Transcript
00:01Did Anna misunderstand everything?
00:05No, no, no. I already explained to her everything.
00:08Okay.
00:09I'm your husband, you're my wife. It's normal that we can walk together.
00:15Honey, what's on your face?
00:25Hello, ma'am.
00:26Oh, hello.
00:27This is given to you by Mr. James Order.
00:31Well, thank you, Alex.
00:33My pleasure.
00:35Last month I saw a pair of jade earrings in a jewelry store
00:39that would perfectly match the jade bracelet grandfather had given me.
00:44Emerald green, beautiful and delicate.
00:48I fell in love with them at first sight.
00:51James had promised to give them to me on our anniversary.
00:55The gift box was elegantly wrapped, but it wasn't the gift I was expecting.
01:02Please, pass on my thanks to James.
01:07Certainly.
01:08I'm free to go?
01:09Yeah.
01:12Alex, wait.
01:13Yeah?
01:14I baked this cake, so...
01:15Oh, no, no, no.
01:16I'm really sorry, but Mr. James precisely asked me not to bring anything.
01:22I meant sweet.
01:28You do love cakes, ma'am, don't you?
01:32Oh, yes.
01:34Yes, don't worry.
01:36I'll keep it.
01:39Bye.
01:42I always knew that James didn't have a sweet tooth.
01:46That's why I had personally prepared this cake.
01:50It was vanilla, but not sweet at all.
02:01Hello, James.
02:03Thank you for your gift.
02:04I won't be coming back tonight.
02:07Oh.
02:08All right.
02:10So, candlelit dinner?
02:13Bye, Emily.
02:15I couldn't believe it.
02:16On the day of our second anniversary, my husband was having a candlelit dinner with another woman.
02:24This fact instantly made me feel defeated, hopeless to the core.
02:29I had already completely lost in this competition with Anna.
02:38I felt a wrenching pain in my stomach from the egg allergy.
02:42No one in this world knew about the allergy except my mother.
02:46I promised myself that this was the last time I would be this crazy and desperate.
02:51I was sick.
02:56Oh.
02:57I have a slight allergy.
02:59I've taken some meds, and this allergy will pass in a few days.
03:03Are you sure?
03:04It looks serious.
03:05Yes.
03:06Don't worry.
03:07I won't delay to visit grandpa.
03:09We manage everything right now, and you can be with Anna.
03:18I don't think that it's the right moment to visit grandpa.
03:22Because he's ill now, and it's going to be dangerous for him.
03:27You think it will be better to tell him about our divorce after celebration?
03:31No, no, no.
03:32I think it's going to be better to call doctor and show him your face.
03:39While the doctor was examining me, James was pacing from side to side like a pendulum, creating an anxious atmosphere.
03:46So, maybe you know what cures the allergy?
03:49Yes, it's food allergy.
03:51Did you have medical treatment before?
03:53No.
03:54No?
03:55I just wonder when you learn how to lie.
03:57This morning you say you've already taken pills.
04:00I'm sorry.
04:01Sorry.
04:02So, you have to take these pills urgently.
04:06Three pills, two times per day, okay?
04:10Sorry.
04:11Can I take any other treatment with no pills?
04:15Listen, these are safe.
04:16Don't worry.
04:17You don't have any heart conditions or anything I should know about, right?
04:22No.
04:23Okay, then you're safe.
04:25Emily, come on.
04:33James, can you get me some water, please?
04:35Sure, honey.
04:41Doctor.
04:42What?
04:43I'm pregnant.
04:45What?
04:47Can I take these medications?
04:50Why didn't you mention this earlier?
04:52Of course not.
04:53If you're pregnant, then I...
04:57I have to switch you to this typical treatment.
04:59Take this.
05:02So, get well soon.
05:04Thank you very much.
05:06Have a nice day.
05:09What is this?
05:10Why did the doctor change prescription?
05:15Typical treatment will be also effective.
05:18Oh, no, no, no.
05:19Look, you're all red.
05:21It's gonna take longer.
05:23If you wanna show up at grandfather's birthday like this,
05:26he'll think that I abused you.
05:28Don't worry.
05:29I will explain him everything.
05:30No, no, no.
05:31I should go and bring back the doctor.
05:33No, no, please.
05:34Wait, please.
05:35It's me.
05:36I told him to change my medication.
05:39I didn't wanna tell you, but...
05:42I had...
05:45stomach aches.
05:47These explanations were enough for James.
05:50I wanted to get rid of the rash as soon as possible,
05:53so I started applying the cream
05:55when James suddenly showed concern.
05:58Honey.
06:00Are you sure you don't want me to help you?
06:04Take it, if you wanna help.
06:06No.
06:08Ask politely.
06:11Okay.
06:16Darling, please.
06:17I can't reach my back.
06:19Could you help me?
06:20Why are you playing so weird?
06:24But you said ask me nicely.
06:26James pretended to be annoyed,
06:28but his heart was racing.
06:30I knew him well,
06:31so I could almost read his mind.
06:33He thought,
06:34could he handle it
06:35if I was so tender with someone else?
06:38James's fingers gently touched my skin,
06:41tickling me.
06:42His breath on my ears was irresistibly enticing.
06:46But we were interrupted by the driver.
06:51Sorry.
06:52The car is waiting for you.
06:54Sorry.
06:55The car is waiting by the gate, sir.
06:57Oh.
06:58We will go to the mall.
07:00Aren't you working today?
07:01No.
07:02Grandfather's birthday's soon,
07:03so we need a gift.
07:08As soon as we entered the store,
07:10I heard a familiar voice calling out to us.
07:12James!
07:14I turned and saw Anna.
07:16I was shocked,
07:17almost unable to believe my eyes.
07:19Anna was sitting in a wheelchair.
07:22How could this happen?
07:23I had never heard anyone mention
07:25that she had a disability.
07:27I thought she was a dancer.
07:29Astonished by this revelation,
07:31I stood there for a while,
07:33unable to react.
07:35Emily?
07:36Anna?
07:38Are you cold?
07:39I'll give you my jacket.
07:40Yes.
07:45I'm so glad that you're here.
07:47I came to pick out
07:49some birthday presents for your grandfather.
07:52Grandfather?
07:53Will you help me with that?
07:55Of course.
07:59Sandy,
08:00can you please hand me some water?
08:02Oh, yeah.
08:05Oh, I'm sorry, ma'am.
08:06Looks like I've run out of water.
08:08Oh, no worries.
08:10I'll get it.
08:11As soon as James left,
08:12Anna released Sandy.
08:14Left alone,
08:15I wanted to speak,
08:17but Anna beat me to it.
08:20Looks like you really didn't know
08:22about my condition.
08:23No.
08:24Of course not.
08:26Everyone kept quiet
08:28on grandfather's command.
08:31Who in this family
08:33would dare to disobey
08:35his direct orders?
08:37What does grandpa have to do with this?
08:39Your mother saved him,
08:41and he was willing
08:43to do everything for you
08:45to be the part of his family.
08:47Even blackmailing his grandson?
08:50Or breaking up lovers?
08:53Or...
08:54No.
08:55I don't believe you.
09:09Oh, my God!
09:10What's going on here?
09:11She pushed me,
09:13and she said
09:14that she will not sign any papers.
09:17Are you okay?
09:19Since when is it acceptable
09:21for a mistress
09:23to hug another woman's husband?
09:26How James will explain his mother
09:28about his and Anna's relation.
