Transcript
00:00My wife, Emma, told me our three-year-old son had gone missing.
00:05As I was searching frantically for him,
00:09I saw a post from Emma's ex on Instagram.
00:13My blood ran cold when I saw the photo.
00:17Ethan Cole was holding my son,
00:19and my wife was right there beside him like they were a family.
00:23Everyone in the comments was congratulating them.
00:26My comment was the only one out of place.
00:29My son back.
00:33Ten minutes later, the post was gone.
00:41After that, Emma called, already furious.
00:48What is wrong with you?
00:50It's just a child.
00:52We can have another one later.
00:54Ethan is never going to have kids of his own.
00:58Why not give him one?
01:01I could hear Ethan's voice in the background.
01:03He was right there with her as she yelled.
01:07Take some time to think about what you've done.
01:12An hour later, Ethan posted again.
01:15This time, he tagged me.
01:24I had bought it for Emma six months ago.
01:27I knew what Ethan was hinting at.
01:31Well, this time I just won't make it so easy.
01:35Emma didn't come home until after nine that night.
01:38I was packing.
01:40The bedroom was a mess.
01:48You knew.
01:49He just found out he can't have children.
01:51So why would you rub salt in the wound?
01:53Do you have any idea how cruel that was?
02:00I looked at her, my wife.
02:02She cared more about Ethan's feelings
02:05than what I went through when I thought my son was missing.
02:09I didn't answer.
02:10Just kept stuffing my son Liam's clothes into a suitcase.
02:16I thought back to two days ago.
02:18I had just gotten to work.
02:27Babe!
02:27Oh my god, I can't find Liam!
02:29I looked everywhere!
02:31She said he went missing at the mall.
02:33I panicked.
02:34I called everyone who could help.
02:41I drove straight there.
02:42I searched every floor, every parking lot, every exit.
02:46And I was still the one comforting her.
02:49But Emma?
02:50She was probably with Ethan the whole time.
02:53Because Ethan had just gotten the diagnosis that he was infertile.
02:57Emma took it harder than he did.
03:00She wouldn't leave his side.
03:04I kept calling her, trying to find out where Liam had gone.
03:07And she got annoyed.
03:09Like I was interrupting something more important.
03:12Eventually, she blocked my number and blocked me on all social media.
03:22I searched for my son for two straight days.
03:27I was so wrecked.
03:32Then I saw Ethan's post.
03:34He held my son like Liam was his.
03:36His arm was around Emma.
03:38In that photo, they looked like a real family.
03:41For the first time, I wondered what I even was to her.
03:49When she saw me standing there silent, her temper flared again.
03:53Why aren't you saying anything?
03:55Quit standing there like I did something wrong.
03:57I already explained this on the phone.
04:00Ethan can't have children.
04:02Giving Liam to him solves everything.
04:08He can ask for anything.
04:13But Liam is my son.
04:16And you're bringing him back.
04:23Jason, are you serious right now?
04:25Haven't you done enough?
04:27I've told you over and over.
04:29Ethan and I are not having an affair.
04:31We're just trying to help him.
04:33Every time I even spend time with Ethan, you get jealous.
04:36And now he is going through something devastating.
04:39This is not about you.
04:45She said the part Ethan had clearly fed her.
04:48He was right about you.
04:50You're one of those men who need to dominate everything just to satisfy your own ego.
04:54For a second, I couldn't even speak.
04:57The wound I got while out there searching for Liam started to throb.
05:03I was still shaking from the pain when the doorbell rang.
05:11Emma saw I wasn't getting up, so she went to answer it.
05:18Ma'am, we got a report about a missing child.
05:21No, our son has been found.
05:23Sorry for wasting your time.
05:27Then she slammed the door shut.
05:30When she turned back to me, she was furious.
05:33Are you insane?
05:34Why would you call the cops?
05:36This is exactly what you do.
05:37You try to scare me into falling in line.
05:39I didn't say a word.
05:40She was about to keep going, but she noticed how pale I looked.
05:43Oh, please, cut the act.
05:45You practically live at the office, and now you're falling apart after just two days?
05:48Let me guess.
05:49You're trying to act like Ethan.
05:51I looked at her and almost laughed.
05:53Ethan looks fragile, but I'm the one faking it?
05:56I said nothing.
05:58I just wrapped the bandage tighter around my leg and sat there until the pain eased a little.
06:03Then Emma pulled a box of chocolates out of her purse and dropped it on the table.
06:07Here, eat something.
06:08Ethan told me to bring you this.
06:10He said Liam's fine, so you can stop worrying.
06:12Consider it compensation.
06:14We're doing what's best for him.
06:15If you can just accept that, we can still be civil.
06:18And if you miss Liam, you can always go visit him.
06:20I looked at the box on the table.
06:21It had already been opened.
06:22The almond chocolates were melted.
06:24I'm severely allergic to almonds.
06:27Emma used to know that.
06:29But ever since Ethan came back, it was like none of that mattered anymore.
06:34I don't want it.
06:39Enough, Jason.
06:41Don't push me.
06:42If you keep acting like this, you'll never see Liam again.
06:45Don't forget.
06:46I'm his mother.
06:47I gave birth to him.
06:49I had never imagined my wife would one day use our son to threaten me.
06:53I want to see Liam.
06:54He was so little.
06:55What if he was crying for me?
06:57Emma saw she had leverage.
06:59She picked up her phone.
07:00Fine.
07:01But first, you call Ethan and apologize.
07:05You stole my son?
07:07Gave him to your lover?
07:08And now I need to apologize to see my own child?
07:11Your child?
07:13Don't forget I'm the one who gave birth to him.
07:15He's my kid too.
07:16And if I want someone else to raise him, that's my choice.
07:24If you won't apologize over the phone, you go say it to his face.
07:30Then she grabbed my hair and tried to drag me toward the door.
07:34The pain in my leg made me think of Liam.
07:37He was such a good kid.
07:39He had to be scared.
07:41Ever since Emma picked Ethan up from the airport, she'd changed.
07:45She stopped caring.
07:49About a week ago, she suddenly came home early and cooked dinner.
07:52She apologized for neglecting me and our son because of work.
07:56Liam was so happy that night.
07:58He was too young to know that no job makes a mother disappear for three months.
08:02It was a terrible excuse.
08:04But I chose to believe her.
08:07One call from Ethan and she abandoned our son.
08:11That's when everything made sense.
08:13Now I finally understood.
08:14All the things she chose to ignore were because of another man.
08:20The blood dripping onto the floor finally caught Emma's attention.
08:24You're actually hurt?
08:25I laughed.
08:26When we first got married, she used to notice everything about me.
08:29If I lost a couple pounds, she would be home early to make me a big meal.
08:33If I got a small paper cut, she insisted on doing all the chores.
08:36Now I was bleeding through bandages.
08:38And she hadn't even noticed.
08:43Fine.
08:44If you're hurt, we're going to the hospital.
08:47I didn't argue.
08:48I let her pull me to the car.
08:54When I got in, I realized even her car had changed.
08:57Their photo was taped to the rearview mirror.
09:00Emma and Ethan.
09:01Then, when she saw where I was looking, she stiffened.
09:04Don't get the wrong idea.
09:05It was just a random picture.
09:07He thought it was funny and stuck in there.
09:08If you want, I can take it down.
09:11It's fine.
09:13Just drive.
09:20I knew exactly what Ethan was doing.
09:22He was marking his territory.
09:25The old me would have taken the bait.
09:36Now, I didn't care.
09:41We had only been on the road a few minutes when Ethan called.
09:45I could hear him panicking.
09:50Napster, not Ian do want to sell to your crying.
09:54What happened to Liam?
09:55Why is he crying?
09:56She didn't answer me.
09:57She just pulled over, unlocked the door, and shoved me out of the car.
10:01Ethan is not in a good place right now.
10:03I'm going to see him.
10:04You can get to the hospital yourself.
10:06And then she drove off.
10:09Then the car disappeared into traffic.
10:14My wound split open again when I hit a fire hydrant.
10:22By the time a stranger got me to the hospital, I was covered in blood.
10:27When I got home from the hospital, Emma confronted me, furious.
10:31Who is she?
10:33The woman pushing my wheelchair was a college classmate.
10:36She was on shift at the hospital and offered to bring me home.
10:39Seriously?
10:40Since when have you known some random woman from college?
10:43Funny.
10:43I didn't know your business trips were really flights to France to see Ethan.
10:47I almost laughed.
10:49That shut her up for a minute.
10:52Jason, are you still mad about last night?
10:54I was worried about Ethan.
10:55He just got back, and he's not doing well.
10:58I was going to pick you up, but I thought maybe you'd already gone home.
11:00And you weren't answering my calls.
11:02And after I was this worried about you, you come home with another woman?
11:05Bye.
11:05My classmate clearly caught the vibe.
11:07She said goodbye and left.
11:09I watched her walk away, then turned my wheelchair toward the bedroom.
11:13Behind me, Emma called out.
11:14Jason, are you seriously not going to explain yourself?
11:17Explain what?
11:19You left me on the street to go see him.
11:22If you really cared, you would have gone to the hospital.
11:25Then no one else would have had to bring me home.
11:29I opened the bedroom door.
11:31At that point, I only wanted two things.
11:36To get Liam back.
11:37And to end this marriage.
11:42The next morning, Emma left early.
11:45I packed everything that belonged to me and Liam and moved out.
11:49My lawyer moved fast.
11:51The divorce papers were ready that same day.
11:53But he told me not to serve her yet.
11:56Not while she still had my son.
11:58When Emma got home and saw half the house emptied out,
12:01she assumed I was still angry about what happened with Liam.
12:06She called me over and over.
12:12I ignored every call.
12:17She started flooding her social media with photos of Liam and Ethan.
12:21She still thought this was a game.
12:28She had no idea what I were to do next.
12:34Two months later, I saw Emma and Ethan again.
12:40They showed up at a charity gala in Hartwield, hand in hand.
12:45I was there too.
12:47My company had sponsored part of the event.
12:49Before the auction even started,
12:51Emma stayed wrapped around Ethan like she belonged on his arm,
12:54showing him off in front of everyone.
12:56And even while she was playing the perfect date, she kept glancing at me.
13:00Ethan noticed.
13:01There was malice in his eyes.
13:04The charity auction is about to begin.
13:07I'd like to add one more item.
13:09For a good cause.
13:11Then he pulled a ring from his pocket.
13:14My mother's ring.
13:16I froze.
13:17That ring was my family heirloom.
13:20My mother had protected her whole life.
13:23Before she died, she placed it in Emma's hands.
13:26She wanted it passed down through the family.
13:29Emma had promised her that she would treasure it.
13:32And now, she had handed it to Ethan.
13:35And he was putting it up for auction.
13:37I barely made it through the rest of the night.
13:39By the time the event ended, I just wanted to leave.
13:43Jason, how long are you going to keep this up?
13:45I've been more than patient with you.
13:47I looked at her.
13:48I used to know that face by heart.
13:50Now, I barely recognized her.
13:52Jason, are you and Emma fighting because of me?
13:54Emma and I are just friends.
13:55She's only nice to me out of pity.
13:56There is seriously something wrong with you.
13:59Ethan has done nothing wrong.
14:01Everything I did, I stand by.
14:03I did it because I wanted to.
14:04He sounded hurt.
14:05She said it so easily.
14:07Then headlights cut across the lot.
14:09A black sedan was coming fast.
14:13Before I could react, someone shoved me.
14:22The last thing I saw before everything went black
14:24was her raised hand as she leaned into Ethan.
14:49When I woke up, I was already in the hospital.
14:58Voices were coming from outside my room.
15:01Emma's was the easiest to recognize.
15:04What do you mean I can't go in?
15:05He's my husband.
15:07You're awake.
15:09Don't tell me you're still sorry for her.
15:11That woman nearly killed you.
15:13Then she glanced at the door and scoffed.
15:20Babe, you're awake.
15:22Are you still in pain?
15:23Oh, now you care?
15:25Funny.
15:25You didn't look this concerned when you shoved him toward a moving car.
15:29Emma froze.
15:30Do you even understand how bad this is?
15:32His leg was already injured.
15:33Now it's worse because of you.
15:35I didn't mean to.
15:37I didn't know he was hurt that badly.
15:38Of course.
15:39You were too busy with another man to notice.
15:41I can't believe you had the nerve to show up here.
15:43Emma looked like she wanted to defend herself, but the words wouldn't come.
15:47I just thought...
15:48You thought what?
15:49That getting hit by a car wasn't a big deal?
15:51If it's so harmless, why don't you try it yourself?
15:53Emma didn't say a word.
15:55She just held onto my hand tighter.
15:57Jason, I know this is my fault.
16:00I'll do better.
16:02Just forgive me this once, okay?
16:05No.
16:06There's no fixing this.
16:09And I want a divorce.
16:13She saw I meant it.
16:15She looked like she wanted to say more.
16:19Then her phone rang.
16:21She stepped out, took the call.
16:24And came back with that fake soft look.
16:27Jason, I know you're upset.
16:29I'm going home to make you some soup.
16:31I'll come back tomorrow after you've had time to calm down.
16:34I almost laughed.
16:38She rushed out.
16:41Did she really think like I wouldn't know who she was running to?
16:45Ethan had texted me minutes earlier.
16:49I didn't even react.
16:55People are strange.
16:58Now that I'm done, she suddenly wants to act loyal.
17:09While I was in the hospital, Emma showed up every day.
17:13But at that point, I only said two things to her.
17:17I want a divorce.
17:19And I want my son back.
17:22She refused to answer.
17:24The longer she stayed, the more desperate Ethan got.
17:28I could tell by the marks on her neck.
17:31He was trying to claim her.
17:36Jason, I bought back your mom's ring.
17:39I ran my thumb over the gift box and almost laughed.
17:43Do you want me to thank you for returning my own family heirloom?
17:47No.
17:48I know you're still angry.
17:49I just wanted to help Ethan.
17:51That's all.
17:52You missed Liam, right?
17:53I brought you something.
17:55I took it and opened it without saying a word.
17:58They had taken him everywhere.
18:02Anyone else might have thought he looked happy.
18:04But I knew my son.
18:06He wasn't.
18:07His eyes were dull.
18:09Jason, I know you love kids.
18:13We can have another baby.
18:15I'm willing to have more children with you.
18:17Ethan and I made this album together.
18:19We need you to see it, Lee and her family.
18:21We wanted you to see that Liam's doing well with him.
18:25It was a photo of the three of them together.
18:27Ethan was grinning.
18:28Emma was holding Liam and kissing his cheek.
18:30And underneath the picture, written across the bottom, were the words,
18:32Our first family trip.
18:34Here's to many more.
18:37Since when did my son become part of your little family?
18:39No, no, that was from a day trip with Liam.
18:40It must have gotten in there by accident.
18:46Get out.
18:52And don't come back.
18:56On the day I was discharged, Emma still showed up.
19:02I stood there, looking at that eager smile on her face.
19:06Babe, I already talked to the doctor.
19:09You need rest at home.
19:10Let me take care of you.
19:12I already brought Liam home.
19:14He misses you.
19:15Don't you want to see your son?
19:26I got in the car and sat down.
19:29Then I noticed it.
19:30All of Ethan's stuff was still there.
19:32She followed my eyes immediately.
19:37I know you hate these.
19:39In a couple of days we can take new pictures with Liam and put ours up instead.
19:42I'll replace everything, whatever you like.
19:45No need.
19:45It's fine.
19:46You don't need to waste your energy on any of this.
19:49Just sign the divorce papers, then go be with Ethan.
19:52You won't ever have to worry about me standing in the way again.
19:57When we got home, she was trying to take care of everything.
20:01Then I heard little footsteps.
20:03Daddy!
20:04Daddy, where did you go?
20:06I missed you so much.
20:08Hey, buddy.
20:09Have you been okay?
20:11Daddy missed you too.
20:12I knew I had failed him.
20:13He was still so little.
20:15And I hadn't been there to protect him.
20:17Emma saw me soften around Liam.
20:19She thought I was softening toward her too.
20:21She came over and wrapped her arms around both of us.
20:24Babe, I swear Liam's been okay.
20:27Ethan really likes him too.
20:28Tell daddy, sweetheart.
20:29You had fun these past few weeks, right?
20:31I shifted Liam in my arms and pulled away from her hand.
20:34My face stayed cold.
20:35She opened her mouth, about to explain again, but her phone rang.
20:38We both knew who it was.
20:40She glanced at the screen, then walked out to the balcony to answer.
20:44I could hear pieces of it through the wind.
20:47Jason was in a car accident.
20:49I'm his wife.
20:50Of course I had to take care of him.
20:51Liam is Jason's son too.
20:53If he says no, what am I supposed to do?
20:55No, that's not what I meant.
20:57I'm coming now.
20:58She hung up and walked back in.
21:04Babe, something just came up at work.
21:06I have to go in.
21:07I didn't even look at her.
21:08I just sat on the floor and played with Liam.
21:11Liam.
21:22This time Emma disappeared for three straight days.
21:25Ethan really knew how to keep her hooked.
21:29While she was gone, a college friend, Vudshund, helped me move into an apartment.
21:33A few days later, when I was dropping Liam off at preschool, Emma stopped me outside.
21:38Jason, I know I let you down.
21:39I know that's why you moved out with Liam.
21:41But I swear, I didn't do it on purpose.
21:45Ethan got depressed.
21:46His therapist said he shouldn't be left alone right now.
21:48But nothing happened between us.
21:50Nothing!
21:51You don't need to explain anything to me.
21:53Just sign them.
21:55Once we're divorced, you'll be free.
21:59She was crying, and her whole body was shaking.
22:02You can keep the house.
22:03I don't want any of it.
22:05I just want Liam.
22:06She kept shaking her head.
22:07Tears everywhere.
22:08Jason, please.
22:09Please don't do this.
22:10I'm not divorcing you.
22:11I love you.
22:12I swear there's nothing going on between me and Ethan.
22:14And if it really bothers you that much, I won't see him again.
22:16We can still be a family.
22:17Liam is still so little.
22:18Can you really do this to him?
22:19Can you really let him grow up without a mother?
22:21That actually made me laugh.
22:23Emma, I gave you so many chances.
22:24I was still giving you a chance last week.
22:26And what did you do with them?
22:27You lied to me.
22:28Every time you said you were going to work, I already knew who you were really going to see.
22:31In this marriage, I was never the one who was unfaithful.
22:33If you still refuse to sign, I'll file and settle it in court.
22:36Then I turned and walked away.
22:44After helping me move, Sophie grew really attached to Liam.
22:49You're really going through with the divorce?
22:52Back in college, I heard about your love story.
22:54Everyone was jealous.
22:58Emma and I got together our junior year.
23:02After graduation, we got married.
23:04We didn't have much money.
23:06I couldn't give her a huge wedding.
23:08I couldn't afford a real diamond ring.
23:10Even her dress was rented.
23:12When we first got married, I used to hate myself for not being able to give her more.
23:17And every time, she would tell me the same thing.
23:20Having me was enough and that she didn't care about flashy things.
23:24When I think about it now, I do believe she loved me once.
23:27Even so, I made myself a promise.
23:30One day, I'd buy her the best ring I could.
23:33And eventually, I did.
23:35But in the end, that ring became just another symbol of her life with Ethan.
23:42This wasn't the first time she had chosen him over me.
23:46There had been plenty before.
23:48We used to fight about him all the time.
23:51And every time, she defended him.
23:53Can you not be so petty?
23:55We've known each other for years.
23:56We're just friends.
23:58We're married.
23:59Do I really have to explain this to you every time?
24:01Those words used to hurt.
24:04But not anymore.
24:07I looked over at Liam, still laughing on the rug.
24:11Yeah, I'm done.
24:13Now I have Liam.
24:14That's enough for me.
24:15All I want is a simple life with my son.
24:20I thought that was the end of me and Emma.
24:24Turns out, she had one more nasty surprise waiting for me.
24:28Sunday morning, I opened my apartment door.
24:31Emma stood there in a white wedding dress.
24:33A phone set up on a tripod behind her, holding the ring I had used to propose to her.
24:39Jason, I know everything that happened was my fault.
24:41I know I hurt you and I know I hurt Liam.
24:43I'll accept whatever punishment you think I deserve.
24:46But I love you.
24:46I really do.
24:47I can't lose you.
24:49Three years ago, you proposed to me at school.
24:51I didn't cherish the marriage we had.
24:52So this time, let me do it.
24:53Let me ask you now.
24:54Give me one more chance.
24:56Let me take care of Liam with you.
24:57She looked beautiful.
24:59Everything was set up perfectly.
25:01All that was left was for me to play my part and say yes.
25:05This is an apartment building.
25:06Stop causing a scene.
25:08And we're getting divorced.
25:09Sign the papers.
25:10Or I'll have my lawyer handle it in court.
25:20What I didn't expect was for that live stream to blow up overnight.
25:23Within hours, it was everywhere.
25:24The comments were a mess.
25:25Some people defended me.
25:26Some people mocked the whole thing.
25:28Most of it, I didn't care about.
25:29Then someone online dug up what had happened between Emma and me.
25:31After that, public opinion flipped hard.
25:33The backlash got worse by the day.
25:35I never responded.
26:05Move forward with the divorce.
26:07Jason, do you really hate me that much?
26:10I know I was wrong.
26:11I wanted to make it right.
26:13Why couldn't you just give me one more chance?
26:16I didn't even look at her.
26:18Maybe I do keep score.
26:21But I will never stay with a woman who could betray me.
26:25And I would never let my son grow up depending on a mother who could throw him away.
26:34After that, Emma disappeared from my life.
26:38And I didn't care enough to ask where she went.
26:40She didn't matter anymore.
26:43These days, my life is full.
26:53And for the first time in a long time, that's enough.
