Short filmTranscript
00:00New York's ultimate playboy. He made it clear. No strings attached. Ever.
00:06But every girl in the city still wants a piece of it.
00:09Because if he's happy, you get a mansion.
00:12If he's bored, you get a million dollar egg giveaway.
00:17The whole city laughed at me. They called me the most pathetic trophy wife.
00:21Everyone thought I'd endure this forever.
00:23Until Xavier brought a college student named Kayla home.
00:27She was plain, but she broke his one month dating curse.
00:38Xavier gave me two choices.
00:40One, accept an open marriage and live with Kaylee.
00:43Two, a clean divorce. Half his assets and we're even.
00:46From now on, his friends watched like it was a reality show.
00:50They bet I'd stay a puppet and just take it.
00:59But I didn't hesitate. I chose the latter.
01:02In my past life, I chose to endure.
01:04But Kaylee just kept pushing.
01:06She blocked him from touching me or giving me anything.
01:09I died alone while she had it all.
01:13Even when Xavier died, his will didn't mention my name.
01:16Kaylee controlled every cent he left behind.
01:20I kept the title of Mrs. Sterling, but I was lonely for 50 years.
01:25This time, I'm done with the fairy tale.
01:30This time, I'm just taking the money and leaving.
01:32I took the divorce agreement, read it for the last time, and was about to sign.
01:36Sienna, think carefully. Once you sign this, there's no going back.
01:40My hand didn't shake. I signed it with a sharp stroke.
01:42I'm packing my bags now, I said coldly.
01:46In my last life, I thought Kaylee was just a phase.
01:50I thought we had some real love after all these years.
01:53What a joke.
02:01He and Kaylee lived happily ever after.
02:09While I stayed in that house like a useless ghost.
02:15Until my final days, I heard them whispering in the hospital.
02:18Xavier admitted he framed me for that affair.
02:20He even hired the man to be in my bed.
02:34I was just bored of her.
02:36I needed a reason to keep her under my thumb.
02:39So that was the truth.
02:40No wonder he never believed my desperate explanations.
02:43Because he was the one who wrote the script.
02:45He didn't love me, but he trapped me for 50 years.
02:48He could have let me go, but he chose to destroy me slowly.
02:51I looked at his face.
02:53Young, handsome and cold.
02:55I felt no more love, only a wave of burning hate.
03:00Xavier stared at the papers, frozen in shock.
03:03Suddenly, the whispering at the door stopped.
03:06My noble in-laws burst in, glowing with joy.
03:09Younger is better?
03:10Look at all that energy.
03:12My father-in-law, who always hated me, was all smiles.
03:16He shot me a look like I was garbage.
03:21Finally, the dead weight is gone.
03:24Years of marriage and not even one heir.
03:27Don't say that, uncle.
03:29I'm not really that much younger than Auntie Sianna.
03:31Actually, I'm already pregnant.
03:32It's still early, so I kept it a secret.
03:35Same old insults.
03:37Same disgusting drama.
03:39For years, I gave my everything to the Sterling Group just to be a useful wife.
03:46At night, I had to serve my picky in-laws.
03:53I'm only 30, but I already have gray hair.
03:58I really have aged.
04:04I went to my room to pack my tiny suitcase.
04:08I was already planning my first vacation with the cash.
04:12I didn't notice Xavier following me in.
04:15It's late.
04:15You don't have to leave tonight.
04:19My west side villa is empty.
04:21Stay there.
04:22I'll come visit you when I have time.
04:24Sianna, I know you love me.
04:25Stop playing games.
04:27But the title, I can't give you that anymore.
04:30I won't let my child be born a bastard.
04:32I didn't say a word.
04:34I grabbed my bag and walked right past him.
04:38I have nothing to say to you.
04:40I'm actually happy we're finally divorcing.
04:42If you have a heart, just pay me what you owe.
04:55The cold night wind couldn't put out the fire in my heart.
05:10Xavier's efficiency was high.
05:11As always, I woke up with $3 billion in my bank account.
05:15Step one, take the money and book New York's most elite private club.
05:19I booked the ultimate full body spa and a total makeover.
05:23The tired woman with gray hair was gone, replaced by a blonde with sharp, fierce eyes.
05:29Fresh out of the makeover, I got a call from my bestie, Jolene.
05:32Sianna, are you and Xavier crazy?
05:34It's everywhere.
05:36What happened?
05:37I asked lazily.
05:38Check the news.
05:39Xavier is at a gala with that girl.
05:42He told the press she is his only wife.
05:44He's planning a wedding right now.
05:47Jolene's voice dropped, sounding worried.
05:50Babe, are you okay?
05:51The public recognition I craved for half my life,
05:54Xavier just gave it all to someone else.
05:57I'm fine.
05:58Because we're already divorced.
06:00D-divorced?
06:03Jolene stuttered, but I didn't explain.
06:05I just gave a soft, cold laugh.
06:07She saw me love Xavier for 10 years, sacrificing my soul.
06:11I used to be like a dog, begging for his crumbs of love.
06:14You free tonight?
06:15Meet me at the bar.
06:16Drinks are on me.
06:21In New York's most elite lounge, the table was covered best wine and champagne.
06:25Hotmail models crowded around me, pouring my wine.
06:28Jolene stared at me.
06:30Her jaw on the floor.
06:31Holy shit, you've really moved on.
06:34I used to count every penny to prove I wasn't greedy.
06:37Now, I caught my reflection in the glass.
06:40The blonde hair and custom couture felt strange, yet familiar.
06:44Jolene raised her glass and tasted me.
06:46This is the Ivy League genius I remember, she cried.
06:50You could have crushed Sterling Global if you started your own firm.
06:53You were their slave for 10 years.
06:55This cash isn't even enough.
06:58It wasn't just 10 years.
06:59It was an entire lifetime.
07:01In my past life, I built his empire into a global powerhouse.
07:05But in the end, I couldn't even afford a bottle of painkillers.
07:08I was kicked out by Kaylee's kids and died in a frozen dumpster.
07:12My life's work became a gift for her and her children.
07:16I downed my drink, the liquid igniting my soul.
07:19Let's see if they can survive without me.
07:21I'm going to show them exactly what I'm capable of.
07:25The news of my new firm hit New York overnight.
07:28Some saw an opportunity and rushed to invest.
07:31But most were just waiting to watch me fail.
07:33The tabloids called my move reckless and pathetic.
07:36I swiped past the headlines with a cold smile.
07:39Then, my phone rang.
07:41It was Xavier.
07:42Sienna, stop playing games.
07:44Your little startup won't last a week in this market.
07:48I kept your old desk open.
07:50Just come back.
07:51I don't need your advice, Mr. Sterling, I replied.
07:53A long silence.
07:54Can't you just understand?
07:56I found true love.
07:58Why waste time on a tiny firm?
08:00Stay at Sterling Global.
08:02That Southside merger you were handling.
08:04I hung up on him.
08:06Of course, he just missed his favorite tool.
08:09Southside merger was a total beast.
08:11It took me six months of blood and sweat to nail it.
08:13Without me, Sterling Global has no clue how to handle it.
08:17Back then, I was the VP.
08:18But my salary was only $3,000.
08:21We're family.
08:22My noble father-in-law would say,
08:24Don't be so greedy about money.
08:26I was naive enough to think it was a test.
08:28Now I see I was just elite, dirt-cheap labor.
08:31The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
08:34In the past, I carried Sterling Global on my back.
08:37This time, even if my new firm can't take it all,
08:40I'll hand-deliver those deals to their biggest rivals.
08:44Xavier slammed his phone onto the floor in a rage.
08:47He was used to my absolute obedience.
08:49Now, my cold reprojection left him humiliated.
08:53His assistant walked in with a mountain of files.
08:57Xavier stared at them, totally clueless.
09:00Years of slacking off had left him completely out of his depth.
09:04Kaylee followed him in, holding his hand with fake sympathy.
09:08Xavier, don't overwork yourself.
09:10Let me help you.
09:14You're young and inexperienced.
09:16Xavier said, hesitate.
09:17Kaylee's eyes turned red.
09:18She looked hurt.
09:19Sienna was the VP.
09:21Why can't I do it?
09:22Xavier almost said, because Sienna was a finance genius.
09:26But one look at those tears, and his logic vanished.
09:29He went soft and nodded.
09:32Fine.
09:33You start tomorrow.
09:34Kaylee smiled through her tears and hugged him tight.
09:40I just care about you so much.
09:43You've lost weight.
09:49My firm was crushing it in six months.
09:57Kaylee tried every petty trick to stop me, but I handled them all with a smirk.
10:02My New York network was light years ahead of hers.
10:04My old team at Sterling was dying to jump Shep.
10:08Kaylee made their lives a total living hell.
10:11I told them, don't quit just yet.
10:13Give me a little parting gift first.
10:16Kaylee thought losing a few people was fine.
10:19She didn't know they were the company's lifeblood.
10:23Their projects failed one by one.
10:26Their stock price tanked.
10:29But my team?
10:31We were winning.
10:32I stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, watching my team.
10:36Celebration at Delmonado's tonight.
10:38Steaks and champagne on me.
10:39You're the gold, boss!
10:41We walked out of the lobby like champions.
10:47But there it was.
10:49A familiar black Rolls Royce.
10:51The Rolls Royce door opened, and Xavier stepped out.
10:55He waved, like he still owned me.
10:58I kept walking, eyes forward, ignoring him.
11:03His assistant blocked my path.
11:05Xavier caught up, his face twisted with annoyance.
11:10Sienna, what is this?
11:12Didn't you see me?
11:15You've really grown some teeth lately, haven't you?
11:18I looked at him with total indifference.
11:23Is there a problem, Mr. Sterling?
11:26He choked on my coldness, but cut to the chase.
11:29Shut down your little firm.
11:30Come back to Sterling.
11:32I almost laughed at his sheer audacity.
11:34He took my smile as a sign of weakness and softened his voice.
11:38Sienna, I'm exhausted.
11:39Stop playing hard to get.
11:41He sighed, acting like he was making a huge sacrifice.
11:46If you're jealous of Kaylee, I'll move her out.
11:50I'm not playing games, Mr. Sterling.
11:52I snapped.
11:52We are divorced.
11:53Stay out of my life.
11:58His patient snapped, and he raised his voice.
12:01I've already made concessions.
12:03What more do you want?
12:05The company needs you.
12:07Stop holding out like this.
12:08It's like talking to a brick wall.
12:10Does he think the entire world revolves around him?
12:13Mr. Sterling, go find your perfect wife, Kaylee.
12:16I'm an outsider.
12:18I don't clean up your messes anymore.
12:21He didn't even flinch.
12:23He looked understanding.
12:26Is it about the title?
12:27The marriage?
12:28Fine.
12:29After Kaylee has the baby, I'll consider it.
12:30But keep it a secret.
12:31I won't hurt her feelings.
12:33I stared at him.
12:34My voice cold as ice.
12:35I'll say it one last time.
12:37Get lost.
12:38I don't want to remarry you.
12:39Not in this life.
12:40Not ever.
12:41Xavier's face twisted into a blind rage.
12:44Sienna, don't push your luck.
12:45This is New York.
12:47I can crush your pathetic little firm in a heartbeat.
12:49Suddenly, a smooth, lazy voice cuts through the air.
12:52Wow, that's a lot of talk, Mr. Sterling.
12:54Harassing my fiancรฉ?
12:56Threatening her in public?
13:01Xavier turned.
13:02His smug look vanishing instantly.
13:04It was Liam Knight, his rival since birth.
13:07Heir to the Knight Empire.
13:08Liam walked over, lazy and confident.
13:10He pulled me close, wrapping a steady arm around my waist.
13:13He leaned his head on my shoulder, acting clingy.
13:16Babe, I've been waiting in the garage forever.
13:18Why are you standing here listening to dogs bark?
13:20Sienna, explain this.
13:23Are you betraying me?
13:24I get it.
13:26You're just using Liam to make me jealous.
13:28His face twisted into a delusional smirk.
13:31Liam gave a huge, dramatic roll of his eyes.
13:33Stop talking to idiots, honey.
13:35It drops your IQ.
13:36Stop right there!
13:37Xavier screamed, trying to chase us.
13:39But the fury and weeks of stress finally hit him at once.
13:42A sharp, stabbing pain ripped through his gut.
13:44Ah, Sienna, help.
13:46It hurts so bad.
13:47I didn't stop.
13:48I didn't even slow my pace.
13:50I didn't look back once.
13:51Behind me, his assistant was screaming in panic.
13:57Liam didn't give me a chance to argue.
13:59He tossed me into the seat of his flashy red Ferrari.
14:03The engine roared as we tore out of the parking garage.
14:07He whipped off his shades, a smirk playing on his lips.
14:10So, how was my acting?
14:11Pretty convincing, right?
14:12I stayed silent, watching the city blur past the window.
14:15Hey, Sienna, don't be a buzzbill.
14:18He teased.
14:18He nodged me gently with his elbow.
14:20I just saved your skin.
14:22How are you gonna thank me?
14:23I looked at him, my face expressionless.
14:25He shrugged, clearly not feeling my cold reaction.
14:28He didn't push it, just turned up the music and sped off.
14:31The next day, Xavier dominated the headlines of every New York papers.
14:34Sterling's CO hospitalized after public meltdown.
14:37The front page featured a grainy juphograph of him being rushed into an ambulance.
14:41Society wits mocked Xavier for his public affair, saying he got exactly what he deserved.
14:46Others wagered he'd come crawling back for a remarriage, whispering that Kaylee couldn't hold a candle to me.
14:51No more, no more, hit the road, yeah.
14:54And don't you come back no more.
15:05Shut up!
15:11Why did you go see her?
15:15You promised I was the only one!
15:22Stop screaming.
15:25It was for the company.
15:29The company?
15:31Is the company more important than me?
15:34Swear it.
15:36Swear you'll never see Sienna again.
15:39Ever!
15:43Shut up!
15:45If you hadn't ruined the business, I wouldn't have to beg her!
15:53Kayla!
15:54You are completely out of line.
15:57Xavier is sick.
15:59Why are you acting like a maniac?
16:01If Sienna were here, she'd be taking care of him.
16:04She wouldn't be throwing a tantrum like a child.
16:28I'm...
16:29Sienna!
16:30Sienna!
16:31Always her!
16:32I'm not a maid!
16:34We have servants for that!
16:37And don't forget,
16:40I'm carrying the heir to this family.
16:43How dare you talk back!
16:47Get out!
16:48All of you, out!
16:50Get out now!
16:54Xavier collapsed back into the sheets.
16:57A muffled, broken sob escaped the covers.
17:01For the first time in his life,
17:02he felt true regret.
17:04He regretted letting Sienna go.
17:06With Sienna,
17:08the company was a well-oiled machine.
17:10The house was perfect.
17:12Life was effortless.
17:15He only had to play the great CEO.
17:18But now,
17:19Kaylee filled the office with her useless relatives.
17:22Projects were failing.
17:24Red lights everywhere.
17:27By then,
17:28his best people had already walked out.
17:30Even his parents did nothing but complain.
17:33It felt like years ago
17:34when the firm was bankrupt.
17:36Back then,
17:37he could just turn around and find her.
17:39She'd smile and say,
17:41Don't worry.
17:42I'm here.
17:46Now,
17:47he turned around,
17:48and there was no one.
18:01The night group contract was officially signed.
18:04My biggest deal since leaving Sterling.
18:06I finally had a foothole.
18:08Liam signed with a flourish
18:09and tossed the pen aside.
18:12To our partnership,
18:14Ms. Vance.
18:15Dinner tonight?
18:19Rain check.
18:20His smile faded.
18:22He leaned over the desk,
18:24locking eyes with me.
18:25Sienna,
18:26how long are you going to keep running?
18:28Don't act like you don't know my intentions.
18:31Since the garage scene,
18:32Liam had been relentless.
18:37Flowers,
18:38gifts,
18:39endless invites.
18:40It was too intense to ignore.
18:47But I kept my distance.
18:55Liam,
18:56if this is just a game
18:58to spite Xavier,
18:59I'm out.
19:00I'm not that bored,
19:02Sienna.
19:05The truth is,
19:06I've actually fallen for you.
19:12Give me a chance.
19:14One dinner.
19:15My treat.
19:17I'll tell you a secret
19:18about Xavier Sterling.
19:21The refusal on the tip of my tongue dissolved.
19:24Fine.
19:34The receptionist burst in,
19:36looking frantic.
19:37I'm so sorry, boss.
19:39I couldn't stop him.
19:41I waved her off,
19:42staring at the uninvited guests.
19:44Xavier sat in a wheelchair,
19:45leading the pack.
19:46He looked like a ghost,
19:47sailor skin,
19:48sunten eyes.
19:49Sienna,
19:50I'm here to take you home.
19:52I felt zero pity,
19:53only pure irritation.
19:54I picked up the phone
19:55and dialed security.
19:56Security,
19:57get these trespassers out,
19:58now.
19:59Xavier froze.
20:00He didn't expect me to be this cold.
20:02His eyes turned red instantly.
20:03Sienna,
20:04how can you do this to me?
20:05I've realized it now.
20:06We're perfect for each other.
20:08I'm divorcing Kayla.
20:10Just come back to me.
20:11In my past life,
20:12this weakness would have broken me.
20:14Now,
20:14it was just noise.
20:15I feel nothing for you,
20:17Xavier.
20:18Who you marry or divorce
20:19is none of my business.
20:20I'm done being your slave.
20:22He looked devastated.
20:23Like I'd slapped him.
20:25Was our marriage a lie?
20:27Not even one chance?
20:29When he saw my cold gaze,
20:31his grief turned to malice.
20:34Sienna,
20:34don't you forget.
20:35He hissed.
20:36I paid for your tuition.
20:38You wouldn't have a degree without me.
20:40Now your wings are strong
20:42and you just dump me?
20:43Save Sterling Global.
20:44Five years.
20:45That's all I ask.
20:46He finally played his last card,
20:47the gratitude card.
20:49I went silent.
20:49I hesitated for a second.
20:51Then,
20:51a warm hand covered mine.
20:53Liam was standing right beside me.
20:55Xavier,
20:55you have no soul.
20:57Using a pathetic lie
20:58to blackrail her?
21:00Disgusting.
21:01Liam?
21:02What are you doing here?
21:03Liam let out a cold,
21:04sharp laugh.
21:05I'm glad I'm here.
21:06Otherwise,
21:06I'd never know
21:07that you stole credit
21:08from my charity
21:09to blackmail the woman I love.
21:11You're lying!
21:12Shut up!
21:13Xavier screamed,
21:14panicking.
21:15I paid for her tuition!
21:16It was me!
21:18Is that so?
21:19Liam smirked,
21:19pulling out a stack of documents.
21:22Sienna,
21:22look for yourself.
21:23These are my transfer records
21:24to your account
21:25from high school
21:26through college,
21:27every single cent.
21:29The papers laid out
21:30every transaction,
21:31clear as day.
21:32The dates and amounts
21:33matched my scholarship perfectly.
21:35Recipient high school grant,
21:36Beneficiary,
21:37Sienna Vance.
21:38In my past life,
21:39and this one,
21:39I believed it was Xavier.
21:41Freshman year,
21:42he claimed he was
21:42my anonymous donor.
21:43Out of gratitude,
21:44I gave him my loyalty.
21:46Because of that lie,
21:47I fell for him.
21:48I let him trample my dignity
21:49because I thought I owed him.
21:51It was all a lie
21:52from the very beginning.
21:53Xavier was still struggling,
21:55stiff with denial.
21:56I was by your side
21:57for ten years!
21:59Even without the money,
22:00you owe me one last favor.
22:02Typical.
22:02He was playing
22:03the emotional card again.
22:04Have you forgotten
22:05how much you used to love me?
22:07I'll forgive your affair.
22:08Let's just go back.
22:09I almost laughed.
22:10The audacity
22:11was mind-blowing.
22:12Even now,
22:13he was trying
22:14to gaslight me.
22:15Xavier,
22:16do you really think
22:17I'm that stupid?
22:18My voice was low,
22:19turning the air to ice.
22:21That night,
22:21in a stranger's bed,
22:23you set it up.
22:25You were the one
22:26who drugged my drink.
22:27Xavier's face
22:28went paper-white
22:29immensely.
22:30He gasped for air,
22:31unable to utter
22:31a single word.
22:32I shook my head,
22:33my last bit of pity
22:34turning to ash.
22:35My biggest regret
22:36is ever being
22:37with a liar like you.
22:38No.
22:40It wasn't like that.
22:42You love me!
22:44You're supposed to me!
22:47Finally,
22:48security burst
22:49through his bodyguards.
22:50They rolled him
22:51in his wheelchair
22:52out the front door.
22:53Finally,
22:54the world was quiet.
22:56The conference room
22:56fell into a heavy silence.
22:58Liam wouldn't look at me,
23:00staring at the carpet.
23:02Actually,
23:03I have a thing
23:04at the office.
23:04I should go.
23:05Wait.
23:06I caught his wrist.
23:08Didn't you say
23:09you wanted dinner?
23:11He jumped like a cat
23:12whose tail had been
23:13stepped on.
23:14I'm not trying
23:14to blackmail you.
23:15Don't get the wrong idea.
23:17You don't have to date me
23:18just because I paid
23:19for school.
23:19Seeing his stubborn,
23:21shy face,
23:22my heart doinely cleared.
23:23I couldn't but let out
23:24a soft laugh.
23:26I know.
23:27I kept my grip
23:28on his wrist,
23:29not letting go.
23:30I just...
23:31really, really
23:32want to have dinner
23:33with you.
23:34So, Mr. Knight,
23:35are you free?
23:37Under my gaze,
23:38his face turned
23:39a deep crimson.
23:41Finally,
23:42he gave a tiny,
23:43subtle nod.

25:23Oh, no!
25:25Oh, no!
