The story
The short version. Revenge, 42 episodes on YourChannel. Three years ago a sudden car accident made Sophia disappear from everyone's life without a trace. The police declared her dead, and her husband Alexander prepared to marry another woman.
The wedding opens on the church aisle. The priest asks Alexander whether he takes Sophia to be his wife, and the woman everyone believed dead walks in through the doors. The guests cannot place her at first, then the shock lands: she died three years ago. Sophia does not soften the reunion. She tells him he killed her three years ago, that he was the one behind it, that he is a hypocrite, and that she never expected him to fall in love with another woman so quickly without her.
When the past finally opens, Alexander's account contradicts everything she assumed. That night, he says, he was not trying to kill her; he was trying to reach her before someone else did, and he was protecting her. He needed Richard to believe she was dead, the only way he knew to keep her safe. His people pulled her out of the water, secretly sent her to the French clinic, gave her the villa, arranged the Ferrari, and put two billion dollars on a bank card for her. The accident she blamed on him may have been a cover for a rescue she never saw.
Her version of the river night is fixed in her memory: she crashed into the river, it had to be Alexander, he tried to kill her, and she will have her revenge. After her recovery she wakes in a private clinic in France; a gentleman has bought a villa for her here and asked the doctor to hand over the keys, but the doctor signed a confidentiality agreement and cannot say who he is. On the same night she walks the streets of Paris, and a gentleman has already covered her coffee at one of the finest cafes in France — she never gets a good look at him.
