00:00Okay, both double income, no kids retired together.
00:02We were planning to travel the world together when he suddenly came clean.
00:06I've publicly claimed we were child-free for 30 years.
00:10Now it's time to bring my children back home where they belong.
00:13But I had seen this coming long ago and smiled meaningfully.
00:16He thought I had lost my mind and continued.
00:18A man passing on his line is only natural.
00:21You couldn't have kids, so I played along.
00:24But now, I owe my children an explanation.
00:28He proposed a divorce, wanting to take his pair of children and their mother on a family trip together.
00:33I agreed immediately, gracefully stepping aside and leaving.
00:37When news of the divorce spread, everyone sympathized with me.
00:43An elderly neighbor felt my pain.
00:45At her age, abandoned by her husband.
00:47What a miserable old age. So tragic.
00:50A college girl from the same apartment complex fumed on my behalf.
00:54That old bastard Charles is such a scumbag.
00:57Back then, he said they'd never have kids.
01:00Just enjoy their twin stem.
01:01Now look, his own son and daughter are old enough to make him a grandfather.
01:05Chatting with old friends. They couldn't help but sign.
01:07You were so glamorous in your youth.
01:09Successful career, living freely.
01:11But you insisted on being child-free, and now you're old and all alone.
01:15Even my parents advised me.
01:17As long as you don't divorce, his children become yours.
01:20They'll care for you in old age.
01:22When we pass on, we'll have peace mind.
01:27They all thought I was forced into divorce, that I was devastated, that I had no one to
01:31rely on in old age, that my whole life had become a joke.
01:35I didn't explain, nor could I be bothered to refute them one by one.
01:38How things would turn out for the two of us.
01:40When the time came, they would know.
01:42Charles, on the other hand, was writing hi.
01:45He posted a family photo on social media with the caption,
01:47In the photo, he stood in the center, a young man and woman on either side,
01:53their faces radiating youthful pride.
01:55And the woman who could carry on his bloodline had her arm linked through his,
01:59smiling warmly and gracefully.
02:01Someone commented,
02:02Look at that.
02:03Now that's a winner in life.
02:05Indeed, Charles had won big.
02:07In his youth, he enjoyed the twosome life with me,
02:10living freely his whole life,
02:11never suffering through midnight feedings and diaper changes.
02:14Yet, in his old age,
02:15he had both a son and a daughter to bring him joy.
02:18How could that not count as winning at life?
02:20Now that he was retired,
02:22his career and reputation would no longer be affected.
02:25And me, at my age,
02:26abandoned by my husband and left with nothing,
02:29naturally invited people's sides.
02:30But little did they know,
02:31I had been prepared all along.
02:33In this marriage, he wasn't the only one acting.
02:42The divorce proceedings went quickly.
02:44So quickly I felt somewhat dazed.
02:45Charles personally drove me to the courthouse.
02:48When signing, his hand didn't tremble at all.
02:50Instead, it was as if he had finally shed some burden,
02:53swift and decisive.
02:54He smiled at the clerk.
02:56What can you do?
02:57We're both old, and the love is gone.
02:59But at least,
03:00I still have my son and daughter with me.
03:03I can enjoy family happiness too.
03:05The clerk looked at me apologetically,
03:07eyes full of sympathy and comfort.
03:08I smiled too, but said nothing.
03:10After the divorce, with a grand gesture,
03:12he hired people to clear out the bedroom I had lived in for over 30 years,
03:15eagerly bringing Vivian and the children home.
03:17I didn't fight or argue.
03:19I didn't even bother hiring a lawyer.
03:21I just took my half of the savings and a few important items,
03:24and moved out cleanly and efficiently.
03:26The day Vivian moved in,
03:27I came back to pack up my last belongings.
03:29As soon as I opened the door,
03:31I saw brand new photos displayed in the living room.
03:33Our wedding photos had been replaced by their family portrait,
03:37the four of them.
03:39Charles sat in the center,
03:41Vivian holding his arm,
03:42with two similar looking young adults in their 20s standing on either side,
03:46full of vigor.
03:46When I walked in,
03:48the lively atmosphere instantly turned cold,
03:50as if announcing my unwelcome presence.
03:52Vivian greeted me with a smile.
03:57Oh, Stella!
03:58Did you leave something behind?
04:01Let me help you look for it.
04:02Playing the hostess like she owned the place.
04:04Just a few last things.
04:05I'll take them all today.
04:06I said indifferently.
04:08Charles sat on the sofa without looking up,
04:10as if waiting for me to get the hint and leave.
04:18Charles sat on the sofa,
04:19not even lifting his head,
04:20casually flipping through the newspaper,
04:22as if waiting for me to get the hint and leave on my own.
04:24Chloe and Connor stood to the side,
04:26their eyes filled with undisguised distance and wariness,
04:29treating me like a stranger who had barged in.
04:30Mom, this place looks a bit dated,
04:32and the living room is kind of dark.
04:34How about a renovation with a new style?
04:36Chloe said casually.
04:37Yeah, the sofa needs replacing too.
04:39So old-fashioned.
04:40How did dad live in a place like this?
04:42Connor chimed in.
04:42I listened to the nitpick and watched Charles remain silent.
04:45I felt like laughing.
04:45This was the home Charles and I had shared for 30 years.
04:48Every piece of furniture carefully chosen.
04:50Now I was being dismissed as worthless.
04:51Vivian affectionately held Charles' arm.
04:53See how opinionated the children are?
04:54This house needs a complete makeover.
04:56We can't short charge ourselves.
04:58Charles finally looked up slowly and glanced at me.
05:01Stella, are you done packing?
05:03Take everything at once so you won't have to keep coming back.
05:05It's awkward for everyone.
05:06He meant for me to leave and never come back,
05:07so I wouldn't be an eyesore to their family of four.
05:09I looked away, picked up my bag,
05:11stood at the doorway,
05:12and glanced back one last time at what had once been my home.
05:15Vivian leaned weakly against Charles peeling an orange,
05:17while the two children sat side by side on the sofa watching TV,
05:20the three of them chatting and laughing,
05:22as if this home had always been like this,
05:24composed of their family of four,
05:26with no place for me.
05:27The way Charles looked at Vivian was with respect for the mother of his children,
05:30and guilt for having kept her as a secret lover all these years.
05:32As for me,
05:33I was just an old woman he had grown tired of,
05:35with no children by my side,
05:37deserving to fend for myself.
05:38A cold laugh echoed in my heart.
05:40Fine, since you want me gone,
05:41I'll leave cleanly,
05:42so you can enjoy this brief pretense of affection.
05:45After all,
05:45in a few days it will be you turning on each other.
05:49After the divorce,
05:50I moved into an apartment.
05:51It wasn't far from my former home,
05:53but it felt like a different world.
05:55I didn't feel any particular discomfort.
05:57Without Charles in the house,
05:59I actually enjoyed the peace and quiet,
06:00but outsiders didn't see it that way.
06:03No matter how capable and free-spirited you were in your youth,
06:06you still lost in the end.
06:07This was the shared opinion of relatives and friends.
06:10My mother couldn't hold back tears when she saw me.
06:12You're living alone now,
06:13with no one to take care of you.
06:15What if you get sick someday?
06:16You insisted on being child-free before.
06:19Look at you now.
06:20Wouldn't it be nice to have a child?
06:22At least you wouldn't end up like this.
06:23My father sighed,
06:24his face full of regret.
06:25We shouldn't have let you have your way back then.
06:27If we had persuaded you more,
06:28you wouldn't be in this situation now.
06:30Their words implicitly blamed me for insisting on being child-free,
06:33saying that's why I lost my husband's heart.
06:35The most ridiculous thing was that my friends also thought Charles hadn't done anything terribly wrong.
06:39A man needs to have children.
06:40Charles was willing to play along with you for so many years.
06:45That's already going above and beyond.
06:46You were too stubborn back then.
06:48All these years, I've never understood.
06:50What were you thinking?
06:51Honestly, you're both old now.
06:53Vivian would still have to call you big sister.
06:55Why not just make do and live together?
06:57I thought at most they'd advise me to accept Charles' children.
06:59I never imagined they'd suggest Vivian and I share one husband.
07:02But they never considered that neither child shared a single drop of blood with me.
07:06Even if I stayed, how many good days could I possibly have?
07:08What they didn't know was that the infertile one had never been me.
07:15When I first insisted on being child-free,
07:17bearing the pressure from everyone,
07:19my declaration that I would never have children was denounced as selfish and unfilial.
07:23Charles' parents pressured him to divorce me,
07:25but he said he didn't mind,
07:26as long as we could live happily together.
07:28Moved by his words,
07:30I became even more resolute in my decision.
07:32For decades, I bore all the blame myself,
07:35protecting his reputation,
07:36even his confidence and dignity as a man,
07:38only to discover he had given me nothing but a complete and utter deception.
07:41He never pressured me to have children because I wasn't his only woman.
07:45If I didn't give birth,
07:46he could have other women bear his children,
07:48and he could maintain his reputation as a loving husband
07:50while gaining my parents' trust and support.
07:52Why wouldn't he play along?
07:54When I discovered the truth,
07:55I never imagined that my seemingly gentle husband was so deeply calculating.
07:59I was wrong,
08:00but my mistake was in not having children.
08:02My mistake was taking it upon myself to protect his dignity as a man.
08:05For that,
08:06I was even willing to give up my right to be a mother.
08:08So I planned for years,
08:10waiting for the moment when his act fell apart,
08:12to deliver him a devastating blow.
08:16Soon,
08:17I received the wedding invitation for Charles and Vivian's wedding.
08:20The invitation was in Vivian's handwriting,
08:22saying that as Charles' ex-wife,
08:23I must want to see him happy too,
08:25and my presence would mean the world to them.
08:27I let out a derisive laugh.
08:28What beautiful words.
08:29So high-sounding they made me sick.
08:31Mean the world to them?
08:32Vivian had been Charles' secret lover for 30 years.
08:34Having finally made it to the altar,
08:36she naturally couldn't wait to gloat in front of me.
08:38I took the invitation and casually glanced at it.
08:40The ceremony was at the city's most luxurious five-star hotel.
08:43Quite an upscale venue.
08:44Charles must have wanted to compensate Vivian
08:46for 30 years of hidden suffering with the grand wedding.
08:48When my friends heard that Vivian had invited me to her wedding with Charles,
08:51they were all furious.
08:54What does he mean by this?
08:56He's obviously trying to humiliate you.
08:58Exactly.
08:59You just moved out,
09:00and he's already marrying his mistress in style.
09:03He's clearly trying to embarrass you.
09:05You absolutely shouldn't go.
09:06Going would just be asking for humiliation.
09:08I listened to their angry voices
09:10without feeling a single ripple in my heart.
09:12In fact, a smile crept to my lips.
09:13Of course I'm going.
09:15Don't worry.
09:16I'm not going to make myself miserable.
09:18My friend looked at me in confusion.
09:20I'm just going to watch a comedy show, Stella.
09:24The show is about to begin.
09:31On the wedding day,
09:32the ballroom was decorated magnificently.
09:34Charles stood in the center of the crowd,
09:36receiving blessings from relatives and friends,
09:38while Vivian held his arm,
09:40smiling warmly and elegantly.
09:42The picture of a dignified hostess.
09:44And I walked in with a confident expression,
09:46completely unabashed.
09:47When the guests saw me,
09:48the smiles on their faces instantly became knowing and significant.
09:51Why is she here?
09:52Someone whispered.
09:53She's not here to cause trouble, is it?
09:56Well, who can blame her?
09:58Being abandoned by Charles,
10:01anyone would feel upset.
10:02They all thought I had come to cry,
10:04to argue,
10:05to seek sympathy.
10:06But they were wrong.
10:06If only one person could have the last laugh at this wedding,
10:09that person would definitely be me.
10:11I picked up a glass of champagne,
10:12walked slowly to Charles and Vivian,
10:14and smiled.
10:16Congratulations.
10:17You finally got what you wanted.
10:19A flicker of triumph flashed in Vivian's eyes.
10:21She leaned against Charles lightly,
10:22her tone gentle yet provocative.
10:24Thank you for coming.
10:25After all,
10:26back then,
10:27you pretended to be child-free because you couldn't conceive.
10:31Charles didn't want to hurt you,
10:32so he came up with this solution.
10:34The best of both worlds.
10:36Charles walked over with a drink and raised his glass to me.
10:39It's all in the past.
10:40I believe I stayed by your side and did my duty.
10:44Now I'm old and want to enjoy my later years,
10:47surrounded by children.
10:49I hope you can understand.
10:51I lowered my head and chuckled softly,
10:53my gaze sweeping over Chloe and Connor behind them.
10:56Let them enjoy their moment of triumph for now,
10:58because the storm is about to descend.
11:05The wedding proceeded as planned.
11:07On stage,
11:08Charles and Vivian were exchanging vows,
11:10holding hands and gazing at each other with tears in their eyes.
11:13Chloe and Connor went up to give them flowers.
11:15Charles looked at the two young adults in their prime,
11:17as if seeing his own youth reflected in them.
11:19He thought,
11:20perhaps this was the price of continuing one's bloodline.
11:23Stella would never understand this feeling,
11:25which is why he had resolutely abandoned her.
11:27Halfway through the wedding,
11:28Charles suddenly produced a property deed.
11:30I once thought I would die childless
11:32and alone in my old age,
11:34but heaven has been kind to me.
11:36My beloved Vivian has given me
11:38a son and a daughter,
11:40allowing me to live a complete life.
11:42Vivian looked at Charles,
11:43tears already glistening in her eyes.
11:45I have little to give them,
11:46so I've decided to transfer the property under my name
11:50to the two children to help them thrive.
11:54Cheers erupted from the audience.
11:56Chloe and Connor covered their mouths excitedly
11:58and looked at Vivian.
11:59The three of them were expressions of assured victory,
12:02but I stood up and shouted,
12:04I object!
12:05Vivian hadn't received the property deed yet.
12:07Interrupted by me,
12:08she was furious.
12:09Stella, today is a wonderful day for our family of four.
12:13What kind of trouble are you trying to cause?
12:15Charles looked at me with disgust,
12:17his eyes contemptuous yet resigned.
12:18Stella, I know you're upset
12:20about not being able to have children
12:22and jealous seeing my family,
12:24but you have to accept reality.
12:28We're divorced.
12:29The house may have both our names on it,
12:32but we're old now.
12:33What use is it to us?
12:34Chloe and Connor nodded continuously,
12:36even encouraging the guests to boo me.
12:38The emcee also tried to persuade me.
12:40Mrs. Stella, as Mr. Charles' ex-wife,
12:43you must want him to have a harmonious family
12:45and someone to care for him in old age, right?
12:47I put down my glass and said indifferently,
12:50of course.
12:53But I need to correct one thing.
12:55The one who can't have children isn't me.
12:58The hall fell into dead silence.
13:02Vivian was taken aback and Charles frowned too.
13:05What do you mean by that?
13:06It means nothing special.
13:07I shook my head gently.
13:08A touch of pity in my eyes.
13:09My eggs are still frozen at the egg bank.
13:12Perfectly healthy.
13:13The doctor said they can be retrieved
13:16for embryo cultivation anytime.
13:18Charles understood I had frozen my eggs for IVF,
13:20and he was completely enraged.
13:22Didn't you say you didn't want children with me?
13:24Now we're divorced and you want IVF?
13:27Are you out of your mind?
13:29You really don't want to bear my child that badly?
13:31I slapped him hard across the face,
13:33grabbed the emcee's microphone,
13:34and spoke loudly enough for everyone present to hear.
13:37Because the one who can't have children has never been me.
13:40It's you.
13:41Charles, you have severe aloxpermia.
13:43You have no fertility whatsoever.
13:46The hall fell into dead silence in an instant.
13:48Then came an uproar.
13:50Charles is infertile?
13:51Is that true?
13:52But Vivian already gave him two children, didn't she?
13:55Stella must have gone crazy.
13:56She couldn't have children herself,
13:58and now she's slandering Charles.
14:01The guests whispered among themselves,
14:02and many had already pulled out their phones to record.
14:04Charles' face turned dark with fury.
14:06Vivian stood frozen, her face deathly pale,
14:08her lips trembling slightly.
14:09What nonsense are you spouting?
14:11Charles stepped forward aggressively.
14:12His gaze so dark, it seemed he wanted to tear me apart.
14:15I let out a derisive laugh,
14:16reached into my bag, pulled out my phone,
14:18and played a recording.
14:19The clear voice instantly filled the entire wedding hall
14:22through the microphone.
14:22Mrs. Stella, after examination,
14:24your fertility is completely normal,
14:26and your ovarian function is excellent.
14:27But Mr. Charles' situation is not very optimistic.
14:30What does that mean?
14:30His sperm motility is extremely low.
14:32Basically, there is virtually no chance of conception.
14:34His condition is quite severe,
14:36almost no possibility.
14:37Even with IVF,
14:38the success rate would be extremely low.
14:40I understand, Dr. Lewis.
14:41Please don't tell him about this yet.
14:43Don't tell anyone else either.
14:45Let this be between you, me, and God.
14:47Mrs. Stella, this kind of thing can't be hidden forever.
14:49When you can't conceive after marriage,
14:51it will naturally come to light.
14:52It's fine.
14:53I'll tell him and our parents
14:54that I don't want children,
14:56that I insist on being child-free.
14:59That way, no one will know the problem lies with Charles.
15:02The recording finished playing.
15:04A deathly silence fell.
15:05All eyes turned to Vivian and her two children.
15:10Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned simultaneously
15:12toward Vivian and the two children behind her.
15:15Her face had turned completely white,
15:17and her fingertips were trembling.
15:18Chloe and Connor fidgeted restlessly,
15:20trying to flee the hall.
15:21Oh my God, so all these years,
15:23Stella insisted on being child-free
15:25to protect Charles' dignity
15:27because he's the one who's infertile?
15:29Then Vivian's children-
15:30It's fake!
15:30Vivian's lips moved slightly,
15:32her voice trembling violently.
15:33You must have had someone forge it!
15:34I gave a cold laugh,
15:35opened a second file,
15:36and a video immediately began playing
15:38on the projection screen.
15:39The footage showed a dimly lit hotel room,
15:41with a man and woman entangled on the bed.
15:43The woman's face was flushed,
15:44panting softly,
15:45her voice seductive and triumphant.
15:47Honey, I'm pregnant.
15:49The man's voice followed,
15:50carrying a hint of panic and resistance.
15:51No way.
15:52This child can't be mine, can it?
15:54Vivian chuckled softly,
15:55her voice alluring and cunning.
15:56Of course it's yours.
15:58But don't worry.
16:00Neither I nor the child
16:01need you to take responsibility.
16:04What do you mean?
16:06Charles doesn't have children yet.
16:07His wife insists on being child-free,
16:09and he's desperate.
16:11He's been begging me to bear his children.
16:13I'll just say the child is his.
16:15He'll definitely treasure me like a gem.
16:17The man was silent for a moment,
16:18then laughed softly.
16:19You really are something else.
16:21Vivian hooked her arm around his neck,
16:22whispering softly.
16:23We'll seize all the property and inheritance.
16:27Then we can enjoy our golden years in peace.
16:31As soon as she finished speaking,
16:32the man got excited and lunged down
16:34to entangle with the woman beneath him again.
16:35The video ended abruptly there.
16:38Everyone was stunned.
16:39A silence like death.
16:40Vivian completely collapsed onto the floor,
16:42her hands clutching her wedding gown tightly,
16:44her eyes filled with terror and despair.
16:46Charles's face had reached
16:47its most terrible expression.
16:48He clenched his fists,
16:50his body trembling slightly,
16:51veins bulging at his temples.
16:53He was clearly at the peak of rage.
16:54Vivian!
16:55He roared through gritted teeth.
17:01Vivian!
17:02He roared through gritted teeth,
17:03wishing he could tear her limb from limb.
17:04Vivian's body shook,
17:06her eyes instantly reddening
17:07as she desperately tried to explain.
17:09It's not...
17:10Charles, please listen to me!
17:12Explain?
17:13What is there left to explain?
17:15Charles kicked the chair aside,
17:16grabbed a champagne glass from the table,
17:18and smashed it on the ground.
17:19The sound of shattering glass exploded
17:21in the quiet wedding venue,
17:22sharp and piercing.
17:23You bitch!
17:24How dare you deceive me!
17:26I was your secret lover
17:28for thirty years,
17:30and you dare to cuckler me!
17:32Charles's eyes turned red,
17:33as if he had lost all reason.
17:35He rushed forward,
17:36grabbed Vivian's shoulders,
17:37and slapped her heart across the face.
17:39The crisp sound of the slap echoed
17:41throughout the entire hall.
17:42Vivian staggered backward,
17:44clutching her cheek,
17:45tears streaming from her eyes.
17:47And you dare to cry?
17:48You deceived me for thirty years!
17:51Cuckled me!
17:52And I've spent so much money
17:54on these bastards!
17:55Charles!
17:56Charles!
17:56Calm down!
17:56Someone rushed up to restrain Charles,
17:58but he had already gone completely mad.
17:59He shoved everyone aside
18:00and like an enraged feast,
18:02overturned the dining table.
18:03Plates, wine glasses,
18:04and flowers scattered everywhere.
18:05The scene was utter chaos.
18:06Chloe and Connor stood to the side,
18:08their faces ashen,
18:09their bodies trembling,
18:10completely at a loss.
18:11The guests erupted in an uproar,
18:12pulling out their phones
18:13to capture photos and videos.
18:15My god,
18:16how did this wedding turn into this?
18:18So Vivian's two children
18:19aren't even Charles's?
18:20This is incredible!
18:22It's the drama of the year!
18:23The entire wedding
18:24had completely spiraled out of control.
18:26Eventually,
18:27with security's intervention,
18:29Charles was forcibly pulled away.
18:30Vivian was dragged out
18:31of the hotel in disgrace,
18:32while Chloe and Connor
18:33fled in terror.
18:34The wedding had become
18:35a complete joke.
18:36I stood among the crowd,
18:37still holding half a glass of champagne,
18:39quietly savoring everything.
18:40The wedding had become
18:41a complete joke,
18:42and I had finally waited
18:43for this day.
18:47Wedding videos were uploaded online
18:49and quickly shot to the top
18:51of trending topics.
18:52Topics like
18:53paternity truth revealed at wedding,
18:55ex-wife's calm counterattack
18:56against cheaters,
18:57and child-free husband cuckolded
18:59for 30 years exploded
19:00across the internet.
19:01Charles had become
19:02a complete pariah.
19:03Wherever he went,
19:04there were pointing fingers
19:06and mocking jeers.
19:07He valued his face
19:08above all else.
19:09His reputation was
19:10the most important thing
19:11in his life.
19:11Now,
19:12his dignity had been
19:13completely shattered,
19:14turning him into a laughingstock
19:16known across the entire country.
19:18And I,
19:18on the contrary,
19:19had become the object
19:20of everyone's sympathy.
19:22Stella is so pitiful.
19:23To protect her husband's dignity,
19:25she took the blame herself,
19:26and then was treated like this.
19:28She's the truly good woman.
19:30She endured for 30 years
19:32and still showed the scumbag
19:34some dignity.
19:35Vivian is the truly ruthless one.
19:36She tricked Charles
19:37into raising bastards
19:38for 30 years
19:39and almost swallowed
19:40his entire fortune.
19:42Public opinion
19:43had completely turned around,
19:44but none of this
19:45mattered to me anymore.
19:46What mattered more
19:47was how this farce would end.
19:49After the wedding,
19:50Charles locked himself
19:51in his former home
19:51and hadn't stepped outside
19:52for three full days.
19:53He smashed everything
19:54in the house,
19:55coffee table,
19:56TV,
19:57faces.
19:57The place was a complete mess,
19:59but after the destruction,
20:00he sat alone on the sofa,
20:02staring blankly
20:03at a family portrait
20:04hanging on the wall.
20:05It was a photo of him,
20:06Vivian,
20:06Chloe,
20:07and Connor,
20:07the four of them.
20:08In the photo,
20:09he was smiling happily,
20:10as if he owned
20:11the whole world.
20:12Now looking at it again,
20:13he only felt the irony.
20:18He picked up the frame
20:19and smashed it onto the ground.
20:20Glass shattered.
20:21The photo splintered
20:22into pieces.
20:23Fake.
20:24It's all fake.
20:25He held his head,
20:26curled up on the floor,
20:27like a helpless child.
20:28He had lost everything
20:30while I was just beginning
20:31my new life.
20:35After the wedding,
20:36my life returned to peace.
20:37No,
20:38it was calmer and freer
20:39than before.
20:39I started doing things
20:40I truly enjoyed.
20:42I went to several art exhibitions,
20:44attended concerts,
20:44and enrolled in a pottery class.
20:46My friends laughed at me.
20:49You're living more freely
20:50than young people now.
20:52I smiled without saying a word.
20:54Actually,
20:55they had forgotten
20:55that I should have been
20:56living this way
20:57when I was young.
20:58It's just that back then,
20:59I had poured all my energy
21:00into Charles and the family.
21:01Now I finally had the chance
21:02to live for myself.
21:03One day,
21:04my mother called,
21:05her voice carrying
21:05a hint of relief.
21:08Stella,
21:08you seem different lately.
21:10Different?
21:11Yes,
21:12more energetic
21:13than before.
21:14As if
21:15you've let go of something.
21:16I smiled softly.
21:17Yes,
21:17I had let go.
21:18I had let go of the self
21:19that endured grievances
21:20to protect a man's dignity.
21:21I had let go of the foolish notion
21:22that endurance would bring happiness.
21:24I had let go of the man named Charles.
21:25Mom,
21:26I've made up my mind.
21:27About what?
21:29I want to donate my eggs.
21:31There was a long silence
21:32on the other end of the line.
21:33Have you thought this through?
21:35I have.
21:36My voice was firm.
21:38Since the eggs are still there,
21:39rather than keeping them frozen forever,
21:41I might as well help people
21:43who want children
21:43but can't have them.
21:45You.
21:46Always thinking of others.
21:48I smiled without denying it.
21:49Letting go of the past.
21:50Donating eggs to help others.
21:52My life is starting anew.
21:54Meanwhile,
21:55Charles' days grew more unbearable by the day.
21:57Vivian had been thrown out of the house
21:59and Chloe and Connor
22:00no longer acknowledged him as their father.
22:02After all,
22:03everything in the video was crystal clear.
22:05They weren't Charles' children
22:06but Vivian's illegitimate children
22:08with another man.
22:09They left with Vivian,
22:10not even glancing back at Charles.
22:12Let's go.
22:12He's not our father.
22:14Chloe said coldly.
22:15Charles sat alone in the empty house,
22:17suddenly feeling a loneliness
22:18unlike anything he'd ever experienced.
22:21He had once believed that having Vivian
22:23and two children meant
22:24he had a real family.
22:25But now he realized this family
22:27had never belonged to him.
22:28He himself had been deceived by Vivian
22:29for a full 30 years.
22:31He opened his phone and saw news about me.
22:33The headline Stella decides to donate eggs
22:35to help infertile families jumped out at him.
22:37He stared at the screen,
22:38his fingers trembling slightly.
22:40The woman who had borne his shame for 30 years
22:42to protect his dignity
22:43was now doing something even more meaningful.
22:46And what about him?
22:47He had nothing left.
22:48No family,
22:49no children,
22:50no dignity.
22:50He had lost everything.
22:52Charles put down his phone,
22:53leaned back on the sofa,
22:54and closed his eyes.
22:55Images from 30 years ago flooded his mind.
22:57Back then,
22:58we were still young,
22:59building our careers together,
23:00planning our future.
23:02Stella when we're old,
23:03let's travel the world.
23:04Just the two of us,
23:05he had once said with a smile.
23:06Sure, it's a promise.
23:07I had agreed without hesitation,
23:09but he had broken that promise.
23:11It wasn't that I wasn't willing
23:12to grow old with him.
23:13It was that he chose betrayal first.
23:14A tear slid from the corner of Charles' eye.
23:17He regretted it,
23:18but there's no medicine for regret in this world.
23:23After hesitating for a long time,
23:25Charles finally dialed my number.
23:26The phone rang for a long time
23:28before I answered.
23:29Hello?
23:31Stella, it's me.
23:32I was silent for a few seconds,
23:34then spoke calmly.
23:35Is something the matter?
23:36I...
23:36I want to see you.
23:39I chuckled.
23:40Charles,
23:41do you think there's anything
23:42left to say between us?
23:43I know I was wrong.
23:45His voice was hoarse.
23:46Stella,
23:46I truly know I was wrong.
23:47I said nothing.
23:48I know you're doing well now,
23:50and I know you don't want to see me,
23:52but I still want to tell you
23:54I'm sorry,
23:55face to face.
23:56I repeat it,
23:57my tone indifferent.
23:58Charles,
23:58it's been 30 years.
24:00You're telling me sorry now?
24:01Don't you think it's a little too late?
24:04I know it's late,
24:05but...
24:05I cut him off.
24:06Charles,
24:06you chose betrayal,
24:07so you bear the consequences.
24:09That was your choice.
24:11There was a long silence on the other end.
24:13Stella,
24:14if we hadn't divorced,
24:15would you have forgiven me?
24:16I didn't answer,
24:17because I didn't know the answer myself.
24:20Or rather,
24:21this question no longer needed an answer.
24:23Charles,
24:23live your life well.
24:24Those were my final words before hanging up.
24:29Live your life well.
24:31This was the last thing I could give him.
24:36The egg donation process was more complicated than I had imagined.
24:39It required a series of physical examinations,
24:41psychological evaluations,
24:43and legal procedures.
24:44But I walked through each step with steadiness.
24:46The doctor told me my egg quality was excellent.
24:48Even after being frozen for so many years,
24:50their viability remained very high.
24:52Mrs. Stella,
24:53your eggs are extremely valuable.
24:55They can help many families realize their dreams.
24:57I smiled.
24:59Valuable.
25:00I had once thought these eggs were the fruit of my love with Charles.
25:03The hope for our future children.
25:05But now,
25:06they had become a gift to help strangers.
25:08Perhaps this was better.
25:09At least they would no longer be bound by Charles' name.
25:12After news of my egg donation spread,
25:14many people started paying attention to me.
25:17The media wanted to interview me,
25:18asking why I was doing this.
25:20I simply answered indifferently.
25:22Because I have the ability to help others.
25:25It's that simple.
25:26And what about you and Mr. Charles?
25:28Do you hate him?
25:29The reporter pressed.
25:30I thought for a moment and said,
25:32I don't hate him.
25:33But I don't love him either.
25:35He was part of my life,
25:37but that's in the past.
25:38The reporter seemed somewhat disappointed by my answer,
25:40but I didn't care.
25:41I didn't need others to define my emotions.
25:44After the egg donation,
25:45I decided to travel.
25:46The round-the-world trip I had planned with Charles.
25:48Although I couldn't complete it with him,
25:50I could do it alone.
25:51My first stop was Paris.
25:52Standing beneath the Eiffel Tower,
25:54watching the sunset slowly descend,
25:55I felt a peace unlike anything I had ever experienced.
25:58This city had once been a dream destination for Charles and me.
26:01Now I had come alone,
26:02but I didn't feel lonely.
26:04Instead,
26:04I felt that this was truly my own moment.
26:06Without Charles,
26:07without the constraints of that marriage,
26:09I could finally be my true self.
26:11During my days in Paris,
26:12I visited the Louvre,
26:14walked along the Seine,
26:15and tasted authentic French pastries.
26:17Every day was fulfilling and joyful.
26:18Traveling alone,
26:19freedom alone,
26:20I have finally become myself again.
26:22During my travels,
26:24I occasionally received news from back home.
26:26I heard that after being thrown out of the Chan household,
26:29Vivian's life hadn't been easy.
26:30She had once relied on Charles' money to live.
26:32Now without a source of income,
26:34she could only make ends meet by doing odd jobs.
26:37Chloe and Connor no longer had anything to do with her either.
26:40After all,
26:40once the video was exposed,
26:42everyone knew the truth.
26:43They weren't Charles' children,
26:45but Vivian's illegitimate children with another man.
26:47This news was undoubtedly a devastating blow to Chloe and Connor.
26:51They had always believed they were of the Chan bloodline.
26:53Proud of it all these years,
26:54only to discover they had no connection to the Chan family whatsoever.
26:59Chloe confronted Vivian.
27:01Mom,
27:01what exactly is going on?
27:03Don't believe those videos.
27:05They're all fake.
27:06Vivian was still trying to deny it.
27:07Mom,
27:07the video is crystal clear.
27:09You told someone else we were Charles' children
27:12and said you were going to swing his property.
27:14I was just...
27:16Enough.
27:16Chloe cut her off.
27:17I never want to hear your lies again.
27:19Chloe and Connor moved out of Vivian's house,
27:20found jobs,
27:21and started new lives.
27:23And Vivian curled up alone in a dilapidated rental apartment,
27:26crying day after day.
27:27Her former elegance and nobility had long since vanished.
27:30Mom,
27:31do you think Stella is feeling pretty pleased with herself right now?
27:34Chloe had once asked Vivian.
27:35Vivian didn't answer,
27:37because she knew I was no longer an enemy they needed to worry about.
27:42I was living too well,
27:43so well that they didn't even have the right to be jealous.
27:49After leaving Paris,
27:51I flew to Kyoto.
27:52This ancient city had a completely different charm from Paris.
27:55I strolled along the bamboo grove path in Arashima,
27:58listening to the rustling of bamboo leaves in the wind,
28:01feeling exceptionally peaceful.
28:03Here,
28:03there was no Charles,
28:05no Vivian,
28:06none of those troubling memories from the past,
28:08only myself.
28:08I stayed at a traditional Japanese inn,
28:11rising early each morning to soak in the hot springs
28:13and savor exquisite kaiseki cuisine.
28:16The innkeeper was a kind middle-aged woman.
28:18Seeing me alone,
28:19she couldn't help asking,
28:20Ma'am,
28:21are you traveling alone?
28:23Yes.
28:24I answered with a smile.
28:27Doesn't traveling alone feel lonely?
28:29I thought for a moment and said,
28:31Sometimes,
28:32but more often it's a kind of freedom.
28:34The innkeeper nodded,
28:36showing an understanding smile.
28:38You're right.
28:39Freedom is more precious than anything.
28:41During my days in Kyoto,
28:42I also visited Kaya Mizudara and drew a fortune slip.
28:45The fortune read,
28:46Withered trees meet spring.
28:47Old matters become empty.
28:48The road ahead is bright.
28:50Freedom lies within the heart.
28:51I looked at the fortune and couldn't help but smile.
28:53Withered trees meet spring.
28:54Wasn't this exactly my current state?
28:56After 30 years of winter,
28:57I had finally welcomed my own spring.
28:59I carefully put away the fortune slip into my wallet.
29:02Old matters become empty.
29:03The road ahead is bright.
29:05These words,
29:06I would always keep in my heart.
29:07On the last night before leaving Kyoto,
29:09I sat in the inn's courtyard,
29:11gazing at the star-filled sky.
29:13My phone rang.
29:14It was an unfamiliar number.
29:15I hesitated for a moment but answered anyway.
29:17Hello?
29:18Stella,
29:19it's me.
29:20It was Charles' voice.
29:21He had come looking for me again.
29:29Charles,
29:29how did you get this number?
29:30I frowned.
29:31I asked your friend.
29:32His voice was hoarse.
29:33Stella,
29:33I want to see you.
29:34See me?
29:35I gave a cold laugh.
29:36Charles,
29:37what is there left for us to see?
29:39I know I was wrong,
29:40and I know you don't forgive me,
29:41but I really want to talk to you face to face.
29:44I was silent for a moment,
29:45then finally sighed.
29:47Fine.
29:48I'm in Kyoto.
29:49Leaving tomorrow.
29:51I know.
29:52I'm already here.
29:52I was stunned.
29:54He was already here?
29:55Where are you?
29:56I asked.
29:56Downstairs at your inn.
29:57I walked to the window,
29:58pulled back the curtain,
29:59and sure enough,
30:00saw a familiar figure standing below.
30:01Charles was wearing a dark overcoat,
30:03carrying a suitcase.
30:04He looked much thinner and older than before.
30:06I hesitated,
30:07but eventually went downstairs to meet him.
30:09In the inn's tea room,
30:10we sat facing each other.
30:11Charles looked at me,
30:12his eyes complicated.
30:13Stella,
30:13you've changed.
30:15Have I?
30:15I picked up my teacup and took a sip.
30:18People always change.
30:19You would never have treated me like this before.
30:21His voice carried bitterness.
30:24The old you was always gentle and considerate,
30:26never willing to embarrass me.
30:28The old me was a fool.
30:29I put down my teacup,
30:30my tone calm.
30:31Charles,
30:32you betrayed me for 30 years,
30:33and now you come to me with this?
30:35Don't you find it ridiculous?
30:37Charles lowered his head,
30:38his hands tightly clasped.
30:40I know I don't deserve to ask for your forgiveness,
30:42but I truly regret it.
30:45I scoffed.
30:46Regret?
30:47Do you regret losing Vivian and the two children?
30:50Or do you regret being laughed at by the whole world?
30:54Charles' face turned pale.
30:56He opened his mouth but couldn't speak.
30:59Charles,
31:00you don't need to answer me.
31:01I stood up,
31:02looking down at him.
31:03Because your answer no longer matters to me.
31:07I turned to leave,
31:08but Charles suddenly stood up and grabbed my wrist.
31:10Stella,
31:11give me a chance.
31:13Let's start over,
31:14please.
31:14His voice was pleading,
31:16his eyes full of desperation.
31:17I stopped and turned to look at him.
31:19This man I had once deeply loved now
31:21only felt like a stranger to me.
31:23Charles,
31:24I gently freed my hand from his.
31:26My tone calm yet firm.
31:28Some roads,
31:29once traveled,
31:30can never be retraced.
31:32We can.
31:33He said urgently.
31:33I know you hate me,
31:34but I can change.
31:35I can make it up to you.
31:36I can-
31:37You can't.
31:38I cut him off.
31:40Charles,
31:40you can't make it up.
31:4130 years of betrayal
31:42cannot be erased by a single sorry.
31:45His eyes reddened,
31:45his voice trembling.
31:46Stella,
31:47do you really not love me anymore?
31:49I looked at him,
31:50not a single ripple in my heart.
31:51Love?
31:52I shook my head gently.
31:53Charles,
31:54I loved the you from 30 years ago,
31:56not the you of today.
31:57That you,
31:58is already dead.
31:59Charles' body swayed,
32:00as if he had been struck hard.
32:01He released my hand,
32:03stepped back,
32:04looking as if he had aged 10 years in an instant.
32:06I understand.
32:06His voice was hoarse and low.
32:08Stella,
32:09I wish you happiness.
32:10I didn't answer,
32:12just nodded faintly,
32:13then turned and left.
32:14The moment I walked out of the tea room,
32:16I let out a long breath.
32:1730 years of entanglement had finally come to a close.
32:20I didn't look back,
32:21because I knew there were even more beautiful sights
32:23ahead waiting for me.
32:24I returned to my room,
32:26packed my luggage,
32:27and prepared for my next destination.
32:29My phone rang with a message from a friend.
32:31Stella,
32:31Charles came looking for you again,
32:33don't pay him any attention,
32:35he's just a scumbag.
32:36I smiled and replied.
32:38Don't worry,
32:39I've already let go.
32:40Letting go is not forgiving,
32:42but no longer being bound by the past.
32:44I dragged my suitcase,
32:46walked out of the inn,
32:47and strode forward into the morning sunlight.
32:49A new journey had begun.
32:51My brand new life.
32:56After leaving Kyoto,
32:58I went to many more places.
32:59Rome,
33:00Barcelona,
33:01Sydney,
33:01New York.
33:02Every city left its mark with my footsteps.
33:04I learned to eat alone,
33:06watch movies alone,
33:07go shopping alone.
33:08Things I once thought required two people to do.
33:11It turned out I could do perfectly well alone.
33:13One afternoon in Paris,
33:15I sat at a cafe by the seine,
33:16watching the passing crowds.
33:18Suddenly,
33:19a little girl ran over,
33:20looking at me with big wide eyes.
33:24Ma'am,
33:25you're so pretty.
33:26She said in her childish voice.
33:28I was taken aback,
33:29then smiled.
33:31Thank you,
33:32little one.
33:32Her mother walked over,
33:34and apologized with a smile.
33:35I'm sorry,
33:36my daughter is too playfee.
33:37It's fine,
33:38she's adorable.
33:39The little girl held her mother's hand,
33:40looked back at me,
33:41and suddenly shouted,
33:42Mommy,
33:43that lady has stars in her eyes.
33:46I was stunned.
33:47Stars?
33:48I subconsciously touched my own face.
33:50Perhaps I really had changed.
33:52No longer the woman who endured grievances
33:54to protect her husband's dignity.
33:56No longer the fool who took the blame
33:58for someone else's betrayal.
33:59The current me had light in my eyes
34:01and dreams in my heart.
34:02This was probably what people called
34:04rebirth.
34:05Light in my eyes,
34:06dreams in my heart.
34:08This is my rebirth.
34:10After the trip,
34:11I returned home.
34:12There was new progress
34:12on the egg donation.
34:13The hospital told me my eggs
34:15had successfully helped
34:16three infertile couples conceive.
34:17Mrs. Stella,
34:18you are truly remarkable.
34:20The doctor said gratefully.
34:21I smiled.
34:22It's nothing remarkable,
34:24just doing what I should.
34:26Actually,
34:27donating eggs
34:28wasn't just about helping others.
34:29It was also about
34:30making peace with my own regrets.
34:32Although I never had my own children,
34:34my eggs could help others
34:35realize their dream
34:36of becoming parents.
34:37This was probably
34:38the best possible ending.
34:40One day,
34:40I received a letter.
34:41It was from a mother
34:42who had received my eggs.
34:44Dear Ms. Stella,
34:45I don't know what words
34:46to use to express my gratitude.
34:48My husband and I
34:49have been married for 15 years
34:51and have never had children.
34:53We tried every method
34:54without success.
34:55Just when we were about
34:56to give up,
34:57we received news
34:58from the hospital
34:59that someone was willing
35:00to donate eggs.
35:01That person was you.
35:03Now,
35:04I am pregnant
35:04and the doctor says
35:05the baby is very healthy.
35:07I don't know how to thank you.
35:08I just want to tell you
35:10that you have given
35:10our family new hope.
35:12Thank you, Ms. Stella.
35:13You are the great benefactor
35:15of our entire family.
35:16After reading the letter,
35:18my eyes welled up with tears.
35:19It turned out
35:20that helping others
35:21truly could bring happiness
35:22to oneself.
35:23I carefully put the letter
35:24away in a drawer.
35:25This touching moment,
35:27I would forever treasure
35:28in my heart.
35:29Helping others
35:30is also healing oneself.
35:34After returning home,
35:36I started reconnecting
35:37with old friends.
35:38Because of the whole situation
35:39with Charles,
35:40I had grown distant
35:41from many people.
35:42Now,
35:42I wanted to pick up
35:43those relationships again.
35:44The first person
35:45I reached out to
35:45was my best friend, Linda.
35:46When she saw me,
35:48she was so excited
35:49she almost cried.
35:51Stella!
35:52You're finally back!
35:53I thought you'd never
35:55speak to me again!
35:56How could that be?
35:58I laughed and hugged her.
36:00I just went traveling
36:01for a while
36:02to clear my head.
36:04So how are you now?
36:05Has Charles caused you
36:07any more trouble?
36:08No,
36:08it's completely over
36:10between us.
36:11Linda breathed
36:11a sigh of relief.
36:13That's good.
36:14Stella,
36:14you deserve someone better.
36:16Someone better?
36:17I smiled.
36:19Linda,
36:20I don't need anyone else
36:22to define my worth
36:23right now.
36:24I am enough.
36:25Linda looked at me,
36:26surprise flashing
36:27in her eyes,
36:27then relief.
36:28Stella,
36:29you really have changed.
36:30Become better,
36:31stronger.
36:32Have I?
36:32Maybe.
36:33I picked up my coffee.
36:33After going through so much,
36:35you've got to learn something.
36:36So what are your plans next?
36:37Keep living, of course.
36:39I smiled.
36:39Work, travel,
36:40do what I love.
36:41What about love?
36:42Linda winked.
36:43Not considering finding
36:44someone new?
36:46I shook my head.
36:48Not for now.
36:49At this point in my life,
36:51I just want to love myself well.
36:53Linda laughed.
36:55Well said.
36:56Cheers to our new era.
36:58We clinked cups,
36:59the aroma of coffee
37:00filling the air.
37:01In this moment,
37:02I felt warmth.
37:03Not because of romance,
37:04but because of friendship.
37:06Not because of dependence,
37:07but because of independence.
37:09I finally understood
37:10that true happiness
37:11doesn't come from others,
37:12but from oneself.
37:15After returning home,
37:16I didn't stay idle.
37:18I started replanning my career.
37:19In my youth,
37:20I had given up
37:21many opportunities for Charles.
37:23Now,
37:23I would pick them up
37:24one by one.
37:25I opened a small
37:26floral design studio.
37:27This was a dream I had
37:28in my youth
37:28that I never got to realize.
37:30Now,
37:30I finally had the chance
37:31to make it a reality.
37:32The studio wasn't big,
37:33but it was decorated warmly.
37:35Every morning,
37:36I would go to the flower market
37:37to select the freshest blooms.
37:39Then back at the studio,
37:40I would trim stems,
37:41match colors,
37:42and create beautiful bouquets.
37:44When customers came,
37:46I would recommend
37:47the most suitable flowers
37:48based on their needs.
37:49Your mom will definitely
37:50love this bouquet.
37:51These roses for your girlfriend,
37:53guaranteed to make her
37:54feel your love.
37:55Watching the satisfied
37:56smiles of my customers,
37:57my heart filled
37:58with a sense of accomplishment.
38:00Linda,
38:00a special customer
38:01walked into the studio.
38:02Come on in.
38:02A young woman,
38:03holding a baby in her arms.
38:05Hello.
38:06She said with a smile.
38:06I'd like to order a bouquet.
38:08Certainly.
38:09Who is it for?
38:12For myself.
38:13Her eyes sparkled.
38:15I just had a baby
38:16and want to treat myself.
38:17I was taken aback,
38:19then smiled.
38:20Congratulations,
38:21that's the best gift of all.
38:22I carefully arranged
38:23a bouquet of pink carnations
38:25and white baby's breath for her.
38:26She held the flowers,
38:28held her baby,
38:29smiling so happily.
38:30In that moment,
38:31I suddenly felt
38:33that my choice
38:33had been the right one.
38:34Although I didn't have
38:35a child of my own,
38:36I could bring happiness
38:37to others in other ways.
38:39This was probably
38:40the meaning of life.
38:41Bringing happiness
38:42to others
38:42is also the meaning of life.
38:44Time flies.
38:45In the blink of an eye,
38:47three years had passed.
38:48My floral studio
38:49had grown bigger and bigger,
38:50now with three branch locations.
38:52My name had also started
38:53to gain recognition
38:54in the industry.
38:55Many people didn't know
38:56what storms this elegant
38:57and composed florist
38:59had once weathered.
39:00And I no longer spoke of them.
39:01Because all of that
39:02was in the past.
39:03The present me
39:04only wanted to look forward.
39:05One day,
39:06I received a postcard
39:08from Alaska.
39:09No signature,
39:09just one sentence.
39:11May the rest of your life
39:12be happy.
39:12I knew who sent it.
39:14But I didn't write back.
39:15Some goodbyes
39:16don't need a response.
39:17I slipped the postcard
39:19into that fortune slip.
39:20Withered trees
39:21meet spring.
39:22Old matters become empty.
39:23The road ahead is bright.
39:25Freedom lies within the heart.
39:27These words,
39:28I had always kept in my heart.
39:30Charles,
39:30Vivian,
39:31Chloe,
39:31Connor,
39:32they had all become
39:33passersby in my life.
39:34And I had finally become
39:35the protagonist of my own story.
39:37The sun was setting.
39:38I sat by the studio window,
39:40watching the passing crowds outside.
39:42Holding a cup of hot tea,
39:43my heart felt a peace
39:44unlike anything before.
39:46My phone rang.
39:47It was a message from the hospital.
39:49Miss Stella,
39:50your donated eggs
39:51have successfully helped
39:52a fifth couple
39:53welcome their baby.
39:54Thank you for your great love.
39:56I smiled.
39:57My eyes were a bit moist.
39:58But my heart was full of happiness.
40:00Perhaps this was the best possible ending.
40:02I didn't have children,
40:03but I had helped many people
40:04realize their dreams.
40:05I didn't have romance,
40:06but I had true freedom.
40:08I didn't have a family,
40:09but I had created a world of my own.
40:11In this world,
40:12there were flowers,
40:13sunshine,
40:14laughter,
40:14and hope.
40:15That was enough.
40:16I raised my teacup
40:17and took a gentle sip.
40:18Outside the window,
40:19the afterglow of the sunset
40:20spilled across my face,
40:22warm and gentle.
40:23My life has only just begun.
