00:00:01Let go!
00:00:02Ethan told me to wear a wedding dress.
00:00:04I'm the bride tonight.
00:00:07He told me to wear one too.
00:00:09He's promised to marry me since we were kids.
00:00:12Everything you have,
00:00:13you stole from me.
00:00:16Last night,
00:00:17he said he'd choose me in front of everyone.
00:00:21Ethan told me to put on a wedding dress.
00:00:24He said he'd choose me in front of everyone tonight.
00:00:28Put on your wedding dress.
00:00:29Tonight, I'll place the veil on you myself
00:00:32and show everyone you're the one
00:00:34I want to marry.
00:00:35Put on your wedding dress.
00:00:37Tonight, I'll place the veil on you myself
00:00:40and show everyone
00:00:41you're the one I want to marry.
00:00:44He sent me the exact same message!
00:00:46No way!
00:00:48You must have listened to my message.
00:00:51Give me the veil!
00:00:53You're the one who should let go!
00:00:54I'm the one Ethan has always wanted to marry!
00:00:57Oh my god!
00:00:58Oh my god!
00:01:06Why are you two fighting again?
00:01:08The board and the press are waiting.
00:01:09The engagement gala.
00:01:10The day Sophia and I fought over Ethan for the third time.
00:01:13I'm back for a third life?
00:01:26Ethan, give me back my baby. Why did you bring me here?
00:01:30In my first life, I signed the agreement and married Ethan.
00:01:34I gave up my career to bear his heir.
00:01:37And spent nine months under constant watch.
00:01:41You left your shares to the baby and put me in charge of his trust.
00:01:45You tricked me into signing.
00:01:46You said they were just forms for the birth.
00:01:48It doesn't matter.
00:01:50Now that he's born, the shares belong to him.
00:01:55As for you,
00:01:57there's no reason to keep you alive.
00:02:01This is a cult.
00:02:03You're going to sacrifice me?
00:02:05Every male heir in my family must be born through the sacrifice of his mother.
00:02:11I'm your wife!
00:02:12I just gave birth to your child!
00:02:14You can't do this to me!
00:02:16You gave birth to him.
00:02:18That makes you the perfect sacrifice.
00:02:20You said you loved me since we were kids.
00:02:23Was all of it a lie?
00:02:24I only pursued you for your shares and bloodline.
00:02:27You were the perfect woman to bear my heir.
00:02:29Then who do you really love?
00:02:30Sophia.
00:02:31Once the sacrifice is complete, she'll take your place as the baby's mother.
00:02:34No!
00:02:34Only in death did I finally understand.
00:02:37I was a sacrifice.
00:02:38Meant to bear his heir and give his cult my shares and my life.
00:02:42In my second life, I thought Ethan loved Sophia.
00:02:44So I stepped aside and gave my sister both Ethan and my shares.
00:02:49But just three months after Sophia married Ethan...
00:02:53Sophia?
00:02:54Who did this to you?
00:02:57Ethan?
00:02:58He tampered with my breaks.
00:03:01Chloe, he's a monster!
00:03:04In that life, Ethan staged Sophia's crash less than three months into their marriage.
00:03:11Go!
00:03:12Ethan's about to announce which one of you he'll marry.
00:03:15No!
00:03:18In both lives, it didn't matter which of us married him.
00:03:22He destroyed us both.
00:03:25This time, I will never be his again.
00:03:36You took over Cross Global today.
00:03:41Coming to a debtor's engagement Gila without security is too risky.
00:03:46I'm here to see if the Bennett group is worth saving, not to be welcomed.
00:03:49The board is still waiting to hear whether you want to acquire them.
00:03:54They think a marriage can save a failing company.
00:03:57How naive.
00:04:00And Mrs. Cross sent profiles of 30 more socialized.
00:04:03Send them all back.
00:04:04I'll choose my own wife.
00:04:07Looks like we're just in time for a show.
00:04:12Miss Bennett, sign this, and I'll make you my wife.
00:04:17Just like the last two times, he only says Miss Bennett. Never Chloe or Sophia.
00:04:23Chloe, the cameras are rolling. You've waited years for this.
00:04:27I won't sign. And I won't marry you.
00:04:35Chloe, do you have any idea what you're saying?
00:04:38I didn't know better then. Now I do.
00:04:40This merger was settled long ago!
00:04:43Let the shareholders vote on the merger.
00:04:45The board doesn't get a vote on my marriage.
00:04:49If she rejects Ethan, will Ward Capital call in its loan?
00:04:52Without the Ward's money, the Bennett group won't last three months.
00:04:55I have the agreement. Everyone knows you'll be my fiancé tonight.
00:05:01That agreement fell while Sophia and I fought over it.
00:05:03I never gave it to you.
00:05:05Then why are you wearing my ring?
00:05:10Because I was blind.
00:05:14Besides, I already have a fiancé.
00:05:19Your fiancé?
00:05:20Chloe, since when do you have a fiancé?
00:05:22Whatever it takes.
00:05:23If this makes Ethan back off, I'll sell the lie.
00:05:27He's right here.
00:05:36Did she just say I'm her fiancé?
00:05:39Chloe!
00:05:40That temporary waiter can't be your fiancé?
00:05:49Chloe, you turned down the heir to Ward Capital for some waiter?
00:05:56So what if he's a waiter?
00:05:57I choose the man, not his money.
00:06:12Ethan, you killed Sophia and me twice.
00:06:15This time, I'd rather marry a penniless stranger than ever be your pawn again.
00:06:22She rejected the merger in front of both boards and the press.
00:06:26Now that's interesting.
00:06:28Apologize to Ethan right now!
00:06:33Honey, tell them we're getting married.
00:06:37Of course.
00:06:40Mr. Bennett, both companies publicly announced the engagement and merger.
00:06:44If you back out now, Ward Capital can reconsider the partnership.
00:06:48Chloe, stop this nonsense!
00:06:50Ethan already has the agreement!
00:06:51I told you, I didn't give it to him.
00:06:54Then who agreed to give Mr. Ward her voting proxy?
00:06:57The Bennetts have two daughters.
00:06:59If Chloe won't sign, Sophia can!
00:07:14Sophia, you've always wanted to marry Ethan.
00:07:16Chloe stepped aside.
00:07:17You can sign instead!
00:07:24Ethan Ward!
00:07:25How dare you still ask either of us to marry you!
00:07:29Sophia?
00:07:31Sophia came back too?
00:07:43Ms. Bennett, this agreement affects both companies.
00:07:46You'd better answer for what you just did.
00:07:49Let go!
00:07:51Without my signature, there is no deal.
00:07:54She's overwhelmed.
00:07:56I won't hold this against her.
00:07:58Of course you won't.
00:08:00You're still waiting for me to sign over the company and myself.
00:08:04You never used to speak to me like this.
00:08:08The woman I used to be is dead.
00:08:13She remembers.
00:08:15She remembers her last life.
00:08:17Ward Capital is the only firm willing to help the Bennetts Group, and they both turned Ethan down?
00:08:22Chloe even chose some nobody.
00:08:25The Bennetts Group's loan is due in 72 hours.
00:08:29One of them must accept my proposal and sign over her voting proxy by then.
00:08:33Marriage and business are separate matters.
00:08:35Not to me.
00:08:36Ethan, we can renegotiate the terms.
00:08:39Of course.
00:08:40Either Chloe signs or Sophia does.
00:08:43Otherwise, Ward Capital won't extend the loan or stop the other creditors from taking over the hotel.
00:08:50You have three days to change your minds.
00:08:57Thanks for playing along.
00:08:59Otherwise, Ethan wouldn't believe I was done with him.
00:09:01Playing along?
00:09:02You declared me your fiancé before I could react.
00:09:05I called you my fiancé, so I'll make it convincing.
00:09:08But if you want out, I won't stop you.
00:09:12Ethan won't give up.
00:09:14If he learns we're pretending, he'll keep forcing her to sign over her voting rights.
00:09:18Miss Bennetts, you were convincing.
00:09:20But one lie won't sell an engagement.
00:09:22Give me some time, and I'll meet your family properly.
00:09:26All right.
00:09:30This is the old key to the first hotel my mother entrusted to me.
00:09:33Carry it, and people will believe we're together.
00:09:42My father left this to me.
00:09:44Now I entrust it to you.
00:09:47This is too much. I can't.
00:09:49You really don't mind?
00:09:51To everyone here, I'm just an ordinary man.
00:09:53With no company, no family name, and no one worth investigating.
00:09:59A man in a custom suit can be a liar.
00:10:01A man in an old jacket can be more trustworthy than anyone in the boardroom.
00:10:05Money and a last name don't define someone's worth.
00:10:08She didn't reject Ethan for someone richer.
00:10:10She truly refuses to trade her life for money.
00:10:15Since you chose me, I won't let you face the wards alone.
00:10:27The board and your mother are waiting for you.
00:10:29No one knows their new CEO attended a Rivals Mergen Gala,
00:10:32and spent the night playing her fake fiancee.
00:10:35Tell them I didn't waste my time tonight.
00:10:37Then what did you find?
00:10:39A woman worth taking a chance on.
00:10:48Where are you going?
00:10:49What happened tonight?
00:10:51Why did you both turn Ethan down?
00:10:54And Chloe, why did you call some stranger your fiancee?
00:11:00At least tell me if you're in danger!
00:11:04Mom, give us some time.
00:11:06Once we sort this out, we'll tell you everything.
00:11:22Chloe, you came back too, didn't you?
00:11:24I did.
00:11:26I knew the moment you turned Ethan down, the old you never would have let him go.
00:11:30What happened in your last life?
00:11:32What caused the crash?
00:11:33It wasn't an accident.
00:11:35Ethan cut my brake line.
00:11:37He never loved me.
00:11:40After the wedding, he forced me to sign over my shares.
00:11:43Once I gave in, he sabotaged my car.
00:11:45I was left paralyzed.
00:11:47And he pulled the plug himself.
00:11:52Chloe, we fought over him for two lifetimes.
00:11:54We both thought the other had stolen our chance at happiness.
00:11:57In the end, he killed us both.
00:12:00Now that we're back, we won't let him decide our fate again.
00:12:03I'm so glad you turned him down too.
00:12:05Neither of us have to marry him this time.
00:12:08But are you really going to marry that stranger?
00:12:11The engagement is fake for now, but I don't think Adrian's a bad guy.
00:12:15Everyone says he's just an ordinary man with no connections.
00:12:19So what?
00:12:20I have savings and I know how to run a business.
00:12:23Even if I leave the Bennett group, I can start a small company and build a life with him from
00:12:27nothing.
00:12:29I'd rather lose everything I have than marry Ethan and hand him my shares and my life.
00:12:34This time, we protect each other.
00:12:38We never hurt each other over a man again.
00:12:42This time, we choose each other.
00:12:53After what you've done, you can still sit here and chat?
00:12:59Tonight's fiasco is all over the financial world.
00:13:02Our stock is falling and the banks and board are demanding answers.
00:13:05No matter what happens, neither of us will marry Ethan.
00:13:09One of you must accept his proposal and sign the partnership agreement.
00:13:14I won't sign it.
00:13:15Even if I lose my position and shares, I'll never let Ethan control me again.
00:13:21You think you're the only ones who will pay if you refuse?
00:13:27What do you mean?
00:13:32Ward Capital is second only to Cross Lobel.
00:13:34Ethan made it clear.
00:13:36If a Bennett daughter doesn't marry him within three days,
00:13:39he'll pull his funding and blacklist us across the industry.
00:13:51Make your choice.
00:13:53One of you will accept Ethan's proposal and sign the agreement within three days.
00:14:07Chloe, Sophia, what is going on?
00:14:10You both trusted Ethan.
00:14:12Why did you suddenly turn him down?
00:14:15The wards have the money and connections to make the entire financial world fear them.
00:14:20Ethan offered to work with the group and marry one of you.
00:14:24You both thought that was the best possible outcome.
00:14:28Besides, Ethan knows everything about you.
00:14:31I always thought we could trust him.
00:14:33Mom, it was all fake.
00:14:35Everything he did was to get our shares.
00:14:37He's a murderer!
00:14:40He's already killed us once.
00:14:41We won't let him do it again.
00:14:43What did you say?
00:14:46Mom, Sophia and I remember our last two lives.
00:14:51We both came back on the day of the engagement gala.
00:14:57Mom, please don't force either of us to marry Ethan again.
00:15:04If Ethan loves neither of you, why is he determined to marry one of you?
00:15:09Who does he truly love?
00:15:11That doesn't matter anymore.
00:15:13Before I died, he said I was never the one he loved.
00:15:16I thought he meant Sophia.
00:15:18So in my second life, I stepped aside and let her have him.
00:15:21He never told me either, but we do look alike.
00:15:25Maybe the woman he really loved looked like us, but wasn't either of us.
00:15:35Even if Ethan would hurt you, Chloe, you can't hand your life to a stranger you know nothing about.
00:15:42Mom, I trust him.
00:15:45We've exchanged keepsakes, and I'll wait for him to come for me.
00:15:53If you've made up your mind, I won't pressure you.
00:15:56Sophia, you need to get engaged soon.
00:15:58I'll find you a suitable match right away.
00:16:07Our new CEO skipped his welcome luncheon to sneak into the Bennett Group's merger engagement gala.
00:16:13Until Adrian returns, everything is cancelled!
00:16:20Mother, I'm late, but I brought good news.
00:16:24Adrian Cross, have you forgotten you're the CEO of Cross Global?
00:16:28The board waited two hours for you!
00:16:34Who's that?
00:16:36The future Mrs. Cross.
00:16:38You're going to marry her?
00:16:45Adrian, those sisters look familiar.
00:16:47I swear, I just saw them somewhere.
00:16:56Adrian, do you know her?
00:16:59Why, have you seen her?
00:17:03Chloe Bennett?
00:17:04No.
00:17:06The woman in my photo looked like her.
00:17:10But her name was Sophia Bennett.
00:17:12Sophia is Chloe's younger sister.
00:17:17Why was her photo sent to you?
00:17:22Mr. Cross, the Bennett's invited every wealthy family in the city.
00:17:26They want to find Sophia a new fiancé.
00:17:30Within three days.
00:17:33Every family got one?
00:17:35Yes, but no one has responded.
00:17:40Ethan warned that anyone who takes Sophia's will become an enemy of the Ward family.
00:17:44That's why they sent me Sophia's photo.
00:17:51What about Chloe?
00:17:54Is Laura arranging another engagement for her too?
00:17:59No.
00:18:00I heard Chloe rejected every match.
00:18:03She chose an ordinary man with no connections
00:18:06and said she'd wait for him to ask for her hand no matter who mocked her.
00:18:10She rejected the Ward heir to wait for a man with nothing?
00:18:14That girl has guts.
00:18:16She didn't change her mind after I left.
00:18:18I chose well.
00:18:21Wait.
00:18:22You chose Chloe?
00:18:24And she's waiting for that ordinary man?
00:18:27That's right.
00:18:28I'm the ordinary man.
00:18:35How did this happen?
00:18:39I invited over a dozen families and not one will meet Sophia.
00:18:47Yesterday they were happy to associate with the Bennett's.
00:18:50Today they won't take my calls.
00:18:54Even the families who accepted Sophia's photo returned the invitations.
00:19:01Ethan is behind this.
00:19:05He's scaring everyone away.
00:19:08So I'll come crawling back.
00:19:11If we can't find another fiance within three days, your father will force you to accept Ethan.
00:19:22In my last life, I pushed Sophia toward Ethan and got her killed.
00:19:29This time, I won't let him have her.
00:19:36Chloe, where are you going?
00:19:41Ethan is willing to make an enemy of every family to force one of us to marry him.
00:19:46He wants more than a wife.
00:19:48How will you find out?
00:19:51In my first life, I spent a lot of time at his private residence.
00:19:56There's a hidden room in his study.
00:19:59That even the wards don't know about.
00:20:01I'm coming with you.
00:20:03No!
00:20:04Ethan still thinks you'll give in.
00:20:07Stay here and make him believe you have no other choice.
00:20:27In my first life, I was madly in love with Ethan.
00:20:30I spent more time in his study than anywhere else.
00:20:33He trusts no one.
00:20:35Anything he wants hidden, he keeps here.
00:20:55huh?
00:20:59Huh?
00:21:14Ethan really has loved someone else all along.
00:21:18He only used us to seize our shares.
00:21:25V, is she the woman he truly wants to marry?
00:21:28If I see her face, I'll know who's been helping Ethan destroy Sophia and me.
00:21:45Why is her face hidden in every photo?
00:21:48Who does Ethan really love?
00:21:52That profile looks so familiar.
00:21:55I've seen her before.
00:22:01What are you doing here?
00:22:03I came to see you.
00:22:04The door was unlocked, so I waited in your study.
00:22:07I had no idea this room was back here.
00:22:09Who is the woman in these photos?
00:22:15Every photo is of you.
00:22:17Don't you remember?
00:22:29Who are you taking pictures of now?
00:22:32You, of course.
00:22:35Then why don't any of them show my face?
00:22:37Some only show my back.
00:22:39Because you belong to me.
00:22:42I don't want anyone else to see you the way I do.
00:22:47He told me before that I was the woman in these photos.
00:22:50But every loving word he says could be a lie.
00:22:53The woman in the photo has a mole on the right side of her neck.
00:22:56I don't.
00:22:59That's not me, is it?
00:23:00I don't have a mung there.
00:23:03Tell me the truth, Ethan.
00:23:05Who is the woman on these walls?
00:23:12You chose a penniless stranger over me because you think I love another woman?
00:23:15Let me go.
00:23:17I'm not an idiot.
00:23:19That woman isn't me.
00:23:21Tell me who she is.
00:23:23Just as I thought.
00:23:25Chloe isn't easy to fool.
00:23:29Do you really want to know who she is?
00:23:32Silly girl.
00:23:37She is...
00:23:39It's you.
00:23:44That mole is just a stain on the photo.
00:23:46Is it?
00:23:48We grew up together.
00:23:50We know better than anyone what I've done for you.
00:23:53Ethan used to treat me well.
00:23:55I believed we'd marry like any childhood sweetbards,
00:23:58start a family, and run the Bennett group together.
00:24:00But his tenderness could have been fake.
00:24:02Our deaths were real.
00:24:06If you've always wanted me,
00:24:08why did you give us identical rings?
00:24:10Why did you send us the exact same proposal message?
00:24:14You said you'd choose me in front of everyone.
00:24:17You told Sofia the same thing.
00:24:20Sofia has competed with you since childhood.
00:24:23If she knew I only loved you, she'd ruin our wedding.
00:24:25I only let her on to keep her from hurting you again.
00:24:28But I never thought you'd make some nobody your fake fiancé just to spite me!
00:24:32Is this really about Sofia competing with me?
00:24:35Or do you not care which sister you marry, as long as she's a Bennett?
00:24:40Chloe, you're the one I've always wanted.
00:24:43Stop punishing me like this.
00:24:45We'll marry in three days.
00:24:47Sign over your voting proxy, and I'll make all the Bennett group's problems disappear.
00:24:52You're desperate for my signature.
00:24:54I must be close to the truth.
00:24:56Alright.
00:24:57Pick me up in three days.
00:25:03Chloe, why is everyone saying you'll marry Ethan in three days?
00:25:09Didn't he destroy you badly enough in your last life?
00:25:13Why would you marry him again?
00:25:16Because I know who Ethan really loves.
00:25:22I'm the woman Ethan really loves.
00:25:24He explained everything.
00:25:25Every photo is of me.
00:25:29I know his love is real.
00:25:31So I'm giving him another chance.
00:25:32I'll marry him in three days.
00:25:34Chloe, you've lost your mind.
00:25:36He killed you once, and you still believe him?
00:25:42Ethan, you love watching us fight over you.
00:25:44So I'll give you exactly what you want.
00:25:57Check the public photos of every female executive at Bennett Group.
00:26:00Find the one with this mole on the right side of her neck.
00:26:03Yes, Miss Bennett.
00:26:04No one can know about this.
00:26:06Especially my father or Ethan.
00:26:19I found her.
00:26:21Only one woman in the company matches the photo.
00:26:24Maybe.
00:26:26So that's the truth.
00:26:29You helped him destroy us in two lifetimes.
00:26:32This time, I'll make you both pay.
00:26:38Mr. Cross, Ethan announced that he'll marry Chloe in three days.
00:26:42What?
00:26:43What?
00:26:43The news is all over high society.
00:26:45It's real.
00:26:47I told you.
00:26:49No sensible woman would give up the ward air for a nobody with no connections.
00:26:53Yesterday, you said she was different.
00:26:55It seems she was only trying to get Ethan's attention.
00:26:57I trust Chloe.
00:26:58She has her reasons.
00:27:03I knew she wouldn't let me down.
00:27:09Where are you going?
00:27:11To back up my fiancee.
00:27:18Ms. Bennett, Ethan is here.
00:27:19The guests and press are waiting downstairs.
00:27:26Good.
00:27:27Today, he'll get his real wedding gift.
00:27:44Chloe, don't go.
00:27:46You know he'll kill you.
00:27:48Why would you still marry him?
00:27:53Chloe clearly can't wait to become Mrs. Ward.
00:27:56Mrs. Bennett, respect her decision.
00:28:00Ethan, you forced her into this.
00:28:02This isn't her choice.
00:28:03Laura, that's enough.
00:28:08She's having trouble letting her daughter go.
00:28:10The wedding will proceed as planned.
00:28:14Take her back to the lounge.
00:28:15Don't let her near the press without my permission.
00:28:17Let me go!
00:28:18Chloe, you can't go with him!
00:28:29Chloe, don't go.
00:28:31Have you forgotten what we went through?
00:28:35Sophia, get used to it.
00:28:37Your sister chose me.
00:28:39After today, you'll have no say in her marriage, her shares, or her future.
00:28:45Try to ruin this wedding again and I'll strip you of your position
00:28:48and drive you and Laura out of the Bennett family for good.
00:28:57Chloe, don't marry him!
00:29:06Mom, even if Chloe never comes back, I'll protect you.
00:29:10And I'll make Ethan pay for everything he did in our last two lives.
00:29:30It was short notice. This was the only car I could find.
00:29:33If it takes me away from Ethan, it's the best car I've ever been in.
00:29:37Ethan, put it on for me. Today, I'm your bride.
00:29:47From now on, wherever you go, I go with you.
00:29:57Ethan, you turned Sophia and me against each other twice, then killed us both.
00:30:02This time, I've got a real wedding gift for you.
00:30:05Let's see if you're still smiling when you see your bride.
00:30:16Marrying a Bennett daughter gives me her voting rights and total control of the Bennett group.
00:30:23Once I have everything I want, no one can keep us apart.
00:30:27You'll understand, won't you?
00:30:32After today, Chloe, you'll be mine forever.
00:30:43In the end, I married a woman I don't love.
00:30:47I had no choice. I needed Chloe's shares and an heir.
00:30:54Chloe, everyone may think I love you, but I never will.
00:31:10Chloe, you're nothing but a signature and a vote to me.
00:31:13Once you sign over your voting proxy and give the Wards an heir, you'll be useless to me.
00:31:22Mr. Ward, the marriage papers and voting proxy are ready.
00:31:26Would the bride sign now?
00:31:28Get out.
00:31:30You're not needed here.
00:31:43How could it be you?
00:31:46How could it be you?
00:31:48Ethan, I'm finally sitting before you in a wedding dress.
00:31:53After today, we'll never have to sneak around again.
00:31:57What the hell happened?
00:31:59Chloe was supposed to marry me today.
00:32:02Chloe knows.
00:32:05What does she know?
00:32:06She found the photos you hid and noticed the mole on the right side of my neck.
00:32:11She also knows about Richard and me.
00:32:14She gave me two choices.
00:32:16Take her place at the wedding or let everyone know the Bennett group's executive secretary is secretly involved with both
00:32:22its chairman and the ward heir.
00:32:26How did Chloe find that room?
00:32:28She knows about Vivian and her affair with Richard.
00:32:31How much else does she know?
00:32:35Why aren't you happy?
00:32:36You said I was the only woman you loved.
00:32:38Chloe stepped aside so we can finally be together.
00:32:41I want to be with you.
00:32:42But a woman in your position can't become Mrs. Ward.
00:32:45You're Richard's mistress!
00:32:49We can cancel the wedding.
00:32:51The marriage papers aren't signed.
00:32:54Leave now.
00:32:56And no one will know Chloe wasn't under that veil.
00:32:58I can stay out of the public eye and leave the company for a while.
00:33:02I'll do anything as long as we're together.
00:33:05We finally don't have to hide.
00:33:08From Richard or the Bennett sisters, right?
00:33:13We'll discuss this later.
00:33:15Chloe dared to use Vivian to ruin my wedding.
00:33:18No matter how much she knows, I have to silence her.
00:33:25For two years, we've only met in secret at hotels and the office.
00:33:30You promised me over and over that once you controlled the Bennett group, you'd give me a real home.
00:33:35This is our wedding day. Are you really gonna leave me here alone?
00:33:42I did consider starting a family with you.
00:33:44But you can't enter the Ward family with your current reputation.
00:33:48What exactly do you mean?
00:33:49If I publicly marry my future father-in-law's mistress, the entire financial world will laugh at the wards.
00:33:55The board will also investigate everything we've done.
00:33:59You never planned to marry me.
00:34:00Vivian, know your place.
00:34:03You can never be the woman the Ward family formally welcomes as its daughter-in-law.
00:34:15Ethan, have you always been ashamed of me?
00:34:17If I were ashamed of you, I wouldn't have pursued both Bennett sisters.
00:34:20Believe me, I did all of this for you.
00:34:23I'm standing before you in a wedding dress.
00:34:26Can't you be brave for once and admit that I'm the woman you love?
00:34:30No!
00:34:30The Ward family's reputation and my seat on the board are at stake.
00:34:36Vivian, you're the only woman I love.
00:34:38Neither Chloe nor Sophia can compare to you.
00:34:41You're the only one who truly understands me.
00:34:43If you love me, why did you never make me yours in public?
00:34:47If you never intended to marry me, why did you pursue me?
00:34:50Grow up!
00:34:51I can give you anything except a public marriage.
00:34:54A house, money, shares, even all my time.
00:34:57Ethan, you liar!
00:35:00It's mine!
00:35:03I can't make you Mrs. Ward, but I can give you all my love.
00:35:07Once this scandal dies down, I'll deal with Chloe.
00:35:22Adrian, are we there yet?
00:35:23Not yet.
00:35:25Wait here.
00:35:26I need to take care of something.
00:35:27Okay.
00:35:32Why are you here?
00:35:34Mrs. Cross has the estate and staff ready for you to bring your future wife home.
00:35:41She doesn't know who I really am.
00:35:43Taking her to the Cross estate now would only scare her.
00:35:46Then where will you take her?
00:35:47Find a quiet, ordinary house.
00:35:49Pull all the guards and staff.
00:35:51She can't find out yet.
00:35:54Understood.
00:35:55But how long will you keep this from her?
00:35:58I'll tell her myself once she truly trusts me.
00:36:03Chloe, we're here.
00:36:19You can take off the veil now.
00:36:25Where are we?
00:36:26This is our home for now.
00:36:29It's an old house my father left me, so there's no rent.
00:36:31I may be an ordinary man, but I promise to care for you.
00:36:34I won't leave you without a home.
00:36:37I should be thanking you.
00:36:38You chose me when everyone looked down on me.
00:36:41I won't let you suffer for that choice.
00:36:49The wedding was last night.
00:36:51Why haven't we heard from Chloe?
00:36:53Did she really go back to the ward estate with Ethan?
00:36:55Ethan?
00:36:56Don't worry, Mom.
00:36:59If Ethan really took her to the ward estate, I'll rescue her right now.
00:37:04I'm coming with you.
00:37:10Chloe!
00:37:12Where are you going?
00:37:16Did Ethan hurt you last night?
00:37:18How did you escape?
00:37:19You knew what happened in our past lives.
00:37:22Why did you agree to that wedding?
00:37:24Have the lawyer prepare a divorce immediately.
00:37:26No matter what the wards demand, we can't let you stay with Ethan.
00:37:31Relax.
00:37:32I wasn't the woman who left with Ethan in that wedding dress.
00:37:36It wasn't you?
00:37:37I left through the hotel's side entrance and went to another house with Adrian.
00:37:43Then who was under the veil?
00:37:45Who is the woman Ethan truly loves?
00:37:50Why is Chloe back?
00:37:52Shouldn't she be at the ward estate with Ethan?
00:37:54How dare you question your daughter?
00:37:57Why don't you stay with your mistress?
00:37:58I should be asking you what you did to her.
00:38:01Why has Vivian been missing since yesterday afternoon?
00:38:04She's your secretary and your mistress.
00:38:06She disappears and your first instinct is to blame me?
00:38:10Why would she turn off her phone unless you went after her?
00:38:14I went after her.
00:38:16She vanished without warning.
00:38:18Maybe she took your money and found another man.
00:38:22Vivian isn't like that!
00:38:23She's been with me for years!
00:38:25She would never betray me!
00:38:27She slept with a married man while controlling his company's books
00:38:30and you still expect loyalty from her?
00:38:33You don't know her at all!
00:38:35That's enough, Mom.
00:38:36A man like him isn't worth getting upset over.
00:38:40But, Father, do you really want to know where Vivian went?
00:38:44Do you know where she is?
00:38:46Vivian was the woman who wore my wedding dress
00:38:49and left with Ethan yesterday.
00:39:01Impossible!
00:39:02Vivian said she had company business to handle.
00:39:04Why would she marry Ethan in your wedding dress?
00:39:06Because the business she handled was taking my place in Ethan's wedding car.
00:39:11You forced her!
00:39:13You knew about our relationship and used her to get revenge on me!
00:39:20Where is she now? What did you do to her?
00:39:22Don't touch my daughter!
00:39:24Vivian is an adult.
00:39:25No one forced her into that dress or wedding car and no one forced her into another man's bed!
00:39:31Get out of my way!
00:39:33You humiliated me and neglected our daughters for that woman.
00:39:37Now she's betrayed you and you still blame Chloe?
00:39:41The mistress you trusted most is the one who played you!
00:39:46Go ahead. Touch me or our daughters and I'll show everyone exactly what kind of husband and father you are!
00:40:00Dad, if you want the truth, ask Vivian. Stop bullying mom!
00:40:08Mom, I didn't come back just to tell you about Vivian.
00:40:12Adrienne and I got married at City Hall yesterday afternoon.
00:40:17You really married that young man?
00:40:20Yes. No one forced me and I didn't trade my marriage for anything.
00:40:25This time, I chose my own husband.
00:40:30Chloe, if this is your choice, I support you.
00:40:33A poor kid who can't even afford a decent wedding car?
00:40:36Once you've suffered enough, you'll realize what Ethan could have given you!
00:40:39At least Adrienne has never treated me like a barding chip.
00:40:43Enough. You have no right to judge our daughter's marriage.
00:40:46Get out!
00:41:01Adrienne has no stable family business and you'll need food and housing.
00:41:06These are my private savings. They don't belong to the company or Richard.
00:41:09Take them and help Adrienne start a small business.
00:41:13Mom, I didn't get married to take your retirement savings.
00:41:18This is my first chance to support the man you chose.
00:41:22Take it and put my mind at ease.
00:41:30This is everything I've saved.
00:41:32We fought over the same man in our last two lives.
00:41:35This time, I only want to stand by you.
00:41:54Sir, there's a problem at the estate.
00:41:57Drive to the ward estate.
00:41:58I want to see whose bed Vivian is in with my own eyes!
00:42:13What is all this?
00:42:15Mom and Sophia are worried because you don't have a job.
00:42:19They gave us their savings, so you can open a small shop or start a business you enjoy.
00:42:25You think I can't support you either?
00:42:28I don't need anyone to support me.
00:42:31I just want you to know that you're not alone anymore.
00:42:34We'll face every hardship together.
00:42:38If I refuse, will they think I don't want to be part of this family?
00:42:44Mom will worry.
00:42:45And Sophia may think you're looking down on how little she gave.
00:42:52Then I'll take it.
00:42:55Not because I need the money, but because this is the first time they've treated me like family.
00:43:02When your little business makes money, remember to pay them back double.
00:43:09I'll spend my whole life paying them back.
00:43:27The Bennet family is in chaos, yet they still gave their living expenses to help an ordinary man.
00:43:33At least Chloe didn't look down on you for appearing poor.
00:43:36She had no idea who I was when she chose me.
00:43:40Now I believe she isn't after the cross fortune.
00:43:43Tell her the truth when this is over.
00:43:45A real marriage shouldn't be built on secrets.
00:43:52She doesn't have much herself, but she gave it all to support her sister.
00:43:56Are you starting to care about Sophia?
00:43:59I just think people have always misunderstood her.
00:44:09Take off the dress and leave through the back.
00:44:15Nothing was signed last night.
00:44:17If you stay out of sight, I can say the wedding was cancelled at the last minute.
00:44:21I fooled everyone for you and spent our wedding night with you.
00:44:25Now you want me to sneak away like your dirty secret?
00:44:28You were never supposed to be seen in public.
00:44:33Tell your parents I'm the woman you love.
00:44:36And the true daughter-in-law of the Ward family!
00:44:51Vivian, tell me this isn't real.
00:45:03Did Chloe force you to come here?
00:45:05Say the word and I'll take you away right now!
00:45:07No one forced me.
00:45:09I put on the dress and got into the wedding car myself.
00:45:12I willingly stayed with Ethan last night.
00:45:14Then what am I to you?
00:45:15I gave you a house and jewelry and fought with Laura over you for years!
00:45:19You were simply my way into the Bennett family.
00:45:22I needed money, a respectable position, and access to all your family's secrets.
00:45:26You offered them. Why wouldn't I take them?
00:45:28You said you loved me!
00:45:30Did you really think a woman so much younger would love a man who betrayed his wife and neglected his
00:45:36own daughters?
00:45:38You seduced her! I'll kill you!
00:45:47Throw him out. Never let him near the Ward estate again.
00:45:50Vivian! Vivian! Vivian!
00:45:55Now that he knows, we don't have to hide anymore.
00:45:57None of this would have happened if Chloe hadn't switched brides.
00:45:59She ruined the wedding and gave everyone leverage against us.
00:46:01Then silence her. She must have more photos and recordings.
00:46:05Watch Chloe. The moment she's away from her family, bring her to me.
00:46:13Don't keep the originals at the office.
00:46:15If I don't contact you by tonight, give these to the press and the police.
00:46:19Ethan has lost his mind. You can't do this alone.
00:46:21The more desperate he gets, the more he'll expose himself.
00:46:24Go and make sure no one follows you.
00:46:51You made me marry the wrong bride in front of everyone.
00:46:53Now, you'll set everything right.
00:46:57Kidnapping me is your idea of setting things right?
00:47:03Say you were last night's bride and sign the papers.
00:47:05Otherwise, neither you nor your family will leave this place.
00:47:17Answer me first.
00:47:19How did you know about Vivian?
00:47:21How did you find the hidden room and the mole on her neck?
00:47:23Because you left too many clues.
00:47:25You treated Sophia and me like fools, so you thought we'd never expose you.
00:47:30You used to be madly in love with me.
00:47:33Why did everything change overnight?
00:47:35Because I finally saw the truth.
00:47:37You never loved me or Sophia.
00:47:39Even Vivian is only a tool to satisfy your desires.
00:47:42What you've always wanted is the power my sister and I hold.
00:47:47Love doesn't matter.
00:47:49Become Mrs. Ward and your mother keeps her home while Sophia marries into a good family.
00:47:54Sign and everyone can live comfortably.
00:47:56By comfortably, you mean under your control for the rest of our lives?
00:48:02With one word, I can take Laura's home and destroy Sophia's arranged marriage.
00:48:06Keep refusing, and they'll pay the price for you.
00:48:09Sophia doesn't need a marriage to survive, and Mom doesn't need a home from your charity.
00:48:13Then I'll make them watch you sign.
00:48:28Arguments are normal for newlyweds.
00:48:30Last night's ceremony was rushed.
00:48:32Sign the papers today, and this necklace will officially be yours.
00:48:36Wear it, and the Ward family will recognize you as our daughter-in-law.
00:48:40We'll handle the rumors.
00:48:43Chloe, stop being difficult.
00:48:47You should give that necklace to the woman who actually shared Ethan's bed last night.
00:48:56What do you mean?
00:49:00I didn't marry Ethan or enter the honeymoon suite.
00:49:03He brought another woman back to the estate in that wedding car.
00:49:07She's only upset because I didn't announce our marriage soon enough.
00:49:10It's just a dispute between husband and wife.
00:49:13Don't take it seriously.
00:49:15Husband and wife?
00:49:17Then show us the marriage papers with my signature.
00:49:26Ethan, why weren't the papers signed last night?
00:49:30She wasn't feeling well.
00:49:32I planned to have her signed today.
00:49:33Because when you lifted the veil last night, you realized the woman you brought home wasn't me.
00:49:42Keep talking, and I promise your mother and Sophia will pay.
00:49:48You kidnapped me and are forcing me to claim we're married?
00:49:53It's in front of your parents.
00:49:56Ethan, how many more lies will you tell?
00:49:59Kidnapped?
00:50:00She was hysterical.
00:50:02I only had someone bring her back.
00:50:10Chloe, are you hurt?
00:50:13Are you hurt?
00:50:15Are you hurt?
00:50:16Are you hurt?
00:50:16You have no right to touch my daughter.
00:50:20This is between my wife and me.
00:50:26Chloe married Adrian at City Hall yesterday afternoon.
00:50:30You are not her husband.
00:50:32Chloe was with Adrian after the wedding.
00:50:35She even called us.
00:50:37She couldn't have been the woman who stayed here last night.
00:50:40Your family.
00:50:41Of course you've lied for her.
00:50:43City Hall records don't lie, and neither do the marks on her wrists.
00:50:52You made us celebrate an unidentified woman all night,
00:50:56then kidnap the real Chloe to get her signature?
00:51:00Father, I can explain.
00:51:02Bring out last night's bride!
00:51:03Now!
00:51:04Now!
00:51:05Now!
00:51:13There's no need to look.
00:51:15I married Ethan last night and entered the honeymoon suite with him.
00:51:21Who are you?
00:51:23Why are you wearing Chloe's wedding dress?
00:51:26I'm the woman Ethan truly loves.
00:51:29Her name is Vivian.
00:51:31She's Richard's private secretary and his longtime mistress.
00:51:35A married man's mistress entered the Ward family by posing as the bride.
00:51:42I wasn't posing.
00:51:43Ethan told me himself that I was the woman he had always loved.
00:51:48Shut up!
00:51:52She's telling the truth!
00:51:54Vivian was with me for years!
00:51:56I gave her a house, money, and a job,
00:51:59and access to all our family accounts.
00:52:00But she was seeing Ethan behind my back!
00:52:05So you finally admit she's your mistress?
00:52:08So what?
00:52:09Richard only used money to control me.
00:52:10Ethan is the man I truly want to marry.
00:52:14You stole our family records and gave my money to Ethan?
00:52:17You were only my ticket into this world.
00:52:19How else could I have gotten close to the Ward heir?
00:52:25Ethan, you let the entire city watch the Ward family
00:52:29welcome a married man's mistress!
00:52:33Chloe planned all this!
00:52:35When she discovered Vivian,
00:52:37she forced her into that wedding dress to get revenge on me!
00:52:40I told her to wear the dress,
00:52:42but I didn't make you have a two-year affair with her.
00:52:46And I didn't make you keep her in your room
00:52:48after discovering she wasn't your bride.
00:52:54Tell them you love me!
00:52:57She's lying!
00:52:59Vivian and I have no relationship!
00:53:08Chloe found some random woman to frame me
00:53:10because she wanted out of the wedding.
00:53:13Every word she's saying is meant to destroy the Ward family!
00:53:18You have a hidden room behind the study in your private residence.
00:53:23The walls are covered with photos of the same woman
00:53:25and records of every time you met.
00:53:28How does she know about that room?
00:53:29She's been to my house before!
00:53:31She's the woman in those photos!
00:53:43See?
00:53:44The woman in those paters is Chloe.
00:53:47She used to be obsessed with me,
00:53:49but now she's denying everything for her new husband!
00:53:53Chloe, how do you explain this?
00:53:56Those photos prove nothing.
00:53:58They certainly prove something.
00:53:59Ethan just destroyed every part that showed her face.
00:54:04Miss Bennett asked me to keep copies before she disappeared.
00:54:07I have the complete photos
00:54:08and a recording of Ethan's own words.
00:54:23Turn it off!
00:54:24It's all fake!
00:54:27The original files contain timestamps and locations.
00:54:31The police can verify them.
00:54:32Chloe and Sophia both think I love them.
00:54:35It doesn't matter which one I marry.
00:54:36If either one signs, I can control the Bennett family.
00:54:39What about me?
00:54:40Just be patient.
00:54:41Once they're no longer useful, I'll get rid of them.
00:54:45So no matter which one of us married you,
00:54:47the ending is always the same.
00:54:54You two have played me for a fool all these years!
00:55:00Lock the doors.
00:55:02No one is to breathe a word about what happened tonight.
00:55:12Others have already seen the evidence.
00:55:15Locking us in won't change the truth.
00:55:17If the police and press get in,
00:55:18the Ward family will become the city's laughingstock.
00:55:21Stop the release and tell everyone
00:55:22this was a family misunderstanding.
00:55:24Your son kidnapped my daughter,
00:55:25and now you want his victim to lie for him?
00:55:32Once Chloe signs,
00:55:34we'll sedate her and say the stress caused a breakdown.
00:55:36No one will believe her,
00:55:38and everyone will think she was last night's bride.
00:55:40What if she still refuses?
00:55:42Then we keep her unconscious
00:55:43until we finish all the paperwork for her.
00:55:47I only want this scandal gone.
00:55:50Handle the details yourselves.
00:55:53Let Mom go!
00:55:54Ethan, you can't fool anyone anymore!
00:55:56Once Chloe admits we're married,
00:55:58you and Laura can go home.
00:55:59Adrian knows where I am.
00:56:01He'll come for me.
00:56:03That ordinary man who rents a house
00:56:05and drives an old car?
00:56:06One check will make him leave you.
00:56:08If he refuses,
00:56:10I can make him disappear from the city for good.
00:56:12You don't know him at all.
00:56:16Then I'll show you exactly what his price was.
00:56:27Chloe regrets marrying you.
00:56:29Your marriage was only an act to make me jealous.
00:56:33Take the money and leave her forever.
00:56:36Let Chloe tell me herself.
00:56:38She doesn't want to see you.
00:56:40A man who relies on his mother-in-law
00:56:42and sister-in-law to support his wife
00:56:44has no right to demand anything.
00:56:46How do you know they gave me money?
00:56:49Name your price.
00:56:52Sign the divorce papers
00:56:53and you'll be rich today.
00:56:56I'll ask once,
00:56:57where is Chloe?
00:56:59She's somewhere you'll never get into.
00:57:03Once she's my wife again,
00:57:04you won't even have the right to go near her.
00:57:07You kidnapped her.
00:57:09Watch your words.
00:57:11I only brought back the woman who belongs to me.
00:57:19Take the money and leave
00:57:20or I'll make you disappear from this city.
00:57:23No one will care
00:57:25if an ordinary nobody like you goes missing.
00:57:32Your greatest mistake
00:57:34is believing everyone has a price.
00:57:47Mr. Cross,
00:57:48the police are heading to the ward estate
00:57:51using your wife's location.
00:57:53Every exit is covered.
00:57:55They can't move Chloe.
00:57:57The wards are waiting to hear
00:57:58whether you'll continue
00:58:00doing business with them.
00:58:02Mr. Cross?
00:58:04Who the hell are you?
00:58:06Adrian Cross,
00:58:07the new head of Cross Global
00:58:09and Chloe's legal husband.
00:58:13Impossible.
00:58:14You live in a rental
00:58:15and drive an old car.
00:58:17The car I drive
00:58:19doesn't change the fact
00:58:21that you kidnapped my wife.
00:58:27Now tell me where you're holding Chloe.
00:58:33I didn't kidnap her!
00:58:35Chloe only returned to the ward estate
00:58:37to deal with her marriage.
00:58:40I'm her husband.
00:58:42She would never use her phone
00:58:43to invite me here
00:58:45to take your check.
00:58:47Even if you're the cross, heir,
00:58:49you can't storm into my club!
00:58:53The security footage has been secured.
00:58:55It captures his threats
00:58:56and his order to attack.
00:58:58Call the police.
00:58:59Give them the message
00:59:00sent from Chloe's phone, too.
00:59:04You won't dare make this public!
00:59:06If the wards are humiliated,
00:59:08everyone will gossip about Chloe, too.
00:59:10Her safety matters more
00:59:11than any family's reputation.
00:59:20Sign this.
00:59:21Admit you were unstable last night
00:59:23and deliberately put another woman
00:59:25in your wedding dress.
00:59:26Then tell everyone
00:59:27you're Ethan's wife.
00:59:28You think destroying me
00:59:29will make you Mrs. Ward?
00:59:30That recording proves
00:59:31he plans to discard you, too.
00:59:33At least he loved me once!
00:59:35You and Sophia
00:59:36were only tools he used for profit!
00:59:39A man who hides you
00:59:40and sacrifices you
00:59:41when trouble comes
00:59:42doesn't love you.
00:59:50In my last life,
00:59:51Ethan sabotaged my car
00:59:52and left me bedridden.
00:59:54This time,
00:59:54neither of you
00:59:55will hurt my sister!
01:00:04Hit me if you want.
01:00:05Don't touch my children!
01:00:12By the time you wake up,
01:00:14everyone will believe
01:00:14you've lost your mind.
01:00:19He's here.
01:00:34I'm sorry I'm late.
01:00:36Help Mom and Sophia first.
01:00:40I'm so here.
01:00:47Secure the syringe,
01:00:49ropes,
01:00:49documents,
01:00:50and surveillance footage.
01:00:52No one leaves.
01:00:56Mr. Cross,
01:00:57every exit is secured
01:00:58and the police have Ethan in custody.
01:01:06Mr. Cross,
01:01:07why are they calling you that?
01:01:09Because I'm the new head
01:01:10of Cross Global.
01:01:13So the rental,
01:01:14the old car,
01:01:16and being unemployed
01:01:17were all lies?
01:01:18The house and car are real,
01:01:20but I hid my identity.
01:01:21I went to your engagement gala
01:01:23to learn why the Bennetts
01:01:24were in trouble
01:01:24and decide whether I should help.
01:01:26You had an agenda
01:01:27when you approached me too.
01:01:29Yes,
01:01:30but I didn't marry you
01:01:31or stay by your side
01:01:32for any company.
01:01:34I did it because
01:01:34I fell in love with you.
01:01:37Ethan once said
01:01:37he loved me too.
01:01:39Now I don't know
01:01:39what I can believe.
01:01:42You don't have to
01:01:42forgive me now.
01:01:44I can protect you,
01:01:46but I won't decide
01:01:47whether you stay married to me
01:01:48or what happens
01:01:49to the Bennetts family.
01:01:51What if I choose to leave?
01:01:53I'll respect your choice
01:01:55and accept every consequence
01:01:56of my deception.
01:02:03We'll discuss this later.
01:02:04Right now,
01:02:05Ethan and Vivian
01:02:06need to answer
01:02:07for the kidnapping,
01:02:08drugging,
01:02:09and forged documents.
01:02:12All right.
01:02:13This time,
01:02:14you decide what happens next.
01:02:19No one was seriously hurt.
01:02:21This was only
01:02:22a family misunderstanding.
01:02:23Tying a woman
01:02:24to a chair,
01:02:25forcing her to sign,
01:02:26and preparing
01:02:27to drug her unconscious
01:02:28is not
01:02:29a family misunderstanding.
01:02:45Chloe authorized me
01:02:46to make decisions
01:02:47for her.
01:02:48What happened last night
01:02:51doesn't affect this document.
01:02:52If the signature is valid,
01:02:54the sister's objections
01:02:55are irrelevant.
01:02:59I'll prove the truth myself.
01:03:03I was being held
01:03:04at the Ward Estate
01:03:05when this document
01:03:05was created,
01:03:06and Ethan had my phone.
01:03:08The cameras caught him
01:03:09messaging Adrian with it
01:03:11and trying to force me
01:03:12to sign.
01:03:20The wedding footage
01:03:21never shows Chloe's face,
01:03:23and the marriage papers
01:03:24don't bear her signature.
01:03:25Ethan used a fake wedding
01:03:27to deceive everyone
01:03:28from start to finish.
01:03:33They're sisters!
01:03:34Of course they'll cover
01:03:35for each other!
01:03:36You turned us against each other
01:03:37for two lifetimes.
01:03:39That's exactly why
01:03:40we'll never let you
01:03:41use us again.
01:03:45I vote against
01:03:45handing our mother's hotel
01:03:46to the Ward family.
01:03:48So do I.
01:03:49No marriage agreement
01:03:50or man will ever
01:03:51dictate at my choices again.
01:03:59You finally stopped
01:04:00hurting each other
01:04:00over him.
01:04:09He said he'd protect me!
01:04:11He's linked to the drug
01:04:12purchases and shell
01:04:13purchases and shell accounts
01:04:14to you.
01:04:15Stay silent
01:04:16and you'll take the blame
01:04:17for everything.
01:04:23I'll testify.
01:04:24I have the accounts
01:04:25where he hid the money,
01:04:26secret recordings,
01:04:27and proof that he
01:04:28ordered the drugs.
01:04:33Ethan planned to make Chloe
01:04:34overdose after she signed.
01:04:36Everyone would think
01:04:37the pressure of the marriage
01:04:38drove her to suicide.
01:04:40Take care of Sophia's car, too.
01:04:43Once one sister is gone,
01:04:44the other will be easier
01:04:45to control.
01:04:47This isn't a marital dispute.
01:04:49It's a murder plot.
01:04:50I'll testify against him,
01:04:52but I want to reduce sentence.
01:04:53You also took part
01:04:54in the kidnapping
01:04:55and forgery.
01:04:56The court will decide
01:04:57whether to reduce
01:04:58your sentence.
01:05:09Vivian did everything.
01:05:10She posed as the bride
01:05:11and tried to kill Chloe.
01:05:13You made me buy the drugs
01:05:14and ordered someone
01:05:15to sabotage Sophia's car?
01:05:17You've never loved anyone!
01:05:18None of this would have happened
01:05:19if you weren't so greedy!
01:05:21I never would have committed
01:05:22those crimes
01:05:22if you hadn't lied to me!
01:05:31Richard allowed Vivian
01:05:33to scythe money
01:05:34from the hotel for years
01:05:35and used family assets
01:05:37to secure personal debts
01:05:39without authorization.
01:05:40He is no longer fit
01:05:42to manage Bennett Hotels.
01:05:46I'm the man of this family!
01:05:48Without me,
01:05:49you three women
01:05:49could never hold on
01:05:50to this place!
01:05:56My mother founded this hotel.
01:05:58You hold your position
01:06:00because I once trusted you,
01:06:02not because you're more
01:06:03qualified than we are.
01:06:07I'm filing for divorce.
01:06:09Starting today,
01:06:10you can no longer use
01:06:11your role as husband
01:06:12and father to control us.
01:06:17You've been planning
01:06:19to throw me out all along?
01:06:21I gave you chance
01:06:22after chance to change.
01:06:24You used every ounce
01:06:25of my trust
01:06:26to protect Vivian.
01:06:33Dad,
01:06:34you didn't lose your position
01:06:35because Vivian betrayed you.
01:06:37You lost it
01:06:38because you betrayed
01:06:39this family first.
01:06:41We won't pay
01:06:42for your mistakes anymore.
01:06:52I nominate mom
01:06:53to manage the hotel temporarily.
01:06:57I agree.
01:06:58Once the hotel is stable,
01:07:00we'll divide the work
01:07:00by our strengths
01:07:01instead of fighting
01:07:01over who should be
01:07:02the sole heir.
01:07:07The Cross family
01:07:08will give Bennett Hotels
01:07:10more time
01:07:10to repay its old debt.
01:07:11We won't take
01:07:12the sister's shares
01:07:13or interfere
01:07:13with daily operations.
01:07:15This is help
01:07:16with no strings attached?
01:07:17That's right.
01:07:19This decision won't change
01:07:20even if you ultimately
01:07:21leave me.
01:07:32In our last two lives,
01:07:33we thought
01:07:34whoever wore this ring
01:07:35was the one he loved.
01:07:37But it was never love.
01:07:39It was bait Ethan used
01:07:41to turn us against each other.
01:07:43Starting today,
01:07:44we'll manage the hotel
01:07:45mom inherited together.
01:07:46We'll never fight
01:07:47over who deserves love
01:07:48and we'll never let a man
01:07:50decide our lives again.
01:07:54No engagement,
01:07:55no family conditions
01:07:56and nothing expected
01:07:57in return.
01:07:58Would you have dinner
01:07:59with me?
01:08:00Yes, but it's just dinner.
01:08:02I decide whether
01:08:02there's another one.
01:08:03Of course.
01:08:07I accepted these
01:08:09because they showed
01:08:09you welcomed me
01:08:10into the family.
01:08:11Now I'm returning
01:08:11every dollar
01:08:12because this money
01:08:13is the security
01:08:14you worked hard to save.
01:08:15You didn't look down
01:08:16on the amount
01:08:16or spend it on yourself.
01:08:19Now I believe
01:08:20you value Chloe
01:08:20not what she can give you.
01:08:28I've told you
01:08:29everything about my identity,
01:08:30why I first approached you
01:08:32and every secret I kept.
01:08:33I'm asking you
01:08:34to stay in this marriage
01:08:35but whether you accept
01:08:36and when we hold a wedding
01:08:37are entirely up to you.
01:08:39I'm still angry
01:08:40and I need time
01:08:42to trust you again.
01:08:43I'm willing to wait.
01:08:45but when I was kidnapped
01:08:47you called the police
01:08:48and preserved the evidence.
01:08:49At the meeting
01:08:50you didn't speak for me
01:08:52or use your status
01:08:54to force me
01:08:54to accept your help.
01:08:55So I'm willing
01:08:56to get to know
01:08:57the real you
01:08:57and try to turn this marriage
01:08:59into a partnership
01:08:59of equals.
01:09:01Keep the ring for now.
01:09:03When I'm truly ready
01:09:04I'll take it from you myself.
01:09:06Alright.
01:09:10In our last two lives
01:09:12Sophia and I both believed
01:09:13the same man
01:09:14was the answer
01:09:15to our lives
01:09:16and it cost us everything.
01:09:18It took a third life
01:09:19to understand
01:09:20that true rebirth
01:09:22isn't about winning
01:09:22someone's love.
01:09:24It's about never hurting
01:09:25each other
01:09:25just to be chosen again.
