Transcript
00:05At our wedding, I knelt in front of Camilla and held out the ring.
00:08I had spent hours getting ready, desperate to look my best for the woman I'd loved for seven years.
00:14Her friends burst out laughing.
00:15Oh my god, look at him.
00:18He actually got all dressed up and brought a freaking ring.
00:22Adrian, you really think a fat guy like you deserves Camilla?
00:26Get the fuck out of the way.
00:28This is my wedding now.
00:30I'm pregnant with Luca's child.
00:32He's the father, and I have to take responsibility.
00:35So I'm marrying him instead.
00:36You can still stay by my side as my secret lover.
00:39You want me to be your secret lover?
00:41Adrian, stop acting like you have a choice.
00:43You've been obsessed with Camilla for seven years.
00:46Adrian, look at you.
00:48You're huge.
00:49Camilla's willing to keep you around even after marrying Luca.
00:52You should be on your knees thanking her.
00:54At your size, do you really think that another woman would want you?
00:58They all thought I would stay.
01:00After all, I had loved Camilla for seven years.
01:03But this time, I said nothing.
01:05I took off my wedding ring, dropped it at her feet, and walked away without looking back.
01:10That night, I accepted the marriage my family had arranged for me overseas and disappeared from Camilla's world completely.
01:17Three years later, I returned home nearly a hundred pounds lighter.
01:22I was no longer the overweight man they remembered.
01:25My wife had returned with me, but she had some business to handle at the last minute, so she sent
01:30someone to pick me up.
01:31At the arrivals hall, I spotted someone holding a sign that read,
01:35Mr. Sinclair.
01:36I walked toward it.
01:37Only when I got closer did I realize the person holding the sign was one of Camilla's friends.
01:43Camilla and Luca were standing beside him.
01:45None of them recognized me.
01:47Hey, handsome.
01:48Can I get your number?
01:50Forget her.
01:51Are you single?
01:52Wait, Adrienne?
01:53What?
01:54That's Adrienne?
01:55No way!
01:56Adrienne was like 260 pounds.
01:59Adrienne?
01:59See?
02:00I told you.
02:01He'd come back eventually.
02:03You lost nearly a hundred pounds?
02:05And look at that suit.
02:07Don't tell me you spent three years turning yourself into Camilla's type.
02:11So that's what you've been doing?
02:12All these years?
02:14Losing weight?
02:15Dressing yourself up?
02:17All so you could come back and win me over?
02:19I almost laughed.
02:20I hadn't lost the weight for Camilla.
02:22And I definitely hadn't dressed up for her.
02:25My wife had personally chosen my suit that morning.
02:28She'd even spent ten minutes deciding which tie looked best.
02:32They thought everything I had become was for Camilla.
02:35They had no idea.
02:37And from what they were saying, I finally understood.
03:08They knew they were here to pick up Mr. Sinclair.
03:10You have a nanny at my place.
03:11You can stay there.
03:12Three years later, Camilla was still just as arrogant.
03:15She actually thought I had transformed myself for her.
03:18Adrienne, don't blame Camilla.
03:19She's only trying to help you.
03:21Sure, you lost some weight and bought yourself a nice suit.
03:23But that doesn't mean you've actually made something of yourself.
03:25So just take care of our kid.
03:27At least you'll have a place in Camilla's life again.
03:29Enough, Adrienne.
03:31You came all the way back after three years.
03:33Stop pretending.
03:35You don't want to be around me.
03:37Exactly.
03:38You changed your whole look for Camilla.
03:40Now she's giving you a chance to stay close to her.
03:43You should be thanking her.
03:44Being her nanny is still better than getting dumped again.
03:47Don't worry.
03:48If my kid gives you any trouble, I'll discipline him.
03:50I won't make things too hard for you.
03:51What does he have to complain about?
03:52He disappeared over one little thing three years ago.
03:55Now he's finally come back.
03:57My expression turned cold.
03:59One little thing.
04:00Even now, she still thought abandoning me at our wedding and marrying Luca was just one
04:04little thing.
04:05But it didn't matter anymore.
04:07Three years had passed.
04:08I had a wife, a son, a family of my own.
04:11I had no interest in arguing with them.
04:13Aren't you here to pick me up?
04:14Let's go.
04:17You don't seriously think having the same last name makes you Mr. Sinclair, do you?
04:21Do you even know who that is?
04:23Of course I did.
04:24They were talking about me.
04:25Mr. Sinclair is Donna Moretti's husband.
04:27Donna Moretti is one of the most powerful mafia bosses in the country.
04:31And everyone knows she has one weakness, her husband.
04:35They say she stayed single for years waiting for him.
04:37In our world, getting on Donna Moretti's good side is hard.
04:40But getting on her husband's good side, that's the fastest way to earn her favor.
04:44Hearing them talk about my wife, I couldn't help smiling.
04:47We had been married for three years, and her reputation for spoiling me had only grown.
04:51What are you smiling about?
04:52You know, Donna Moretti once spent $20 million at auction just to buy her husband a watt.
04:58The Eternity.
04:58One of a kind.
04:59Every man in our world would kill to have a wife who treated him like that.
05:03Wait.
05:04That watch.
05:06So that's what this is.
05:08You lost all that weight, bought yourself an expensive suit, and now you're wearing a fake Eternity?
05:13Adrian, how much effort did you put into trying to impress me?
05:16I pulled my wrist free and smiled, running my fingers lightly over the watch.
05:20I'll admit it's a good fake.
05:21Better than the fake I bought before.
05:23But I'd never actually wear mine outside.
05:24I'd be embarrassed if someone recognized it.
05:26Guess overseas counterfeits really are better.
05:28Or what?
05:28Are you going to tell us this is the real Eternity, and that you're actually Mr. Sinclair, Donna Moretti's mysterious
05:33husband everyone keeps talking about?
05:36To them, the idea was ridiculous.
05:39Donna Moretti was one of the most feared mafia bosses in the country.
05:42And three years ago, I was just the fat man Camilla had humiliated at our wedding.
05:47No one could connect that Adrian with Donna Moretti's mysterious husband.
05:52Adrian, why don't you give this to me?
05:53I'll pay you double whatever you paid for the fake.
05:55Give it back.
05:57Valeria gave me that.
05:58Shut up.
05:59Who gave you permission to call?
06:00Donna Moretti by her first name?
06:02You buy a fake watch, dress yourself up, and now you're pretending you know her?
06:05Are you trying to get us killed?
06:06Adrian, do you know how hard Camilla worked to get this chance?
06:10The Russo family depends on Donna Moretti's support.
06:13If we impress her husband today, Camilla could secure her position in the family.
06:16And you're standing here pretending you know Donna Moretti?
06:19Are you trying to ruin everything?
06:20I slowly turned back to Camilla.
06:22The moment our eyes met, her expression stiffened.
06:25For the first time, she looked uneasy.
06:27Luca immediately stepped between us.
06:30Don't look at her like that.
06:31Camilla already offered to let you stay with her.
06:34You're still bitter about three years ago, aren't you?
06:37Still as jealous as ever.
06:38Then she pulled out her checkbook.
06:41Take it.
06:41You obviously spent a lot trying to reinvent yourself.
06:44The weight loss.
06:45The suit.
06:46The fake watch.
06:48If all of this was just to get my attention, you've succeeded.
06:55For old time's sake, I'm not going to hold this against you.
06:58Take the money.
06:59If you really don't want to take care of the kid, I'll find you a respectable job in a few
07:04days.
07:05Don't worry.
07:06Ever since Donna Moretti took over my family, $200,000 is nothing to me anymore.
07:11Camilla's condescending charity act made my stomach turn.
07:15Apparently, she'd been doing pretty well for herself lately.
07:18No thanks, Camilla.
07:19I don't take things from strangers.
07:21Camilla's face darkened instantly.
07:23I ignored her and turned to leave, but I had barely taken a few steps when she grabbed
07:27my arm and pulled me back.
07:29Adrian, I'm offering you $200,000 and you're refusing it?
07:32What the hell is that supposed to mean?
07:33I'm a stranger to you now?
07:35We ended things three years ago.
07:36It's better if we keep our distance.
07:38I wouldn't want anyone getting the wrong idea.
07:40Besides, I had a wife now, and she could get pretty jealous.
07:44Camilla glanced at Luca and seemed to misunderstand my meaning completely.
07:48A knowing look crossed her face.
07:50Three days from now, my family is hosting a banquet for Donna Moretti.
07:55I was going to take you with me and let you see what the real world looks like.
07:59But you'll need to buy something decent to wear.
08:02I don't want you embarrassed me.
08:03No need.
08:04Thanks.
08:05Being rejected again clearly irritated her.
08:07The hand holding the check froze in midair.
08:10Her jaw tightened.
08:11Three years away, and suddenly you've got an attitude?
08:14I guess being broke really does make people bitter.
08:17Fine.
08:17If you don't want to go, forget it.
08:19I'll take Luca.
08:20Camilla, don't worry.
08:21I'll make sure I look my best.
08:23I won't embarrass you in front of Donna Moretti.
08:26I had no interest in wasting another second with them.
08:28I turned and walked away.
08:30Before leaving, I glanced back one last time.
08:33I hope you're still this confident three days from now.
09:05I quickly left the arrivals hall.
09:06You're a baby, but you can still stay by my side as my lover.
09:09Then, she walked into the church with Luca.
09:12That was when I finally gave up on her.
09:15That night, I accepted the marriage my family had arranged overseas.
09:18A month later, I married Valeria Moretti.
09:21A year later, we had our son.
09:24In the three years since, we had built a happy family of our own.
09:27If I hadn't accompanied Valeria back here this time, I probably never would have returned.
09:32And I definitely never expected to see Camilla again.
09:36Three days later, I arrived at the banquet alone.
09:39I wore a simple but well-cut suit and headed inside.
09:43The moment Camilla saw me, her eyes lit up.
09:46You said you weren't coming, but here you are.
09:49You went through all this trouble to dress up for me?
09:51Cute, but I'm not that easy to win back.
09:53I ignored her ridiculous assumption and tried to walk past her toward my seat.
09:58But after only two steps, Camilla grabbed my arm.
10:02Adrian, I'm talking to you.
10:04Did you hear me?
10:05Our seats are over there.
10:06Where do you think you're going?
10:07That's your seat.
10:08Mine is over there.
10:09Camilla followed my gaze toward the main table.
10:11Her expression immediately darkened.
10:14Luca shot me a vicious look.
10:16Then, his eyes landed on the watch on my wrist.
10:18Adrian, how did you even get in here?
10:20You snuck in, didn't you?
10:21You're here to cause trouble, and you actually dared to wear that fake watch here?
10:28Wait, isn't that the Eternity watch Donna Moretti bought for her husband?
10:31Donna Moretti is bringing her husband here tonight for the first time,
10:35and this guy shows up wearing a fake?
10:37He snuck in too?
10:37Is he trying to humiliate us in front of Donna Moretti?
10:40Camilla, is he with you?
10:42No.
10:43The moment she said that, Luca immediately became smug again.
10:46Take off that watch and get out.
10:48You sure you want me to leave?
10:49Stop pretending you're someone important.
10:51Take it off and get out.
10:53Luca reached for my watch.
10:54I slapped his hand away and stepped back.
10:56But before I could steady myself, someone stuck out a foot behind me.
11:00I stumbled and hit the floor hard.
11:02For a second, I was completely stunned.
11:04Before I could get up, Luca stepped on my hand.
11:07Pain shot through my fingers.
11:10Look at you.
11:12Protecting this piece of trash like it's some priceless treasure.
11:15Before I could stop him, he threw it onto the floor.
11:18I barely noticed the pain in my hand.
11:20I just stared at the broken watch on the floor.
11:23Valeria had given it to me on our first anniversary, and now it was destroyed.
11:27Get him up.
11:28Throw him out.
11:29Don't touch me.
11:30I'm Valeria Moretti's...
11:32You're still lying?
11:33You were about to say you're Donna Moretti's lover again, weren't you?
11:37Do you really think you're worthy of her?
11:38I hadn't planned to settle old scores when I came back.
11:41There had been no point.
11:42But now, Luca was going to pay for this.
11:47Camilla crouched in front of me and reached for my injured hand.
11:50I immediately pulled away.
11:52Her face darkened.
11:53Adrian, haven't you caused enough trouble?
11:55You showed up wearing that watch and followed me here dressed like this.
12:00Isn't this all because you found out I'm successful now and wanted to make me jealous?
12:04Just admit you still want me.
12:06Beg me.
12:07And maybe I'll give you another chance.
12:09Camilla, you're finished.
12:10She frowned and opened her mouth to respond.
12:12But suddenly, the entire ballroom went quiet.
12:15Donna Moretti is here.
12:16Behave yourself.
12:18And don't worry.
12:19Luca and I are already divorced.
12:21I stared at her.
12:21What the hell did that have to do with me?
12:23My hand was throbbing with pain.
12:25And looking at Camilla only made me feel sick.
12:28Then the doors opened.
12:29Valeria Moretti walked into the ballroom.
12:31In her arms was our son.
12:32The entire room seemed to hold its breath.
12:35Men who had been laughing only moments ago immediately stepped aside.
12:38My son, however, started squirming the moment they entered the ballroom.
12:42Valeria lowered him to the floor.
12:43The little boy immediately began walking through the crowd, with his nanny following closely behind.
12:49Adrian, if you stop being jealous of Luca,
12:51and causing trouble, I can forgive you for disappearing three years ago.
12:55I'll even give you another chance.
12:56And hey, even I can give you another baby.
12:59One that belongs to us.
13:01I almost laughed.
13:02I didn't answer her.
13:03My eyes were already fixed on the little boy making his way through the crowd.
13:07Finally, he saw me.
13:08Daddy!
13:11The moment our son saw me, his usually calm face filled with panic, he ran straight into
13:16my arms.
13:17Daddy, what happened to you?
13:20Who hurt you?
13:21Why is there so much blood on your hand?
13:23The single word, Daddy, made everyone in the room turn their attention from my son to me.
13:28The guests who had coldly watched me being humiliated moments ago stared at me in disbelief.
13:33My son's hug was as warm as ever.
13:36All the anger I had felt moments ago seemed to fade.
13:39I crouched down so we were eye to eye and gently pinched his chubby cheek.
13:43Daddy's fine.
13:44My son carefully took my injured hand and softly blew on the wound.
13:48His eyes immediately filled with tears.
13:51Daddy, tell me.
13:53Who did this to you?
13:54He was still just a child.
13:56Seeing me hurt was enough to bring tears to his eyes.
13:59My heart ached at the sight.
14:00Valeria was furious.
14:02Ever since our son was born, she had become ridiculously protective of me.
14:06If she could, she would keep me by her side 24 hours a day.
14:10If she hadn't had something urgent to deal with this time, she never would have sent someone else to pick
14:14me up.
14:15If I'd known I would run into Camilla, I would have waited for her.
14:18Feeling Valeria's gaze behind me, I picked up our son and turned around.
14:22Against his white t-shirt, the blood on my injured hand looked even more obvious.
14:27Valeria's eyes immediately turned cold.
14:30She didn't even have to say anything.
14:32Our son started squirming in my arms.
14:34Daddy, put me down.
14:36I set him on the floor.
14:37He immediately ran to Valeria and pointed back at me.
14:40Mommy, someone bullied Daddy.
14:43Let's get revenge for Daddy.
14:47Valeria stepped forward and gently took my injured hand.
14:50The moment she saw the wound clearly, her expression darkened.
14:54Adrian, what happened?
14:55Every time I leave you alone, you somehow end up getting hurt.
14:59Who did this to you?
15:01Seeing how worried she looked, I couldn't help feeling warm inside.
15:04Though, honestly, I didn't get hurt nearly as often as she made it sound.
15:09Valeria was simply far too protective of me.
15:12A mosquito bite.
15:13A red mark on my arm after sleeping.
15:15Even leaving half my dinner untouched was enough to make her worry.
15:19But I loved that about her.
15:21I loved how much she cared.
15:23The ballroom was dimly lit.
15:25But something on the floor caught our son's attention.
15:27He crouched down and picked it up.
15:29It was a broken piece from my watch.
15:32He held it up.
15:33Mommy, isn't this the watch you gave Daddy?
15:35Valeria took it from me.
15:37The moment she saw the Moretti crest engraved on the back, her eyes turned terrifyingly cold.
15:43Then she looked down.
15:44The shattered pieces of the watch were scattered across the floor.
15:47Then, at my injured hand, her jaw tightened.
15:51The lighting around us was too dim for her to see the wound clearly.
15:55That only seemed to make her angry.
15:57Valeria immediately pulled the chair over and firmly made me sit down.
16:02Turn on every damn light in this room.
16:04The moment our eyes met, Valeria's pupils tightened.
16:08She immediately cupped my face in both hands.
16:11What happened to your face?
16:13They actually dared to do this to you?
16:16I'm fine, Valeria.
16:19Adrian, I'm your wife.
16:22I'm not going to let anyone hurt you and get away with you.
16:27That's right!
16:28No one gets to bully Daddy!
16:33It really wasn't a big deal.
16:35I could have handled it myself.
16:36But the moment I saw Valeria and our son,
16:38I suddenly didn't feel like pretending none of it bothered me anymore.
16:42You two weren't here.
16:43And they all bullied me.
16:45The men who had gone to the airport to pick me up immediately went pale.
16:48A few of them had to grip the table just to steady themselves.
16:51The pathetic lapdog they had mocked three days ago was actually Mr. Sinclair,
16:56Donna Moretti's mysterious husband.
16:58The man they had been desperately trying to impress.
17:01Regret hit them all at once.
17:02The watch had been right there on my wrist.
17:04I had told them more than once that Valeria had given it to me,
17:07but they had laughed in my face.
17:09Now, realizing exactly who they had offended,
17:12they looked like they wanted to disappear.
17:14Suddenly, one of Luca's friends stepped forward.
17:16He had arrived late and hadn't seen what happened earlier.
17:19Adrian,
17:20where did you find these two actors?
17:21He looked Valeria and my son up and down.
17:24They're pretty convincing.
17:26Maybe Luca can help them find an agent.
17:29Though I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
17:30You're so broke, you can't even afford decent clothes.
17:34I've got a few suits I don't wear anymore.
17:36If you don't mind wearing my old stuff,
17:38I can give them to you.
17:40He called himself Luca's friend,
17:42but in reality, he was little more than Luca's follower.
17:44He had never met Valeria.
17:46He didn't even know what Donna Moretti or her son looked like.
17:49He had dressed himself up tonight for one reason,
17:51to make connections with the powerful people at the banquet.
17:54And in his mind, the easiest way to please Luca was to humiliate me.
17:58Apparently pleased with himself, he burst out laughing.
18:01Usually, several people would have laughed along with him,
18:03but this time, no one did.
18:05Everyone around him just stared at him like he was an idiot.
18:10The silence around him finally made him uneasy,
18:13but instead of backing down, his eyes landed on Valeria.
18:16Hey, beautiful.
18:18You're way too good looking to be hanging around a loser like Adrian.
18:22Leave him.
18:22If you're interested, I wouldn't mind keeping you.
18:26My mouth twitched.
18:27He was trying to steal my wife.
18:29Right in front of me?
18:30And he wanted to keep Valeria Moretti?
18:32I honestly couldn't decide whether he was incredibly brave or unbelievably stupid.
18:36Anyone with eyes could tell Valeria wasn't an ordinary woman.
18:39Everything about her screamed power.
18:41Valeria actually laughed.
18:42Not because she found him funny.
18:43She was furious.
18:44If those words had come from me,
18:46she probably would have smiled and played along.
18:48But from another man, he had clearly picked the wrong woman.
18:51Over the years, Valeria had gone out of her way to make me feel secure in our marriage.
18:55Any man who flirted with her or tried to get too close was shut down immediately.
18:58She had never given anyone the slightest reason to misunderstand their place.
19:02The man finally realized something was wrong.
19:04He quickly moved toward Luca, hoping for support.
19:06But Luca wanted nothing to do with him now.
19:08The moment he came closer, Luca slapped him across the face.
19:11The man stumbled and nearly fell.
19:12Are you out of your damn mind?
19:16You just insulted Donna Moretti.
19:20The man froze.
19:21His hand slowly rose to his cheek.
19:24His face went completely pale.
19:26Donna Moretti?
19:27His eyes moved from Valeria to me, then back again.
19:30Adrian is Mr. Sinclair?
19:32Everyone knew how fiercely Donna Moretti protected her husband.
19:35And he had just mocked me.
19:37Then tried to hit on my wife right in front of me.
19:39The realization hit him all at once.
19:41His legs began to shake.
19:43He looked like he might collapse on the spot.
19:45Valeria frowned slightly.
19:46One of her bodyguards immediately understood and dragged the man away.
19:49Luca and Camilla both flushed with embarrassment.
19:52Although it was Luca's friend who had been dragged out,
19:54everyone in their circle knew he had only been saying what the two of them had been thinking.
19:58The guests now looked at Luca and Camilla like they were a pair of clowns.
20:01Their eyes filled with contempt.
20:03Beside me, the doctor Valeria had called over was treating the wound on my hand.
20:07The moment I made a sound, Valeria and our son both shot the doctor murderous looks.
20:12Valeria frowned.
20:13You don't know how to treat a wound?
20:15The doctor's hands immediately began to shake.
20:17I pretended to glare at Valeria and our son.
20:19Valeria, buddy.
20:20The two of them immediately looked at me innocently.
20:23I sighed helplessly.
20:24Enough.
20:25The doctor is helping me.
20:27Stop scaring him.
20:28With my intervention, the doctor visibly relaxed.
20:31After finishing the examination, he turned to Valeria.
20:34Donna Moretti, Mr. Sinclair is fine.
20:37His hand is injured, but there's nothing else to worry about.
20:40The wound is fairly serious.
20:42I'll use the best treatment available and do everything I can to make sure it doesn't leave a scar.
20:50Valeria said nothing, but I knew her too well.
20:52Her silence meant she was furious.
20:55As the person responsible for all of this, Camilla was clearly getting nervous.
20:58After all, who could have imagined that the man she once treated like a pathetic lapdog had become her boss's
21:05husband?
21:05But as she watched Valeria fuss over me, something else flickered in Camilla's eyes.
21:10Jealousy.
21:10And the possessiveness she had been trying to ignore suddenly surged to the surface.
21:15But for the sake of her family, Camilla couldn't afford to lose her temper.
21:19Valeria stood beside me, looking over everyone in the room with the authority of someone used to being obeyed.
21:24She looked so serious that somehow I found it adorable.
21:28And our son, standing beside her, looked almost exactly like her.
21:31The more I looked at them, the more amused I became.
21:34I want to know exactly what happened these past few days.
21:38I suggest you tell me yourselves.
21:40Because if I have to investigate it myself, none of you are going to like what happens next.
21:45It was a blatant threat.
21:46Everyone here had fought for the chance to attend this banquet and earn Valeria's favor.
21:50Offending Donna Moretti just to protect Camilla was hardly a smart choice.
21:54Camilla immediately panicked and spoke first.
21:57Donna Moretti, this is all a misunderstanding.
22:00As Adrian's former fiancé, I was only catching up with him.
22:04I never expected things to get out of hand.
22:09There was a trace of jealousy in her voice that even she didn't seem to notice.
22:14Calling herself my former fiancé in front of my wife was practically asking for trouble.
22:18But Camilla had always been strangely possessive when it came to me.
22:22Even though she was the one who abandoned me three years ago,
22:25she still believed that if she ever wanted me back, I should return to her without hesitation.
22:30As far as she was concerned, I should have spent those three years waiting for her.
22:34She had always assumed I would keep loving her just as I had before.
22:37Camilla didn't notice Valeria's expression growing colder,
22:40but I clearly heard the glass in Valeria's hand crack.
22:43Camilla continued.
22:45Donna Moretti, I'm sure you know how much Adrian used to love me.
22:49So what's wrong with two old lovers catching up?
22:52The glass in Valeria's hand shattered.
22:53Seeing the blood on the palm, I immediately regretted letting Camilla get under her skin.
22:57Camilla, stop flattering yourself.
22:59I grabbed Valeria's hand and started tending to the cuts.
23:02If you keep trying to come between me and my wife, I won't be so nice anymore.
23:05I've already given you more patience than you deserve.
23:08I looked Camilla straight in the eyes.
23:10Valeria is the only woman I love.
23:11As I tended to Valeria's hand, I continued glaring at Camilla.
23:15Adrian, I know you're still angry with me.
23:18But Luca and I are already divorced.
23:20My child can call you daddy from now on.
23:22You only married her to get back at me, didn't you?
23:25I don't care.
23:27Divorce her and marry me.
23:28Whatever Valeria can give you, I can give you too if I work hard enough.
23:34She stepped closer.
23:35Come back to me.
23:36Help me raise my child.
23:38If you treat him well, he'll accept you as his father eventually.
23:41And if you don't like Luca, I'll make sure he stays out of our lives.
23:44Camilla's shamelessness left me speechless.
23:47Valeria's blood had stained my hands.
23:50But when she saw how worried I was about her...
23:53What are you laughing at?
23:54Adrian, you just said I'm the only woman you love.
23:57Our son's mouth twitched.
23:59The woman who could make entire mafia families nervous was now smiling like she'd just heard the sweetest thing in
24:05the world he could barely watch.
24:07The guests around us were stunned and more than a little envious.
24:11So the rumors about Donna Moretto spoiling her husband are actually true?
24:16Adrian really has Donna Moretto wrapped around his finger.
24:19Camilla's face darkened when I continued ignoring her.
24:22Our son, however, had heard enough.
24:24Nanny?
24:25My daddy is treated like a prince at home.
24:28And you want him to be your nanny?
24:30Who do you think you are?
24:33Daddy already has me.
24:35He doesn't need your kid.
24:37I heard what you did to daddy.
24:39You broke his heart, abandoned him, and now you think you can ask him to leave mommy for you?
24:46He looked Camilla up and down again.
24:49You're not as pretty as mommy, and you definitely don't have as much money as mommy.
24:54A few people in the room burst out laughing.
24:56Our son wrinkled his nose.
24:58And you only got this far because of Luca's family.
25:01So what exactly do you have that makes you think daddy would choose you?
25:05Camilla's face turned bright red.
25:06She bit her lip hard, her chest rising and falling with humiliation.
25:11Luca, meanwhile, had completely lost control.
25:14He had thought Camilla would bring Adrian back only to make him take care of their child.
25:17But now Camilla was actually asking Adrian to replace him, to become the child's father.
25:23Jealousy overwhelmed him.
25:25I'll kill you!
25:25A sharp pain tore through my back, and my face went pale.
25:29Buddy, are you...
25:30I didn't even manage to finish asking if he was okay before everything went black.
25:34The moment Luca rushed at our son, I had let go of Valeria's hand and thrown myself over him, shielding
25:41him with my body.
25:41As I collapsed, the last thing I saw was the panic on my son's face.
25:46I wanted to tell him not to cry.
25:47But before I could get the words out, I lost consciousness.
25:53The sharp smell of disinfectant hit me as I opened my eyes.
25:56I stared at the hospital gown on my body, still a little dazed.
26:00My best friend, Damon, immediately walked over when he saw me awake.
26:04Adrian, you're finally awake.
26:06If you stayed unconscious any longer, your wife and son were going to tear this whole city apart.
26:11I thought he was exaggerating.
26:13Then I remembered what had happened.
26:15Damon seemed to know exactly what I was thinking.
26:18Relax.
26:19You're fine.
26:20The doctor said you passed out from the pain and shock.
26:23Nothing serious.
26:24That Luca is insane.
26:26Who the hell goes after a kid?
26:28At the mention of my son, I immediately tensed.
26:32What about my son and Valeria?
26:34My voice came out hoarse and I started coughing.
26:37Damon quickly handed me a glass of water and patted my back.
26:41They're fine.
26:42Both of them.
26:44Slow down.
26:45No one's stealing your water.
26:47You were way too reckless.
26:48There were bodyguards everywhere.
26:50You really think they would have let anything happen to your son?
26:53I finally caught my breath.
26:55That's my son.
26:56I know, I know.
26:57Your precious boy.
26:58Damon rolled his eyes.
27:00That kid has a sharper tongue than most grown men I know.
27:03He doesn't need you protecting him.
27:06Then where are Valeria and my son?
27:11Getting revenge for you, obviously.
27:13I wanted to go with them.
27:15But your wife and kid looked like they were about to start a war.
27:19So I figured I'd stay here with you.
27:21I raised an eyebrow.
27:22What?
27:24Disappointed you got stuck with me?
27:25Damon stared at me speechlessly.
27:27Adrian, I don't even know what to say to you.
27:30By the time I got there, you were already unconscious.
27:33But I heard enough from the people around you to know what happened.
27:37He shook his head.
27:38You should have seen your precious little boy when you collapsed.
27:42His face went completely white.
27:46And Valeria?
27:47Valeria, she looked like she wanted to destroy everyone in that room.
27:50If that kid wasn't her own son, I swear she might have blamed him too, just for making you jump
27:54in front of him.
27:56After they took you to the hospital, your son completely lost it.
27:59He pointed straight at Luca and told Valeria he wanted everyone who hurt his daddy punished.
28:04Then Valeria found out everything.
28:07She found out Camilla slapped you at the airport.
28:11She found out Luca and the others humiliated you.
28:15She found out they destroyed the watch she gave you.
28:18And she found out everyone at that banquet just stood there and watched them hurt you.
28:23Adrian, I have never seen Donna Moreno that angry.
28:26She had Camilla and Luca dragged in front of her.
28:29And remember how Luca wanted your watch?
28:34Valeria had an entire case of watches and jewelry brought in and dumped right in front of him.
28:40You like taking things?
28:42Husband that belonged to my husband?
28:44Then take a good look.
28:46Because from this moment on, you'll never touch anything that belongs to the Moretti family again.
28:52Your wife is terrifying.
28:53She stripped Luca's family of every deal they had with the Morettis.
28:56Camilla's family was taken from her too.
28:58Everything she was bragging about three days ago, gone.
29:02And Valeria made sure everyone in their circle knew exactly why.
29:05He wasn't finished.
29:06And the people who stood around, watching you get humiliated, none of them got away clean either.
29:12Every partnership was cancelled.
29:14Every favor was withdrawn.
29:16Half of them were practically begging Valeria by the end of the night.
29:20Good thing I'm your best friend.
29:22Otherwise, with that wife of yours, I might have been finished too.
29:26Keep talking and I'll tell Valeria.
29:28You said she was terrifying.
29:30Damon immediately stopped smiling.
29:32Adrian, we've been friends for years.
29:35Some things don't need to leave this hospital room.
29:41There were plenty of reporters at the banquet that night.
29:44But the only story that made it out was that Camilla's family had collapsed.
29:48Every family that stood by and watched you get humiliated paid for it too.
29:53Valeria controls most of their overseas connections.
29:56Some went bankrupt.
29:57The rest took a serious hit.
29:59Right now, Valeria and your little monster are busy hunting down Camilla.
30:02Camilla escaped?
30:04Hmm.
30:04She was supposed to be dealt with too.
30:06But apparently she made some kind of deal with Luca.
30:09Luca went crazy trying to hold Valeria's men back and bought Camilla enough time to escape.
30:14I could already guess what the deal had been about.
30:17Their child.
30:18Whatever else Luca was, that child was still the one thing he cared about most.
30:22He knew there was no saving himself anymore.
30:25So Camilla must have promised to protect their child.
30:28Valeria always seemed cold to everyone else.
30:31But if our son or I got so much as a scratch, she blamed herself for it.
30:36Her methods could be ruthless, but I had never been afraid of her.
30:40My only complaint was that our perfectly sweet little boy was becoming more and more like his mother.
30:45I was about to ask Damon something else when the hospital room door suddenly flew open.
30:50Two figures, one tall, one small, rushed inside.
30:54The second our son saw that I was awake, he sprinted toward me and practically shoved Damon out of the
30:59way.
30:59Daddy! You're finally awake!
31:05Valeria reached me a second later.
31:07The cold, terrifying Donna Moretti everyone feared was nowhere to be seen.
31:12Adrian, how do you feel? Does anything hurt?
31:16Then her expression hardened slightly.
31:18Don't worry. I already took care of everyone who hurt you.
31:22Valeria's eyes were red.
31:23I had only been unconscious for one night.
31:25Why did these two look like they hadn't seen me in years?
31:29I'm fine, Valeria. Stop worrying.
31:33Buddy? Did Mommy yell at you?
31:35His little mouth immediately turned down and tears began rolling down his cheeks.
31:40No! Mommy didn't yell at me!
31:42You're lying.
31:44I hated it when he lied to me.
31:45But the little guy stubbornly insisted that Valeria hadn't said anything to him.
31:50I knew my wife too well.
31:51She must have blamed him after I got hurt protecting him.
31:54I gently pulled our son into my arms and glared at Valeria.
31:59Looking unusually guilty.
32:01Daddy!
32:02Our son wrapped his arms around me.
32:05I'll never let you get hurt again.
32:07This happened because of me.
32:09I'm sorry, Daddy.
32:11My heart melted.
32:12I gently wiped away his tears.
32:14Protecting you is what Daddy's supposed to do.
32:17I don't blame you.
32:20Damon eventually took our son outside, leaving Valeria and me alone in the hospital room.
32:25Valeria stubbornly insisted on pulling up my hospital gown to check the wound herself.
32:30The doctor already covered it with gauze.
32:32What are you expecting to see?
32:33She ignored me and kept insisting.
32:36Then, just like our son, she actually started pouting.
32:39Fine, look.
32:40Valeria carefully checked the bandage, then leaned closer and gently blew on it.
32:45It tickled.
32:46Adrian, I promise this will never happen again.
32:50I smiled helplessly.
32:52Okay.
32:53I believe you.
32:54I reached out and touched her face.
32:56You know you're the woman I love most.
33:00So, of course, I'm going to take care of myself.
33:03After all, I still have to spend the rest of my life with you.
33:07A smile immediately appeared in Valeria's eyes.
33:11Sometimes she was just as easy to comfort as our son.
33:14I could have recovered at home, but Valeria and our son refused to let me leave the hospital.
33:19They brought in doctor after doctor, making them check me over and over again.
33:24Only after everyone confirmed that I was perfectly fine did they finally agree to let me go home.
33:30I was packing my things when the hospital room door suddenly opened.
33:34My back was to the door, so I assumed it was my son.
33:37Buddy, grab daddy's comb for me.
33:39Adrian?
33:40It's me.
33:41I turned around. Camilla stood in the doorway.
33:47What do you want?
33:48If Camilla had managed to get past Valeria's men and sneak into my hospital room, she must have had a
33:52plan.
33:53After what Luca had done at the banquet, I wasn't about to let my guard down.
33:57Camilla seemed to notice my caution.
33:58Adrian, don't be afraid. I'm not going to hurt you.
34:02I just...
34:03Just what?
34:04I cut her off impatiently.
34:05I still love you, Adrian.
34:08Every time I think about you marrying another woman and having a child with her, I can't stand it.
34:12You still have feelings for me too, don't you?
34:15We can start over.
34:17Camilla was covered in injuries, but it was obvious she had made an effort to clean herself up.
34:21She was even wearing the dress I had bought for her years ago.
34:24I still remembered what she had said back then.
34:25That it was ugly, cheap, not worthy of her.
34:28When I didn't respond, Camilla stepped closer and reached for my hand.
34:33Start over?
34:34Camilla, when you abandoned me on our wedding day and made me a joke in front of everyone, did you
34:38ever think this day would come?
34:40And now you're standing here telling me you love me?
34:43Don't you find that disgusting?
34:44I was pregnant with Luca's child.
34:46I couldn't just abandon him.
34:47I couldn't let my child grow up without a father, could I?
34:50You really are shameless.
34:51Did that child just magically appear?
34:56If you hadn't slept with Luca, behind my back, there wouldn't have been a child in the first place.
35:02And even now, you're still making excuses for your own betrayal.
35:06You're rotten to the core.
35:08What makes you think I'd ever want you back?
35:11Before Camilla could answer, several Moretti guards stormed into the room and forced her down.
35:16Valeria appeared behind them.
35:18Camilla, you really are in a hurry to die.
35:21Her eyes immediately moved to me.
35:24Only after making sure I was unharmed did she turn back to the guards.
35:28Take her away.
35:28The guards dragged Camilla toward the door.
35:30She suddenly struggled and shouted,
35:32Valeria, you really think he loves you?
35:35You're nothing but my replacement!
35:37Before Camilla could say another word, one of the guards silenced her and dragged her away.
35:41I watched Valeria turn and leave without looking at me.
35:45It wasn't as though she didn't know about my past with Camilla.
35:48But even after years of marriage, Valeria had never completely believed that I could love her as much as she
35:53loved me.
35:54Sometimes I wondered if part of her still believed Camilla had a place in my heart.
35:58Looking at her retreating figure, all I felt was heartache.
36:01As for Camilla, after everything she had done, she was still trying to come between me and my wife.
36:06I was completely done with her.
36:10That night I found myself staring at our wedding photo.
36:14Valeria looked at me with so much love, but I barely smiled.
36:17Our marriage had started as an arrangement.
36:19Back then, part of me had married her because of Camilla.
36:22But somewhere along the way, I had fallen completely in love with my wife.
36:25I took the frame off the wall.
36:27That was when I discovered the photos hidden behind it.
36:29Photos of me.
36:30Dozens of them.
36:31Some were from college.
36:33Some were even from high school.
36:34Back when I was still the overweight guy everyone made fun of.
36:37Had Valeria loved me even then?
36:39When she came home and saw the photos spread across the table, she froze.
36:42Adrian.
36:43She looked almost guilty.
36:44If you liked me this much, why didn't you ask me out sooner?
36:47You could have saved me years with Camilla.
36:49You're not angry?
36:50Why would I be?
36:51I watched you for years.
36:53That sounds insane.
36:54You weren't insane.
36:55I touched her face.
36:56All I see is how much you love me.
36:59Later, I finally learned why Valeria had always been so afraid of losing me.
37:03She had been abandoned by her biological parents and raised by a distant adoptive father.
37:08She grew up believing no one would ever truly choose her.
37:11Then I remembered something.
37:12Back in high school, there had been a quiet girl who always ate alone.
37:15Thinking her family was poor, I once secretly stuffed money into her backpack with a note.
37:20From now on, you're under my protection.
37:21That girl had been Valeria.
37:23I pulled my wife into my arms.
37:25Maybe she had loved me first, but I had the rest of my life to prove that I loved her
37:29just as much.
