Short filmTranscript
00:00The day I almost died, my husband let his mistress take my kidney with her own hands.
00:05He even pulled the entire medical team out of my emergency room so his mistress could get painkillers.
00:11Broken glass was inside me. I could feel my life slipping away.
00:15I grabbed his hand and begged him to save me, or my family would kill him.
00:20He laughed.
00:21Your family? You're an orphan. Stop lying.
00:25He had no idea. In my family, I was the only one who was sane.
00:30My mom was a serial killer. My dad was a sociopath.
00:34My younger brother Alden was violently protective.
00:37I had kept them away for five years to protect he.
00:40Now I was calling them home.
00:42I was in a terrible car accident, with shards of glass embedded deep in my lower abdomen.
00:47Yet my husband Talon had all the surgeons who were supposed to operate on me called over to Doreen Pardo's
00:54room.
00:55Just because she was suffering from menstrual cramps, with all of my remaining strength, I yelled.
01:01Tal! I arranged my surgery, or my family will kill you!
01:07However, Talon pinched my face.
01:09Don't talk nonsense. You're lying. You have no family.
01:16Talon and I had been together for five years.
01:19To stop him from meeting my family, I kept telling him they were doing business abroad.
01:24Why? Because in my family, I was the only one who was sane.
01:28My mom was a serial killer.
01:31My dad was a sociopath.
01:33My younger brother, Alden Nance, was violently protective.
01:37Talon knew none of this, speaking to me in a tone as if he were bestowing charity.
01:42I didn't mind that you were an orphan. I married you anyway.
01:46How can you compete with Doreen for priority in such a trifle now?
01:51Should anything happen to her, I'll lose a ten million dollar deal!
01:56With that, he sent away all of his subordinates.
01:59Since your family is so capable, I don't think you need me. Let's go.
02:05Despair engulfed my heart as I watched him leave.
02:08With all of my remaining strength, I sent a message to our family's group chat.
02:13Unbeknownst to Talon, gone with my message was his last chance to live.
02:19During the five years we lived together, he had never believed me when I told him about my family.
02:25Every time I hesitated, or implied my family was dangerous, he thought I was being unreasonable.
02:31The monitor beeped rapidly.
02:33Weston Patel, Talon's most trusted bodyguard, remained standing still at the door.
02:39After five years working for me right now, he nonchalantly watched me bleed.
02:44Soon, there was a blood pool underneath my body.
02:47I sensed that I was too severely injured to make it to my family's arrival.
02:57Weston, will you please get me a doctor? Any doctor?
03:01After shaking his head, he replied in a hoarse voice.
03:05Mr. Sanborn orders that Mediz treatment is the priority.
03:09He says your injury isn't lethal.
03:11Not lethal.
03:12I looked down at the broken glass that had pierced my abdomen, feeling my vitality leaving my body with the
03:18warm blood.
03:19He'd lost his heart to another woman now.
03:22What did my injury matter to him?
03:25My phone was still in my hand.
03:27On the screen was my family's group chat.
03:30Alden's last message read,
03:32Susie, we've just gotten on the plane.
03:34See you in two hours.
03:36He also sent me a photo of mom buying a peeler at an airport duty-free store.
03:40The caption said,
03:53Mrs. Sanherd, why won't you listen to Mr. Sanherd and apologize to Ms. Pardley?
04:04All he can think of is her now.
04:06You must face it.
04:09I shook my head indifferently and gestured for him to answer the call.
04:16I didn't know what the caller told him.
04:19Weston only had one eye.
04:20The pupil of his right I contracted.
04:22He turned abruptly to me.
04:24Mrs. Sanherd,
04:26your maiden name is Nance?
04:30The surname Nance opened the gate of my memory.
04:33After school,
04:34unlike other students who were all eager to go home,
04:37I wanted to stay in the classroom.
04:39Mom wore a faint smile every time she picked me up.
04:43However,
04:43the first thing she did when we got home was ask me to put on a mask.
04:48Susie,
04:48I'm going to dismember this man later.
04:51Go study in your room.
04:52It's going to be too bloody here.
04:54She told me years of domestic violence crushed this man's wife.
04:57As a result,
04:59the woman jumped into the sea with their child and died at midnight.
05:02Therefore,
05:03Mom decided to punish this man on behalf of his wife.
05:06I had never seen Dad kill anyone,
05:08but there were all kinds of organs in his studio.
05:11For over ten years,
05:13the adornment on the door handle remained Weston's left eye.
05:16Alden was the scariest.
05:18Oddly,
05:19every time someone weak was bullied,
05:21the bully was found to have committed suicide the next day.
05:25Susie,
05:25such a scumbag doesn't deserve to live in your world.
05:29Over time,
05:30a killing intent was sensed wherever I went.
05:33No one wanted to make friends with me.
05:37Talon was an exception.
05:39When the whole class isolated me,
05:41he helped me carry my books.
05:45You're not a freak.
05:46You have a unique charm.
05:49Once,
05:50an anatomical drawing fell out of my school bag.
05:52He calmly picked it up for me.
05:55Your brother draws comics like a professional.
05:58Back then,
05:58I had thought he was the only one who could see who I really was,
06:02despite the dark side of my family.
06:05What does your family do abroad?
06:07Clutching my clothes,
06:08I had replied evasively.
06:10Import and export.
06:12He didn't question it.
06:14It must be tiring.
06:16I'll be your rock from today on.
06:18You don't have to bear everything alone.
06:21That day,
06:22at sunset,
06:22he went down on one knee and proposed.
06:25He vowed earnestly that he'd protect me for the rest of my life.
06:28And I believed him.
06:30Despite my family's warning,
06:32I eloped with him and came to this city.
06:34Susie,
06:35men aren't trustworthy.
06:38Mom had said,
06:39It's okay if you don't want family property.
06:42But don't disgrace us.
06:44Dad had observed,
06:46Susie,
06:48if he doesn't behave,
06:50I'll make him.
06:52Alden had remarked,
06:55Those words had fallen on deaf ears, though.
06:57I had believed Talon was different.
07:00Sadly,
07:01when Doreen Pardo came along,
07:03he was attracted to her easily.
07:05Doreen was the main suspect of my car accident,
07:07but Talon refused to look into it.
07:10Looking at the horrified Weston,
07:12I nodded.
07:12Get me a doctor now,
07:14if you don't want to become fully blinded.
07:17I held on to my last breath.
07:20Finally,
07:20a doctor came and brought me back from death.
07:23I lay in the trauma room,
07:25listening as the heart monitor finally settled into a steady rhythm.
07:29The doctor had just hung a bag of plasma when the door flew open.
07:32Doreen stormed in.
07:34She was wearing a hospital gown,
07:36the bandages on her hand loose and unraveling.
07:39She didn't scream,
07:40but the room went dead silent.
07:42The doctors froze.
07:44Get out.
07:47Mrs. Pardy,
07:48she just got her pulse back.
07:50We have to transfuse.
07:52I said,
07:54get out.
07:56Doreen tilted her head,
07:58and two bodyguards immediately stepped forward.
08:00They hauled the doctors out of the room.
08:03Doreen walked to the side of the bed,
08:05stared down at my face,
08:06and smiled.
08:08Susanne,
08:10do you have any idea
08:11how long I've waited for this?
08:14My voice was a wreck.
08:18Get out.
08:20Get out?
08:21She raised her hand and slapped me across the face.
08:24The stitches on my face tore.
08:27I felt a warm trickle of blood at the corner of my mouth.
08:29Do you actually think Tal believes a word you say?
08:33He thinks you're insane!
08:36You set up the crash.
08:38I stared at her.
08:39It wasn't a question.
08:41She leaned in,
08:42her lips brushing my ear.
08:44That's right.
08:45I had the brake lines cut.
08:48The timing was perfect.
08:50My fingers twitched.
08:51I wanted to grab her by the hair,
08:53but I didn't have the strength.
08:56If he finds out,
08:59he'll kill you.
09:01Who?
09:02Talon?
09:03He's busy getting my birthday present ready.
09:06Besides,
09:07dead people can't talk.
09:10Weston stammered from the corner
09:12before finally finding his voice.
09:14Mrs. Pardit, stop!
09:16You can't kill Mrs. Sanwell!
09:18Doreen chuckled.
09:19Who gave you permission to speak?
09:21I tried to signal Weston to back off,
09:23but a sudden, blinding pain hit me.
09:26Does that hurt?
09:28Doreen pressed her finger
09:29right into the wound at my waist.
09:32It won't hurt for much longer.
09:34She slowly unbuttoned my hospital gown,
09:37her eyes cold and calculating.
09:39I ran a secret compatibility test.
09:42When you had your physical three months ago,
09:45Tal had all your records sent straight to me.
09:50Your kidney is a match.
09:52My eyes widened.
09:53So that was it.
09:55The crash.
09:56The drama.
09:57It was all for this.
09:59You're crazy!
10:01You think you can get away with stealing an organ?!
10:05Stealing?
10:06Please.
10:08Tal will have the paperwork ready.
10:10It'll say you died from your injuries
10:13and volunteered
10:14to donate.
10:16As for your family,
10:19they won't even find your body.
10:21The bodyguards wheeled me into the operating room.
10:24Doreen snapped on a pair of medical gloves
10:26and stood beside the doctor,
10:28watching me with a dead stare.
10:32She wasn't a nurse,
10:33but she was right.
10:35Talon would cover it all up for her.
10:37I felt the cold bite
10:38of a scalpel slicing into my skin.
10:40Above me,
10:41I heard her humming a tune,
10:43sounding cheerful and relaxed.
10:45Weston's mouth was taped shut.
10:47He could only make muffled,
10:49panicked sounds.
10:50The straps on the operating table
10:52dug into my wrists.
10:53But the sharp agony in my abdomen
10:55drowned out everything else.
10:57My phone buzzed frantically
10:58on a nearby table.
11:00Messages from the family group chat
11:02lit up the screen,
11:03one after another.
11:05Susie,
11:05we just got into the city.
11:07Susie, hang on.
11:08I'm deciding whether to drain
11:10one liter of her blood or two.
11:12But they were too late.
11:13I felt something being ripped from my body.
11:16My vision blurred.
11:17The room began to spin.
11:19Through the haze,
11:20I saw the doctor drop the bloody organ
11:22into a cooler.
11:24Doreen patted my cheek.
11:25Thanks for the gift.
11:27She turned to leave,
11:28but the operating room door
11:30was kicked open.
11:31Talon stood in the doorway,
11:33his face pale.
11:37Talon stood in the doorway,
11:39his gaze dropping to my blood-soaked waist.
11:44Susie, who did this?
11:47Who the hell did this?
11:50I let out a shaky breath of relief
11:52and pointed a trembling finger at Doreen.
11:58Tal.
12:01Doreen's eyes instantly went red.
12:08You're finally here.
12:10I was so scared.
12:13Susan tried to trick you again.
12:15She stumbled forward
12:16and collapsed into his arms.
12:21Suzanne crashed the car on purpose.
12:26She tried to kill me.
12:30Even just now,
12:32right on the operating table,
12:34she said she wanted me mutilated.
12:38I only came in to check on her injuries,
12:41but she snapped.
12:43She went crazy and tore at my stitches.
12:45She held up her bandaged hand.
12:48Small spots of blood stained the white gauze.
12:52In reality,
12:53I had barely brushed against it during our struggle.
12:57But Talon's expression shifted instantly.
13:00His concern for me evaporated.
13:03He wrapped his arms around Doreen,
13:05his eyes filled with distress.
13:09Don't be afraid.
13:10I've got you.
13:12He looked up at me,
13:13his face twisting into that familiar look of disgust.
13:16Suzanne,
13:18you are sick.
13:22I squeezed out my last ounce of strength,
13:24my voice rasping in my throat.
13:34Tal,
13:35she admitted.
13:36She ordered someone to cut the brake lines.
13:46She wants my kidneys.
13:50ENOUGH!
13:52Talon cut me off,
13:54pressing his hand down near the edge of my wound.
13:58Suzanne,
14:00how long are you going to keep lying?
14:04Doreen has renal chitis.
14:07She needs a transplant,
14:09and you just happen to be a match.
14:14You think that's a coincidence?
14:18You investigated her.
14:19You knew she needed a donor,
14:21so you rigged the medical checkup to blackmail me.
14:24Didn't you?
14:26I froze.
14:27I didn't have the words.
14:29Behind him,
14:30Doreen flashed a smile of pure victory.
14:36Tal.
14:37She whispered suddenly,
14:39tugging gently at his cuff.
14:43The doctor said,
14:45one kidney didn't might not be enough.
14:50My rejection reaction is severe.
14:56If I have two,
14:58this success rate is way higher.
15:02The room went dead silent.
15:07Talon didn't even look at me.
15:09He turned straight to the doctor.
15:12Will she die?
15:14Ignoring the fresh,
15:16searing pain from my surgery,
15:17I shouted on instinct.
15:21Talon,
15:22do you have any humanity at all?
15:26How could anyone survive without both kidneys?
15:30Use your head!
15:34Doreen suddenly pressed her chest against Talon.
15:40Tal,
15:41she won't die.
15:42The mortality rate is only 1%.
15:48Besides,
15:50giving me the kidneys
15:52could help you secure that billion-dollar contract.
15:58Talon stayed silent for a long time.
16:04Then do it.
16:10Susie, look.
16:13If the surgery succeeds,
16:15I'll take you to Iceland.
16:20We'll see the northern lights
16:22like you've always wanted.
16:25That should be enough.
16:28My blood ran cold
16:30as I watched the scalpel moving closer.
16:36I squeezed my eyes shut and screamed.
16:39Mom!
16:40The next second,
16:41the operating room door was kicked open.
16:45The frame shattered under the force,
16:47flying off its hinges.
16:51Three people stood in the doorway.
16:55My mother wore a perfectly tailored black suit.
16:59She held a knife gift set she'd bought at the airport,
17:01smiling with gentle elegance.
17:03My father was in a custom suit,
17:06toying with a scalpel.
17:11The bodyguards at his feet were already bloodied and beaten.
17:15My brother, Alden, wore a white lab coat and gold-rimmed glasses,
17:22looking refined and harmless.
17:27He pushed up his glasses,
17:29his dark gaze sweeping over me on the operating table.
17:34Finally, his eyes landed on Talon.
17:37His voice was soft,
17:38as if offering an invitation.
17:44Talon,
17:45sorry to intrude,
17:48but I have to ask,
17:50how would you like to die?
17:52The silence in the room was absolute.
17:59Doreen was the first to break under the pressure.
18:01Doreen was the first to break under the pressure.
18:08Tal!
18:09Get these people!
18:11Out of here!
18:12But no one listened to her.
18:17My father even made a throat-slitting gesture in her direction.
18:29Doreen's shrill scream pierced the air.
18:31She hid behind Talon,
18:32shaking.
18:34Who are you people?
18:35Security!
18:36Where is security?
18:39Talon's face turned pale.
18:43He stared at the distinct footprint on the broken door frame.
18:48Then at the unconscious bodyguards on the floor.
18:52His throat worked,
18:54but no sound came out.
18:56Alden adjusted his glasses again and smiled politely.
19:02Security?
19:04Talon?
19:06Does she mean those dozen or so useless men downstairs?
19:09He stepped aside, revealing the hallway.
19:13Seven or eight bodyguards in black lace sprawled across the floor,
19:16motionless.
19:21Mom crouched nearby,
19:23slowly wiping blood from her hands before waving at me.
19:29Susie, honey,
19:30I just took out the trash.
19:32Didn't scare you, didn't I?
19:36Mom usually handled the logistics in our family.
19:42Suzanne.
19:43Talon finally found his voice.
19:46Who are they?
19:48The heavy weight in my chest vanished.
19:51I told you,
19:52my family,
19:54they do business overseas.
19:56He yelled.
19:57You're still lying to me?
19:59What kind of business involves killing people?
20:02What is this?
20:05Mom walked in,
20:06the sound of her heels crisp against the floor tiles.
20:09She placed the knife box on the operating table
20:12and elegantly untied the ribbon.
20:15Susie didn't tell you.
20:18Then there's no need for you to know.
20:21She pulled out a surgical blade
20:22and gestured toward Talon.
20:25Dad walked over to Doreen,
20:27gripping her chin to inspect her
20:28like a product on a shelf.
20:31Kidney pain?
20:33This cut on my daughter's waist?
20:36Did you do this?
20:38Doreen was too terrified to cry.
20:41It wasn't me!
20:42Suzanne donated voluntarily!
20:48Dad.
20:51Alden walked over,
20:52pulling a neatly folded paper
20:54from his lab coat pocket.
20:58I checked.
21:00She tampered with her own medical report
21:02three months ago.
21:07She doesn't have renal coric.
21:10She just,
21:10we had a breath-dossed for the birthday.
21:13He paused,
21:14his eyes narrowing behind the lenses.
21:19After all,
21:20she's an addict.
21:21She overdosed.
21:23Her own kidneys are completely rotted.
21:26Talon whipped his head around
21:27to look at Doreen.
21:30You do drugs?
21:32Tal,
21:33don't listen to him!
21:35Doreen shrieked.
21:38They're working together!
21:40They want to hurt me!
21:43Hurt you?
21:45Alden smiled,
21:46a gentle,
21:47warm expression
21:48that made my blood run cold.
21:51Susie,
21:52tell her.
21:53If I wanted to kill someone,
21:55what would I do?
21:56I lay on the table,
21:57my voice muffled by the oxygen mask.
22:00You wouldn't talk.
22:04You'd just do it.
22:05As soon as the words left my mouth,
22:07the scalpel in Dad's hand came down.
22:13He didn't cut Doreen's face.
22:14He sliced precisely through the buttons
22:16of her hospital gown.
22:19The fabric fell open,
22:21revealing her waist,
22:22smooth,
22:23unblemished.
22:25completely free of any
22:26surgical scars.
22:28Your kidney area is intact,
22:31Dad said flatly.
22:33Most people with kidney pain
22:35have needle marks
22:36from treatments.
22:37This lady's skin
22:39is perfectly smooth.
22:44Doreen collapsed
22:45to the floor in a heap.
22:47Talon finally reacted,
22:49rushing forward to shield her,
22:51but Alden caught his wrist.
22:54Alden looked frail,
22:55but his grip was incredibly strong.
22:59Smiling,
22:59he peeled Talon's hand off Doreen,
23:01finger by finger.
23:04Alden's voice was as gentle
23:06as if he were comforting a child.
23:08Talon,
23:10back then,
23:11Susie cut ties with her family for you.
23:15She said,
23:18you were the only person
23:20in the world
23:21who didn't care
23:22about her background.
23:26He glanced at me
23:27lying on the table.
23:30A flicker of pain
23:31crossed his eyes
23:32before turning into
23:32something much darker.
23:36But she's dying,
23:38and what are you doing?
23:41Alden smiled.
23:45You're helping another woman
23:46harvest her organs.
23:47You're killing her.
23:51Talon stammered,
23:52incoherent.
23:54No, I didn't know.
23:55Besides,
23:55it's just one kidney.
23:56How could she die?
23:57Alden moved faster
23:58than I could track.
24:02He slammed Talon
24:03onto the adjacent operating table
24:04and strapped him down.
24:09In that case,
24:10let's test if you can survive
24:11with just one kidney,
24:13shall we?
24:16We secured the hospital fast.
24:22I was rescued just in time
24:23to get my kidney put back
24:24where it belonged.
24:28Now,
24:29the tables had turned.
24:30It was Talon lying
24:31on the operating table.
24:33He was screaming
24:34his head off.
24:35You can't do this!
24:37I'm the chairman
24:37of the Sandburn Group!
24:44If you dare cut me open,
24:46I will destroy
24:47the entire Nassie family!
24:50Dad chuckled,
24:51idly turning a smooth stone
24:53over in his hand.
24:57The Sandburn Group?
24:59With someone like you
25:01running it,
25:01there's no need
25:02for that company
25:02to exist anymore.
25:04Talon's phone
25:05started buzzing
25:05on the side table.
25:06I picked it up
25:07and hit the speaker.
25:09Mr. Sandburn,
25:10it's bad!
25:11Your two top executives
25:12just committed suicide!
25:13One jumped into the ocean,
25:14the other off a building!
25:16They left behind
25:18every scrap of evidence
25:19regarding our tax evasion!
25:20For the first time,
25:21Talon looked
25:22genuinely terrified.
25:25You did this?!
25:26How is that even possible?!
25:32Dad spat on the floor.
25:35It's a shame you only had
25:37two loyal dogs
25:38after all these years.
25:40I was expecting
25:41more of a challenge.
25:43Alden couldn't wait
25:43any longer.
25:44His eyes were gleaming.
25:47Pity.
25:48He's such a handsome guy.
25:49But hey,
25:50this is my first time
25:51removing a CEO's kidney.
25:58The operating room
25:59doors slid shut.
26:00Alden didn't use anesthesia.
26:03Soon,
26:04agonizing screams
26:05rang out from inside.
26:09Mom and I stood over
26:10Doreen looking down at her.
26:12Her earlier arrogance
26:13had evaporated.
26:16The sharp smell of urine
26:18drifted up
26:18from where she sat.
26:20She'd wet herself in fear.
26:22Mom frowned in disgust
26:24and ordered someone
26:24to drag her away.
26:30Outside the operating room,
26:31the screaming
26:32gradually faded
26:33into silence.
26:35Alden pushed the door open
26:37and walked out,
26:37his white coat
26:38splattered with blood.
26:41He slowly peeled off
26:42his gloves
26:42and tossed them
26:43into the bin.
26:48Susie,
26:49I took out
26:50the left one.
26:51The quality
26:52is actually pretty good.
26:54He adjusted his glasses,
26:56smiling politely.
26:59I noticed a minor issue
27:00with his right kidney, too.
27:02Should I take that one
27:03while I'm at it?
27:05My face was pale,
27:06but my gaze held steady.
27:09Keep it for now.
27:10It's useful.
27:12Mom was still wiping down
27:13her case of knives,
27:14not even bothering
27:15to look up.
27:19Whatever Susie says.
27:22He got off easy,
27:24if you ask me.
27:27I originally wanted
27:28to turn him into a specimen
27:30as a discharge gift for you.
27:33I smiled,
27:34actually touched.
27:36Mom,
27:37that would scare
27:37the medical staff.
27:41True.
27:43Out Mom sighed
27:43with regret,
27:44then turned her attention
27:45to Aunt Doreen,
27:46who had just been
27:47dragged back in.
27:49So,
27:51how do you plan
27:52to handle this young lady?
27:54Doreen scrambled backward,
27:56but Ad stepped on the hem
27:57of her dress
27:58to stop her.
28:03Don't be in such a rush.
28:07Didn't you say
28:08your kidney hurt?
28:10Want me to check it for you?
28:13I have a medical license,
28:15and I specialize
28:16in vivisepti.
28:18No, please.
28:18At Doreen sobbed,
28:20gasping for air.
28:21I was wrong.
28:22I was really wrong.
28:23Talon made me do it.
28:26He said if I killed Suzanne,
28:28he'd marry me
28:29and give me 30%
28:30of the Sandburn Group's shares.
28:32I closed my eyes.
28:34Whatever affection
28:35I had left for him
28:36vanished right then.
28:37It wasn't just
28:38a sudden change of heart.
28:39This had been the plan
28:41for a long time.
28:43Three days later,
28:44a massive scandal
28:45hit the Sandburn Group.
28:47Chairman Talon
28:48was reportedly
28:49in critical condition
28:50due to kidney failure
28:51caused by a drug overdose.
28:54His assistant, Doreen,
28:55was in police custody
28:57for fraud
28:57and attempted murder.
29:01Of course,
29:02that was just
29:03the official story.
29:04In reality,
29:06At Talon
29:07had been secretly moved
29:08to a private
29:09Nance family estate.
29:11He lay in a hospital bed,
29:14deathly pale,
29:15the wound
29:16at his waist throbbing.
29:18Alden had thoughtfully
29:20provided the best
29:21medical equipment.
29:22Though the doctors
29:23and nurses
29:24were all
29:24Nance family operatives,
29:26I healed quickly.
29:27The Nance family genes
29:29gave me exceptional
29:30recuperative abilities.
29:31By the fifth day,
29:32I was walking normally.
29:37When At Talon saw me,
29:39he looked hopeful
29:40for a split second
29:41before his expression fell.
29:43Susie,
29:44I'm sorry.
29:45I really didn't know.
29:47I didn't know
29:48Doreen was lying to me.
29:49I sat in the chair
29:50by his bed,
29:51watching him in silence.
29:54He struggled to reach out,
29:56trying to grab the hem
29:57of my shirt.
29:59Do you remember?
30:00Junior year,
30:01you had that high fever.
30:02I carried you on my back
30:03all the way to the hospital.
30:04You said I was the only one for you.
30:06I didn't say anything.
30:08In our first date,
30:10you were afraid of the dark.
30:13So I held your hand
30:14and walked with you all night.
30:15You said as long as I was there,
30:19you weren't afraid of anything.
30:22Tears rolled down his face.
30:25Susie, I was wrong.
30:26Doreen tricked me.
30:28I let greed cloud my judgment.
30:31But I really do love you.
30:33Those moments were real.
30:37I looked down
30:39so he couldn't see
30:39the look in my eyes.
30:43His tune had certainly changed.
30:46A calculated expression
30:48crossed my face
30:49and I spoke softly.
30:51Tal,
30:52I forgive you.
30:54He jerked his head up,
30:55looking shocked
30:56and overhopped it.
31:03Really?
31:04Yes.
31:05But you have to help me
31:07with performance.
31:08Otherwise,
31:09my family won't accept you.
31:10When I told Mom
31:11I planned to forgive Talon,
31:13she nearly drove the knife
31:14she'd been sharpening
31:15straight into my headboard.
31:20Suzanne,
31:21have you lost your mind?
31:26Did you forget
31:27he nearly killed you?
31:29Mom,
31:30I haven't forgotten,
31:31but he's still useful.
31:36Under my devoted care,
31:38At Talon started to recover.
31:41I visited him every day,
31:43bringing up old memories.
31:47I cooked his meals personally,
31:50always making sure
31:51to lace them
31:52with a truth serum.
31:54Alden had developed it
31:55for his more twisted experiments.
31:58Talon was deeply moved.
32:00He swore he'd spend
32:02the rest of his life
32:02making it up to me.
32:05Susie,
32:07when I'm better,
32:08let's go to Iceland.
32:10We'll see the northern lights.
32:14He gripped my hand tightly.
32:19I don't want anything else.
32:21I just want to be with you.
32:24I smiled and nodded.
32:26Inside,
32:27I felt nothing
32:28but Confank's contempt.
32:30Meanwhile,
32:31At Alden was digging
32:32into Darby's background.
32:38Before long,
32:39a detailed report
32:40landed on my desk.
32:42It turned out
32:43the mastermind behind Dorney
32:45was someone we all knew.
32:47She'd been holding
32:48secret meetings
32:49with my uncle,
32:50Langston Nancy.
32:56The man who had always
32:57been at war
32:58with my family.
33:01Looks like some
33:02bottom feeders
33:02are trying to use you
33:03to take out
33:04the Nance family.
33:05Dad turned a small,
33:07smooth stone
33:08over in his hands,
33:09his eyes wide
33:10with excitement.
33:12Susie,
33:13how do you want
33:14to play this?
33:16I glanced at my phone.
33:17A message from Talon
33:19had just popped up.
33:19Susie,
33:21I miss you so much.
33:22Can I see you tonight?
33:23At the Ivy Club.
33:25The Ivy Club
33:26was a private lounge
33:27where we used to go on dates.
33:31Sure,
33:31I'll wait for you.
33:35Get ready to close the net.
33:37That night,
33:39I dressed with precision.
33:40I wore the white dress
33:42Talon liked best.
33:44I applied light makeup
33:45to look gentle,
33:47harmless.
33:49Mom looked at me,
33:51her expression complex.
33:53Susie,
33:54you're acting more
33:55and more like me.
33:59Not acting.
34:00I am a Nancy,
34:02down to the bone.
34:05At the club,
34:08At Talon
34:08was already waiting.
34:13He looked better,
34:15though his face
34:16was still pale.
34:21Susie.
34:24Tal,
34:25I missed you.
34:27Me too.
34:34Susie,
34:35Doreen
34:36has been asking
34:37to see me
34:37from the police station.
34:38She says she knows
34:39she was wrong
34:40and wants to confess everything.
34:42Oh?
34:43Are you planning to go?
34:45I want to hear
34:46what she has to say.
34:48If you don't agree,
34:51I won't go.
34:52Go ahead.
34:53It might be good
34:54to hear her out.
34:55Maybe you'll uncover
34:56more of the truth.
35:00Talon didn't know
35:02that every move
35:02he made
35:03was under surveillance.
35:04The drug in his system
35:06didn't just make him
35:07pliable to the truth.
35:08It allowed us
35:09to track
35:10his physical location.
35:12The second day,
35:13he went to the police station.
35:15The third day,
35:16he received a note
35:18Outdoreen had smuggled out.
35:21On the fourth day,
35:22he booked
35:23the presidential suite
35:24at a suburban
35:25five-star hotel.
35:32Alden dropped
35:33a keycard
35:34on my desk.
35:35Susie,
35:36do you really
35:37want to go in person?
35:39I can just splash
35:40them all over
35:40tomorrow's headlines.
35:42No need to trouble yourself.
35:44I wouldn't miss
35:45a show this good.
35:47Inside the hotel room,
35:49at Talon
35:50and at Yor,
35:51Doreen
35:51were clinging
35:52to each other.
35:55Tal,
35:56I'm scared.
35:57The Nancy family
35:58won't let us go.
35:59I've already
36:00regained
36:00Suzanne's trust.
36:02She said,
36:03as long as I behave,
36:04the Nancy family
36:05will leave me alone.
36:07Really?
36:08Then our plan
36:09can still work!
36:10We proceed as usual.
36:12Suzanne is an idiot.
36:13She actually thinks
36:14I'm afraid of her.
36:16Once Langston
36:17is ready,
36:18we'll strike
36:19from the inside.
36:20The entire
36:21Nance estate
36:22will be ours.
36:25What about her family?
36:29Kill them all.
36:32Especially her sick brother.
36:35I'm going to preserve
36:36his corpse
36:37and hang it
36:39in my office.
36:40And her murderer
36:41of a mother.
36:43I want to send her
36:44to prison
36:45and let her rot.
36:48As for Suzanne,
36:50keep her alive.
36:52I want her to watch
36:53the Nancy family fall.
36:55Then I'll lock her up
36:56and keep her as a pet
36:57for the rest of her life.
36:58When the door
36:59pushed open,
37:00they were kissing
37:01passionately.
37:05I walked in,
37:07followed closely
37:08by Dad,
37:08Mom,
37:09and Alden.
37:15Go on.
37:17Why stop?
37:18Susie?
37:20Why are you all here?
37:23If I didn't come,
37:26how would I hear
37:27such a brilliant plan?
37:31Talon,
37:32who was it you said
37:33you wanted to turn
37:34into a specimen?
37:38Talon,
37:38I didn't realize
37:40you were so interested
37:41in my field of study.
37:45Susie,
37:45let me explain.
37:47Doreen forced me.
37:48She seduced me.
37:49She threatened me.
37:50Talon,
37:51you...
37:51Shut up!
37:53It's all your fault,
37:54you bitch!
37:55You made me betray Susie!
37:59What a performance,
38:01turning on each other
38:02so quickly.
38:05You know,
38:06I almost believed you.
38:07I almost believed
38:09those memories you brought up
38:10and those fake tears.
38:13Susie.
38:15It's a pity.
38:18You shouldn't have taken
38:19my kidney
38:20and you definitely
38:22shouldn't have tried
38:23to hurt my family.
38:25That night,
38:26the presidil suite
38:27turned into a slaughterhouse.
38:29Mom elegantly opened
38:30the gift box of knives
38:31she'd brought
38:32and selected
38:33the sharpest one.
38:35Susie,
38:36remember when I taught you anatomy?
38:38Dad smiled at
38:40Aunt Doreen.
38:41This young lady
38:42has such fine skin.
38:44It would make
38:45excellent leather.
38:48Alden strapped Talon
38:50onto a portable
38:50surgical table.
38:52Talon,
38:52I brought my
38:53newest equipment.
38:55I can harvest
38:56your organs
38:57while keeping
38:57your vitals stable.
38:59You'll be able
39:00to watch yourself
39:01be hollowed out.
39:02I walked to the
39:03floor-to-ceiling window
39:04and looked down
39:04at the city lights.
39:06Do it.
39:08But keep them breathing.
39:09I want them alive
39:10to see the ending.
39:18The screaming
39:19lasted all night.
39:23The next day,
39:24the news broke.
39:25Langston Nace,
39:27major shareholder
39:28of the Nacy Group,
39:29was arrested
39:29for organ trafficking
39:31and murder.
39:32Talon,
39:33CEO of the
39:34Sanburn Group,
39:35announced his
39:36permanent retirement
39:37due to severe
39:38kidney failure.
39:39He transferred
39:40all assets
39:41to his wife,
39:43me.
39:43As for Aunt Doreen,
39:45she lost her mind.
39:46She was committed
39:47to a psychiatric hospital.
39:49The Nather family
39:50are monsters.
39:51The Nather family
39:52are monsters.
39:54Three months later,
39:55I sat in the sunroom
39:57of the Nancy Manor,
39:58drinking afternoon tea.
40:01Susie,
40:02Talon is on his
40:03last breath.
40:04Should we keep going?
40:06Pull the plug.
40:08End it.
40:09And Doreen?
40:11Let her stay
40:12in the asylum.
40:13The doctors there
40:14are all Mom's
40:15former students.
40:16Susie,
40:17a new shipment
40:18just came in.
40:19Do you want
40:19to take a look?
40:20You guys handle
40:21that business.
40:24What are your plans now?
40:28I looked at the sunlight
40:30outside,
40:31remembering Talon's
40:32mention of the aurora.
40:34I want to go to Iceland.
40:36But not with Talon.
40:38He's gone.
40:40With whom?
40:42With the people
40:43who actually love me.
40:45With you.
40:48I'm sorry for the past.
40:50For losing sight
40:51of the people
40:52who mattered
40:53because of people
40:53who didn't.
40:57We'd better hurry.
40:58Business is booming
40:59over there.
41:00We need a manager
41:00on the ground.
41:02All right.
41:03Then let's take
41:04the Nancy family business
41:05to Iceland.
41:06Outside the door,
41:08bodyguards stood
41:09in respectful rows.
41:14Inside,
41:15the room was filled
41:16with the laughter
41:17of a family reunited.
41:21I lay back
41:22in the rocking chair.
41:23Mom covered me
41:24with a blanket,
41:25my brother handed me coffee,
41:27and Dad read
41:27the paper nearby.
41:33This was the happiness
41:34I wanted.
41:35Not the vanity
41:36of being a socialite,
41:37nor the status
41:38of a CEO's wife.
41:40It was knowing
41:41matter who I was
41:42or what I did,
41:43my family stood by me.
41:45Even if the whole world
41:46betrayed me,
41:47they wouldn't.
41:49Because like me,
41:51they were Nance.
41:53We fought,
41:54we killed,
41:56but we depended
41:57on each other
41:58for life.
42:00And the man
42:01who once said
42:01he'd protect me forever
42:03was now nothing
42:04more than dust.
42:06A joke
42:07to this city.
42:09I closed my eyes,
42:11a smile on my lips.
42:14Talon,
42:14you lost.
42:16You lost because
42:17you didn't understand
42:18this family.
42:19Because you betrayed me
42:21and because of
42:22your own greed.
42:23And I,
42:24at Suzanne,
42:25the only sane person
42:27in the Nancy family,
42:28had finally returned
42:30to where I belonged.
42:32In that house
42:33full of blood and sin,
42:34I could be my true self.
42:37The sun felt good.
42:39The future would be good,
42:41too,
42:41because the Nancy family
42:43would always thrive.
42:45The future of Nancy
