What we are doing is wrong!

Shut up.

You know you want this.

If your husband is willing to come back and comfort you, I'll leave right now.

Silas, when are you coming home? I need you.

I'm working late at the office.

Don't bother me unless it's important.

So the reason he won't touch me is because he has someone else outside.

Then why did he marry me in the first place?

Divorce him.

You still have me.

But I can't divorce him. I have to have his child.

Bester, I'm not going to divorce him.

But he's already cheating on you! Look at this proof!

Look at these photos!

He is my husband.

I want to hear him admit it himself.

He leaves you alone in an empty room when you're at your most vulnerable, and

he deserves to be your husband?

Chloe, can you look at me instead?

It's impossible between us.

You shouldn't have to live with such grievances.

I won't force you.

No matter what you choose, I'll always be on your side.

Married for three years and still not pregnant.

You are completely useless.

Mom, Silas won't even sleep with me. How can I get pregnant?

Then what's the point of marrying you?

You don't even know how to seduce a man. What a waste of a pretty face.

If you don't get pregnant within three months, I'll have your mother thrown out

of the hospital.

My mom has cancer.

Please don't stop her treatment. I will definitely find a way to get pregnant.

Vesper.

Thank you for loving me.

But I have to save my mom.

Chloe, why aren't you asleep yet?

I was waiting for you.

Chloe, I'm really tired from working late today. Let's do this some other

time.

Just this once, please?

I need you.

You really would do anything for money, wouldn't you?

Chloe, you acting so cheap right now only disgusts me. The moment our three

years are up, we are getting a divorce.

Silas, but do you know that I love you?

When I was in college, my family went bankrupt.

My Tosmos used it as an excuse to bully me, and Silas saved me.

Our families were old friends, and I had a crush on this handsome older brother

since I was ottle. After my family fell on hard times, all my relatives and

friends avoided me.

He was the only one who was still gentle with me.

That's when I fell for him.

My mom was diagnosed with cancer, and the massive medical bills crushed me.

I had no choice but to beg him for help.

He told me he just happened to need a contract wife.

His family's rules stated he had to be married for three years to inherit the

estate. Once the three years were up, we'd have a peaceful divorce.

I agreed immediately, secretly hoping that living together day and night for

three years would eventually warm his heart.

But his mother had another condition.

I had to give birth to a child before she would continue paying for my mom's

treatment. So the reason he hasn't touched me for three years isn't because

I didn't try hard enough, but because he's long been in love with someone

else.

I don't hope for love anymore.

For my mom to live, I must seduce him into sleeping with me before the

divorce, until I get pregnant.

Chloe?

We've been sleeping in separate rooms. Why did you sneak into my room this

morning? Mom's been hounding us to have a baby.

I just want to conceive a child.

I hate kids, and I'm never having one with you.

Know your place.

You're nothing more than a contractual pawn.

Damn it, I got hard for her.

Silas, you're gonna divorce her sooner or later.

Silas, what do you feel like eating tonight?

Today's a special day. I want to cook you a fancy feast.

Steak.

Come home early tonight, okay?

Wanna come street racing with me tonight?

You know it won't hurt to head back a little late.

She'll wait for me.

Sure.

Happy birthday, Chloe!

Who hurt you this bad?

It's nothing.

Thanks for coming to celebrate my birthday.

It's your birthday of all days and he still hasn't come home this late?

No answer.

Come on, I'll drive you to his office right now to find him.

It's fine.

He's probably just working overtime. We shouldn't bother him.

Chloe, are you scared to go because you might catch him with someone else? Why

do you keep lying to yourself?

Enough. It's my birthday. I just want to enjoy the day.

My bad.

I got you a present.

Do you love this painting too?

I really do.

It looks like a sunrise over the sea on the surface.

But it's really about love. Look at all these overflowing colors. They're all

full of affection.

You're the only one who gets my art.

You're Chloe?

I'm a huge fan of yours. My name's Vesper.

The Chloe I know is bright, upbeat, and lives for painting.

Why haven't you picked up a rush in three years?

What's the point of wasting time on this?

We've got more than enough money. The family will support you, so you don't

need to paint anymore.

I'm gonna start painting again.

How many things I loved have I given up for his empty love?

Maybe it's not too late to wake up now.

What the hell are you doing? Get out!

Well, look who finally decided to come home.

You were having the time of your life with some guy outside, and now you want

to act like you own your wife?

Chloe, who is this?

Who said you could bring random strangers into the house?

It's Chloe's birthday. I'm her friend here to celebrate.

How could you, her husband, forget her birthday?

Birthday gift.

This is a men's watch.

You're really trying to pass this on her? This must have been a gift someone

gave you, right? It's fine. I actually love this watch.

Thanks for your gift today. You should head home first. I'll treat you to

dinner another time. Simus, you're a total piece of trash!

Silas, what's wrong with you?

Listen to me.

Until our contract expires, you're mine.

That doesn't mean you get to cheat on me. She's just my friend.

Then come claim what's yours right now.

Thank God. I got pregnant on the first try.

This is for you.

For me?

I lost control that night when I was drunk.

This set of brushes is my apology. Forget everything that happened. Act

like nothing went down.

So that night was nothing more than a drunken mistake he thought money could

fix.

It's okay.

I've got my baby.

I need to tell Mom the good news.

Chloe, how have you been lately?

Does Simus treat you well?

Don't worry about me, Mom. Life's good.

Simus takes great care of me, and I'm pregnant.

You're going to be a grandma.

Really?

That's wonderful.

Now I can leave this world without any worries, knowing you have a child of

your own. Don't say stuff like that. You have to stay to watch the baby be born.

Who are you?

Do I know you?

It doesn't matter if you don't know me.

I'm here to get back what belongs to me.

What's yours?

That watch Silas brought home the other day is mine.

Hand it over.

Silas only grabbed it to shut you up. Take it off right now. You're lying!

He gave this to me for my birthday. I'm not giving it to you.

You're just the other person.

You really think you're his legitimate wife?

His family won't let him marry a man. That's why he wed you.

We would have gotten married if you weren't in the way. He and I are truly

in love. You're the real third wheel here.

What nonsense are you spouting?

My daughter!

Mom! Mom, talk to me!

Doctor!

Somebody help!

What terrible luck.

Chloe, your mother's condition is extremely critical.

The test results show her cancer has spread all over her body. She's getting

worse by the minute. We have to start the latest targeted medication

immediately, plus pay a huge ICU bill up front.

You need to get the money ready fast.

If we stop treatment, she won't last half a month.

Mom, I'm begging you. Can you lend me more money?

My mom's cancer spread. We need cash for treatment right now. Borrow money?

Chloe? We've already dumped over a million U.S. dollars on your mother

these past three years. I'll pay every cent back.

I promise I will. It's a bottomless pit.

Throwing money at a lost cause is pointless.

You'd be better off letting her go instead of dragging Silas down with your

mess. Mom!

I'm pregnant! I'm carrying Sima's child! Please help my mom for the baby's sake!

Pregnant? We'll run a DNA test once the baby's safely born. I won't give you a

single dollar right now.

Half a month.

How am I supposed to come up with that much money?

Silas, he's my only hope.

The number you have reached is not answering. Please try your calling

later. Pick up, Simus. Please just answer the phone.

Hello, it's Chloe.

Where's Simus right now? It's an emergency. I need to find him.

Ma'am, the CEO isn't at the office. He went over to Mr. Liam's villa.

Who's out there?

Nobody important. Just some pushy salesman.

i'm begging you it hurts my stomach hurts so bad my baby

is

someone calling my name out there

Vester, please save my baby.

Hold on, Chloe! I'm taking you straight to the hospital!

You're awake?

I'm so sorry.

The doctors did everything they could. We couldn't save the baby.

Chloe, what?

Did she finally show your face?

She knelt out in that brutal rain for hours and lost our baby because of you.

What were you doing back then?

Lost the baby?

You were pregnant?

How did you miscarriage?

Chloe, I'm so sorry.

I had no idea you were outside the villa if I'd known.

You didn't know?

You were too busy fooling around with someone else on the couch to hear me

screaming for help.

I gave up everything for you, and all I got was pain after pain.

Now even my child's gone because of you.

I've had enough.

I want a divorce.

Let's get divorced, Silas.

I never want to lay eyes on you again. Chloe, I'm so sorry.

I had no clue you were pregnant.

We're still young. We can have kids again.

I'll treat you right from now on. Don't ask for a divorce.

Don't touch me.

You have no right to mention children.

You vicious shrew.

You couldn't even carry a baby to term and you dare hit my son? Watch your

mouth. Your precious son left her out in a terrarial rain. That's why she lost

the baby.

Miscarriage? It just means you're worthless.

Honestly, it's for the best.

The doctor told me earlier.

The heavy bleeding and hours spent freezing in the rain left your uterus

severely damaged.

Chloe, you'll never conceive another child.

You're completely useless now.

No! This can't be real!

Chloe, calm down.

Don't listen to her lies.

A hen that can't lay eggs has no place in our family.

Sima, sign the divorce papers right now and throw her out of this hospital.

Mom.

I won't divorce Chloe.

She's mine in life and mine in death.

She's not going anywhere without my permission.

Simus! Have you lost your mind? She can't have kids anymore.

What do you need this useless woman for?

Mom, this is between her and me.

Leave first.

Guards, escort my mother out.

You want to divorce me and run off with Vesper?

Chloe, don't even dream about it. What else do you want from me?

You killed my baby and ruined my body. Just let me go!

Have you forgotten your mother's still in my hospital?

I know her cancer's spread, and she needs expensive imported targeted drugs

plus ICU care.

If you walk out that door and file for divorce...

I'll cut all her treatment immediately, and kick her out onto the street.

Silas, you monster!

Your mother's life is in my hands.

Her fate depends entirely on you. Be a proper Mrs. Silas, or you'll be

arranging her funeral.

Fine.

I won't file for divorce.

Don't be afraid, Chloe.

No matter what it costs, I'll get your mother out of here and set you free from

this devil for good.

Silas, if you insist on dragging me down to hell with you, we'll see who ends up

buried with nothing in the end.

Yes, name your price.

If they can take Iris and provide top-clear targeted therapy, I'll

transfer the funds right away.

All right, I'll wait for final confirmation from their overseas

specialists.

You haven't fully recovered yet.

I'll tell the kitchen to make nourishing soups for you tomorrow.

Thank you.

Simus, I get so scared staying alone. Can I move in to live with you?

Liam, cut the act. Chloe's still recovering.

Well, look who it is. The barren woman who lost her baby.

Does it feel good clinging to the title of Lady of the House?

Enjoy your meal.

I'm full.

at the USB drive.

It's full of proof that Silas's family laundered money, plus records of

Margaret abusing her power to squeeze business partners and drive rivals to

suicide.

This is enough to ruin all of them. This was far too dangerous for you. I've

already arranged a medical helicopter from overseas and covered all the

medical bills.

Say the word, and we can take your mother away anytime.

The treatment costs an astronomical amount.

I can't let you shoulder all of this.

My money is yours.

All I want is for you to be free.

Ma'am, the madam gave strict orders. I know no one can move Mrs. Iris out of

this ward.

Get out of my way.

How dare you barge in uninvited!

Take a good look, dear mother-in-law.

You know exactly how you seized that South City land and what drove that

supplier to jump off a building.

Where did you get these?

What are you trying to do?

Sign the release order to transfer my mother immediately.

If you don't, these files will hit every news outlet and land on the police

chief's desk in five minutes.

You dare threaten me? You ungrateful bitch!

Go ahead and test me.

I've already lost my child.

I don't mind dragging your entire family down with me.

Your mom's safe now. Next, we handle your business.

Silas, I want a divorce.

Are you insane?

What about your mother's life? My mother's already abroad.

The evidence I have is more than enough to destroy your family.

You have nothing left to threaten me with.

Sign it.

Chloe, are you just playing hard to get?

You loved me so much. How could you really want a divorce?

Let's not split up. I'll cut ties with Liam for good.

Don't touch me.

You disgust me.

You wretched bitch!

You tricked me into sending that old hag away.

Silas, never let her leave. I'll destroy her!

Mrs. Margaret, if your family wants to avoid fraud and money laundering charges

tomorrow, I suggest you order your son to sign the papers immediately.

Otherwise, we'll see you in court.

You people!

How dare you!

Do you really have to be this ruthless?

Compared to everything you've done to me, this is nowhere near enough.

Let's go home.

Okay.

Simus, that woman who stood in our way is finally gone. It's just us now. Get

out! All of you, get out!

Your paintings have so much soul now. Your solo exhibition next month will

shock the entire art scene.

All thanks to my best agent.

Sir, these are recent photos of Miss Chloe.

She's mine.

She used to only have eyes for me. Why is she smiling at someone else now?

Silemus, why have you been avoiding me these days? That woman's gone. Why won't

you even look at me?

Don't mention her!

This is all my fault. I wronged her.

Chloe, you just won't leave us alone.

Chloe, it's been three years.

The second I saw you at the art exhibition, I fell for you.

I watched you walk into that hell, watched you suffer, and my heart ached

worse than yours.

You're free at last.

I don't want to just be your friend anymore, Chloe.

Let me take care of you. Let me love you.

Please?

Yes.

Sorry, sir. You're not welcome here.

Move! I need to see Chloe!

I'm her husband!

Ex-husband.

The divorce papers are official. Stop putting on this love-sin act.

Let her come down to me. I know she's still upset. I'll make it up to her

somehow. Make it up to her?

With your tainted body that cheated on her?

Or the cruelty that killed her baby?

All the useless gifts you sent were blocked and thrown away by her. Get

lost. Don't dirty the entrance to our place.

Just leave, Silas.

I'm with Vosper now.

I don't believe you. I won't believe it!

Chloe! Who let you in? Get out.

Chloe, I'm sorry. I truly know how wrong I was.

These months without you have been pure agony.

Come back to me.

I don't care that you can't have kids anymore. I only need you.

You don't care?

Silas, do you think you're the only tragic lover in the world?

You killed my baby, threatened me with my mother's life, and now you say all

you want is me?

Watching you break like this brings me nothing but satisfaction.

Security! Drag him out!

Chloe! I won't give up! I'll never let you be with this woman!

Does he think a few apologies can erase all the hell he put me through?

He made me lose my baby and tortured my mother, and he'll pay back every bit a

thousand times over.

Chloe, your eyes look cold.

Promise me you'll cut all contact with that madman.

I don't want you to get tangled up in revenge and hurt yourself again.

Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.

I just want him to taste what it's like to be treated like trash and abandoned

completely.

VIP booth at the bar.

Chloe.

You're here.

Sit down.

Chloe, you're giving me a second, aren't you? You still love me.

Silas, did you really miss me all these months?

I did.

I've been driven crazy missing you.

I'll do anything if you come back to me.

Then would you be willing to make some sacrifices for me?

Silas, the gates of hell have opened for you.

Chloe, I know you still have feelings for me. Did you ask me here because you

want us to start over?

You want a restart?

It all depends on how sincere you are.

I'll do anything you ask. If you come back to me, I'd even give you my life.

I don't want your life.

Take your clothes off.

Lie down.

Hold your hands out.

Chloe, punish me all you want. I'll take every bit of it.

Punish? No.

This is discipline.

Hit me again.

Silas, your body's been touched by so many people.

It disgusts me.

No one else. Only you from now on. I'm yours, Chloe. I'll always be yours.

Chloe? Where are you going? Untie me right now.

Untie you?

Stay tied up like that. Chloe, what do you mean? We just... Just what?

Makeup? Silas, are you out of your mind?

I only used you to release my desire, nothing more.

You're just a dog I can whip whenever I want. No.

That can't be. You were just... Free fiber of my being.

This was all my revenge.

Chloe! You can't do this to me! Chloe!

Was it worth dirtying yourself just to get revenge on that scumbag?

This is only the beginning.

You shameless woman.

We're already divorced.

How dare you seduce my man?

Where's Silas?

Your man?

If you can't keep him on a leash, get him a dog collar.

He's upstairs in the master bedroom, naked and tied to the bed.

Go see for yourself if you want.

Simus! You liar!

You snuck off to see her and let her humiliate you like this?

Get out.

Who told you to come here?

Leave! Have you lost your mind?

She's just humiliating you.

I'm the one who truly loves you with all my heart.

Don't touch me!

If it weren't for you, Chloe never would have left me. This is all your fault!

What are you so smug about?

Do you really think he loves you?

He's just mad that what's his has taken away.

You're nothing but a barren waste of a woman.

Watch your filthy mouth.

Chloe, don't go. Let me explain. I didn't ask him to come. Stay away from

me. Watching you two lose your minds makes me sick to my stomach.

Vessler, let's leave. The air here is toxic.

Silas, look at me. Please just look at me. I'm the one who will never leave

you. Shut your mouth. I want no one but Chloe for the rest of my life. I'll drag

her down to hell with me if I have to.

Promise me you won't hurt yourself like that to get back at him again. It breaks

my heart to see you do this to yourself.

Fester, if I turn into a cold calculating monster, will you still love

me? No matter what you become, you'll always be my Chloe. As long as I'm here,

no one will ever hurt you again.

Chloe.

We need to talk.

What's there to talk about?

Haven't you bruised your pride enough?

This is between my wife and me.

No outsider gets a say in this.

Silas, we're divorced.

You're less than a stranger to me now.

I don't recognize that agreement. It doesn't count.

Chloe, I know you were just angry last night. Hit me. Yell at me all you want.

Just don't shut me out. Let go.

You're hurting me.

Touch her one more time and see what happens. Security!

Chloe, you think you can run away from me? I can cut off your mother's overseas

medical funds and pull all sponsors' gallery with a single word, leaving you

with nothing. Lay a finger on any of them and I'll expose every dirty secret

your family's hidden. We'll all burn together.

Fine, burn together. I'd die happy as long as I'm with you.

Put all these roses front and center.

This exhibition's for my wife.

Silas, have you no shame? Who's your wife? Get all this trash out of here

right now!

As long as I draw breath, you'll always carry my mark.

You're only with that woman to hide behind her protection.

Silas, what's the point of throwing yourself at someone who doesn't care

about you? What are you doing here? Mom sent me to fetch you for dinner.

Also, a little reminder for some washed-up ex-wife.

Silas and I are getting engaged soon.

Chloe, the Top International Art Foundation just approved full exclusive

sponsorship for your exhibition.

We don't need any garbage funding from here on on. Security, haul these wilted

roses and these two unwanted koa the Bildaving.

You really think you can shield her forever?

Not only can I protect her... I'll watch worms like you rot away in the gutter

where you belong.

I schemed and humiliated him, watched him lose his mind, thinking I'd feel

happy.

But why do I feel trapped in a mire, sinking deeper the more I struggle?

Lost in your thoughts again?

Vester, did I make a mistake?

If I hadn't been dead set on revenge, you wouldn't be dragged into this

corporate war.

Silly girl.

Having you by my side is the greatest reward I could ask for. Everything is

worth it, as long as you're okay.

No.

I shouldn't waste any more time on someone worthless.

Hatred eats people alive, and I want true freedom.

Why haven't you cut off Vessar's capital chain yet? What good are all of you?

Sir, Miss Vessler has joint guarantees from several major overseas consilums.

Our attacks have only sent our company's stock price plummeting, and the board of

directors is furious- Pour more money in, then! At all costs, I want to see

her kneel and beg me!

Silas, enough.

Are you going to throw the whole company away just for that woman?

Get out.

If you weren't always hanging around getting in my way, she wouldn't have

treated me so cruelly.

Am I in your way?

Silas, I've stood by you for three years. Now you shift all the blame onto

me? You don't deserve any love in this life. You're an extremely selfish

lunatic.

Why?

Why is everyone leaving me?

I loved her so deeply. Where did I go wrong?

Chloe, you finally agreed to meet me.

Just say the word, and I'll stop targeting Vesper at once.

Silas, I'm here today to put a definitive end to everything between us.

What end?

I won't seek revenge on you anymore.

I don't even want to waste hatred on you.

No, you're lying to me.

You hated me so deeply, there must still have feelings for me in your heart.

There's nothing left.

Silas, I don't love you, and I don't hate you either.

You mean absolutely nothing to me now.

Not even worth a single emotion.

It can't be.

You loved me for years. How can you stop loving me just like that?

You killed the Chloe who loved you with your own hands.

The woman standing in front of you now is someone you could never deserve.

Chloe! What am I supposed to do without you? I truly can't live without you!

Silas, rot away in your endless regret.

I'm done playing your game.

Miss Chloe, your new birth series has taken the global art world by storm.

Where did you draw your inspiration from? It came from a painful separation.

and a brave journey towards a new beginning.

Chloe, I saw all the news coverage about you. My daughter is the most brilliant

artist.

Mom, when you're fully recovered, I'll bring you back home.

Our family will never be separated again.

Good, good.

Is Vessler there?

Thank her for taking care of you all this time.

Don't worry, Auntie.

I'll take care of Chloe for the rest of my life.

Chloe.

My Chloe.

Get lost, all of you! Leave me alone!

Mrs. Margaret, you're suspected of multiple counts of commercial fraud and

money laundering. You need to come with us.

Silas!

Silas, save me!

I just got a call from back home.

Silas sold off all his assets to cover his mother's debts, then left the city

with her. No one knows where they went.

Do you still feel any regret?

All ties to that painful past have been swept away by the wind.

My eyes are only set on the future now. Then how about we plan a trip to see the

northern lights for our future?

I'd love that.

As long as you're with me.

Years ago, I thought marriage was the only destination for a woman.

For someone who never loved me, I broke my own wings and locked myself away in

hell.

I endured betrayal, humiliation, and even lost the chance to become a mother.

I thought my life was ruined beyond repair.

But then...

When I was trapped in my darkest hour a beam of light ran towards me without

hesitation She gathered my shattered soul and pieced it back together She

taught me I don't need anyone's pity because I am a work of art all on my own

This painting is dedicated to every woman lost in the dark

never give up saving yourself for when you learn to love who you are The person

who truly loves you will walk straight towards you. Buster, thank you for

walking towards me.

My marriage has come to an end, but my new life has only just begun.
