Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Married to Lucian for three years, I'm less his wife than a breathing sex toy.
00:00:08Scream for me.
00:00:11But I'm mute. How am I supposed to speak?
00:00:16Call me brother. Say it.
00:00:19You weren't always like this. You used to be the brother who would wipe my ears.
00:00:26Come on, Sarah. At least pretend you're enjoying it.
00:00:30Or do I need to remind you how you used to tremble in my arms?
00:00:33You're like a dead fish.
00:00:51You went back to her? Every time. Every time we fight, you run to that mute to punish me.
00:01:03See that?
00:01:10Remember your place. You're the Cross family's adopted daughter. I married you to fulfill grandfather's last wish.
00:01:15Don't love me. I'll take care of you for life. As a brother. Understand?
00:01:22You told me not to love you, so what if I saw it? My feelings don't matter to you.
00:01:27I'll make breakfast.
00:01:28I'll make breakfast.
00:01:30Lucian?
00:01:41What's the rush? You almost broke your leg.
00:01:46Your mom has arrived.
00:01:59Mom.
00:02:02Take this.
00:02:05Here we go again.
00:02:06Every visit.
00:02:08Mrs. Cross's greeting is always the same.
00:02:11Contraceptive pills.
00:02:12Are you gonna take it?
00:02:13Mom is right.
00:02:14We shouldn't have another child.
00:02:16He never changed.
00:02:17This gentle touch ruffling my hair.
00:02:20It's exactly the same as when he turned his back on me that day.
00:02:24The procedure is scheduled.
00:02:26Get rid of that lump of cells.
00:02:28Now.
00:02:32I want to leave our children behind.
00:02:35You think trash like you is fit to bear a cross child?
00:02:40This family is already cursed with one mute defect.
00:02:43You want to spawn another?
00:02:45See?
00:02:46He can't even bear to look at you.
00:02:49That's enough, mother.
00:02:51Don't waste the doctor's time.
00:02:53Maybe.
00:02:54I was just hoping for too much.
00:02:59Good girl.
00:03:02You have work today, right?
00:03:04I'm heading that way.
00:03:04I'll drop you off.
00:03:09Don't forget to eat.
00:03:11You love this.
00:03:13Since when do you say no?
00:03:19I don't like it anymore.
00:03:23Don't like it.
00:03:24Two days ago you stood in the rain for an hour waiting for that bakery to open.
00:03:28For this cake.
00:03:30And now you're telling me you don't like it?
00:03:38Have you forgotten who you are?
00:03:41Do you need me to remind you?
00:03:44Forget it?
00:03:45Forget it?
00:03:46How could I possibly forget?
00:03:47Lucian?
00:03:49Look who I've brought back.
00:03:53Grandpa, where did this monkey come from?
00:03:57I found a girl for you.
00:03:59Do you want her?
00:04:00I don't want such an ugly younger sister.
00:04:03Eat up.
00:04:04How can you be my little sister if you're this skinny?
00:04:12Do you remember?
00:04:13Good girl.
00:04:14Be my sister.
00:04:15And I will decide everything about you.
00:04:17Including what you like and dislike.
00:04:21Now swallow it.
00:04:23Just like you swallowed every bite of food I gave you back then.
00:04:26I normally does the same cake.
00:04:28I can't just tell him taste of me don't like the offense and I quit check.
00:04:31This tape was so cool for it upon us.
00:04:39So you really are with this mute?
00:04:49You're indeed with this mute person.
00:04:51Get off the car and go inside to start work.
00:04:56What are you doing?
00:04:57This place gets dirty once she sits here.
00:05:00So I'll disinfect it.
00:05:05Alright, stop wearing such a gloomy face.
00:05:08Worst I bring up you bring them out of the making you leave one hurt.
00:05:11Lilian, I told you.
00:05:13As long as you stay with me, I will ensure you are well provided too.
00:05:17If you never marry, I will support you for the rest of your life.
00:05:20But I was with you first.
00:05:22Well, fine.
00:05:23But you have to give me some compensation.
00:05:26Name it.
00:05:27What do you want?
00:05:30I'm tired of driving that Ferrari.
00:05:33Buy me a Maserati.
00:05:37Alright, I promise you.
00:05:40And, you are not allowed to see that mute for a month.
00:05:48Alright.
00:05:52And you're not even angry after all that?
00:05:55Clara, I can't go on anymore.
00:05:57Sarah, you still have me.
00:05:58If you're not happy, I can take you away anytime.
00:06:00Away from that Lucian.
00:06:02Clara, I can't hold on anymore.
00:06:05My little mute has been so naughty today.
00:06:08It seems the punishment last time wasn't harsh enough.
00:06:26My little mute was so disobedient today.
00:06:30It seems my last lesson wasn't harsh enough.
00:06:42I'm not throwing a tantrum.
00:06:49Having a tantrum?
00:06:50You're really doing this?
00:06:51Since you have someone you like, just let me go.
00:06:56Let me think.
00:06:58Who did you see today?
00:06:59Clara, right?
00:07:01She must have put ideas in your head.
00:07:03That's the only reason you dare think this.
00:07:06It has nothing to do with her.
00:07:08I chose to leave on my own.
00:07:13Fine.
00:07:14We can divorce.
00:07:15But you leave with nothing.
00:07:17And you pay back every single cent the Cross family has ever spent on you.
00:07:22The day you pay it all back is the day I let you go.
00:07:34What is this?
00:07:36All the money you ever gave me is in this account.
00:07:39I never touched a single dollar of it.
00:07:44I'm not talking about the pocket money I gave you.
00:07:47I'm talking about everything.
00:07:49The cost of raising you, your education, your clothes,
00:07:52the food you ate under this roof for over 20 years.
00:07:55Every last cent.
00:07:57Then I'll pay it back.
00:07:59Slowly.
00:08:00Pay it back?
00:08:02You're with what?
00:08:03The only thing waiting for you out there is starvation.
00:08:06Tell me, how do you plan to pay back a fortune?
00:08:09If we divorce, you can marry Lillian.
00:08:11You can be with her forever.
00:08:13Isn't that what you want?
00:08:16Enough!
00:08:18We are not done until that debt is paid.
00:08:22Not a second before.
00:08:23What?
00:08:37Since you want to settle accounts.
00:08:41Tonight, we'll settle them properly.
00:08:45Yes, that's the sound.
00:08:49My little mute.
00:08:51So quiet everywhere else.
00:08:53But in bed, you can't lie.
00:09:08I almost forgot today's gift.
00:09:10It's engraved with my name.
00:09:12Do you like it?

00:33:56you
00:34:07you
00:34:15Mrs. Cross, I'm afraid we must close
00:34:19Please, there's no rush
00:34:21Before you go, Mr. Cross had a cake kept here for you
00:34:24The day is almost over, but perhaps you could still have a slice
00:34:27Or at least make a wish
00:34:31Happy birthday, Serena
00:35:01Mrs. Cross, are you alright?
00:35:09We're here
00:35:16Good night, babe. I'll miss you
00:35:29Where is she?
00:35:36Mr. Cross, you're very late.
00:35:42Mrs. Cross waited for five hours, alone.
00:35:45Then she ate the entire birthday cake you left for her, even the candle wax.
00:35:50After that, she was sick, very sad.
00:35:53She left looking go ghostly.
00:36:00She left looking go ghostly.
00:36:03She left looking go ghostly.
00:36:08Mrs. Cross.
00:36:09Mrs. Cross.
00:36:10Mrs. Cross.
00:36:11Mrs. Cross.
00:36:27Serena?
00:36:31Mrs. Cross.
00:36:35Today I lost track of time.
00:36:48What the hell is wrong with you?
00:36:50In your eyes, I'm lower than a paid escort, aren't I?
00:36:54I deserve everyone's ridicule.
00:36:57Mrs. Cross.
00:36:58What did you just say?
00:36:59Say that again!
00:37:00Mrs. Cross.
00:37:02Taught me?
00:37:03Self aberration?
00:37:04These mocks have been screaming it for me for years!
00:37:06Who taught you to talk about yourself like that?
00:37:09Who?
00:37:09Who?
00:37:14It seems I've been too lenient.
00:37:17You've forgotten who you belong to.
00:37:27If you can't learn to behave, you can reflect on your mistakes in the darkness.
00:37:50A worthless newt daring to touch my roses!
00:37:53You need to remember your place.
00:37:55Stay here and think about what you've done.
00:37:57I'm never going to be able to die.
00:38:27Adrian!
00:38:30Adrian!
00:38:31Sarah's not answering her phone.
00:38:33All night. I have a bad feeling.
00:38:36Can you go check on her, please?
00:38:37What? Where is she?
00:38:43Serena?
00:38:51Serena?
00:38:53Are you in there?
00:38:59It's alright. I've got you.
00:39:01You're safe now. I'm taking you to the hospital.
00:39:03Just hold on.
00:39:06This time,
00:39:07I'm getting you out of here.
00:39:09I promise.
00:39:10This defense project can move into
00:39:13active development.
00:39:15All those in favor of
00:39:17Lupien Cross's defense project,
00:39:19raise your hands.
00:39:31Mom, you don't need to care so much about that project.
00:39:34If Lucian wants it,
00:39:35let him have him.
00:39:37Ah!
00:39:47Idiot.
00:39:47If he secures the defense contract,
00:39:49his authority inside the group will rise again.
00:39:51Who do you think I'm doing this for?
00:39:52You are my son.
00:39:53He is only my stepson.
00:39:54Then maybe we should make his helicopter go bang.
00:39:56I want him ruined,
00:39:57not conveniently dead.
00:39:58The people who deserve to die have already died.
00:40:09Remind the directors.
00:40:11Tomorrow, during the vote,
00:40:12they'd better remember where they stand.
00:40:14I want him.
00:40:31Boss, what do we do next?
00:40:34Go home.
00:40:35Home?
00:40:45You're awake.
00:40:54You don't need that.
00:40:58Recently,
00:40:59I learned some sign language.
00:41:04Adrian,
00:41:06my baby?
00:41:07Easy.
00:41:08It was only a threatened miscarriage,
00:41:10but the baby is safe.
00:41:14From now on,
00:41:15you must rest.
00:41:16No more shocks,
00:41:18no more strain,
00:41:19or...
00:41:21Do you...
00:41:24like me?
00:41:27Serena,
00:41:28have you ever thought about leaving Lucian?
00:41:31I can help you.
00:41:39Do you have a crush on me?
00:41:53Stay calm.
00:41:55Slow your breathing.
00:41:59My child.
00:42:01My child.
00:42:02My child.
00:42:02The fetus is safe.
00:42:05The heartbeat has stayed normal.
00:42:12What are you two talking about?
00:42:16Lucian,
00:42:18Serena's condition right now.
00:42:20Adrian,
00:42:22are you and Serena very close?
00:42:25Lucian,
00:42:26Adrian saved me.
00:42:31How touching.
00:42:33Should I nominate him for a hippopathic prize?
00:42:37An ethics award for a doctor who specializes in caring for married women?
00:42:43Perhaps I should donate a hospital wing in his name.
00:42:47The Adrian Witker Center for Third-Party Care has a nice ringtone.
00:42:52She has claustrophobia.
00:42:54You never should have locked her away.
00:42:59If you want to, instance.
00:43:02Her heart rate hit 140 while she was struggling.
00:43:08Since you know my wife's body so well,
00:43:11teach me how to be her husband.
00:43:13Lucian,
00:43:14do you even know Serena is pro-
00:43:19I'm sorry.
00:43:21Thank you for today.
00:43:22Please go.
00:43:24I'm fine.
00:43:25Please.
00:43:27Serena.
00:43:47I asked him to help me.
00:43:49If you're angry, be angry at me.
00:43:56Begged?
00:43:57With what silent prayer?
00:44:06Does it hurt?
00:44:09I lost control.
00:44:10You don't know how scared I was when I came home and couldn't find you.
00:44:14You know I can't bear anyone else touching you.
00:44:19Especially here.
00:44:31Don't bother.
00:44:32It won't kill me.
00:44:33Serena.
00:44:35I need you close.
00:44:37Can you stay with me?
00:44:41My head hurts.
00:44:44My whole body hurts.
00:44:47The night you were in that dark room, I couldn't sleep at all.
00:44:53Serena, I'm sorry.
00:44:57I knew my silent girl was too soft-hearted.
00:45:11Serena, are you all right?
00:45:14Our diligent Dr. Adrian is making rounds.
00:45:17If he opens the door now, what do you think he'll see?
00:45:23Not here.
00:45:25He'll hear us.
00:45:27I have a fever.
00:45:29Maybe staying close to you is the only way I cool down.
00:45:37Be still, or he'll knock again.
00:45:45Just stay with me until the fever breaks.
00:45:53You're trembling.
00:45:58He's gone.
00:45:59out he's aah problem.
00:46:00No, he's dead.
00:46:06Whatever night did that.
00:46:10A might of a bitter old night.える
00:46:12ہے. The
00:46:29hour of a slow take isacaksın. The
00:46:32Otherwise, tonight I stay right here
00:46:34and everyone can keep wondering what happened.
00:46:58Adrian, I need to tell you something.
00:47:23Your favorite, truffle foie gras.
00:47:26Throw it away. I'm allergic.
00:47:28Nonsense. Kiwi is what you're allergic to.
00:47:31You haven't come home for dinner in three days.
00:47:34Come back tonight. Have dinner with your brother.
00:47:36You want Simmers, Muncie, Rowland, for Gother.
00:47:38I'm busy. I have no time to play with you.
00:47:46I refuse to believe I can't make you come home for dinner.
00:47:55Do something for me.
00:48:01No much Sheridan Arbors. You can be best in one.
00:48:06You and the baby both look healthy. You can be discharged.
00:48:09Dr. Whitwiker, a patient needs you.
00:48:12You.
00:48:13Go on and get busy.
00:48:15I'll be fine on my own.
00:48:16I'll be fine on my own.

00:54:42the old man
00:54:43the old man left five percent of the shares to that mute woman and lucian's child in his will
00:54:48if that child is born lucian will hold more than ethan and me combined
00:54:54my ethan will be finished
00:54:58so i would rather be wrong a hundred times than let one chance survive
00:55:20tell me was she pregnant

00:55:34no
00:55:39please save my child
00:55:43We will do everything we can. Please trust us.
00:55:52Is there something else?
00:55:55Doctor, please do not tell the man outside that I am pregnant.
00:56:03Why? He seems to care about you.
00:56:06His family does not want this child. Neither does he.
00:56:10I have to protect my baby. This child is my only family.
00:56:18Alright. I understand.
00:56:26Mrs. Cross is out of immediate danger, but she hit her head.
00:56:29We need a brain CT to check for damage.
00:56:33Alright. Thank you.
00:56:37I understand.
00:56:51You are awake?
00:56:57Try this. I had someone make it especially for you.
00:57:02Lucian Cross, if you do not love me, why pretend to save me?
00:57:07Does watching me struggling make you feel powerful?
00:57:10This time I will not be fooled by your false tenders.
00:57:28You can sign again?
00:57:31I told you to get out. Did you not understand?
00:57:37Tell me, were you really not pregnant?
00:57:39No. Why would I carry your child? I already hate you enough.
00:57:44You hate me?
00:57:45I told. Get out. Understand.
00:57:51Because of me and divorce.
00:57:55Divorce?
00:58:01You do not love me. You only bring me pain. What is the point of keeping this marriage?
00:58:15Lucian, are you deaf?
00:58:18I heard you.
00:58:20When you are healed, we will get divorced.
00:58:28Bring Dorothea's watchbok to me.
00:58:44Good evening.
00:58:47I hear you are very good at educating the mistress of the house.
00:58:52It was a misunderstanding, Mr. Cross.
00:58:54It was Madam's order.
00:59:03Continue.
00:59:06Too late.
00:59:09What you did to Serena, you will repay a hundredfold.
00:59:17Stay awake.
00:59:20This has only begun.
00:59:25What are you going to do?
00:59:54Prepare the divorce egregement for me.
01:00:09Sir, the divorce agreement has been revised as you requested.
01:00:13Madam Serena will receive 50% of your assets and the vineyard in Napa Valley.
01:00:19But I do not understand.
01:00:21You clearly love her.
01:00:28Do you know why the roses Dorothea grows in the old house always bloom so vividly?
01:00:34When I was 19, I dug out a skeleton there.
01:00:39She was wearing the diamond necklace my father gave her.
01:00:43It was my mother.
01:00:50If she signs this agreement, she can at least walk out openly with half of my fortune.
01:00:57If I wait until those hyenas tear out my throat, there will not even be bones left for her.
01:01:07Sir, will you truly not tell Madam Serena that your closeness to Lillian was to protect her?
01:01:14When I can truly protect her, I will tell her everything.
01:01:18I only hope I still have that chance.
01:01:20Since you mentioned Lillian, I just remember something.
01:01:24Let someone accidentally leak the divorce to Dorothea.
01:01:30Remember, only Dorothea.
01:01:32Yes, sir.
01:01:46Lucy, I heard you got divorced.
01:01:50Was it because you are finally going to marry me?
01:01:53I knew I was in your heart.
01:01:55So Dorothea's dog hiding beside me is her.
01:01:59You?
01:02:00What exactly are you?
01:02:06Wasn't your divorce for me?
01:02:08Who told you I was divorced?
01:02:11Oh, I just heard it somewhere.
01:02:15Lucy, are you going to marry me or not?
01:02:24Hasn't my attitude all this time been obvious enough?
01:02:31I... I only...
01:02:32Lillian, you and my mother are rather close, aren't you?
01:02:37I... I only wanted to please your mother because I love you so much.
01:02:42Then fine. I will divorce her and I will give you the grandest wedding.
01:02:48Lucy, I knew you loved me most.
01:02:56Why, after truly divorcing Lucian, do I not feel the relief I imagined?
01:03:05What are you thinking about?
01:03:10Adrian, how is my baby?
01:03:14Your child is fine, but this is your brain CT.
01:03:17Please look at it.
01:03:21What does this mean?
01:03:22After the head injury, there are problems in your hippocampus.
01:03:26What will happen to me?
01:03:28The hippocampus manages memory.
01:03:31Once damaged, your memory may decline.
01:03:34And eventually, you may forget everyone and everything.
01:03:45Will I... eventually forget everything?
01:03:50It is possible.
01:03:51We will keep monitoring it.
01:03:54Maybe that is good.
01:03:57Then maybe I can finally forget how humbly I once loved you, Lucian.
01:04:02If you need anything, come to me anytime.
01:04:05I will walk you out.
01:04:12If I forget everything, what about my child?
01:04:15If I cannot remember my child, how will my child grow up?
01:04:21What is it?
01:04:22Adrian, this may be rude, but can you marry me?
01:04:27Serena, are you serious?
01:04:29I do not have many friends.
01:04:31If one day I forget my child, and cannot find my child, can you help me care for the baby?
01:04:38So you only want me to help raise your child?
01:04:41I will not treat you unfairly.
01:04:44Lucian gave me money in the divorce.
01:04:46I can give you all the property under my name.
01:04:50So it is only a transaction?
01:04:53Transaction? To hell with that transaction!
01:04:56We will raise this child.
01:05:04Prepare what you need in the next few days.
01:05:06Then we will get married.
01:05:24What is this?
01:05:26Can't you tell?
01:05:27Serena and Adrian are choosing rings.
01:05:29They are getting married.
01:05:32Do you never get tired of this trick?
01:05:34I know you are good at Photoshop.
01:05:37Photoshop, watch this.
01:05:39Adrian, which rings do you like? Do you want to try them all?
01:05:44I heard they are trying wedding gowns too.
01:05:47Lucy.
01:05:47Lucy.
01:05:48When will you give me our wedding?
01:05:52Lucy!
01:05:53Lucian!
01:05:53Where are you going?
01:05:57Find Serena Brooks' location immediately.
01:06:10Adrian, maybe we should not have a wedding?
01:06:14How can we not?
01:06:15That bastard Lucian never gave you a wedding.
01:06:18You always wanted to wear a gown, didn't you?
01:06:21This time you will marry beautifully and everyone will know you are my sister-in-law.
01:06:27Serena, you look even more beautiful in a wedding dress than I imagined.
01:06:34You f***!
01:06:47Are you that impatient? To marry another man?
01:06:51You are hurting me.
01:06:54You only know that you hurt.
01:06:57Do you know how much I hurt right now?
01:06:59Don't be hurt!
01:07:03Lucian, are you insane?
01:07:05She is my wife now!
01:07:08Who the hell is your wife?
01:07:10Have you registered?
01:07:11Have you swarmed before a priest?
01:07:13Get out of my way!
01:07:19Let go of me!
01:07:31Lucian!
01:07:32Stop!
01:07:33Stop for what?
01:07:34So you can go back to your lover?
01:07:36He is not my lover.
01:07:37We are divorced.
01:07:38My life is no longer yours to control.
01:07:42Slow down.
01:07:43You will get hurt.
01:07:45Get hurt?
01:07:47Aren't you the one who wants me dead?
01:07:49Serena, do you remember what he once told me?
01:07:52What did I say?
01:07:54You said you would only marry me in this life.
01:08:02Brother, get down!
01:08:04I told you, do not bother me.
01:08:11Grandpa said if you wear a flower crown, you're going to get married.
01:08:15When I grow up, I want to be your bride, big brother.
01:08:23Why don't you marry me, big brother, for the rest of life?
01:08:27So you have forgotten everything.
01:08:31If you have forgotten the vow completely, then we die together.
01:08:38Lucian, calm down.
01:08:40If we die together, when they dig us up a thousand years later,
01:08:44our bones will still be tangled together, won't they?
01:08:49Pull over this instant!
01:08:50Have you lost your mind?
01:08:52Insane.
01:08:53I have been insane since the day you demanded the divorce!
01:09:06Are you satisfied now?
01:09:16Now it seems even our bones cannot be tangled together.
01:09:30I-I don't know what to say.
01:09:42I-I don't know what to say.
01:09:44Serena, are you alright?
01:09:48Yes.
01:09:49You're alright.
01:09:51That's-
01:09:52Yes.
01:09:52Do you still remember Clara?
01:09:54Clara?
01:10:00Adrian, Clara's brother.
01:10:01I'm her brother.
01:10:04Yes, I'm Adrian.
01:10:05in. Where do I go? Sarah, let's go home. I am your husband. Why do I always feel like
01:10:27I've forgotten something? Where is Lucien? Why is it not home? No, Lucien and I are divorced.
01:10:34This is not my home, Lucien. What's wrong? Is the breakfast not to your taste?
01:10:46Serena and I divorced long ago. Whether she lives or dies is none of my business. I have
01:10:51no duty to help her. The Hippocapus is the Kurson system that manages rimming GE. Want damaged,
01:10:57memory will deteriorate. Then she will forget everyone and everything.
01:11:03Serena, your memory is fading. Write down everything here. These are the things you must never
01:11:11forget. You are divorced from Lucien. You are about to marry Adrienne. I said to Lucien,
01:11:19you will never forget. What are you doing? Adrienne, I forgot again. I have to write everything
01:11:26down. May I take a look? Perhaps you're just overthinking. Don't worry too much. Let's go out
01:11:42for a walk. Excuse me, sir. Do you know how to get to this restaurant? Sarah, wait for me a
01:11:49moment.
01:11:55Serena? Serena? Hi. How could you not know? I was supposed to go home. Could you walk me back?
01:12:11But, all right. I'll walk you home. Serena, you're already divorced from Lucy. What are you doing here?
01:12:19Me? Divorced? Who are you pretending to be innocent for? This is Lucy's in my home. Get out of here
01:12:25at once. Why all the commotion? Oh, it's you. Perfect timing. Lillian, how could you keep her outside?
01:12:33Let her come in and listen to your wedding plan with Lucien.
01:12:38Auntie, you've thought of everything.
01:12:46Can't press who's here.
01:12:50Lucien, look who's here.
01:12:52What are you doing here? This isn't a bi-cling. What are you doing here?
01:12:57Lucien, I don't see you.
01:12:58Is that how you treat a guest?
01:13:01Show Serena your wedding venue with Lillian and the guest list and beverage menu.
01:13:08Can't even hold things steady? Are you just jealous?
01:13:17Lucien, are you really getting married?
01:13:21Yes, I am.
01:13:23Lucien, did I do something wrong?
01:13:28What did you say?
01:13:30Then why did you leave me?
01:13:32Yes, you messed up!
01:13:34I'm done with you!
01:13:37So what are you still doing here?
01:13:39Get out! Go away!
01:13:41That's the way it should be.
01:13:48Lucien.
01:14:00Mr. Cross, please treat my fiancée with respect.
01:14:14Adrian, you just said that Serena is your fiancée.
01:14:18Yes, we're getting married next month.
01:14:23And she's pregnant.
01:14:27What did you say?
01:14:29Dare you say it again!
01:14:36We'll invite you to our child's birthday party next spring.
01:14:54All right, let's go ahead and finalize the wedding outfits.
01:15:04Lucien.
01:15:05My time is running out.
01:15:09Every sip of medicine I've taken these past six months has been laced with thallium salt.
01:15:16What?
01:15:18Doctor!
01:15:19It's no use.
01:15:20Listen to me.
01:15:22Beneath...
01:15:22Beneath the third rose bush in the rose garden lies your mother's skull.
01:15:28That's impossible.
01:15:30Mother died in childbirth.
01:15:32Your father was burned alive in that so-called car crash.
01:15:37All because he uncovered the truth.
01:15:45Neil!
01:15:46Swear by the cross, family, Crestor, or I'll die with my eyes wide open!
01:15:53I swear, I will hang Dorothea with her own hair and carve a penitent cross out of Ethan's bones.
01:16:05Do you, the groom, take Miss Graves standing opposite you to be your wife?
01:16:10Protect her and remain faithful to her forever, for richer or for poorer.
01:16:34going to talk now sir your mother didn't die from a difficult birth back then
01:16:41on the night you were born mrs d'orea bribed the anesthesist and they sewed a poisoned steel
01:16:48needle into the hematic glass go on your father later found the evidence on the second day after
01:16:58the funeral the brakes of his rolls royce failed what proof do you have mrs d'orethia hit the truth
01:17:07at the bottom of the stock of the deer hunting gun hanging in the villa's living room
01:17:14i'm sorry everyone today's wedding will have to be turned into a funeral no don't listen to him
01:17:20it's not true i didn't do it you did or didn't go tell the police yourself as for your son
01:17:27i reckon
01:17:27he'll never get his hands on the cross group for the rest of his life all because of you his
01:17:31own
01:17:31mother after all his mother is a murderer
01:17:37to write the cross you're involved in multiple murders from years ago i was actually fooled
01:17:42by a young brat like you lucian cursed you and i curse you never have the one you love
01:17:51lucian why are you treating me like this what did i do wrong ever since you agreed to spy on
01:17:56me for
01:17:56d'orethia i've never cared about you lucian i did all this because i love you don't you love me
01:18:02love you've been acting for so long that you've actually fallen into the role you hurt serena over
01:18:07and over again i could kill you lillian graves you assisted dorothea cross in committing multiple
01:18:11economic crimes please come with us mr cross release lillian graves immediately or we will
01:18:16take legal action against you as well don't worry officer i'm not ruining myself over trash like her
01:18:23i'm going to find my beloved
01:18:43boss miss brooks has just come out of the hospital
01:18:47call her madam from today on everyone will address her as madam
01:18:56the lily of the valet blooms will last all the way to our wedding
01:18:59i've already checked with the gardener you even planned for this too
01:19:09i'll make sure you're the happiest bride ever adrian i believe the future with you will be incredibly happy
01:19:30lucy's going to marry someone you ought to leave her in peace
01:19:46the madam's attending doctor needs to speak with you right up
01:19:58all her past memories will gradually vanish and eventually she'll forget me
01:20:06why didn't you say anything before
01:20:10i have to respect the patient's wishes
01:20:13she didn't want me to know it makes sense she couldn't even bring herself to tell me she'd end
01:20:17up forgetting me no wonder she acted strange lately are there any other treatment options
01:20:21if the hippotampus is only slightly damaged there is a chance of self-recovering
01:20:24but in severe cases modern medicine has no cure at all
01:20:27into deepen her memories this could yield some improvement
01:20:30she can't let her forget me never
