00:01I took pictures of them in bed and blasted them online for everyone to see.
00:06Vanessa could not take the humiliation and jumped from the third floor.
00:10She was fine.
00:11Adrian hated me for it and had his men drag me to the rooftop.
00:16He choked me and forced half my body over the railing.
00:21If you don't apologize to Vanessa, I'll push you off.
00:24It finally hit me that I should not cling to someone who no longer loved me.
00:28I'm sorry. This is all my fault. I won't bother you two again.
00:33There are three million on this card. Take it and disappear from my life for good.
00:38I had no choice but to agree.
00:40Just as I was about to leave with my mother, Vanessa refused to let me go.
00:45She had people force me onto a balcony.
00:47I fell from the eighth floor and ended up in a coma.
00:51When I woke up, I learned that my mother had even fallen into loan shark debt to pay my hospital
00:57bills.
00:57In the end, she died from overwork and exhaustion.
01:01I had to hand out flyers on the street to pay off my debt.
01:05A black Bentley stopped in front of me.
01:07Adrian was inside.
01:09Our restaurant just opened and we're running a special today.
01:12Stop by sometime, sir.
01:14Before I could pull my hand back, he grabbed my wrist.
01:17Evelyn, you hid from me all these years.
01:19And this is what you've become?
01:21I glanced at my watch. The street was almost empty and most of my shift was already gone.
01:26But I still had a thick stack of flyers left.
01:29If I did not finish them, my pay would be docked.
01:33Sir, could you let go of me first?
01:35I still haven't finished handing these out.
01:37Adrian's grip around my wrist tightened.
01:40Evelyn, stop acting pitiful.
01:42You took my money, hid for years, and now you show up in front of me again.
01:45It's obvious what you're after.
01:47In his eyes, I was already the kind of woman who would do anything for money.
01:52You're overthinking it.
01:53I've been handing out flyers here for almost a month.
01:56I didn't suddenly show up.
01:57So sorry for this understanding.
02:00Can you let me go now?
02:01My boss will dock my pay if I don't finish.
02:04After a long while, he slowly closed his eyes.
02:07Evelyn, you never let anyone see you looking this beaten down.
02:10And now, can't you find a job with a little dignity?
02:14It's fine. I'm just handing out flyers.
02:17What's undignified about that?
02:19People have to grow up.
02:20It's hotter than cleaning hotel rooms, but three hours pays $50.
02:25I'm grateful enough.
02:27He stared at my sunburned face.
02:29You're giving up your dignity for $50?
02:31Back then, so many rich men threw money at you, and you would not even look at them.
02:36And now you've let yourself fall this far?
02:39Just then, my phone suddenly rang.
02:42And he finally let go of my hand.
02:44It was a debt collector calling.
02:46I know.
02:47I already have the money ready.
02:50Don't worry. I won't delay it again.
02:52The call ended.
02:54You borrow from loanharks?
02:56Evelyn, didn't I give you $3 million before you left?
02:59It should have been enough to pay them back.
03:02I gave a bitter smile.
03:04So Adrian had no idea Vanessa had pushed me off the rooftop and taken the card.
03:09Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Blackburn.
03:12But that money belonged to you.
03:14How could I use your money to pay my family's debt?
03:18I'm running out of time.
03:19I need to keep handing out flyers.
03:21I won't stay and catch up with you.
03:22Please excuse me.
03:23After that, I held the flyers and walked toward the crowd.
03:27When I handed a flyer to a middle-aged woman, she shoved me away.
03:31I took a bad fall and hurt my knee.
03:34Are you blind?
03:35You're dressed like that and you still dare come near me?
03:38Do you know how much this outfit costs?
03:40If you ruin it, can you afford to pay for it?
03:44I'm sorry.
03:45I'll be more careful next time.
03:47The woman cursed as she walked away.
03:50I let out a breath.
03:51I picked up the flyers and climbed back to my feet.
03:54A hand suddenly grabbed my wrist.
03:57Enough, Evelyn.
03:59How much longer are you going to degrade yourself like this?
04:02Are you a beggar?
04:05For a mirsely $50 you let people push you around like that?
04:09And you still did not fight back?
04:11I felt helpless.
04:13Mr. Blackwood, $50 may mean nothing to you, but to me it is a week of groceries.
04:20There is no need to make a scene over something like this.
04:23No need?
04:25As long as you ask.
04:26I can give you as much money as you want.
04:28Can you stop being so pathetic?
04:30You were admitted to Hawthorne University at 16.
04:34Every research project you joined won awards.
04:37Have you forgotten all of that?
04:38How could I forget?
04:39At 16, even after I caught my father having an affair, I still earned a full scholarship
04:45to Hawthorne University.
04:46Back then, almost nothing could hold me back.
04:49But everything changed when I met Vanessa Hayes.
04:52She had no parents and paid her tuition by working part-time jobs.
04:56So when she nearly dropped out, I paid her tuition with my research prize money
05:01and brought her home for the holidays.
05:03We became best friends.
05:05But she stole the man I loved.
05:07I was 19 when the university sent me overseas as an exchange student.
05:12I knew no one there and was often bullied by others.
05:16It was Adrian who protected me when I was at my most helpless.
05:20He waited after class, picked me up every morning, and kept unwanted men away.
05:26We naturally fell in love.
05:28But one day, Adrian and I got into a car accident on the road.
05:32A shard of glass flew toward his eyes.
05:35I raised my hand to block it without thinking.
05:37The glass cut deep into my wrist.
05:40After that, I could no longer enter a lab, operate precision instruments again.
05:45Adrian swore he would never marry anyone but me.
05:49I brought Adrian to meet Vanessa.
05:51I thought my best friend would bless us.
05:54But I was so wrong.
05:56Vanessa was in the hospital.
05:57And after I paid her bills, I came back to find her and Adrian naked in bed together.
06:03Vanessa hid in Adrian's arms, crying and saying she was sorry.
06:08But Adrian looked more relieved.
06:10Evelyn, since you saw it, I won't hide it anymore.
06:13Vanessa and I are together.
06:14Let's end this cleanly.
06:15End this cleanly?
06:17How dare the people who betrayed me say that?
06:20So I blasted those pictures online.
06:22And what I got in return was Adrian and Vanessa's revenge.
06:26After I woke up, I learned the rest from a few relatives.
06:30My mother went to find both Adrian and Vanessa.
06:33She got on her knees and begged them to lend her money.
06:37Your vicious daughter deserves death.
06:39My mother finally collapsed from exhaustion and died.
06:43So I never expected Adrian to come to me himself.
06:47Mr. Blackwood, you're too kind.
06:49But we have nothing to do with each other.
06:52How could I take your money?
06:54My life is hard now, but at least my debt is almost paid off.
06:58That gives me something to look forward to.
07:00Adrian stared at me stubbornly.
07:02Evelyn, you call the life you're having now hope?
07:05I know you still hate me.
07:07What I did back then was too cruel.
07:10Please, let me help you.
07:11Consider it compensation.
07:13No need, Mr. Blackwood.
07:15It's all in the past.
07:16I was young back then, and I took love too seriously.
07:20I really should not have.
07:21Should not have?
07:24Evelyn, you regret it, don't you?
07:26You regret loving me?
07:28I've thought about it so many times over the years.
07:30If Vanessa had not jumped back then, I would not have pitied her so much in that moment.
07:35And I wouldn't have married her so easily.
07:37You regret it, but you have no idea how much I regret it too.
07:41I kept thinking that if I ever saw you again, I would make it up to you.
07:44I went silent.
07:45Then I suddenly laughed.
07:47There's nothing worth bringing up anymore.
07:49Mr. Blackwood, you really should not let your wife hear you say that.
07:52She would be heartbroken.
07:54You chose your road.
07:56Keep walking.
07:57Don't look back.
07:58Adrian heard the meaning in my words.
08:00Even when he lowered his head, he still could not stand being rejected again and again.
08:07Evelyn, can you stop being so ungrateful?
08:10Look at yourself now.
08:11You look worn out, and no man would want you like this.
08:15And I never said I would divorce Vanessa.
08:18We have a child together.
08:19For old times' sake, I can pay off your debt and buy you a place.
08:23You can live there quietly, as long as you listen to me.
08:26The more I listened, the more uncomfortable I felt.
08:30Mr. Blackwood, what exactly do you mean?
08:32Evelyn, don't you understand?
08:33I just want to treat you well and make up for what I did back then.
08:37It finally hit me that I should not cling to someone who no longer loved me.
08:42I'm sorry.
08:43This is all my fault.
08:45I won't bother you two again.
08:47There are three million on this card.
08:49Take it and disappear from my life for good.
08:51I had no choice but to agree.
08:54Just as I was about to leave with my mother, Vanessa refused to let me go.
08:58She had people force me onto a balcony.

20:25We became best friends.
20:26But she stole the man I loved.
20:28I was 19 when the university sent me overseas as an exchange student.
20:33I knew no one there and was often bullied by others.
20:37It was Adrian who protected me when I was at my most helpless.
20:41He waited after class, picked me up every morning, and kept unwanted men away.
20:47We naturally fell in love.
20:49But one day, Adrian and I got into a car accident on the road.
20:53A shard of glass flew toward his eyes.
20:56I raised my hand to block it without thinking.
20:59The glass cut deep into my wrist.
21:01After that, I could no longer enter a lab,
21:04operate precision instruments again.
21:07Adrian swore he would never marry anyone but me.
21:10I brought Adrian to meet Vanessa.
21:12I thought my best friend would bless us.
21:15But I was so wrong.
21:17Vanessa was in the hospital.
21:18And after I paid her bills,
21:20I came back to find her and Adrian naked in bed together.
21:24Vanessa hid in Adrian's arms,
21:26crying and saying she was sorry.
21:29But Adrian looked more relieved.
21:31Evelyn, since you saw it, I won't hide it anymore.
21:34Vanessa and I are together.
21:35Let's end this cleanly.
21:36End this cleanly?
21:38How dare the people who betrayed me say that?
21:41So I blasted those pictures online.
21:43And what I got in return was Adrian and Vanessa's revenge.
21:47After I woke up, I learned the rest from a few relatives.
21:51My mother went to find both Adrian and Vanessa.
21:54She got on her knees and begged them to lend her money.
21:58Your vicious daughter deserves death.
22:00My mother finally collapsed from exhaustion and died.
22:04So I never expected Adrian to come to me himself.
22:08Mr. Blackwood, you're too kind.
22:10But we have nothing to do with each other.
22:13How could I take your money?
22:15My life is hard now, but at least my debt is almost paid off.
22:19That gives me something to look forward to.
22:21Adrian stared at me stubbornly.
22:23Evelyn, you call the life you're having now hope?
22:26I know you still hate me.
22:28What I did back then was too cruel.
22:31Please, let me help you.
22:33Consider it compensation.
22:34No need, Mr. Blackwood.
22:36It's all in the past.
22:37I was young back then, and I took love too seriously.
22:41I really should not have.
22:42Should not have?
22:45Evelyn, you regret it, don't you?
22:47You regret loving me?
22:49I've thought about it so many times over the years.
22:51If Vanessa had not jumped back then, I would not have pitied her so much in that moment.
22:56And I wouldn't have married her so easily.
22:58You regret it, but you have no idea how much I regret it too.
23:02I kept thinking that if I ever saw you again, I would make it up to you.
23:05I went silent.
23:06Then I suddenly laughed.
23:08There's nothing worth bringing up anymore.
23:10Mr. Blackwood, you really should not let your wife hear you say that.
23:13She would be heartbroken.
23:15You chose your road.
23:17Keep walking.
23:18Don't look back.
23:20Adrian heard the meaning in my words.
23:21Even when he lowered his head, he still could not stand being rejected again and again.
23:28Evelyn, can you stop being so ungrateful?
23:31Look at yourself now.
23:33You look worn out, and no man would want you like this.
23:36And I never said I would divorce Vanessa.
23:39We have a child together.
23:41For old times' sake, I can pay off your debt and buy you a place.
23:45You can live there quietly, as long as you listen to me.
23:47The more I listened, the more uncomfortable I felt.
23:51Mr. Blackwood, what exactly do you mean?
23:53Evelyn, don't you understand?
23:55I just want to treat you well and make up for what I did back then.
23:58It finally hit me that I should not cling to someone who no longer loved me.
24:03I'm sorry.
24:04I'm sorry.
24:05This is all my fault.
24:06I won't bother you two again.
24:08There are three million on this card.
24:10Take it and disappear from my life for good.
24:12I had no choice but to agree.
24:15Just as I was about to leave with my mother, Vanessa refused to let me go.
24:19She had people force me onto a balcony.
24:22I fell from the eighth floor and ended up in a coma.
24:25When I woke up, I learned that my mother had even fallen into loan shark debt to pay my hospital
24:31bills.
24:32In the end, she died from overwork and exhaustion.
24:36I had to hand out flyers on the street to pay off my debt.
24:39A black Bentley stopped in front of me.
24:42Adrian was inside.
24:44Our restaurant just opened and we're running a special today.
24:47Stop by sometime, sir.
24:48Before I could pull my hand back, he grabbed my wrist.
24:51Evelyn, you hid from me all these years.
24:54And this is what you've become?
24:55I glanced at my watch.
24:57The street was almost empty and most of my shift was already gone.
25:00But I still had a thick stack of flyers left.
25:03If I did not finish them, my pay would be docked.
25:07Sir, could you let go of me first?
25:09I still haven't finished handing these out.
25:13Adrian's grip around my wrist tightened.
25:15Evelyn, stop acting pitiful.
25:17You took my money, hid for years, and now you show up in front of me again.
25:21It's obvious what you're after.
25:22In his eyes, I was already the kind of woman who would do anything for money.
25:28You're overthinking it.
25:29I've been handing out flyers here for almost a month.
25:31I didn't suddenly show up.
25:33So sorry for this understanding.
25:35Can you let me go now?
25:37My boss will dock my pay if I don't finish.
25:39After a long while, he slowly closed his eyes.
25:43Evelyn, you never let anyone see you looking this beaten down.
25:45And now, can't you find a job with a little dignity?
25:50It's fine.
25:50I'm just handing out flyers.
25:52What's undignified about that?
25:54People have to grow up.
25:56It's hotter than cleaning hotel rooms, but three hours pays $50.
26:01I'm grateful enough.
26:02He stared at my sunburned face.
26:04You're giving up your dignity for $50?
26:07Back then, so many rich men threw money at you, and you would not even look at them.
26:11And now you've let yourself fall this far?
26:14Just then, my phone suddenly rang.
26:17And he finally let go of my hand.
26:19It was a debt collector calling.
26:22I know.
26:23I already have the money ready.
26:25Don't worry.
26:26I won't delay it again.
26:27The call ended.
26:30You borrow from loanharks?
26:33Evelyn, didn't I give you $3 million before you left?
26:36It should have been enough to pay them back.
26:38I gave a bitter smile.
26:40So Adrian had no idea Vanessa had pushed me off the rooftop and taken the card.
26:46Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Blackburn.
26:49But that money belonged to you.
26:50How could I use your money to pay my family's debt?
26:54I'm running out of time.
26:56I need to keep handing out flyers.
26:57I won't stay and catch up with you.
26:59Please excuse me.
27:00After that, I held the flyers and walked toward the crowd.
27:03When I handed a flyer to a middle-aged woman, she shoved me away.
27:07I took a bad fall and hurt my knee.
27:10Are you blind?
27:11You're dressed like that and you still dare come near me?
27:15Do you know how much this outfit costs?
27:17If you ruin it, can you afford to pay for it?
27:20I'm sorry.
27:21I'll be more careful next time.
27:23The woman cursed as she walked away.
27:26I let out a breath.
27:27I picked up the flyers and climbed back to my feet.
27:31A hand suddenly grabbed my wrist.
27:34Enough, Evelyn.
27:35Evelyn, how much longer are you going to degrade yourself like this?
27:39Are you a beggar?
27:41For a mere sleep, $50 you let people push you around like that?
27:46And you still did not fight back?
27:48I felt helpless.
27:50Mr. Blackwood, $50 may mean nothing to you.
27:54But to me, it is a week of groceries.
27:56There is no need to make a scene over something like this.
27:59No need?
28:01As long as you ask.
28:02I can give you as much money as you want.
28:05Can you stop being so pathetic?
28:07You were admitted to Hawthorne University at 16.
28:10Every research project you joined won awards.
28:13Have you forgotten all of that?
28:15How could I forget?
28:16At 16, even after I caught my father having an affair,
28:19I still earned a full scholarship to Hawthorne University.
28:23Back then, almost nothing could hold me back.
28:25But everything changed when I met Vanessa Hayes.
28:28She had no parents and paid her tuition by working part-time jobs.
28:33So when she nearly dropped out,
28:35I paid her tuition with my research prize money
28:37and brought her home for the holidays.
28:40We became best friends.
28:41But she stole the man I loved.
28:44I was 19 when the university sent me overseas as an exchange student.
28:48I knew no one there and was often bullied by others.
28:52It was Adrian who protected me when I was at my most helpless.
28:57He waited after class, picked me up every morning,
29:00and kept unwanted men away.
29:03We naturally fell in love.
29:05But one day, Adrian and I got into a car accident on the road.
29:09A shard of glass flew toward his eyes.
29:11I raised my hand to block it without thinking.
29:14The glass cut deep into my wrist.
29:16After that, I could no longer enter a lab,
29:19operate precision instruments again.
29:21Adrian swore he would never marry anyone but me.
29:26I brought Adrian to meet Vanessa.
29:28I thought my best friend would bless us.
29:30But I was so wrong.
29:33Vanessa was in the hospital.
29:35And after I paid her bills,
29:36I came back to find her and Adrian naked in bed together.
29:41Vanessa hid in Adrian's arms,
29:43crying and saying she was sorry.
29:45But Adrian looked more relieved.
29:47Evelyn, since you saw it, I won't hide it anymore.
29:50Vanessa and I are together.
29:52Let's end this cleanly.
29:53End this cleanly?
29:54How dare the people who betrayed me say that?
29:57So I blasted those pictures online.

30:14Your vicious daughter deserves death.
30:16My mother finally collapsed from exhaustion and died.
30:20So I never expected Adrian to come to me himself.
30:24Mr. Blackwood still hate me.
30:26What I did back then was too cruel.
30:29Please, let me help you.
30:31Consider it compensation.
30:33No need, Mr. Blackwood.
30:35It's all in the past.
30:36I was young back then and I took love too seriously.
30:40I really should not have.
30:41Should not have?
30:42I am a part of the work in this.
30:42So I had to help show you how it is.
30:42Go back in and meet you, and I thought that you have never been sent to you in a moment
30:42when you hear it.
