00:07:49mr carter takes off his hat and humbly begs the villagers to each chip in a little food to raise
00:07:55me together
00:07:56but those neighbors who once received favors from my dad
00:08:01all make excuses about having no extra food
00:08:05they even suggest sending me to the workhouse in the city
00:08:08in that moment i feel like a dirty rag tossed away by the world
00:08:13with red eyes mr carter drags me toward his carriage
00:08:17i kick frantically digging my nails deep into the dirt
00:08:21my face covered in blood and tears
00:08:23i don't want to go to the workhouse i want to wait for dad right here

00:08:45ignoring everything else
00:08:47and holds me tight in her warm embrace
00:08:55i hide in miss martha's warm arms like a drowning cat
00:08:59even though mr carter sighs and says the workhouse will feed me
00:09:03i still grip miss martha's clothes tightly
00:09:07she's the last bit of light i can hold on to

00:10:01mrs hanson shows up with a dark scowl

00:12:23five pounds of flour just for me

00:12:27fine

00:12:30ada actually agreed
00:12:32we're writing a contract to cut all ties right here

00:12:40we go our separate ways
00:12:43fine by me
00:12:44who wants this jinx anyway
00:12:46thomas go write up the contract
00:12:51just as aunt grace smugly carries the flour inside
00:12:55she trips over nothing
00:12:58the flour she traded me for is completely blown away by the wind
00:13:02we've done
00:13:26see that?
00:13:27God is watching!
00:13:30Leonie, let's go home!
00:13:32For the first time, the cramped cabin feels warm from the fire.
00:13:36Mrs. Hanson curses the whole time,
00:13:39calling the thick wool blanket Miss Martha spent three months knitting
00:13:42a piece of junk, but she tossed it right into my arms.
00:13:46This junk is stiff and stinky!
00:13:48Hurry up and make a bed for this unlucky brat, and don't get my floor dirty!
00:13:54Grandma Ada calls that beautiful wool blanket, junk.
00:13:58But she has sick Mr. Arthur tuck me in with it.
00:14:01In this moment, I finally have a home.
00:14:05Thank you, Grandma.
00:14:07Thank you, Mom.
00:14:10Thank you, Mr. Arthur.
00:14:13Mr. Arthur tells me to call him Dad.
00:14:16He says until my real Dad comes back, he'll protect me with his life.
00:14:20I'm finally not an unwanted kid anymore.
00:14:28Good Lord!
00:14:30How could that wicked woman do this?
00:14:33Martha, go sell my wool coat.
00:14:36Use the money to build up her strength.
00:14:38To buy me meat.
00:14:40Dad even wants to sell his winter coat.
00:14:42Grandma slams the table and stops him,
00:14:44because without it, Dad won't survive the winter.
00:14:47Mom cries and says the doctor told them a natural hot spring could turn Dad's health around.
00:14:53But in Oak Haven, where it hasn't rained in three years, that's impossible.
00:14:57Don't be scared, Dad. I'll pray to the angels.
00:15:00You're going to get better.
00:15:03I pray to the angels with all my heart.
00:15:07I'd give up ten years of my life for Dad's health.
00:15:10I run to the back hill, wanting to do more chores for the family.
00:15:14With a loud pop, I easily pull a deep-rooted stump right out of the ground.
00:15:20Then, a blast of hot, wet steam shoots into the sky like a giant dragon.
00:15:27Grandma! Mom! Come out quick! I broke the ground!
00:15:33Hearing my scream, Grandma Ad rushes over first.
00:15:37I think I broke the earth and caused a huge disaster.
00:15:41But when she touches the boiling water with trembling hands,
00:15:45she laughs and cries like a kid.
00:15:48It's hot! The water is hot! It's a natural hot spring!
00:16:08My face burns like it's on fire. But I don't cry.
00:16:13Grandma Ada told me if I'm bullied and oppressed, I have to fight back.
00:16:18Leone, you are a child of this house.
00:16:21When you get bullied, you fight back.
00:16:24Grandma helps me raise my hand and aim at Aunt Grace, who's waiting for a laugh.
00:16:29The stone hits her shoulder dead on.
00:16:32Ouch! My shoulder's hurt! Help!
00:16:34I watch Aunt Grace run away.
00:16:36She used to seem like a giant fence to me.
00:16:39But now, she looks like a panicked gray rat scurrying around.
00:16:44Grandma Ada is like a massive tree shielding me from the storm.
00:16:48She publicly announces she's cutting ties with Miss Ella.
00:16:52Leone is my chosen granddaughter! She's no jinx!
00:16:54Mother! Your real grandson is right here!
00:16:57Arthur is a cripple, and Martha can't have kids!
00:17:00If you insist on keeping this jinx, we're cutting ties.
00:17:03Fine, I agree!
00:17:04Mom and Dad pull Grandma's sleeves, begging her not to act rashly.
00:17:09But she firmly refuses.
00:17:12As long as this toxic woman, Ella, is around, our family will never have a normal life!
00:17:19I'm kicking this wicked woman out today!
00:17:22Cutting ties is no big deal.
00:17:25But get the best house and the biggest part of the farm!
00:17:28Done!
00:17:30You can have it!
00:17:32Just get out of my sight!
00:17:35Ella?
00:17:36Don't hesitate!
00:17:38Cut ties with them!
00:17:40And your husband's money will be all yours!
00:17:43Do you want Leonise to bring bad luck to you and your baby?
00:17:48Don't forget!
00:17:49Her unlucky dad just died in the war!
00:17:53My dad isn't dead!
00:17:55He's coming back!
00:17:56He'll come back and make you pay!
00:17:59Stop dreaming!
00:18:00He was blown to ashes long ago!
00:18:03You won't even find his bones!
00:18:05Leonise bad luck will drag the whole town down!
00:18:09Just watch!
00:18:10Soon you won't even have mud to eat!
00:18:13I'm not a jinx!
00:18:14Grandma Ada says I brought good luck!
00:18:18You're a bad person!
00:18:20Get out of my house!
00:18:25Aunt Grace's laughter suddenly stops as the roar of an engine,
00:18:30where the steel monster shatters the silence of the wasteland
00:18:34and traces baffles and dust.
00:18:37The car door opens and a tall man covered in metal steps out.
00:18:41I don't even need to see his face!
00:18:43The pounding in my blood give, gives me the answer.
00:18:47Dad!
00:18:47Dad!
00:19:01A hot spring!
00:19:03It's a real hot spring!
00:19:06Arthur!
00:19:07My son!
00:19:09The doctor said a hot spring could save your lungs!
00:19:12You're saved!
00:19:13Mom hugs me tight and kisses my face in excitement.
00:19:17She says I'm an angel sent by God.
00:19:20It turns out I'm not unwanted trash.
00:19:22I can be someone's salvation too.
00:19:26But when I happily return to the yard,
00:19:28I'm greeted by two icy faces.
00:19:32Miss Ella and Aunt Grace are whispering together.
00:19:35Their glares pierce my heart like poisoned swords.
00:19:39What rotten luck!
00:19:40We're already too poor to eat and now we have to share food with her.
00:19:43Ella.
00:19:44I'm telling you.
00:19:46Stay away from them.
00:19:47That Leonae brings nothing but bad luck.
00:19:55But remembering Bad spent all his money on medicine.
00:19:59I can't bear to see this family tear itself apart over me.
00:20:03Miss Ella, please don't be mad.
00:20:05I won't fight for anything.
00:20:08I'll help take care of the baby.
00:20:10And I won't eat the good food.
00:20:14Liar!
00:20:14Are you gonna let her pass her bad luck to your son?
00:20:17Her curse will kill your son!
00:20:21Pete!
00:20:28Get lost!
00:20:29Don't touch me with your dirty hands!
00:20:41Aunt Grace screams that I'm a monster who kills families.
00:20:45Pushing Miss Ella to attack me.
00:20:47Just as I try to beg again,
00:20:50Ella winds up and slaps me hard across the face.
00:20:57Aunt Grace is still lying.
00:20:59She points at my bloody wounds and lies with a straight face that I fell while playing.
00:21:03But I see the neighbors shaking their heads.
00:21:05They all know it's not true.
00:21:08Bullshit!
00:21:09I saw you buy new leather boots in the city with the military pay
00:21:12while you made this poor kid gnaw on spoiled potato peels in the snow!
00:21:15Yeah!
00:21:16She even locked the kid in the barn to beat her!
00:21:18We all heard the screams!
00:21:20The Major's face is as dark as a stormy sky.
00:21:23He waves his white-gloved hand and orders their arrest.
00:21:26Uncle Thomas is taken away,
00:21:28but Aunt Grace avoids arrest because she has a baby to take care of.
00:21:34Watching the Jeep drive away,
00:21:35I don't feel the thrill of revenge.
00:21:38I just think that maybe justice really does come to this desolate look.
00:21:44I thought with $5,000 my new home would be safe.
00:21:48I never expected trouble to come so fast.
00:21:51Miss Ella bursts through the door and her stare at that pile of cash is even scarier than Aunt Grace's.
00:21:58I'm carrying the only heir to this family.
00:22:01We should get half of that $5,000.
00:22:03James keeps his head down.
00:22:06For money, he doesn't even dare look at his sick brother.
00:22:10They aren't trying to steal money.
00:22:12They're trying to steal my last memory of my dad.
00:22:15Nobody is touching this money, including you!
00:22:19From now on, we live our own lives!
00:22:21Get out of my house!
00:22:23For me, Grandma kicks her own son out of the house.
00:22:27She rubs my head and says,
00:22:30as long as she's here,
00:22:32no one will touch a single hair on my head.
00:22:40The majestic maid decorated with medals gives me a solemn salute.
00:22:45I thought God heard my prayers and brought Dad back.
00:22:49But that cold, purple heart tells me
00:22:53I'll never feel his hug again.
00:23:01Captain Leo protected our country with his life.
00:23:03This honor belongs to him,
00:23:05and to his only daughter, Leonie.
00:23:08The Major pulls out a thick paper bag.
00:23:11Inside is $5,000 from my Dad's military pension.
00:23:15I don't know how much that is,
00:23:17but I hear the adults saying
00:23:19it could buy a mountain of bread covered in sugar and jam.
00:23:24Aunt Grace and Uncle Thomas pop out of nowhere.
00:23:27One second they want to throw me into the wild,
00:23:29and the next they put on fake smiles and try to drag me home.
00:23:33Uncle Thomas grips my arm like an iron vis.
00:23:36I know he doesn't want me.
00:23:37He wants that blood money.
00:23:41Grandma Ada acts like a lioness protecting her cub,
00:23:44and rips up my sleeve.
00:23:46Those rotting frostbites and bruises look so layering in the sunlight.
00:23:50Look, sir!
00:23:51Living with these two heartless scumbags,
00:23:53Leonie starves, freezes, and gets beaten every single day!
00:23:56It's absolutely heartbreaking!
00:24:04You!
00:24:07How dare you treat a hero's only daughter like an animal!
00:24:12Mom is finally smiling.
00:24:15When she smiles,
00:24:17the wrinkles around her eyes look like pretty flowers.
00:24:20If good luck is real,
00:24:22I want to give it all to the people who treat me well.
00:24:28But this is just the beginning.
00:24:30I actually dig up some lumpy white roots from the dirt
00:24:34that smell amazing.
00:24:36Mom says they're wild mushrooms.
00:24:39They smell so good.
00:24:41I don't know what they are,
00:24:43but Mom says we can sell them for money,
00:24:45so they must be good.
00:24:48Golden grease bubbles in the pan.
00:24:51The white mushrooms Mom sliced.
00:24:55Release an incredible mind-blowing smell in the heat.
00:24:59Even bed-rown Papa Arthur can't help but sit up.
00:25:08You're clearly an angel bringing good luck,
00:25:11yet they call you a witch-bringing disaster.
00:25:13What a bunch of blind idiots.
00:25:15But the smell brings trouble, too.
00:25:19Miss Ella bursts in,
00:25:20drooling so much it almost drips into our pot.
00:25:23She points to the air in her belly
00:25:26and demands the biggest bowl of meat.
00:25:30This time, Grandma Ada doesn't even look back.
00:25:34The heavy, bloody meat-crawber in her hand
00:25:37just flies across the room.
00:25:39With Grandma here, no one can bowl us.
00:25:41Take one more step into my yard
00:25:43and I'll chop your feet off.
00:25:44Get lost!
00:25:49Grandma Ada locks the money in an iron box under the bed.
00:25:53She tells me that money could buy lots of pretty clothes and candy.
00:25:58But my Dad traded his life for it,
00:26:01so we can't waste a single penny.
00:26:05Dad's gut-ranking coughs come from the back room.
00:26:10He begs Mom from his sick bed
00:26:12to stop worrying about him
00:26:14and to save the last bite of food for me.
00:26:33The cracked earth in the Blackwood Forest looks like countless mouths laughing at our poverty.
00:26:39Starving people have stripped away every chewable piece of tree bark in this hell hole.
00:26:43Mom leans on her stick,
00:26:46wandering the wasteland in despair.
00:26:48Just as Mom is about to collapse,
00:26:51I trip hard over a tree root.
00:26:54In the flying dust,
00:26:59I actually find a few heavy, dirty, weird-looking stones.
00:27:07Mom says they're useless rocks and tells me to throw them away.
00:27:12But right as she reaches out,
00:27:14something weird happens again.
00:27:19The festwick dies on the spot
00:27:21and rolls right to Mom's feet.
00:27:25Aunt Grace called me a jinx.
00:27:27But now,
00:27:29God himself has delivered dinner to me.
00:27:41This is the first time I've ever had a full stomach.
00:27:44I don't have to shiver in a freezing haystack,
00:27:47and no one is pulling my hair.
00:27:49I eat the delicious chicken,
00:27:52and the air smells like pure happiness.
00:28:11Papa Arthur says his lungs feel warm and he can finally breathe easier.
00:28:17Mom says those white mushrooms we found will definitely sell for a good price.
00:28:23If we can buy medicine,
00:28:25Papa will be saved.
00:28:28The blowing yellow sand can't hide how run down the market is.
00:28:32Mom and I huddle in a corner,
00:28:34carefully laying out those lumpy white roots.
00:28:37I don't know it yet,
00:28:38but these wild mushrooms are called white gold on the tables of rich city folks.
00:28:43And then she started begging her cousin Mark.
00:28:47She kept pulling on his sleeve and crying.
00:28:51I'm sorry.
00:28:52She wanted Mark uncle to get Thomas out of jail.
00:29:02Mark is impatiently trying to push her away.
00:29:05Then he notices us in the corner.
00:29:10Aunt Grace blames me for all her tragedies.
00:29:17Leone!
00:29:18You're the reason my life is ruined!
00:29:24Aunt Grace's face is uglier than dead bark in the Blackwood forest.
00:29:30For the $5,000 she brought her bully cousin Mark,
00:29:33who works at the town hall.
00:29:36They stare at Mom and me like starving wolves.
00:29:42Mom and I guard our stall.
00:29:44It's our only hope to buy Papa's medicine.
00:29:52But Mark comes right up and kicks our basket over.
00:29:57Mark yells like crazy in the market, framing us for selling deadly poisonous mushrooms.
00:30:02Right in front of everyone, he crushes the white mushrooms we worked so hard to find,
00:30:07just like stepping on trash.
00:30:09Mark grabs the gray stones I found, calling us money hungry scammers.
00:30:13With a loud bang, he smashes the rocks onto the ground.
00:30:17The sound of them breaking is the sound of my heart breaking.
00:30:21The crowd believes Mark.
00:30:23They point at us, calling us shameless.
00:30:26Their insults almost drown Mom and me.
00:30:29We're not scamming anyone.
00:30:32These really aren't poisonous mushrooms.
00:30:34That's not true.
00:30:36We're not lying.
00:30:40Mark doesn't care about poisonous mushrooms at all.
00:30:43He just wants the $5,000 Papa left us.
00:30:47He threatens Mom like a snake, saying if we don't pay protection money,
00:30:52he'll make us disappear from Oak Haven for good.
00:30:55To protect my life-saving money, Mom firmly rejects this hungry wolf.
00:31:00But it brings devastating revenge.
00:31:02Mark goes crazy.
00:31:05He flips our stall and crushes the white mushrooms that could save Papa Arthur into mud.
00:31:10I scream and pray for God to punish these bad people.
00:31:14But all I get is Aunt Grace's piercing cacker!
00:31:17You bad people!
00:31:19God is watching!
00:31:20He will definitely punish you!
00:31:23She points at my nose, calling me a naive little idiot,
00:31:28saying even Jesus couldn't save us now.
00:31:30Stop.
00:31:35I follow everyone's gaze and see two men walking in from the crowd.
00:31:40They dress completely differently from the townsfolk, and they look incredibly distinguished.
00:31:52What the hell are you blind idiots doing?!
00:31:57The old man with glasses kneels in the mud, holding the crushed pieces.
00:32:01His hands are shaking worse than dead leaves in autumn.
00:32:05I can feel how angry and heartbroken he is.
00:32:07At the time, I still didn't know just how precious those crushed white mushrooms were.
00:32:16You fool!
00:32:18These are top-grade white struffles that even the royal family pays a fortune to find!
00:32:23And you crush them?!
00:32:24Mark's face instantly drained of color, too terrified to speak.
00:32:29Meanwhile, Mr. Sterling, with his leopard cane, slowly walks toward the grey stones Aunt Grace smashed.
00:32:37In that moment, I think the sun fell into the stone.
00:32:40Beneath the dull grey surface, a dreamy, deep purple light shines out.
00:32:45Mr. Sterling says it's an extremely rare natural amethyst geob.
00:32:50Mr. Sterling goes crazy.
00:32:52He pulls out a thick stack of hundred dollar bills, enough to buy half the town, and shoves it into
00:32:58Mom's hands.
00:32:59He says he'd give his entire fortune to buy all the trash stones I found.
00:33:03Seeing things go bad,
00:33:08Mark and Aunt Grace try to sneak away into the crowd like cowards.
00:33:12But the two men in black suits grab them by the collars and throw them hard into a filthy, stinking
00:33:19mud puddle.
00:33:24Mom's hands are shaking so much, she can barely hold the heavy stack of cash.
00:33:29She can't believe the rotten mushrooms and broken stones I casually picked up in the Blackwood Forest are actually worth
00:33:38more than gold.
00:33:39Mr. Sterling takes off his expensive top hat.
00:33:42He says,
00:33:43I'm an angel blessed by God.
00:33:45The villagers who used to point and gloss up are all shocked silent by this massive fortune.
00:33:52You just found these lying around?
00:33:55Good Lord, this child is absolutely a reincarnated angel.
00:34:00Only someone blessed by God could have such unbelievable luck.
00:34:03Mr. Sterling, I think we have an obligation to help this child get the compensation she deserves and make these
00:34:10scumbags face their punishment.
00:34:12The well-dressed lawyer steps forward.
00:34:15He calculates our damages at $3,500.
00:34:19That's an astrosnomical price.
00:34:22Enough to buy the whole town of Oakhaven.
00:34:25Mark doesn't want to pay the compensation.
00:34:28He tries to run towards a speeding coal train to hop on and escape.
00:34:36The bodyguard quickly drags him back from the train and pins him in the mud.
00:34:40He can't run anymore.
00:34:41The sheriff arrives and tells Aunt Grace that if she doesn't get the money together in 48 hours,
00:34:46she'll not only hand over Papa's farm that she stole, but she'll also rot in jail for the rest of
00:34:51her life.
00:34:58Late at night in Oakhaven, the wind tears at the ground like a mad beast.
00:35:01The old roof shakes, the drafty windows creak, but in the flickering light of the kerosene lamp, Aunt Grace is
00:35:06scarier than the storm.
00:35:07I found a picture today, a man in a uniform.
00:35:10I asked who he was.
00:35:11She said it was nothing, just someone who used to live here.
00:35:13The old roof shakes, the drafty windows crink.
00:35:17The $3,500 collection notice chokes her like a noose.
00:35:23Instead of repenting, Aunt Grace just stares at the document with the red thumbprint,
00:35:28plotting to steal the blood-soaked douching money under Grandma Ada's bed.
00:35:33Lightning flashes, lighting up Aunt Grace's soaked face.
00:35:37She raises cold plizers, snips the wire fence, and sneaks onto our farm.
00:36:00It rained so hard that night.
00:36:03The noise keeps me awake.
00:36:04I get up for a drink of water.
00:36:07Having no idea danger is so close.
00:36:19The wind is so strong outside.
00:36:22I'm afraid the rain will ruin the wood floor,
00:36:25so I drag a big iron bucket over and force the window shut tight.
00:36:29I think closing the window will keep the storm out.
00:36:32But I don't notice the old frame is rotten.
00:36:36The second I turn around, Aunt Grace pries it open.
00:36:48I don't know the window is broken and might fall if opened again.
00:36:53Aunt Grace risks her life for that money.
00:36:56She squeezes inside, scraping the skin right off her waist.
00:37:03The metal clangs loudly in the dead of night.
00:37:07Aunt Grace flails like a funny puppet,
00:37:10desperately trying to grab something to steady herself.
00:37:13Please don't fall.
00:37:14But she grabs a wobbly shell.
00:37:24Grandma Ada taught me that quick live boils like a kettle when it hits water.
00:37:30Aunt Grace screams so miserably.
00:37:33But...
00:37:35She wouldn't be hurt if she didn't sneak in through the window at midnight.
00:37:43Aunt Grace screams, smashes through the back door, and plunges into the terrestrial rain.
00:37:49The quick line boils on her face.
00:37:51The burning blinds her, making her stumble through the mud.
00:37:57Help!
00:37:58Even the farm dog avoids that stinky pit.
00:38:02Aunt Grace used to call me a smelly beggar.
00:38:04But now, even the skunk living in the pit is disgusted by her.
00:38:10Aunt Grace crawls out of the cesspool, her mind still obsessed with the money.
00:38:14When she finds the heavy, locked metal box in the junk pile,
00:38:19her burned eyes gleam scarier than a demon's.
00:38:23A locked box!
00:38:24The money must be inside!
00:38:36The smell of gunpowder overpowers the rain,
00:38:39and Grandma Ada's furious shout tears through the night.
00:38:43Aunt Grace actually hits the gas through a hail of bullets.
00:38:47In the pouring rain,
00:38:49Aunt Grace laughs like a dying maniac in the speeding truck.
00:38:58This 5000s is all mine!
00:39:00She hugs the metal box to her chest,
00:39:03thinking she holds all the wealth in the world,
00:39:05and has finally beaten everyone.
00:39:10Grandma Ada holds her shotgun, anxious to chase her.
00:39:14I stand barefoot in the mud, and gently tug her wet shirt to remind her.
00:39:19Uncle Thomas told me before that whenever it storms,
00:39:22the wooden bridge over there floods completely.
00:39:33The truck in the storm is like a wild beast out of control.
00:39:37I.E. Grace screams madly in the cab.
00:39:39When she sees the river completely swallowing the bridge,
00:39:42she falls into total despair.
00:39:49The crash shatters the rain.
00:39:52Aunt Grace doesn't die,
00:39:54but she lands somewhere worse than hell.
00:39:57Major Evans' military restricted zone.
00:40:01Money.
00:40:03My money.
00:40:04A dozen black Thompson submachine guns aim right at her head.
00:40:10Major steps forward in his raincoat with a cold face.
00:40:14I told you not to flee.
00:40:16Where do you think you're driving, Ms. Grace?
00:40:25It's over.
00:40:27It's all over.
00:40:31The stench from the truck is more nauseating than a rotting corpse in the black forest.
00:40:36It's the smell of cesspooled water mixed with Aunt Grace's bleed.
00:40:41Even as the MPs drag her into the mud, she clings to the heavy metal box.
00:40:46While Aunt Grace dreams of being rich, Grandma Ada arrives with me on her roaring tractor.
00:40:52Grandma looks at Aunt Grace in the mud and laughs with sheer contempt.
00:40:56Because the real pension money rests safely under the Hanson family's bed.
00:41:05Grandma Ada tells Major Evans the truth.
00:41:08And he pries open the heavy padlock with the daggers.
00:41:12With a loud clang, Aunt Grace's dream shatters completely.
00:41:16No!
00:41:19No!
00:41:27Stealing private property.
00:41:28Go join your husband in prison.
00:41:31Take her away.
00:41:33No!
00:41:43my once arrogant aunt and uncle now look like two cornered rabbits facing their final judgment
00:41:52grandma doesn't carry her scary shotgun today she puts me in a new lace dress
00:41:58and holds my hand stepping into the light like a guardian angel and he roars at Aunt Grace facing
00:42:1020 years in prison he doesn't hesitate to sign his name the gavel bangs down hard the judge declares
00:42:26that the farm and all the wealth dad left me are finally back in my hands the judge usually looks
00:42:41so mean and everyone is scared of him but today he bends down and smiles at us just like the
00:42:50chubby
00:42:50man in town who loves giving kids candy Aunt Grace used to plug her nose disgusted by the moldy barn
00:42:59smell on me but now she stinks so bad that even I have to turn my head and pinch my
00:43:06nose remember
00:43:09that freezing barn you kicked Leonie into on that stormy day from today on that broken barn is yours
00:43:17the guards can't stand Aunt Grace's sour stench they drag her out and her screams echo through the
00:43:23hall the adults surround me smiling and calling me a lucky little angel but I don't care all I know
00:43:33is that grandma's hand holding mine is big and warm and no one will ever force me into a freezing
00:43:39barn
00:43:39again I used to think this dirt could only grow hard rocks and starved bugs only today do I realize
00:43:49it can
00:43:50grow so much wheat that looks like pure gold grandma laughs so loudly today good girl look these are all
00:44:04gifts from God that neither of us notices Miss Ella staring at me she looks exactly like Aunt Grace
00:44:11used to when she wanted to hit me Miss Ella yells at James they want this most fertile land in
00:44:17town

00:56:24mclean files a petition to change guardianship at the court shattering my peaceful life with grandma ada
00:56:34it's a rare sweet moment but the screech of brakes shatters the peace
00:56:39two bailiffs step out of the car and walk straight up to grandma ada
00:56:43hello mrs hansen we're from the city court someone reported you for child abuse and is
00:56:48demanding you hand over leonessa's custody grandma ada is stunned once she snaps out of it
00:56:53she loudly protests and swears she never abused any child i swear on my life grandma ada is the best
00:57:02person in the world she has never abused me sorry we're just here to notify you direct any questions
00:57:09to the hearing next wednesday until then you are forbidden from transferring any assets under the
00:57:13girl's name but my promise is useless because everything will be decided in court the hearing

00:57:27execution mclean hired top flirt lawyer barry with serious cash while we could only find mr sterling
00:57:34mrs hansen do you have any idea how to raise a multi-million dollar girl or is your only skill
00:57:41abusing people and feeding pigs lawyer barry you should know that you need to present evidence for

00:58:31the judge has already been bought off by mclean he doesn't listen to a word be say the court leans
00:58:37towards revoking ada's guardianship transferring it to mclean's foundation and sending leonine to a
00:58:44closed boarding school on the east coast a closed school means i'll be totally at mclean's mercy and our
00:58:53oil wealth will be completely swallowed up i won't go to school i don't want to leave grandma ada
00:59:02everyone holds their breath the judge is about to strip grandma ada of my custody whatever is on that
