Short filmTranscript
00:00I've always had a strong sex drive, for three years Ethan Hayes never once satisfied me, but tonight, the Las
00:06Vegas Flower Gala, a dozen billionaire, heiresses lined up on stage, one by one, their bust sizes were measured, waiting
00:14to be chosen, an orchid meant an arranged marriage, no orchid meant your family would sell you off to the
00:20highest bidder, I am Chloe, I was born curvy, but I was the casino king's illegitimate daughter, so no one
00:27would ever choose me,
00:28Toe Knight, the only man who could save me was the one I'd loved for ten years, he was standing
00:34right there, Ethan smiled at the girl beside him, then he placed the orchid in her hands, that was supposed
00:40to be mine, he knew it, everyone knew it, you deserve this Lily, you have class, class one word, and
00:48I became the punchline of the entire room, yesterday he promised me, three years, just give me three years and
00:55I'll handle everything, no one's going to force you into marriage,
00:58Today he handed my future to a girl he met six months ago, Lily walked over to me, she looked
01:04nervous, Chloe I'm so sorry, I told him not to, I really did, then she touched the orchid on her
01:10wrist, straightened it slowly, making sure I saw it, her eyes never changed, that is the thing about Lily, her
01:17mouth says sorry, her hand said he's mine now, Ethan walked over with a drink in his hand, casual, relaxed,
01:24like nothing happened,
01:25Don't be dramatic, Chloe
01:26He grabbed a rose from a passing tray and held it out, the thorns were still on, the stem was
01:32broken halfway
01:33Here, you look better in red anyway
01:35A broken rose, for the broken girl, got it
01:38Why are you making such a fuss over one orchid?
01:41The laughter around me grew louder
01:43She's the bastard daughter, what did she expect?
01:46Before I could respond, a voice cut through the crowd, Vivian, graceful as always, untouchable as ever, she walked toward
01:53me with a champagne glass in her hand, smiling, the kind of smile that made everyone think she was a
01:58loving mother
01:59Chloe, darling, we raised you for 18 years, fed you, clothed you, put a roof over your head, and this
02:06is how you repay us? Making a scene at the gala?
02:09She glanced at the rose in my hand, then at the orchid on Lily's wrist
02:13Some girls are orchids, some girls aren't, know your place
02:20300 people watching, not one of them on my side, then my third sister stepped forward, like she'd been waiting
02:26for this
02:27If I were you I wouldn't have shown up tonight, how embarrassing
02:30She circled me slowly, then she reached out and touched the necklace around my neck
02:34This belongs to the Carter family
02:36She unclasped it, I didn't move
02:39The earrings too
02:40One then the other, dropped onto a silver tray a waiter was forced to hold
02:44The bracelet
02:45Gone, the room was so quiet I could hear the jewelry hitting the tray
02:50My sister looked me up and down, then smiled
02:52Take off the dress too, mom said you've enjoyed enough of the Carter family's kindness
02:56From now on you're on your own
02:59I looked at Vivian, she sipped her champagne, and nodded, so I reached behind my back and unzipped the dress
03:05myself
03:07The fabric slid off my shoulders, then pulled at my feet
03:11300 people, camera flashes, whispers
03:14I stood there in nothing but a silk slip
03:17My whole body is just exposed like this, from head to toe for everyone to see
03:22My sister finally stopped smiling, she didn't expect me to actually do it
03:26Vivian's glass paused halfway to her lips, even she didn't expect that
03:31I picked up the dress, folded it neatly, and placed it on the tray, on top of the jewelry
03:40There? That's everything
03:45Now we're even
03:46Then I looked at Ethan, he was frozen, his face was white
03:50Chloe
03:51I turned around, and walked through 300 people barefoot, in a silk slip
03:56With nothing to my name, my sister's voice echoed behind me
04:00Oh right, one more thing, that man in DC? I heard he already has someone he truly loves
04:05Good luck
04:07My mother died young, I was taken back to the Carter family when I was still a child
04:12The way Vivian looked at me, it was as if she wanted me dead
04:15My father had too many women to even count
04:18Of course, he never cared whether a daughter like me lived or died
04:21I learned to read people from a very young age
04:24How to survive, if it weren't for this face
04:26I probably wouldn't have made it this far in one piece, so I survived in the cracks
04:31And I went to my uncle, I begged him to train me, to bet on me, that man never smiled
04:36So I held myself together, even when I was shaking inside, making a deal with a tiger means you don't
04:41get to be afraid
04:42Your father has over 20 children, why should I bet on you, you're just an illegitimate daughter
04:47Because I have nothing to lose, and I'm not afraid to bleed
04:50But the time still isn't right, and Uncle Henry won't help me
04:54As for that man in DC I heard he's cruel, cross him once, and he'll make you pay for it
04:5910 times over
05:00The Carter family wants in with him, but they can't bear to sacrifice their real daughters
05:05So they picked me, of course they did
05:07Uncle Henry had probably already heard how tonight ended
05:10He sent me one text
05:11You lost, figure it out yourself
05:14I shivered and wrapped my arms around myself
05:16I left the banquet and got into the car Uncle Henry sent
05:20He was already inside, dressed in black, cold as ice
05:23No smile, not even a trace
05:25You lost the bet, tomorrow you leave for DC
05:28What happens next depends on your own fate
05:30I'll come back
05:31We'll see
05:32The corner of his mouth lifted, cold, faint, merciless
05:35Just like that, he kicked me out of the game
05:38On social media, Lily was smiling brightly
05:40Thank you for giving me the most beautiful night of my life
05:44Now it's my turn to repay you
05:46The man with his arm around her was still wearing the cufflinks I gave him
05:50The next morning before sunrise, I left
05:53No goodbye, no looking back
05:55Just a backpack and a one-way trip to the airport
05:58Security
05:59Boarding everything went smoothly
06:01As the plane began to taxi, I shut off my phone for good
06:04Just like that
06:05I cut off everything connected to Las Vegas
06:08Then the announcement came
06:09Ladies and gentlemen, we are incredibly sorry
06:12We have been ordered to return to the gate
06:14Mr. Hayes has bought out every flight today to locate one person
06:23I watched the view outside the window
06:25It suddenly slowed down
06:27Just a second ago
06:28Everything had still been rushing past
06:30My mind went blank
06:31The second the plane stopped
06:33My phone got signal again
06:34Calls came flooding in
06:36Messages too
06:37Then a payment alert popped up
06:39We sincerely apologize for disturbing your trip
06:41As compensation, the Hayes family will reimburse today's tickets at 10 times the original price
06:46The cabin went dead silent
06:48Not one person said a word
06:50Then a few girls behind me started whispering
06:52Who is the Hayes family looking for?
06:55They're really making this big of a scene?
06:56This is straight out of a drama
06:58I looked at my phone
06:59My chest tightened
07:01Early that morning, Ethan had gone to the Carter house to find me
07:04When he saw I was gone, he walked straight into my room
07:07The dress from last night was still there
07:09So was the jewelry
07:10Everything was untouched
07:12Except the backpack I used all the time
07:14That was when he lost it
07:16He dragged the whole family out of bed
07:18He questioned every single one of them
07:20That was when he found out I'd already left for DC
07:23He nearly tore the whole house apart
07:25He called me right away
07:26But by then, I was already on the plane
07:29When he realized I hadn't kept a thing from him, he snapped
07:32He grounded every flight and forced them back
07:34I got off the plane with my backpack
07:36Then I stood in the airport completely torn
07:39Should I go back or keep going?
07:41It was still early and I was starving
07:43So I decided to grab a bite of steak first
07:45I could think after I ate
07:47Right then, a text from Uncle Henry came in
07:49Do you want to come back?
07:50The Hayes family is still willing to have you
07:52The Carter family was full of schemes
07:54Ethan might have spoiled me
07:56But there was no way he'd throw away his pride for me
07:59If I went back now, all I'd get would be cold stares
08:02If I kept going, maybe I still had a chance
08:04I was halfway through my steak when a group of men in black stormed in
08:08Any woman who looked even a little pretty got stopped and questioned
08:11A second later, Ethan rushed in too
08:14He walked right past me
08:15He was drenched in sweat
08:17His phone was clenched in his hand
08:19He looked shaken, almost helpless
08:21He kept calling my number, over and over
08:23My phone would not stop vibrating
08:25When no one picked up, he got so mad he almost smashed it
08:29The men in black searched everywhere
08:31They came back with nothing
08:32Where is she?
08:33Keep every route blocked
08:35Do not let a single plane fly to DC
08:37It was the first time I had ever seen Ethan that rattled
08:40That out of control
08:41I checked the flights
08:43The plane to NYC had already changed destinations
08:46I sat there waiting to board, scrolling through the news
08:49Las Vegas tabloids were always insane and ridiculous
08:52The top headline was all about the Hayes family's golden boy
08:56In giant red letters, it read, Ethan Hayes was seen with a new beauty last night
09:01So why is he buying out an entire flight route today?
09:04This kind of love is unreal
09:05If a guy came after me like that, I'd say yes on the spot
09:08What do you know?
09:11At the flower gala last night, Mr. Hayes picked some sponsored girl
09:15I bet she conned him
09:17What?
09:18He passed on all those rich girls?
09:20And now he regrets it?
09:22I pressed my lips together
09:23I said nothing
09:24I just took a sip of coffee
09:26I'm telling you
09:27Mr. Hayes probably didn't even know giving her that flower meant a confession
09:30Wow
09:31You even know that?
09:33That's nothing
09:34I got invited to last night's gala too
09:36I froze
09:37For a second, I thought maybe I knew her
09:39I glanced back and didn't recognize her
09:41So lucky
09:42It's not a big deal
09:44My family knows people in Las Vegas' upper circle
09:47So what did that girl look like?
09:49Really pretty
09:50Or like
09:51Like seriously gorgeous
09:54No one can figure out why Mr. Hayes gave the flower to some outsider
09:58But honestly, same difference
09:59Then the girl switched tones
10:01Pure contempt
10:02That pretty girl?
10:03She's just an illegitimate daughter
10:06She's nothing like us
10:07We're the real daughters
10:09I let out an awkward little cough
10:11Both girls turned around
10:12She still didn't notice anything
10:14If anything, she got louder
10:16Maybe Ethan will wise up and pick me
10:18I'm the princess of my family
10:20I had zero interest in eavesdropping any longer
10:23So I got up and paid my bill
10:25As I passed
10:26The loudest girl saw my face
10:28Her whole expression froze
10:30What?
10:31You know her?
10:32The other girl looked up at me
10:33She's gorgeous
10:36You're
10:36She glanced past me at the men
10:38Still searching all over the airport
10:40Then she started stammering
10:42Wait
10:44Ethan's looking for you
10:45I put a finger to my lips
10:47Both girls slapped their hands over their mouths
10:50Their eyes went huge
10:51I had already walked a good distance away
10:53When one of them finally screamed
10:55You never said she looked like that
10:57You seriously have no shot
10:59The second I got to the gate
11:01Another refund alert hit my phone
11:03I almost laughed
11:04The Hayes family had reached everywhere
11:06They had actually bought out flights to other cities too
11:09I gripped my phone
11:10I really didn't know whether to go forward or turn back
11:13While I was still hesitating
11:15A call came in
11:16A DC number
11:17Hello?
11:19Who's this?
11:20Ryan Shaw
11:20The man I was supposed to marry
11:22His voice was cool
11:23Low, clean
11:24Way too easy to like
11:26I'm sorry
11:26My plane is on the tarmac
11:28Walk outside
11:29They'll bring you to me
11:30I was just about to explain
11:32Ethan had shut down the flight routes
11:34When I saw it
11:35A private jet was parked out on the tarmac
11:37A few older men in black
11:39Got off and stood there waiting
11:40Straight backed respectful
11:43Okay
11:43I hung up quietly and headed straight for the plane
11:46The second I stepped outside
11:48An umbrella opened over my head
11:50Mrs. Shaw
11:51We're here to take you home
11:52Right then
11:54Ethan finally saw me
11:58He strode over fast
12:00And grabbed my wrist
12:01Chloe
12:02You're coming with me
12:04Several bodyguards moved in at once
12:06They closed around me
12:07At the same time
12:08Ryan's people stepped in front of me too
12:10Both sides squared off
12:12The people nearby instantly pulled out their phones
12:15Nobody wanted to miss this
12:17The man leading Ryan's side looked like a family butler
12:20Sharp suit, perfect posture
12:22Old school money from head to toe
12:24He was smiling
12:25But there wasn't one ounce of warmth in it
12:28Mr. Hayes
12:29I'm here to bring Mrs. Shaw back
12:32Please let go
12:33We're still in Las Vegas
12:34I'd like to see who thinks they can take her
12:37Then he looked straight at me through the crowd around us
12:39Your family was forcing you into this marriage
12:41Why didn't you tell me?
12:43I almost laughed from frustration
12:46Ethan
12:47You protected me for years
12:50I'm grateful for that
12:51Things ended up here
12:53I don't blame anyone
12:54What the hell does that mean?
12:56You don't blame anyone?
12:58If you don't blame me
12:59Then come back with me
13:00I'll talk to your family
13:02I'll marry you
13:03I looked up at him
13:04Rain started coming down
13:05His hair was a mess
13:07His eyes were red from panic
13:09Ryan's butler stayed planted in front of me
13:11Calm, professional
13:13Sorry, the time we agreed on with the Carter family has arrived
13:16Mrs. Shaw can only come with us today
13:19Ethan didn't even look at him
13:21He only stared at me
13:22I shook my head
13:23Ethan, I told you before
13:25I only wanted that three year promise from you
13:28I already have someone I like
13:30I was never planning to marry you
13:31Again?
13:32You've been stuck inside that house your whole life
13:34Who could you possibly like?
13:35I know you hate it when I call you my shadow
13:37But stop being stubborn
13:38Come back with me
13:39Let's talk when we get back, okay?
13:41Without realizing it
13:42He was pleading now
13:43And I was grateful
13:44I really was
13:45But the second he let go of my hand
13:47And gave that flower to his sponsored girl
13:49We were done
13:50We were never meant to walk the same path again
13:52Ethan, your future wife is Lily
13:54The whole city knows that now
13:56You two should be happy together
13:58Who the hell would marry some sponsored girl?
14:00Are you kidding me?
14:01I'd marry you before I'd ever marry her
14:03My eyes dimmed
14:04That was the problem with Ethan
14:06He liked me enough
14:07But never respected me enough
14:09And in that moment
14:10Every bit of hesitation finally left me
14:12I followed the butler
14:13And strode toward the plane
14:15Ethan stayed where he was
14:17His eyes looked ready to spit fire
14:19Chloe!
14:20Think this through!
14:22Once you go to DC
14:23Nobody's gonna protect you anymore!
14:25So you're really not marrying me?
14:26If you walk away now
14:28Don't regret it
14:28The butler had already set out fresh clothes
14:31He pointed to the washroom and back
14:32His voice was low
14:34You should rent off
14:35Staying soaked like that
14:36Gets you sick fast
14:37The jet was ridiculously fancy
14:39No way it was rented
14:41It had to be the Shaw family's private jet figures
14:44Typical DC old money
14:46Even the Carters don't own a private jet
14:48My dad only chartered one once in a while
14:51And this thing had everything
14:53A bathroom
14:54A full bed
14:55What threw me off
14:56Was the bed itself
14:57Soft pink bedding
14:59Not exactly Ryan Shaw's vibe
15:01In the bathroom
15:01I changed into the clothes they'd prepared
15:03Then I froze again
15:05They were my exact size
15:06When I came back out
15:08The butler had already sent the bodyguards
15:10To the rear cabin
15:11I looked at him
15:12Does Mr. Shaw usually fly on this?
15:14He caught my confusion right away
15:16He bought this jet for you
15:18Everything was designed around your taste
15:21Even the bedding
15:22He picked it himself
15:24Made from the softest
15:26Most comfortable material
15:27I was stunned
15:29Something this expensive
15:30And he just gave it away
15:32To someone unrelated to him
15:33Wasn't he supposed to have a girl he loved?
15:36It's still a long flight
15:37You can rest a bit
15:39The butler kept going
15:40DC is dry
15:41We prepared a humidifier for you
15:44No one had ever cared how I felt
15:46I was always the one watching everybody else
15:48That sudden kindness threw me off
15:50I couldn't even sit still
15:52Thankfully the butler saw I was tense
15:54He quietly stepped away
15:56I took out a pen and started drawing
15:58But my mind was all over the place
15:59All I felt was dread
16:01The plane touched down on a huge stretch of green
16:03Anse looked closer
16:05I realized it wasn't a runway
16:07It was the Shaw estate
16:08I grew up rich in Las Vegas
16:10But even I had never seen anything this insane
16:13Ryan came to meet me himself
16:15He wore a soft smile
16:17Nothing like the rumors
16:18Not cold
16:19Not cruel
16:20He draped a coat over my shoulders
16:22His voice was warm
16:24Are you cold?
16:26Then I stepped aside a little
16:27Mr. Shaw
16:28I know you love someone else
16:30I know you were forced to marry me
16:32Don't worry
16:33Just give me three years
16:34I won't keep you away from her for long
16:36After that
16:38We split
16:38Someone I love?
16:40Three years?
16:42Yeah
16:43Three years?
16:45I'll do the wife thing
16:46That's it
16:47I won't interfere
16:48When the time's up
16:50I leave
16:51Clean break
16:52His brow tightened
16:53He looked at the butler
16:54That look was pure interrogation
16:56When no one answered
16:57Who told you we keep score like that?
17:00Mrs. Shaw?
17:05He hooked a finger under my chin
17:08Then leaned in closer
17:10What's mine is yours
17:11Mrs. Shaw
17:12Even after we walked inside
17:14I still hadn't snapped out of it
17:16Wasn't he supposed to be icy?
17:18Wasn't he supposed to be ruthless?
17:20Ryan Shaw's house was all sharp lines
17:22Simple furniture
17:23Cold tones
17:24Clean
17:25Precise
17:26But there was color too
17:27Pillows
17:28Rugs
17:29Flowers
17:29New additions
17:30Still
17:31Nothing looked wrong
17:32Everything fit
17:33The taste was flawless
17:35The whole place felt warmer than it should
17:37I sat on the sofa
17:39Then handed him a sheet of paper
17:41My proposal
17:43Take a look
17:45I need to borrow money
17:47I'll pay it back in installments
17:49I felt my face heat up
17:51I was the gambling king's daughter
17:53Yet I came here with one backpack
17:55No jewelry
17:56No dowry
17:57No valuables
17:58Nothing
17:59In the Shaw family's eyes
18:01That was almost insulting
18:02Before I landed
18:04I had already looked into them
18:05The Shaw family stood at the top
18:07Untouchable
18:08Unshaken
18:09They needed nothing
18:10Not money
18:11Not marriage alliances
18:12And young begging them for help
18:14Could line up across Las Vegas
18:16So I still couldn't understand it
18:18Why would the Shaw family choose the Carter family?
18:21I pressed my lips together
18:22I have no money
18:24But don't worry
18:26I'll pay you back
18:27He took my cold hand and said
18:29His palm was warm
18:30He rubbed my fingers slowly
18:32My face burned again
18:34He looked pleased
18:35Very pleased
18:36What do you need it for?
18:37I looked up
18:38Then it hit me
18:39Maybe as Ryan Shaw's wife
18:41I wasn't meant to have any financial power at all
18:43Maybe I was supposed to just spend what they gave me
18:46Maybe that was the rule
18:48Mr. Shaw
18:49I don't want to stay under the Carter family's control
18:52I won't be a useless trophy wife
18:54I won't live on handouts
18:56I want my own career
18:58And if I can
18:59I want the part of the Carter family that belongs to me
19:02Ryan paused
19:03That answer surprised him
19:04I had been too direct
19:05He reached out
19:06Rubbed my hair
19:08Then said softly
19:09Everything I have is yours
19:11My card
19:12Spend whatever you want
19:13I just couldn't tell what the distance in his eyes meant
19:16Ryan gave me a beautiful suite in the estate
19:19Bright
19:19Sunny
19:20Beautiful like a princess room
19:22I stood there stunned in the Carter family
19:24I had never had anything like this
19:26I was just the illegitimate daughter
19:28That night I finally slept well
19:30The next morning Uncle Henry came first
19:32In the Carter family
19:33Uncle Henry was the only one who had ever protected me
19:36But his kindness always had a price
19:38Always
19:39Ethan is tearing the city apart
19:41Why didn't you come back?
19:42I'm a person
19:43Not a pet that comes whenever you call
19:45Oh?
19:46I thought you already accepted your role
19:47A tool for revenge
19:48For three years I did everything a Mrs. Shaw should do
19:52I attended banquets with Ryan
19:54Stood by his side
19:55Smiled when needed
19:56Spoke when needed
19:58In that world everyone knew me
20:00They praised me
20:01Flattered me
20:02Tried to win me over
20:03To them I was a lucky girl
20:05Beautiful
20:06Quiet
20:06Harmless
20:07Ryan spoiled me
20:09Everyone saw it
20:10Three years passed
20:11I borrowed only one million from the Shaw family
20:14To outsiders I am that lucky
20:16Quiet
20:17Harmless Voss
20:18But I have never forgotten my true purpose for being here
20:21But I never forgot why I was here
20:23That one million opened the door to Las Vegas high society
20:27I used their connections
20:29Their networks
20:30Their greed
20:31Then I aimed it all at the Carter family
20:33I crushed their influence
20:35Stole their talent
20:36Cut their ground out from under them
20:38Little by little my father saw the truth
20:41All his children were useless
20:43Every one of them
20:44The other branches panicked
20:46They were scared
20:47Scared of losing money
20:48Scared of losing status
20:50So they sold their shares
20:51And I bought them secretly
20:52One by one
20:54Step by step
20:55I became a shareholder
20:56Then I tightened the noose
20:57I stirred up trouble
20:58Raised the pressure
20:59And forced them back
21:00My original capital multiplied
21:02Again and again
21:03And just when my father thought he had won the most
21:06I took the seat of the largest shareholder in the Carter family
21:09By then the Carter heirs were already finished
21:12Every single one
21:13At first
21:13Then clicking on一点
