00:00 Thank you for marrying me, Mr. Roberts.
00:02 I have two simple requests from you.
00:05 Go ahead.
00:06 First, unless you don't have a choice, please don't reveal our relationship to anyone just yet.
00:13 Second, I'd appreciate it if you don't interfere in my personal matters.
00:27 After having a little too much to drink at her bachelorette party, Emma Miller was very sleepy.
00:32 Her fiancé Nathan Davis picked her up and brought her back to their apartment.
00:36 He tucked her into bed in the dimly lit room where she lay for a few minutes, unaware of her surroundings.
00:42 Then, coming to her senses, she forced her eyes open against the pain of an excruciating headache.
00:48 As her vision cleared, she could just make out the figures of a man and a woman across the room, kissing passionately.
00:55 Emma tried to make sense of what she was seeing as she looked at the two kissing figures, who remained unaware that she had awoken.
01:02 She felt anger begin to boil inside her.
01:05 Stop messing around.
01:08 We only just went to sleep.
01:14 I'm afraid she will wake up.
01:16 You're getting married tomorrow.
01:19 Give yourself to me tonight.
01:24 Babe. Babe. You are such a troublemaker.
01:29 Let's go to the other room.
01:32 No. Let's do it right here.
01:39 I want to do it in front of her.
01:42 Emma tried to hold back her tears, but could feel them slowly trickling down her face.
01:48 How could the man she was supposed to marry the next day be cheating on her?
01:52 And right in front of her, too.
01:54 Let's go. Let's go into the bathroom. Isn't the tub your favorite place?
01:59 Fine.
02:01 You go in, and I'll fill up the tub.
02:06 Amber nudged his chest, pushing him toward the bathroom.
02:10 Once Nathan had left the room, she tiptoed over to Emma and whispered.
02:21 Emma.
02:22 I'm not going to let you and Nathan get married tomorrow.
02:27 I'm pregnant.
02:28 And he's mine.
02:31 Emma balled her hands into fists as she tried to process what was happening.
02:50 But once she heard the moans of the couple in the bathroom, she realized that her world had fallen apart.
02:56 Three years ago, Emma had been a top model in New York.
03:03 She had given up everything to pursue her relationship with Nathan,
03:07 even handing over her hard-earned modeling work to Amber.

03:38 But she realized everything she had done had all gone toward preparing someone else to steal the man of her dreams.
03:45 No. Is this a dream? A horrible nightmare?
03:53 Halfway through the night, Amber complained of feeling unwell and led Nathan out of the apartment.
04:00 He didn't reappear, even though he was supposed to be marrying Emma the next morning.
04:06 The next day, just as planned, Emma waited for Nathan outside the town hall,
04:11 beautifully dressed in a pink gown, a bouquet in her hand, getting restless when she received a call from Nathan.
04:17 Nathan?
04:18 Amber was injured on stage and needs me. Let's put off the wedding until tomorrow.
04:22 Nathan? Nathan?

05:07 She felt a jolt as she recognized him. He was the CEO of Kaleidoscope Entertainment,
05:31 Eric Roberts.
05:33 Mr. Roberts, Miss Rose hasn't arrived yet. She's ten minutes late.
05:38 Well, then call her family and tell them that if they can't even be on time to a wedding, then don't bother coming at all.
05:45 But your father was very insistent that you get married today, no matter what.
05:49 He doesn't care to who, but he's made it very clear that he's done waiting for you to settle down.
05:53 Then pick someone else from my contact list. I'll give you half an hour.
05:58 Eric Roberts had so much power that he could simply choose any woman he wanted.
06:03 Unfortunately, even though he was one of the most eligible bachelors in town, he didn't seem to want anyone in particular.
06:10 His only priority seemed to be getting his family off his back.
06:14 Suddenly, an idea came to Emma.
06:18 Mr. Roberts.
06:22 Mr. Roberts, your bride hasn't arrived yet and my groom has abandoned me.
06:27 Why don't we get married instead?
06:29 The assistant couldn't believe his ears. How was this woman so daring?
06:34 You haven't heard details.
06:35 Did a quick search for her name and showed the information to his boss.
06:39 The assistant already knew who Emma was.
06:41 Let's get married.
06:44 Emma felt that meeting Eric was the luckiest thing that could have happened to her.
06:50 He had no reason to use her. They wouldn't need to spend much time together and he wouldn't require her to love him.
06:56 He had no shortage of other women who would sleep with him, so she wouldn't have to worry about fulfilling that part of the marriage.
07:03 Most importantly, marrying him would make Nathan regret what he'd done.
07:08 The wedding passed in a blur.
07:21 In less than 30 minutes, Emma held the marriage certificate in her hands.
07:26 From now on, she was a wife and Eric Roberts was her husband.
07:31 Mr. Roberts, can we talk?
07:34 Just get in the car first.
07:36 Thank you for marrying me, Mr. Roberts.
07:41 If you need anything from me in return, please let me know.
07:45 I have two simple requests from you.
07:48 Go ahead.
07:50 First, unless you don't have a choice, please don't reveal our relationship to anyone just yet.
07:56 Second, I'd appreciate it if you don't interfere in my personal matters.
08:02 But don't worry, I have no intention of having a relationship with another man.
08:07 I can promise you these two things for now.
08:11 But after a six month trial, I will publicly announce our marriage.
08:17 That's fine with me.
08:19 Also, I don't think a married couple should live apart.
08:22 Take a few days to pack your belongings.
08:26 But then I'd like you to move in with me.
08:28 My assistant, Luke, will get in touch with you to give you the address.
08:32 I agree.
08:47 Mr. Roberts, would you like to go back to the office or would you like to go back to the mansion to give the family the news?
08:53 Follow Emma and report her every move to me.
08:57 Yes, Mr. Roberts.
09:04 As the president of an international entertainment agency, he had heard Emma's name before.
09:16 He remembered that she had once been a famous model.
09:19 Three years ago, she had rejected an offer from a top entertainment agency, Star King, and gotten herself blacklisted.
09:27 Eventually, she had announced that she was signing with Global Pictures Entertainment,
09:31 and rumors of her relationship with Global's boss, Nathan Davis, had begun to swirl around the industry.
09:37 But Emma's story had only just begun.
09:40 In all honesty, she had never realized she was so brave.
09:44 She had actually married a stranger, and what was done was done.
09:48 There was no point in having regrets.
09:50 Just as she was about to start the engine and head home, she received a phone call from Nathan.
09:55 Emma, where are you right now?
09:57 Out in front of City Hall, about to go home.
10:00 Amber has a very important show, and I need you to fill in for her right away.
10:05 I'll tell the makeup artist to provide you with a mask. That way no one can tell that it's you.
10:11 Since Amber is injured, you will have to take this on.
10:14 Didn't you say Amber got hurt on stage?
10:17 If so, then the media should already know she's injured.
10:20 True. But I already told them that she's still going to show up, even with her injuries.
10:26 I told you what I need you to do. So just do it.
10:31 He was clearly talking to her as her boss, not as her fiancé.
10:38 Okay. Let me know the time and address, and I'll head over there now.
10:43 Thank you, Emma.
10:45 You and I are about to get married, and Amber's star is on the rise.
10:50 Who can help give her career a boost?
10:53 I'll give her a boost for sure.
10:55 I'll hang up then. Let's have dinner later.
10:58 He was absolutely shameless.
11:03 In the past, Emma had done stupid things like this for Amber, without even realizing she was being used.
11:10 But she wasn't going to do it anymore.
11:12 Nathan wants you two standing for that B-grade model? Is he joking?
11:19 If you hadn't stepped away from the spotlight, she wouldn't even be working.
11:24 Lisa, I've already agreed.
11:27 Are you really going to do this?
11:31 You don't need to worry. I won't be stupid. I won't let them use me.
11:36 Emma, are you saying you have a plan?
11:38 Lisa, from now on, I'm only trusting you. Can you help me with something?
11:43 Of course.
11:45 Amber is desperate to convince the media that she's attending the show,
11:48 because she doesn't want anything to hurt her chances for the Top 10 Model Awards.
11:52 Can you help me by paying a visit to the hospital?
11:56 I see what you're getting at. You want to prove that she was still at the hospital during the show,
12:02 and reveal it to the public.
12:04 No. I have even bigger news.
12:07 She's pregnant, and the child is Nathan's.
12:11 I want to tell the media that Nathan used me over and over again to fill in for Amber at her shows.
12:17 But I need your help finding the evidence.
12:21 Lisa bought bitterly such a shameless couple of cheats, and they've been using Emma like a puppet.
12:26 Don't worry, Emma. You can count on me.
12:29 Emma felt unusually calm. She was going to treat them like they had treated her.
12:34 Emma quickly gathered her belongings and drove to the venue for the show to meet with Amber's assistant, Gary.
12:41 What took you so long? Quick, and get your makeup done.
12:45 What type of show is it today?
12:49 Nothing special.
12:50 On her way there, Emma had done some research on the show.
12:53 She knew that it was far more than nothing special.
12:56 In fact, it was a jewellery show for the famous French brand, Belle-Ame.
13:01 Because Amber is doing so well, she has her own makeup room.
13:05 Which you can use.
13:08 Here's the schedule. You will appear in the grand finale wearing this piece of jewellery.
13:17 You have got 30 minutes. Fast.
13:19 The show starts in one hour.
13:25 I'm going to this jewellery show. Make it happen.
13:28 Of course, Mr. Roberts.
13:30 Emma's makeup was complete, and she was now standing in front of the mirror in the dressing room.
13:36 Her dress was white, tight-fitting, and long.
13:39 It was simple, but elegant.
13:42 Her beautiful golden mask gave off a mysterious aura.
13:46 She was absolutely stunning.
13:48 Gary, Amber's assistant, was speechless.
13:51 He thought, even if Emma stands absolutely still, she'll be the centre of attention.
13:56 Amber will certainly get the contract now.
13:59 Did Nathan really think that a mask would hide her identity?
14:03 Although what she had in mind was a little extreme,
14:06 Emma was going to give the cheating couple the surprise of their lives.
