00:00The man discovered something terrifying while drinking tea. He realized his wife might have
00:04poisoned the water. He clutched his stomach in pain and struggled toward the door. To stop her
00:17scheme, he went to the balcony, ready to fall. The wife followed closely, screaming wildly,
00:22pretending to regret it, but his eyes held only coldness. He smiled knowingly and then fell
00:27without hesitation. The wife watched her husband collapse, yet she showed a strange smile. She
00:32opened the suitcase and took out his laptop, and her goal was finally achieved. She confidently
00:37entered the password, only to find the account required two-step verification. Besides the
00:41password, it needed facial recognition, and now his face could not be used. Panic flashed through
00:46her, but she refused to give up. She drove to her friend Arthur's studio, claiming her husband had
00:51a tragic accident and showing deep sorrow. Arthur did not doubt her and expressed sympathy. She pressed
00:56on, telling Arthur she missed her husband and wanted him to make a model to remember her love.
01:15Arthur could not refuse her sincerity. She recalled moments with her husband, then heard a strange
01:20sound. She looked back, seeing nothing, unaware that Arthur's apprentice had heard everything.
01:25After she drove off, the apprentice told Arthur that anyone using innocence to gain sympathy was
01:30suspicious. Lena dared to say it because she could tell lies through eyelid movements, but Arthur seemed
01:34unconvinced. He thought Laura lost her husband, and even if she deceived herself, it did not matter.
01:40He only wanted to help her fulfill her wish. They had a long, deep friendship, and he could not
01:44ignore his friend's pain. The apprentice wondered why the three had eventually gone separate ways.
01:49Arthur fell silent, then shared a story. In their youth, they started a film company. One scene
01:53required actors in water. For safety, a rescue device was attached to their wrists. When the
01:58warning light flashed, they would act immediately, but Arthur, a perfectionist, kept retaking the shots.
02:04This caused an actor to suffocate in the water. He had carried guilt ever since, and chose to leave,
02:09handing the company to two friends. The apprentice was moved and comforted his mentor.
02:12So that's why you walked away from all this. Why did she, uh, set off the red light bulb?
02:17I don't know.
02:18Soon after, Arthur finished the friend's model. Laura eagerly opened the cabinet and found a near-perfect
02:23replica. She hurriedly tried the laptop. After the first verification, she logged in successfully and
02:29quickly retrieved the needed files. Afterward, she called the company to demand the recently handled
02:33footage be sent to her. The company said the files had already been taken by a friend. Before she could react,
02:38she saw Arthur on the security footage. Her gaze froze on the model. She reluctantly closed the
02:47laptop and went to open the door. Arthur had finally faced his dark past after talking with Lena.
02:52He contacted the archive staff, requesting the accident footage. Despite company rules,
02:57decades of friendship led the staff to bend the rules. Arthur skillfully opened the tape,
03:01reliving the hidden memories as if he were back at the accident. He did not expect a terrifying truth.
03:06The actor's warning light had been turned off. Arthur was stunned and speechless. He replayed
03:10the footage repeatedly, feeling a chill as the blurry quality forced him to use tools. Finally,
03:15he recognized the mastermind. Decades of guilt had haunted him, but he never anticipated that
03:19Laura had orchestrated it all. When the truth emerged, he went to Laura's place to understand
03:23her motives. Facing Arthur's questioning, Laura carried an air of apology. She said she had
03:28misunderstood the actress's actions and had given a warning fully investing in the project.
03:32Every second precious. Her intent was to manage the bigger picture, but the path led to tragedy.
03:37She insisted it was a series of accidents. Arthur remained unmoved. He calmly produced the tape and
03:42asked if her husband knew the truth. Laura's response was vague, emphasizing only her focus
03:47on the bigger picture. Then she changed the subject to express her difficulties.
03:50I move forward, always forward, and I am not going to lose what I built.
03:59And you're right that the dead can't forgive me, but they also can't hurt me.
04:06Laura, let me ask you this. Did you have anything to do with Max's death?
04:13Arthur said nothing and finally destroyed the evidence. Laura's tense nerves relaxed. She felt
04:27grateful for Arthur's trust and prayed for her husband's spirit, hoping she would no longer
04:31resent herself. Arthur seemed to understand everything and quietly prepared to leave.
04:36Just as Laura thought it was over, she noticed something odd about the tape. She hurriedly took
04:40it out with a stick, noticing deliberate markings and that the blackout section was missing. Arthur
04:45had taken it. On the way home, Arthur's condition worsened. The car swayed, his consciousness fading.
04:50Through sheer will, he finally reached home. When Lena arrived in a hurry, she found Arthur gone.
04:55The news of Arthur's death reached Laura. She immediately thought of the studio he left behind.
04:59She had always believed his achievements relied on company resources, so taking over seemed natural.
05:04She trusted the lawyer shared this view. Laura planned to claim everything Arthur left behind.
05:09Unexpectedly she suddenly saw Lena who had arrived without her noticing.
