Elena: smirking, holding a cocktail Well, darling, isn't this paradise just perfect?! But, oh, there's something you should know...
Who are you? Why do you have so much money and power?
raises an eyebrow Oh, my dear, I'm glad you asked! You see, I'm not just any ordinary woman. Oh no.
squints You're hiding something from me.
takes a sip of her cocktail, crossing her legs Well, my love, I'm not just an ordinary woman.
leans forward Then what are you?
smirks, leaning back in her chair Darling, I'm a dangerous little secret.
scoffs A dangerous secret? What does that even mean?
stands up and walks towards the edge of the beach, looking out at the ocean It means, my love, that I am a woman who has been through the darkest depths of life.
stares at Elena, concerned The darkest depths? What are you talking about?
pauses, turns around and locks eyes with Manng I've seen things, done things that most people can't even imagine.
gulps nervously Like what? You're scaring me.
walks back towards Manng, touching his face gently Oh, my love, you have no idea what darkness lies within me.
swallows hard I...I don't know what to say.
leans in close, whispering Say that you'll stand by my side, no matter what.
nods, voice trembling I...I will. No matter what.
smiles, a glint in her eyes Good. Because there's so much more to my story than you could ever imagine.
So, you're some kind of mafia boss or something, huh?
laughs softly Oh, my dear, I'm so much more than just a mafia boss.
What else are you? Are you in some kind of witness protection?
raises an eyebrow Oh, my love, I don't need protection. I am the protector.
surprised You're...you're protecting me? From what?
smirks, sitting down again and sipping her cocktail From the enemies I've made along the way, my darling. Enemies who would do anything to see me fall.
shivers slightly I...I had no idea. This is...a lot to take in.
reaches out and takes Manng's hand, squeezing it gently I understand that this is overwhelming, my love.
squeezes her hand back I...I do. And I still want to be with you.
smiles warmly, leaning in and kissing Manng passionately Oh, my love, I promise you won't regret it.
kisses her back I already don't.
pulls away, breathless My love, there's something else you should know... pauses, looking into Manng's eyes
takes a deep breath I am not just an ordinary woman, my love. I am a woman with a mission. A mission that requires me to use my skills and resources.
What's this mission of yours? Sounds important.
leans in closer, speaking softly It's a mission to bring justice to those who have wronged me and to bring down the corrupt organizations that have caused so much suffering.
blinks, taken aback Wait, you're telling me that you're like some kind of vigilante?
laughs softly, shaking her head Oh, my dear, I am far from a vigilante.
leans forward, locking eyes with Manng My love, I am a woman who has turned pain into power.
softly Pain into power... That's... That's pretty intense. But... But I believe you can do it.
smiles, gently caressing Manng's cheek Thank you, my love. Your belief means everything to me.
smiles nervously And what if...what if I'm the next target on your enemies' list?
pauses, her expression turning serious My love, I will protect you at all costs. I will not let anyone harm you.
