Short filmTranscript
00:00:00My name is Caroline, and I'm a top lawyer.
00:00:09Five years ago, my parents fell to their deaths after being framed by the mother of the man
00:00:14that I loved the most.
00:00:16Instead of feeling guilty, she insulted me.
00:00:22The man I loved.
00:00:23Cheated on me when I was pregnant.
00:00:31After ten years, I want to find the truth and get revenge.
00:00:36Mom, what are you thinking?
00:00:40I'm thinking about what I could whip up for us if you win the competition today.
00:00:49Awesome!
00:00:51Will Mom figure out that I entered the AI contest just to find Dad?
00:00:57Come on, Mom, we're going to be late for the competition!
00:01:01Oh, okay, okay!
00:01:14Boss, J.C. Laughlin just said yes to our cooperation, and I heard that the top lawyer, Kay, is back.
00:01:19It seems that she has a close connection with J.C.
00:01:21With J.C.'s help, I have a better chance of taking back STM Group.
00:01:25Let's set up a meeting.
00:01:26I want to see her.
00:01:27How is that AI contest you organized going?
00:01:29This year's contestants are impressive.
00:01:31I'm planning on picking the winner to AIM's project this year.
00:01:33Let me know about that meeting.
00:01:49I'm going to meet Kay.
00:02:03Caroline?
00:02:06You must be wrong.
00:02:07That woman ran off ten years ago.
00:02:09She would never come back.
00:02:16Ben, hi!
00:02:17Did you get any new information?
00:02:19Nine years ago, when the founder of STM got sick out of nowhere.
00:02:23That's when the internal fighting started.
00:02:25I think your parents' deaths are connected to all of this.
00:02:27Who's involved in the conflict?
00:02:29John's mother and his cousin, Victor, are still in competition.
00:02:32John started EM five years ago, and he's really made a name for himself in AI.
00:02:36His mother's backing him in his rivalry with his cousin.
00:02:39The AI contest Leo's participating in today is sponsored by the EM company.
00:02:44You and John might run into each other.
00:02:46You should get ready.
00:02:47What?
00:02:53I have to go help her.
00:03:02It's amazing!
00:03:03Today's champion is young Leo, who's just ten years old.
00:03:07And he has managed to code an AI problem that hasn't been solved for over three years.
00:03:17Congrats, kiddo.
00:03:35Dad!
00:03:36I finally found you!
00:03:38What gutter did this little rat crawl out of?
00:03:41I'm calling everyone down.
00:03:43I'm sorry.
00:03:44I just acted out of impulse.
00:03:46I'm afraid the media is going to catch wind and ruin your reputation.
00:03:50Are you all right?
00:03:54Who gave you the green light to touch my son?
00:04:00John.
00:04:02Kiss me, John.
00:04:08John.
00:04:09John.
00:04:10John.
00:04:11John.
00:04:12John.
00:04:16John.
00:04:18John.
00:04:25John.
00:04:26Kiss me.
00:04:27You betrayed me.
00:04:31You.
00:04:33Caroline.
00:04:42Caroline.
00:04:43Caroline!
00:04:45When did you return?
00:04:46Why didn't you tell us?
00:04:48We could have hosted you.
00:04:50You don't need to be fake.
00:04:52You can put on a whole show.
00:04:54John and I are getting married, so I guess not that you're back.
00:04:58You can come to the wedding.
00:05:00No, thank you.
00:05:01We don't have time for petty affairs.
00:05:03Come on, now.
00:05:04Wait!
00:05:06Why did you come back?
00:05:09You're daydreaming!
00:05:12John!
00:05:17John.
00:05:20You lied!
00:05:23How much do you know about my parents' death?
00:05:31Mom.
00:05:32Dad.
00:05:33Why did you jump?
00:05:35I'm going to make those responsible at STM Group pay for what they did.
00:05:45Let go of me.
00:05:47You have no right to ask me that!
00:05:51Stay away from me.
00:05:52Why did you just up and leave without saying anything?
00:05:55Did you find another man with more money?
00:05:58Don't you dare talk to me that way!
00:06:00You don't get to act all high and mighty now that you're rich.
00:06:03You know why I left.
00:06:04No, I don't.
00:06:05We haven't spoken in ten years.
00:06:07Hey!
00:06:10Are you all right?
00:06:11Yes, thank you.

00:24:48to be there including K all right we'll be there
00:25:00the vulnerabilities in the assessment report are so significant I wonder how
00:25:06she'll get out of this one mm-hmm yeah she is missing the opportunity for
00:25:11cooperation John's definitely gonna blame her
00:25:14Kay's reputation in the industry will be completely tarnished no one will dare
00:25:18cooperate with her mr. Easton I have been working with your company for years
00:25:29and I have never seen an assessment report this terrible is this a joke mr.
00:25:34Russell there must be some kind of misunderstanding the project's been
00:25:37going very smoothly this is so unprofessional it is full that report
00:25:44was written by the top lawyer okay so there shouldn't be any issues right
00:25:49Caroline care to explain how do you explain a lack of professionalism I'm
00:25:55sorry I'm afraid this means we can no longer be partners mr. Russell you can't
00:26:01what did you just say okay is right
00:26:09Robert you don't have the qualifications to decide who to cooperate with
00:26:17all right what are you doing here if I hadn't have come you would have missed
00:26:21out on a great project what does president Lynch mean this is the
00:26:27assessment done by Kay what you're holding is fake what the assessment is
00:26:33flawless okay really is as good as they say impossible I could you say that you
00:26:39knew there was a problem with the assessment file and insisted on giving
00:26:43it to Elena or are you surprised that even with the fake data that you gave me
00:26:49I was able to present a praiseworthy assessment report you're lying I didn't
00:26:55care to explain this
00:27:01that's evidence of you sneaking into my office and switching the documents you
00:27:09tricked me Mary you're fired
00:27:15misunderstanding
00:27:25you
00:27:33you knew Mary was playing tricks why did you let her do something so foolish it
00:27:41raises questions when someone comes at you for no reason

00:28:16opportunity right now for us to get revenge

00:30:46the information's at the core of the app which is nearly impossible to access you
00:30:51go first I'll figure it out no I'm going with you can't do this by
00:30:55yourself and candidly I don't trust John I think he still has feelings for you

00:31:12Caroline I want to apologize for my behavior just now I know you're not that
00:31:17kind of person mr. Easton if there's nothing else I'd like to get back to
00:31:21work I've already sent the person who spread those rumors to prison would you
00:31:25send your mother to prison for me
00:31:32I'm sincerely trying to apologize I know my behavior was offensive and my attitude
00:31:42towards you was wrong but I was just angry that you disappeared for ten years
00:31:46I've come to realize I can't help but care for you Caroline can we start over
00:31:52you and your employees have something against me there isn't the slightest bit
00:31:58of trust and you want to start over

00:32:11the core files I'm giving it to you he actually trusts me with this willing to
00:32:20hand over the core of the company to me
00:32:26you don't have to do this it's okay I've waited ten years I'm going a little
00:32:32longer

00:48:13you find the murderer what do you mean I found out that you left John because you
00:48:21suspected me of killing your parents instead of because I told you to don't
00:48:27worry even without the information that you provided I was going to leave
00:48:34there's one other thing I have to ask this is a critical time for STM
00:48:41corporation succession help John secure the investment for the project with

00:48:54compensation for the hurt I've caused you

00:49:18our friendship our partnership
00:49:22STOP! This is defamation turn this off
00:49:27I didn't expect John's fiance to be so unscrupulous
00:49:31don't think we'll be doing business
00:49:33it had been you behind the scenes before
00:49:36This is defamation! Turn this off!
00:49:40I didn't expect John's fiancée to be so unscrupulous. I don't think we'll be doing business.
00:49:45It has been you behind the scenes this whole time!
00:49:51No! No, no, no! This is digital manipulation! This isn't me!
00:49:56You still trying to argue at this point?
00:49:58John! John, you have to believe me! I mean, it was her! It had to be her! She doesn't want you to get the investment!
00:50:05I had nothing to do with this!
00:50:07I took all of these!
00:50:09You're lying!
00:50:11You little brat! I'm gonna kill you!
00:50:17You little brat! I'm gonna kill you!
00:50:24And I just thought you were being temperamental, but I didn't expect you to be so malicious!
00:50:29I was blind to be deceived by you for so long!
00:50:33Sam, take that videotape and her to the police! Let her get a taste of prison!
00:50:40No!
00:50:42No! Stop!
00:50:47Caroline, I'm sorry.
00:50:49No, it's okay.
00:50:52Caroline, I want to apologize for all of my past actions.
00:50:58You were just doing what any mother would do.
00:51:02Don't worry, I'll keep my promise.
00:51:05Let me say I'm sorry. Please, come to our home.
00:51:09Yeah, Caroline, please give my mother and I a chance to apologize.
00:51:13No, I want to go!
00:51:17We'll come by tomorrow night.
00:51:18Okay.
00:51:21This child looks exactly like John did when he was young.
00:51:25I must find out whose child he is.
00:51:33Try this. It's chocolate cake.
00:51:36Oh, no, no, um, Leo's allergic to chocolate.
00:51:40Just like me.
00:51:42Caroline, is Leo really Ben's child?
00:51:46Yes.
00:51:51Thank you, Grandma.
00:51:52Thank you, Grandma.
00:51:53Eat up, eat up, good boy.
00:51:56Well, math geniuses love pizza, and so do I.
00:52:01Right, Leo?
00:52:02That's right.
00:52:03If it weren't for Elena, would our ending be different?
00:52:13Congratulations being released on bail.
00:52:16Thank you, Doctor.
00:52:18I would have told you a long time ago John doesn't love you.
00:52:23And if it wasn't for me posting you bail, you'd be still rotting in jail.
00:52:27I'm going to make those two pay.
00:52:37I'm going to make those two pay.
00:52:39Finally, you're coming through your senses.
00:52:41You've been short on money lately, haven't you?
00:52:46I'll tell you what.
00:52:48You do something for me, and I'll give you five million dollars.
00:52:54Cheers.
00:52:56Cheers.
00:52:58John, you're forcing me into this.
00:53:09Caroline, can you stay? I need you and I can't be without you.
00:53:14Don't worry, I won't help Victor.
00:53:19I need to find the real murderer of my parents.
00:53:21I don't have time for your matters.
00:53:24I can help you.
00:53:27I can handle it myself.
00:53:31Caroline.
00:53:33Boss, our R&D data from our AI project has been leaked.
00:53:44How could it have leaked?
00:53:45Do you know what company has access to the data?
00:53:47It's a company run by Victor.
00:53:50But most importantly...
00:53:53Go ahead, say it.
00:53:54Elena.
00:53:55She's been released on bail, and it seems she's the one who helped out Victor.
00:53:59Of course Elena is involved in this.
00:54:02Is that a problem?
00:54:03When I was kidnapped, Elena told me that someone else had murdered my parents.
00:54:09And that Victor saved me.
00:54:12It's not a coincidence that they're together now.
00:54:14And if I can remember correctly, Victor was the person behind the scenes on the construction project that STM collaborated on with W Company.
00:54:22There must be some connection.
00:54:24Victor was behind the scenes this whole time.
00:54:26I always thought someone else was in charge of that project.
00:54:31Now it all makes sense.
00:54:33Victor is probably the real murderer of my parents.
00:54:39Why would he do that?
00:54:42If it only had to do with the internal strife of the successors, what does that have to do with my parents?
00:54:52John.
00:54:53Do you like the first big gift I've given you?
00:54:57Get to it.
00:55:03If you're willing to marry me, I'll stop.
00:55:06And I'll tell you all of Victor's company's business secrets.
00:55:10How about that?
00:55:12Elena, your actions are so childish.
00:55:14Trying to threaten me with this?
00:55:17John, you'll regret it.
00:55:22Was that Elena? What did she want?
00:55:24Nothing. She was just trying to manipulate me.
00:55:28I have to stay and find out if Victor is the real murderer of my parents.
00:55:32I'm going to put him in jail and make sure he receives the punishment he deserves.
00:55:37Now, the most important thing is to get through this crisis.
00:55:40Our R&D project took three years.
00:55:42If we want to find new talent to redevelop, I'm afraid it's too late.
00:55:48I need to think about what to do next.
00:55:51My company is facing being taken over as it is.
00:55:57You guys forgot about me.
00:56:00Leo? Rebecca, what are you doing here?
00:56:08You guys forgot about me.
00:56:10Leo? Rebecca, what are you doing here?
00:56:13Didn't Dad hold an AI competition to find some core R&D personnel for the artificial intelligence project?
00:56:20Leo insisted. He is concerned that EM is in trouble and he wants to help.
00:56:25He wants to help? Leo, do you really think you can handle that?
00:56:31I believe in Leo.
00:56:32I believe in myself too.
00:56:34I don't know how you little kid can help, but hey, he doesn't hurt Trump. Come on.
00:56:42Leo is already handling things at the R&D center. We can't just sit idly by.
00:56:46What do you mean?
00:56:48I am a shareholder at STM.
00:56:52Here is a key to the data center.
00:56:56Take it and let the truth come to light.
00:57:12We need a resolution from all shareholders sent to the database. Do you have it?
00:57:16You're just an administrator. I am a shareholder.
00:57:20If anything were to happen, I don't think you can take the risk.
00:57:23So step aside.
00:57:39Found it.
00:57:46It turns out there was a problem with the project that collaborated with STM back then.
00:57:51My parents wanted to report the person in charge of embezzling the funds for the project, which led to their silence.
00:57:59Victor destroyed this footage from the scene and lured my mom to the site to make her look like the murderer.
00:58:05What a vicious method.
00:58:07Let go of me.
00:58:14Let go of me.
00:58:16Victor, what are you doing?
00:58:17Oh, I suspect there are suspicious individuals invading the records room, attempting to leak out STM's trade secrets.
00:58:26What? As one of the heirs, is there anything wrong with me reviewing the documents?
00:58:31Oh, but of course not. You can investigate as much as you want.
00:58:34I was talking about her.
00:58:39Without proof, it's defamation.
00:58:41Why in such a hurry? It's just a routine interrogation, right?
00:58:45You're not guilty, are you? Afraid to cooperate with the law?
00:58:49I'm not afraid of anything. I hope you don't regret your actions.
00:58:54Officers, take her out of here.
00:58:59Call Ben. He'll know what to do.
00:59:04Evan, let's go.
00:59:08You know, I would consider that proposal I made on the phone.
00:59:11If you do, I may consider letting Caroline go.
00:59:15Get out of here.
00:59:24Get out of here.
00:59:28Victor is paying the police. We can't let him get away with this.
00:59:32We've got to find a way to get Caroline out of there.
00:59:34Caroline's been arrested. She needs your help. Let's meet up at E.M.
00:59:40Victor's definitely trying to pin everything on Caroline.
00:59:42What we need to do is gather all the evidence we can to prove Caroline's innocence and defend her in court.
00:59:47And the problem is, Victor doesn't leave a trace.
00:59:50Every crime leaves a trace. And Victor won't be an exception.
00:59:55Do you know the relationship between Robert and Caroline?
00:59:57We've been friends for a long time.
00:59:59Victor won't be an exception.
01:00:01Do you know the relationship between Robert and Caroline?
01:00:03We've been friends for years, but what's that got to do with proving Caroline's innocence?
01:00:06Well, when Elena framed Caroline for the problematic evaluation report,
01:00:10they were dealing with an executive named Peter.
01:00:13What do you imply?
01:00:14Well, at the time, he and Elena had a good relationship.
01:00:18Perhaps he could be the breakthrough.
01:00:21I'll call Robert and set up a meeting with you two.
01:00:30If it weren't for Caroline being in prison, I wouldn't consider meeting with you.
01:00:34Go ahead.
01:00:36What do you want to know?
01:00:37There's an executive in your company named Peter.
01:00:40Where is he?
01:00:41After what he and Elena did,
01:00:44which severely affected the company's interests,
01:00:47I fired him.
01:00:48And he ended up in prison for robbery.
01:00:51Robbery?
01:00:52His mother is severely ill.
01:00:54And after leaving S Group, he didn't have enough money to pay for it.
01:00:57He took the wrong path.
01:01:03Once this is over, I'm planning on proposing to Caroline.
01:01:06I hope you won't stand in the way of that.
01:01:19What do you want with me?
01:01:20Do you know Victor?
01:01:21No.
01:01:22No, I don't know him.
01:01:23You're lying.
01:01:24You know, I know about your mother.
01:01:27Don't worry.
01:01:28I've arranged for the best cardiologist for her.
01:01:31She'll be fine.
01:01:33Alright.
01:01:34So what do you want from me?
01:01:35The trial is tomorrow.
01:01:37I want you to tell the judge everything you know.
01:01:39I'll vouch for you, get you bail,
01:01:42and then arrange a high-paying job for you.
01:01:49Alright, fine.
01:01:51Alright, fine.
01:01:53I'll do it.
01:02:04Caroline.
01:02:09Defendant, the plaintiff hereby declares that you have sold many company secrets.
01:02:15Do you plead guilty?
01:02:16I do not plead guilty.
01:02:18I do not plead guilty, Your Honor.
01:02:20I did not do it.
01:02:21Do you have evidence to prove this?
01:02:23I was involved with the companies that are mentioned in the case,
01:02:28but I have not entered internally any of the client offices.
01:02:35How could I have leaked the secrets?
01:02:37When cooperating with EM, you were placed in the internal offices.
01:02:42Not long after, core research from EM's artificial intelligence project was leaked.
01:02:48As a former director of EM and as Victor's current employee,
01:02:53I have reason to suspect that you are the one who leaked the secrets.
01:02:59But I don't have the key to EM's database.
01:03:02You do.
01:03:03Yeah, I got it.
01:03:04Plus, I have video evidence showing you entering the database, so...
01:03:10Wait, given this evidence is conclusive, I am now...
01:03:13Wait!
01:03:15We have another witness who can prove that Caroline did not release trade secrets.
01:03:24Where is this witness?
01:03:33My name is Peter Russell, and I can prove that Caroline has committed no crimes.
01:03:39What evidence do you have?
01:03:46Victor and Elena have threatened me and my mother to sabotage Caroline in the evaluation meetings.
01:03:53And I overheard Elena plotting to frame Caroline.
01:03:59And I have a home recording.
01:04:02What is this?
01:04:03This is AI! This is fake!
01:04:06Plus, he's a criminal!
01:04:07He can't be trusted!
01:04:08All videos presented in this court are original and have been tested for authenticity.
01:04:13I hereby declare the defendant is not guilty. Release her!
01:04:19Wonderful work!
01:04:20Caroline!
01:04:22Go to hell!
01:04:24Ben!
01:04:30Ben?
01:04:31Ben, stay with me! Ben!
01:04:38Ben!
01:04:43Ben!
01:04:44Ben!
01:04:45No! Ben!
01:04:47No!
01:04:50No!
01:05:01Ben, you are a hero.
01:05:08Uncle Ben, you are a good man. I'll see you in heaven.
01:05:18Ben, rest assured, your death will not be in vain.
01:05:24I will punish them with the law.
01:05:28Leo has already broken through the core problem of AI.
01:05:31It's time to let Victor taste the pain of losing everything.
01:05:38A few hours later.
01:05:44The licensing should be done in about a week.
01:05:47One second.
01:05:49What's the matter? Why do you feel so flustered?
01:05:51John has enlisted the help of a master of mathematical algorithms
01:05:55who has already brought me through to the key research and development of artificial intelligence.
01:05:58I mean, our stock price has plummeted to the critical point
01:06:00and he's already here with the authorities to investigate the company.
01:06:03Thank God, I thought it was something serious.
01:06:05I already transferred all the funds. They won't be able to find anything.
01:06:08Well, they also found evidence of you murdering an employee to embezzle that project fund years ago.
01:06:13I'll call you right back.
01:06:15Boss, you should flee now.
01:06:18Did you do what I told you?
01:06:19The doctor's been paid. I mean, the files are ready.
01:06:36He must have gotten wind of it and fled early.
01:06:41He'll be caught soon.
01:06:44Hey doc, do we have it?
01:06:49This is all I can do for you.
01:06:51If they find out, I could lose my job.
01:07:06Leo?
01:07:08Leo?
01:07:11He's not here.
01:07:19If you want Leo to live, come to the warehouse on the outskirts.
01:07:25What happened?
01:07:27Victor has taken Leo.
01:07:29What?
01:07:31Victor has taken Leo.
01:07:33What?
01:07:34Don't worry, I'll get him back.
01:07:37I'm coming with you.
01:07:42It's here.
01:07:44Let's do this.
01:07:48Leo!
01:07:49Hey!
01:07:52Victor, please.
01:07:55I'll do anything you want.
01:07:57Just don't hurt Leo.
01:08:00It's mesmerizing seeing you beg me.
01:08:02Victor, take it out on me.
01:08:05Don't hurt Leo.
01:08:07John, you were always better than him.
01:08:10It makes sense, we were little kids.
01:08:12Even Elena likes you.
01:08:14Why?
01:08:17You have everything.
01:08:19And then in the end, I got nothing?
01:08:21Victor!
01:08:23Calm down.
01:08:25Let's just talk this through.
01:08:27No, no, no, there's no going back.
01:08:30See, you made my life miserable.
01:08:33Now, it's my turn to make yours miserable.
01:08:36You can lose everything!
01:08:43It's my turn to make yours miserable.
01:08:45You can lose everything!
01:08:47Victor, Victor, please!
01:08:49Don't do anything impulsive.
01:08:51Elena is using you.
01:08:53She's exploiting your love.
01:08:55Victor, Victor!
01:08:57Do you want the CEO position to STM?
01:09:00If you put down the gun, I will step down.
01:09:03Stop fucking lying to me!
01:09:06You think I'm gonna believe your lies?
01:09:10I'm gonna give you two choices.
01:09:12Shut up!
01:09:16Either you kill Caroline,
01:09:19or I'm gonna kill your son.
01:09:21You only can't save one.
01:09:24What are you saying?
01:09:26My kid?
01:09:28You didn't know Leo was your son?
01:09:30How fucking pathetic is that?
01:09:32Caroline, is this true?
01:09:34Is he really my son?
01:09:36You've been deceived too, haven't you?
01:09:38That's right, and it doesn't feel good, does it?
01:09:40To be the one who's the fool, now does it?
01:09:42Yes, yes, Leo is your son.
01:09:45Please, you have to choose Leo.
01:09:47Save him, he's too young.
01:09:49Please, no!
01:09:51Since you won't make a choice,
01:09:53I'm gonna kill you.
01:10:07Leo!
01:10:09Leo, are you alright?
01:10:11Okay.
01:10:15Come here, come here.
01:10:18John?
01:10:20John, are you okay?
01:10:28He's lost too much blood.
01:10:30He's gone.
01:10:36You need to go to a hospital.
01:10:38Now!
01:10:42What did we find?
01:10:44He's lucky.
01:10:46I thought it was gonna get me through this.
01:10:48This is all my fault.
01:10:50If I hadn't asked for revenge,
01:10:52none of this would have happened.
01:10:54You can't blame yourself.
01:10:56You blame Victor.
01:11:01Who's the family of the patient?
01:11:03I am.
01:11:04The patient's in critical condition
01:11:05and needs a family member's signature immediately.
01:11:07I'll sign.
01:11:11We'll do our best.
01:11:16We were able to remove the bullet from the patient.
01:11:18He didn't need the additional work.
01:11:22Thank you, doctor.
01:11:30John.
01:11:36I hope to God that you wake up soon.
01:11:40Leo can't die.
01:11:42I hope to God that you wake up soon.
01:11:45Leo can't be with that father.
01:11:58You need to eat something.
01:11:59You haven't eaten anything all day.
01:12:01I can't eat.
01:12:03John will hate to hear about this.
01:12:06I'll wait for him to wake up.
01:12:09He's awake?
01:12:13John?
01:12:15John, you're awake!
01:12:18How's Leo?
01:12:20Leo's okay.
01:12:22He's a little bit scared,
01:12:24but it's nothing serious.
01:12:26I want to get you and Leo a home.
01:12:28Would you like that?
01:12:34I want to get you and Leo a home.
01:12:36I want to get you and Leo a home.
01:12:38Would you like that?
01:12:40John!
01:12:42John!
01:12:43I have fantastic news!
01:12:45Leo is your son!
01:12:47Here's the paternity papers!
01:12:49I already know that.
01:12:51You knew he was your son?
01:12:54How could you not tell me something so important?
01:12:58I just found out myself, Mom.
01:13:01Leo,
01:13:03let's give them some space, okay?
01:13:11You're okay, right?
01:13:16Well, since you now have a son,
01:13:19why not propose to his mother?
01:13:22I was going to propose until you barged in.
01:13:26Oh.
01:13:29Well, carry on.
01:13:36Rebecca, it's getting late.
01:13:38I'll take care of John for the night.
01:13:48I'm sorry.
01:13:50I'm sorry.
01:13:52I'm sorry.
01:13:54I'm sorry.
01:13:57Caroline,
01:13:59you still haven't answered my question from earlier.
01:14:03I can't.
01:14:05Why?
01:14:07You can see Leo all you want.
01:14:09That's your right.
01:14:11But I can't marry you.
01:14:13Did I do something wrong?
01:14:15If I did, just tell me and I can change.
01:14:18There are some things I can forgive.
01:14:21But there are others that I can never forget.
01:14:25John, we've...
01:14:27Mom, why would you accept Dad's proposal?
01:14:30Are you still mad at him?
01:14:32Leo, this is an adult conversation.
01:14:36Mommy can handle this.
01:14:38Grandma will take you back home.
01:14:41Rebecca, do you mind taking Leo back?
01:14:46I need to have serious talk with John.
01:14:56Ten years ago,
01:15:00I left for two reasons.
01:15:03The first reason was that I mistook your mother
01:15:07as the murderer of my parents.
01:15:10And the other reason...
01:15:13Why wouldn't you want to marry me?
01:15:16Your mother told me that Elena was your fiancé.
01:15:22I saw you and Elena in the bedroom together.
01:15:28I knew you had feelings for her.
01:15:31I've never slept with Elena.
01:15:33I've only ever been with you.
01:15:35But I saw the man in the bedroom.
01:15:37It was clearly you.
01:15:42I was planning your proposal at that time.
01:15:45See?
01:15:48Look.
01:15:50You must have seen Victor.
01:15:53He likes to impersonate me.
01:15:57So they've been plotting this since the beginning.
01:16:00I always thought it was you.
01:16:03So...
01:16:06Carolina...
01:16:09Will you marry me now?
01:16:14Mom, just a yes.
01:16:17Yes.
01:16:47Yes!
01:17:03Mom and Dad...
01:17:06Merry Christmas.
01:17:08Mom and Dad!
01:17:10Mom and Dad!
01:17:12Mom and Dad!
01:17:14Mom and Dad!
01:17:16Mom and Dad!
