:10:43You trying to get yourself killed?
00:10:45I told you.
00:10:46No marks where people
00:10:48can see them.
00:10:49What, scared she'll find out?
00:10:51If Leela sees it,
00:10:53she'll lose it.
00:10:54Then make up an excuse.
00:10:56She trusts you.
00:10:57She won't suspect a thing.
00:11:02I like you better
00:11:03when you're this rough in bed.
00:11:05You loved that maid,
00:11:06Sufit, last time,
00:11:07didn't you?
00:11:09Come tonight,
00:11:10I've got something new for you.
00:11:16He protected me with words,
00:11:18but his body told the truth.
00:11:19He hadn't stayed away from Vanessa
00:11:21because he wanted to end it.
00:11:25He just hadn't had the chance.
00:11:26I already knew
00:11:27they were sleeping together.
00:11:29Seeing it still hit harder
00:11:30than I imagined.
00:11:31My body went cold.
00:11:33My chest hurt so badly
00:11:35I could barely breathe.
00:11:36Only then did I understand.
00:11:38Adrian was never afraid
00:11:40of hurting me.
00:11:41He was afraid I'd learn
00:11:42the truth
00:11:42and ruin the fantasy
00:11:44he couldn't let go of.
00:11:50Where were you?
00:11:51I went for a walk in the garden.
00:11:52What happened to your lip?
00:11:56Dry air.
00:11:57It split a little.
00:11:57It's nothing.
00:11:59You went to the garden?
00:12:00Did you see anything?
00:12:02No.
00:12:06I'd fooled him again.
00:12:08He still hadn't noticed
00:12:09I no longer wanted
00:12:10to hold him back.
00:12:12On stage,
00:12:13Vanessa kept talking
00:12:14about Adrian's generosity.
00:12:16Her eyes were full of love.
00:12:18His were somewhere else.
00:12:20I'm tired.
00:12:21I want to go home.
00:12:24I'll go with you.
00:12:25Wait for me, okay?
00:12:27In that moment,
00:12:28he felt afraid.
00:12:29He just didn't know
00:12:30what he should have
00:12:31been afraid of.
00:12:35I told you to end it
00:12:37with Vanessa.
00:12:37You had Lila.
00:12:39Why risk all this
00:12:40for a cheap thrill?
00:12:41People are already talking.
00:12:42What happens when Lila
00:12:43finds out?
00:12:44I felt cold all over.
00:12:46So Eleanor had known
00:12:47all along.
00:12:48Somehow,
00:12:49this hurt even more
00:12:49than seeing Adrian Hawthorne
00:12:50with Vanessa Black
00:12:51that night.
00:12:52They all watched me
00:12:53being deceived,
00:12:53then praised Adrian
00:12:54to my face
00:12:55for loving me so much.
00:12:56All along,
00:12:57I was the only fool
00:12:58who mystic his betrayal
00:12:58for love.
00:13:00For that whole week,
00:13:02Adrian never left my side.
00:13:04But I wasn't walking away
00:13:05with nothing.
00:13:07For that whole week,
00:13:09Adrian never left my side.
00:13:10But I wasn't walking away
00:13:12with nothing.
00:13:12His phone and laptop
00:13:14were both still locked
00:13:14with my birthday.
00:13:16He trusted me
00:13:17never to doubt him.
00:13:18and in that moment,
00:13:19I found out just how much
00:13:21he'd been hiding from me.
00:13:23Adrian hadn't just married
00:13:24Vanessa at City Hall.
00:13:26He gave her the wedding portraits,
00:13:28even the honeymoon.
00:13:33I gave the wedding planning firm
00:13:34the wedding portraits
00:13:35and all their intimate photos,
00:13:37then had them redo
00:13:38the rest of the wedding details
00:13:39to match.
00:13:43When it was done,
00:13:45something in me felt hollow.
00:13:48Strange thing was,
00:13:50it didn't hurt as much
00:13:51as I thought it would.
00:13:56Maybe leaving was never
00:13:57the hardest part.
00:13:58Maybe the real pain
00:13:59was admitting everything
00:14:00I'd believed in was a lie.
00:14:07Miss Bennett,
00:14:09are you here for a pregnancy
00:14:10checkup too?
00:14:12No.
00:14:17Leela,
00:14:18I just ran into her.
00:14:19She wasn't feeling well,
00:14:20so I brought her in.
00:14:22I see.
00:14:23I'm a little over
00:14:24two months pregnant,
00:14:25with twins.
00:14:27Their father got a little
00:14:28rough last night,
00:14:29so I'm not feeling great.
00:14:30If you're okay,
00:14:31I should go.
00:14:35Leela,
00:14:35I'll take you home.
00:14:37I didn't know
00:14:37what Adrian was really
00:14:38afraid of,
00:14:39that I'd find out
00:14:40the babies Vanessa
00:14:41was carrying were his,
00:14:42or that one more word
00:14:43from her would expose
00:14:44even more lies.
00:14:46I let Adrian lead me out
00:14:47like a puppet.
00:14:48He still didn't know
00:14:49I'd already seen
00:14:50his City Hall marriage
00:14:51certificate,
00:14:52the wedding portraits,
00:14:53the honeymoon photos.
00:14:54I already knew
00:14:55Vanessa was carrying
00:14:56his twins.
00:14:58I told Adrian once,
00:15:00if he ever betrayed me,
00:15:02I'd disappear so completely
00:15:04he'd never find me.
00:15:06I'll do as I said.
00:15:12And there was one more gift
00:15:14waiting for Adrian
00:15:14on the wedding day.
00:15:17On the way back,
00:15:18Adrian's phone
00:15:19kept lighting up.
00:15:21Adrian,
00:15:22come over tonight
00:15:23and help me pick out
00:15:24baby names, okay?
00:15:26Later.
00:15:27If Leela finds out about us,
00:15:28you won't want to deal
00:15:29with the fallout.
00:15:31He hadn't told Vanessa
00:15:32to get rid of the babies.
00:15:35He didn't mind
00:15:35that she was pregnant.
00:15:38A long time ago,
00:15:40Adrian told me
00:15:40he loved kids.
00:15:46I knew she was
00:15:47baiting me,
00:15:47but I still agreed.
00:15:49As soon as the follow
00:15:50request went through,
00:15:51her DM came in.
00:15:53Aren't you curious
00:15:54who the father
00:15:54of my babies is?
00:15:55Don't tell me
00:15:56you're too blind
00:15:57to see how Adrian
00:15:57feels about me.
00:15:58She wanted me hysterical,
00:16:00demanding answers.
00:16:01But I already knew.
00:16:03I'd already decided
00:16:04to leave.
00:16:05I didn't need
00:16:06an explanation
00:16:07from anyone.
00:16:07I'm the one
00:16:08Adrian married
00:16:09at City Hall.
00:16:10I'm his legal wife.
00:16:12Unless I agree
00:16:13to a divorce,
00:16:13you'll always
00:16:14come second to me.
00:16:15Unless I agree
00:16:16to a divorce,
00:16:17you'll always
00:16:18come second to me.
00:16:19He makes time
00:16:20for me almost
00:16:21every day.
00:16:21And that gown
00:16:22at the charity gala,
00:16:23he spent a fortune
00:16:25having it made for me.
00:16:26A boring woman
00:16:27like you could never
00:16:28understand how much
00:16:29he wants me.
00:16:30What he really likes
00:16:31is a woman
00:16:32who's uninhibited in bed.
00:16:34What are you looking
00:16:35at so hard?
00:16:38Nothing.
00:16:40My calm only
00:16:41made him more uneasy.
00:16:42It should have.
00:16:45He had no idea
00:16:46some things were already
00:16:47slipping out of his control.
00:16:49For days,
00:16:50Adrian hid behind
00:16:51Hawthorne Group business
00:16:52and never came home.
00:16:54I didn't ask
00:16:55where he was.
00:16:57Vanessa made sure
00:16:58I saw every moment
00:16:59he spent with her
00:17:00and the babies.
00:17:03Adrian's been with me
00:17:04these past few days.
00:17:05Do you think he'll
00:17:06leave you at the altar
00:17:07for me and our babies?
00:17:15With Adrian gone,
00:17:16it was easier.
00:17:18I cleared out
00:17:19everything that was mine
00:17:20and watched every trace
00:17:21of us disappear.
00:17:25On the wedding day,
00:17:26someone was going to run.
00:17:28It wasn't Adrian.
00:17:30It was me.
00:17:38Why is so much stuff gone?
00:17:39I cleared out some stuff
00:17:40we didn't need.
00:17:41We'll get new things
00:17:41after the wedding.
00:17:46I had our first photo
00:17:47restored.
00:17:48Look,
00:17:49doesn't it look
00:17:50exactly the same?
00:17:51Vanessa's dog
00:17:52tore up the original.
00:17:53She bragged about it
00:17:54like it proved Adrian chose her.
00:17:55He fixed the photo,
00:17:56but not us.
00:17:58I want your spaghetti bolognese.
00:17:59Have dinner with me tonight.
00:18:02After he saved me,
00:18:04I was starving.
00:18:05I ate two plates of pasta.
00:18:09Then Adrian spent a month
00:18:11learning that recipe for me.
00:18:13Tonight was our ending.
00:18:17Leela,
00:18:18something urgent
00:18:18came up at the company.
00:18:20Go ahead.
00:18:21We'll have plenty of time.
00:18:26Thank you for understanding.
00:18:30I might be tied up late tonight,
00:18:31so don't wait up.
00:18:34I can't wait to see you
00:18:35in your wedding dress tomorrow.
00:18:38I can't wait either.
00:18:41It wasn't just love
00:18:42that changed.
00:18:44He's with me
00:18:45the night before your wedding.
00:18:46What are you even competing with?
00:18:48So did habits.
00:18:50So did taste.
00:18:52This was our last supper,
00:18:54and Adrian still left me
00:18:55for Vanessa.
00:18:57Again.
00:19:12On my wedding day,
00:19:13I woke up before 7 o'clock.
00:19:16I'd already shipped
00:19:17everything out days earlier.
00:19:19All I had left
00:19:20was the luggage
00:19:20I needed to carry with me.
00:19:24The custom wedding rings
00:19:26Adrian and I ordered
00:19:27would reach Vanessa
00:19:28right on time.
00:19:29I could at least make sure
00:19:31she had everything.
00:19:32If she wanted to be
00:19:34the bride that badly,
00:19:36I took one last look
00:19:38at the place
00:19:38I'd once called home.
00:19:40My clothes, books,
00:19:42and photos were gone.
00:19:43Only Adrian was left behind.
00:19:46The 15-day wedding countdown
00:19:48had finally hit zero.
00:19:50Adrian once promised
00:19:51that if he betrayed me,
00:19:52he'd let me go.
00:19:53Let me disappear
00:19:54from his world for good.
00:19:57Today,
00:19:57I was here to make sure
00:19:59he kept that promise.
00:20:03At that same moment,
00:20:05Adrian was waking up
00:20:06in Vanessa's bed.
00:20:07The night before,
00:20:08she'd pulled him away
00:20:09from our last dinner together,
00:20:11crying that she'd fallen
00:20:12and her stomach hurt.
00:20:15He knew it was just
00:20:16a poi for attention.
00:20:19He stayed anyway.
00:20:33Leela,
00:20:34I can't wait to see you.
00:20:40Me too.
00:20:41I hope you like the surprise
00:20:43I have for you
00:20:43after the wedding begins.
00:20:50He thought I was looking forward
00:20:51to the wedding
00:20:51as much as he was.
00:20:55He had no idea
00:20:56we were waiting
00:20:56for two very different things.
00:21:10Adrian thought I was on my way
00:21:11to the wedding,
00:21:12but while he waited
00:21:13for his bride,
00:21:15my plane was already
00:21:16leaving New York.
00:21:20Leela and I grew up together.
00:21:23She's the most important person
00:21:24in my life.
00:21:27The only woman
00:21:28I want to spend forever with.
00:21:31In front of everyone,
00:21:33he relived our past
00:21:34and declared his love for me.
00:21:36Every word felt
00:21:37heartbreakingly sincere,
00:21:39as if he hadn't climbed
00:21:40out of another woman's bed
00:21:41that morning.
00:21:44Leela,
00:21:45I'll spend the rest of my life
00:21:47proving how much I love you.
00:21:50will you stay with me
00:21:51for the rest of our lives?
00:21:57And then he finally
00:21:58got the wedding surprise
00:22:00I planned for him.
00:22:02Do you like it, Adrian?
00:22:07The second Adrian
00:22:08saw the bride's face,
00:22:10every trace of happiness
00:22:11vanished.
00:22:12In its place was panic,
00:22:14raw enough
00:22:15that even he
00:22:15couldn't hold it down.
00:22:16Why are you here?
00:22:19Where's Leela?
00:22:21Adrian, what are you
00:22:22talking about?
00:22:23We already got married
00:22:24at City Hall.
00:22:26I should be the bride.
00:22:27Everyone's watching,
00:22:28so stop.
00:22:31Then he saw the ring.
00:22:33He'd had it made for me.
00:22:35And I'd handed it over
00:22:36intact
00:22:36to his legal wife.
00:22:40Ow!
00:22:40Adrian, you're hurting me!
00:22:43Why is Vanessa the bride?
00:22:45Wasn't Adrian supposed
00:22:46to marry Leela?
00:22:52Adrian, calm down.
00:22:53Whatever this is,
00:22:55it can wait until
00:22:55after the wedding.
00:22:57Everyone told him
00:22:58to calm down.
00:22:59He searched the whole room
00:23:00for me
00:23:01and found nothing.
00:23:04then he finally noticed
00:23:06the screen behind him.
00:23:09The screen wasn't showing
00:23:11our wedding portraits anymore.
00:23:13It was playing the set
00:23:14Vanessa had talked him
00:23:15into taking.
00:23:16My name,
00:23:17my photos,
00:23:18my dress,
00:23:19my ring,
00:23:20everything had been
00:23:20replaced with Vanessa's.
00:23:23only then did Adrian
00:23:24understand what my surprise
00:23:26really was.
00:23:30Leela ran out
00:23:31on the wedding,
00:23:32but you still have me
00:23:33and the babies.
00:23:37Adrian,
00:23:39let's finish the wedding.
00:23:41I'm your wife.
00:23:43Finish the ceremony
00:23:45and we can be a real family
00:23:46with our babies.
00:23:52Get out.
00:23:54Vanessa thought
00:23:54once I was gone,
00:23:55she could finally
00:23:56take my place.
00:23:57What she forgot
00:23:58was that Adrian
00:23:59never wanted
00:23:59just one woman.
00:24:00He wanted both of us.
00:24:05Leela and I
00:24:05were in love.
00:24:07She wouldn't just
00:24:07walk out on our wedding
00:24:08for no reason.
00:24:10What did you say to her?
00:24:12I didn't do anything.
00:24:14She just doesn't
00:24:14want you anymore.
00:24:16This is my wedding
00:24:17to Leela.
00:24:20Even if she didn't show up,
00:24:22you don't get to stand here.
00:24:27My babies.
00:24:28Adrian,
00:24:29my stomach hurts.
00:24:30Save our babies.
00:24:31Vanessa lay
00:24:31in a pool of blood
00:24:32calling for him
00:24:33and the babies.
00:24:34But Adrian
00:24:34never even looked back.
00:24:35Even then,
00:24:36he still refused
00:24:37to believe
00:24:37I'd really left him.
00:24:40Leela's just
00:24:41messing with me.
00:24:46He turned
00:24:46a one-hour drive
00:24:47into 30 minutes,
00:24:49telling himself
00:24:50over and over
00:24:51I hadn't run out
00:24:51on our wedding.
00:24:54I was home,
00:24:55waiting for him
00:24:56to come back for me.
00:25:00Leela!
00:25:06But all he found
00:25:07was an apartment
00:25:08I'd emptied out.
00:25:13Leela, come out!
00:25:15Adrian searched
00:25:16every room,
00:25:17every corner.
00:25:19He kept calling my name,
00:25:21his voice growing Harris,
00:25:22but no one answered.
00:25:25Leela, come on.
00:25:26This isn't funny, okay?
00:25:30We still have a wedding
00:25:31to get to.
00:25:32My clothes,
00:25:34books,
00:25:34jewelry,
00:25:35everything was gone.
00:25:36Anything that proved
00:25:37I'd ever lived there
00:25:38had been wiped clean.
00:25:41Our matching things,
00:25:42anniversary gifts,
00:25:44even the photos
00:25:45were gone.
00:25:48That's when Adrian
00:25:49finally realized
00:25:50I hadn't just stormed out.
00:25:52I'd already decided
00:25:53to disappear
00:25:54from his life
00:25:55for good.
00:26:01The spaghetti bolognese
00:26:03he'd made the night before
00:26:04was still on the table.
00:26:05It used to be my favorite.
00:26:08It was the last meal
00:26:09I ever planned
00:26:10to share with him.
00:26:13He'd worked so hard
00:26:14to fix that photo.
00:26:16I tore it in half again.
00:26:18I took my half
00:26:19and left him
00:26:19with only himself.
00:26:21A photo can be fixed.
00:26:24I didn't give us
00:26:25that chance.
00:26:33Why?
00:26:35Leela?
00:26:38Adrian,
00:26:39did you find Lila?
00:26:41Lila's gone.
00:26:46Of course he knew.
00:26:48Adrian just thought
00:26:49he was powerful enough
00:26:50to keep me believing him
00:26:51and keep Vanessa
00:26:52hidden for good.
00:26:58Why didn't you tell us
00:26:59Vanessa was pregnant?
00:27:00And when exactly
00:27:01did you two get married
00:27:02at City Hall?
00:27:03Don't tell me you couldn't
00:27:04see through her
00:27:05cheap little tricks.
00:27:07You knew exactly
00:27:08what she wanted,
00:27:09so why did you
00:27:09keep this going?
00:27:11Leela would never
00:27:12let something like
00:27:13this slide.
00:27:15She must have found out
00:27:16about you and Vanessa.
00:27:18I tried to give her
00:27:19the bracelet early,
00:27:20but she insisted on
00:27:21getting it on the wedding
00:27:22day.
00:27:26Adrian was finally
00:27:27replaying the last
00:27:28two weeks.
00:27:29I stopped asking
00:27:30where he'd been,
00:27:32stopped fighting
00:27:32over Vanessa.
00:27:34I even ignored the kiss marks
00:27:36on him.
00:27:37The night before the wedding,
00:27:39he saw how much was already
00:27:41gone from the apartment.
00:27:43And he still bought my excuse.
00:27:46He noticed my silence,
00:27:48my distance.
00:27:52But back then,
00:27:53his mind was on Vanessa.
00:27:55He never really looked at me.
00:28:01If you ever stop loving me,
00:28:03you can walk away clean.
00:28:05but if you betray me,
00:28:07you'll never find me again.
00:28:14Not until I made good on that promise
00:28:16did he understand.
00:28:18My leaving was never
00:28:19without warning.
00:28:21The signs were there
00:28:22all along.
00:28:24But Adrian was so sure
00:28:26he controlled everything.
00:28:28He missed his last chance
00:28:30to make it right.
00:28:33Once he found out
00:28:34why I left,
00:28:36Adrian started chasing me
00:28:37like a madman.
00:28:38But every call went straight
00:28:39to an automated message.
00:28:42Leela, answer the phone.
00:28:44We need to talk face to face.
00:28:48I blocked every way
00:28:49he had to reach me.
00:28:51I cut off every direct path to me.
00:28:59Isn't today your wedding?
00:29:01Why would she be with me?
00:29:02I don't know where she went.
00:29:04He called everyone who knew me.
00:29:07Every denial killed
00:29:08whatever hope he had left.
00:29:09Then one call finally connected.
00:29:11It was my best friend, Sophie.
00:29:13Looking for Leela?
00:29:14Keep dreaming, Adrian Hawthorne.
00:29:16You know where she is,
00:29:18don't you?
00:29:20A piece of trash like you
00:29:22doesn't deserve to see her again.
00:29:24And you sure as hell
00:29:26don't get to know where she went.
00:29:28What do you want?
00:29:30Money?
00:29:31A house?
00:29:32A job?
00:29:33Tell me where she is
00:29:36and I'll give you
00:29:37whatever you want.
00:29:38You think a little money
00:29:39makes you somebody?
00:29:41your money means nothing to me.
00:29:44Sophie hung up
00:29:45and blocked him too.
00:29:47Adrian didn't even realize
00:29:48the call was over.
00:29:50I know I was wrong.
00:29:52I won't touch another woman again.
00:29:55Please.
00:29:57Just tell me where Leela is.
00:29:59When that last bit of hope was gone
00:30:00he finally snapped.
00:30:04He kept pounding the floor
00:30:06until his knuckles split
00:30:07blood pooling across it.
00:30:14I told you over and over
00:30:16to end it with Vanessa.
00:30:18Why didn't you listen?
00:30:21You think hurting yourself like this
00:30:23will bring Leela back?
00:30:26Mom
00:30:27I was wrong.
00:30:29He finally understood
00:30:31that the secret he thought
00:30:32was foolproof
00:30:33was never going to stay
00:30:34buried forever.
00:30:36But some mistakes
00:30:37don't disappear
00:30:38just because you're sorry.
00:30:41Vanessa's children
00:30:42are stable for now.
00:30:44They're Hawthorne blood.
00:30:45So your father and I
00:30:47decided to keep her here
00:30:48for the time being.
00:30:51No.
00:30:54Leela has already left
00:30:55without telling you
00:30:56which means there's no way
00:30:57to turn this around.
00:30:58You and Vanessa
00:30:58registered your marriage
00:30:59and she's also pregnant
00:31:01with your child.
00:31:02So stop
00:31:03looking for Leela.
00:31:08No!
00:31:13Eleanor wanted him
00:31:14to accept Vanessa
00:31:15and the child.
00:31:17But Adrian refused
00:31:18to believe I'd already
00:31:19given up on him.
00:31:21He assumed I'd only
00:31:22blocked his number
00:31:23and not Eleanor's too.
00:31:27Hello?
00:31:33Leela.
00:31:35It's me.
00:31:36The second I heard
00:31:37his voice
00:31:38I hung up.
00:31:39Once I decided
00:31:40to leave
00:31:41I wasn't listening
00:31:42to one more apology
00:31:43that came too late.
00:31:49Adrian!
00:31:52She answered.
00:31:53She'll still take
00:31:54your calls.
00:31:55My resolve
00:31:56didn't make him give up.
00:31:58Instead,
00:31:58it made him even more certain
00:31:59that Sophie must know
00:32:00where I went.
00:32:02Send people
00:32:03to follow Sophie.
00:32:04I need to know
00:32:04who she meets
00:32:05and who she contacts.
00:32:06Also contact
00:32:07the private investigation team
00:32:08and check Leela's
00:32:09credit cards,
00:32:10flight records,
00:32:10and train bookings
00:32:11for today.
00:32:12The moment you find anything,
00:32:13tell me at once.
00:32:22To find me,
00:32:23Adrian didn't just use
00:32:24Hawthorne Group's
00:32:25private investigative team.
00:32:26He mobilized the family's
00:32:28entire network
00:32:28in New York.
00:32:30The wedding scandal
00:32:31was spreading
00:32:32across New York.
00:32:33It could damage
00:32:34Hawthorne Group
00:32:34and the family business.
00:32:36But he didn't care.
00:32:38He only wanted to know
00:32:39where I'd gone.
00:32:41Mr. Hawthorne,
00:32:43the world's a big place.
00:32:46If Ms. Bennett
00:32:47wants to stay hidden,
00:32:48then search
00:32:49the whole world.
00:32:56I will find her.
00:32:59New York sees too many
00:33:00flights and trains
00:33:01to count.
00:33:03It still took
00:33:04the private investigative
00:33:05team days
00:33:06to find the bookings
00:33:07tied to me
00:33:07on our wedding day.
00:33:08Ms. Benny bought
00:33:09nearly 20 plane
00:33:11and train tickets.
00:33:12They lead to over
00:33:12a dozen U.S. cities
00:33:14and six other countries.
00:33:15Some overlapped.
00:33:17Some went
00:33:17in opposite directions.
00:33:19That's when Adrian realized
00:33:20I'd laid nearly
00:33:2120 false trails
00:33:22so he wouldn't find me.
00:33:23Check every location.
00:33:25Airports, stations,
00:33:26hotels,
00:33:27surveillance footage.
00:33:27Verify all of it.
00:33:29He crossed off
00:33:30one place after another.
00:33:34But finding someone
00:33:36determined to vanish
00:33:37is like chasing
00:33:38one face
00:33:38through a crowd.
00:33:41in the five days
00:33:42after the wedding
00:33:43he slept less than
00:33:43five hours.
00:33:46Every other minute
00:33:47went to finding me.
00:33:53Mr. Hawthorne?
00:33:58He'd been unconscious
00:33:59from exhaustion
00:34:00for a full day.
00:34:07The second he woke up
00:34:08he ripped out the IV
00:34:10and went looking
00:34:10for me again.
00:34:15Adrian,
00:34:16mom said you haven't slept
00:34:17in days.
00:34:18Get your strength back first
00:34:20or I'm gonna worry.
00:34:23Not until she said mom
00:34:25did Adrian realize
00:34:26Vanessa had been in his room
00:34:28the whole time.
00:34:30Mom was with me yesterday
00:34:31picking names for our twins.
00:34:38We're already married
00:34:39at City Hall
00:34:40and I'm pregnant
00:34:41with your child.
00:34:43Everyone at the wedding
00:34:44saw it.
00:34:45Your mother has already
00:34:46accepted me.
00:34:50Know your place.
00:34:52you don't get to call her mom.
00:34:58But I'm carrying
00:34:59a Hawthorne baby.
00:35:00Adrian,
00:35:01we're the real family now.
00:35:08Vanilla kept pointing
00:35:09to the marriage certificate
00:35:10and the baby.
00:35:13Legally,
00:35:14they were the married couple.
00:35:16But every word
00:35:17only reminded Adrian
00:35:18why I'd left him.
00:35:20Adrian,
00:35:21let go of me.
00:35:26Adrian,
00:35:26have you lost your mind?
00:35:29She's pregnant.
00:35:36Why were you the one
00:35:37who walked in that day?
00:35:42And why did you have
00:35:43Lisa's wedding ring?
00:35:45For days,
00:35:46all he could think about
00:35:47was finding me.
00:35:50Seeing Vanessa again
00:35:52brought back every question
00:35:53from the wedding
00:35:54that still didn't have an answer.
00:35:58After you left,
00:35:59a package came for me.
00:36:00The rings were inside.
00:36:04Then the wedding planning firm
00:36:05called and told me
00:36:06to put on the dress
00:36:07and go to the venue.
00:36:10I thought
00:36:11you changed your mind.
00:36:13That it was a surprise.
00:36:17And you didn't ask
00:36:18why they were suddenly
00:36:18changing the bride?
00:36:22All I could think about
00:36:23was taking Leela's place
00:36:24and marrying you.
00:36:26I wasn't thinking
00:36:27about anything else.
00:36:31This is Adrian Hawthorne.
00:36:35I want to know exactly
00:36:37when Leela told you
00:36:38to switch the bride.
00:36:43Mr. Hawthorne,
00:36:44this was 15 days
00:36:45before the wedding.
00:36:47Ms. Benny came to our firm
00:36:48in person
00:36:49and told us to keep
00:36:50everything the same
00:36:51except change the bride
00:36:53to Ms. Black.
00:36:54After that,
00:36:56Ms. Benny personally
00:36:56gave us the photos,
00:36:58names,
00:36:58and the rest
00:36:59of the wedding materials.
00:37:02He finally understood.
00:37:04I decided to leave
00:37:05on the first day
00:37:05of that countdown.
00:37:07Every gala,
00:37:08every kindness,
00:37:09every wedding detail
00:37:10after that
00:37:11was just my final goodbye.
00:37:23Fifteen days?
00:37:30After all those years,
00:37:31how could she just
00:37:32throw it away?
00:37:36He couldn't understand
00:37:37how I could leave
00:37:38so coldly.
00:37:41but I was never the one
00:37:42who gave up on us first.
00:37:48If he hadn't given in
00:37:49to Vanessa
00:37:50and crushed my trust,
00:37:52I never would have spent
00:37:53those 15 days
00:37:54erasing myself
00:37:55from his world.
00:37:59Adrian!
00:38:07Mr. Hawthorne,
00:38:08we got a lead
00:38:09from Mrs. Reed.
00:38:11Based on the photo
00:38:12background,
00:38:13Ms. Bennett is likely
00:38:13in Anchorage, Alaska.
00:38:16The photo was so blurry
00:38:18you could barely
00:38:19make out a face.
00:38:21Still,
00:38:22like a man clinging
00:38:23to his last hope,
00:38:24he knew it was me
00:38:25instantly.
00:38:28Book the first flight
00:38:29to Anchorage.
00:38:31I'm going to find her
00:38:32myself.
00:38:35Three hours later,
00:38:36he was on a flight
00:38:37to Anchorage.
00:38:40The second he landed
00:38:41nearly eight hours later,
00:38:42he went straight
00:38:43to the place
00:38:44in the photo.
00:38:47He kept asking
00:38:48around the bay
00:38:48and the streets
00:38:50from that photo
00:38:51until he found
00:38:52the family run-in
00:38:53where I'd stayed.
00:38:58She was staying here,
00:38:59right?
00:39:01Yeah,
00:39:02but she just
00:39:03checked out.
00:39:04he finally found
00:39:05the right place.
00:39:07But he was too late.
00:39:10The room hadn't even
00:39:12been cleaned yet.
00:39:13I was already gone.
00:39:18In the bathroom,
00:39:19he found a hair clip
00:39:20I'd forgotten.
00:39:23It was the only proof
00:39:24I'd ever been there.
00:39:29after I left,
00:39:30he reprinted
00:39:31our old photos.
00:39:33He bought back
00:39:34everything I'd taken.
00:39:39It was the only way
00:39:40he could pretend
00:39:41I'd only gone away
00:39:42for a while.
00:39:49Lila,
00:39:49why won't you
00:39:50even see me?
00:39:55Adrian thought
00:39:55he could trace
00:39:56my flights
00:39:56and travel records
00:39:57like he did
00:39:58in New York.
00:40:01But this wasn't
00:40:02a place
00:40:02the Hawthorne family
00:40:04could just pull
00:40:05information from.
00:40:07Daniel still
00:40:08couldn't find
00:40:08where I'd gone
00:40:09and the people
00:40:10he sent
00:40:10almost got detained
00:40:11as security threats.
00:40:14He stayed in Anchorage
00:40:15for two days.
00:40:16Still found nothing.
00:40:19In the end,
00:40:20he had to go back
00:40:21to New York.
00:40:23What he didn't know
00:40:25was,
00:40:25I'd already left Anchorage.
00:40:30Other than that hair clip,
00:40:32I left him nothing
00:40:33to follow.
00:40:35Even after Adrian
00:40:36left Anchorage,
00:40:37he didn't stop.
00:40:39He had Sophia
00:40:40followed again.
00:40:41and tracked down
00:40:42everyone who knew me.
00:40:45Chasing every lead
00:40:45he could.
00:40:51It kept snowballing.
00:40:52More and more people
00:40:53were trying to find out
00:40:54where I was.
00:40:58No matter who asked,
00:40:59my answer was the same.
00:41:00No comment.
00:41:01That didn't stop them.
00:41:02It just made them
00:41:02more curious about
00:41:03what happened between us.
00:41:04Finally,
00:41:04I'd had enough.
00:41:05I unblocked Adrian myself.
00:41:06I sent him everything I had.
00:41:07His City Hall marriage
00:41:08certificate with Vanessa Black,
00:41:09the wedding portraits,
00:41:10the honeymoon records,
00:41:11every scrap of proof
00:41:11they'd been carrying on
00:41:12behind my back.
00:41:13I sent that too.
00:41:13Every taunting DM Vanessa
00:41:14sent me after the hospital
00:41:15and every intimate photo.
00:41:16I wasn't trying to prove
00:41:17how badly he'd hurt me.
00:41:18I just wanted him to know
00:41:19I saw the whole truth
00:41:20and I'd never forgive him.
00:41:26after all that,
00:41:27I left the little Alaska beach town
00:41:29I'd been hiding out in
00:41:30for the past few days
00:41:31and boarded a flight to Paris.
00:41:35Back in New York,
00:41:36when Adrian saw
00:41:37I'd messaged him first,
00:41:38he didn't even open the file.
00:41:41He thought I'd finally
00:41:42forgiven him.
00:41:51He didn't even read
00:41:52what I'd sent.
00:41:53He saw my name
00:41:55and took it as proof
00:41:56I was ready to go back to him.
00:41:59Message after message
00:42:00disappeared into silence.
00:42:02The first rush wore off
00:42:03and he started waiting
00:42:05for my reply.
00:42:06One hour,
00:42:07then two.
00:42:10He waited from morning
00:42:11to night.
00:42:12I never replied
00:42:14and those short apologies
00:42:16turned into endless paragraphs.
00:42:18I hurt you.
00:42:20I know that now.
00:42:21Just come back
00:42:24and I'll spend the rest
00:42:25of my life making it right.
00:42:29Lila, don't ignore me.
00:42:30Punish me any way you want.
00:42:37He waited all day.
00:42:38clutching his phone.
00:42:41Only after the screen shattered
00:42:43did he finally open
00:42:44the files I sent.
00:42:46For the first time,
00:42:48he saw that other marriage
00:42:49through my eyes.
00:42:55The city hall marriage,
00:42:57the wedding portraits,
00:42:58the honeymoon,
00:42:59every last part of it.
00:43:04He finally saw
00:43:05how every gift,
00:43:06every moment,
00:43:07every touch
00:43:08he gave Vanessa
00:43:08had been laid out
00:43:09in front of me
00:43:10like a knife.
00:43:15Only then
00:43:16did he begin to imagine
00:43:17what it cost me
00:43:18to know everything
00:43:21and still spend
00:43:22those last two weeks
00:43:23by his side,
00:43:26swallowing my disgust.
00:43:30If I'd done any of that
00:43:31with another man,
00:43:32Adrian would have gone insane.
00:43:34But back then,
00:43:35he really thought
00:43:36I'd never find out.
00:43:43If she hadn't
00:43:44taunt you on purpose,
00:43:46you wouldn't have
00:43:47walked away for good.
00:43:52Leela,
00:43:53I'll make her pay.
00:43:58He finally saw
00:43:59his own betrayal,
00:44:00but he still refused
00:44:01to bear it alone.
00:44:02So he turned
00:44:03all his rage
00:44:04over losing me
00:44:05on Vanessa instead.
00:44:07He'd taken that road
00:44:08countless times.
00:44:09While I was asleep,
00:44:11he was on his way
00:44:12to Vanessa.
00:44:16Mr. Hawthorne,
00:44:18Mrs. Black is showering.
00:44:21Every other time,
00:44:22he came to her
00:44:23out of desire.
00:44:25Tonight,
00:44:26he came with enough hate
00:44:27to destroy Vanessa.
00:44:29Adrian?
00:44:30What are you doing
00:44:31here this late?
00:44:36Vanessa thought
00:44:37Adrian Hawthorne
00:44:38had finally remembered her.
00:44:41She went after him
00:44:42the way she always did,
00:44:44never seeing that
00:44:45all he felt now
00:44:46was disgust.
00:44:49Vanessa was never subtle.
00:44:52Adrian always knew
00:44:53she was after
00:44:54the Hawthorne family's
00:44:55money and status.
00:44:57What we had
00:44:58had grown dull
00:44:58by routine.
00:45:06Vanessa gave him
00:45:07the thrill
00:45:07he started craving.
00:45:10Maybe he felt guilty
00:45:11the first time.
00:45:16I trusted him
00:45:17too much
00:45:18and one time
00:45:19became countless times.
00:45:23I warned you.
00:45:27Lila was never
00:45:27supposed to find out
00:45:28about us.
00:45:31The second she heard
00:45:32that,
00:45:33she knew.
00:45:34The evidence
00:45:35I sent Adrian
00:45:36had exposed
00:45:36everything she'd done.
00:45:38what are you talking
00:45:39about?
00:45:41I never contacted Lila.
00:45:43She must have
00:45:44heard it from
00:45:44someone else.
00:45:50Vanessa had already
00:45:51deleted the messages.
00:45:53She'd even
00:45:53unfollowed me.
00:45:55The page was blank,
00:45:56like she'd never
00:45:56sent me anything.
00:45:58See?
00:45:59I never contacted her.
00:46:04You think deleting
00:46:05the messages
00:46:06makes me believe you?
00:46:07What she didn't know
00:46:08was that I'd saved
00:46:09every message and photo
00:46:10she used to humiliate me,
00:46:11then sent them all
00:46:13to Adrian.
00:46:17Adrian,
00:46:18let me stand up.
00:46:18I'm pregnant
00:46:19with your babies.
00:46:22I was jealous
00:46:23of Lila.
00:46:24I couldn't stand
00:46:25watching you
00:46:26marry someone else.
00:46:28I did it
00:46:29because I loved you.
00:46:32Adrian,
00:46:33please forgive me.
00:46:34I'm pregnant
00:46:35with our babies.
00:46:37She called her
00:46:38taunts,
00:46:38lies,
00:46:39and scheming love.
00:46:41She thought
00:46:42bringing up the twins
00:46:43would make Adrian
00:46:43loosen his grip.
00:46:46I gave you the money
00:46:47and the life you wanted.
00:46:50but you wanted more.
00:46:52You had to drive Lila
00:46:53away and take her place.
00:46:57Vanessa thought
00:46:58she'd finally won,
00:46:59but once she drove me away,
00:47:01Adrian blamed her
00:47:02for losing me.
00:47:04Call Mrs. Hawthorne
00:47:05now!
00:47:10Your parents
00:47:11accepted the babies
00:47:12I'm carrying.
00:47:13You can't do this
00:47:15to me.
00:47:18Lila's gone.
00:47:19What gives you the right
00:47:20to carry my children?
00:47:27She tumbled down
00:47:28the stairs.
00:47:29Even with both hands
00:47:31over her stomach,
00:47:32blood quickly soaked
00:47:33through the towel
00:47:34around her.
00:47:37My babies!
00:47:38Save my babies!
00:47:44The bleeding on the wedding day
00:47:46had only been a scare.
00:47:47This time,
00:47:49Vanessa could feel
00:47:50both lives
00:47:50inside her slipping away.
00:47:52Adrian,
00:47:53you're a coward!
00:47:55Lila left
00:47:56and you dumped
00:47:56all of it on me.
00:47:58But before I ever
00:48:00contacted her,
00:48:01she already knew
00:48:02you were cheating!
00:48:06You couldn't control yourself.
00:48:08You kept saying
00:48:09you loved her,
00:48:10but you kept
00:48:11crawling into my bed.
00:48:14She made me the bride
00:48:16to get back at you.
00:48:18You're the one
00:48:18who drove her away.
00:48:23You killed your own children.
00:48:28She hit the truth
00:48:29Adrian most wanted
00:48:30to deny.
00:48:31Even then,
00:48:32he still refused
00:48:33to admit
00:48:33that he was the one
00:48:34responsible for all of it.
00:48:36Not long after
00:48:37the nanny called,
00:48:38the ambulance got there.
00:48:39Then Eleanor and Richard.
00:48:42Vanessa's blood
00:48:42covered the stairs
00:48:43and the floor.
00:48:50You bastard!
00:48:52Haven't you caused
00:48:53enough damage already?
00:48:54Were you trying
00:48:55to get Vanessa
00:48:56and both babies killed too?
00:49:00A woman I kept
00:49:01on the side
00:49:03thinks she can
00:49:04take Lila's place?
00:49:09Adrian felt
00:49:09no remorse.
00:49:12He actually believed
00:49:13Vanessa and the
00:49:14babies were the last
00:49:15obstacle keeping me
00:49:16from going back.
00:49:18Lila won't forgive me
00:49:19because of the babies.
00:49:23Now that they're gone,
00:49:24she'll get over it.
00:49:27We couldn't save
00:49:28either baby.
00:49:33She lost too much blood
00:49:35and there was damage
00:49:36during surgery.
00:49:38She may never be able
00:49:40to have children.
00:49:41Neither baby survived.
00:49:42worse,
00:49:44Vanessa may never be able
00:49:45to have children again.
00:49:51I'm calling the police.
00:49:53Adrian pushed me
00:49:54down the stairs.
00:49:54I'm gonna make sure
00:49:56he goes to prison!
00:50:03Vanessa screamed
00:50:04for the police.
00:50:06Elinor stayed behind
00:50:07to handle this trouble
00:50:08that could destroy
00:50:09the Hawthorne family.
00:50:12As for what conditions
00:50:14she used to make
00:50:14Vanessa stay silent,
00:50:16Adrian didn't care at all.
00:50:19Where are you going?
00:50:21Home.
00:50:23I'm going to wait
00:50:24for Lila to come back.
00:50:26Even then,
00:50:28he still believed
00:50:28that if Vanessa
00:50:29and the babies were gone,
00:50:31I'd forget everything
00:50:32he'd done
00:50:33and go back to him.
00:50:35Adrian moved back
00:50:36into that apartment.
00:50:39Everything I took with me,
00:50:41our photos,
00:50:42our things,
00:50:43the decor,
00:50:44he bought back
00:50:45from memory.
00:50:47On the surface,
00:50:49nothing had changed.
00:50:51But every piece
00:50:52was a replica.
00:50:53And nothing in that room
00:50:54still felt like me.
00:51:13He told an empty chair
00:51:15he'd gotten revenge
00:51:16for me.
00:51:16Even then,
00:51:17he still didn't understand.
00:51:19I never asked him
00:51:20to hurt Vanessa,
00:51:21and I never wanted justice
00:51:23at the cost
00:51:23of two babies.
00:51:24He tried to numb himself
00:51:26with alcohol,
00:51:27as if getting drunk enough
00:51:28could spare him the truth
00:51:29that I was never coming back.
00:51:32All the care
00:51:33he used to take for granted
00:51:34had become a past
00:51:35he could only touch
00:51:36through a shattered screen.
00:51:38But one more scroll,
00:51:39and he'd see it again.
00:51:40What I saw
00:51:41when I learned the truth,
00:51:42and the humiliation
00:51:43I was forced to endure.
00:51:44After I left,
00:51:45except for that one collapse,
00:51:47he never slept peacefully again.
00:51:48He could restore that home
00:51:49to what it was,
00:51:50but it wouldn't change the truth.
00:51:52None of it was real.
00:51:55When Adrian woke up,
00:51:57it was already
00:51:58the next afternoon.
00:52:01In the brutal summer heat,
00:52:02the pasta and stale liquor
00:52:04had turned.
00:52:07The whole apartment reefed,
00:52:09and he acted like
00:52:11he couldn't smell a thing.
00:52:12And the days just kept passing.
00:52:16He never heard a word from me.
00:52:20In a little over a month,
00:52:22a man who'd always
00:52:23kept himself in check
00:52:24was drowning in cigarettes
00:52:26and alcohol.
00:52:29Eleanor tried again and again
00:52:31to pull him out of it.
00:52:33In the end,
00:52:34she brought in a therapist.
00:52:36Adrian wouldn't talk,
00:52:38wouldn't cooperate,
00:52:39and nothing worked.
00:52:42once he was drunk
00:52:43out of his mind.
00:52:46Leela,
00:52:47you hated it
00:52:47when I drank and smoked.
00:52:51So why won't you come back
00:52:52and stop me?
00:52:58He started seeing me
00:52:59in front of him again.
00:53:00The face looked like mine,
00:53:02but it wasn't me.
00:53:04Adrian,
00:53:05why'd you drink so much again?
00:53:07He knew it felt like a dream.
00:53:12Lila,
00:53:13it's really you.
00:53:15But he didn't want to wake up.
00:53:20I've been looking for you.
00:53:22You finally came back to me.
00:53:24You're exhausted.
00:53:26Go get some rest.
00:53:27I'm not going anywhere.
00:53:30If the woman in his arms was me,
00:53:32he'd believe it,
00:53:33even as a hallucination.
00:53:36But just before he crossed
00:53:37that last line,
00:53:39he finally saw the truth.
00:53:43The face looked like mine,
00:53:46but it wasn't me.
00:53:50Who are you?
00:53:52Where's Lila?
00:53:56What did you do to her?
00:54:04The girl Adrian mistook for me
00:54:06was Emily Bennett,
00:54:07my half-sister.
00:54:10Three years younger,
00:54:11and just enough like me
00:54:13to fool him.
00:54:15Charles betrayed my mother,
00:54:17Margaret,
00:54:17long before she died.
00:54:19Emily was the child of that affair.
00:54:22Eleanor couldn't stand
00:54:23watching Adrian destroy himself
00:54:25over me.
00:54:26So she cut a deal
00:54:28with the Bennett family
00:54:30and sent Emily in
00:54:32to make him forget me.
00:54:33You're Lila's sister.
00:54:36call her.
00:54:37Bring her back,
00:54:39and I'll give you
00:54:39anything you want.
00:54:41Why are you even looking
00:54:42for trash that her own
00:54:43family threw away?
00:54:47No one talks about Lila
00:54:48like that.
00:54:49One more word,
00:54:50and I'll kill you.
00:54:56Lila,
00:54:57it's Emily.
00:54:58Dad's critically ill.
00:54:59He wants to see you.
00:55:02It had been so long,
00:55:03I'd almost forgotten
00:55:04I even had a father
00:55:05and a half-sister.
00:55:08Whether Charles lived
00:55:09or died
00:55:09had nothing to do
00:55:10with me anymore.
00:55:13I have nothing to do
00:55:14with the Bennett family anymore.
00:55:16Don't call me
00:55:17about them again.
00:55:20No wonder Dad
00:55:21didn't want you.
00:55:23You deserve to be
00:55:24abandoned by him
00:55:25and by Adrian.
00:55:29Adrian told you
00:55:30to make this call,
00:55:30didn't he?
00:55:32So what if he did?
00:55:38The second I heard
00:55:39Adrian's name,
00:55:40I knew it was
00:55:41a pathetic setup.
00:55:42I wasn't about
00:55:43to play along.
00:55:47Lila,
00:55:48I never meant
00:55:49to leave you.
00:55:54He only managed
00:55:55to say that
00:55:56before passing out
00:55:57from too much blood loss.
00:55:58Adrian had been
00:55:59unconscious
00:55:59for two full days.
00:56:01Lila?
00:56:04Even then,
00:56:05he kept murmuring
00:56:06my name in his sleep.
00:56:07It's just a subconscious
00:56:08response.
00:56:09He isn't really awake yet.
00:56:10Adrian, wake up
00:56:11and I'll beg Lila
00:56:12to come see you.
00:56:13But if you don't,
00:56:14you'll never see her again.
00:56:16Mom,
00:56:17I want to see Lila.
00:56:19Maybe those words,
00:56:20you'll never see her again,
00:56:21brought him back.
00:56:22The second he woke up,
00:56:24he told Eleanor
00:56:25to call me.
00:56:26Eleanor kept calling.
00:56:32I finally answered,
00:56:33but I couldn't talk to her
00:56:34the way I used to.
00:56:36What is it?
00:56:38Lila, please,
00:56:39don't hang up yet.
00:56:44Since you left,
00:56:45Adrian's been looking for you.
00:56:46he hurt you.
00:56:48He knows that now.
00:56:50Can you give him
00:56:51one more chance?
00:56:53Or at least come see him?
00:56:56It had been almost
00:56:57three months
00:56:57since I left New York.
00:56:59After drifting for a while,
00:57:01I ended up in Paris,
00:57:02and I liked my life there.
00:57:04But Adrian never stopped
00:57:06looking for me.
00:57:08To keep him from finding me,
00:57:09I couldn't post anything online
00:57:11or let my friends mention
00:57:12where I was.
00:57:15I couldn't keep hiding forever.
00:57:17Some things had to be said
00:57:18face to face
00:57:19if I wanted him to stop.
00:57:21I'll be back in New York
00:57:22in a week.
00:57:23I'll contact you then.
00:57:32Lila's coming back?
00:57:37I can't let her see me like this.
00:57:42Get Daniel here.
00:57:44I want tests done now.
00:57:47He thought if I'd agreed to see him,
00:57:49we still had a chance.
00:57:51But I was only going back
00:57:53to end it myself.
00:57:54The hope of seeing me again
00:57:56was enough.
00:57:58This time,
00:57:59no one had to force Adrian
00:58:00into treatment.
00:58:02Three days later,
00:58:04he checked himself out
00:58:05against medical advice.
00:58:07After that,
00:58:08he had the greenhouse
00:58:09expanded day and night.
00:58:11He brought in
00:58:12hundreds of pear trees
00:58:15and kept the blossoms alive
00:58:17through the summer
00:58:18by controlling the temperature.
00:58:20He even had a new ring made.
00:58:25He was going to propose again
00:58:26when he saw me.
00:58:28Adrian chose the greenhouse
00:58:29on purpose.
00:58:32He thought if he could recreate
00:58:34where our love began,
00:58:36I'd remember everything.
00:58:40He waited all morning.
00:58:41It was past noon
00:58:43when I finally walked
00:58:44into the greenhouse.
00:58:48The second I walked in,
00:58:51I saw the pear trees
00:58:52he'd had brought in.
00:58:54It was the middle of summer,
00:58:55but every branch was in bloom
00:58:57and white petals
00:58:58covered the floor.
00:59:02Lila.
00:59:06I said yes to him
00:59:07in pear blossom season.
00:59:10Adrian must have thought
00:59:11the same scene
00:59:12would make me come back to him.
00:59:15I'd already guessed
00:59:16from Ellador's tears,
00:59:18but seeing him still
00:59:19caught me off guard.
00:59:21In just three months,
00:59:23he'd gotten so thin
00:59:24his suit barely hung on him.
00:59:28But I felt nothing.
00:59:30Whatever he's suffering now
00:59:32doesn't undo
00:59:33what he did to me.
00:59:36Say what you need to say.
00:59:37Quickly.
00:59:41After today,
00:59:42stay out of my life.
00:59:44He'd probably rehearsed
00:59:46a hundred things
00:59:46for this moment.
00:59:49But when he finally saw me,
00:59:51all he could say
00:59:52was that he missed me.
00:59:54He was sorry
00:59:55and he wanted me back.
01:00:00Lila, I really miss you.
01:00:05I'm done with Vanessa.
01:00:06Completely.
01:00:07And the babies are gone,
01:00:09so no one can come
01:00:09between us anymore.
01:00:13He took Vanessa's loss
01:00:14of those two babies
01:00:15as proof he'd changed.
01:00:18But I never asked him
01:00:19to hurt anyone.
01:00:21And I didn't need
01:00:22someone else's pain
01:00:23to earn my forgiveness.
01:00:25You think I left
01:00:26just because of Vanessa
01:00:27and the babies?
01:00:28I know I was wrong.
01:00:30It was a momentary thrill.
01:00:32It meant nothing
01:00:33compared to what we had.
01:00:37Just come back.
01:00:39We'll do the wedding over.
01:00:41The marriage certificate,
01:00:42the ring,
01:00:43the dress.
01:00:46whatever you want,
01:00:47I'll get it all again.
01:00:49I swear,
01:00:49I'll never betray you again.
01:00:51He sounded completely sincere,
01:00:54like another wedding
01:00:55could somehow restore
01:00:56the trust he'd torn apart.
01:00:59Adrian,
01:01:00if I hadn't found out
01:01:01about you two,
01:01:03if I hadn't disappeared
01:01:05from the wedding,
01:01:06would you really have ended
01:01:08things with Vanessa
01:01:08on your own?
01:01:12would you still believe
01:01:13betraying me was wrong?
01:01:15I would have.
01:01:19Even if you hadn't left,
01:01:20I would have ended it
01:01:20with her sooner or later.
01:01:22He answered too quickly,
01:01:24and he still couldn't
01:01:25meet my eyes.
01:01:27After all these years,
01:01:28I know better than anyone
01:01:29when he's lying.
01:01:30No, you wouldn't.
01:01:32If I hadn't found out,
01:01:34he would have hidden
01:01:35Vanessa better,
01:01:36covered his tracks,
01:01:37and kept playing
01:01:38the loving fiancé.
01:01:41You don't regret
01:01:42betraying me.
01:01:44You regret getting caught.
01:01:47You don't get to condemn me
01:01:48for something
01:01:49that never happened.
01:01:50But you did betray me.
01:01:54The city hall marriage,
01:01:55the wedding portraits,
01:01:57the honeymoon,
01:01:57the two babies,
01:01:59you chose every one of them.
01:02:05I didn't come back
01:02:06to New York
01:02:07to measure his regret.
01:02:08I came back to tell him,
01:02:10to his face,
01:02:12that we were over.
01:02:22I don't accept this.
01:02:24I can make you stay.
01:02:26You're not going anywhere
01:02:27without my permission.
01:02:29Adrian,
01:02:29all your power
01:02:30still doesn't give you
01:02:31the right to hold me here.
01:02:33Mr. Hawthorne,
01:02:35please let go
01:02:35of my girlfriend.
01:02:36Who are you?
01:02:38Julian Laurent.
01:02:42Lila's boyfriend.
01:02:49No.
01:02:50That's impossible.
01:02:51How long has it been
01:02:52since you left me?
01:02:54how could you already
01:02:55love someone else?
01:02:56Why not?
01:03:01Lila,
01:03:02this is just revenge,
01:03:04isn't it?
01:03:05You brought him here
01:03:05to hurt me.
01:03:07He'd rather believe
01:03:08Julian was just someone
01:03:09I brought in to hurt him
01:03:11than face the truth.
01:03:12I'd really moved on.
01:03:18I don't need to use my feelings
01:03:19to get back at you.
01:03:22I'm with Julian
01:03:23because I like him.
01:03:28Adrian brought in
01:03:29hundreds of pear trees,
01:03:30hoping I'd love him again.
01:03:33But pear blossoms in summer,
01:03:35like us,
01:03:36were only an illusion
01:03:37kept alive by force.
01:03:42You said you'd only
01:03:43ever love me.
01:03:44Before you betrayed me.
01:03:59Lila,
01:04:00you've only been gone
01:04:01from New York
01:04:01for three months
01:04:02and you already
01:04:03have a new boyfriend?
01:04:07He almost died
01:04:08looking for you.
01:04:10You knew he couldn't
01:04:11let you go,
01:04:12so why bring another man back
01:04:13just to provoke him?
01:04:15She was grieving
01:04:16for her son,
01:04:17as if she'd forgotten
01:04:18that three months ago
01:04:18I stood right beside Adrian
01:04:20and watched him claim
01:04:21another wife
01:04:21and two children.
01:04:23So I'm cruel
01:04:24for moving on?
01:04:26Then what was Adrian
01:04:27marrying Vanessa
01:04:28at City Hall
01:04:28while he was planning
01:04:29our wedding?
01:04:33You knew about them
01:04:34all along
01:04:35and you helped him
01:04:35keep it from me.
01:04:37So what right
01:04:38do you have
01:04:38to ask me
01:04:39to answer
01:04:39for his regret?
01:04:40He made one
01:04:41terrible mistake.
01:04:44Does everything
01:04:45you had together
01:04:45really count
01:04:46for less than that?
01:04:48To you it was
01:04:49one mistake.
01:04:50To me it was betrayal
01:04:51over and over again.
01:04:55I once thought
01:04:56the Hawthorne family
01:04:57was my home.
01:04:59I truly saw
01:05:01Eleanor as a mother.
01:05:03but when the betrayal
01:05:04came
01:05:04they protected
01:05:06Adrian first.
01:05:08Every time.
01:05:12I never looked back.
01:05:14That day
01:05:14I didn't just leave
01:05:16Adrian.
01:05:16I left the Hawthorne family
01:05:18for good.
01:05:21Julian and I
01:05:22didn't get together
01:05:23to get back
01:05:24at Adrian.
01:05:25When I first
01:05:26got to Paris
01:05:28I rented an apartment
01:05:29through a broker.
01:05:32After I paid
01:05:33the deposit
01:05:34I found out
01:05:35he didn't even
01:05:36own the place.
01:05:39Julian lived nearby.
01:05:43He realized
01:05:44I'd been scammed.
01:05:47Helped me report it
01:05:51and get my deposit
01:05:52back.
01:05:54Then found me
01:05:55an apartment
01:05:56I could actually
01:05:57move into.
01:06:02After that
01:06:02we went from
01:06:03neighbors
01:06:04who ran into
01:06:05each other
01:06:05now and then
01:06:06to friends.
01:06:08He knew
01:06:09I was from
01:06:09New York
01:06:11but he never
01:06:11asked why I'd
01:06:12left
01:06:14or tried to
01:06:14dig into a past
01:06:15that was already
01:06:16over.
01:06:18He respected
01:06:19my silence
01:06:20and when I
01:06:21needed him
01:06:21he was there.
01:06:24With him
01:06:25there was no
01:06:25probing
01:06:26no lies
01:06:27no secrets.
01:06:29Little by little
01:06:30I let my guard
01:06:31down
01:06:32when he told
01:06:33me how he felt
01:06:36Lila I like
01:06:37you.
01:06:39For the first
01:06:39time
01:06:41I didn't
01:06:42shut the door
01:06:43on something
01:06:43new
01:06:44because of
01:06:45what I'd
01:06:45been through.
01:06:50I used to
01:06:51think that
01:06:52because Adrian
01:06:52saved me
01:06:53and grew
01:06:53up with me
01:06:54he'd love
01:06:55me forever
01:06:55but love
01:06:56isn't a
01:06:57contract.
01:07:00What we
01:07:01had was
01:07:01real
01:07:02so does
01:07:03the betrayal.
01:07:05I don't
01:07:05have to
01:07:05deny the
01:07:06past
01:07:06and I
01:07:07won't let
01:07:08it close
01:07:08me off
01:07:08to what's
01:07:09next.
01:07:14if you're
01:07:14not ready
01:07:15I'll keep
01:07:15waiting.
01:07:16You don't
01:07:17have to
01:07:17wait anymore.
01:07:23let's
01:07:24try.
01:07:25Leaving
01:07:26Adrian
01:07:26doesn't
01:07:27mean I
01:07:27stopped
01:07:27believing
01:07:27in love.
01:07:31If
01:07:32anything
01:07:32it
01:07:33taught me
01:07:33real love
01:07:34can't be
01:07:34built on
01:07:34lies and
01:07:35betrayal.
01:07:37I was
01:07:38strong enough
01:07:39to walk
01:07:39away from
01:07:39a love
01:07:40that had
01:07:40already
01:07:41rotted.
01:07:43I'm
01:07:43strong enough
01:07:44to accept
01:07:44someone's
01:07:45honest heart
01:07:45now.
01:07:49After I
01:07:50got back to
01:07:50Paris,
01:07:51Adrian
01:07:51landed in the
01:07:52hospital again.
01:07:53when he
01:07:54woke up
01:07:55he shut
01:07:56everyone
01:07:56out.
01:08:03How long
01:08:04are you
01:08:04going to
01:08:04keep
01:08:04destroying
01:08:05yourself
01:08:05over a
01:08:06woman
01:08:06who
01:08:07doesn't
01:08:07want
01:08:07you
01:08:07anymore?

01:08:35had
01:08:35aged
01:08:36so
01:08:36much.
01:08:38He
01:08:38was
01:08:38frozen
01:08:39after
01:08:39losing
01:08:40me,
01:08:40but
01:08:41everyone
01:08:41else
01:08:41was
01:08:41still
01:08:42paying
01:08:42for
01:08:42his
01:08:42mistakes.
01:08:50Notify
01:08:51Daniel.
01:08:55tomorrow I'm
01:08:56going back
01:08:56to Hawthorne
01:08:57group
01:08:57and back
01:08:58to family
01:08:58headquarters.
01:09:00Adrian took
01:09:01back Hawthorne
01:09:02group and
01:09:02reclaimed the
01:09:03New York
01:09:03underworld.
01:09:04He buried
01:09:04his obsession
01:09:05with finding
01:09:06me and
01:09:07became the
01:09:07man everyone
01:09:08feared again.
01:09:13In under
01:09:13three months,
01:09:14the families
01:09:15that moved
01:09:15in on his
01:09:16business
01:09:16lost their
01:09:17companies,
01:09:18shipping routes
01:09:19and casinos.
01:09:21The ones
01:09:22who'd
01:09:22waited for
01:09:22him to
01:09:23fall
01:09:23came to
01:09:24apologize
01:09:24in person.
01:09:27Everyone
01:09:27thought he
01:09:28was finally
01:09:28back to
01:09:29normal.
01:09:30Only
01:09:31Eleanor
01:09:31and Richard
01:09:32knew
01:09:32he'd
01:09:33just
01:09:33learned
01:09:33to
01:09:33hide
01:09:34the
01:09:34pain
01:09:34again.
01:09:43You
01:09:43can
01:09:44meet
01:09:44her
01:09:44first.
01:09:50Don't
01:09:51ever put
01:09:51another
01:09:52woman in
01:09:52front of
01:09:52me.
01:09:55He had
01:09:55his power
01:09:56back,
01:09:56his money,
01:09:57everyone's
01:09:58fear.
01:10:01And
01:10:02still,
01:10:02he went
01:10:03back to
01:10:04that fake
01:10:04version
01:10:04of our
01:10:05old
01:10:05home
01:10:06and fell
01:10:07asleep
01:10:07with my
01:10:08pictures.
01:10:10Once
01:10:11Hawthorne
01:10:11Group moved
01:10:12into Paris,
01:10:14Adrian finally
01:10:15learned Julian
01:10:16came from
01:10:17an old
01:10:17family,
01:10:18with more
01:10:19than enough
01:10:19money and
01:10:20power to
01:10:20protect me.
01:10:22He stopped
01:10:23coming after
01:10:23me.
01:10:25Instead,
01:10:26he opened
01:10:26an Italian
01:10:26restaurant near
01:10:27my place.
01:10:28It served
01:10:29one thing,
01:10:30spaghetti
01:10:30bolognese,
01:10:31my old
01:10:32favorite.
01:10:32I went
01:10:33once,
01:10:34one bite
01:10:35and I
01:10:35knew it
01:10:36was
01:10:36Adrian's.
01:10:39But my
01:10:40tastes had
01:10:40changed.
01:10:42After a few
01:10:42bites,
01:10:43I put down
01:10:43my fork
01:10:43and never
01:10:44went back.
01:10:51He even
01:10:51bought a
01:10:52pear orchard.
01:10:53Every year,
01:10:54he handpicked
01:10:55the best
01:10:55pears and
01:10:56sent them
01:10:56to me.
01:10:58The first
01:10:58few boxes
01:10:59came back
01:10:59unopened.
01:11:03Mr. Hawthorne,
01:11:04Ms. Bennett
01:11:05is getting
01:11:05married next
01:11:06month.
01:11:11On my
01:11:12wedding day,
01:11:13Adrian came
01:11:14too.
01:11:15He never
01:11:16stepped inside
01:11:17the church.
01:11:18He just
01:11:19stood back
01:11:19and watched
01:11:20Julian and me
01:11:21get married.
01:11:22For the first
01:11:23time,
01:11:24he saw it
01:11:25for himself.
01:11:27I was
01:11:27marrying
01:11:28someone else
01:11:30and the
01:11:31future he'd
01:11:31once thought
01:11:31was his
01:11:32ended that
01:11:33day.
01:11:34Years later,
01:11:35I had a
01:11:36child of my
01:11:36own.
01:11:41Adrian adopted
01:11:42a little girl
01:11:44who looked
01:11:44a little
01:11:45like me
01:11:45and raised
01:11:46her as
01:11:46his own.
01:11:51All the
01:11:51drinking,
01:11:52the blackouts,
01:11:53the times he
01:11:53checked himself
01:11:54out early,
01:11:55the damage
01:11:56was permanent.
01:11:58Even then,
01:11:59he kept
01:11:59going back
01:12:00and forth
01:12:00between New
01:12:01York and
01:12:01Paris.
01:12:03He never
01:12:04came to me
01:12:04again.
01:12:06He only
01:12:07watched from
01:12:07a distance,
01:12:10just to make
01:12:11sure I was
01:12:11safe and
01:12:12happy.
01:12:16Adrian thought
01:12:17I'd never
01:12:17leave,
01:12:18so he burned
01:12:18through my
01:12:19love without
01:12:19fear.
01:12:20Only after he
01:12:21lost me did
01:12:21he spend the
01:12:22rest of his
01:12:22life learning.
01:12:24Some people
01:12:25can regret it
01:12:26for the rest
01:12:26of their lives
01:12:27and still
01:12:27never be
01:12:28forgiven.
