Short filmTranscript
00:00:00On the eve of my third wedding anniversary, I watched my husband, Carly Gibson, the CEO of Gibson Group,
00:00:06the man I had married three years ago, spend $300 million at an auction on a pair of sapphire earrings.
00:00:12To the one I've always owed, my true love.
00:00:15Tears streamed down my face.
00:00:20Finally, he had come around.
00:00:22Those three years hadn't been a waste.
00:00:27The next day, I prepared a feast and waited for him.
00:00:32Carly came home and glanced at the table.
00:00:36Quite a feast tonight. It's a special day or something?
00:00:39You forgot?
00:00:43Evelina, what was I supposed to remember?
00:00:47The starry night earrings you bought at auction.
00:00:51Those are for Esma. She finally agreed to come back to me.
00:00:55My heart clenched as if a knife had pierced it.
00:00:57Esme Barton, Carly's first love, the woman who caused his accident and abandoned him when he went blind.
00:01:03The one he owed was her.
00:01:04Carly, have you forgotten whose fault it was that you crashed and lost your sight?
00:01:08You know nothing. Esme wasn't to blame. She's the one who performed my eye surgery.
00:01:12After he lost his sight, I performed those surgeries.
00:01:15Demi Gibson, Carly's grandmother, the woman who raised me, had begged me and I agreed.
00:01:19How did Esme end up taking credit for it?
00:01:24I'm exhausted.
00:01:26Let's end this marriage.
00:01:29We agreed on three years.
00:01:31And I've endured you long enough.
00:01:33Endured me for three years?
00:01:35How dare he say that?
00:01:38It's done.
00:01:40But Carly, you'd better not regret this.
00:01:43I turned and walked away without looking back.
00:01:46But I knew.
00:01:47One day, this man would crawl back to me on his knees.
00:01:53The divorced settlement gave me a row-down apartment on the suburbs.
00:01:57A beat-up car.
00:01:58And a mere three million.
00:02:05He spent three hundred million on earrings for Esme, but gave me, the woman who had saved his sight, only
00:02:11three million.
00:02:12What a brilliant scheme.
00:02:16Evelina, that car belongs to the Gibson family.
00:02:18You can't take it.
00:02:20Margie Gibson, Carly's sister, the most arrogant and spoiled young lady of the Gibson family.
00:02:25I had endured her insults for three years.
00:02:27I bought that car with my own money.
00:02:30You're just as shameless as your brother.
00:02:35Evelina, give Marga the car.
00:02:37No.
00:02:37I threw my old suitcase into the car, followed by a few lit firecrackers.
00:02:42I didn't want the car.
00:02:44Take it.
00:02:45The car exploded.
00:02:47Flames lit up the sky.
00:02:49Everything I had used in the Gibson household stayed there.
00:02:55Well, if it isn't Evelina herself.
00:02:57Christina Anderson, my best friend, the heiress of the Anderson family, a powerhouse in the entertainment industry.
00:03:03The moment I saw her, I finally felt truly alive again.
00:03:18Finally done with that knife.
00:03:20That's going good.
00:03:21At the bar, Christina insisted I pick out some fresh-faced actors she signed.
00:03:25I was teasy.
00:03:28A man walked past me in the hallway.
00:03:31Chiseled features, striking good looks.
00:03:35An air of cool elegance.
00:03:38Finally found you.
00:03:40Here!
00:03:40All ten roses are yours!
00:03:45Are you certain about this?
00:03:47Leo pulled me into his arms and stared deep into my eyes, as if trying to drag me into an
00:03:51abyss.
00:03:52This man was Leo Russell, the fifth son of the Russell family.
00:03:55Heir to a top-tier dynasty of a multinational conglomerate.
00:04:00The most powerful man in Iria.
00:04:03I didn't remember what happened with Leo.
00:04:05Christina took me home.
00:04:07The moment I stepped outside, Margot's thugs came for me.
00:04:12Didn't expect her to be hotter than her picture.
00:04:14Miss Gibson wants you gone permanently, but we're not that heartless.
00:04:18Margot wanted me dead?
00:04:19After three years of faithful service to her family?
00:04:23There were two other girls tied up in the rundown factory.
00:04:26One of them was blind, barely 20 years old.
00:04:30I want to go home.
00:04:33Don't be afraid.
00:04:35I'll get us out of here.
00:04:46I took down every last thug.
00:04:49My arm took a hit.
00:04:51My back was burning.
00:04:53Blood seeped from the wound, but I couldn't fall.
00:04:56Those two girls were counting on me.
00:05:04Don't be afraid, Sylvia.
00:05:06I'm sorry I'm late.
00:05:09Uncle, why did you take so long?
00:05:13The blind girl called him Uncle, Sylvia Russell.
00:05:17The Russell family heiress.
00:05:19The girl I had saved was her?
00:05:23Looking at his profile, remembered last night, and blushed deeply.
00:05:30Evelina, do you have a crush on my uncle?
00:05:35The man I gave a rose to was the legendary Leo Russell.
00:05:40I was doomed.
00:05:42Completely doomed.
00:05:47I shook my head and gave an awkward smile.
00:05:50Then I noticed Sylvia's eyes and a plan started forming in my mind.
00:05:55I can cure Sylvia's eyes.
00:05:59Really, Evelina?
00:06:00Name your price.
00:06:02Anything you want, I'll give it to you.
00:06:04I had been waiting for Leo to say that.
00:06:07There was so much I wanted to do, and to get revenge on Carrie and Esme, I needed his power.
00:06:13I want Esme to apologize to me.
00:06:15Carrie showed up at the hospital to harass me.
00:06:18This man wouldn't let me go even after divorce.
00:06:21Evelina, what are you wearing?
00:06:24Don't think changing your outfit will make me notice you.
00:06:29Evelina is mine.
00:06:30You're not even divorced yet!
00:06:32The papers are signed even if it isn't official yet.
00:06:35You cheated on me.
00:06:37What right do you have to control me?
00:06:39The way he stood in front of me, shielding me from Carrie, my heart skipped a beat.
00:06:44His gaze was nothing like Carrie's.
00:06:47It was Arnest, burning, as if he was trying to see right through me.
00:06:57Leo, the engagement agreement between our families.
00:07:00Aurora Marsh, the adopted daughter of the Marsh family, who claimed to be Leo's fiancé.
00:07:05Her gaze was like a knife dipped in poison.
00:07:08That was just a joke between our families.
00:07:10I choose who I marry, not you.
00:07:14Aurora despised me.
00:07:15She was probably plotting something behind my back.
00:07:19But I wasn't afraid of her.
00:07:21Sylvia's surgery was scheduled for three days later.
00:07:23Esme had taken on the operation as the miracle surgeon, but she didn't know how to do it.
00:07:27So she had to secretly beg one person for help.
00:07:29Please, you have to come.
00:07:30I have the money ready, 10 million.
00:07:32If the surgery succeeds, the Russells will owe me.
00:07:34And the Gibsons can finally get close to Mr. Russell.
00:07:36I can't miss this chance.
00:07:37On the other end of the line, I answered Esme's call with a voice changer.
00:07:41The miracle surgeon, that was me.
00:07:43But Esme had no idea.
00:07:45On the day of the surgery, the hospital was packed.
00:07:48The Gibsons were there.
00:07:50The Russells were there.
00:07:51Esme walked in wearing an expensive gown and high heels, head held high.
00:07:55My future daughter-in-law is the miracle surgeon.
00:07:58Ms. Russell's eyes are in good hands.
00:08:00The Gibson family is finally going to make an impression on Mr. Russell.
00:08:03Don't worry, Allura.
00:08:04I'll give Ms. Russell's surgery my all.
00:08:06She acted so convincingly.
00:08:08The Gibsons surrounded her like she was the star.
00:08:12The miracle surgeon they were fawning over, worshipping, trying to cling to was nothing but a fraud.
00:08:18And me, the real miracle surgeon, they treated like air.
00:08:22Carrie walked past me without even a glance.
00:08:25Evelina, you're here?
00:08:26You really are my shadow, following me everywhere.
00:08:29Mr. Gibson, this is a restricted area.
00:08:32Please wait outside and stay quiet.
00:08:35Ian Leo's assistant currently playing the role of Leo outside.
00:08:38The real Leo was inside the oar with Sylvia.
00:08:41The Gibsons, intimidated by Leo's power, could only smile awkwardly and step aside.
00:08:51Esme glanced at me, a smirk on her lips.
00:08:54She didn't know that the person she begged, feared, and couldn't do the surgery without,
00:08:59was the housewife she was walking all over.
00:09:03The show was about to begin.
00:09:06Outside the O.R., Esme kept dialing the miracle surgeon's number.
00:09:15Where are you?
00:09:20My phone buzzed.
00:09:22I put down my instruments and replied with the voice changer.
00:09:26I'm already in the O.R.
00:09:28You'll see when you come in.
00:09:35Esme pushed the door open and looked around, scanning every masked face.
00:09:41Where's the surgeon?
00:09:42Where's the one I paid?
00:09:45Are you looking for the real miracle surgeon, Ms. Barton?
00:09:49Dorothea, my surgical assistant.
00:09:51She had assisted me in Carrie's four surgeries.
00:09:55She knew everything.
00:09:56What's with your attitude?
00:09:58Tell her to come out.
00:09:59I'll pay her whatever she wants.
00:10:00She's been standing at the operating table for a while now.
00:10:03Ms. Barton, you don't even know who she is, yet you dare impersonate her?
00:10:09You're lying.
00:10:10Fine.
00:10:11I'll do it myself.
00:10:13The cameras only film from behind.
00:10:15No one will know.
00:10:16She picked up the scalpel, her hands trembling.
00:10:18But she didn't know.
00:10:20The O.R. cameras were recording everything.
00:10:23And the anthropology experts Leo had invited were watching from the next room.
00:10:28Esme thought she could fake it.
00:10:30But every mistake she made would be magnified a hundred times.
00:10:38And I was right behind her.
00:10:41Watching her dig her own grave.
00:10:53The moment Esme's scalpel touched Sylvia's eyelid, she froze.
00:10:57She didn't know what to do next.
00:10:59You're holding the scalpel wrong.
00:11:00Are you sure you want to continue?
00:11:02What do you, a housewife, know about surgery?
00:11:06Get away!
00:11:07Get away!
00:11:13She grabbed the scalpel and charged at me.
00:11:16She didn't know.
00:11:17I had been waiting for this moment.
00:11:20I'll kill you first!
00:11:21Then blame you for sabotaging the surgery!
00:11:24No one will suspect me!
00:11:27My first instinct was to dodge.
00:11:30But Sylvia was under anesthesia right behind me.
00:11:34I couldn't move.
00:11:37Watch out!
00:11:45His gaze was ice cold.
00:11:47But when he looked at me, there was something else.
00:11:50Curiosity?
00:11:51Are you alright?
00:11:53I'm fine.
00:11:54Sylvia is what matters.
00:11:57You're more extraordinary than I thought.
00:11:59The way he looked at me was different from how he looked at Carolee.
00:12:03At Esme, not contempt, not suspicion, but scrutiny.
00:12:06This man was starting to suspect.
00:12:08But he chose to help me, not expose me.
00:12:12Esme was dragged away.
00:12:14Carrie burst in and saw me standing at the operating table.
00:12:19Evelina, what are you doing here?
00:12:21Where Esme?
00:12:22Mr. Gibson, haven't you figured it out yet?
00:12:24Your fiancé ran away.
00:12:26The person performing the surgery right now is Dr. Marsh.
00:12:30Evelina?
00:12:31She never even went to medical school.
00:12:34She can perform surgery?
00:12:36Don't make me laugh.
00:12:37He laughed loudly.
00:12:38When Esme had threatened me outside, he laughed.
00:12:41When the Gibsons belittled me, he laughed.
00:12:45He had no idea that his own sight had been saved by me through four surgeries.
00:12:51Carrie, get out.
00:12:53Don't waste my time saving a life.
00:12:59What's with your attitude?
00:13:03Who do you think you are?
00:13:05Mr. Gibson, she is the lead surgeon I invited.
00:13:10Please leave.
00:13:11Ian stepped forward again, still pretending to be Leo.
00:13:15Carrie had no choice but to back away, humiliated.
00:13:19Leo cleared the room for me.
00:13:20He didn't ask if I was capable.
00:13:22He just believed I was.
00:13:24I'm trusting Sylvia to you.
00:13:26Leave everything else to me.
00:13:27In that moment, something shifted inside me.
00:13:30But I didn't have time to think about it.
00:13:33Four and a half hours.
00:13:34I was so focused I lost track of time.
00:13:48The moment Sylvia regained her sight, my eyes welled up with tears.
00:13:52Not from exhaustion, because it was all worth it.
00:13:56Outside the OR, the experts were in an uproar.
00:13:59A dozen top ophthalmologists crowded around the monitors, their eyes nearly popping out.
00:14:04My god, the technique, the precision.
00:14:06This is the real miracle surgeon.
00:14:08The fraud earlier couldn't even hold a scalpel steady.
00:14:11This one is the real deal.
00:14:12Who is she?
00:14:14Evelina, you performed the surgery?
00:14:17How is that possible?
00:14:19You and Esme?
00:14:21I have nothing to do with Esme.
00:14:23But you, you can't even tell who saved your sight.
00:14:28What do you mean?
00:14:30Are you saying, my eyes, it was you?
00:14:35Carrie's face went pale.
00:14:37He started to remember, to suspect.
00:14:40But I wasn't going to tell him then.
00:14:44Evelina needs to rest.
00:14:46Please leave.
00:14:48You two, what are you to each other?
00:14:52She's my woman.
00:14:54And soon, she will be officially.
00:14:57He didn't ask for my permission.
00:15:01This man was playing the long game.
00:15:03And surprisingly, I didn't hate it.
00:15:12Three days after the surgery, Esme was locked in an empty hospital room.
00:15:21The Russell family's guards watched her around the clock.
00:15:29Let me out!
00:15:30Do you know who I am?
00:15:32I'm the miracle surgeon!
00:15:34I saved Miss Lee!
00:15:36Aurora arrived.
00:15:38There was a smile on her face,
00:15:40but no warmth in her eyes.
00:15:47Save your breath, Esme.
00:15:48You might fool others, but not me.
00:15:52Want to get out?
00:15:54I can help you.
00:15:57But you have to do something for me first.
00:16:01What?
00:16:01Very simple.
00:16:04I want you to insist that Evelina is the fraud.
00:16:08She stole your surgical plan and tricked everyone.
00:16:20I didn't know what they talked about.
00:16:23But I knew.
00:16:25Aurora wouldn't stop targeting me.
00:16:28That night, Leo came to find me.
00:16:36Evelina, no matter what happens, I'm on your side.
00:16:39Even if the whole world thinks I'm a fraud?
00:16:42Even if the whole world thinks you're a fraud.
00:16:46Because I know you're not.
00:16:51He didn't ask if I was the miracle surgeon.
00:16:54He just said,
00:16:55he believed me.
00:16:58In that moment,
00:17:00I almost told him the truth myself.
00:17:03But not yet.
00:17:06Esme still owed Professor Mitchell an apology.
00:17:10One week later,
00:17:10at the southern outskirts of Iria,
00:17:13in front of Professor Mitchell's grave,
00:17:15Esme was brought there to apologize publicly.
00:17:18I won't apologize.
00:17:20Evelina is the fake.
00:17:21She stole my surgical plan.
00:17:23She stole my identity.
00:17:25Right?
00:17:25That bitch Evelina never even went to university.
00:17:28How could she be the miracle surgeon?
00:17:33Yes.
00:17:35Just like that.
00:17:37Crush her.
00:17:38Aurora thought she was winning.
00:17:40The Gibsons thought they were on the side of justice.
00:17:44Esme thought she could turn this around.
00:17:46But they forgot one thing.
00:17:48The OR had surveillance cameras.
00:17:51Full recording.
00:17:52Every moment.
00:17:53And the words Esme had said when she walked in.
00:17:57Everyone heard them.
00:18:03I started playing the recording.
00:18:05Where's the surgeon?
00:18:06Where's the one I paid?
00:18:10Esme.
00:18:11You say I stole your identity.
00:18:15Then tell me.
00:18:16Why did you have to pay a surgeon to guide you?
00:18:20Do you even know how to perform surgery?
00:18:22Everyone present was shocked.
00:18:25Esme's face turned as white as a sheet.
00:18:31I...
00:18:32I...
00:18:34You don't even know how many surgeries
00:18:36Carrie's vision restoration required.
00:18:41The fourth was a small adjustment I made in secret.
00:18:43It's not even in the medical records.
00:18:45You don't know.
00:18:47Because I performed that surgery.
00:18:49I took off my mask and faced every camera.
00:18:57I am Professor Mitchell's last student.
00:19:00The one and only miracle surgeon.
00:19:05Evelina Marsh.
00:19:06The shutters clicked wildly.
00:19:08Esme collapsed to the ground.
00:19:11Carrie's face was paper white.
00:19:12Allora's eyes nearly popped out of her head.
00:19:16How is that possible?
00:19:19You...
00:19:21You're...
00:19:24Our what?
00:19:25The orphan housewife you've been cursing at for three years?
00:19:28I spent so much money.
00:19:31I begged for so long.
00:19:33How could it be you?
00:19:35How could it be you?
00:19:37The one who took her money?
00:19:39Me.
00:19:40The one she threatened?
00:19:41Me.
00:19:42The one she impersonated?
00:19:44Still me.
00:19:46The miracle surgeon?
00:19:48So what?
00:19:51My plan has only just begun.
00:19:54Everyone knew I was the miracle surgeon.
00:19:56But I knew.
00:19:58A greater danger was only just approaching.
00:20:02After revealing my identity at Professor Mitchell's grave, I flew to Irith.
00:20:07Carrie followed me all the way to the airport.
00:20:10And knelt in front of the reporters, begging me to remarry him.
00:20:15Evelina, I was wrong.
00:20:16I was blind.
00:20:17Your surgery gave me back my sight.
00:20:19You're my savior.
00:20:20Please, let's remarry.
00:20:22Carrie, you're kneeling to the wrong person.
00:20:24You should be kneeling at Professor Mitchell's grave.
00:20:29Move.
00:20:30Leo walked out of the crowd and shielded me behind him.
00:20:34Carrie backed away several steps, overwhelmed by his presence.
00:20:41Leo, don't push it.
00:20:42She's my wife.
00:20:46Ex-wife.
00:20:47Shortly after takeoff, the plane hit a thunderstorm.
00:20:54The plane shook violently.
00:20:56Passengers screamed.
00:20:59I used to fly fighter jets in the military.
00:21:01I can help the captain.
00:21:03Leo, I trust you.
00:21:09Wait for me.
00:21:16He's going to his death.
00:21:17I hope you all die.
00:21:18Shut up.
00:21:19At least he dares to act.
00:21:21All you dare to do is kneel.
00:21:22The plane cut through the darkness.
00:21:27I closed my eyes.
00:21:29If I survived this, I'd give that man a chance.
00:21:33The plane landed safely.
00:21:38Leo stepped out of the cockpit, and reporters swarmed around him.
00:21:43In front of everyone, he lifted me off my seat.
00:21:46No tears.
00:21:47That's the woman I chose.
00:21:49Do you have any idea how dangerous that was?
00:21:52That was a thunderstorm zone.
00:21:54But you're still alive.
00:21:57That's all that matters.
00:21:58He risked his life for me, and in all my life, I had never felt so safe.
00:22:02Leo, are you all right?
00:22:05I was so scared.
00:22:07Aurora showed up too.
00:22:08She played her part perfectly.
00:22:10Too bad.
00:22:11I saw right through her.
00:22:13Miss Marsh, since you're so fragile, you should be resting at home.
00:22:17Why put yourself through this hardship?
00:22:19There was only one presidential hottie left.
00:22:22Aurora tried to claim the master bedroom.
00:22:24I wasn't having it.
00:22:26Either you share the master bedroom with me,
00:22:28or you share the smaller room with Leo.
00:22:32Or you can sleep in the conference room.
00:22:37I pulled Leo into the smaller room.
00:22:43Aurora's face turned dark.
00:22:45I knew she was watching us.
00:22:47So I put on a show just for her.
00:22:55Aurora pretended to be frail, trying to lean on Leo.
00:22:58I watched with cold eyes.
00:23:00Leo, I'm so scared.
00:23:02Stay on your feet.
00:23:03He sidestepped.
00:23:04She stumbled.
00:23:05I almost laughed out loud.
00:23:07Leo, go first.
00:23:09I'll hold them off.
00:23:12When the kidnappers stormed in, I shoved Aurora forward.
00:23:16As expected, she knew them.
00:23:18Liko, why do you only think of her?
00:23:21Leo saw through Aurora's tricks, but he didn't call her out.
00:23:24He waited.
00:23:26He waited for her to mess up.
00:23:27Leo, save me!
00:23:29I don't want to die!
00:23:30She was trying too hard.
00:23:32Too bad.
00:23:33The kidnappers weren't buying it.
00:23:38Don't touch her.
00:23:39Or you know what happens.
00:23:41I could tell.
00:23:42He was ready to strike.
00:23:44And all I had to do was hold on.
00:23:48A gunshot rang out.
00:23:50I thought I was about to die, but Leo stepped in front of me.
00:23:53Why did you come back?
00:23:54I told you to leave.
00:23:55I will never leave you behind.
00:23:57I cursed him for being reckless.
00:23:58But inside, something hit me hard.
00:24:00Suddenly, the kidnapper collapsed to the ground, black blood gushing from her mouth.
00:24:05I rushed over and checked her pulse.
00:24:07It was gone.
00:24:08In less than 10 seconds.
00:24:10She was poisoned.
00:24:12A lethal dose.
00:24:13A capsule hidden in her tooth.
00:24:15She did it so we get nothing from her.
00:24:16A melee flashed through my mind.
00:24:18Years ago when I had rescued Christina, I saw the same method of death.
00:24:21The Children of the Gods.
00:24:22The most terrifying criminal organization in the world.
00:24:25They called themselves Children of Deities.
00:24:27With clouds and the word Gods tattooed on their ankles.
00:24:29They infiltrated wealthy families.
00:24:31They killed, kidnapped, committed every evil imaginable.
00:24:35And when they were caught, they bit down on poison and died.
00:24:39Come with me.
00:24:43He held me tight.
00:24:44His voice dropped low.
00:24:47I won't let anyone hurt you.
00:24:49In that moment, I knew he meant it.
00:24:52But I also knew the Children of the Gods had already set their sights on me.
00:24:56Demi called Carrie to her bedside.
00:25:04She made him transfer 10% of his shares to me.
00:25:09Grandma, does it have to be this way?
00:25:13Evelina saved your life.
00:25:15This is what you owe her.
00:25:17He was reluctant.
00:25:19His lips trembled for a long time.
00:25:23But in the end, he signed.
00:25:28I'll sign.
00:25:29Don't come looking for me until the divorce is final.
00:25:33He stared at me, lips trembling.
00:25:36I knew what he wanted to say.
00:25:38But I didn't want to hear it.
00:25:42I decided to move to Iria permanently.
00:25:46Leo said he had found a place for me.
00:25:50My home is your home.
00:25:52Not until the day I moved in, did I realize.
00:25:55He lived right next door.
00:26:00Wow!
00:26:00Evelina!
00:26:01You and my uncle are neighbors!
00:26:04You knew all along?
00:26:07I just want to be close to you.
00:26:18Aurora had someone tailing me.
00:26:22That woman wasn't going to let this go.
00:26:24But this time, I wasn't afraid.
00:26:27Because I was no longer alone.
00:26:30No matter what happens, don't be afraid.
00:26:38The Hot Spring Resort.
00:26:40Aurora had invited me.
00:26:42I knew something was off.
00:26:45But I came anyway.
00:26:47Because I had to protect Sylvia.
00:26:50Steam rose from the water.
00:26:52It looked beautiful at first.
00:26:57Until I saw something moving beneath the surface.
00:27:03Snakes.
00:27:04Not one.
00:27:05Dozens of them surging toward us.
00:27:07Ah!
00:27:08Snakes!
00:27:08There are snakes!
00:27:10My heart skipped a beat.
00:27:12But there was no time to be afraid.
00:27:14Sylvia and Christina were right behind me.
00:27:16Stay calm!
00:27:17Run to the edge!
00:27:22Evelina!
00:27:22What about you?
00:27:23Don't worry about me!
00:27:25Go!
00:27:26I pushed them toward safety.
00:27:30Then my ankle went numb.
00:27:31A snake had me.
00:27:33The venom burned through my veins like fire.
00:27:37My vision started to sway.
00:27:39I fell.
00:27:42In that split second before I hit the water, I thought,
00:27:45maybe this was it.
00:27:47Then someone charged in the snakes.
00:27:51Water exploded everywhere.
00:27:53Water exploded everywhere.
00:27:53And he caught me.
00:27:55I'm here.
00:27:56Don't be afraid.
00:27:57It was his voice.
00:27:59It was him.
00:28:02How did he always find me?
00:28:05Right before my eyes closed, I saw his, red and trembling.
00:28:10If anything happens to her, the entire Marsh family will pay with their lives.
00:28:16When he shouted those words, even the air froze.
00:28:20Aurora stumbled backward.
00:28:22Why?
00:28:23Why would he risk everything for that woman?
00:28:25I had been by his side for years.
00:28:28Suddenly, I heard a buzzing sound.
00:28:31I looked up.
00:28:32A sky full of bees, like a black storm.
00:28:35They hurled themselves at Aurora like they had gone mad.
00:28:41She screamed and ran, twisted her ankle, fell face first into the mud.
00:28:50I wanted to laugh, but I couldn't, because my body felt like it was on fire.
00:28:59When I woke up again, I was in a hospital bed.
00:29:03There was an IV in my hand and a bitter taste in my mouth.
00:29:06Leo was sitting by the bed.
00:29:08His eyes were red, as if he hadn't slept all night.
00:29:11I'm okay.
00:29:16You almost didn't make it.
00:29:18His voice was shaking.
00:29:20This man who was never afraid, he was terrified.
00:29:22Aurora's body has a tattoo of the Children of the Gods.
00:29:30His face changed in an instant.
00:29:34Aidy Marsh, the matriarch of the Marsh family, was celebrating her birthday.
00:29:39An invitation arrived.
00:29:41Aurora invited me and Christina to attend,
00:29:44claiming she wanted to let bygones be bygones.
00:29:48Evelina, this is a trap.
00:29:50Are you sure you want to go?
00:29:53I'll go.
00:29:56The Children of the Gods had their eyes on the Marses.
00:30:00I want to know what Aurora's connection to them really is.
00:30:03The Children of the Gods.
00:30:05A global criminal organization.
00:30:09They would tattoo black clouds and the word gods on the members' bodies.
00:30:15Aurora bore a similar tattoo.
00:30:23Aurora was unusually warm that day.
00:30:26But behind her, her bodyguard Mara looked at me like a knife dipped in poison.
00:30:32That Mara keeps staring at us.
00:30:34Who is she?
00:30:38Picked by Aidy herself.
00:30:40Been with Aurora for years.
00:30:42I hope I was wrong.
00:30:53The birthday banquet hadn't even started.
00:30:56But I already smelled blood.
00:30:59It was Aidy's birthday banquet.
00:31:01The hall sparkled with jewels of the guests.
00:31:04And the heiresses strutted like peacocks.
00:31:08Did you hear?
00:31:10Cherie's painting is going up for auction again.
00:31:14Starting bid is $50 million.
00:31:17Cherry, the most mysterious painter in the world.
00:31:20No one knew who she was.
00:31:23$10 million going won.
00:31:25Her paintings were hard to get.
00:31:27Collectors tore each other apart for them.
00:31:34Cherie's painting?
00:31:35You think you're worthy of discussing it?
00:31:38That's art fit only for our family.
00:31:41Aurora arrived.
00:31:42She clicked her heels like a proud princess.
00:31:46Everyone fawned over her despite their irritation.
00:31:50Everyone fawned over her.
00:32:00She threw the painting on the floor in front of all the guests.
00:32:04The sound echoed.
00:32:06Everyone turned to look.
00:32:08Don't pretend to be rich.
00:32:12Using a fake painting to save face is just embarrassing.
00:32:16The guests started whispering.
00:32:18The heiresses covered their mouths and snickered.
00:32:22I saw all of it.
00:32:25Who said this painting is a fake?
00:32:30I took a deep breath.
00:32:33They had no idea who was standing right in front of them.
00:32:38Open your eyes and see clearly.
00:32:40This painting doesn't even have Cherie's personal signature.
00:32:44Every single Cherie painting has her unique signature.
00:32:47She spoke with such confidence.
00:32:49The guests nodded along.
00:32:51It was as if I had already been branded a fraud.
00:32:54You're just an orphan with no parents.
00:32:56How could you possibly afford an authentic Cherie's work?
00:33:00Stop embarrassing yourself.
00:33:02Should I call some real art appraisers so everyone can see how ridiculous you are?
00:33:07I stood there calmly.
00:33:09Because I knew I was the one who was about to watch her make a fool of herself.
00:33:20Three appraisers stepped forward in white gloves, holding magnifying glasses.
00:33:25Quite the spectacle.
00:33:31They huddled around it, turning it over and over.
00:33:35This painting, it doesn't have Cherie's signature.
00:33:38The brushwork is similar, but a fake is a fake.
00:33:41He finished, and the room exploded again.
00:33:45Aurora smiled like a cat that had caught a mouse.
00:33:49You heard him.
00:33:50A fake.
00:33:51What do you have to say for yourself?
00:33:55Who said the painting has no signature?
00:33:58Are you blind?
00:34:00Where is it?
00:34:01I smiled.
00:34:02Slowly.
00:34:03I pulled something out of my bag.
00:34:06Here it is.
00:34:07I took out a pen, and signed my name right right there in front of everyone.
00:34:15The motion was light, but it landed like thunder.
00:34:22You...
00:34:23What are you doing?
00:34:24I'm signing.
00:34:26Cherie's paintings always have a signature.
00:34:28I was just in a hurry this morning and forgot.
00:34:33Wait.
00:34:34Wait a minute.
00:34:40This signature.
00:34:42This is real.
00:34:45I've seen Cherie's signature on her authentic work before.
00:34:48This is it.
00:34:49His voice trembled.
00:34:50Aurora's face went pale in an instant.
00:34:53Impossible.
00:34:54You...
00:34:55You're Cherie?
00:34:58No way!
00:35:00I am Cherie.
00:35:02I painted this this morning.
00:35:04Do you need me to paint another one right now to prove it?
00:35:07The room fell dead silent.
00:35:09The ones who had been laughing behind their hands just moments ago, their faces turned ashen.
00:35:15How could she be Cherie?
00:35:17She was just a discarded orphan.
00:35:25Aurora.
00:35:26What is going on?
00:35:28Adi rose to her feet, her face dark with fury.
00:35:35Aurora's smugness shattered into pieces.
00:35:38You...
00:35:39You've humiliated me in front of all the prominent families in the city!
00:35:43Grandma, I really didn't know.
00:35:44I was tricked too!
00:35:46She cried so sadly.
00:35:48But I felt no sympathy.
00:35:49She had brought this on herself.
00:35:51Just then, servants carried in Aurora's gift.
00:35:54A gemstone necklace.
00:35:56Grandma, this is a custom birthday gift I specially ordered for you.
00:36:00Adi slowly opened it, and everyone held their breath.
00:36:05What... what is this?
00:36:07Carved on it is... a tomb?
00:36:09The gemstone was clearly ingreshed with words.
00:36:11Tomb of Adi Marsh.
00:36:13Signed by Aurora and Kurt.
00:36:14No!
00:36:15That's not it!
00:36:16This isn't my gift!
00:36:18Someone swapped it!
00:36:19I smiled.
00:36:21If Aurora thought that I would never rank fight back, she was so wrong.
00:36:26She tried to explain.
00:36:28Hysterical.
00:36:29But it was too late.
00:36:30You...
00:36:31You ungrateful rat.
00:36:33You actually want me dead?
00:36:35Adi stared at those words.
00:36:36Her eyes rolled back.
00:36:38You!
00:36:38Get out!
00:36:39From today on, I never see you again!
00:36:43Grandma, I swear it wasn't me!
00:36:45Grandma!
00:36:46Aurora chased after the stretcher.
00:36:48No one stopped her.
00:36:49No one even looked at her.
00:36:54I was about to leave, when someone blocked my path.
00:36:58Evelina, this is for you.
00:36:59Your balcony looked a bit bare.
00:37:01I thought I'd add some greenery.
00:37:02He smiled, all elegance and charm.
00:37:05In his hands was a delicate potted orchid.
00:37:08Who told you to send that?
00:37:10Leo was suddenly standing behind me.
00:37:13His voice was cold as a freezer.
00:37:15I was just being kind.
00:37:18Get out.
00:37:21The door slammed shut.
00:37:24Leo turned to look at me like a sulking child.
00:37:27You look really cute when you're jealous.
00:37:30I... I'm not.
00:37:34His ears turned red.
00:37:36It was the first time I had seen him blush, before I could even tease Leo.
00:37:43I heard news from the main hall, that someone had collapsed from poisoning.
00:37:48The banquet was in full swing when a scream cut through the noise.
00:37:53Viviana Marsh collapsed, vomiting black blood.
00:37:56Her body convulsing.
00:38:02Mother!
00:38:03Mother!
00:38:05What happened?
00:38:07Call a doctor!
00:38:12I pushed through the crowd and checked on her.
00:38:16Acute poisoning.
00:38:18And highly toxic.
00:38:19She needed immediate detox.
00:38:21Or she would die.
00:38:24Everyone stand back.
00:38:28Get me first aid kit.
00:38:29Every second counts.
00:38:35Who do you think you are?
00:38:37To touch my daughter-in-law.
00:38:39Guards!
00:38:40Drag this woman out!
00:38:42Addie raised her cane high, aiming for my head.
00:38:45I closed my eyes.
00:38:47Then heard a thud.
00:38:49Leo had thrown himself in front of me.
00:38:52Don't you dare.
00:38:58His gaze was like a blade.
00:39:00Adie's hand froze.
00:39:02In that gap, I found some specific medication and stuffed them into Vivian's mouth.
00:39:09Vivian's face slowly improved.
00:39:13I exhaled.
00:39:15She would live.
00:39:16Evelina!
00:39:17How dare you feed unknown pills to my mother!
00:39:20Are you trying to kill her?
00:39:24Shut up.
00:39:25Say one more word, and I'll let your mother die before your eyes.
00:39:37Insolent.
00:39:38Guards!
00:39:40Seize this impulence wretch!
00:39:42My eyes scanned the reception hall, and landed on a new aromatherapy ornament in the corner.
00:39:49This is a slow-acting poison.
00:39:52Breathe it for two hours will lead to unconsciousness.
00:39:55Another half hour, and she wouldn't have made it.
00:40:02It's you.
00:40:04You want to kill my mom and frame me?
00:40:08You picked the reception hall.
00:40:12You chose the ornament.
00:40:16If anyone's framing anyone, it's you framing me.
00:40:21Aurora's face twisted.
00:40:26The crowd stirred.
00:40:30Guards!
00:40:32Seal every exit!
00:40:33The killer is still inside!
00:40:35No one leaves!
00:40:37At Aurora's command, the guards slashed every door shut.
00:40:43Guests were trapped in the hall, exchanging panicked looks.
00:40:47Mara and the guards began searching everyone one by one.
00:40:50As she passed me, a knowing smirk curled on her lips.
00:40:53In that moment, I understood Mara wasn't helping Aurora find the killer.
00:40:57She was helping the real killer erase the evidence.
00:41:06The guards have separated us from our people.
00:41:09And they've taken our guns.
00:41:11Leo, this is a trap.
00:41:14Aurora is making her move.
00:41:16No sooner had I spoken, than all the lights went out.
00:41:20Darkness swallowed everything like a rising tide.
00:41:27Then dozens of figures scaled the wall, clutching blades and guns.
00:41:32In the moonlight, their eyes were cold as beasts.
00:41:36Evelina, stay behind me.
00:41:44No, there's too many of them.
00:41:46We need cover first.
00:41:50Gunfire exploded.
00:41:51A bullet whistled past my ear, and shattered a Vos behind me.
00:41:56Shards sting my face.
00:42:02Leo, come out!
00:42:04As long as you cut ties with Evelina, they won't kill you!
00:42:10In your dreams!
00:42:28This time, I was afraid we were done for.
00:42:32The firefight dragged on.
00:42:36We ran out of bullets, cornered.
00:42:41Then Kurt appeared out of nowhere.
00:42:45And took three bullets for me.
00:42:48Evelina, you owe me three lives.
00:42:53Are you crazy?
00:42:55Why you came?
00:43:00Before Kurt collapsed, he shoved something into my hand.
00:43:09Restored chat logs from Mara's phone.
00:43:11It wrote,
00:43:12Tonight's operation, target Evelina.
00:43:14Signed with the mark of the Sons of the Love.
00:43:16Before Kurt came to help, he hacked Mara's phone.
00:43:20Aurora is a member of the Children of the Gods.
00:43:24I knew it.
00:43:26The Sons of the Love specialized in using seduction and marriage to infiltrate powerful families.
00:43:33Karoli seared line-gridding of wampufle families.
00:43:36Aurora was their deepest mole in the Marsh family.
00:43:39Leo, I'm giving you one last chance.
00:43:42I'm Commimbrous Alas.
00:43:45I'll leave you one last chance.
00:43:48Leave Evelina, and I'll keep you safe.
00:43:51Never.
00:43:52Aurora tore off her last mask.
00:43:59She raised her gun, and pointed it at me.
00:44:05At the critical moment, the Russell family's reinforcements arrived.
00:44:10Ian led the charge, and cut a path to get me, Leo, and Kurt out.
00:44:20After them!
00:44:21Don't let them escape!
00:44:24We hid and ran through the Marsh Mansion.
00:44:28Aurora same father's like a mad woman.
00:44:34With Mara right behind her, clutching a dagger.
00:44:37Miss, I'll check that way.
00:44:39You wait here.
00:44:40Go!
00:44:41Find Evelina, dead or alive.
00:44:48Mara sent Aurora away.
00:44:49She walked toward our hiding spot alone, humming a tune.
00:44:56I had heard that song before.
00:44:58In the Children of the Gods' lair, that was what they sang before they died.
00:45:02She's found us.
00:45:11Evelina, stop hiding.
00:45:13I know you're there.
00:45:18Mara stopped and put away her dagger.
00:45:22She pulled out a gun, and aimed it at the screen we were hiding behind.
00:45:30Mara didn't shoot.
00:45:32She lit a cigarette and leaned against a pillar, as if waiting for someone.
00:45:43Evelina, you think Aurora is the mastermind?
00:45:46She's just a pawn.
00:45:48The person who really wants you dead isn't me, nor her.
00:45:53Who is it then?
00:45:57Guess.
00:46:02Guess right.
00:46:03And I'll make your death quick.
00:46:06Mara was stalling.
00:46:07Who was she waiting for?
00:46:09I didn't know.
00:46:13Mara!
00:46:15What are you doing here?
00:46:16Did you catch them?
00:46:18Miss, you're too late.
00:46:21Evelina got away.
00:46:29Useless!
00:46:35Mara lied to Aurora.
00:46:37She let us go on purpose, because her mission wasn't to kill me.
00:46:42It was to make Aurora take the fall.
00:46:52We had barely reached the hut behind the main house, when Aurora caught up with her men.
00:46:57This time, Mara didn't help.
00:47:00Ah!
00:47:01Ah!
00:47:02Ah!
00:47:04Ah!
00:47:04Ah!
00:47:04Ah!
00:47:05Ah!
00:47:05Ah!
00:47:08Ah!
00:47:11Ah!
00:47:11She shoved both me and Aurora in front of Leo, and smiled.
00:47:14Ah!
00:47:16Ah!
00:47:16Ah!
00:47:17Ah!
00:47:17Ah!
00:47:18Ah!
00:47:18Ah!
00:47:18Ah!
00:47:18Ah!
00:47:19Ah!
00:47:19Ah!
00:47:20Ah!
00:47:21Ah!
00:47:21Ah!
00:47:21Ah!
00:47:33Ah!
00:47:33Ah!
00:47:34Ah!
00:47:34Ah!
00:47:34Ah!
00:47:34Ah!
00:47:35Ah!
00:47:36Ah!
00:47:37Ah!
00:47:44Ah!
00:47:46Ah!
00:47:47Ah!
00:47:48Ah!
00:47:50Ah!
00:47:51Mara's gun pressed, pressed against my forehead, cold metal luminal reeking of death.
00:48:01Let her go.
00:48:05I'll stay.
00:48:12You're not in a position to bargain.
00:48:14Three seconds, choose.
00:48:18Three.
00:48:20Two.
00:48:22Mara's finger started to squeeze the trigger.
00:48:26The gun fired, but it was Mara who fell.
00:48:29Ian's sniper bullet pierced her temple.
00:48:35Russell family guards swarmed in.
00:48:38Aurora fled in the chaos.
00:48:42Addie rushed in with her men.
00:48:44Seeing Mara dead, she did the unthinkable.
00:48:46She raised her cased her cane to strike me.
00:48:51Leo threw himself in the way.
00:48:55You killed my bodyguard.
00:48:58I'll have your life today.
00:49:01Try touching a single hair on her head.
00:49:03I dare you.
00:49:04Leo's gaze was like a blade.
00:49:07Addie's hand froze in mid-air.
00:49:09At that moment, Franklin arrived.
00:49:11Franklin Marsh, the head of the Marsh family, a man past 50 with guilt heavy in his eyes.
00:49:16He had lost his daughter over 20 years ago, and had never stopped searching.
00:49:21Yet here he was, stepping forward to shield me, a stranger.
00:49:24Stop!
00:49:29Franklin shielded me behind him and took out a ring, the Franklin family ruler's token.
00:49:34Are you insane?
00:49:37Why defend a stranger?
00:49:39I am the ruler of this family.
00:49:41I decide.
00:49:42Addie trembled with rage.
00:49:44In that moment, I began to wonder.
00:49:47Could my own origins be tied to the Marsh family?
00:49:50Addie fainted from rage.
00:49:53Franklin ordered her taken to her bedroom.
00:49:56But then, fire erupted from the main building.
00:50:04No!
00:50:05The butler set fire to the master bedroom!
00:50:08Mr. Axel Marsh and Mr. Damien Marsh are trapped inside!
00:50:14I ran into the inferno.
00:50:21Smoke stung my eyes.
00:50:24Axel and Damien lay unconscious on the floor.
00:50:27I dragged them out as beams crashed down behind me.
00:50:34I finally pulled them to the door.
00:50:36Looking back, I saw the butler standing in the flames, his body already on fire.
00:50:42He raised his arms and screamed.
00:50:43Hail, children of the gods!
00:50:46The butler burned to ash.
00:50:50I collapsed in the yard, holding Axel and Damien, trembling all over.
00:50:57Leo rushed over and pulled me into his arms.
00:51:01Leo, the children of the gods target isn't just me.
00:51:04They want to start chaos in Aira.
00:51:06To make all the powerful families tear each other apart.
00:51:10I know.
00:51:12We won't let them.
00:51:13The fire lit up half the sky.
00:51:17I leaned against Leo feeling for the first time that this city's future hung by a thread.
00:51:23As we cleared the fire scene, Aurora appeared.
00:51:26She pressed a gun to Franklin's head, forcing everyone back.
00:51:31Everyone back off, or I'll kill him.
00:51:34Aurora, have you lost your mind?
00:51:36I'm your father!
00:51:38Shut up!
00:51:39I'm not the real Aurora!
00:51:41The real one has been locked up by us for years!
00:51:43I'm a fake!
00:51:46Everyone was stunned.
00:51:48The fake Aurora tore off her mask, revealing a stranger's face.
00:51:52Mr. Marsh, the daughter you raised for decades was nothing but a pawn.
00:51:57Now, I want you to destroy her with your own hands!
00:52:01She laughed wildly and pulled the trigger.
00:52:04At the last moment, a rustle guard shot the gun from her hand.
00:52:07The fake Aurora, seeing no escape, bit down on a poison capsule in her mouth.
00:52:13The children of the gods!
00:52:16She collapsed, black blood foaming from her mouth, dead on the spot.
00:52:20Franklin slumped onto the steps, his eyes hollow.
00:52:23Just an adopted daughter died. Why are you crying?
00:52:26Addie was cold as stone.
00:52:29Franklin's tears welled up, but I felt a chill down my spine.
00:52:33This family, it was too cold.
00:52:35The infiltration rocked all of Iray.
00:52:38Every powerful family started internal investigations, panic spreading.
00:52:42I was tending to the wounded Kurt in the hospital when he asked to see me alone.
00:52:46Evilana, there's something I have to tell you.
00:52:49I wheeled him to a quiet corner of the garden.
00:52:57In the moonlight, his face was pale, but his eyes were fiercely determined.
00:53:05Evilana, I am the Ghost King.
00:53:12What?
00:53:15The master of the Ghost Market is you?
00:53:18The Ghost King, a legendary figure who knew all secrets.
00:53:22His Ghost Market commanded power that made even world leaders tread carefully.
00:53:28I never imagined that this mysterious king would be Kurt, lying in a hospital bed.
00:53:33Yes, I've been looking for you.
00:53:35Nayyan in Pinebrook Village, you say a mind man who was being bullied, do you remember?
00:53:39Pinebrook Village? A mind man?
00:53:41My memory snapped back to years ago.
00:53:43A young man curled up in a corner, covered in wounds.
00:53:47It was you?
00:53:48You're that?
00:53:49What?
00:53:50It was me.
00:53:51From that day on, I swore I would find you and protect you for the rest of my life.
00:53:56Kurt took my hand.
00:53:58His eyes filled with years of hidden longing.
00:54:02I froze.
00:54:08He had been in love with me for ten years.
00:54:12Evelina.
00:54:13I know you love Leo.
00:54:15But I don't care.
00:54:16I'll keep waiting.
00:54:18Until you turn around to me.
00:54:20I opened my mouth, but no words came.
00:54:22Kurt had taken three bullets for me and told me such a heavy secret.
00:54:26I couldn't pretend I didn't know, but I couldn't give him false hope either.
00:54:30Kurt.
00:54:31I appreciate your feelings, but that's due with staggerings.
00:54:34But my heart belongs only to Leo.
00:54:37I'm sorry.
00:54:39Don't apologize.
00:54:40Loving you is my choice.
00:54:42It has nothing to do with you.
00:54:44Moonlight spilled over his pale face.
00:54:46He smiled.
00:54:48A smile sadder than tears.
00:54:50I wheeled him back to the ward.
00:54:55Neither of us spoke, footsteps behind me.
00:54:58Leo stepped out of the shadows.
00:54:59He had clearly heard everything.
00:55:01He didn't ask anything.
00:55:04He just took my hand, lacing his fingers through mine.
00:55:09Let's go home.
00:55:13I nodded and buried my face in his arm.
00:55:17The incident of the Children of the Gods wasn't over.
00:55:20But right then, I just wanted to lean on him and sleep.
00:55:24The news of Demi's critical condition cut through me like a knife.
00:55:27The woman who had raised me.
00:55:28I could not let her die.
00:55:30I flew back to Aglonerate overnight.
00:55:32As soon as I stepped out of the airport, I saw the person I least wanted to see.
00:55:36My ex-husband, Carrie.
00:55:41Evelina, you finally came back.
00:55:45I knew you still loved me, didn't you?
00:55:48He knelt before me.
00:55:50Eyes red, as if he was the one who had been wronged.
00:55:53In three years of marriage, he had never once looked at me properly.
00:55:57Now he was putting on a show of devotion.
00:56:00I slapped him.
00:56:01I came back for Demi, not you.
00:56:03Move.
00:56:07Evelina, you can't do this to me.
00:56:09Let's remarry, please.
00:56:11I walked away without looking back, his pleas echoing behind me.
00:56:19Late at night in my hotel room, my phone rang.
00:56:22Did you arrive?
00:56:23It was Leo.
00:56:24On the video call, he was leaning against the headbed in his pajamas, clearly waiting for me.
00:56:29After hanging up, I touched his face on the screen.
00:56:33This man was the only light in my dark life.
00:56:37But could I make it through the mess of the Gibson family safely?
00:56:42Demi lay in the hospital bed, her face sang her.
00:56:46When she saw me, her cloudy eyes lit up.
00:56:52She took my hand and shoved a document bag into my arms.
00:56:56Evelina, this is 25% of Gibson Group's shares.
00:56:59I beg you, take it. Save the company.
00:57:02Grandma, she's not family anymore.
00:57:04Without her, our family would have been finished long ago.
00:57:08And you dare to speak-
00:57:09Carrie's face turned crimson, but he couldn't say a word in rebushell.
00:57:13I picked up the pen and signed my name on the transfer agreement.
00:57:17Not for their family.
00:57:19For this elderly woman at the end of her life.
00:57:23Back at the hotel, the front desk stopped me.
00:57:25A large box had arrived at my room.
00:57:28When the elevator doors opened, all I saw was red.
00:57:32999 roses, covering the entire living room.
00:57:37I opened the card.
00:57:39It was Leo's handwriting.
00:57:41You deserve the world.
00:57:47My nose tingled.
00:57:49Carrie's parents somehow found out where I was staying,
00:57:51and blocked the villa entrance with their people.
00:57:54They shouted insults through a loudspeaker.
00:57:57Bitch! Jinx!
00:57:58Loud enough for the whole street to hear.
00:58:01I watched them from the window, not angry, just amused.
00:58:05I had Leo's driver prepare prepare a dozen drones,
00:58:08each carrying a bucket of sewage.
00:58:21The moment the sewage poured down, they screamed and ran,
00:58:24then fell into a pit in the garden and soaked in the filth all night.
00:58:30The next morning, I drove past, rolled down the window, and smiled at them.
00:58:37Need any help?
00:58:43They were so angry that they nearly fainted.
00:58:49I smiled like a child, then turned my head and blinked at Leo.
00:58:54Do you think I went too far?
00:58:56I like you just like this.
00:59:03Demi's surgery was a success.
00:59:05I stayed with her for three days,
00:59:07and only when her vitals stabilized did I head back to Irith.
00:59:11But I never expected the cult to be waiting for me on the road.
00:59:23The moment the car spun out of control, all I could do was protect my head.
00:59:31When I woke up from the blackout, I was trapped in the twisted wreckage.
00:59:37Evelina!
00:59:39Evelina, wake up!
00:59:41Leo's voice was choked with tears.
00:59:43He was covered in blood, desperately prying at the crushed door.
00:59:46I didn't know how he had found me, but he did, like every other time.
00:59:50You can't die!
00:59:52I haven't married you yet!
01:00:01Do you hear me?!
01:00:03His hot tears fell on my face.
01:00:05I reached up, wrapped my arms around his neck, and kissed him.
01:00:09The taste of blood spread between our lips, but to me, it was sweet.
01:00:16I love you.
01:00:22From now on, your life is my life.
01:00:27That was the first time we said I love you.
01:00:29In an ambulance, in a pool of blood.
01:00:32I thought I'd be afraid, but lying in his arms, I only felt safe.
01:00:38This man was worth entrusting my life to.
01:00:42I had barely woken up in the ERA hospital when I saw Franklin Marsh.
01:00:46The head of the Marsh family, the congressman, looked even pallor than I did.
01:00:51He knelt beside my bed and shoved a envelope into my hands.
01:00:59Dr. Marsh, I've been investigating for a long time.
01:01:04You are my daughter who missing over 20 years ago.
01:01:08Jasmine.
01:01:09I froze, my mind blank.
01:01:13I had always thought I was an unwon wanted orphan.
01:01:17Now suddenly someone told me I was the true heiress of the Marsh family?
01:01:22What a joke.
01:01:25Mr. Marsh, you're mistaken.
01:01:36No matter the result, I'm here.
01:01:38Whether you're an orphan or a Marsh heiress, you're still my woman.
01:01:48Leo took up my hand.
01:01:50His hand was large and warm.
01:01:54I looked into his determined eyes and nodded.
01:01:58If this path led to my past, I was willing to walk it.
01:02:03Because he would be with me the whole way.
01:02:07I'll walk with you as you find your way home.
01:02:09This man never put limits on me.
01:02:14But holding that DNA report, my hands still trembled.
01:02:19Esme's brother Sebastian had set up a stock god studio in Aglenard,
01:02:23raising funds everywhere.
01:02:25Esme was his connection, and they were targeting me.
01:02:29If siblings wanted to play, I would play big.
01:02:33I put on a fox mask and used a voice changer to become the stock god, Elma.
01:02:39Sebastian saw my fake ID and my disfigured face.
01:02:43He was so scared, he never doubted me again.
01:02:47Leo was worried and insisted on sending four guards with me.
01:02:51At the airport, I teased him for being too nervous.
01:02:54He pulled me into a corner, leaned close to my ear and said,
01:02:58You are my life. Of course I'm nervous.
01:03:01For the first time, he kissed my oarhead in public.
01:03:04In the crowded airport, when his lips touched my oarhead, my heart raced like crazy.
01:03:09This man always caught me off guard.
01:03:12Wait for me to come back.
01:03:14I turned and walked through security, not daring to look back.
01:03:18I was afraid if I did, I wouldn't be able to leave.
01:03:23The trap for Sebastian was set.
01:03:26Now I just waited for him to jump in.
01:03:29Sebastian raised 200 million, plus his entire net worth,
01:03:33and put it all into the six stocks I had picked.
01:03:35I didn't lie, they did rise for the first three days.
01:03:38But the stock market was never an ATM.
01:03:41On the fourth day, four stocks crashed.
01:03:44Within two days, they hit rock bottom.
01:03:48Sebastian lost everything.
01:03:50Investors desperately chased him for money.
01:03:53The police arrested him for illegal fundraising.
01:03:56I tore off my disguise and stood before him.
01:03:59His eyes went wide.
01:04:01He couldn't believe he had been tricked by me from start to finish.
01:04:05Your sister owes me, so you should pay back.
01:04:08After my victory, I flew back to Irie.
01:04:13Leo picked me up at the airport,
01:04:15pulled me into the car, and locked his fingers with mine.
01:04:19I leaned on his shoulder, feeling like all the luck in this life had been used to meet him.
01:04:25You're the most badass woman I've ever met.
01:04:32Because you've got my back.
01:04:35Outside the car window, the city sparkled.
01:04:37Inside, his hand was warm and strong.
01:04:41But I knew, Esme wouldn't let this go.
01:04:44The storm was still ahead.
01:04:47Esme and Carrie's engagement banquet.
01:04:49They had actually sent me an invitation.
01:04:52Margo delivered it in person.
01:04:53My sister-in-law insists you come.
01:05:00I smiled.
01:05:01This was a trap.
01:05:03But if I didn't go, how could I enjoy the show?
01:05:13Miss Marsh, thank you for taking care of Carrie back then.
01:05:19Don't worry.
01:05:20Even if he begs you to get back together, I won't mind.
01:05:24Her words were generous, but her eyes were full of triumph.
01:05:28She thought standing beside Carrie meant she had beaten me.
01:05:32Too bad she had forgotten how she won.
01:05:34I stood up and turned on the big screen.
01:05:38The video of Esme stripping tripping in an overseas bar played, and everyone was stunned.
01:05:49Kaylee was shocked and furious.
01:05:52Esme knelt, clatching his leg and crying.
01:05:57In front of everyone, he kicked her away.
01:06:00Our relationship is over!
01:06:08I turned and left the banquet hall.
01:06:11Leo's car was already waiting outside.
01:06:21He pulled me in and kissed me.
01:06:23His kiss was possessive and tender.
01:06:31I don't allow anyone to bully my woman.
01:06:41Esme's parents sold everything they owned, but they still couldn't raise $200 million.
01:06:46Sebastian's life sentence could be reduced only if he compensated all the investors.
01:06:50They begged everyone.
01:06:51No one lent them a cent.
01:06:52In the end, I did.
01:06:54I became the Barton family's biggest creditor.
01:06:57Esme was furious and charged at me to hit me.
01:07:00Before her fingers could touch my face,
01:07:03Leo's guards pinned her to the ground.
01:07:06What you owe me, you'll pay back slowly.
01:07:09Patience is something I have plenty of.
01:07:1110 years isn't enough?
01:07:13Make it 20.
01:07:14Gibson Group's stock plummeted thanks to Esme's scandal.
01:07:17I waited for a good price and quietly bought 42% of the shares.
01:07:21Plus the 25% Demi had given me.
01:07:24I became the largest shareholder of Gibson Group.
01:07:27Evelina!
01:07:28You set me up!
01:07:33You betrayed me first.
01:07:36Leo stood behind me, silent.
01:07:38But his presence was my hardest armor.
01:07:40Carrie had never beaten me, and he never would.
01:07:43I slammed the evidence down in front of him.
01:07:47From now on, I make the rules.
01:07:49You're fired.
01:07:50Phil slumped to the floor.
01:07:52The rest of the Gibsons stared in shock.
01:07:57The maid they had pullied three years was no longer a pushover.
01:08:01Back in Irish that night, Leo had prepared a candlelit dinner.
01:08:06The wine swirled.
01:08:07The lights dim.
01:08:09He sat beside me and lifted my chimen with his fingers.
01:08:12I didn't answer.
01:08:14He lowered his head, his lips brushing my neck.
01:08:17Warm breath against my skin.
01:08:20I tilted my head back, my fingers grabbing his shirt.
01:08:25His kisses trailed from my neck to my collarbone.
01:08:29One arm wrapped around my waist, lifting me from the chair.
01:08:33We stumbled into the bedroom.
01:08:35He laid me on the bed and loosened his tie.
01:08:37I pulled him down and unbuttoned his shirt.
01:08:41His skin was burning.
01:08:43My heart pounded like it might explode.
01:08:46His voice was low and horny, barely restrained.
01:08:49I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him.
01:08:53That night, I stayed in his bedroom.
01:08:56Outside, the night was dark.
01:08:57His embrace was warm.
01:09:00But when we woke up tomorrow, what awaited us?
01:09:04Morning sunlight streamed through the curtains.
01:09:06I opened my eyes and found myself in a warm embrace.
01:09:09It was Leo.
01:09:10I didn't know how long he had been awake, just watching me quietly.
01:09:15Good morning, Mrs. Russell.
01:09:17I was stunned for a moment, then blushed.
01:09:20Mrs. Russell.
01:09:21Those words from his lips were as sweet as honey.
01:09:24I punched him playfully, but he just smiled and held me tighter.
01:09:29Who said I'm your Mrs. Russell?
01:09:33You will be.
01:09:35Sooner or later.
01:09:36We had breakfast together as lovers for the first time.
01:09:40He picked up a strawberry and brought it to my lips.
01:09:44I bit it.
01:09:46And bit his finger too.
01:09:49He groaned.
01:09:50His gaze darkening.
01:09:52When all of this is over, let's get married.
01:09:54His voice was serious, not joking at all.
01:09:56I looked into his eyes and nodded.
01:09:59Yes.
01:10:00But the cult hadn't been destroyed yet, and Aurora's whereabouts were still unknown.
01:10:05Would we live to see that day?
01:10:08The cult sent a new assassin, trying to recruit Kurt.
01:10:12But he refused and secretly tipped off Leo.
01:10:15That day I went out alone when a black sedan suddenly sped towards me.
01:10:22Before I could dodge, a figure rushed over and tackled me.
01:10:27It was Leo.
01:10:29The assassin's blade sank into his arm.
01:10:33Blood soaked through my clothes instantly.
01:10:36I told you.
01:10:38Your life is my life.
01:10:42I bandaged him with tears streaming down my face.
01:10:45My hands trembling violently.
01:10:47He was pale with pain.
01:10:49But he was still smiling.
01:10:53I kissed him.
01:10:54The taste of blood filled my mouth.
01:10:56But I didn't want to stop.
01:10:58I'm not afraid anymore.
01:11:00Because I have you.
01:11:01He pulled me into his arms, and we kissed.
01:11:03Covered in blood.
01:11:04In that moment, I felt that as long as he was here, I feared nothing.
01:11:08The real Aurora was found.
01:11:10She had been locked up by the cult for years.
01:11:12When she was rescued, she had lost her mind.
01:11:15Just giggling foolishly.
01:11:16Franklin held her and wept.
01:11:18My daughter.
01:11:19How did my daughter end up like this?
01:11:21Vivian fainted beside them.
01:11:23That night, Leo took me to the rooftop to watch the stars.
01:11:28I had never told anyone about the orphanage.
01:11:30But in front of him, I found myself telling him everything.
01:11:34When I talked about being bullied by the older kids, my voice trembled.
01:11:38From now on, no one will ever bully you again.
01:11:41I promise.
01:11:42If I'm not really a Marsh, would you still love me?
01:11:46I love you.
01:11:47Not your last name.
01:11:49Jasmina Marsh or Evelina Marsh, it's still you.
01:11:51He wiped the tears from my face, and pulled me into his arms.
01:11:55We sat in silence as the stars appeared one by one.
01:11:58Then my phone buzzed.
01:11:59The DNA report had arrived.
01:12:01My hands started to shake.
01:12:03Franklin announced publicly that I was his long-lost daughter, the true heiress of the Marsh family.
01:12:09The room erupted.
01:12:12Addie was the first to object, her voice sharp as a knife.
01:12:17She's not worthy.
01:12:18A girl raised in an orphanage, she deserves the Marsh name?
01:12:22Mother, she is my daughter.
01:12:25I won't allow it.
01:12:26Our family can't afford this shame.
01:12:30I smiled, slipped the ruler's ring onto my thumb,
01:12:35and held it up for everyone to see.
01:12:39The room went dead silent.
01:12:41This ring makes the rules.
01:12:44Addie trembled with rage, her lips quivering but no words came.
01:12:48I turned and walked away.
01:12:50The sound of a shattered teacup behind him.
01:12:53I didn't need their approval.
01:12:55I only needed the truth.
01:12:59Evelina!
01:13:02Leo caught up with me in the corridor and draped his coat over my shoulders.
01:13:09I sobbed like a child against his chest.
01:13:16But the look in Aidy's eyes chilled my spine.
01:13:21Vivian's eyes could finally be treated.
01:13:24I performed the surgery myself.
01:13:26It was a success.
01:13:27When the bandages came off, she saw me, her daughter.
01:13:31Her trembling hand reached out to touch my face.
01:13:34My daughter.
01:13:36I've waited so long, far too long.
01:13:39Your eyes, they look just like your father's.
01:13:42Mom, say it again.
01:13:45Please say it again.
01:13:47Mom.
01:13:48That was the first time I had uttered that word.
01:13:54Vivian held me, her whole body trembling as she cried.
01:14:00Leo stood outside the door.
01:14:02His eyes red, too.
01:14:03On the way home, I leaned on his shoulder and suddenly spoke.
01:14:08My determination to marry you is even stronger than my desire to find my family.
01:14:14Say that again.
01:14:15I said, before I could finish, he cranked the wheel, pulled over, cupped my face, and kissed me deeply.
01:14:23Traffic flowed outside.
01:14:27Sirens grew louder, closer.
01:14:29Was something happening, or were they coming for us?
01:14:33My phone rang.
01:14:34An unknown number.
01:14:36I answered and heard Sylvia crying.
01:14:43The cult's remnants had kidnapped her.
01:14:45Evelina, want to save her?
01:14:48Trade your life for hers.
01:14:50Come alone.
01:14:52Call the cops and she dies.
01:14:54Evelina, help me!
01:14:58I'm so scared.
01:15:01I'll go.
01:15:02You stay here.
01:15:09Let me handle this.
01:15:11If I don't come back...
01:15:13Don't say stupid things.
01:15:17You will come back.
01:15:19Promise me.
01:15:25I promise.
01:15:26He covered my mouth, and I couldn't say another word.
01:15:30At the villa gate, he kissed me, passionate and lingering, as if trying to fit a lifetime into that kiss.
01:15:40Then he let me go and stepped back.
01:15:42My people will be waiting outside.
01:15:46Once you're in, give me the signal.
01:15:50Okay.
01:15:53I turned and walked away, not daring to look back.
01:15:56I was afraid that if I did...
01:15:59I wouldn't be able to take another step.
01:16:04Sylvia, wait for me.
01:16:07I snuck into the cult's hideout alone.
01:16:11One guard fell after another.
01:16:13Gunfire echoed through the empty factory.
01:16:16I found Sylvia tied behind a pillar.
01:16:19Gagged.
01:16:25Don't be afraid.
01:16:26I'm here.
01:16:30Just then, gunfire erupted from another direction.
01:16:34Leo had led his men in from the rear.
01:16:36Bullets whistled past my ears, hitting the walls and picking up debris.
01:16:39Evelina!
01:16:40Are you okay?
01:16:41I'm fine!
01:16:42I have Sylvia!
01:16:43We stood back to back.
01:16:45He covered the left.
01:16:46I covered the right.
01:16:47One by one, the kidnappers fell.
01:16:51Then sirens blared from outside the building.
01:16:54Friend or foe.
01:16:58Meeting you in this lifetime?
01:17:00It was worth it.
01:17:02Don't talk like that.
01:17:03We're both getting out of here alive.
01:17:06I gripped my gun tighter and followed him.
01:17:11But the sirens grew louder.
01:17:12Who had called the police?
01:17:13I detonated the timed bomb.
01:17:17The blast wave threw us to the ground.
01:17:19The cult's hideout turned to rubble in the flames.
01:17:22Aurora was dragged from the wreckage by the police, laughing like a mad woman.
01:17:30You'll all die horrible deaths!
01:17:33Horrible deaths!
01:17:35You lost.
01:17:39I didn't lose.
01:17:41The cult will never let you go!
01:17:44Not one of you!
01:17:45Leo wrapped his arms around me from behind,
01:17:48covered in dust, blood trickling down his arm.
01:17:51You scared me so much.
01:17:52His voice trembled.
01:17:53Do you know how scared I was?
01:17:58I promised you I'd come back.
01:18:00Flares shot up from the ruins.
01:18:02We held each other tight.
01:18:03Police were clearing the scene.
01:18:05A police officer walked towards us with a file in his hand.
01:18:11Aurora's confession.
01:18:12The police interrogation results were in.
01:18:15Aurora confessed to all of the cult's schemes.
01:18:17They had been infiltrating Iria's powerful families for years.
01:18:20The Marshes, the Russells, the Hawthorns, all of them were on the list.
01:18:24That list was three pages long.
01:18:27Every name on this list needs to be investigated.
01:18:29You should be careful in the coming days.
01:18:33At the celebration banquet, major media outlets rushed to report.
01:18:38Leo took my hand, led me to the stage, and announced to everyone.
01:18:45This is my fiancee.
01:18:48When will you get married?
01:18:51Soon.
01:18:52The whole room cheered.
01:18:55I stood under the spotlight, looking at the people who had once looked down on me, now all applauding.
01:19:01But out of the corner of my eye, I saw Adi glaring at me from the corner.
01:19:05Was her name on that list?
01:19:07I stood on the stage of the press conference, facing a sea of cameras.
01:19:11The flashing lights nearly blinded me.
01:19:15I took a deep breath and spoke the secret that had been hidden for over 20 years.
01:19:19I am the lost daughter of the Marsh family, Jasmine Marsh.
01:19:28I'm no longer the unwanted orphan.
01:19:32Miss Marsh, is it true that Adi opposes you returning to the family?
01:19:37I don't need her approval.
01:19:38I only need the truth.
01:19:40Franklin and Vivian were crying controllably in the audience.
01:19:44Leo stood beside me, holding my hand tightly.
01:19:55On the way home, soon the car stopped.
01:19:58He pressed me against the seat.
01:20:00I can't wait any longer.
01:20:03And then, when he kissed me, I threaded my fingers through his hair.
01:20:10Leo said he wanted to take me somewhere.
01:20:12I didn't think much of it and followed him to Iris' largest square.
01:20:17Then I froze.
01:20:199,199 red roses were laid out in a giant heart.
01:20:24Every one of them still had dew on the petals, glistening in the sunlight.
01:20:29When... when did you prepare all this?
01:20:32From the first day I fell in love with you.
01:20:35I've been thinking about this day every single day.
01:20:38The big screen in the square lit up, playing photos of us from the day we met until now.
01:20:43A line text appeared.
01:20:45You are the woman I earned with my life.
01:20:47More and more people gathered around.
01:20:49Some pulled out their phones to take pictures.
01:20:52Others gasped in awe.
01:20:54Leo turned to face the crowd.
01:20:57Then slowly dropped to one knee.
01:21:00Evelina Marsh, marry me.
01:21:02He pulled the heirloom ruby ring from his suit pocket and held it up to me.
01:21:07Tears fell from my eyes instantly.
01:21:10I wanted to speak, but my throat tightened.
01:21:12Say yes!
01:21:14Say yes!
01:21:15Say yes!
01:21:16Yes!
01:21:17I'll marry you!
01:21:18The whole crowd cheered.
01:21:20He stood up, held me, and slipped the ring onto my finger.
01:21:24On the wedding day, the sunlight was perfect.
01:21:27The rustles, the marshes, the hawthorns, almost every prominent figure in Irish was there.
01:21:32I stood at one end of the red carpet in my white wedding gown, my hands trembling slightly.
01:21:38At the other end of the carpet, Leo stood in a black suit, his eyes red.
01:21:43He reached out his hand to me, his lips trembling, unable to speak a single word.
01:21:49Just as I was about to step forward, Carrie burst in.
01:21:53He reeked of alcohol, and as the guards held him back, he kept shouting.
01:21:58One look from Leo, and the guards dragged him out.
01:22:01Evelina, you can't marry him! You love me!
01:22:04The person I love was never you.
01:22:06He froze for a second, then was dragged out of the church.
01:22:09As the doors closed, the world fell silent.
01:22:13I walked toward Leo, each step landing on my heartbeat.
01:22:18At that same moment, in the courthouse, Esma was sentenced to three years.
01:22:23Evelina!
01:22:24She cried out my name.
01:22:27When I heard the news, I just smiled.
01:22:31What you owe Landon, you'll never repay in this lifetime.
01:22:41You look beautiful today.
01:22:46You look especially handsome, too.
01:22:50The guests applauded and cheered.
01:22:54From now on, I'm yours.
01:22:56He smiled, but his eyes grew even redder.
01:23:01You already were.
01:23:11On our wedding night, Leo carried me into the bedroom.
01:23:14Red candles flickered, warm golden light filling the room.
01:23:19He laid me on the bed, and before I could react, his body pressed down against mine.
01:23:24Do you know how long I've waited for this day?
01:23:27How long?
01:23:28Too long.
01:23:30He didn't give me another chance to speak.
01:23:32His lips slid from my mouth to my chin, then to my neck, burning with heat.
01:23:38I bit my lip, my fingers clutching his shirt.
01:23:41His nimble fingers unbuttoned my wedding gown.
01:23:44Then he lowered his head and kissed my colosone.
01:23:46I tilted my head back, a soft sound expading my throat.
01:23:51His breathing quickened.
01:23:53Evelina.
01:23:56His voice was low and horky, as if scourged by fire.
01:24:00He gripped my waist and flipped me on top of him.
01:24:03The candlelight flickered.
01:24:04His face loomed before me, his eyes burning with desire.
01:24:08Are we not sleeping tonight?
01:24:12No sleep.
01:24:13He pulled me by the back of my head and kissed me deeply.
01:24:20By the time the red candles burned out, I was lying on his chest, listening to his racing heartbeat.
01:24:26Outside the window, the moon had slipped behind the clouds.
01:24:30The next morning, I woke up in his arms.
01:24:34Good morning.
01:24:37Good morning, sweetheart.
01:24:40He froze for a second, then held me even tighter.
01:24:45The sunlight streamed in.
01:24:47Everything was perfect.
01:24:49Under my leadership, Gibson Group had gotten fully back on track.
01:24:53I reorganized the management, cleaned up all corruption,
01:24:57and the company was thriving.
01:24:59Everything was heading in the best direction.
01:25:02I had finally escaped the dark past and embraced my brand new life.
01:25:07Life was peaceful and sweet.
01:25:10In the second year of our marriage, I became pregnant with our child.
01:25:14Leo canceled soil unnecessary work.
01:25:17Stayed by my side day and day.
01:25:19And took good care of me.
01:25:22His eyes full of tenderness and expectation.
01:25:30Baby, daddy's been waiting for you.
01:25:33Come to us safely.
01:25:34Our baby girl was born safely.
01:25:36I named her Belinda Marsh.
01:25:39Taking my surname.
01:25:41Representing that I had grown up against all odds from an orphan.
01:25:45And finally gained light and fulfillment.
01:25:49The Senyon gently fall.
01:25:50We held our little daughter at home.
01:25:53Worn Mayan peaceful.
01:25:54The rest of our lives, we I and home.
01:25:57Isho jank with those I the guach.
01:25:59And syncfousness was the eternal theme.
01:26:01With you and our baby, this is the greatest happiness in my life.
01:26:05From being alone, to having my beloved and family, I had finally become who I wanted to be.
01:26:10Had no regrets in this life.
