The Third Year I Loved the Enemy - Episode 20

Introduction: Elena is the sheltered youngest daughter of the Moretti family. She’s secretly dated Dante, heir of their rival Valenti family and her brother Luca’s sworn enemy, for three years. She overhears Dante planning an arranged marriage and a public humiliation of Luca at her birthday party. Dante blames family pressure, and Elena gives him one last chance, remembering how he saved her years ago. But Elena soon finds out the rescue was staged. Their whole romance was a revenge trap. Crushed, she leaves quietly on her birthday. Dante has truly fallen for her by then. He calls off the marriage and abandons his revenge, begging for forgiveness — only to be rejected. Elena steps out of her sheltered life and joins the family’s legitimate business. Together with Julian, the Moretti family lawyer, she uncovers that the Rossi family stoked their decades-long feud for profit. The Morettis and Valentis unite to end the conflict. Elena doesn’t take Dante back. She builds her own power and chooses Julian, who treats her as an equal. Dante finally learns love is not possession. Sometimes, you have to accept the one you love chooses a life without you.
