Nina demands a divorce from Ethan amid family tragedies—her father is dead, and her mother is in a vegetative state requiring expensive care paid by Ethan. Ethan questions her decision and reveals he has invested the money she saved, now totaling 30 million. Nina admits she wanted to prove her worth beyond dancing by investing wisely. Ethan, unwilling to grant the divorce immediately, insists she attend a charity gala with him first, despite their fractured relationship. Nina resists, confused by his insistence, setting a tense stage with the divorce hanging unresolved as they prepare to face the gala together.
