00:00Babe, you asleep?
00:02Don't ignore me.
00:04You're mine, remember that?
00:07You're mine, remember that.
00:09Six months ago, I met a guy online.
00:10I lied to him about a lot of things.
00:12My name, my age, even what I looked like.
00:14Worst of all, he thought the girl in those pictures was me.
00:17I never had the guts to tell him what I really looked like.
00:19I kept thinking that the second he saw the real me,
00:21all those babes and I miss yous would disappear.
00:27Leela, I want to see you this weekend.
00:28See me?
00:29Yeah.
00:30It's been six months, I want to see you.
00:32Why'd you go quiet?
00:33I've just been really busy lately.
00:35Then I'll come see you.
00:41Don't come.
00:42There's no reason for us to meet.
00:44I don't feel the same about you anymore.
00:47Let's just end it here.
00:53And then I ran.
00:57You're staying with me while you're here.
00:58Make yourself at home.
01:00You've already done so much for me.
01:02Oh, please.
01:02That's what friends are for.
01:12Hey, this is Lena, my best friend from college.
01:15Hey.
01:16Hi.
01:22Girl, put your eyes back in your head.
01:24Just so you know, my brother can't stand girls who throw themselves at him.
01:28Your brother?
01:29Yeah.
01:30And lately, he's been cranky as hell.
01:32Some girl he met online dumped him out of nowhere a while back.
01:35She just vanished on him.
01:37Blocked him on everything.
01:39My brother almost lost his mind.
01:43Maren.
01:44Hm?
01:44Your brother?
01:47His name isn't Callum Montest, is it?
01:56Wait, how'd you know?
01:59No way.
02:00The guy I dumped with one text and blocked on everything lives here?
02:05Lena?
02:07You just went pale.
02:09You okay?
02:09I'm fine.
02:12I feel like you've mentioned his name before.
02:16Oh, yeah.
02:17We hung out all the time.
02:19I must have mentioned him before.
02:22Oh, she had.
02:24But it never once crossed my mind that Maren's brother could be my Callum from online.
02:30The Callum standing in front of me was different.
02:33Cold.
02:34Distant.
02:36Completely unapproachable.
02:38But online, he was...
02:42Miss me?
02:44Nope.
02:46Liar.
02:48Oh, shut up.
02:51Leela.
02:52Sooner or later, you're gonna be mine.
02:58Your brother, how many girlfriends has he had?
03:01Only one.
03:03And even that was online.
03:05Online?
03:05Yeah.
03:06He was crazy about her.
03:08Then, out of nowhere, she just dumped him.
03:10Brutal.
03:12He was crazy about her?
03:14Like her?
03:14He was gone for her.
03:16He'd wait for her call every night.
03:18He kept trying to send her money, but she never took a dime.
03:21And after all that, they never even got to meet.
03:23She just disappeared.
03:25Ever since then, he's been a walking time bomb, snapping at everybody.
03:28So if he's rude to you, don't take it personally.
03:31He's like that with everyone these days.
03:40Great.
03:41The heartless woman who dumped him was sitting right here in his house, and he had no idea.
03:46That woman was me.
03:55Lena, make yourself at home.
03:56Stay as long as you like.
03:57Make yourself at home.
03:58Thank you, Mrs. Montrose.
03:59Just call me Celia.
04:01Mom, you're nicer to her than you are to me.
04:03Because Lena's more thoughtful than you are.
04:04Got it.
04:05I've been replaced.
04:07Relax, Lena.
04:08He's never seen what you really look like.
04:11To him, I was just Lila.
04:13A fake photo.
04:14A voice on the phone.
04:15Oh, right.
04:16What did you think of that girl you met yesterday?
04:19She was fine.
04:20You've seen her twice.
04:22So?
04:22Then you should at least know what she looks like by now.
04:24Don't remember.
04:25Every girl I introduce you to, you turn down.
04:27You're 26, and you don't even have a girlfriend.
04:29Sometimes I honestly wonder if you're even into girls.
04:31Mom!
04:31What is it?
04:32He's definitely into girls.
04:33Trust me.
04:35Hey, I'm helping your case here.
04:36Gee, thanks.
04:37Anytime.
04:37He's just unlucky in love.
04:39And the girl he actually liked just happened to be really good at disappearing on him.
04:43That online girl again?
04:44Who else?
04:45Since she dumped him, when's the last time you've seen him crack a smile?
04:51Lena.
04:52Hartwell.
04:53Huh?
04:54You've been nervous ever since you got here.
04:56No, I'm not.
04:57You sure?
04:58I just didn't sleep well last night.
05:01That's not what this looks like.
05:03Then what does it look like?
05:06Like you're hiding something.
05:09Lena.
05:11What did you do that you weren't supposed to?
05:18I, uh...
05:20Callum.
05:22Don't give her a hard time.
05:24Lena's a guest in our home.
05:26Can't you be a little nicer to her?
05:28I was just asking.
05:31Wait.
05:32Didn't I only mention Lena's name once yesterday?
05:35So what?
05:36So you actually remembered her name.
05:38Well, that's a first.
05:39Lena, you have no idea.
05:41My brother usually can't even remember the names that the girl's mom sets him up with.
05:44Names?
05:44Please.
05:45He's seen a girl twice and still couldn't remember her face.
05:50You two done?
05:51Hit a nerve, huh?
05:53Just eat your food.
05:56It's just a name.
05:57It shouldn't mean anything.
05:59There's no way he could recognize me.
06:05That's what you get for insisting on sleeping with the window open last night.
06:09How was I supposed to know it would get colder overnight?
06:13You should get some rest.
06:16My dear Lena.
06:18What do you want?
06:19If my brother gives you a hard time again, tell me.
06:22I'll yell at him for you.
06:23Worry about yourself first.
06:31Are you heading out?
06:32Cleaning up another mess for my workaholic son.
06:36Callum?
06:36He was in such a hurry this morning.
06:38He forgot some important papers at home.
06:40That's not like him at all.
06:41I have no idea what's going on with him lately.
06:44I can take them to him for you.
06:46You?
06:47Yes.
06:47No, sweetheart.
06:48I don't want to put you out.
06:49Really, it's no trouble.
06:50Mehran's asleep and I don't have anything planned today anyway.
06:52But you're letting me stay here for free.
06:55It's just dropping off some papers.
06:57It's the least I can do.
07:00Then I really appreciate it.
07:01No big deal.
07:02I'll text you the address.
07:06Hold on.
07:07I'm going to Callum's office?
07:10Alone?
07:24Ruthless.
07:25Calculating.
07:27Distant.
07:29Untouchable.
07:30That was the Callum everyone online seemed to know.
07:33But the callous I knew...
07:45Lila?
07:46Mm?
07:46Are you crying?
07:47No.
07:47I can always tell when you're lying, your voice gives you away.
07:50Your parents again?
07:50They're getting divorced.
07:52Cry if you need to.
07:53I'm not hanging up.
07:54I'm right here with you.
07:55Freshman year, my parents were splitting up.
07:57I couldn't stand being alone at night.
07:59That's when Callum came into my life.
08:04Buy yourself something nice.
08:07You haven't eaten yet.
08:08Order something.
08:10Why'd you send it back?
08:12I don't want it.
08:14Not enough?
08:16Callum.
08:17Okay, I'll stop teasing you.
08:19But you still need to eat.
08:20He was always trying to send me money, but I never took a cent.
08:24All I wanted was someone to talk to.
08:26I never wanted anything from him.
08:29Let's meet in person.
08:31What school do you go to?
08:32I'll come see you.
08:33Don't.
08:34Why?
08:39There's no point in meeting anymore.
08:41I just don't feel the same way anymore.
08:43Let's just end it here.
08:56Back then, I thought if I just disappeared, he'd get over me soon enough.
08:59But according to Maren, he was crazy about that girl.
09:02Then, out of nowhere, she dumped him.
09:04After that, he was never the same.
09:05He never got over me.
09:07Not even a little.
09:10Miss, we're here.
09:20Hi, I'm here to drop off some documents for Callum Montrose.
09:23Do you have an appointment with Mr. Montrose?
09:25No.
09:26His mother asked me to drop these documents off for him.
09:28May I have your name?
09:29Lena Hartweld.
09:32Miss Hartweld?
09:32Right this way.
09:33I'll just leave them here.
09:34Mr. Montrose's office is on the top floor.
09:36Can't I just leave them here?
09:38Please.
09:41Good.
09:44Too late to run now.
09:50Mr. Montrose, we can resubmit the European market proposal by 3 this afternoon.
09:54I didn't ask for a resubmission.
09:55I want results.
09:56Understood.
09:58So this was Callum at work.
10:00Compared to the guy who wouldn't leave me alone on the phone every night,
10:03they hardly seemed like the same person.
10:05Mr. Montrose, this is...
10:08my friend.
10:09Understood.
10:10Take her to my office.
10:11No, that's okay.
10:12I'm just here to drop off the documents.
10:14Now that I've done that, I should get going.
10:17I've got ten minutes.
10:18Really, you don't need to make time for me.
10:23Could you give this to him for me?
10:24Of course.
10:29Of course.
10:31Did I say you could leave?
10:38I only came to drop off the documents.
10:41They're delivered, so of course I'm heading back.
10:44Wait for me.
10:46Why?
10:46I've got one more meeting.
10:48Ten minutes.
10:49Wait for me in my office.
10:50I need to talk to you.
10:52Why can't you just say it now?
10:56Not here.
10:57Take her to my office.
10:58Will do.
11:02What could he possibly want to say to me?
11:04Wait, did he figure me out?
11:10Really, I'm good.
11:11If I drink any more, my heart's going to start racing.
11:13Then please wait here.
11:14Mr. Montrose will be back soon.
11:22Mr. Montrose.
11:22Sit down.
11:23You don't work for me, so don't call me that.
11:26So you wouldn't let me leave?
11:27What is it you wanted to say?
11:28Got your phone?
11:29What are you going to do?
11:31Give me your number.
11:32I'll send you the money for today's ride.
11:34No, it's fine.
11:34Is that all?
11:35What else?
11:36The ride didn't cost much.
11:38Besides, you're already letting me stay at your place for free.
11:42My mom and Maren are the ones who asked you to stay.
11:45You bringing me those documents is a different matter.
11:47I don't like being in anyone's debt.
11:52It's just Cab Face.
11:55Why is he so insistent on getting my number?
11:58Is he testing me?
12:03Phone.
12:13Thank God.
12:14I got rid of my old account after freshman year.
12:16The one I use now has nothing tying it to anything from two years ago.
12:20That profile picture?
12:21I picked it out for him two years ago.
12:24He never changed it.
12:32Get up, Lena.
12:33Quit playing dead.
12:34It's Nolan's birthday tonight.
12:35Everyone's going.
12:36I'm not going.
12:39For the past two days, you've only come out to eat.
12:41Keep hiding in your room like this and you're going to turn into a hermit.
12:44I just need a few quiet days to myself.
12:47Oh, please.
12:48Nolan's known us since high school.
12:49If you don't go, you'll never hear the end of it.
12:52What time?
12:53Seven.
12:56Your brother's such a pain.
12:58What'd he do?
12:59He had to know where I was going, who I'd be with, and when I'd be back.
13:02He'd think I was 12.
13:05You told him?
13:06Of course.
13:07It's Nolan's birthday.
13:08It's not exactly a secret.
13:10Happy birthday, Nolan.
13:11Lena, I told you not to bring me anything.
13:13I couldn't exactly show up empty-handed.
13:15You're still the same.
13:16Always making sure everything's even.
13:18Come on, let's go inside.
13:24Lena, why are you so quiet tonight?
13:25You seeing anyone these days?
13:27No.
13:28Still no one?
13:29Is that weird?
13:31Oh, I'm just worried about you.
13:34Guys love to say personality is what matters, but come on.
13:36The first thing they notice is your face and your body.
13:40Peggy.
13:41What?
13:41I'm not wrong.
13:42I always tell my sister, if the packaging isn't pretty enough, who's going to care what's inside?
13:48All right, let's change the subject.
13:50Lena, I'm only saying this because I care.
13:52You can't wait around forever.
13:54Prince Charming isn't just going to fall out of the sky and come rescue you.
13:58I'm not waiting for anyone to save me.
14:01I know.
14:01I just don't want you setting your sights too high.
14:04Peggy, I think you've had enough.
14:05I'm just being honest.
14:17Sorry, I'm late, babe.
14:24Babe, he'd never called me that in real life.
14:27That was hours, from two years ago.
14:30You should have told me you had plans tonight.
14:31I would have come sooner.
14:35Um, I...
14:35Happy birthday.
14:36Hey, thanks.
14:37Great, just great.
14:39Don't mind me, I'm only your sister.
14:40Stay and have fun.
14:41There's free cake.
14:42I'll survive.
14:48Seatbelt, babe.
14:49Can you stop calling me that?
14:51Why?
14:52It's just, I'm not used to it.
14:53Is that so?
14:58You've been jumpy all night.
14:59Have I?
15:01Yeah.
15:04You know what's strange?
15:06What?
15:07Lately, I keep thinking about this girl I used to talk to.
15:09She could never fall asleep before two in the morning.
15:12Not once.
15:14Sounds kind of annoying.
15:16Sounds familiar, doesn't it?
15:18Not familiar at all.
15:19I go to bed early.
15:21Then I must be thinking of someone else.
15:30Don't stay up too late, Lena.
15:31Mm.
15:36Try.
15:39If you can.
15:42Two years ago, I told him over and over that I could never fall asleep before two in the morning.
15:46Oh, God.
15:48He's testing me.
15:49Callum's starting to suspect me.
15:54Wake up, Lena.
15:55Come on, wake up.
15:59We've got something tonight.
16:01We need to go dress shopping.
16:03Do we have to go right now?
16:05Look at you.
16:06If you sleep any longer, you might as well wear your pajamas out tonight.
16:13I'll drive you, too.
16:14You?
16:15Shopping with us?
16:16Just driving you.
16:17That sounds more like you.
16:21Last night was scary enough.
16:23The last thing I want right now is to be alone with him.
16:25I'll pick you up in an hour.
16:27Got it.
16:27Got it.
16:28God, you nag.
16:28Anyone would think you're my dad.
16:35Miss Montaume, it's so nice to see you again.
16:37We're looking for two dresses for tonight.
16:41And this is your friend?
16:43Yeah, she's getting one, too.
16:45Of course.
16:45The new collection is in the back.
16:47Just a heads up, though.
16:48Our cuts can be a little unforgiving.
16:49It's fine.
16:50I'll just look around myself.
16:58What do you think?
17:00Haven't found anything I like yet.
17:05Sweetheart, I'm only trying to save you some time.
17:07Our clothes simply aren't designed for every body type.
17:09I know.
17:10There's a clothing store two blocks away.
17:12They have a much wider selection,
17:13and they're especially good for girls like you.
17:16Girls like me?
17:17You know what I mean.
17:20What exactly do you mean by that?
17:22Forget it.
17:22What do you mean, forget it?
17:24Let's go.
17:25I wasn't that set on buying anything anyway.
17:41Where are you going?
17:42Nothing.
17:43I just don't feel like buying anything anymore.
17:45Couldn't find anything you liked?
17:47No.
17:48Why?
17:49Mr. Montrose, we were just saying
17:50that our collection might not be the best fit.
17:52Not a good fit for my what?
17:52Your companion.
17:53It's mainly a sizing issue.
17:55Get your manager.
17:57Sir, this was just a misunderstanding.
17:58Now.
18:00Callum, let it go.
18:01Pick one.
18:02What?
18:03Didn't you come here to buy a dress?
18:05Go pick one.
18:05I don't want one.
18:06Then pick a few.
18:07Callum.
18:08Take them all if you want.
18:09I don't mind.
18:10Mr. Montrose, I'm truly sorry.
18:12May I ask what happened?
18:13Your employee just suggested
18:14that my girlfriend take her business elsewhere.
18:16Your girlfriend?
18:17Is there a problem?
18:18No, of course not.
18:19We sincerely apologize.
18:20How much for the store?
18:22I'm sorry, what do you mean?
18:23I'm buying it.
18:26Starting today, every piece in this store
18:27will be remade to fit her size.
18:28Adjust the designs, customize them, redo the patterns.
18:30I don't care how you do it.
18:31Understood.
18:32As for her, I don't want to see her again before I leave.
18:35Hold on.
18:36You bought an entire store for Lena?
18:38Yeah.
18:39And you had them remake every piece in her size?
18:41Yeah.
18:42And then you just announced to everyone
18:43that she was your girlfriend?
18:44Yeah.
18:46Bro, what's gotten into you?
18:50Get in, babe.
18:56He is back.
19:04Lena, open the door.
19:07I know you're awake.
19:08Open it, or I'll open it myself.
19:25Callum, what are you doing?
19:30Sit down.
19:31What?
19:32Sit down, Lena.
19:39I don't want to meet up anymore.
19:41I feel like my feelings have changed.
19:44I think we should end things.
19:49Hi, Lila.
19:54Six months.
19:57Do you have any idea how I got through those six months?
20:00I hired three private investigators to find you.
20:02They found nothing.
20:04Because everything you ever told me was fake.
20:07Your name, your age, even your picture.
20:10I can explain.
20:12Okay.
20:13Explain it to me.
20:18I just thought
20:20once you saw who I really was,
20:21you'd stop wanting me.
20:23All.
20:24That's all it was.
20:26You liked the person you heard on the phone.
20:29You liked the girl in the photo.
20:32But she wasn't me.
20:33She never was.
20:34I know exactly who I fell for.
20:36You'd never even seen me before!
20:38But I knew you.
20:40I knew who you were.
20:41I didn't fall for a picture.
20:44I fell for the girl who cried at 2 a.m.
20:46because her parents were getting divorced.
20:49The girl who wouldn't take my money.
20:52The girl who called me in the middle of the night
20:53and didn't need to say anything.
20:55She just needed to hear me breathe.
20:59What did the picture have to do with the girl I knew?
21:02But now you've seen the real me.
21:04Yeah.
21:06I see you now.
21:10So,
21:12what happens now?
21:13Don't run away this time.
21:23You're not going to leave me?
21:25I'm not leaving.
21:27Then why are you sitting on the floor?
21:31Because if I sit beside you,
21:33I won't want to leave.
21:41Are you really going to sit there all night?
21:45Yeah.
21:47Don't you have work tomorrow?
21:49I do.
21:51Then why aren't you going to sleep?
21:53I'm fine.
21:55Go to sleep.
21:58Lina,
21:58go to sleep.
22:09Two years ago,
22:10I used to fall asleep while we were on the phone,
22:12and he'd always stay until I was the one who hung up.
22:15Now he's finally here,
22:17right in front of me,
22:18and somehow,
22:19I don't know how to face it.
22:21I don't know how to face it.
22:46Morning.
22:49Oh, my God.
22:51Hold on.
22:52Did you just smile?
22:54Maren.
22:55Wait, you never smile.
22:56Like, ever.
22:57And now you're sitting at the breakfast table before 10?
23:00Lina, what did you do to him?
23:03Get out.
23:04Fine.
23:05Fine.
23:05I'm leaving.
23:06I'll just go back to being the invisible sister.
23:10Come here.
23:18Callum?
23:19Just for a little while.
23:20Are you okay?
23:23I don't know.
23:24Take it easy.
23:26You really still don't care?
23:28Care for what?
23:31Lina, I care about all of you.
23:33Not the picture.
23:35Not some version of you you thought I wanted.
23:37You.
23:39What I can accept
23:41is that you thought you had to be someone else
23:43for anyone to love you.
23:45This time, we'll start over.
23:48We'll make up for everything we missed,
23:49one thing at a time.
23:51What do you mean?
23:53Everything.
23:56What's wrong?
24:01Camila's back.
24:02Camila's back.
24:12Camila, I've heard about her from Marlon.
24:14She's the girl Celia has always wanted Callum to marry.
24:20What's wrong?
24:21Who is Camila?
24:24Camila.
24:25Oh, no.
24:26Who is she?
24:31Camila Weilerth.
24:32Her family is close with my mom's.
24:33We all grew up in the same social circle.
24:36She's been into my brother since she was 14.
24:39So what's the problem?
24:41She just got back from Paris.
24:43She studied fashion design.
24:45She's got a model's figure, speaks four languages,
24:47and her dad is worth half a billion.
24:51She sounds perfect.
24:53Lina, it's okay.
24:55He's turned her down for two years.
24:57This time won't be any different.
25:04Look at me.
25:05Yesterday, my brother bought an entire store because of you.
25:08He told everyone you're his girlfriend.
25:09He even slept on your floor all night.
25:12He's completely gone for you.
25:17But she's Camila.
25:21And I'm just...
25:22Get up.
25:23What?
25:25Come on, let's get out.
25:30Miss Hartwell, you're finally here.
25:33We've been expecting you.
25:35Expecting me?
25:36The team started working at six this morning.
25:38The first batch of samples is already ready.
25:40Samples?
25:42Your collection.
25:45Mr. Montreux called personally last night.
25:58Mr. Montreux said just one thing.
26:00She's never had a place that was built around her.
26:02Make it happen.
26:05Try one on.
26:07Morin.
26:07Just one.
26:10Lina, this is what happens when clothes are designed to fit you
26:13instead of forcing you to fit the clothes.
26:22You must be Lina.
26:25Camille, I told you not to...
26:27I just saw the car outside, so I came in to say hello.
26:30Camille Wyclin.
26:31Callum and I grew up together.
26:34It's okay.
26:35I understand.
26:36Camille, that's enough.
26:38Two minutes.
26:39I just want to say a few words to her.
26:42I have no intention of being rude.
26:44But there are things that need to be made clear.
26:46And the sooner, the better for everyone.
26:49What is it you want to say?
26:51Callum is a Montrose.
26:53His future isn't just his own.
26:55One day he'll lead the family, build a legacy, and pass it on to his children.
26:59But you?
27:01I don't think you're ready for a life like that.
27:02Camille, enough.
27:04Celia, you know I'm right.
27:05So?
27:06I'm not saying you're not wonderful.
27:08You are.
27:10But one day, Callum will see things clearly.
27:13And when he does?
27:15He'll realize you're just a chapter in his life.
27:18Not the whole book.
27:23Thank you for your honesty.
27:26Thank you for everything these past few days.
27:28I think it's better if I go back to the dorm tonight.
27:30Lina?
27:41It's already been a crazy day.
27:43Going back to the dorm alone right now is only going to make you overthink.
27:47Just stay for tonight.
27:48If you really want to leave tomorrow, I'll help you pack your things.
27:52Okay.
28:02What's this?
28:04The charity gala.
28:05Tonight.
28:07Callum, I don't belong at events like that.
28:09You're my girlfriend.
28:11You have to come.
28:12You don't need to prove anything.
28:14Just being there with me is enough.
28:33I don't think you're ready for a life like that.
28:35I don't think you're ready for a life like that.
29:00This is Lina, my girlfriend.
29:08Callum, about tomorrow's board meeting.
29:10Work stuff, babe.
29:11Two minutes.
29:30Camille was right.
29:32Everyone here seems like they were made for this world more than I was.
29:42You paint the faces to take the spines.
30:08The Montrose residence, right?
30:11Sorry, change of plans.
30:12Take me to the dorm.
30:23Lena, I know you're in there.
30:25Open the door.
30:26Your phone is off.
30:27I found the last taxi.
30:28It brought you here.
30:30Lena, tell me where you are.
30:31Answer me.
30:38Lena, please.
30:40Just answer me.
30:42Go home.
30:45What did I do wrong, Lena?
30:48Then why did you leave?
30:49Go home, Callum.
30:51Tell me.
30:51What did I do wrong?
30:53Nothing.
30:54Then open the door.
30:55Not tonight.
30:57Lena, please.
31:24Lena, where are you?
31:25When you see this, please let me know you're safe.
31:27I checked your old apartment.
31:29You weren't there.
31:33If I crossed a line last night, tell me.
31:35Just don't disappear without letting me know you're okay.
31:37Please.
31:38Please call me back.
31:40I thought I was running away from Callum last night.
31:42But this morning I realized I wasn't even sure what I was running from.
31:46Was it Camille?
31:47Or was it the part of myself that still believed I wasn't enough, no matter how much Callum tried to
31:51prove otherwise?
32:00Someone dropped this off for you.
32:01They told me to make sure you eat it while it's hot.
32:11You used to feel sick whenever you stayed up too late.
32:14I don't know if you want to see me yet.
32:15And I won't force you.
32:28Your food just arrived.
32:30It's downstairs.
32:31Why do you keep sending me things?
32:34Because someone was running a fever and still said she was fine.
32:37Drink the soup first.
32:38You can fight with me after.
32:46Lena, I know you're upstairs.
32:48I'm not asking you to come down.
32:49Just come to the window.
32:50Let me see you once.
32:57I know what Camille said to you yesterday and I understand why you left.
33:00But I need you to hear my side of what happened.
33:02Not through a door.
33:03Not like this.
33:04Come down or let me come up.
33:06Please.
33:07You wanted to explain, right?
33:09I'm here.
33:09Go ahead.
33:11Camille said a lot about you last night.
33:13Some of what she said was completely unfair.
33:15How bad was it?
33:17You don't need to hear what she said.
33:19I wasn't laughing because I believed her.
33:21I was laughing because she thought any of that would make me choose differently.
33:25But you never looked that happy with me.
33:27Seeing you two together made me realize she fits into your world so naturally and I don't.
33:34Because with you I can't pretend.
33:37Everyone in that room knew how to put on a perfect smile and say all the right words.
33:41But you were the only person who was honest with me.
33:44Do you want to know how I answered her?
33:46What did you say?
33:48I told her none of those things mattered.
33:50The only thing that mattered was that you're the woman I want to marry.
34:01Carlum, you don't really know me yet.
34:02You don't know the things I love or the things I can't stand.
34:05And you're already talking about marriage.
34:07How can you be so sure?
34:08You're right.
34:09There are things I still don't know.
34:11But I know the parts of you that matter.
34:12More than Camille ever did even after all these years.
34:15I know you pretend you're okay when you're hurt.
34:17I know you run when you're scared.
34:19And I know your voice changes when you're not telling the truth.
34:25Tomorrow.
34:25Pack your things from the dorm.
34:27You're coming home with me.
34:29Carlum.
34:30If you turn me down I'll just sleep outside your dorm every night.
34:32The second you say yes I'll go back to sleeping in my own bed.
34:34Is that a threat?
34:36Maybe I don't have any other way.
34:38I already let myself lose you once.
34:40I won't let that happen again.
34:47You don't have to sleep on the floor again tonight, right?
34:51I'll stay until you're asleep.
34:53I'm not going anywhere.
34:55Coming from you?
34:56That's a little hard to believe.
34:59Fine.
35:00Then sit there.
35:06I'll be in meetings until six.
35:08If you leave the house, send me a message so I know you're okay.
35:15Morning, sunshine.
35:18Hold on.
35:18You look exhausted.
35:20Did you get any sleep last night?
35:22Thanks for the concern.
35:23That really made me feel so much better.
35:32Who is it?
35:35No one.
35:37Just a spam text.
35:45You came after all.
35:47I wasn't sure you'd be willing to meet me.
35:52How did you get my number?
35:54I've been in the Montlead family's contact list since I was 14.
35:58Getting your number wasn't exactly difficult.
36:02Go ahead.
36:03Open it.
36:04If the reason you asked me here is to convince me to leave Caribum,
36:07then this conversation is already over.
36:10This isn't about careless in me.
36:12Lena, I'm asking you.
36:13Just look.
36:20This photo, where did you get this?
36:24Her name is Phoebe.
36:26She's part of my family.
36:34Your family?
36:36Three years ago, Phoebe uploaded this photo to her social media account.
36:39At the time, her account was public.
36:42Someone later saved the image and reposted it elsewhere.
36:46That's how it eventually reached you.
36:50I just found a random photo back then.
36:52I didn't know who she was.
36:54I had no idea.
36:56Phoebe posted this last spring.
36:57Three hours later, she deleted it herself.
37:01Because around that time, people started coming after her.
37:04They kept asking if she was Lila, why she had vanished,
37:07and some even pressured her to get in touch with Callum.
37:11Lila?
37:13Yes.
37:14The exact name you told Callum years ago.
37:17Phoebe told them countless times that she wasn't Lila.
37:20But they didn't care.
37:23The photo they had showed her face,
37:25and that was all they needed to believe.
37:28Eventually, one of them followed her home.
37:31It happened only once, but once was more than enough.
37:37After that, she began leaving the lights on when she slept.
37:40She checked the locks three times every night.
37:42She even changed her route to school.
37:44She had done nothing wrong.
37:47But she was the one who started living in fear of strangers.
37:52I didn't know.
37:54I never meant for any of this to happen.
37:58I know you never meant for it to happen.
38:00But it doesn't change what happened.
38:03What happened next?
38:04Why did they suddenly stop coming after her?
38:06I don't remember.
38:07I knew you were.
