Transcript
00:00I hate my cheating husband and want to divorce him, but my dangerous mother-in-law will get me killed if I leave him.
00:06Should I disclose my pregnancy to save my life?
00:08I'm filing for divorce.
00:12You... you what?
00:23James Taylor is sick in an early termination of the marriage contract.
00:26I know we were supposed to be married for three years, according to the contract, but Anna returned early, so...
00:37So you're leaving me?
00:39I'm releasing you from this obligation.
00:41And look, honey, finally you can be free. You can live your own life. I promise.
00:48I'll agree to any terms regarding the property division.
00:54Do you really want this?
00:56Yes.
01:00It's good that we didn't have a child together.
01:04Yeah, of course. It's all for the best. We will divorce without any unnecessary problems.
01:12After that conversation, I couldn't bring myself to tell James about the pregnancy. Suddenly, I felt nauseous again.
01:25Are you okay?
01:27Yes, I need to go.
01:33I felt miserable locked in a room in my own home. How long had I been sitting here? An hour, two?
01:40My thoughts were interrupted by James.
01:44Hi. You know the fact? Grandpa will never agree with divorce if I'll mention to him about it.
01:55So it's better for all of us if you'll do it.
02:02Okay, I'll do it. But don't make it seems like our decision.
02:09I was just a girl from a troubled family. My mother was a nurse and my father was a gambler.
02:16Such a family could never match up to the glorious Taylor's family.
02:21One day, my mother witnessed a terrible accident and selflessly saved two people, James' father and grandfather.
02:32In return, the grandfather promised to take care of me. And when I was left an orphan, he arranged my marriage to his grandson.
02:47Hey, you shouldn't be upset. I warned you before we get married that I have my own love.
02:58Yeah, you're right.
03:01Why is your face so pale? Are you alright?
03:05It's not serious. Don't worry. It's just like I've got this period.
03:28Emily.
03:29They're the same. There's been a slight problem with your anniversary gift.
03:36So I've ordered a new one and Alex will deliver it to you soon.
03:48When James left, I fell into a deep sleep for a while.
03:59Hello, ma'am.
04:00Oh, hello.
04:02This is given to you by Mr. James Order.
04:05Well, thank you, Alex.
04:08My pleasure.
04:10Last month, I saw a pair of jade earrings in a jewelry store that would perfectly match the jade bracelet grandfather had given me.
04:19Emerald green, beautiful and delicate. I fell in love with them at first sight.
04:25James had promised to give them to me on our anniversary.
04:30The gift box was elegantly wrapped, but it wasn't the gift I was expecting.
04:36Please, pass on my thanks to James.
04:41Certainly. I'm free to go?
04:44Yeah. Thank you.
04:46Alex, wait.
04:47Yeah?
04:48I baked this cake, so...
04:50Oh, no, no, no. I'm really sorry, but Mr. James precisely asked me not to bring anything.
04:56I meant sweet.
05:02You do love cakes, ma'am, don't you?
05:06Oh, yes. Yes, don't worry.
05:10I'll keep it. Thank you.
05:14Bye.
05:17I always knew that James didn't have a sweet tooth.
05:21That's why I had personally prepared this cake.
05:25It was vanilla, but not sweet at all.
05:36Hello, James. Thank you for your gift.
05:39I won't be coming back tonight.
05:42Oh.
05:45Oh. All right.
05:48So, candlelit dinner?
05:51Bye, Emily.
05:53I couldn't believe it.
05:55On the day of our second anniversary, my husband was having a candlelit dinner with another woman.
06:02This fact instantly made me feel defeated, hopeless to the core.
06:07I had already completely lost in this competition with Anna.
06:15I felt a wrenching pain in my stomach from the egg allergy.
06:20No one in this world knew about the allergy except my mother.
06:24I promised myself that this was the last time I would be this crazy and desperate.
06:29I was sick.
06:33I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
06:37Daddy doesn't love Mom, but we're gonna be okay.
06:45On this night, I tossed and turned for a long time.
06:49And just when I was almost falling asleep, Samantha called.
06:59Hello?
07:00James and I are on Third Avenue.
07:02James?
07:03He's completely wasted.
07:05He's not with Anna?
07:06Come and meet us. We're coming from the garden.
07:10James was very drunk, sleeping in the backseat.
07:14He looked as handsome as ever.
07:16I thought that some people in this world remain perfect even when they were drunk.
07:21Like James.
07:24Samantha? Why is he so drunk?
07:26Wasn't he supposed to be with Anna?
07:28What?
07:30Do you really want your husband to spend a night with another woman?
07:34Husband is just too much.
07:36We already agreed to divorce.
07:38Oh.
07:40Come to your senses.
07:43Have you lost your mind?
07:45What divorce you're talking about?
07:47Are you really ready to let him go?
07:50That he's ready.
07:52And I recall that you were not very invested in this marriage.
07:56What happened?
07:57I admit I didn't like you at the beginning, but you two are married and...
08:02And you need to make an effort until, you know...
08:05Until what?
08:06Until it interferes.
08:07Interferes?
08:12You're nothing like her and that's your huge advantage.
08:17So...
08:20This is your husband. Take him home and let me go.
08:28Samantha helped James out of the car and then left.
08:32As we approached the house's entrance, we encountered James' father, Mark.
08:39Dad? What are you doing here?
08:42Well, well, well.
08:44Your wife is dragging her intoxicated husband.
08:49It's disgraceful.
08:50Dad, please. Don't blame James.
08:54In our celebration, he had a drink or two.
08:58In every toast in our honor.
09:00It would have been great if there was a reason.
09:06Maybe... Maybe you would like to come in?
09:08I didn't intend to come so late, but your grandfather and I got held up with the work.
09:15This is a small gift from us.
09:20Thank you, Dad.
09:22Thanks, Grandpa.
09:24We wish both of you happiness and love.
09:27Happiness and love? Oh, thank you so much.
09:39Don't let him embarrass you.
