05:07I clutched my phone, my blood running cold
05:09Your husband? Bastard
05:11Hold on tight, I'll take a shortcut
05:13I won't let this kid die
05:15Snow fell even harder
05:17Lily's breathing was almost inaudible
05:19I pulled a metal device the size of a button
05:21out of my inner pocket
05:23Father had said that as long as I pressed it
05:25His men would be here within 3 hours
05:27We finally reached the hospital
05:28I rushed into the emergency room with Lily in my arms
05:32Acute pneumonia
05:33Heart rate dropping, prepare for recitation
05:37I was stopped outside the resuscitation room
05:40I watched the doctors intubate Lily
05:42and hook her up to a monitor
05:43Her tiny body lay on the hospital bed
05:45as if it might vanish at any moment
05:47I squatted in the corner
05:48My phone rang again
05:51David
05:52Vivian, where are you two? My mom's waiting for dinner
05:55I opened my mouth, but no sound came out
05:57Speak
05:59Hospital, Lily is in ICU
06:01What? Why are you at the hospital? Where's Mia?
06:03She never came
06:04That's impossible, she just texted me, said she picked you up
06:06I opened the family group chat
06:0720 minutes ago, she sent a message
06:09Brother picked up Vivian
06:11She's lying
06:12David, come to the hospital, now
06:14Are you just doing this because Chloe's here and you're jealous?
06:16Our daughter can barely breathe and you think this is jealousy?
06:19What else?
06:20Lily gets colds all the time, you're overreacting
06:21And honestly, I'm tired of you making every day about your feelings
06:24David, if Lily dies today, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life
06:28That's your choice, but I'm not leaving here tonight
06:31He hung up
06:32I listened to the dial tone and slid slowly to the floor
06:36She suffered from oxygen deprivation for too long
06:37There's brain damage
06:38It may affect her intelligence in the future or even leave her paralyzed for life
06:42How is that possible?
06:43I grabbed the wall to keep from falling
06:44The world went black before my eyes
06:46We did everything we could
06:47First go through the admission procedures
06:49The follow-up treatment won't be cheap, okay?
06:51I stumbled to the payment counter in a daze
06:54Insufficient funds
06:55David only gave me $500 a month for living expenses
06:58Saying it was enough to raise a child
07:00I called him
07:01The background was lively, like he was eating dinner
07:04What now?
07:05Lily needs surgery, transfer $1,000 to me
07:07$10,000?
07:08Vivian, do you think I'm an ATM?
07:10Or a printing pren?
07:12David, $10,000 to me
07:13David, Lily is your daughter
07:15Are you going to transfer the money or not?
07:16No, I'm not going to keep funding your drama every time you want my attention
07:19As for Lily, if you're going to use her as a weapon every time we argue
07:22Then maybe you two are better off on your own
07:23I hung up the phone weakly
07:27Can you treat her first?
07:29I'll pay you back slowly
07:30I'm sorry, hospital rules
07:32We need a deposit first
07:33I walked out of the hospital and stood in the snow
07:36My phone vibrated
07:37It was Charles
07:38Vivian, where are you?
07:39My brother said Mia picked you up
07:41Charles, do me a favor
07:44Anything
07:45If I die, take care of Lily for me
07:48What nonsense are you talking about?
07:50I have no money left
07:51There's no hope for Lily
07:53David doesn't want to help
07:55I have nothing left
07:57Send her to an orphan hatch
07:58At least she'll live
07:59Vivian, don't do anything stupid
08:01Where are you?
08:01I'll be there right away
08:02No need
08:03I hung up and turned off my phone
08:05I walked back to the ward
08:07Baby, mom, I'm so sorry
08:09In the next life, don't be my daughter
08:11I bent down and kissed her forehead
08:13Find a hood family
08:14Be a beloved baby
08:16The hospital rooftop was battered by wind and snow
08:19I stood at the edge looking down
08:21People walking by were so small
08:23If I jumped, everything would be over
08:25I closed my eyes and leaned forward
08:28A hand suddenly grabbed my wrist
08:30I fell to the ground and looked up
08:31Several men in black suits stood in front of me
08:33I was lifted onto a helicopter
08:36Lily was carried on board too
08:37And the doctors who'd come with us took over at once
08:40Intracranial pressure is too high
08:41She needs surgery immediately
08:43Call the hospital
08:44Tell them we're coming
08:45Get everything ready
08:46I'm sorry baby
08:47Dad came from bed
08:48Father held my hand
08:49His hands shaking non-stop
08:50I'm sorry
08:51I stared at him as if in a dream
08:52That was a lie
08:54I was afraid he'd marry only for money
08:56I knew our family's wealthy
08:57So I pretended to be poor well
08:58But I never thought
08:59He looked at the unconscious Lily
09:01And tears fell
09:02I never thought they'd be this cruel
09:03To mistreat my granddaughter like this
09:05The helicopter landed on the roof of the hospital
09:07Lily was wheeled straight into the operating room
09:10Father stood outside the operating room
09:12And made a phone call
09:12Carter Group
09:13I want to see its stock drop to the limit
09:15Before the market opens tomorrow
09:16Terminate all collaboration deals
09:18You know what to do with the banks
09:20Vivian
09:20Bad will give you two choices
09:22First
09:23Get a divorce
09:24Take the money
09:24Take Lily abroad
09:25And never come wait for the rest of your life
09:27Second
09:28Stay and watch this man fall apart
09:30Watch David get on his knees
09:32And beg for your forgiveness
09:33I thought for a moment
09:34Second
09:36But I have one more condition
09:38Say it
09:39Prepare a corpse for me
09:39One that looks exactly like me
09:41Frozen to death on the side of the highway with a child
09:43You want to?
09:44I want them to think I'm dead
09:45Then I want to watch with my own eyes how they celebrate
09:48How can they celebrate Christmas happily while Lily and I are dead?
09:51Father was silent for a long time
09:53Then nodded
09:54Alright
09:54The corpse was incredibly lifelike
09:57Someone passing by found them and called the police
09:59The police contacted David using the phone they found on me
10:02When the phone rang
10:03David's family was having their Christmas dinner
10:05A table full of food, laughter and chatter filling the room
10:08Joel sat next to David putting food on his plate
10:11Mason called Grandma sweetly
10:12Grandma
10:13Chloe is such a good girl
10:14Even her daughter is so sensible
10:15Unlike Vivian who had that little crybaby
10:17So fussy, such a nuisance
10:19David's phone rang
10:20He glanced at it and frowned
10:22Police
10:23Hello? Is this Mr. David?
10:25Is your wife Vivian with your daughter on the highway?
10:27Yes
10:28What's wrong?
10:28We found two bodies by the highway
10:30Initial judgment is death by hypothermia
10:32The female victim has an ID card with the name Vivian
10:34There's also a little girl around 3 years old
10:38Please come and identify them
10:39What did you say?
10:41Your wife and daughter may have had an accident
10:42The entire table fell silent
10:44How unlucky to be like this on Christmas
10:46David stood up, his face as white as a sheet
10:50Vivian and Lily froze to death?
10:51A police officer led him into the mortuary
10:55The cold storage drawer was pulled open
10:57Revealing the two bodies, one big, one small
10:59The older one wore my down jacket
11:01Is this them?
11:08Impossible
11:11Mia clearly went to pick them up
11:12We reviewed the surveillance footage
11:13Her sister's car never even got on the highway
11:15She drove around the city for a while
11:16Then went home
11:16Besides, the last call on the deceased's phone was to you
11:19It was at 7 last night
11:19She said the child was sick and begged you for help
11:21And you said
11:22You said she was overreacting
11:23That you weren't going to fund her drama
11:24I thought
11:26I thought she was exaggerating
11:28I
11:29I didn't know it was real
11:32Would you have gone if you'd known?
11:33The mortuary door opened
11:34David's mother rushed in
11:36Saw the bodies
11:37Oh my granddaughter
11:39My sweet baby
11:40Why did you have to leave like this?
11:41Grandma didn't get to love you enough
11:43She cried for two seconds
11:44Then suddenly stopped and grabbed David
11:47Now that Vivian is dead
11:48You can marry Chloe
11:50She's young
11:51She's kind
11:52And she loves you
11:54David turned to look at her
11:55His eyes blank and strange
11:57Mom, that's my daughter
11:58Your granddaughter
11:59I know, I know
12:00It's heartbreaking
12:01But dwelling on it won't bring them back
12:03Life moves forward
12:05Call the lawyer
12:06We'll handle the paperwork quietly
12:07Don't drag this out
12:08Hurry up
12:09Chloe is waiting at home
12:10Mrs. These are two human lives
12:12So what about human lives?
12:14This is our family's business
12:15It's none of your business
12:16David's mother pulled him toward the door
12:18Chloe is waiting for us to go back to dinner
12:20David let her drag him away
12:21Then he looked back at the cold storage drawer
12:24Wait
12:24He wrenched his arm free and walked back
12:26Wait
12:28Vivian, I'm sorry
12:31I was wrong
12:32I really
12:34Didn't know it would be like this
12:35Why are you apologizing to her?
12:37She's just unlucky to hear
12:38Serves her right
12:40Shut up
12:44I want to take the bodies back
12:47Hold a funeral
12:48A grand one
12:49A black wreath hung on the front door
12:51Of the Carter family house
12:53Chole and Mason moved into the master bedroom
12:58David's mother kept trying to take down the black wreath
13:01David didn't listen
13:02He sat in the morning hall
13:04Keeping vigil beside the coffins
13:06Brother, I didn't mean to
13:07I just forgot about it because I was having fun with friends
13:09I never thought they'd actually die
13:12Forgot about it?
13:13Two human lives
13:14And you just say you forgot about it
13:15What do you want me to do then?
13:17It's not my fault she had no one to rely on
13:19David raised his hand and slapped her heart across the face
13:23Get out
13:24If I see you again, I'll disown you
13:30Mia ran away crying
13:32Chole came over with Mason
13:34Her voice soft and comforting
13:35Vivian would not want to see you like this wherever she is
13:38David looked up at her
13:39I don't know what you were doing when they were dying
13:42I was eating dinner at your house
13:44They were dying in the snow
13:46Waiting for someone who would never come
13:48That's your sister's fault
13:49What does it have to do with me?
13:51It was your mom who insisted that I come back with you for Christmas
13:53Otherwise I wouldn't have to suffer like this
13:55Besides, it was you who threw them out of the car
13:57Right, you endured so much trouble
13:58But they froze to death
13:59To death in the snow
14:00Two lives lost
14:01And Lily was only three years old
14:03Chole said nothing
14:04David stood up and walked to the coffins
14:06Running his hand gently over them
14:09I've been thinking these past few days
14:11What if I'd answered the phone?
14:13What if I'd gone to pick them up?
14:15What if I hadn't said those things?
14:16Before she walked out the door
14:17She threw a sentence over her shoulder
14:19David, I'm still here
14:20Talk to me when you feel better
14:22The door to the morning hall closed
14:24David slid down to the floor
14:26Leaning against the coffin
14:27In the surveillance room
14:28I watched his shoulders shake
14:30How ridiculous
14:31He didn't cherish Lily when she was alive
14:33Only cried for her when she was dead
14:35I texted father
14:36Can we start?
14:37Father replied
14:38Anytime
14:39David's business began to collapse
14:41First, their biggest client
14:43Suddenly terminated the contract
14:44And signed a 10-year long-term deal
14:46With a competitor the next day
14:48Then the banks called in their loans
14:50And the cash flow dried up
14:52Suppliers swarmed the company
14:53To demand payment
14:54His mother called to yell at him
14:56You're never home
14:57What if Chloe gets angry?
14:59The company is falling apart
15:01Do you understand that?
15:03So what if it falls apart?
15:05We still have money
15:06Money?
15:07Mom, we're going bankrupt
15:08The house, the cars, the savings
15:11All of it will be sold to pay the debts
15:14You might not even have enough to eat in the future
15:16He sat in his office staring out the window
15:18He'd worked hard in the city for 10 years
15:20Now, it was all gone in one night
15:22His phone rang an unknown number
15:26And a man's voice came through
15:28Mr. David, have you received the gift?
15:30You just need to know this is only the beginning
15:32The debt you owe must be repaid
15:33With the entire family's phone
15:35The phone hung up
15:36David called back
15:37But the number was already disconnected
15:39He clutched the phone
15:40His hands shaking
15:41Carter Group was officially declared bankrupt
15:43And put into liquidation
15:45David's mother moved out of the villa
15:47And into a rented apartment
15:49Chole left with Mason
15:50Taking the last of the cash with her
15:51Before she went
15:52My daughter Mason still has to go to school
15:53David didn't stop her
15:54He moved into the morning hall
15:56He spread a quilt on the floor and slept there
15:58You ruined the family fortune for a dead woman
16:01How can you face mom?
16:03David looked at her
16:04And who can face Vivian?
16:05Who can face Lily?
16:07Mia was lost for words and left crying
16:09She never came back
16:12David started looking for a job
16:14But no one wanted to hire a bankrupt boss
16:16He had to go work at a construction site
16:18Carrying bricks
16:21At night
16:22He went back to the morning hall
16:23And ate steamed buns with cold water
16:26Then he sat beside the coffins
16:27And talked to himself
16:29Vivian the foreman yelled at me today
16:31Said I'm weak
16:31Not a real man
16:33I remembered you used to tell me
16:34Not to work so hard
16:35To take care of myself
16:37I thought you were just nagging back then
16:39Now I realize you really cared about me
16:42He pulled out a crumpled cigarette
16:43And lit it
16:44If Lily were alive
16:45She'd be in kindergarten now
16:46You said you wanted to send her to learn the piano
16:48I said it was a waste of time
16:50I'm such an idiot
16:54The cigarette burned down to his fingers
16:55But he didn't notice
16:56In the surveillance room
16:58Father asked me
16:59Still watching?
17:00I shook my head
17:01No
17:02Get everything ready
17:04I'll go back to the company next week
17:06You're going to take over?
17:08That's right
17:09David's family has fallen
17:10And I've avenged my grudge
17:13Now it's time to live my own life
17:19All right
17:21But there's one thing you need to know
17:22David is looking for you
17:26It seems he's found out the bodies are fake
17:28David had indeed found out
17:29In the pocket of my down jacket
17:31There was a shopping receipt
17:33It had three days after I died
17:34For a strawberry cake Lily's favorite
17:36He rushed to the cake shop
17:38And asked to see the surveillance footage
17:40On the screen
17:42A woman wearing a mask
17:43Held a little girl's hand
17:44The little girl hopped and skipped
17:46Pointing at the cake display case
17:47The woman bent down
17:49Listened to her
17:50Then smiled and nodded
17:51It was me
17:52David ran out of the cake shop
17:53Like a madman
17:55He went to every place
17:56We'd ever been together
17:57Parks
18:00Malls
18:00Amusement parks
18:02Finally he saw Lily at the gate of a private kindergarten
18:04A man in a suit was holding her hand
18:06About to lead her to a car
18:07Lily
18:07David rushed over
18:09Sir what did you do?
18:10Lily saw him
18:10Froze for a second
18:11Then hid behind the man
18:14She's my daughter
18:15Where's Vivian?
18:16Man frowned
18:16I don't know anyone named Vivian
18:18Please
18:19Step aside
18:20Lily suddenly burst into tears
18:22Bad guy
18:23You're a bad guy
18:24You made mom cry
18:26David froze
18:28Lily
18:31I'm daddy
18:32You're not
18:33Lily shouted
18:34Mighty is dead
18:35Mom said so
18:36He didn't want us anymore
18:37He's dead
18:38Just then
18:38A black car pulled up
18:39And stopped by the road
18:40The window rolled down
18:42I sat in the back seat
18:43David saw me
18:44And his pupils constricted
18:45Vivian
18:45You're really alive
18:46You're really alive
18:47Getting out of the car
18:47And walking over to pick Lily up
18:49Mom
18:50That bad guy tried to grab me
18:52Don't be afraid baby
18:54Mom's here
18:54David stared at me
18:55As if seeing me for the first time
18:57You've been lying to me this whole time
18:59Yes I admitted
19:00The bodies were fake
19:00Otherwise how else could I make you taste
19:02What it's like to lose everything
19:03David's eyes turned red
19:04How could you be so cruel?
19:06I laughed
19:07Cruel?
19:07Were you not cruel
19:08When you left me and our daughter on the highway?
19:09Were you not cruel
19:10When you chose another family
19:11Over your own daughter dying in the snow?
19:12David opened his mouth
19:13But no words came out
19:14I'll give you two choices now
19:16First
19:16Get out
19:17Never show your face again
19:18Second
19:18I'll call the police
19:19And charge you with abandonment
19:20I have all of Lily's medical records
19:22All the recordings of our calls
19:23Enough to put you in jail for years
19:25David shook his head
19:26Lily is my daughter
19:27She's not your daughter
19:29The moment you left her on that highway
19:30You lost the right to be her father
19:32Vivian
19:32I'm sorry
19:33I'm really sorry
19:34Let me see her
19:35Just one look
19:35I don't deserve to be her father
19:37I'll be your slave
19:38I'll make it up to you both
19:38Please
19:39I watched him on his knees in the dirt
19:40Sobbing uncontrollably
19:42I'm sorry
19:42I turned and got back in the car
19:44My heart was completely calm
19:46David scrambled to his feet
19:47And tried to chase after us
19:48But the man in the suit stopped him
19:50Who are you?
19:50Assistant to the chairman of Sterling Group
19:52Ms. Vivian is the chairman's only daughter
19:54And the sole heir to Sterling Group
19:56The man smiled slightly
19:57David froze in place
19:58She said her family was a farming family
20:00That was a lie
20:00The assistant said
20:01The chairman didn't want his daughter to marry someone who only wanted her money
20:03Unfortunately you still let her down
20:04The car pulled away
20:05I watched David from the rear window
20:07On his knees
20:08Lily snuggled in my arms and asked in a small voice
20:11Yeah baby
20:11Going home
20:13Our home
20:14I officially took over Sterling Group
20:15Father retired and spent his days growing flowers and fishing
20:18Only occasionally would he ask me
20:19You still hate him?
20:20No
20:20Hating someone is too tiring
20:22I don't have the energy for it
20:23Do you still think about him?
20:24Dad do you think that's possible?
20:25I have a career
20:26A daughter
20:26Family
20:26I don't need a man to mess things up
20:28Then I'll go watch Lily practice the piano
20:29I stood up and left the study
20:31The corridor was long
20:33At the end was Lily's piano room
20:36She was playing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
20:38It was simple but she didn't hit a single wrong note
20:40Three years ago the doctor said she might be paralyzed for life with impaired intelligence
20:44Three years later she could run and jump, play the piano, and speak fluent French
20:48It was money that had bought her health
20:50And the true nature of people's heart
20:53My phone vibrated
20:54My assistant sent a message saying
20:56Boss, there's a man downstairs in the company
20:57He says he has to see you
20:58Tell him I'm not available
20:59He's on his knees
21:00Says he won't leave until he sees you
21:02I walked to the window and pulled back the blinds
21:05Outside the company building David was on his knees by the road
21:08Holding a sign dot it read
21:10I'm sorry
21:10I watched for a moment
21:12Tell security to drag him away
21:14If he keeps pestering us call the police
21:15I hung up the phone
21:17Three months later David was found dead in his rented apartment
21:20The news came while I was signing a cross-border merger and acquisition agreement
21:24I didn't pause with my pen
21:26I closed the document and nodded at my assistant
21:28The sun was shining brightly outside the window
21:30On my ring finger where there had long been no ring
21:33I went back to the piano room and sat down next to Lily
21:38Lily turned to look at me
21:39Mom, are you crying?
21:41I touched my face
21:42Sure enough, there were tears
21:44No baby
21:45Just some dust in my eyes
21:47I'll blow away the dust in your eyes
21:50Mom, there's a parent-child activity at kindergarten tomorrow
21:54Will you come?
21:54I kissed her forehead
21:55Of course I will
21:56I love you
21:57She said suddenly
21:58I hugged her tight
21:59Mom loves you too
22:01More than anything in the world
22:04Today is Christmas Day
22:05On a highway
22:06With the temperature at 5 degrees below zero
22:08I held my three-year-old daughter in my arms
22:10And watched him start the car again
22:11It's been four years since we got married
22:14And this is the first time I've realized just how cruel my husband can be
22:19He left his wife and daughter on the highway for the sake of someone else's daughter
22:22All because Mason said
22:24I don't want to
22:27I don't want to sit with that dirty kid
22:29Um, David, it's fine
22:32We can all squeeze in
22:33Did you hear that?
22:35Get out
22:36Mia's on the way
22:37She'll be here in half an hour
22:39I stood by the guardrail of the emergency lane with Lily in my arms
22:43Trying to shield her from the wind and snow with my body
22:46Mom, where's Daddy?
22:47Daddy went to Grandma's first
22:50Aunt Mia will come pick us up soon
22:52I called Mia
22:53Vivian?
22:54What's wrong?
22:55Mia, your brother told you to come pick us up
22:58Where are you?
22:59You just wait a bit
22:59I'll come over later
23:00Brother said Chloe and Mason can't stand the wind
23:03We had to get them back home quick
23:04It's not like you'll die
23:06Lily trembled in my arms
23:08Mom, I want to go home
23:10Soon, baby
23:11We'll be home soon
23:13A black SUV slowed down and stopped in front of us
23:16A black SUV slowed down and stopped in front of us
23:20Need help?
23:21Can you give us a lift?
23:22Just to the next service area
23:25Get in
23:26Thank you
23:27Thank you so much
23:28I reached for the car door
23:29It was Charles, David's cousin
23:31Vivian, what are you doing here?
23:33Where's my brother?
23:34I told him the story in a few quick words
23:36Is he insane?
23:38Leaving you and Lily here?
23:39Chloe's daughter is a human being
23:41But his own daughter isn't?
23:43Leo, let them get in first
23:44We'll squeeze
23:45There's no space left
23:46You guys go on
23:47I'll wait here
23:48Charles pushed me toward the car
23:49That's not right
23:49Hurry up
23:50Lily's face is turning verbal
23:51She can't stay in the cold any longer
23:54Charles, it's freezing out here
23:56What about you?
23:57I'm a grown man
23:58What's there to be afraid of?
23:59Take care of the kid first
24:00Go the car, pull the way
24:01His figure growing smaller and smaller
24:03Lily fell asleep in my arms
24:06Sir, can you go a little faster?
24:08My daughter has a fever
24:09The driver nodded and stepped on the gas
24:11I took out my phone
24:12Ready to call Mia again
24:13Only to find there was no signal
24:15The highway cut through the mountains
24:17With signal coming and going in fits and starts
24:20How much longer to the service area?
24:2220 kilometers
24:24But in this weather, at least half an hour
24:26I held Lily tight, touching her forehead
24:28It was getting hotter by the minute
24:30Lily opened her eyes drowsily
24:31She suddenly started coughing
24:33So hard her little face turned purple
24:35The driver looked anxious too
24:36This is as fast as I can go
24:38The roads are slippery with snow
24:39I unbuttoned her clothes and saw her chest heaving violently
24:43Lily, look at mom
24:44Don't close your eyes
24:46Mom will tell you a story
24:47The story of the little white rabbit
24:49I banged on the car window like a mad woman
24:51Help!
24:52But on the highway, there was nothing but wind and snow
24:55The car finally pulled into the service area
24:58Is there a doctor here?
24:59The clerk was startled
25:00I, I'm sorry, there's no doctor here
25:03Call a doctor!
25:04Hurry!
25:06The signal tower's broken
25:07My legs gave way, and I almost fell to my knees
25:10The owner of the small hotel at the service area rummaged around for a long time
25:14And pulled out a box of fever medicine and antibiotics
25:17Lily lay on my lap
25:19Her breathing so faint it seemed it might stop at any moment
25:23I tried to feed her the medicine
25:25What if I drive you to the county hospital?
25:27But with the snow this bad, the roads might be closed
25:30Go!
25:31Let's go right now!
25:33The car inched forward on the snow-covered road
25:35Every jolt made Lily's body go limp a little more
25:39Lily, didn't you say you wanted to go to Disneyland?
25:42Mom will take you there
25:43We'll ride the biggest carousel
25:44You want to wear the Elsa dress, don't you?
25:47Mom will also take you to Universal Studios
25:50Her eyelashes fluttered
25:52Her eyelashes fluttered
25:54But she never opened her eyes
25:55My phone suddenly vibrated
25:57Signal
25:59I dialed David's number with trembling fingers
26:01It rang for a long time before he finally answered
26:04Hello?
26:05The background was quiet
26:06Lily is sick, really sick
26:08Where are you two?
26:09We're on the way to the hospital, please come quickly
26:11Vivian, he cut me off
26:12Didn't Mia go to pick you up?
26:14She never came, she never even showed up
26:15That's impossible, she just posted on her moments, said she was on the way
26:18I froze
26:19I opened Instagram and found Mia's profile
26:22Her latest post, 10 minutes ago
26:23The location showed she was 100 kilometers away from us
26:27She'd never moved an inch
26:29She'd lied to you, and she'd lied to me
26:32Mia will be there soon
26:33We can't wait, Lily is dying
26:35Our daughter is dying, David
26:37Vivian, it's Christmas Day
26:38Don't say such unlucky things
26:39Talking about death and dying
26:40Chloe and Mason just arrived
26:42Don't ruin the mood
26:42Once Mia picks you up, just take Lily to a hospital
26:45It'll be fine
26:45Kids get fevers all the time
26:47She won't die
26:47Stop being unreasonable, be good
26:49He hung up the phone
26:49I clutched my phone, my blood running cold
26:52Your husband?
26:54Bastard
26:55Hold on tight, I'll take a shortcut
26:57I won't let this kid die
26:58Snow fell even harder
27:00Lily's breathing was almost inaudible
27:02I pulled a metal device the size of a button out of my inner pocket
27:06Father had said that as long as I pressed it, his men would be here within three hours
27:10We finally reached the hospital
27:12I rushed into the emergency room with Lily in my arms
27:15Acute pneumonia!
27:17Heart rate dropping!
27:18Prepare for resuscitation!
27:21I was stopped outside the resuscitation room
27:23I watched the doctors intubate Lily and hook her up to a monitor
27:27Her tiny body lay on the hospital bed as if it might vanish at any moment
27:30I squatted in the corner
27:31My phone rang again
27:34David
27:36Vivian, where are you two?
27:37My mom's waiting for dinner
27:39I opened my mouth, but no sound came out
27:41Speak!
27:42Hospital, Lily is in ICU
27:44What?
27:45Why are you at the hospital?
27:46Where's Mia?
27:46She never came
27:47That's impossible, she just texted me, said she picked you up
27:49I opened the family group chat
27:5120 minutes ago, she sent a message
27:53Brother picked up Vivian
27:55She's lying
27:55David, come to the hospital, now
27:57Are you just doing this because Khloe is here and you're jealous?
27:59Our daughter can barely breathe and you think this is jealousy?
28:02What else?
28:03Lily gets colds all the time, you're overreacting
28:05And honestly, I'm tired of you making every day about your feelings
28:07David, if Lily dies today, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life
28:11That's your choice, but I'm not leaving here tonight
28:15He hung up
28:15I listened to the dial tone and slid slowly to the floor
28:19She suffered from oxygen deprivation for too long
28:21There's brain damage
28:22It may affect her intelligence in the future or even leave her paralyzed for life
28:25I grabbed the wall to keep from falling
28:27The world went black before my eyes
28:29We did everything we could
28:31First go through the admission procedures
28:32The follow-up treatment won't be cheap, okay?
28:34I stumbled to the payment counter in a daze
28:37Insufficient funds
28:38David only gave me $500 a month for living expenses
28:41Saying it was enough to raise a child
28:43I called him
28:44The background was lively, like he was eating dinner
28:47What now?
28:48Lily needs surgery, transfer $1,000 to me
28:50$10,000?
28:52Vivian, do you think I'm an ATM?
28:54Or a printing pren?
28:55David, $10,000 to me
28:57David, Lily is your daughter
28:58Are you going to transfer the money or not?
29:00No, I'm not going to keep funding your drama every time you want my attention
29:02As for Lily, if you're going to use her as a weapon every time we argue
29:05Then maybe you two are better off on your own
29:07I hung up the phone weekly
29:11Can you treat her first?
29:12I'll pay you back slowly
29:13I'm sorry, hospital rules
29:15We need a deposit first
29:16I walked out of the hospital and stood in the snow
29:19My phone vibrated
29:20It was Charles
29:21Vivian, where are you?
29:23My brother said Mia picked you up
29:24Charles
29:25Do me a favor
29:27Anything
29:28If I die, take care of Lily for me
29:32What nonsense are you talking about?
29:34I have no money left
29:35There's no hope for Lily
29:37David doesn't want to help
29:38I have nothing left
29:40Send her to an orphan hatch
29:42At least she'll live
29:43Vivian, don't do anything stupid
29:44Where are you?
29:45I'll be there right away
29:46No need
29:46I hung up and turned off my phone
29:48I walked back to the ward
29:50Baby mom, I'm so sorry
29:52In the next life, don't be my daughter
29:54I bent down and kissed her forehead
29:56Find a hood family
29:58Be a beloved baby
29:59The hospital rooftop was battered by wind and snow
30:02I stood at the edge looking down
30:04People walking by were so small
30:06If I jumped, everything would be over
30:08I closed my eyes and leaned forward
30:11A hand suddenly grabbed my wrist
30:13I fell to the ground and looked up
30:15Several men in black suits stood in front of me
30:17I was lifted onto a helicopter
30:19Lily was carried on board too
30:21And the doctors who'd come with us took over at once
30:23Intracranial pressure is too high
30:25She needs surgery immediately
30:26Call the hospital
30:27Tell them we're coming
30:28Get everything ready
30:29I'm sorry baby
30:31Dad came from me
30:32Father held my hand
30:32His hands shaking non-stop
30:34I stared at him as if in a dream
30:36That was a lie
30:38I was afraid he'd marry only for money
30:39I knew our family's wealthy
30:40So I pretended to be poor well
30:42But I never thought
30:43He looked at the unconscious Lily
30:44And tears fell
30:45I never thought they'd be this cruel
30:46To mistreat my granddaughter like this
30:48The helicopter landed on the roof of the hospital
30:50Lily was wheeled straight into the operating room
30:53Father stood outside the operating room
30:55And made a phone call
30:56Carter Group
30:56I want to see its stock drop to the limit
30:58Before the market opens tomorrow
31:00Terminate all collaboration deals
31:01You know what to do with the banks
31:03Vivian
31:04Bad will give you two choices
31:06First
31:06Get a divorce
31:07Take the money
31:08Take Lily abroad
31:09And never come wait for the rest of your life
31:10Second
31:12Stay and watch this man fall apart
31:13Watch David get on his knees
31:15And beg for your forgiveness
31:17I thought for a moment
31:18Second
31:19But I have one more condition
31:21Say it
31:22Prepare a corpse for me
31:23One that looks exactly like me
31:24Frozen to death on the side of the highway with a child
31:26You want to?
31:27I want them to think I'm dead
31:29Then I want to watch with my own eyes
31:31How they celebrate
31:31How can they celebrate Christmas happily
31:33While Lily and I are dead
31:35Father was silent for a long time
31:36Then nodded
31:37All right
31:38The corpse was incredibly lifelike
31:40Someone passing by found them and called the police
31:42The police contacted David using the phone they found on me
31:45When the phone rang
31:46David's family was having their Christmas dinner
31:48A table full of food, laughter and chatter filling the room
31:51Joel sat next to David putting food on his plate
31:54Mason called Grandma sweetly
31:56Grandma
31:56Chloe is such a good girl
31:57Even her daughter is so sensible
31:59Unlike Vivian who had that little crybaby
32:01So fussy, such a nuisance
32:02David's phone rang
32:03He glanced at it and frowned
32:05Police
32:06Hello? Is this Mr. David?
32:08Is your wife Vivian with your daughter on the highway?
32:10Yes
32:11What's wrong?
32:12We found two bodies by the highway
32:13Initial judgment is death by hypothermia
32:15The female victim has an ID card with the name Vivian
32:18There's also a little girl around three years old
32:21Please come and identify them
32:22What did you say?
32:24Your wife and daughter may have had an accident
32:26The entire table fell silent
32:28How unlucky to be like this on Christmas
32:30David stood up, his face as white as a sheet
32:33Vivian and Lily froze to death?
32:34A police officer led him into the mortuary
32:38The cold storage drawer was pulled open
32:40Revealing the two bodies
32:41One big, one small
32:42The older one wore my down jacket
32:44Is this them?
32:51Impossible
32:54Mia clearly went to pick them up
32:56We reviewed the surveillance footage
32:57Her sister's car never even got on the highway
32:58She drove around the city for a while
32:59Then went home
33:00Besides, the last call on the deceased's phone was to you
33:02It was at seven last night
33:03She said the child was sick and begged you for help
33:04And you said
33:05You said she was overreacting
33:06That you weren't going to fund her drama
33:07I thought
33:09I thought she was exaggerating
33:11I
33:12I didn't know it was real
33:15Would you have gone if you'd known?
33:16The mortuary door opened
33:18David's mother rushed in
33:19Saw the bodies
33:20Oh my granddaughter
33:22My sweet baby
33:23Why did you have to leave like this?
33:25Grandma didn't get to love you enough
33:26She cried for two seconds
33:27Then suddenly stopped and grabbed David
33:30Now that Vivian is dead
33:32You can marry Chloe
33:34She's young
33:34She's kind
33:35And she loves you
33:37David turned to look at her
33:39His eyes blank and strange
33:40Mom, that's my daughter
33:41Your granddaughter
33:43I know, I know
33:44It's heartbreaking
33:44But dwelling on it won't bring them back
33:46Life moves forward
33:48Call the lawyer
33:49We'll handle the paperwork quietly
33:50Don't drag this out
33:51Hurry up
33:52Chloe is waiting at home
33:53Mrs
33:54These are two human lives
33:56So what about human lives?
33:57This is our family's business
33:58It's none of your business
34:00David's mother pulled him toward the door
34:01Chloe is waiting for us to go back to dinner
34:04David let her drag him away
34:05Then he looked back at the cold storage drawer
34:07Wait
34:08He wrenched his arm free and walked back
34:10Wait
34:11Vivian, I'm sorry
34:15I was wrong
34:15I really
34:17Didn't know it would be like this
34:18Why are you apologizing to her?
34:20She's just unlucky to hear
34:22Serves her right
34:23Shut up
34:28I want to take the bodies back
34:30Hold a funeral
34:31A grand one
34:32A black wreath hung on the front door of the Carter family house
34:36Chole and Mason moved into the master bedroom
34:41David's mother kept trying to take down the black wreath
34:45David didn't listen
34:46He sat in the morning hall keeping vigil beside the coffins
34:49Brother, I didn't mean to
34:50I just forgot about it because I was having fun with friends
34:53I never thought they'd actually die
34:55Forgot about it?
34:56Two human lives
34:57And you just say you forgot about it?
34:58What do you want me to do then?
35:00It's not my fault she had no one to rely on
35:03David raised his hand and slapped her heart across the face
35:06Get out
35:07If I see you again, I'll disown you
35:13Mia ran away crying
35:16Chole came over with Mason
35:17Her voice soft and comforting
35:19Vivian would not want to see you like this wherever she is
35:22David looked up at her
35:23Do you know what you were doing when they were dying?
35:25I was eating dinner at your house
35:27They were dying in the snow
35:29Waiting for someone who would never come
35:31That's your sister's fault
35:33What does it have to do with me?
35:34It was your mom who insisted that I come back with you for Christmas
35:36Otherwise I wouldn't have to suffer like this
35:38Besides, it was you who threw them out of the car
35:40Right, you endured so much trouble
35:41But they froze to death
35:42To death in the snow
35:44Two lives lost
35:45And Lily was only three years old
35:46Chole said nothing
35:48David stood up and walked to the coffins
35:49Running his hand gently over them
35:52I've been thinking these past few days
35:55What if I'd answered the phone?
35:56What if I'd gone to pick them up?
35:58What if I hadn't said those things?
36:00Before she walked out the door
36:01She threw a sentence over her shoulder
36:03I'm still here
36:04Talk to me when you feel better
36:06The door to the morning hall closed
36:07David slid down to the floor
36:09Leaning against the coffin
36:10In the surveillance room
36:12I watched his shoulders shake
36:13How ridiculous
36:14He didn't cherish Lily when she was alive
36:17Only cried for her when she was dead
36:18I texted father
36:20Can we start?
36:21Father replied
36:21Anytime
36:22David's business began to collapse
36:24First, their biggest client
36:26Suddenly terminated the contract
36:27And signed a 10-year long-term deal
36:30With a competitor the next day
36:32Then the banks called in their loans
36:33And the cash flow dried up
36:35Suppliers swarmed the company to demand payment
36:38His mother called to yell at him
36:40You're never home
36:41What if Chloe gets angry?
36:42The company is falling apart
36:44Do you understand that?
36:47So what if it falls apart?
36:48We still have money
36:49Money?
36:50Mom, we're going bankrupt
36:52The house, the cars, the savings
36:54All of it will be sold to pay the debts
36:57You might not even have enough to eat in the future
36:59He sat in his office staring out the window
37:01He'd worked hard in the city for 10 years
37:04Now, it was all gone in one night
37:05His phone rang an unknown number
37:10And a man's voice came through
37:11Mr. David, have you received the gift?
37:13You just need to know this is only the beginning
37:15The debt you owe must be repaid
37:17With the entire family's phone
37:18The phone hung up
37:19David called back
37:20But the number was already disconnected
37:22He clutched the phone
37:23His hands shaking
37:24Carter Group was officially declared bankrupt
37:26And put into liquidation
37:29David's mother moved out of the villa
37:30And into a rented apartment
37:32Joel left with Mason
37:33Taking the last of the cash with her
37:35Before she went
37:35My daughter Mason still has to go to school
37:37David didn't stop her
37:38He moved into the morning hall
37:39He spread a quilt on the floor
37:41And slept there
37:42You ruined the family fortune for a dead woman
37:44How can you face mom?
37:46David looked at her
37:47Then who can face Vivian?
37:48Who can face Lily?
37:50Mia was lost for words
37:51And left crying
37:52She never came back
37:56David started looking for a job
37:57But no one wanted to hire a bankrupt boss
37:59He had to go work at a construction site
38:02Carrying bricks
38:05At night
38:05He went back to the morning hall
38:07And ate steamed buns with cold water
38:09Then he sat beside the coffins
38:11And talked to himself
38:12Vivian the foreman yelled at me today
38:14Said I'm weak not a real man
38:16I remembered you used to tell me
38:18Not to work so hard
38:19To take care of myself
38:20I thought you were just nagging back then
38:22Now I realize you really cared about me
38:25He pulled out a crumpled cigarette and lit it
38:27If Lily were alive
38:28She'd be in kindergarten now
38:29You said you wanted to send her to learn the piano
38:31I said it was a waste of time
38:33I'm such an idiot
38:37The cigarette burned down to his fingers
38:39But he didn't notice
38:39In the surveillance room
38:41Father asked me
38:42Still watching?
38:43I shook my head
38:44No
38:45Get everything ready
38:47I'll go back to the company next week
38:49You're going to take over?
38:52That's right
38:52David's family has fallen
38:54And I've avenged my grudge
38:56Now it's time to live my own life
39:03Alright
39:04But there's one thing you need to know
39:06David is looking for you
39:09It seems he's found out the bodies are fake
39:11David had indeed found out
39:13In the pocket of my down jacket
39:15There was a shopping receipt
39:16He waited three days after I died
39:18For a strawberry cake Lily's favorite
39:19He rushed to the cake shop
39:21And asked to see the surveillance footage
39:24On the screen
39:25A woman wearing a mask
39:26Held a little girl's hand
39:27The little girl hopped and skipped
39:29Pointing at the cake display case
39:31The woman bent down
39:32Listened to her
39:33Then smiled and nodded
39:34It was me
39:35David ran out of the cake shop
39:37Like a madman
39:38He went to every place
39:40We'd ever been together
39:40Parks
39:43Malls
39:44Amusement parks
39:45Finally he saw Lily
39:46At the gate of a private kindergarten
39:48A man in a suit was holding her hand
39:49About to lead her to a car
39:50Lily
39:51David rushed over
39:52Sir
39:53Lily saw him
39:54Froze for a second
39:55Then hid behind the man
39:57She's my daughter
39:58Where's Vivian?
39:59Man frowned
40:00I don't know anyone named Vivian
40:02Please
40:02Step aside
40:03Lily suddenly burst into tears
40:05Bad guy
40:07You're a bad guy
40:08You made mom cry
40:10David froze
40:12Lily
40:14I'm daddy
40:15You're not
40:16Lily shouted
40:17Mighty is dead
40:18Mom said so
40:19He didn't want us anymore
40:21He's dead
40:21Just then
40:21A black car pulled up
40:22And stopped by the road
40:23The window rolled down
40:25I sat in the back seat
40:26David saw me
40:27And his pupils constricted
40:28Vivian
40:29You're really alive
40:29You're really alive
40:30Getting out of the car
40:31And walking over
40:31To pick Lily up
40:32Mom
40:33That bad guy
40:35Tried to grab me
40:36Don't be afraid baby
40:37Mom's here
40:38David stared at me
40:39As if seeing me
40:39For the first time
40:41You've been lying to me
40:41This whole time
40:42Yes I admitted
40:43The bodies were fake
40:44Otherwise how else
40:45Could I make you taste
40:45What it's like to lose everything
40:46David's eyes turned red
40:47How could you be so cruel
40:50I laughed
40:50Cruel?
40:51Were you not cruel
40:51When you left me
40:52And our daughter on the highway?
40:53Were you not cruel
40:53When you chose another family
40:54Over your own daughter
40:55Dying in the snow?
40:56David opened his mouth
40:56But no words came out
40:57I'll give you two choices now
40:59First
40:59Get out
41:00Never show your face again
41:01Second
41:02I'll call the police
41:03And charge you with abandonment
41:04I have all of Lily's medical records
41:05All the recordings of our calls
41:07Enough to put you in jail for years
41:08David shook his head
41:09Lily is my daughter
41:10She's not your daughter
41:12The moment you left her on that highway
41:14You lost the right to be her father
41:15David suddenly dropped to his knees
41:17I'm really sorry
41:17Let me see her
41:18Just one look
41:19I don't deserve to be her father
41:20I'll be your slave
41:21I'll make it up to you both
41:22Please
41:22I watched him on his knees
41:23In the dirt
41:24Sobbing uncontrollably
41:25I'm sorry
41:26I turned and got back in the car
41:27My heart was completely calm
41:29David scrambled to his feet
41:30And tried to chase after us
41:32But the man in the suit
41:33Stopped him
41:33Assistant to the chairman
41:34Of Sterling Group
41:35Ms. Vivian
41:36Is the chairman's only daughter
41:37And the sole heir to Sterling Group
41:39The man smiled slightly
41:40David froze in place
41:41She said her family was a farming family
41:43That was a lie
41:43The assistant said
41:44The chairman didn't want his daughter
41:45To marry someone who only wanted her money
41:46Unfortunately you still let her down
41:47The car pulled away
41:48I watched David from the rear window
41:50On his knees
41:51Lily snuggled in my arms
41:53And asked in a small voice
41:54Yeah baby
41:54Going home
41:56Our home
41:57I officially took over Sterling Group
41:59Father retired and spent his days
42:00Growing flowers and fishing
42:01Only occasionally would he ask me
42:03Do you still hate him?
42:03No
42:04Hating someone is too tiring
42:05I don't have the energy for it
42:06Do you still think about him?
42:07Dad do you think that's possible?
42:08I have a career
42:09A daughter
42:09Family
42:10I don't need a man to mess things up
42:11Then I'll go watch Lily practice the piano
42:13I stood up and left the study
42:14The corridor was long
42:16At the end was Lily's piano room
42:19She was playing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
42:21It was simple
42:22But she didn't hit a single wrong note
42:23Three years ago
42:24The doctor said she might be paralyzed for life
42:27With impaired intelligence
42:28Three years later
42:28She could run and jump
42:29Play the piano
42:30And speak fluent French
42:31It was money that had bought her health
42:33And the true nature of people's heart
42:36My phone vibrated
42:38My assistant sent a message saying
42:39Boss, there's a man downstairs in the company
42:40He says he has to see you
42:41Tell him I'm not available
42:43He's on his knees
42:44Says he won't leave until he sees you
42:45I walked to the window
42:46And pulled back the blinds
42:49Outside the company building
42:50David was on his knees by the road
42:51Holding a sign dot
42:52It read
42:53I'm sorry
42:54I watched for a moment
42:55Tell security to drag him away
42:57If he keeps pestering us
42:58Call the police
42:59I hung up the phone
43:00Three months later
43:01David was found dead
43:02In his rented apartment
43:03The news came while I was signing
43:05A cross-border merger
43:06And acquisition agreement
43:07I didn't pause with my pen
43:09I closed the document
43:10And nodded at my assistant
43:11The sun was shining brightly
43:13Outside the window
43:13On my ring finger
43:15Where there had long been no ring
43:16I went back to the piano room
43:18And sat down next to Lily
43:21Lily turned to look at me
43:23Mom, are you crying?
43:24I touched my face
43:25Sure enough, there were tears
43:27No, baby
43:28Just some dust in my eyes
43:30I'll blow away the dust in your eyes
43:33Mom, there's a parent-child activity
43:36At kindergarten tomorrow
43:37Will you come?
43:38I kissed her forehead
43:39Of course I will
43:39I love you
43:40She said suddenly
43:41I hugged her tight
43:42Mom loves you too
43:44More than anything in the world
43:46Thanks for taking the 숫은
43:46Now she knows
43:46You should be
43:47I liar
43:47I love you
43:47You often
