Twin Surprise For My Ex-husband - Full
Category

Short filmTranscript
00:00:01Today is the second anniversary of my marriage to my husband, but he is so drunk in the bar.
00:00:07The VIP door is joined. Just as I'm about to open the door, my hand freezes on the handle.
00:00:13Corrine's flight lands tomorrow.
00:00:16I hear the voices of Sean Cooper, my husband, the president of Cooper Group. Corrine is his ex.
00:00:23Layla hasn't conceived in two years because I never wanted her to bear a Cooper child.
00:00:28I drop my champagne. I bought it for the anniversary, his favorite.
00:00:37I leave the bar in panic and suddenly my phone rings. It is the hospital's message.
00:00:43Mrs. Cooper, congratulations. You are pregnant.
00:00:48I'm crouched by the curb vomiting. My phone lights up, a breaking entertainment alert.
00:00:53The photo is from four years ago, with Sean down on one knee, proposing to Corrine in grand fashion.
00:00:59The next day, the doorbell rings.
00:01:02I open the door. It is Corrine.
00:01:05Sean left his watch at my apartment last night. I thought I'd drop it off.
00:01:09I take the watch engraved on the back as L.S., the wedding gift I gave him.
00:01:15I see her out calmly. The moment the door closes, my nails dig into my palms and silent tears fall.
00:01:24That night, Sean comes home and slides divorce papers across the table.
00:01:33I pick up the pen and sign without reading a single line.
00:01:46I don't respond. I book a flight, delete all my contacts. I leave Fladina with the baby he never wanted.
00:01:54Four years later, Fladina International Airport.
00:01:57I wear a khaki Trent coat, holding Amila's hand in one hand and Andres' in the other, walking out of
00:02:04arrivals.
00:02:05Corrine is back! Sean is picking her up! What a perfect match!
00:02:10Mommy! That man looks just like me!
00:02:13Amelia pulls free from my grip and points at the VIP corridor. I look up.
00:02:18Sean is walking out of the corridor, his arm around Corrine.
00:02:21His gaze sweeps the crowd and collides with mine.
00:02:24His steps falter. Corrine follows his gazes toward me.
00:02:28Mommy, who is that man?
00:02:30No one. Let's go.
00:02:31Four years. I think I'm over him.
00:02:33I drag the kids out of the airport, but my heart is clenched so hard I can barely breathe.
00:02:39Back at the apartment, I lock myself in the bathroom and turn the fossa on full blast to drown out
00:02:46my crying.
00:02:47When I come out, Andres is sitting on the living room floor.
00:02:51My old laptop is open in front of him.
00:02:53Mommy, this is Daddy, isn't he?
00:02:56On the screen are a photo of Sean and me on our wedding day and the divorce papers from four
00:03:00years ago.
00:03:02Andres.
00:03:03Amelia wants to meet him. I'll protect her.
00:03:07The next day, I think they've gone to kindergarten.
00:03:09Then, the teacher calls.
00:03:11They never showed up.
00:03:12At Cooper Group headquarters, Amelia is brought into the CEO's office by Sean's secretary.
00:03:21Daddy.
00:03:23She throws herself into Sean's arms.
00:03:26Sean freezes, looking down at the little girl whose eyes look so much like his.
00:03:31Who are you?
00:03:32Where's your mom?
00:03:33My name is Amelia Carter.
00:03:36My mommy is Layla Carter.
00:03:39Sean's eyes change instantly.
00:03:41Sean had his secretary contact me, but Amelia clung to him and said she was hungry.
00:03:48So he took the children to the downstairs restaurant.
00:03:51Hungry.
00:03:52Sean takes the kids to a revolving restaurant.
00:03:55Daddy, this strawberry cake is so yummy.
00:03:58Try it.
00:03:59Sean pauses, then eats the piece she offers.
00:04:03He reaches out and wipes the cream from her cheek.
00:04:07Clumsy but gentle.
00:04:08Andres stays silent the whole time.
00:04:10But when Sean goes to the restroom, he secretly snaps a photo of his back and sends it to me.
00:04:16Mommy, he seems not as awful as he looks on TV.
00:04:21When I got the secretary's call, my hands were shaking.
00:04:27Josh happened to be nearby, so he drove me straight to the restaurant.
00:04:34He was my childhood friend, and he had helped me take care of the kids all these years.
00:04:39Sean looks at the two of us standing side by side.
00:04:42Something flickers in his eyes like he's been stung.
00:04:45Sean, thank you for taking care of them.
00:04:48So for the past four years, he's been by your side with the children?
00:04:52It's not what you think.
00:04:53I see.
00:04:56He turns and walks away without looking back.
00:04:59I want to run after him to explain, but my feet are rooted to the ground.
00:05:03Sean returns to his office and hurls his suit jacket onto the sofa.
00:05:08He yanks off his tie and dials Theo.
00:05:12Look into someone for me.
00:05:14Layla Carter.
00:05:16Everything from the last four years.
00:05:19Especially the man she's with.
00:05:21Hanging up, he opens a drawer and takes out the wedding ring I left behind four years ago.
00:05:26His thumb traces the engraving inside.
00:05:28He doesn't put it down for a long time.
00:05:32Sean, what's so interesting?
00:05:36Nothing.
00:05:36Sean quickly puts the ring back in the drawer, but she's already seen it.
00:05:42After leaving Sean's office, Corrine's eyes are cold as ice.
00:05:46She dials a number.
00:05:48Layla Carter.
00:05:49I want to know everything about her from the last four years.
00:05:53Josh asks to meet at a cafe.
00:05:55He says it's important.
00:05:56Sean's people are investigating you.
00:05:59I grip my cup, knuckles whitening.
00:06:01And there's another group digging into you too.
00:06:03I haven't figured it out, but not Sean's people.
00:06:06I knew it.
00:06:07Nothing good ever happens when he is involved.
00:06:10Layla.
00:06:11Call me if anything happens.
00:06:15That same night, two investigative reports land on Sean's desk.
00:06:20One is about me.
00:06:21Left Flay Dana four years ago.
00:06:23Gave birth to twins.
00:06:25Raised them alone.
00:06:26The other is about Josh.
00:06:28Owner of a tourism company, my childhood friend.
00:06:33Sean places the two reports side by side and stares at the twins' photo for a long time.
00:06:39They have my eyes.
00:06:41In the bedroom, the three of us are sitting on the bed.
00:06:43Amalia looks up at me, her big eyes full of confusion.
00:06:46Mommy, why doesn't Daddy live with us?
00:06:49All the kids at school have daddies to pick them up.
00:06:52I don't know how to answer.
00:06:54Amalia wanted to know, so I helped her find out.
00:06:57He's holding a crumpled piece of paper, a photo of Sean, downloaded and printed from the internet.
00:07:03I wrap my arms around both of them, tears falling.
00:07:09At the same time, Corrine receives her own report.
00:07:12She opens to the first page and sees the twins' birth dates and blood types.
00:07:16Her fingers begin to tremble.
00:07:19It's four years ago.
00:07:23She makes a call.
00:07:25Father, I need to deal with someone.
00:07:28I'll make it clean.
00:07:30The next day, Sean suddenly appears downstairs at my building.
00:07:33He leans against his car, the streetlight stretching his shadow long.
00:07:38Those two children, are they mine?
00:07:42I clench my fists and say nothing.
00:07:45You were already pregnant when you left Flaidana.
00:07:47Just then, Josh's car pulls up beside us.
00:07:51He's here to take me to see a real estate agent.
00:07:54Sean looks at Josh, then back on me.
00:07:56He unclenches his fist and steps back.
00:07:59Forget it.
00:08:00He gets in his car and roars away.
00:08:04That weekend, I take the kids to Central Plaza.
00:08:08The kids run off to play, their laughter echoing in the open space.
00:08:12I watch them from a distance, a contented smile on my face.
00:08:16Balloon!
00:08:17Mommy, it's Balloon!
00:08:19Amelia chases a balloon vendor out of my sight.
00:08:22Andres follows her.
00:08:24Amelia!
00:08:25When I catch up, for they're gone.
00:08:30I dial Sean's number like a madwoman, my fingers trembling so hard I can barely hit the buttons.
00:08:37The children are gone!
00:08:40Sean, please help me!
00:08:42On the other end, he bursts out of the meeting room.
00:08:47Theo, pull up the plaza surveillance footage.
00:08:50On screen, a large hand covers Amalia's mouth and drags her into a gray van.
00:08:55Andres lunges forward and bites that hand, but he's yanked in two.
00:09:04I kneel on the ground, clutching that little shoe.
00:09:11It's all my fault.
00:09:13At the same moment, Coren's phone lights up.
00:09:15It's an encrypted message.
00:09:17It says, secured.
00:09:18Inside an abandoned factory, my son is holding his crying sister tight with his tiny hands.
00:09:24Andres, I'm scared.
00:09:26I want mommy.
00:09:29Don't cry.
00:09:30I'll get you out.
00:09:32His eyes scan everywhere calmly.
00:09:42Yeah, both brats are here.
00:09:45More money, or I'll slit their throats.
00:09:55Now.
00:10:09Amelia squeezes through first.
00:10:12Then him.
00:10:16Two small figures vanish into the night.
00:10:25As the kidnapper returns, he sees nothing but an empty room.
00:10:31Damn it!
00:10:32The brats escaped!
00:10:35And at the same time, Corinne's phone lights up.
00:10:42Escaped?
00:10:44Useless idiots.
00:10:45When Sean and I reach the industrial district, the kidnappers are gone.
00:10:53The warehouse is empty.
00:10:56Amalia.
00:10:58Andres.
00:10:59Mommy's too late.
00:11:01Wait.
00:11:02Look at the floor.
00:11:04He points at a trail of small footprints leading toward the wasteland behind the hair house.
00:11:08They escaped.
00:11:10Layla, they're alive.
00:11:11Come with me.
00:11:14I run after him like a madwoman.
00:11:20Andres!
00:11:21Amelia!
00:11:23I scream their names as I run.
00:11:26My voice so hoarse it barely makes a sound.
00:11:35I rush towards the sound.
00:11:37Amelia is huddled in Andres' arms.
00:11:39And my son has a long, bloody gash on his arm.
00:11:44His entire sleeve is soaked red.
00:11:52Mommy, I told you.
00:11:54I'd protect her.
00:12:05In the hospital corridor, I rush Andres into the ER.
00:12:10His arm was sliced open by wire during the escape.
00:12:14He needs seven stitches.
00:12:19He doesn't cry once.
00:12:24After the doctor finishes, Sean finally walks in.
00:12:29And sits by Andres' bed.
00:12:32He wants to touch but pulls back his hand.
00:12:37You protected your sister.
00:12:40You're a hero.
00:12:42My son looks directly into his eyes with great seriousness.
00:12:48You're my father.
00:12:50You should have protected us.
00:12:53Andres calls him father for the very first time.
00:12:56The word father shatters something in Sean's eyes.
00:13:09Sean looks at me.
00:13:11Asks for an answer.
00:13:17I turn away in silence.
00:13:19Sean looks at Andres.
00:13:21Makes a solemn, determined promise in a deep voice.
00:13:25I will.
00:13:26From today on, I won't let anyone hurt you again.
00:13:30Andres doesn't answer.
00:13:32He turns his face to me.
00:13:33Mommy, it hurts.
00:13:37I hold him tight.
00:13:38And my tears won't stop.
00:13:41On the day we're discharged, Sean comes to pick us up himself.
00:13:52Get in.
00:13:55Where?
00:13:56He doesn't answer.
00:13:57He drives straight to his mansion.
00:13:59The very cage I lived in for two years and fled from four years ago.
00:14:04You're staying here.
00:14:06At least until we find out who's behind the kidnapping.
00:14:09It's not a suggestion.
00:14:11It's an order.
00:14:13And my children have already chosen him.
00:14:25The first night in the villa, the kids sleep deeply.
00:14:29I sit by the bed and watch them.
00:14:32My heart a tangled mess.
00:14:34Sean asks me to go to the study.
00:14:38He places a stack of documents in front of me.
00:14:41DNA test results.
00:14:43Birth certificates.
00:14:44And our old marriage certificate.
00:14:47Andres and Amelia are my children.
00:14:50Josh is not the father.
00:14:56I close my eyes.
00:14:58Don't want to look at their documents.
00:15:01Layla.
00:15:02You hid them from me.
00:15:04For four years.
00:15:08Yes.
00:15:10But you and Corrine...
00:15:14I won't come between you two.
00:15:16I turn and walk away.
00:15:18I hear him murmur to himself.
00:15:30Leela, was I wrong four years ago?
00:15:33Sean starts coming home on time.
00:15:37He builds blocks with Amelia, plays chess with Andres, even learns to braid his daughter's hair.
00:15:45Daddy!
00:15:46Bows!
00:15:47I want more bows!
00:15:48Amelia surrenders quickly.
00:15:51But Andres keeps his distance.
00:15:54He never initiates calling him dad.
00:15:57And whenever Sean touches him, he instinctively flinches.
00:16:00It doesn't matter.
00:16:02Sean seems unconcerned.
00:16:05But there is sadness in his eyes.
00:16:08I've enrolled the kids in the best kindergarten in Fladina.
00:16:11I know he's trying to be a good father.
00:16:14He wants to make up for those four empty years.
00:16:18I'll go check out the school tomorrow.
00:16:20The next day, I run into Corrine at the school gate.
00:16:27She stands across the street, smiling at me.
00:16:35Layla, long time no see.
00:16:39Corrine doesn't answer.
00:16:40She stands up and grabs her purse.
00:16:43Stay away from Sean.
00:16:45For your children's sake.
00:16:47She leaves.
00:16:48I sit there, fingers frozen.
00:16:54When I get home, Sean looks up at me, frowning.
00:16:58What's wrong?
00:17:00Nothing.
00:17:03I can't tell him.
00:17:04Not yet.
00:17:06That night, after tucking the kids in, I open my laptop.
00:17:10With trembling fingers, I type Cooper car crash.
00:17:15An old report pops up.
00:17:17Cooper couple killed in crash.
00:17:19Only son, Sean Cooper, ends entire estate.
00:17:21I read out the title, staring at the photo that shows a teenage Sean at the funeral.
00:17:26His eyes are hollow.
00:17:28I had no idea about this at all.
00:17:30I send the files to Josh.
00:17:32I need to know the truth.
00:17:34No matter how cruel it is.
00:17:43Three days later, he asks to meet.
00:17:45His expression is more serious than I've ever seen.
00:17:49Layla, I can only trace the crash to a transnational crime syndicate called Sigma.
00:17:56His expression is more serious than I've ever seen.
00:17:59It's too dangerous.
00:18:00For the kids' safety, you need to leave Sean as soon as possible.
00:18:06I return home in a daze.
00:18:13I push open the door, and see Sean is sitting on the living room floor, teaching Andres chess.
00:18:21Andres makes a move, then he looks up at Sean.
00:18:25Checkmate, dad.
00:18:28Andres calls him dad.
00:18:30For the first time, he initiates it.
00:18:33Layla, he called me dad.
00:18:38Sean scoops Andres up and buries his face in the child's small shoulder.
00:18:48Watching this, my heart is torn in two.
00:18:52What on earth am I supposed to do?
00:18:57That night, Sean knocks on my door.
00:19:03Layla, tomorrow.
00:19:05Come with me to Cooper Manor.
00:19:07Grandpa wants to meet you and the children.
00:19:09Garrett Cooper.
00:19:10The old man who arranged our marriage and never once blamed me after the divorce.
00:19:15I'm terrified.
00:19:17After four years.
00:19:18How do I face him?
00:19:23But the moment Garrett sees Amelia and Andres, tears well up in his cloudy old eyes.
00:19:30Then he looks at me and asks me to follow him to the study alone.
00:19:35My palms are soaked.
00:19:40Layla, my child, please sit down.
00:19:44Is he going to talk about the kids?
00:19:46Or demand to know why I hid them for four years?
00:19:49He pulls a document from his drawer and slides it across the desk towards me.
00:19:53Sign it.
00:19:55Property transfer?
00:19:56And five percent of Cooper Group shares?
00:20:01I can't.
00:20:02This is too much.
00:20:03This is what I owe you.
00:20:05Take it.
00:20:06Garrett holds my hand, eyes reddening.
00:20:09It's not for you.
00:20:10It's so this old man can go in peace.
00:20:12That boy, Sean, owes you far too much.
00:20:16I leave the study.
00:20:20Amelia waits for me in the hallway.
00:20:23She pulls me into a room.
00:20:26Mommy, daddy smiled so happily when he was little.
00:20:30Amelia points at a family portrait on the wall.
00:20:33A young Sean standing between a couple, smiling without a care in the world.
00:20:38Mommy, why doesn't he smile like that now?
00:20:41What I remember is another photo.
00:20:43The one from that old news article I found online.
00:20:47The teenage boy in black at the funeral.
00:20:52How did he survive all these years, all alone?
00:20:56A crazy thought takes hold of me.
00:21:04While Sean is out, I enter his study.
00:21:14In the bottom drawer, I find a locked iron box.
00:21:17I try the kids' birthdays.
00:21:19Amalina's, Andre's.
00:21:21None of them work.
00:21:27Andre's stand at the door of the study, looking at me calmly.
00:21:31The password is Dad's birthday.
00:21:33I already tried it.
00:21:41I open the box, hands trembling.
00:21:48These are...
00:21:49Inside are thick investigation files, crime scene photos from the crash, and a yellowed note.
00:21:55It bears a name, Steph Griffiths.
00:21:58And next to it, two words, Sigma Group.
00:22:02I flip the note over.
00:22:05On the back is another name.
00:22:07A name I know all too well.
00:22:10Corinne Evans.
00:22:12I put the box back.
00:22:14My fingers ice cold.
00:22:15My whole body trembling.
00:22:19Corinne.
00:22:23Was she behind the kidnapping of Amelia and Andres?
00:22:30You've known all along that something was wrong with Corinne?
00:22:35Yes.
00:22:37I can't tell you these things because the less you know, the safer it will be for you.
00:22:47All these years, you and she...
00:22:49That's why I had to stay involved with her.
00:22:54Stay involved.
00:22:56My heart clenches painfully.
00:22:59That night, Sean tells me everything.
00:23:04Twelve years ago, my parents didn't die in an ordinary crash.
00:23:09It was Sigma Group.
00:23:11He pauses for a moment, his voice carrying a deep sense of sadness.
00:23:15The Cooper family was in their way, so they silenced them.
00:23:19Corinne's adoptive father, Hawk, is the one who tampered with my parents' car.
00:23:23So you pretended to still have feelings for her, so you could find the mastermind, Steph Griffiths?
00:23:29Yes.
00:23:32Then when you divorced me, was it also because...
00:23:35I thought if I pushed you away, you'd be safe.
00:23:41I thought you didn't love me.
00:23:43But to protect me, he pushed me out of his world and carried it all alone for four years.
00:23:50Sean says nothing and holds me in his arms.
00:24:04Sean tells me Corinne is the venomous snake that Hawk planted by his side.
00:24:09I make a decision.
00:24:11I'll get close to Corinne myself.
00:24:13The next day, I ask her out for coffee.
00:24:23Sean has been so distracted lately.
00:24:26Does he still have feelings for you?
00:24:29I do notice that Corinne's eyes light up for a second, then turn guardied.
00:24:36What do you mean?
00:24:37I pretend to be sad, with a few tears forming at the corners of my eyes.
00:24:44The one in his heart was never me.
00:24:46You should win him back.
00:24:48I'm only living with him because of the kids.
00:24:51She stares at me for a long time before finally smiling.
00:24:54There's a condescending satisfaction in that smile.
00:24:57Layla, you're more sensible than I expected.
00:25:03I lift my coffee cup.
00:25:06My hands are shaking, but my face is smiling.
00:25:10The fish has taken the bait.
00:25:13Andres becomes my agent.
00:25:15He doesn't know what's really happening, but he silently memorizes every stranger who comes
00:25:20to the house and sketches their faces with his astonishing drawing skills.
00:25:26Mom, this man has been here three times.
00:25:29He hands me a sketch.
00:25:33The man in the drawing has a fierce glares.
00:25:38He always comes here when dad's not home with that lady named Corinne.
00:25:43It's the man from the photo Theo showed me.
00:25:46Steph's right-hand man, Hawk.
00:25:48Mom, is that man a bad guy?
00:25:51Mom, is that man a bad guy?
00:25:53Yes.
00:25:58But don't be scared.
00:26:00Mom will protect you.
00:26:02I'm not scared.
00:26:04I'll protect you and Amelia.
00:26:06I hug Andreas tight, proud and terrified at once.
00:26:12My son is using his pencil to spy on my enemies for me.
00:26:17But I don't even know how to protect him.
00:26:20Corinne starts treating me like an ally.
00:26:23She invites me to a private party.
00:26:25Layla, you're so lucky.
00:26:27My father is coming today, too.
00:26:30He will definitely like you.
00:26:35I walk into the private room wearing the dress she gave me.
00:26:41A middle-aged man sits in the host's seat.
00:26:44The exact face from Andres' sketch.
00:26:48So you're Sean's ex-wife?
00:26:52He looks me up and down.
00:26:58Yes.
00:26:59Your son draws well.
00:27:01He's got talent.
00:27:08Next time he sketches me, tell him,
00:27:12make me look more handsome.
00:27:14In that instant, my blood freezes.
00:27:17They've seen Andres' drawings.
00:27:21Moreover, they never intended to let us go.
00:27:26I burst into the house and clutch Andres tightly in my arms,
00:27:30trembling uncontrollably.
00:27:32Mommy, what's wrong?
00:27:34Your hands are so cold.
00:27:36Nothing, baby.
00:27:37Mommy just missed you.
00:27:39Sean pushes the door open,
00:27:41takes one look at my face,
00:27:43and rushes over.
00:27:46What happened?
00:27:47You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:27:50Hawk knows Andres drew him.
00:27:52Sean's face turns ashen.
00:27:54He punches the wall.
00:27:56They've been watching this house
00:27:58since the first day you moved in.
00:28:01That night, he installs alarms on every window himself,
00:28:06then presses a small pistol into my hand.
00:28:13If I'm not here, you use it.
00:28:15Aim for the chest,
00:28:16or pull the trigger.
00:28:20Lila, promise me.
00:28:23I hold that gun all night.
00:28:31Unable to sleep.
00:28:35Theo sends word.
00:28:37Hawk will personally escort a shipment out of Fladyna Harbor in three days.
00:28:43I need you to stay at the hotel near the harbor.
00:28:46Tell me the moment you see them.
00:28:47I can do more.
00:28:49Let me help you.
00:28:51Lila,
00:28:52knowing you're there is the only way I can focus.
00:28:57Trust me.
00:29:01That night,
00:29:02I stand at the hotel window,
00:29:03staring through binoculars at the dock.
00:29:11The moment Corrine appears,
00:29:13arm in arm with Hawk,
00:29:15I press the shatter.
00:29:18Targets in sight.
00:29:28When the lights come back on,
00:29:30Hawk is pinned to the ground.
00:29:35But Corrine,
00:29:36she's vanished.
00:29:40Sean bursts into the hotel room,
00:29:43covered in blood.
00:29:45Are you okay?
00:29:46Did she come here?
00:29:47I'm fine.
00:29:48Where's Corrine?
00:29:54She ran.
00:29:58But she won't get far.
00:30:00Corrine has vanished.
00:30:02I've never seen Sean's face so grim.
00:30:05Sean,
00:30:06Corrine knows too much and hates you too much.
00:30:08Your whole family are in danger.
00:30:11That night,
00:30:12Sean makes a decision.
00:30:13We move to Cooper Manor.
00:30:15Garrett activates every security asset
00:30:18on the estate.
00:30:19The gates are guarded around the clock.
00:30:24Mommy,
00:30:25why can't we go back to Daddy's house?
00:30:29I crouch down and hold Amelia in my arms.
00:30:33I don't know how to answer.
00:30:34I don't know how to do it.
00:30:38I don't know how to do it.
00:30:39Corrine storms into Cooper Manor in a loose white dress,
00:30:42her belly thrust forward.
00:30:44I'm pregnant with Sean's baby.
00:30:46Here's the prenatal report.
00:30:48Let everyone see it.
00:30:50Everyone freezes.
00:30:52Garrett sits in his wheelchair,
00:30:55face ashen.
00:30:56When Corrine sees Sean walking down from upstairs,
00:30:59she bursts into tears immediately.
00:31:01Sean,
00:31:02this is your child.
00:31:03You can't do this to me.
00:31:05She clutches her belly,
00:31:07tears streaming down her face.
00:31:09Sean walks up to her
00:31:10and takes the report from her hand.
00:31:12Your forgery skills haven't improved one bit in four years.
00:31:16What did you say?
00:31:18This hospital closed three months ago.
00:31:22Corrine stands still,
00:31:24her expression frozen.
00:31:26Police swarm in and pin her to the ground.
00:31:29She looks back at me as she's dragged away.
00:31:32Leela!
00:31:33You think you've won?
00:31:34You don't know anything!
00:31:35What is she talking about?
00:31:38I stare at Sean's back,
00:31:40waiting for his answer.
00:31:42But he says nothing.
00:31:44Corrine requests to see me during interrogation.
00:31:46Only me.
00:31:50No.
00:31:51Too dangerous.
00:31:53You can't go.
00:31:57I hesitate all day.
00:32:01In the end, I go.
00:32:09She has answers I need.
00:32:16You finally came.
00:32:18I knew you would.
00:32:20Through the glass,
00:32:21she looks haggard,
00:32:22but her eyes are still sharp as knives.
00:32:28What do you want to say?
00:32:31Sean chased you for four years.
00:32:33Not for you.
00:32:33For Garrett Cooper's inheritance.
00:32:40You're lying.
00:32:41You're lying.
00:32:44Those two children,
00:32:45you think they're precious to him?
00:32:47No.
00:32:47They're his bargaining cherubs.
00:32:52You are insane.
00:32:54Am I?
00:32:56Then ask him.
00:32:58Why he had to marry,
00:32:59and have children before 35,
00:33:02why?
00:33:02Why he married you?
00:33:07I hang up and walk away.
00:33:17Behind me,
00:33:19her hysterical laughter echoes.
00:33:21The Sigma group trail suddenly goes cold.
00:33:24Theo's investigation shows that after Hawk's arrest,
00:33:27the entire organization hit pause.
00:33:29All activities ceased.
00:33:31All communications cut.
00:33:34They're waiting.
00:33:37Waiting for what?
00:33:41Waiting for us to let our guard down.
00:33:44Then they'll strike.
00:33:46But...
00:33:46He looks at me.
00:33:50I don't go any further.
00:33:52That night,
00:33:54Sean suddenly announces
00:33:55he's taking me and the kids abroad.
00:33:57There's...
00:33:58You arranged this awfully fast.
00:34:01It's been in the works.
00:34:03Flights, hotel, itinerary.
00:34:07Everything is ready.
00:34:17Sean,
00:34:18what are you hiding from me?
00:34:23The resort is beautiful.
00:34:26The kids chase waves on the beach.
00:34:29Sean relaxes under an umbrella.
00:34:31A rare sight.
00:34:42I look at Sean.
00:34:43He is just as handsome
00:34:44as he was four years ago.
00:34:48He suddenly opens his eyes
00:34:50and catches me staring.
00:34:57You're looking at me.
00:34:59No, I'm not.
00:35:09He reaches out and pulls me down beside him.
00:35:12Leela,
00:35:14when this is all over,
00:35:16can we start again?
00:35:18Start again?
00:35:20What do you mean?
00:35:23Like when we first got married.
00:35:25No secrets, no schemes.
00:35:27Just you and me
00:35:29and the kids.
00:35:33My heart skips a beat.
00:35:36But Karain's words flood back.
00:35:50On the third day,
00:35:52Sean gets a phone call.
00:35:53And he takes a need forking a bad.
00:35:56His face changes instantly.
00:36:07On the third day of vacation,
00:36:09Sean gets a phone call.
00:36:19He walks away and talks for a long time.
00:36:21When he comes back,
00:36:23he looks like his soul has been drained.
00:36:25Theo found Steph's trail.
00:36:27I have to go back to Fladina immediately.
00:36:32We're going back with you.
00:36:34No.
00:36:35You and the kids stay here.
00:36:37It's safe.
00:36:40Safe?
00:36:41No place is safe without you.
00:36:52He looks at me for a long time,
00:36:54then finally nods.
00:37:01That night,
00:37:02we board a flight back.
00:37:04A mania falls asleep in my arms.
00:37:07Andres leans against my shoulder.
00:37:14Sean stares out the window
00:37:16the entire way,
00:37:17his hands clenched into fists.
00:37:30I don't know what he's thinking,
00:37:32but I know.
00:37:33The storm is coming.
00:37:37Third day back in Fladina,
00:37:39the kids and I walk out of the supermarket.
00:37:47The doors fly open.
00:37:49Two men charge out.
00:37:51Before I can scream,
00:37:53a hand clamps over my mouth
00:37:54and drags me into the car.
00:38:06Don't be scared, Amelia.
00:38:08Don't be scared.
00:38:10The car speeds away.
00:38:12My phone is snatched
00:38:13and thrown out the window.
00:38:21Amelia sobs in terror.
00:38:23Andres holds her tight.
00:38:24But his eyes are locked
00:38:26on the kidnappers in front.
00:38:29There are two kidnappers.
00:38:31One of the person's eyes
00:38:32has a scar at the corner.
00:38:34Mrs. Cooper,
00:38:35someone wants to see you.
00:38:37You've been waiting a long time.
00:38:41We're taken to an abandoned factory.
00:38:54The one-eyed man shoves me
00:38:56into an office alone.
00:38:57Someone is sitting inside.
00:39:01Steph Griffiths.
00:39:02I recognize him instantly.
00:39:08Layla Carter.
00:39:10Or should I call you Mrs. Cooper?
00:39:15What do you want?
00:39:18Relax.
00:39:19I just want to chat.
00:39:21About your husband.
00:39:24About the truth
00:39:25he's been chasing
00:39:26for 12 years.
00:39:28You killed his parents.
00:39:33Is that what he told you?
00:39:35He stands up
00:39:36and walks slowly to the window.
00:39:38His back to me.
00:39:38Sean thinks I killed
00:39:40his parents.
00:39:42He's chased me for 12 years.
00:39:45Hated me for 12 years.
00:39:46He turns to look at me.
00:39:48His eyes are still sharp as knives.
00:39:51But the truth is
00:39:53it was his own father
00:39:55who put the whole family
00:39:57on the road to death.
00:40:00Steph tells me
00:40:01a completely different story.
00:40:0612 years ago
00:40:07Sean's father
00:40:09wasn't just the head
00:40:10of Cooper Group.
00:40:11He was also
00:40:12a secret partner
00:40:13of Sigma Group.
00:40:15You think I'll believe you?
00:40:21Believe it or not
00:40:22we worked together
00:40:23for 10 full years.
00:40:25You're lying.
00:40:26Why would he work with you?
00:40:28Why?
00:40:29Because the Cooper family's
00:40:30first fortune
00:40:31was built with Sigma money.
00:40:32From Garrett's generation
00:40:34dirty Sigma blood
00:40:35has run through
00:40:35the Cooper veins.
00:40:36He lights a cigar
00:40:37smoke curling
00:40:38in the dim room.
00:40:4312 years ago
00:40:44your husband's father
00:40:45wanted out.
00:40:46He threatened
00:40:47to expose everything
00:40:48to drag all of Sigma
00:40:49down with him.
00:40:51So you killed him?
00:40:55He turns
00:40:56and looks at me
00:40:57a cruel smile
00:40:59curling on his lips.
00:41:00I had to.
00:41:02Steph's words
00:41:03pour over me
00:41:04like ice water.
00:41:05My whole body
00:41:06goes cold.
00:41:07The crash
00:41:08wasn't my doing.
00:41:10Hawk acted
00:41:11on his own.
00:41:12I only wanted
00:41:13to warn him.
00:41:14He pretends
00:41:15to be sad
00:41:16but can't hide
00:41:17the smile
00:41:17on his lips.
00:41:19Do you know
00:41:20why Sean
00:41:21married you?
00:41:22What are you
00:41:23trying to say?
00:41:24Garrett's will
00:41:25is crystal clear.
00:41:27Sean must marry
00:41:28and have children
00:41:29before 35
00:41:30or everything
00:41:31goes to charity.
00:41:33You're not his wife.
00:41:35You're his ticket.
00:41:37My nails
00:41:38dig into my palms
00:41:39blood trickling
00:41:41through my fingers.
00:41:44Corinne said
00:41:45the exact same thing.
00:41:47Leila
00:41:48when this is all over
00:41:50can we start again?
00:41:51Leila can't know
00:41:52about the will.
00:41:53I'll handle this.
00:41:54Grandpa's health
00:41:55is declining.
00:41:56He can't take
00:41:56any more stress.
00:41:57In all of this
00:41:58what is real?
00:42:02I'm dragged back
00:42:03to the room
00:42:04where the kids
00:42:04are held.
00:42:11Andres rushes over
00:42:13and wraps his arms
00:42:14around my waist.
00:42:15Mommy.
00:42:16Your hand is bleeding.
00:42:19Mommy's fine.
00:42:21Don't be scared.
00:42:22I hold both kids close.
00:42:24Steph's word
00:42:25and Karen's overlap
00:42:26my mind in chaos.
00:42:29Mom,
00:42:30what did that man
00:42:31tell you?
00:42:33Nothing.
00:42:35I kiss Andres
00:42:37on the forehead.
00:42:40Mommy's here.
00:42:42Daddy will come save us.
00:42:44Whatever Sean's reasons
00:42:45were for marrying me,
00:42:47his love for these kids
00:42:48is real.
00:42:49I believe in daddy.
00:42:53I look at my son's
00:42:54determined eyes
00:42:55and my tears
00:42:56nearly fall.
00:42:58Sean and his men
00:43:00storm in
00:43:00late that night.
00:43:01I shield the kids
00:43:02I shield the kids beneath me,
00:43:03huddled in the corner.
00:43:05The door is kicked open,
00:43:07gunfire,
00:43:08shouting,
00:43:08and footsteps erupt all at once.
00:43:14Leela!
00:43:21We're here.
00:43:23Sean is covered in blood,
00:43:24his eyes frantically
00:43:25searching the room
00:43:26until they land on me.
00:43:28I'm sorry.
00:43:29I'm so late.
00:43:31He reaches out,
00:43:32his fingers trembling
00:43:33as they touch my face.
00:43:36I see his eyes
00:43:37turning red.
00:43:39I take his hand.
00:43:43You're here.
00:43:44That's all that matters.
00:43:46He lowers his head,
00:43:47pressing his forehead
00:43:48against Amalia's hand.
00:43:49I feel it.
00:43:51His tears.
00:43:52It's the first time
00:43:53I've ever seen him cry.
00:43:57I thought I was gonna lose you.
00:43:59Steph escaped.
00:44:01Sean didn't chase him.
00:44:02He brought us home.
00:44:03He personally bathed Andres and Amalia,
00:44:05changed their clothes,
00:44:07and put them to bed.
00:44:08Daddy,
00:44:08don't go away again, okay?
00:44:10Okay.
00:44:11Daddy's not going anywhere ever again.
00:44:13This man just went through a gunfight,
00:44:15has entreated wounds,
00:44:16and he's crouching beside a child's bed
00:44:18tucking in his daughter.
00:44:19Amelia,
00:44:20sweet dreams.
00:44:21Daddy's here.
00:44:22After the kids are asleep,
00:44:24he comes out.
00:44:26I kneel down
00:44:27and pull out the first kit
00:44:28to treat his wounds.
00:44:37Did Steph say something to you?
00:44:39I lower my eyes
00:44:40and don't answer.
00:44:43Leela, look at me.
00:44:45Whatever he said,
00:44:46let me explain.
00:44:48He said I'm nothing but your ticket.
00:44:53Garrett's will?
00:44:54Did you marry me because of it?
00:45:01Yes.
00:45:03Sean lets go of my hand
00:45:04and takes a deep breath.
00:45:08The will is real.
00:45:10I had to marry and have children before 35.
00:45:14But that was two years ago.
00:45:16And now?
00:45:19But I stopped you at the airport.
00:45:21It wasn't because of the will.
00:45:24It was because I couldn't lose you again.
00:45:28It was because of you.
00:45:30When you first met Amelia and Andres,
00:45:33you had no idea they were yours.
00:45:35I didn't know.
00:45:39But I felt this inexplicable pull towards them.
00:45:43I wanted to protect them.
00:45:45He presses my hand against his chest.
00:45:47I feel his heartbeat.
00:45:50Strong and fast.
00:45:53You don't have to believe me.
00:45:54But this,
00:45:56every beat,
00:45:57is for you.
00:46:00He pulls me into his arms.
00:46:08His chin rests on top of my head.
00:46:18Theo rushes to the manor overnight.
00:46:21His expression is graver than I've ever seen.
00:46:25Steph didn't go far.
00:46:26He's hiding in downtown Fladena,
00:46:28in a luxury apartment directly across from Cooper Group headquarters.
00:46:32The most dangerous place
00:46:34is the safest.
00:46:37It gets worse.
00:46:44Through shell companies and offshore accounts,
00:46:46he's secretly acquired 15% of Cooper Group shares
00:46:49over the past three years.
00:46:53He's now the third largest shareholder,
00:46:55behind only Sean and Garrett.
00:46:58Theo's hand trembles
00:47:00as he hands over the intel.
00:47:10Sean gets a phone call,
00:47:12says nothing the entire time,
00:47:13his face turning pale.
00:47:20Who was that?
00:47:24Steph.
00:47:26What did he say?
00:47:33Tomorrow at 10 a.m.
00:47:35Emergency shareholder meeting.
00:47:39He's going to remove me.
00:47:41I watch as Sean turns on the TV.
00:47:45Steph's face appears on the screen,
00:47:48and his smiling face fills the screen.
00:47:52Stephen Griffiths,
00:47:53a shareholder of the Cooper Group,
00:47:55has proposed to remove the current CEO,
00:47:57It's already on the news.
00:47:58Sean Cooper.
00:47:58This proposal has received support
00:48:00from several shareholders.
00:48:02Sean's expression becomes serious.
00:48:07I'm going with you tomorrow.
00:48:09No.
00:48:10It's too dangerous.
00:48:12Sean, I'm not the kind of wife
00:48:13who hides in the back.
00:48:15I'm Leila Carter,
00:48:17your woman,
00:48:19mother of your children.
00:48:24He looks at me for a long time,
00:48:27then finally nods.
00:48:29Okay.
00:48:31Tomorrow you stand by my side.
00:48:33Sean holds my hand.
00:48:35His palm is warm.
00:48:36My heart is pounding.
00:48:38But I'm not afraid anymore.
00:48:40The day of the shareholder meeting,
00:48:42I drop the kids off at Garrett's first.
00:48:45Mommy, I'll take care of Amelia.
00:48:47You and Daddy come back safe.
00:48:48Mommy promises.
00:48:50We'll come back.
00:48:51Mommy, will Daddy beat the bad guy?
00:48:54Yes.
00:48:55Daddy will.
00:48:56I arrive at Cooper Group.
00:48:58The moment I step into the lobby,
00:49:00I see him.
00:49:02I see him.
00:49:04Mrs. Cooper,
00:49:06what a coincidence.
00:49:07You look beautiful today.
00:49:09I look calm on the surface,
00:49:10but I'm shaking with fear inside.
00:49:14I knew you'd be here.
00:49:16He leans close to my ear
00:49:18and lowers his voice.
00:49:19Are you really comfortable
00:49:21leaving your two children with Garrett?
00:49:25What are you trying to say?
00:49:28That old man is practically dead himself.
00:49:32Who can he protect?
00:49:34Steph walks away.
00:49:36I call Garrett with shaking hands.
00:49:45Garrett, are the kids okay?
00:49:48They're playing in the garden.
00:49:50Andres is teaching Amalia
00:49:51the names of flowers.
00:49:54What's wrong?
00:49:56Nothing.
00:49:58Tell security to watch the gates.
00:49:59No one in or out.
00:50:02Already done.
00:50:03Don't worry.
00:50:05I hang up.
00:50:06Sean comes to my side.
00:50:10I tell him what Steph said.
00:50:15I won't let him get away.
00:50:17His voice sounds like
00:50:18it's squeezed through gritted teeth.
00:50:21We walk into the conference room.
00:50:23Steph, if he's already seated.
00:50:25Paloared suit,
00:50:26hair perfectly styled
00:50:27like a true business mogul.
00:50:29Seeing us,
00:50:30he raises his coffee cup.
00:50:33Sean, long time no see.
00:50:36Steph.
00:50:38After today,
00:50:39this office won't be yours anymore.
00:50:42I've prepared cardboard boxes for you.
00:50:48Sean sits down across from him,
00:50:51expressionless.
00:50:52Try me.
00:50:57Steph smiles maliciously.
00:50:59Your father was not as excellent as you back then.
00:51:03But I have money.
00:51:09Over the past five years,
00:51:12Sean Cooper
00:51:12has turned Cooper Group
00:51:13into his private army.
00:51:16The screen explodes with photos.
00:51:19Armed men,
00:51:20overseas safe houses,
00:51:22piles of cash.
00:51:23Mercenaries,
00:51:24brebery,
00:51:25illegal surveillance.
00:51:26Every charge is enough
00:51:27to put him behind bars.
00:51:29The room erupts.
00:51:30A shareholder stands up.
00:51:32Another slams their documents down.
00:51:35Steph leans back in his chair,
00:51:37taking a leisurely sip of coffee.
00:51:42The room falls dead silent.
00:51:45Sean, confess.
00:51:48I'll let you keep some dignity.
00:51:50Every shareholder stares at Sean.
00:51:56Sean stands up.
00:51:59He doesn't look at the shareholders.
00:52:01He looks straight at Steph.
00:52:07Fellow shareholders,
00:52:09every word Mr. Steph Griffiths
00:52:11has said is true.
00:52:12The room erupts.
00:52:16I did use group resources
00:52:17to hunt Sigma Group
00:52:18because it's a transnational
00:52:20criminal organization,
00:52:22has harmed many people,
00:52:23and one of its founders
00:52:26is sitting right here
00:52:27in front of you.
00:52:28Steph gives a cold laugh
00:52:30and remains silent.
00:52:31Twelve years ago,
00:52:32he orchestrated my parents' murder.
00:52:34Three years ago,
00:52:35he tried to infiltrate Cooper Group
00:52:37through Corrine Evans.
00:52:38Last week,
00:52:39he kidnapped my wife and children.
00:52:41Where's your proof?
00:52:41You have no proof!
00:52:43Some pull out phones
00:52:44to take pictures.
00:52:46Call security!
00:52:48The room is in complete chaos.
00:52:54Sean turns and walks
00:52:56toward the conference room door.
00:53:01Sean,
00:53:02did your father also teach you
00:53:04to slander people?
00:53:05I, Steph,
00:53:05have always been upstanding.
00:53:07Everyone here
00:53:08can attest to that.
00:53:09You say I'm a criminal?
00:53:10Where's the proof?
00:53:11If you have none,
00:53:12get out of this conference room.
00:53:16The room buzzes with murmurs.
00:53:19Look,
00:53:19he's running away
00:53:21because his lies failed.
00:53:26The men of the Cooper family
00:53:28are all cowards.
00:53:30Sean says nothing.
00:53:31He keeps walking
00:53:32toward the door.
00:53:36Sean's hand grips
00:53:37the door handle.
00:53:38He glances back at Steph.
00:53:40You want proof?
00:53:44The proof I have
00:53:46is more than enough
00:53:46for the police.
00:53:48He yanks the door open.
00:53:51Steph's face
00:53:52goes white instantly.
00:53:54Outside,
00:53:54the hallway is packed
00:53:55with police officers.
00:53:59Police swarm in
00:54:01and pin Steph down
00:54:02on the conference table.
00:54:04His face is pressed
00:54:05against the cold surface.
00:54:10Suddenly,
00:54:11he starts laughing.
00:54:13He strains to turn his head
00:54:15and stares daggers at me.
00:54:16Leela Carter.
00:54:18Do you know why
00:54:19Sean has been chasing
00:54:20the truth for 12 years?
00:54:22What are you trying to say?
00:54:24It's not just for revenge.
00:54:26It's because
00:54:27Garrett Cooper made a will.
00:54:29My heart clenches violently.
00:54:31If Sean can't uncover
00:54:33the truth of his parents' deaths
00:54:34and restore the family
00:54:35separation before 35,
00:54:37all Cooper Group
00:54:38herefers will automatically
00:54:39transfer to a secret
00:54:41trust fund.
00:54:42And the sole beneficiary
00:54:43of that fund
00:54:44is Sigma Group's
00:54:45legacy inheritance
00:54:46crook program.
00:54:47In other words,
00:54:49me.
00:54:54Everyone in the room freezes.
00:54:56Steph is pinned by the police
00:54:58but still struggling,
00:54:59words spilling from his mouth
00:55:00without stopping.
00:55:01The Cooper family fortune
00:55:03has been tainted
00:55:03with Sigma blood
00:55:04from the very beginning.
00:55:06Sean's father didn't want
00:55:07to leave the organization.
00:55:09He wanted to take it over
00:55:10completely.
00:55:11Garrett knew everything.
00:55:12That's why he forced
00:55:13Sean to marry you.
00:55:14His eyes are like two flames
00:55:16burning into me
00:55:17until there's nowhere to hide.
00:55:18To use your clean background
00:55:20to whitewash
00:55:21the Cooper bloodline.
00:55:23You think you're his wife?
00:55:24You're his cover-up!
00:55:25I'm nailed to the spot
00:55:26by his words.
00:55:27Sean's face is white as paper.
00:55:30He says nothing.
00:55:31The police drag Steph out.
00:55:34I stand up,
00:55:36walk out of the conference room
00:55:39into the elevator
00:55:43out of Cooper Group headquarters.
00:55:46Sean watches my back.
00:55:52He doesn't follow.
00:55:54I sit on a bench
00:55:56in Central Park
00:55:57for the entire afternoon.
00:55:59When Sean finds me,
00:56:00it's already dark.
00:56:06Leela, I can explain.
00:56:09He doesn't sit beside me.
00:56:12He crouches in front of me
00:56:13like a man awaiting judgment.
00:56:18I look at him.
00:56:20This man I've loved
00:56:21for so many years.
00:56:23His face looks tired
00:56:24and fragile
00:56:25under the streetlight.
00:56:27How much of what Steph said
00:56:28is true?
00:56:31I don't know.
00:56:33The will is real.
00:56:35But marrying you...
00:56:37His phone suddenly rings.
00:56:40He answers it.
00:56:41His face changes instantly.
00:56:44Grandpa is critically ill.
00:56:46We have to go back now.
00:56:48I stand up
00:56:49and run with him to the car.
00:56:55Garrett's the only person
00:56:56in that family
00:56:57who has ever been
00:56:58truly kind to me.
00:56:59I will stay by his side.
00:57:01We arrive at Garrett's bedside.
00:57:05The once vigorous old man
00:57:07is now shrunken in bed
00:57:08like a withered leaf.
00:57:15Sean, leave.
00:57:16I need to speak
00:57:17with Layla alone.
00:57:23Sean leaves the room.
00:57:28Layla.
00:57:29Sean marrying you.
00:57:31It was my idea.
00:57:32I forced him.
00:57:34Garrett pulls a letter
00:57:35from under his pillow
00:57:36and presses it into my hand.
00:57:37My heart clenches.
00:57:39After his parents died,
00:57:40he turned himself
00:57:41into an island.
00:57:42I thought if a kind,
00:57:43innocent girl
00:57:44came into his life,
00:57:45he might learn to love again.
00:57:46But I never expected him
00:57:48to truly fall for you.
00:57:49Not because of me,
00:57:50but because of you.
00:57:51My tears fall.
00:57:52I open the letter.
00:57:53It's his revised will.
00:57:55It says,
00:57:56Layla and Sean
00:57:58shall jointly decide
00:57:59all matters
00:58:00of the Cooper family.
00:58:02Watch over him for me.
00:58:04I promise.
00:58:06On the day of the funeral,
00:58:08snow falls heavily.
00:58:11The Cooper family cemetery
00:58:12is filled with people
00:58:14dressed in black.
00:58:16Sean stands before
00:58:17the gravestone
00:58:18in a black coat,
00:58:19snow covering his hair
00:58:20and shoulders.
00:58:22Grandpa carried too much
00:58:23for this family.
00:58:25He carried my father's sins,
00:58:28carried my hatred,
00:58:29and in the end,
00:58:31handed his only hope
00:58:33to me.
00:58:38He finds me
00:58:40in the crowd
00:58:44and reaches out
00:58:46his hand to me.
00:58:48Leela.
00:58:53I walk over
00:58:54and take his hand.
00:58:57Grandpa,
00:58:58I'll protect her.
00:59:00I'll protect the kids.
00:59:02I'll protect the Cooper family.
00:59:05Rest easy.
00:59:06In that moment,
00:59:08I know.
00:59:12I will never let go
00:59:14of this hand again.
00:59:18After Garrett is gone,
00:59:20Andre stops playing chess.
00:59:22Amelia stops asking me
00:59:23for for bedtime stories.
00:59:25Their teacher calls
00:59:26to say they've been
00:59:27spacing out at kindergarten,
00:59:28not playing with the other kids.
00:59:30Until one day,
00:59:31I find a drawing
00:59:32in Amalia's backpack.
00:59:33Five people holding hands,
00:59:35me, Sean,
00:59:36Andres,
00:59:37Amalia,
00:59:37and Garrett.
00:59:38Garrett's face
00:59:39was very blurry.
00:59:41Beside it,
00:59:41crooked letters
00:59:42spell out a sentence.
00:59:43Who's next?
00:59:44My daughter,
00:59:46only four years old,
00:59:47is afraid of death.
00:59:49Sean sees the drawing
00:59:50and is silent
00:59:50for a long time.
00:59:52Then he picks up
00:59:53both kids
00:59:54and sits on the sofa.
00:59:57Amelia,
00:59:58Andres,
01:00:00listen to me.
01:00:02We will be together
01:00:03forever.
01:00:05No one will ever leave
01:00:07again.
01:00:07That night,
01:00:09he comes to me.
01:00:12Layla,
01:00:14let's have a wedding.
01:00:16Not for us,
01:00:17but to make them believe
01:00:19this family will never
01:00:20fall apart.
01:00:23I look at our sleeping
01:00:24children
01:00:30and nod.
01:00:33It's May.
01:00:34The roses at the
01:00:35Maniser are in full bloom.
01:00:39The whole garden
01:00:41is fragrant.
01:00:45Andres wears
01:00:46a little suit.
01:00:48Amalia is in a
01:00:49white princess dress,
01:00:51carrying a small
01:00:52flower basket
01:00:52and scattering petals.
01:01:02Josh flies back
01:01:03from overseas.
01:01:05He takes my arm
01:01:06and walks me
01:01:07towards Sean,
01:01:07who waits under
01:01:09a rose-covered arch.
01:01:15This time,
01:01:16neither of you
01:01:17is allowed
01:01:17to look back.
01:01:25Sean takes my hand,
01:01:28sunlight falling
01:01:29into his eyes.
01:01:31Layla Cooper,
01:01:33Layla Cooper,
01:01:35I'll spend the rest
01:01:36of my life
01:01:37making up for
01:01:38everything I owe you
01:01:39from the first half.
01:01:42I stand on my tiptoes
01:01:44and kiss him.
01:01:48Petals fall around us.
01:01:50I close my eyes
01:01:52and remember
01:01:53that night
01:01:53four years ago
01:01:55and his eyes
01:01:56looking at me
01:01:57when we met again
01:01:57at the airport.
01:02:01Fate arranged
01:02:03everything
01:02:03just right.
01:02:04in between.
01:02:05I love home.
01:02:05I do love him.
01:02:05Oah.
01:02:06Did you vlog this
01:02:06Fuck me.
