00:00Hello James thank you for your gift last month I saw a pair of jade earrings in a
00:12jewelry store that would perfectly match the jade bracelet grandfather had given
00:16me I fell in love with them at first sight James had promised to give them to
00:21me on our anniversary. I will be coming back tonight. Oh, alright. So, candlelit dinner? Bye Emily. I couldn't
00:34believe it on the day of our second anniversary my husband was having a
00:39candlelit dinner with another woman this fact instantly made me feel defeated
00:45hopeless to the core I had already completely lost in this competition with
00:51Anna
00:56I felt a wrenching pain in my stomach from the egg allergy no one in this
01:01world knew about the allergy except my mother I promised myself that this was
01:06the last time I would be this crazy and desperate I was sick
01:15on this night I tossed and turned for a long time and just when I was almost
01:20falling asleep Samantha called
01:29hello? James and I are on 3rd Avenue. James? He's completely wasted. He's not with Anna?
01:36Come and meet us. We're coming from the garden.
01:41James was very drunk sleeping in the backseat he looked as handsome as ever I
01:47thought that some people in this world remain perfect even when they were drunk
01:51like James. Samantha? Why is he so drunk? Wasn't he supposed to be with Anna? What?
02:00Do you really want your husband to spend a night with another woman? Husband is
02:05just too much. We already agreed to divorce. I'm filing for divorce.
02:14You... You what? James Taylor is seeking an early termination of the marriage
02:20contract. I know we were supposed to be married for three years according to the
02:27contract but Anna returned early so... So you're leaving me? I'll agree to any
02:34terms regarding the property division. Come to your senses. Have you lost your
02:41mind? What divorce you're talking about? Are you really ready to let him go?
02:47But he's ready. You're nothing like her and that's your
02:52huge advantage. So this is your husband. Take him home and let me go.
03:05Samantha helped James out of the car and then left.
03:22Yes? Emily? Is that you? It's Anna. She's looking for you. I'm sorry I crossed the
03:35line. Hello? Yes. Okay, I'll be there. Did Anna misunderstand everything? No, no, no.
03:49I already explained to her everything. Okay. I'm your husband. You're my wife. It's
03:55normal that we can walk together. Honey? What's on your face?
04:09Oh, I have a slight allergy. I've taken some meds and this allergy will pass in
04:16a few days. Are you sure? It looks serious. Yes, don't worry. I won't delay to visit
04:22grandpa. We manage everything right now and you can be with Anna.
04:31I don't think that it's the right moment to visit grandpa because he's ill now
04:37and it's gonna be dangerous for him. You think it will be better to tell him
04:43about our divorce after celebration? No, no, no. I think it's gonna be better to call doctor
04:49and show him your face. While the doctor was examining me, James was pacing from side to
04:56side like a pendulum, creating an anxious atmosphere. So, maybe you know what cursed
05:02the allergy? Yes, it's food allergy. Did you have medical treatment before? No. So, you have to take
05:10these pills patiently. Three pills, two times per day, okay? Sorry, can I take any other treatment
05:19with no pills? Listen, these are safe. Don't worry. You don't have any heart conditions or anything I
05:24should know about, right? No. Okay, then you're safe. Emily, come on.
05:39James, can you get me some water, please? Sure, honey.
05:47Doctor. What? I'm pregnant. What? Can I take these medications?
05:56Why didn't you mention this earlier? Of course not. If you're pregnant, then I...
06:03I have to switch you to this typical treatment. Take this. Thank you. So,
06:09get well soon. Thank you very much. Thank you. Have a nice day. Thank you. I wanted to get rid
06:15of the rash as soon as possible, so I started applying the cream when James suddenly showed
06:20concern. Honey, are you sure you don't want me to help you? Take it if you want to help.
06:32James pretended to be annoyed, but his heart was racing. I knew him well,
06:37so I could almost read his mind. He thought, could he handle it if I was so tender with someone else?
06:46Sorry, the car is waiting by the gate, sir. Oh, we will go to the mall.
06:52Aren't you working today? No. Grandfather's birthday's soon, so we need a gift.
07:00As soon as we entered the store, I heard a familiar voice calling out to us.
07:04James! I turned and saw Anna. I was shocked, almost unable to believe my eyes. Anna was sitting
07:12in a wheelchair. How could this happen? I had never heard anyone mention that she had a disability.
07:20I thought she was a dancer. Astonished by this revelation, I stood there for a while, unable to react.
07:27Emily? Anna?
07:31Sandy, can you please hand me some water? Oh, yeah.
07:36Oh, I'm sorry, ma'am. Looks like I ran out of water. Oh, no worries. I'll get it. As soon as
07:43James left, Anna released Sandy. Left alone, I wanted to speak, but Anna beat me to it.
07:51Everyone kept quiet on Grandfather's command. Who in this family would dare to disobey his direct
08:00orders? What does Grandpa have to do with this? Your mother saved him, and he was willing to do
08:08everything for you to be a part of his family. Even blackmailing his grandson, or breaking up
08:16lovers, or... I got into a car accident two years ago, when I was driving to your wedding,
08:28and I almost died. I was supposed to finish this nonsense, but I ended up with a disability.
08:39No, I don't believe you. Why he would lie to me? Before our wedding, he told me that it was a
08:46voluntary decision, and that you two were no longer together.
08:54We are not together? Yes.
09:09Oh my God, what's going on here? She pushed me, and she said that she will not sign
09:16any papers. Are you okay? Since when is it acceptable for a mistress to hug another woman's
09:25husband in public? Mom, what are you doing here? What is she doing here with you? Linda,
09:32I'm sorry. I wanted to pick a birthday gift for Grandfather and James. You are not invited to
09:40the party. And as for the gift, we all know what Grandpa wants. A great grandchild, which has
09:50nothing to do with you. Will James be able to tell her mom about the divorce?
