00:00Moms. One is my real mom, the other is my father's legal wife.
00:03If this post gets traffic, I'll let mom keep the baby.
00:06If not, I'll make sure she loses it.
00:09During a rare break between three jobs, Victoria Hawkins saw a viral post.
00:13The comments exploded.
00:15Then the boy posted a bank balance filled with endless zeros.
00:18Victoria thought it was a twisted rich family scandal.
00:21Then she saw the photo. It was her.
00:24Victoria, get a mop. VIP room.
00:30She put on her mask, walked into the luxury private club, and dropped to her knees to clean the floor.
00:35Dad, mom's post has low traffic. Tell her to get rid of the baby.
00:41Stop this nonsense. What's wrong with having a little sister?
00:44Sebastian, be good.
00:46Victoria gives your father pure love. As long as he is my husband, I don't mind.
00:50Hearing her own name, Victoria froze.
00:53After her family went bankrupt and her mother fell ill, Victoria worked non-stop to survive.
01:00She believed Jonathan was a poor laborer, a husband fighting through hardship beside her.
01:04Her poor husband was a billionaire.
01:09What are you looking at? Is this the quality of the cleaning staff at the club?
01:12She fell backward, slamming onto the marble tiles, a sharp pain ripping through her abdomen.
01:16The club manager sprinted in, dragged Victoria out into the hallway and hissed at her.
01:20Victoria realized the man she loved was the billionaire CEO of the Hughes Group.
01:24She curled up on the floor, a pool of dark crimson blood spreading beneath her.
01:28Victoria lost consciousness and woke up in a hospital room.
01:30Mr. Hughes asked me to convey his deepest apologies.
01:33There is $100,000 on this bank card as compensation.
01:35Victoria remembers Jonathan couldn't even afford an epidural when she was in labor.
01:39My baby is gone, isn't it?
01:42If you feel you require more money, I can immediately contact Mr. Hughes.
01:46There is no need.
01:47Are Mr. Hughes and his legal wife deeply in love?
01:49Of course they are.
01:50They are childhood sweethearts.
01:52A perfect match.
01:53The assistant told her about their grand wedding and the private sky garden he built for her.
01:57Victoria laughed maniacally, tears streaming down her pale cheeks.
02:02I understand now.
02:04You can go.
02:05Grandpa, I'm ready to come.
02:06Please book my flight.
02:08I thought you couldn't bear to leave your precious husband and son?
02:10Two years ago, the secretary had offered Victoria the family empire if she left Jonathan and Sebastian,
02:15but she had refused without hesitation.
02:16Now, Victoria realized all her sacrifices had been completely meaningless.
02:20I was wrong.
02:21I don't want them anymore.
02:22I only want to bring my mother with me for the best medical treatment.
02:25The secretary approved.
02:26Victoria was released from the hospital the next morning.
02:28Where is my breakfast?
02:31Victoria used to make him homemade breakfast rolls, but he never appreciated her efforts.
02:35She spotted the expensive lunchbox in his bag and realized he was just playing the poverty game.
02:39I didn't make any.
02:40I won't be making it ever again.
02:42Go buy something outside.
02:43Are you crazy?
02:44The street food is filthy.
02:45You can't even compare to Madeline.
02:47Sebastian clamped his mouth shut in panic, but Victoria said nothing and left for work.
02:50She took a humiliating job at a high-end shoe store, required to kneel to serve clients.
02:55The doorbell chimed, and Victoria plastered on a polite smile to greet the customer.
03:01She looked up, and her welcoming words died in her throat.
03:05Victoria?
03:06What are you doing here?
03:07Are you following me?
03:09You understand, sir.
03:10She's our newest sales clerk.
03:12Are you short on cash again?
03:13I told you to leave the money issues to me.
03:15Why would you come to a place like this and degrade yourself?
03:17Victoria stared at him, thinking of the news article about him and his wife working a boutique
03:20shift for a romantic dinner.
03:22What's degrading about earning money with my own two hands?
03:24Jonathan, is this your wife?
03:25I'll make sure to give her more business.
03:27Come here, new girl.
03:28Change my shoes.
03:29Madeline made a spectacle, forcing Victoria to kneel repeatedly to try on different shoes.
03:33Jonathan watched, a mix of irritation and heartache surging through him.
03:36That's enough, Ms. Black.
03:37You shouldn't be wearing high heels anyway.
03:38Oh, right.
03:39I'm pregnant.
03:40High heels really aren't a good idea right now.
03:41Sorry about that, new girl.
03:43Victoria was fixated on the word pregnant.
03:45Her own baby had died, unwanted and none mourned.
03:48Swallowing the bitter, suffocating taste of ash in her throat, Victoria numbly walked the
03:51two of them out of the store.
03:56Were you mad at me today?
03:58That was my boss's daughter.
04:00You won't have to work such long hours anymore.
04:03Even now, he was still feeding her lies.
04:07I know.
04:09Jonathan frowned, sensing something was off, but decided to take her to the outskirts the
04:14next day.
04:14Just keep Ms. Black company today.
04:16The pay is better.
04:17Be good.
04:17Your mother is still in the hospital.
04:19Sebastian eagerly threw himself at Madeline.
04:21Jonathan rushed to support her waist.
04:22The three of them laughed and joked, forgetting Victoria standing in the shadows.
04:26Suddenly, a car caraysed straight towards them.
04:28Victoria sprinted to save Sebastian.
04:30Jonathan and Sebastian shopped Victoria into the car's path and shielded Madeline.
04:33Madeline, are you okay?
04:34Why?
04:35Victoria woke on a stretcher.
04:37The doctor shouted Madeline needed an urgent blood transfusion.
04:39Draw my mom's blood.
04:40She has the same rare blood type.
04:42Get the best doctors.
04:43Draw Victoria's blood while you treat her.
04:46If anything happens to Madeline, I'll shut this hospital down.
04:50You're awake.
04:51Thank God you're okay.
04:52You didn't show any signs of a miscarriage.
04:53This is an absolute miracle.
04:55Victoria tried to push him away, knowing their baby was already dead.
04:58Are you blaming me?
04:58I just panicked.
04:59Sebastian came to apologize too.
05:02Mom, I'm sorry.
05:04And thank you.
05:05Get out.
05:06When you have this baby, I'll treat her like my real little sister.
05:09Jonathan and Sebastian tried to compensate her with care and gifts for a week.
05:14Then Victoria got a call saying her mother needed $500,000 for emergency surgery.
05:18She searched everywhere and found Jonathan at the Black Family Mansion having dinner.
05:22My mother is dying.
05:23I'm begging you.
05:24Please just lend me some money.
05:26Oh, it's you.
05:27I know my husband looks an awful lot like Jonathan, but he really isn't him.
05:30Yeah, we don't even know who you are.
05:32If you're looking for someone, you've got the wrong house.
05:35Guards, throw this woman out.
05:37Victoria was dragged out into the pouring rain.
05:40Her fingers bleeding as she clung to the gates.
05:45As she lay in the mud, she suddenly remembered the jewelry Jonathan had given her.
05:49Victoria stumbled into the boutique, clutching the jewelry Jonathan had given her to pay for
05:52her mother's surgery.
05:53These are custom pieces for the Hughes CEO's wife engraved with a Black Family initial.
05:56You must have stolen them.
05:57Victoria was taken to the police station, pleading desperately for release.
06:00I didn't steal anything.
06:01My husband and son can prove they gave these to me.
06:03Jonathan arrived, his shock turning to cold anger.
06:05Victoria, these are not the pieces I bought for you.
06:07Did you really steal Madeline's things?
06:08Mom, stop lying.
06:09I saw you digging through Madeline's bag.
06:10How could you repay her kindness like this?
06:12Please handle her according to the law.
06:13I'll take care of your mother if you accept your punishment quietly.
06:16Victoria collapsed, all strength leaving her.
06:19I plead guilty.
06:20I stole the jewelry.
06:22Please save my mother.
06:23Before she was transferred, Madeline walked into the station.
06:26I swapped the jewelry.
06:28I told Sebastian to frame you.
06:30Who told you to be a homewrecker?
06:33Victoria slapped Madeline hard across the face.
06:35The only shameless ones here are you and Jonathan.
06:38Good.
06:39I'll make sure the people in lockup treat you as you deserve.
06:46Victoria survived seven days in detention,
06:48covered in bruises and a jagged scar on her face.
06:50What happened to you?
06:51Who did this?
06:52Jonathan's phone rang.
06:53His face turned ice cold the moment he answered Madeline's call.
06:56You hit Miss Black when she visited you?
06:57Come with me to apologize.
06:58Your mother's surgery needs money only Miss Black can lend us.
07:01I'm sorry, Miss Black.
07:01I shouldn't have laid a hand on you.
07:03I'm not actually pregnant.
07:04Jonathan only wants children with you.
07:06That's why I despise you.
07:07Madeline threw herself backwards, screaming that her baby was hurt.
07:10What did you do?
07:12Doctors confirmed Madeline had lost the child.
07:15I didn't touch her.
07:16Sebastian saw everything.
07:17Mom pushed Madeline.
07:18Madeline didn't do anything.
07:20Whatever was left of Victoria's heart shattered into dust.
07:22Lock her in the basement and don't hurt the baby in her stomach.
07:27The basement was pitch black.
07:29Victoria, terrified of dark spaces, pounded weakly on the door.
07:32A cold, slimy snake slithered across her ankle.
07:34And she lost consciousness.
07:35I'm sorry.
07:36The door creaked open.
07:37Sebastian mundered and ran away.
07:39Victoria dragged herself out, but was hit hard on the back of the head and kidnapped.
07:42Call your husband.
07:43We want one million dollars.
07:44My husband is poor.
07:46He doesn't have that kind of money.
07:48Don't lie.
07:49Everyone knows the Hughes family is rich.
07:50The kidnapper called Jonathan.
07:52Madeline whispered Victoria was extorting him.
07:53Tell her to drop the act and crawl back to the basement.
07:56I won't be forgiving next time.
07:57The men beat her and dumped her on a desolate stretch of land outside the city.
08:01Victoria lay in the dirt, drowning in despair, ready to give up.
08:06Her phone lit up.
08:07It was a text from Grandpa Liam.
08:09A tiny spark of hope flickered in her dead eyes.
08:11She forced herself to stand.
08:14She refused to die here.
08:16She was going to leave this hell behind forever.
08:20After surviving the kidnapping, Victoria dragged her broken body back to the city.
08:24But before she could reach her mother, the black family found her first.
08:28Did you really have to go this far, tearing yourself apart just to put on a show?
08:33I should be the one asking you that, Mr. Hughes.
08:36Did you really have to pretend to be a poor man for six whole years just to play a sick
08:39game with me?
08:40I have no idea what you're talking about.
08:42Your mother's surgery is about to start.
08:44Now a hundred times in front of me, and this card is yours.
08:47Victoria, you killed her child. You should atone.
08:49Mom, just do it. Grandma can't wait much more longer.
08:53Begging you.
08:54Madeline is in so much pain over losing her baby.
08:56As long as you let her child rest in peace, she'll finally feel better.
09:00Victoria knew the child had never existed, but her mother's life was still trapped in Madeline's hand.
09:05So she swallowed her hatred and struck her forehead against the floor.
09:10I don't want to let you go. We'll get a real marriage certificate.
09:13Our family of four will be happy.
09:14Blood blooded her sight, but no one stopped her.
09:17When Victoria woke up, her phone was filled with missed calls from her mother's doctor.
09:23She rushed desperately toward the payment counter.
09:27There's money on this card! Do the surgery!
09:29Start the surgery right now!
09:31I'm sorry, ma'am. This card has been frozen.
09:35What a shame.
09:36The Hughes family destroyed the Hawkins family.
09:38Your mother is the last loose end.
09:42Madeline's words words frozen Victoria's blood.
09:45If I were you, I'd hurry and see your mother one last, last time.
09:50Her mother was still inside that hospital room, waiting for her.
09:55When Victoria burst through the door, she saw her mother strapped to the bed, forced to watch her daughter being
10:00humiliated again and again.
10:05The screen showed Victoria's suffering, then her love for Jonathan.
10:10Her mother had been forced to believe that her daughter betrayed the whole family.
10:16Monster.
10:17And then, it was too late.
10:19The woman who had once protected her from every storm was gone.
10:22Mom, no. Please don't leave me like this.
10:24Her mother's last word was not love.
10:26It was hatred.
10:27Then Jonathan finally called.
10:31I forgot to unfreeze the card earlier.
10:33You can use it now.
10:34Be good.
10:34Tomorrow, I'll bring Sebastian to visit your mother.
10:36He finally unlocked the money.
10:38But everything was already too late.
10:39When Victoria opened her eyes again, she was already on a plane.
10:42I'm deeply sorry about your mother.
10:44The plane hasn't taken off yet.
10:45Do you want to say goodbye to your husband and your son?
10:48No need.
10:48She left the city, the man, and the son she once loved behind.
10:53After Victoria hung up, Jonathan finally sensed something was wrong.
10:57Dad, what's wrong with Mom?
10:58She's probably just angry.
11:00I think she already knows about me and Madeline.
11:02For the first time, Sebastian was afraid his mother might truly leave.
11:06Then what do we do?
11:07I'll divorce Madeline.
11:08I'll explain everything to Victoria.
11:10Whatever she wants, I'll give it to her.
11:12Sebastian felt guilty toward Madeline,
11:14but the thought of getting his mother back still relieved him.
11:16But someone had heard everything.
11:18Madeline stood outside the door, holding the soup she had brought for him.
11:24You're going to leave me to marry the woman who killed my child?
11:28Her voice was broken, but every tear was a performance.
11:31I hid the truth because Victoria would never agree to be the other woman.
11:34If I don't divorce you now, she'll leave me forever, ever.
11:38The guilt in his eyes was real, but so was his fear of losing Victoria.
11:43I understand.
11:44No matter what you choose, I'll support you.
11:47Then she turned away, fragile enough to make him forget his anger.
11:51We grew up together.
11:52I've loved you for over 20 years.
11:54I really can't let you go.
11:56Don't worry.
11:56It won't happen that fast.
11:58If we divorce, I'll compensate you properly.
12:00Madeline had bought herself time.
12:02Mr. Hughes, the front desk just received a document.
12:04It looks like a miscarriage diagnosis report.
12:05And that report was about to destroy every lie.
12:10You're bothering me over something this trivial?
12:12But the moment Jonathan saw the report, something inside him went cold.
12:16At the bottom of the page was a name he knew too well.
12:18Victoria Hawkins.
12:20His Victoria had miscarried.
12:25Where did this come from?
12:27Who sent it?
12:28Isn't she the cleaner your son kicked that day?
12:30She miscarried it back then.
12:32The cleaner.
12:33The kick.
12:34The blood.
12:35The baby they thought was still alive.
12:38It all crashed into Jonathan at once.
12:40Jonathan still wanted to believe it was a mistake.
12:44Look carefully.
12:45Is this the woman you're talking about?
12:49Yes.
12:50That's her.
12:51There was no mistake.
12:52The woman on the floor that day had been Victoria.
12:55And Sebastian had kicked his own unborn sister out of her body.
12:59Dad.
13:00What happened to my little sister?
13:03Jonathan's silence gave him the answer.
13:05I have to find her.
13:06I have to ask her why she never told me.
13:07He still did not understand.
13:09Victoria had not hidden the truth.
13:11He had simply never cared enough to see it.
13:15Jonathan!
13:20After Jonathan ran after Victoria,
13:22Madeline had only one person left to hold on to.
13:27Seb.
13:28You have to help me.
13:30I don't want a divorce.
13:31I still want to take care of you.
13:32But didn't you just tell Dad you would support whatever he chose?
13:35For the first time,
13:37Sebastian heard the contradiction in her words.
13:41Were you lying to him?
13:43Like when you made me lie about Mom?
13:45If it weren't for you,
13:46my little sister wouldn't be gone.
13:48Mom wouldn't have suffered so much.
13:50He had known some of her lies,
13:51but he had chosen to help her anyway.
13:54She pushed her.
13:56But maybe it was my fault too.
13:57Madeline was not truly afraid of losing Jonathan.
14:00She was afraid of losing Sebastian's trust.
14:02No, Seb.
14:03I've been good to you for six years.
14:05Do you really think all of my love was fake?
14:07I don't know anymore.
14:11But the way Mom loved me,
14:13that had to be real.
14:14The love he once believed in began to collapse.
14:17And with that,
14:18Sebastian ran after his father.
14:21Jonathan went straight back to the tiny apartment
14:22where he had played poor for six years.
14:24It was still clean,
14:25still warm looking,
14:26but Victoria was gone.
14:27Victoria, come out.
14:28I know you're angry.
14:30Let's just talk.
14:31For the first time,
14:32the home he loved answered him with silence.
14:35Jonathan searched every place Victoria had ever worked.
14:38The club,
14:38the shoe counter,
14:39the restaurant,
14:40every answer was the same.
14:43She quit.
14:44She left.
14:45We don't know where she went.
14:47With nowhere else to go,
14:49he rushed to the hospital
14:50where Victoria's mother had been staying.
14:53But every ward he checked was empty.
14:57Are you looking for Miss Hawkins' mother?
15:01The card Mrs. Hawkins brought was locked.
15:03Her mother didn't get the emergency surgery in time.
15:06The frozen card,
15:07the missed calls,
15:09the delay.
15:10Every second had pushed Victoria's mother closer to death.
15:13Her mother?
15:13Is she still alive?
15:15I'm sorry.
15:16She passed away.
15:17Miss Hawks fainted from the shock.
15:20Later,
15:21a man in a suit took her away.
15:23He said he was taking her to see her grandfather.
15:25Jonathan had never cared about Victoria's mother.
15:27But now,
15:28her death meant Victoria was truly gone.
15:31By the time he returned home,
15:33he looked like a man hollowed out.
15:35Dad,
15:36where's Mom?
15:36Why didn't you bring her back?
15:38If you won't bring her back,
15:38I'll find her myself.
15:39Find what?
15:40She doesn't want you anymore.
15:41She left the country.
15:42She doesn't want either of us.
15:43It's all my fault.
15:45It's all because of me.
15:47Sebastian,
15:47Jonathan froze.
15:48Through his grief,
15:49he finally heard something was wrong.
15:52Sebastian,
15:53tell me,
15:53what do you mean it was your fault?
15:55The pressure finally broke the six-year-old child.
15:58Madeline was never pregnant.
16:00She can't get pregnant at all.
16:01There was no baby.
16:04There was no hemorrhage.
16:05No miscarriage.
16:07It was all a setup.
16:08The fake pregnancy.
16:10The stolen jewelry.
16:11The false testimony.
16:12She told me to lie.
16:14Mom never pushed her.
16:15The truth shattered the last piece of patience
16:17Jonathan had left.
16:21Jonathan,
16:22you're back.
16:23Why?
16:24Why did you do this to her?
16:25For the sake of the years
16:26they had known each other,
16:27he forced himself to let go.
16:29What else have you lied about?
16:35What is there to say?
16:36Yes,
16:37I did all of it.
16:38I did it because I love you.
16:40Did you expect me to watch you
16:41play house with her?
16:43For six years,
16:44she had waited in a mansion
16:45that felt like a cage.
16:48You wanted to throw me away
16:49for that woman?
16:50For one moment,
16:51Jonathan wondered if his lies
16:52had created this madness.
16:54But guilt was not forgiveness.
16:58Get out of the Hughes house.
16:59I never want to see your face again.
17:05In Australia,
17:06Victoria was given a few quiet days
17:08to recover.
17:10But grief could not be washed away
17:11like blood and dust.
17:18At the head of the dining table
17:19sat Liam Hawkins,
17:20the grandfather she had once
17:21refused to return to.
17:23Beside him sat a little boy
17:25Victoria had never seen before.
17:26Grandpa,
17:27is this your kid?
17:29Nonsense!
17:30What kind of question is that?
17:31How did Ethan raise
17:32a daughter like you?
17:33At the mention of her father's name,
17:35the faint spark
17:35in Victoria's eyes
17:36disappeared.
17:38Her father was gone,
17:39her mother was gone,
17:40and she felt utterly alone.
17:41I'm sorry about your mother.
17:44But I wasn't sure
17:45you would really leave
17:46the Hughes family,
17:47so I didn't step in.
17:50I understand.
17:52Victoria did not blame him.
17:53She blamed herself.
17:54Just when the silence
17:55threatened to swallow her,
17:56a small warm hand
17:57touched her sleeve.
18:00Please don't be sad.
18:01If you want to cry,
18:02it's okay.
18:03Hudson won't laugh at you.
18:04So your name is Hudson?
18:05You're so sweet.
18:07For the first time
18:07since everything fell apart,
18:09Victoria felt something gentle.
18:11Good.
18:12You two get along well.
18:14Spend the next few days
18:15with Hudson.
18:16After all,
18:17you're going to be his mother
18:17from now on.
18:18What?
18:21Soon after Victoria arrived
18:22at her grandfather's estate,
18:24Hudson dragged her
18:24to meet his father.
18:26Under the gazebo,
18:26a man was waiting for them.
18:28One glance was enough
18:28for Victoria to know
18:29he was nothing like she expected.
18:32Victoria?
18:32This is my dad Henry.
18:35Victoria forced herself
18:36to stay calm.
18:36No matter who this man was,
18:38this marriage could only be a deal.
18:39Hello.
18:39I'm Victoria.
18:40It is a pleasure
18:41to finally meet you,
18:42Mrs. Hawkins.
18:43Henry was calm,
18:44dangerous,
18:44and impossible to read.
18:45But Victoria had no room
18:46left for romance.
18:47She only needed a way
18:48back to revenge.
18:49I know you need a wife.
18:51And I'm willing to help
18:52take care of Hudson.
18:53But we have no emotional foundation.
18:56We can simply take what we need
18:57and cooperate.
18:59A few hours earlier,
19:01Liam had given Victoria
19:02the condition
19:02that forced her to come here.
19:05If you want to inherit
19:06everything I own,
19:07accept this marriage alliance.
19:08Your mother was murdered
19:10by them.
19:10Are you telling me
19:11you feel no hatred?
19:13If Victoria wanted revenge,
19:15she had to become
19:15his heir first.
19:17I refuse.
19:21What?
19:22We can always cultivate
19:23those feelings together.
19:28Henry moved into the estate,
19:29and Victoria's quiet days ended.
19:33Victoria, come on.
19:34Let's go have dinner.
19:35Hudson always promised
19:36it would be just the two of them.
19:37But Henry was always waiting.
19:39How about I take you out tonight?
19:42Just you and me.
19:44But Dad said I had to bring you to him.
19:49Victoria finally escaped with Hudson
19:51to a private restaurant.
19:52Or so she thought.
19:54Victoria thought she was finally ahead,
19:56but the game was never hers to play.
19:59Leaving me behind, Mrs. Hawkins?
20:01You're really breaking my heart.
20:04Building a relationship.
20:07I told you.
20:09This marriage is only cooperation.
20:12And I told you.
20:15I am serious.
20:19You want revenge?
20:20I can help you get it.
20:21As long as you give me a chance
20:23to love you.
20:26Three months later,
20:28the Black family hosted
20:29a grand banquet.
20:31Dad, didn't you say
20:33you found Mom?
20:33Why aren't we going to get her?
20:36After tonight,
20:36we'll go straight to her.
20:38Do you think Mom will forgive me?
20:40Of course.
20:41You're her favorite person
20:42in the world.
20:45Jonathan, I was foolish before.
20:47I made so many mistakes.
20:49I only hope
20:50the Black family
20:51and the Hughes family
20:51can move past this.
20:53Just as Madeline
20:54tried to reclaim the spotlight,
20:55the ballroom doors opened.
20:59Mrs. Black,
21:00it's been a long time.
21:01What are you doing here?
21:02The Black family
21:03didn't invite you.
21:04I'm here representing
21:05the Edwards family.
21:06Am I not welcome?
21:07Any guest is a friend of ours.
21:09Of course you're welcome.
21:13What's wrong, Madeline?
21:14Are you scared?
21:15Don't worry.
21:16I haven't even started yet.
21:19But now that I'm back,
21:21I'll make sure you pay
21:22for what you did.
21:23Madeline ran from the room
21:25in terror.
21:26Victoria,
21:26God, I missed you so much.
21:31Jonathan thought
21:32Victoria had come back for him.
21:35But without hesitation,
21:36she slapped him
21:37across the face.
21:40You've gotten brave,
21:41haven't you?
21:42You actually dare
21:43to hit me now.
21:45We are strangers.
21:47Strangers?
21:48We're husband and wife.
21:49Husband and wife?
21:50Did we ever have
21:51a marriage certificate?
21:56You tricked me
21:57into being your mistress
21:58for six years.
21:59But we still have Sebastian.
22:01Mom,
22:01I missed you so much.
22:04For one second,
22:06Victoria almost forgot
22:07how much he had hurt her.
22:08Then Victoria gently
22:09pushed Sebastian away.
22:11Mom,
22:12do you really not want me anymore?
22:13We share blood.
22:14That will never change.
22:16But right now,
22:17I don't want to look at you.
22:19You're his mother.
22:20How can you say that to him?
22:21When he helped
22:22Madeline frame me,
22:22did he remember
22:23I was his mother?
22:24I've divorced Madeline.
22:25Sebastian will never
22:26speak to her again.
22:27Come back to us.
22:27One divorce cannot erase
22:28six years of lies.
22:29Don't follow me.
22:30Don't make me despise
22:31you both even more.
22:35But when Victoria
22:36deprined for her
22:37returned to her hotel,
22:38Madeline struck back online.
22:39A homewrecker
22:40forced her way
22:41into my marriage.
22:42Within hours,
22:43Victoria's photos
22:43were everywhere.
22:44It seems Miss Hawkins
22:45has run into a little trouble.
22:46Do you need my help?
22:47No need.
22:48I can handle this myself.
22:50But I really,
22:50really want to help.
22:51I'm already at the airport.
22:53And Hudson came along too.
22:58By morning,
22:59the homewrecker scandal
23:00had disappeared
23:01from the internet.
23:02Then Jonathan called.
23:05Open the door.
23:06Let's talk.
23:07What do you want?
23:11I handled Madeline's mess.
23:13Don't be mad.
23:14Why would a way
23:16I was the other woman,
23:17wasn't I?
23:19Don't say that.
23:20I know I was wrong.
23:21I loved you.
23:23I only hid the truth
23:24because I was afraid
23:25money would ruin us.
23:28I don't know
23:28what else to tell you.
23:30Then prove it.
23:33Help me get revenge
23:34on Madeline.
23:35Madeline was wrong,
23:36but she only couldn't
23:36let go of our marriage.
23:39She murdered my mother.
23:42She froze the surgery money.
23:45The next day,
23:46Sebastian came to
23:47Victoria's hotel room.
23:53Mom,
23:54can I come in?
23:55Why are you here?
23:58Dad said Madeline
23:59has paid the price.
24:00Jonathan had forced
24:00the black family
24:01to abandon Madeline.
24:02It's not enough.
24:03She needs to face the law.
24:04Mom,
24:05I'm sorry.
24:06I never wanted
24:06my sister to die.
24:09Will you forgive me?
24:11Use your own heart
24:12from now on.
24:13Mom will not
24:14abandon you.
24:15Then you can marry
24:16Dad again,
24:17right?
24:18The softness
24:19in Victoria's heart
24:20vanished instantly.
24:24Looks like someone's
24:25trying to cut in on me.
24:27Mom,
24:27I missed you!
24:30Mom missed you too,
24:31Hudson.
24:32Who is this?
24:34Is he your son, Mom?
24:35Why is he calling you Mom?
24:38She married my dad.
24:39That means she's my mom.
24:41Mom, he's lying, right?
24:42He is not lying.
24:44I am legally married.
24:46There is no chance
24:47for your dad and me anymore.
24:48But you are still my child.
24:50Sebastian shoved Hudson
24:52and ran out.
24:52His driver is outside.
24:53He'll be fine.
25:00Victoria thought her heart
25:02would never move again.
25:03Because we missed you, Mom.
25:06You two stay here.
25:07I need to check on Sebastian.
25:09But the moment
25:09Victoria stepped outside,
25:10a black van
25:11stopped in front of her.
25:13When she woke up,
25:14she was tied to a chair
25:15in an abandoned factory.
25:19It's miserable, isn't it?
25:20It was Madeline.
25:22Don't rush.
25:23It isn't time
25:24for you to talk yet.
25:28Madeline,
25:28let Victoria go!
25:30I came alone.
25:31No police.
25:32No one else.
25:35You want me to let her go?
25:36Fine.
25:41Don't touch her.
25:42He stabbed himself.
25:44Then come to hell with me.
25:47But Henry caught it
25:48before it landed.
25:50Police, freeze!
25:56You really are an idiot.
25:59When Jonathan woke up,
26:01Victoria sitting with
26:02City's side his hospital bed.
26:04Victoria,
26:05you stayed.
26:06Does that mean...
26:10Don't even think about it.
26:11I'm only here
26:12because your injury
26:12is partly because of me.
26:15Is there really
26:16no chance left at all?
26:17I'll come back
26:18to visit Sebastian.
26:19But that is all.
26:22Are you really married
26:23to someone else?
26:24All that matters
26:25is that I like Henry.
26:28I understand.
26:30I wish you happiness.
26:33Then Victoria went
26:34to see Madeline
26:35one last time.
26:40Are you here
26:41to laugh at me?
26:43Yes.
26:44And you look
26:44completely pathetic.
26:48I'm only here
26:49because of you!
26:52The one you should
26:53have hated
26:54was Jonathan.
26:55But you poured
26:56all your rage
26:56onto me.
27:00That is why
27:01you are pathetic.
27:03Victoria walked out
27:04without looking back.
27:05This time,
27:06she was free.
27:07Behind her
27:08was the lie.
27:09Ahead of her
27:10was home.
27:10I'm going to
27:11But I
27:12don't know
27:13you
27:13are
