00:00Dad has hated me for 10 years.
00:02On my 6th birthday, mom disappeared.
00:04You are a jinx.
00:05He blamed me for her disappearance.
00:07You don't look like your mother at all.
00:08He hated my face, because it looked nothing like hers.
00:11He adopted a girl who's a dead ringer for mom, Evelyn Voss.
00:15He put her on reality TV, paraded her on late night shows.
00:19She is the sole Sterling Air Air.
00:22Me? I sleep in the maid's quarters.
00:24I wear her hand-me-downs.
00:26He let her bully me.
00:28Let her frame me.
00:30She pushed me into the pool when I couldn't swim.
00:33Serves you right.
00:34For a long time, I believed him.
00:36Until my 16th birthday.
00:38The day mom came home.
00:40Three days before my birthday.
00:42Every year, dad throws Evelyn a huge party on my birthday.
00:45Everyone at my prep school got an invite.
00:47Elena, don't worry.
00:49Maybe the butler miscounted and missed one.
00:51I kept my head down.
00:52Kept writing.
00:54Didn't even blink.
00:56Even apologizing to her.
00:57You're being too nice, Evelyn.
00:58That's why she keeps walking all over you.
01:00Seriously, she's the maid's daughter.
01:02Freeloading at your mansion.
01:03Your dad pays for everything and she repays you by stealing?
01:07If I were you, I'd kick her to the curb.
01:09What a jerk.
01:10Such a jealous bitch.
01:12Be glad she's not coming.
01:13She'd just ruin the night.
01:15Oh, come on, stop.
01:17Elena shouldn't work.
01:18It's her birthday too, remember?
01:19Elena, I really wanted you to cut the cake with me.
01:22But daddy said no.
01:23After what you did, you can't blame him for hating you.
01:26I hurled my pen straight at her face.
01:29Back off!
01:30Broke jumped up and shoved me to the floor.
01:32My forehead slammed into the corner of a desk.
01:35The whole class just watched, smirking.
01:39From elementary school to high school, Evelyn turned everyone against me, and they made this
01:45into a game for fun.
01:46But I didn't care about being a loner.
01:49I cared about Mr. Collins calling a parent meeting for Monday.
01:53Broke's mom showed up and defended him without hesitation.
01:57Broke was just trying to help.
01:59Everyone saw Elena throw that pen at Evelyn.
02:04Sweetheart, are you okay?
02:06Did she hurt you anywhere?
02:08Her eyes cut back to me.
02:09That girl is unstable.
02:11She doesn't belong here.
02:12Who knows what psycho things she'll do next?
02:15I stood there, blood dripping down my face.
02:18I thought to myself, if mom were here, she'd rip them apart for me.
02:22Instead, I had dad.
02:24He didn't even glance at my bleeding head.
02:26He just checked Evelyn's perfect face for scratches.
02:33Go home.
02:37You know Evelyn has a TV shoot tomorrow, and you aim for her face?
02:44Elena, Rosalyn was a saint.
02:46How did she give birth to something so vicious?
02:50Sometimes I wonder if you're even hers.
02:52Was ruining your mom not enough?
02:54Now you're coming for Evelyn!
02:56I looked at dad.
02:57His face was twisted with disgust.
02:59But ten years ago, he wasn't like this.
03:03When mom was alive, he adored me.
03:05He poured everything into me.
03:07Though he always wished I looked more like her.
03:10He named me Elena.
03:12I was the treasure of the family.
03:14He bought me custom dresses.
03:16Hand-picked jewelry.
03:18For my fifth birthday, he gave me an estate.
03:21A kid pushed me in kindergarten once.
03:24Dad was furious.
03:25He forced the family to apologize.
03:27Then he hired private coaches to teach me self-defense.
03:31If anyone bullies you, you hit back.
03:32I don't care who it is.
03:34Mom and dad will always have your back, Elena.
03:36Always.
03:37And now, the man was holding his Evelyn like I was nothing to him.
03:48Get back to your room!
03:50Don't come out until I say so!
03:52He never asked about the wound on my forehead.
03:54And I never found the courage to tell him to see Mr. Collins.
03:59He wouldn't show up for me anyway.
04:02For the last ten years, he's only sat in the parents' row for Evelyn.
04:07They locked me in my room all night.
04:09By morning, the cut on my forehead was infected.
04:14I sneak out for the first aid kit.
04:16I pushed open the door and walked straight into a literal film crew.
04:21Cameras, boom mics, blinding ring lights.
04:24They had taken over our living room.
04:25Dad was sitting on the sofa with Evelyn.
04:28He wore a warm, loving smile.
04:30A smile I hadn't seen in ten years.
04:32As a billionaire CEO, how do you balance work and raising such a perfect daughter?
04:36Evelyn makes it easy.
04:37She's my only girl.
04:39I'll always make time for her.
04:42Daddy is the absolute best.
04:46But we haven't been to Europe yet this year.
04:50Anything you want, princess.
04:51Paris it is, right after your birthday.
04:54My mind went blank.
04:55I'd seen this act too many times to cry.
04:58Still, I couldn't stop myself.
05:00From thinking about ten years ago.
05:02I used to cling to mom's arm just like that.
05:05She gave me her favorite antique emerald necklace.
05:10Keep it safe, Elena.
05:12Grandma gave this to me.
05:15Her eyes had looked so sad back then.
05:17Evelyn, Rosalind was a Hollywood legend.
05:21Is your late mother the reason you want to go into acting?
05:24The room went still.
05:26Mom's name used to be taboo.
05:28Anyone who brought her up usually got fired.
05:30But today was Evelyn's big reality TV debut.
05:33Dad was paving her way to stardom.
05:36Evelyn lowered her eyes, looking heartbreakingly sincere.
05:40I miss my mom all the time.
05:42I want to act, to feel closer to her legacy.
05:45Then, she took something out of her pocket.
05:48This was the necklace she left me.
05:50Whenever I'm sad, I look at it, and it feels like she's still with me.
05:55I stared at it.
05:56Anger rose in me.
05:57That was my necklace.
05:59Mom gave it to me.
06:00For ten years, Evelyn stole my entire life.
06:03My room.
06:04My clothes.
06:05My birthday.
06:06Dad.
06:07But that necklace was the only thing I had left.
06:09I lunged forward and snatched it from her hand.
06:13Elena!
06:13Who the hell let you out?
06:15Elena, what are you doing?
06:17When did you steal that necklace?
06:20I checked my jewelry box every single night.
06:23It was there yesterday.
06:25All these years, no one cared whether I lived or died.
06:29The necklace was the only thing that kept me going.
06:32When I held it, I could feel Mom hugging me.
06:36What are you talking about?
06:38Elena, have you lost your mind?
06:39We're live streaming.
06:40Go to hell with your live streaming.
06:44That's my mother's necklace.
06:45Why does she get to take it?
06:47And my mother isn't dead.
06:49Shut your mouth, Evelyn.
06:50She didn't leave that behind.
06:51Mr. Sterling.
06:53Who is this girl?
06:55Evelyn panicked, looking at Dad for a save.
06:59She's just a maid's daughter.
07:01I held the necklace in my hand.
07:03A freezing chill ran down my spine.
07:06The first time he disowned me to the entire world.
07:09Evelyn's panic disappeared.
07:11A smug gleam flashed in her eyes.
07:13She reached out to grab the necklace back.
07:15If you want jewelry, I'll buy you a diamond.
07:17Whatever you want.
07:18But this is my mom's.
07:20I can't give it to you.
07:21Give it back!
07:23That's the last thing my mom gave me!
07:24Give it back!
07:25I yanked the chain.
07:27Evelyn let go.
07:28She let go on purpose.
07:32The necklace hit the marble floor.
07:34The green emerald shattered into jagged pieces.
07:36I stumbled back.
07:38My mind went entirely blank.
07:40The very last piece of my mom.
07:42Gone.
07:43Are you satisfied now, you psycho?
07:46Get out!
07:47Elena!
07:48How could you?
07:49I didn't hear a word of it.
07:51I dropped to my knees on the cold marble.
07:54I scrambled to pick up the broken green shards.
07:57The pieces cut into my fingers.
08:00My tears hit the wounds.
08:02Hot and stinging.
08:06I went viral.
08:08The bad kind.
08:09The livestream clip blew up overnight.
08:12Everyone pitied Sebastian and Evelyn.
08:15I was public enemy number one.
08:18Classmates flooded the comments.
08:20Playing the insider sources.
08:21They spun a shiny new narrative.
08:23I was just a troubled foster kid.
08:26The Sterlings took me in out of pity.
08:28And I had bullied Evelyn for years.
08:31I stopped reading there.
08:35Rosaline was my mother.
08:36If mom were still here,
08:38would she feel sorry for me?
08:40Or would she stand with Evelyn just like dad did?
08:42I don't look a single thing like her.
08:44Evelyn is her spitting image.
08:47And I was the reason mom went missing in the first place.
08:51It was Evelyn's birthday party.
08:53The whole class was there.
08:56They came to my door,
08:58mocking me from the hallway,
08:59calling me a freak to defend Evelyn.
09:03I was locked inside.
09:05On dad's orders.
09:06He stood outside the door.
09:08Elena, how could you do this to your mother?
09:10That necklace was her prized possession.
09:12Do you know how hard Evelyn worked for that TV spot?
09:14If Rosa Aachen saw the monster you've become,
09:16she'd regret ever having you.
09:19His footsteps faded down the hall.
09:23Then, the lock clicked.
09:25Evelyn strode in, holding a spare key.
09:28So, Elena,
09:29how did it feel?
09:31Being called the maid's trash on live TV?
09:34She circled me like a vulture.
09:36You've got zero shame staying here.
09:39You killed your mom.
09:41Dad hates you.
09:42He wishes you were dead.
09:44He just won't say it out loud.
09:45I didn't answer.
09:47I just stared out the window.
09:49The estates' lake was lined with party tents,
09:51balloons,
09:52champagne towers,
09:53a take,
09:54mountains of designer gift boxes.
09:56It was the birthday party of my dreams.
09:58The party I was promised ten years ago.
10:00Every single year,
10:01I watched her live my life.
10:03Someone called for Evelyn to cut the cake.
10:05My silence pissed her off.
10:07Elena!
10:08I'm talking to you!
10:09Why didn't you die with your mother?
10:11She snatched the broken emerald pieces from my hand
10:14and threw them out the window.
10:16Down into the deep, dark lake.
10:18My brain completely short-serted.
10:19I didn't even think.
10:20I climbed onto the windowsill,
10:22and I jumped.
10:23Gasps and screams echoed from the party below.
10:26Freezing water flooded my lungs.
10:27Everything went dark.
10:28But right before I lost consciousness,
10:30I swear I heard a voice.
10:31Elena!
10:32Mommy's right here!
10:35I thought I was dead.
10:37Then, I opened my eyes
10:39and saw the one face I'd missed for ten years.
10:43Mom.
10:44She looked almost exactly the same.
10:47Mom?
10:48I was terrified she would vanish if I blinked.
10:51I'm right here, baby.
10:53Tell me, did someone push you?
10:54Before I could answer.
10:56Mom!
10:57It was just an accident!
10:58We were just playing!
11:00And she fell!
11:01That's when I realized the room was full.
11:04Evelyn, the estate doctor, and...
11:06Dad.
11:07Dad was staring at Mom.
11:09Who the hell are you?
11:10I only have one daughter.
11:12Evelyn's fake smile dropped.
11:14She looked at Dad in a panic.
11:17My mother followed her gaze.
11:19Sebastian?
11:21You'd better explain.
11:23Is this your secret daughter?
11:26Darling, no!
11:27I swear!
11:28Evelyn is adopted!
11:29Adopted?
11:30Mom let out a bitter, cutting laugh.
11:32She looked at Evelyn's muu-mu dress, then my dusty room.
11:37You treat a stranger's kid better than your own flesh and blood?
11:41I've been gone ten years, Sebastian.
11:44And you shoved my daughter in a broom closet?
11:46And the luxury party outside?
11:50Today is Elena's birthday!
11:53Why is her name on the banners?
11:56Rosalind, please!
11:57I'll fix it right now!
12:00Pack Elena's things.
12:02Move her back to the master quad.
12:04What about Miss Evelyn's things?
12:06Throw them in a guest room!
12:07I don't care!
12:09Daddy!
12:09Evelyn burst into real, ugly tears.
12:12Rosalind, is this okay?
12:17Mom looked down at me, waiting for my lead.
12:20That was when I knew.
12:21Mom really come back.
12:23Mom, I choked out.
12:25I don't want to stay here.
12:27Can you take me with you?
12:28I will.
12:30As soon as you feel better, we're gone.
12:37I used to dream about this moment.
12:40Always.
12:41When Sebastian blamed me without even hearing my side.
12:44But as the years dragged on,
12:46I stopped hoping.
12:48I thought I drove Mom away when I was six.
12:50I thought she hated me too.
12:52But now, she was really here.
12:54Squeezed into my tiny, lumpy twin bed.
12:56Holding me tight.
12:58Apologing over and over.
12:59Ten years ago, I didn't leave you by choice.
13:03She was taken far away and trapped for years.
13:06Fought like hell to come back to you.
13:09Everyone thought she was gone for good.
13:11But I never gave up on coming home.
13:14And to make it back to me,
13:16she paid a terrible price.
13:20Mom.
13:22You're not leaving me again, right?
13:28She held me tighter.
13:30No.
13:31I am never letting you go, Elena.
13:34Out in the hallway, the floor bones gave a heavy creak.
13:36Dad was standing right outside the door,
13:39listening in the dark.
13:40Mom shot a dark, warning look at the door frame.
13:43Then she stroped my hair.
13:45Go to sleep, baby.
13:47When you wake up, Mom will still be right here.
13:49My mother heard what my classmates did to me.
13:52The next morning, she came to school with me.
13:56For years, I had taken the bus alone.
13:59The family driver was only for Evelyn.
14:02But this morning was different.
14:04A sleek black SUV blocked our path down the driveway.
14:09Rosalyn, let me drive you and Elena.
14:13Evelyn stood in the doorway,
14:14her face stiff with jealousy.
14:16Her things had already been moved out.
14:20Everyone in the house knew that she was losing her place.
14:24No, thanks.
14:26Are you sure the maid's trash is allowed in your pristine car?
14:29I'm sorry, Rosaline.
14:31I can explain the live stream.
14:33Elena stormed in and caused a scene.
14:35I was just blind with rage.
14:37I didn't mean to...
14:37Caused a scene?
14:39Her heirloom was stolen.
14:41She was just taking it back.
14:42I mean, can you really blame her?
14:44Sebastian!
14:45That was my mother's necklace!
14:47You knew exactly what it was!
14:51Her eyes grew red with furious tears,
14:54remembering the viral comments.
14:59Dad hurried out of the car.
15:02I was a total bastard.
15:04I'll make it up to Elena, I swear.
15:06Make it up to her?
15:08You're a complete stranger to her.
15:10We don't need your pity.
15:11Come on, Elena.
15:13Mom grabbed my hand.
15:14We walked right past him.
15:17We got into the car.
15:20Dad's SUV trailed slowly behind us,
15:24all the way to school.
15:25Thanks to Evelyn's smear campaigns,
15:28I was the absolute outcast at school.
15:33Elena, no parents again?
15:36I warned you last time.
15:38If your parents don't show up today,
15:40I'm drawing up your expulsion papers.
15:43I am Elena's mother,
15:44and I want the little punk
15:46who pushed my daughter
15:47brought in here right now.
15:48He is going to apologize.
15:51In ten years,
15:52I had never had a parent showed up.
15:54No parent-teacher nights,
15:55no school plays,
15:57nothing.
15:59Oh my God!
16:00You're Rosalind Vail!
16:02I grew up watching your movies!
16:07But wait,
16:08aren't you married to Sebastian Sterling?
16:11Isn't his only daughter Evelyn?
16:15Sebastian Sterling is insane.
16:19He treats a stranger's kid
16:21like pure gold
16:23and throws his own flesh and blood
16:27to the wolves!
16:30I'm not sorry.
16:31I was being a good guy.
16:33She threw a pen at Evelyn first.
16:37I'm sorry, ma'am.
16:38If anyone's to blame,
16:40blame me.
16:41He was just standing up for me.
16:43So really,
16:44it's all my fault.
16:45Don't try that act on me.
16:47I'm not Sebastian.
16:49You think I'd throw my own daughter
16:50under the bus for you?
16:52I knew you didn't like me, ma'am.
16:54But you don't have to call me an actor?
16:56I know exactly what you are.
16:58You stole her birthday celebration.
17:00You hijacked her life.
17:01You told the whole school
17:03she was the maid's trash.
17:05I know exactly what you whispered
17:07to her that day by the lake.
17:09I didn't say it.
17:11Dad did.
17:12He said Alina was the maid's...
17:15Shut your mouth, Evelyn!
17:17Shut your penises!
17:22One more word
17:23and you'll get out.
17:27Sorry, Alina.
17:29They practically shoved his face
17:31into the floor.
17:32We are so sorry, Alina.
17:34He will never bother you again.
17:37What is wrong with Sebastian Sturrent?
17:39Spoiling a random orphan
17:40treating his actual kid like garbage.
17:42No wonder the poor girl
17:43has no friends.
17:44Dad heard every single word.
17:46His shoulders completely froze.
17:50Alina.
17:53Who else bullied you?
17:54Tell Daddy.
17:55You know exactly
17:56who's been torturing her.
17:58The internet is still
17:59tearing her apart
18:00because of that live stream.
18:01Are you playing blind, Sebastian?
18:04You're done for the day.
18:05We are going home.
18:05We are turning on the camera.
18:07You are going to clear
18:08Alina's name.
18:09Live.
18:10What?
18:10No!
18:11Dad, my influencer deals!
18:13My agency will drop me!
18:14Do it!
18:14Or get out!
18:17The live stream officially started.
18:21Because Mom was on camera,
18:23viewership absolutely exploded.
18:29She took my hand
18:31and drew me closer to her side.
18:33Hello, everyone.
18:34I'm back
18:35and allow me to introduce you
18:37to my daughter.
18:38My actual biological daughter,
18:42Alina Sterling.
18:45Sebastian,
18:47care to explain?
18:48He paused for a second.
18:50Then,
18:51he finally caved.
18:54Rosalyn is right.
18:56Alina is our real daughter.
18:58Evelyn is adopted.
19:00I got her from a group home
19:02ten years ago.
19:03The other day,
19:04Alina stole Alina's necklace.
19:06It was a priceless family heirloom
19:08from my wife.
19:09Alina barged in
19:10because she was defending her property.
19:12I jumped to conclusions.
19:14I was wrong.
19:23I have been a terrible father.
19:27I blamed Alina
19:28for Rosalyn being gone.
19:30I took that pain
19:32out of my own daughter.
19:33And I never should have
19:34brought Evelyn into our home
19:36when Alina needed me most.
19:38So,
19:39as of today,
19:40I am legally severing ties
19:41with Evelyn.
19:48Dad!
19:50The next day,
19:51Dot Evelyn was kicked out
19:53of my home.
19:54She cried the whole way out,
19:56dragging her suitcase,
19:57still hoping Dad
19:58would change his mind.
20:00He didn't even look at her.
20:04Dad thought Mom and I
20:06would forgive him.
20:07But I was completely done.
20:09And so was Mom.
20:11We packed our bags
20:12and walked right out of the mansion.
20:14All we left behind
20:15were signed divorce papers
20:17on his desk.
20:19Our new place
20:20wasn't like that mansion,
20:22but it felt like
20:23a real, warm home.
20:25Mom decorated
20:26my bedroom perfectly.
20:27Soft blankets,
20:29bright lighting.
20:30When I opened the closet,
20:31it was full of new clothes.
20:33In the latest styles,
20:34I never told her
20:36the dark details
20:36of the last ten years.
20:38And she never asked.
20:40But Mom just knew.
20:42She could see
20:43every invisible spar.
20:45Evelyn and Dad
20:46left on me.
20:47The day we moved in,
20:49she pulled me
20:49into her arms.
20:50Elena,
20:51I will never let
20:52anyone hurt you again.
20:54I rested my head
20:55on her shoulder.
20:56For the first time
20:57in my life,
20:58I felt safe.
20:59I know, Mom.
21:03Evelyn's friends
21:03at school bullied her.
21:04Give the girl an Oscar!
21:06Faking it as a billionaire
21:07heiress for ten years?
21:08You stole her mom's necklace!
21:09You literally hijacked
21:10her entire life!
21:11I want my Cartier bracelet back.
21:13It was twenty grand.
21:14She probably pawned it.
21:16How else is a broke
21:16orphan paying tuition?
21:19Didn't you claim
21:20Sebastian was paying
21:21for Elena's charity fund?
21:24You are totally sick.
21:31Back off!
21:33You're crossing a line!
21:34She looked desperately
21:35at Brock across the room.
21:37Please!
21:37She wanted him
21:38to play the hero again.
21:39Brock completely
21:40avoided her eyes.
21:41Crossing a line?
21:42That's cute
21:43coming from you.
21:43You treated us
21:44like garbage
21:44for years
21:45based on a lie.
21:46Now you want us
21:46to play nice?
21:47We're mean.
21:48So what?
21:49Then a half-empty
21:50yogurt flew at her.
21:54They all burst out laughing.
22:01I stood by my desk.
22:04I didn't even look
22:05at the mess
22:06in the center
22:06of the room.
22:08I just quietly
22:09packed the last
22:10of my textbooks.
22:11I knew exactly
22:12what these kids
22:13were doing.
22:13They were torturing
22:14Evelyn just to kiss
22:15my ass.
22:16But I didn't care anymore.
22:21She had already
22:22signed my transfer papers.
22:24She was waiting
22:24for me outside.
22:26No goodbye.
22:27No glance back.
22:30I walked out
22:30of the classroom.
22:32The divorce
22:33dragged on for months.
22:35Dad fought it
22:35tooth and nail.
22:36He begged for
22:37Mom's forgiveness
22:38every single day.
22:40And when none
22:41of it worked,
22:42he even hurt himself
22:43just to make her stay.
22:47I thought about it
22:47for a long time.
22:49Finally,
22:49I told Mom
22:49to drop the divorce.
22:50The last ten years
22:51were between me and him.
22:52You two still love each other.
22:53I'll be leaving
22:54for college soon anyway.
22:56I knew she still loved him.
22:57When she first came back,
22:58she said he was
22:59half her world.
23:00I couldn't stand
23:00seeing her so miserable.
23:04Elena,
23:05you never used
23:05to be like this.
23:07You used to be
23:08so loud,
23:09so demanding.
23:10You owned the room.
23:12If you didn't get your way,
23:13you threw a fit.
23:14Now you just walk
23:15on eggshells.
23:16You shrink yourself
23:18just to keep the peace.
23:19What did he do to you?
23:23What did he turn
23:23my daughter into?
23:29How could I ever
23:30forgive him for that?
23:34On your birthday,
23:36were you really
23:36just diving
23:37for that necklace?
23:38Or did you want
23:39to stay under?
23:40If I hadn't come back
23:41in time,
23:42when I saw the dead
23:43look in your eyes
23:44at the hospital,
23:45it terrified me.
23:46Outside the door,
23:48a shadow paused.
23:49It was dad.
23:51Then he quietly
23:53walked away.
23:55New school,
23:56new life.
23:58Classmates were
23:59nice to me.
23:59No plastics,
24:01no toxic gossip.
24:03I actually made
24:04real friends.
24:05They saw my family's
24:06viral drama
24:07all over TikTok.
24:09They knew exactly
24:10who I was,
24:10but they totally
24:12respected my boundaries.
24:14They never pushed
24:15for the traumatizing
24:16details.
24:17It used to be
24:18dead average.
24:19When I spent
24:2010 years terrified
24:21in my own house,
24:22grades didn't matter.
24:24Mom didn't care
24:25about my GPA.
24:26She just wanted me
24:27to finally breathe.
24:29But I wanted
24:30to get to Harvard.
24:33That's when she
24:34went all in.
24:35So,
24:36Mom pulled some
24:37strings and hired
24:38elite private tutors.
24:39I worked hard
24:40every single night
24:41by finals.
24:41I pulled straight A's.
24:44Mom was over the moon.
24:47She cooked
24:48my favorite dishes.
24:49She bought
24:50a big cake.
24:53She snapped
24:54a picture of my
24:55report card
24:55for Instagram.
24:58Second later,
24:59a notification
25:00popped up.
25:01My dad's
25:02official corporate
25:03account liked
25:03the post.
25:07The college
25:09decisions dropped.
25:11I stared at the
25:12laptop screen
25:13and broke down.
25:14I got accepted
25:15into my dream
25:16university.
25:17Two years ago,
25:18I was the girl
25:19everyone ignored.
25:21I was a bullied
25:22outcast,
25:23rotting in a literal
25:24maid's room.
25:25No idea what
25:26tomorrow looked like.
25:28Now,
25:29I had a real home.
25:31A mom who loved me,
25:32and I actually had a future.
25:36mom posted my acceptance
25:38letter online.
25:40Her millions of followers
25:41flooded the comments
25:42with love.
25:46But the very next morning,
25:48it was the police.
25:51Sebastian Sterling
25:52was dead.
25:53Dad left everything
25:54to me.
25:55Company shares,
25:56property,
25:58cash.
25:58Then he took
25:59his own life.
26:00He left exactly
26:02two letters.
26:03One for mom,
26:04one for me.
26:05I opened mine.
26:07Just two words.
26:10I'm sorry.
26:11The paper was warped,
26:14streaked with blood,
26:15and blurried by tears.
26:16I looked at it
26:17for a long time.
26:19No relief.
26:21No anger.
26:24Maybe,
26:28maybe we were never
26:29meant to be
26:29father and daughter.
26:34Evelyn showed up
26:35at dad's funeral.
26:36Two years had
26:37hollowed her out.
26:38Hair tangled,
26:39unwashed.
26:40Eyes red,
26:41swollen.
26:42Gone was the girl
26:43who played heiress.
26:44Are you happy now,
26:46Elena?
26:46He's dead.
26:47Look at me.
26:48Are you thrilled?
26:49When dad kicked her out,
26:51he gave her
26:51a massive payout.
26:54Enough to cover
26:55a full college ride.
26:57She blew the entire
26:59bag in a month.
27:01I heard rumors
27:02she dropped out
27:03entirely.
27:04Now she danced
27:05for nickels
27:05on Twitch streams.
27:07People constantly
27:08trolled her live feeds
27:09about the scandal.
27:11She just screamed
27:12at the chat for tips.
27:14Yeah, I am.
27:15Honestly,
27:17I hope you hit
27:18rock bottom.
27:19You're a total psycho!
27:22Takes one to know one.
27:24If dad were here,
27:25he'd destroy you
27:26for treating me
27:27like this.
27:28You still think
27:29he was ever
27:30on your side?
27:30He loved me.
27:31He always protected me.
27:32He only kicked me out
27:33because your bitch
27:34mother manipulated him.
27:35If he loved you
27:35so much,
27:37why didn't he leave
27:38you a single dime?
27:39He left everything
27:40to me.
27:41Money,
27:42property,
27:42even the ground
27:43you're standing
27:44on right now.
27:45She went still.
27:45For once,
27:46she had nothing to say.
27:47I walked right past her.
27:49Behind me,
27:50she broke down
27:50sobbing.
27:51I kept going.
27:56Up ahead,
27:57mom was waiting.
27:58I was never
27:59looking back again.
28:01Just moving forward
28:02with mom.
28:03The future
28:04was mine to write.
28:05going to write.
28:05I was never
28:05You
