00:01Give it to me! You asked for it! My father and brother had preferred my sister
00:08over me since we were kids. In fact, they hated me.
00:16She is an unloved burden who even killed our mother! When I was bullied at a party,
00:24it was a mafia boss, Edwin Carlson, who stepped in. He saved me and announced
00:29right there in front of everyone that I was the woman he loved.
00:39Stephanie is the one I love. Anyone who dares to mess with her again will have to deal with me.
00:48Edwin bought a castle deep in the forest just for me. He filled the garden with my favorite tulips
00:55and held a grand wedding there that made headlines across the country.
01:00For a while, I became the woman everyone envied.
01:09Seven months pregnant, I attended my father's birthday party. But that night, a sudden fire broke out.
01:27Come and save me quickly. Kelsey, where are you? We've found Kelsey! Hurry up and go out!
01:39Help me! You can't sleep anymore! You can't sleep anymore!
02:00But when I woke up in the hospital, I saw something that shattered my heart.
02:07Saving Kelsey is the goal, yes. But if you try to save her at the cost of Stephanie's life, I
02:13won't allow it.
02:31What the hell were you thinking? Starting that fire? Stephanie's only seven months pregnant.
02:36Are you trying to force her into early labor? Were you trying to kill her and the baby?
02:46Kelsey has leukemia. The doctor said we can't wait anymore. She needs surgery soon.
02:51And she needs the baby's bone marrow.
02:54I care about Kelsey's life more than you do. Why else would I have married Stephanie?
03:00Well, you can't hurt her. I have my own plan.
03:04Saving Kelsey is the goal, yes. But if you try to save her at the cost of Stephanie's life, I
03:11won't allow it.
03:18So that was why he married me. Not because he loved me, but to save Kelsey.
03:32Everything he did for me, his kindness, his care was all for her.
03:37Just like my father and brother, he loved Kelsey. Not me.
03:42If no one loved me, then I figured I might as well just disappear.
03:46Tears kept falling as I walked down the hospital hallway.
03:50All I could see in my mind were flashes from the past.
03:56My mother had died from birth complications after giving birth to me.
04:00Since then, my brother, Denton Grant, and my father had never liked me.
04:05Yo!
04:10Tomorrow, just us three. You and Denton, big trip.
04:15For real? No way!
04:17For real.
04:25For her sweet 16 party, they threw a massive celebration, invited everyone from school, and even had a 10 layer
04:33cake.
04:37When Kelsey got sick.
04:39How are you feeling? Your brother is on his way back home right now.
04:46Much better.
04:47Thank you, father.
04:49But when I was hospitalized for pneumonia, no one came to see me.
04:55I used to think a girl like me, who caused her mother's death, didn't deserve love.
05:04This is where you belong! An unloved outcast!
05:08You killed our mother!
05:09Mother! You don't deserve to be at my birthday party at all!
05:38You don't deserve to be at my birthday party at all!
05:40Stephanie is the one I love.
05:42Anyone who dares to mess with her again will have to deal with me.
05:48Edwin was like a savior from heaven, right then and there.
05:52I fell for him.
05:53It all felt like a dream.
05:55How could a mafia boss like Edwin fall for someone like me?
05:59A girl everyone blamed for her mother's death.
06:03Even after we got married, it still felt too unreal.
06:07I really thought he loved me.
06:09But now I knew.
06:11He married me for Kelsey.
06:21Three years ago, Kelsey was diagnosed with chronic leukemia.
06:25She needed a bone marrow transplant, but no one in the family was a match.
06:36If Stephanie conceives a child, the baby's bone marrow will have a much higher chance of matching Kelsey's.
06:42This is currently the most effective treatment plan for her, her condition.
06:48So that was why Edwin married me.
06:51His love, his care, everything he did.
06:54It was all for Kelsey.
06:58As I neared the hospital room, I suddenly heard voices inside.
07:04I'm not even sick.
07:06I fake the leukemia.
07:08I just wanted Stephanie to lose all hope.
07:11I wanted her to finally understand that Dad and Deton only love me.
07:17And Edwin, he thought I saved him when he was kidnapped as a kid.
07:22He fell for me when he heard a piano tune he thought I played.
07:27But it was actually Stephanie both times.
07:31The one he truly loves is Stephanie.
07:35But too bad, he'll never know the truth.
07:41So, Edwin had the wrong person all along.
07:45He hurt me for Kelsey, not knowing I was the one he really loved.
07:50My hands trembled as I realized my phone had somehow started recording.
07:55The entire conversation had been captured.
08:00I took a deep breath, calmed myself, and tucked the phone away.
08:11I want to terminate the pregnancy.
08:17He knew how hard it had been for me to carry this baby.
08:21How many supplements I had taken, and how long I had been on bed rest just to keep it.
08:26After everything you've been through to conceive and protect this child.
08:33It's a pity to give up now.
08:38I cannot influence your decision.
08:45But this procedure requires Edwin's signed consent to proceed.
08:49Take the consent form home and think carefully again.
08:59There you are.
09:00I didn't see you just now.
09:02I was afraid something had happened.
09:03There was a time when just holding his hand made me feel safe.
09:08Now, all I felt was heartbreak.
09:15You're worried about me?
09:17You're my wife.
09:18Of course I'm worried.
09:19Who else would I worry about?
09:22Everyone knows you're my whole world.
09:25And you're carrying our baby.
09:28My nose stung.
09:29Was Edwin really worried about me?
09:31Or just afraid something might go wrong and mess up the bone marrow transplant for Kelsey.
09:39There's a test.
09:41I need your signature.
09:44What kind of test?
09:51Edwin, get over here. Kelsey's not feeling well.
10:00Okay, I'll be right there.
10:07There's something going on at the company.
10:09I'll be back soon.
10:10I'll go with you to do the checkup later.
10:24I opened the folder.
10:25Tears blurred my eyes as they landed on the words.
10:29Termination of pregnancy consent form.
10:31I walked toward the doctor's office.
10:33But just as I reached the door, the baby kicked.
10:36That tiny movement made me stop in my tracks.
10:40It was like the baby could sense my fear and was telling me not to give up.
10:49I hesitated for a long time.
10:51And then turned and walked away.
10:53I couldn't do it.
10:55I wanted to keep this child.
10:57I would take him far away from this world of lies.
11:00Away from the Grants.
11:02Away from Edwin.
11:03From now on, it would be just my baby and me.
11:08I stayed in the hospital all day, but Edwin never showed up.
11:15The next day, after I checked out by myself, I passed the VIP ward and saw something that cut deep.
11:21Denton and my father were right there with Kelsey.
11:27One was feeding her fruit, the other flipping through channels to find her favorite comedy movie.
11:34Meanwhile, Edwin was talking seriously with her doctor about her treatment plan.
11:40Kelsey tugged on Edwin's sleeve and pointed at a box of chocolates.
11:44Edwin unwrapped it and gently fed her one.
11:47Watching that warm, perfect scene felt like a knife to the heart.
11:51They looked like a real family, while I was just someone who didn't belong.
11:59I remembered the time Kelsey and I were both hospitalized with pneumonia when we were little.
12:07Denton and my father stayed by her bedside the entire time,
12:11taking care of her like she was the only one who mattered.
12:15I was alone in a cold hospital room.
12:18No one checked on me.
12:20I was so thirsty that my lips cracked and bled.
12:26Sweetheart, why is no one taking care of you?
12:30Water.
12:33Slow down, take your time.
12:39Moments like that when I was ignored happened more times than I could count.
12:44It wasn't until I married Edwin that I finally felt what it was like to be loved.
12:49He had always been so thoughtful, giving me the best of everything.
12:54I really thought I was the only one in his heart.
12:59Feeding her chocolate like that.
13:01It broke me all over again.
13:03I wiped away my tears and headed home.
13:06Then I called my college advisor.
13:14I accept the closed research project at Northendia.
13:27Hello?
13:28Mrs. Grant, the 10-year contract is confirmed.
13:30No returning home.
13:31I understand.
13:31Your flight is booked for three days from now.
13:34Okay, three days.
13:35You should say a proper goodbye to your family.
13:41I-I will.
13:43After all, you won't be coming back for a decade.
13:46I know.
13:52Hi.
13:56What were you booking on the phone?
14:00The opera tickets I bought earlier.
14:01I couldn't make it because of the hospital stay, so I canceled them.
14:04I see.
14:05But why didn't you tell me you were discharged?
14:07I would have picked you up.
14:13Stephanie, why didn't you tell Edwin you were discharged?
14:16When we saw your room empty, he panicked.
14:18He thought something terrible had happened.
14:20He's a mafia boss, you know.
14:22Tons of enemies are watching him.
14:23He really thought you'd been kidnapped by one of them.
14:25I looked at Kelsey.
14:27She always knew how to twist things around and make me look bad.
14:32She'd been doing it since we were kids.
14:37And now, she was slapping me with the same old label.
14:41Selfish and inconsiderate.
14:47Kelsey's health isn't great.
14:49The doctor said she should rest at home.
14:51Our castle has clean air and a forest nearby is perfect for recovery.
14:54That's why I invited her to stay for a while.
14:59Sorry, I'll be interrupting your alone time.
15:02She was clearly waiting for me to lose my temper.
15:05Just so she could play the victim and call me spoiled and unreasonable.
15:09That was always her tactic.
15:12But I just kept a calm face.
15:14You can stay as long as you want.
15:17Kelsey froze for a second.
15:19The next day, Edwin was busy giving the maids instructions about Kelsey's room.
15:28He made sure they understood every little detail, especially her diet.
15:34So, it turned out Edwin knew Kelsey's preferences just as well as he knew mine.
15:39I closed my eyes, suddenly feeling ridiculous.
15:44Why had it taken me this long to realize how much he cared about her?
15:49That night, I went to my room early to start packing for the trip.
16:02I was just about to lie down when Edwin came in with a glass of water.
16:18Take this before bed.
16:20You don't want to wake up with leg cramps again from low calcium.
16:23As I watched how gentle he was, a bitter feeling rose in my chest.
16:28He must have only learned to be this thoughtful because of taking care of Kelsey.
16:32Are you guys asleep?
16:36Before either of us could answer, she pushed the door open.
16:45She was holding a bottle of massage oil and smiling sweetly.
16:50Stephanie, you're pregnant and pregnancy can cause swelling.
16:55I just learned a therapy technique.
16:57Let me give you a massage.
16:59I frowned and shook my head.
17:01I didn't feel close enough to Kelsey to be okay with her giving me a massage.
17:05Is it because you don't trust my technique?
17:09Edwin, I know Stephanie doesn't like me much, but I really mean no harm.
17:26Kelsey was worried she was intruding on us by staying here,
17:29so she wanted to do something helpful.
17:31Just let her give you a massage, okay?
17:34My nose stung.
17:36Between me and Kelsey, he chose her.
17:38Even knowing our relationship was strained, he didn't take my side.
17:45That was the moment I gave up, I stopped fighting.
17:50Okay, thanks Kelsey.
17:52Kelsey, I agreed.
17:53I didn't care what she had planned anymore.
17:56Tomorrow at this time, I'd already be on a plane out of here.
17:59I wouldn't expect anyone's love ever again.
18:02And no one would be able to find me.
18:05Edwin, her arms and legs need to be secured during the massage to prevent sudden movements.
18:11This is a stretch band.
18:13It's soft and doesn't cut circulation, so it won't hurt her.
18:21I looked at Edwin, silently begging him with my eyes.
18:25Who needed to be tied up for a massage?
18:28That was clearly suspicious.
18:33But the same Edwin, who was sharp and ruthless in the business world, actually believed her.
18:39He let her tie my arms and legs down.
18:47I'll start the massage now.
18:49Edwin, can you step out for a bit?
18:56I'll be back as soon as you're done.
18:58The moment he left, the door clicked shut, and Kelsey's sweet expression vanished.
19:04I yanked at the bands, trying to free myself, but I couldn't move at all.
19:19Don't bother struggling.
19:21Those ones on you don't stretch at all.
19:31You figured it out, didn't you?
19:34That Edwin only married you because of me.
19:38Even if you know so what, you can't change anything.
19:43You've been under my thumb since we were kids.
19:47Once you give birth, your child will be next.
19:52I knew I couldn't change the way Edwin Denton and my father all favored Kelsey.
19:58That was why I had decided to leave.
20:01But hearing her say it out loud still broke my heart.
20:05You know what, mom's death wasn't your fault.
20:12My stomach dropped.
20:13What did she mean by that?
20:20When you were first brought out of the delivery room, Dad and Denton adored you.
20:26They said you looked just like mom, so pretty, and they wanted to raise you like a little princess.
20:32They were going to give you the best of everything.
20:34I hated it!
20:36Before you came along, I was the little princess of the family.
20:39So I pulled out the oxygen tube while mom was still unconscious after surgery,
20:44and you're the reason why your mother died.
20:46I'm going to make sure you die too.
20:48I wanted to see if they would still love you if mom died because of you!
20:54So it wasn't me. I didn't cause my mother's death.
21:00As I expected, they blamed everything on you.
21:04They stopped loving you and gave all their attention to me.
21:09Aren't you afraid I'll tell Denton and Dad the truth?
21:13You can try.
21:16No one would believe you.
21:50It hurts.
22:02Kelsey collapsed dramatically onto the floor.
22:07Kelsey!
22:08Don't blame Stephanie.
22:11I must have hurt her by accident, so she kicked me because of the pain.
22:20How could you hurt Kelsey?
22:23I didn't.
22:29I'm taking her to the hospital first.
22:36It took a long while before I could stand up again.
22:43I applied ointment to my burned arms.
22:50And then I gathered all my documents and ID.
22:53By the time the sun rose, I'd be gone for good.
22:59It was still dark out when the door suddenly burst open.
23:03Denton and my father stormed in, and without warning, I got slapped across the face.
23:09Stephanie!
23:10Kelsey was trying to help by giving you a massage, and you kicked her?
23:15Don't you know she's still recovering from being sick?
23:24You killed your mother the day you were born, and now you want to kill Kelsey too?
23:28How can you be so cruel?
23:30My father's words hit me like a storm.
23:33He raised his hand to slap me again.
23:35But maybe it was the way I looked, crying in silence, that made Denton hesitate.
23:42Perhaps they still love me, still feel a trace of tenderness for me.
23:46After all, I am one of their family.
23:49Am I not?
23:50I try so desperately to believe that they still love me.
24:02Dad, she's still pregnant. Let it go.
24:07Even if Kelsey accidentally hurt you during the massage, you shouldn't have kicked her.
24:13She's not well. You're coming to the hospital with me to apologize to Kelsey.
24:22Kelsey caused these burns on me. I didn't tendrum.
24:26I didn't kick her. She fell on purpose.
24:37You've always been selfish and hard to deal with, but at least you used to be honest.
24:43Now you're just lying to escape responsibility.
24:49Kelsey is kind. Why would she ever hurt you?
24:53Anyone can see you burned yourself just to gain sympathy.
24:58Hearing my father blindly take Kelsey's side broke something inside me.
25:03I cried harder, then suddenly found myself laughing. I already knew.
25:09I'd always known they favored Kelsey over me.
25:12So why did I keep trying to explain myself? Why was I still hoping they'd stand by me?
25:22Get up. You're coming with us to the hospital to apologize.
25:36Stephanie? Stephanie, are you okay?
25:38When I opened my eyes again, my arm was reeds and bandaged, and Edwin was holding my hand.
25:45I'm sorry I got back so late. Don't worry. I'm here now.
25:52Everything's going to be okay.
25:53His hands were big and warm. His voice was calm and comforting. But the feeling I used to get from
26:00him,
26:00the sense of safety was gone, because every time Denton and my father punished me,
26:05it was always Edwin who came to my rescue. I used to think Edwin was the light in my life.
26:12But now, all I saw was someone pretending to care.
26:23It's still early. Get some more rest.
26:25He was right. It was still early. I should get some sleep. I needed the energy to leave.
26:31I drifted off again. And when I woke up, it was already 9am. The room was empty.
26:37I gave a bitter smile, of course. Edwin wasn't here. He was probably at the hospital with Kelsey.
26:44That was fine. It meant I could leave without anyone noticing. I checked my luggage and got
26:49ready to go when suddenly, a message popped up from Kelsey.
26:58Edwin, will you and Stephanie get divorced after she gives birth to the baby? I'm not divorcing Stephanie.
27:04I was wrong before, and I'll take care of her for the rest of my life.
27:08He told them to stop bringing up divorce. He wanted to make things right and make up for what he'd
27:13done.
27:20Tears fell again. Did Edwin ever really love me? If that love was built on lies, then I didn't want
27:26it.
27:28I picked up my bags, and got into a cab. Then, I sent the video from the hospital, the one
27:35where Kelsey
27:36admitted Edwin mistook her identity, and she was faking her illness, anonymously to Edwin's email,
27:42and the surveillance footage from our bedroom, where Kelsey confessed she was the one who caused our
27:48mother's death. I sent that anonymously to my father and Denton. After I hit send, I tossed my phone out
27:54the
27:54window. From now on, I was starting a new life. At the hospital, Edwin suddenly felt a wave of anxiety
28:01for no reason.
28:12What's wrong? Are you burned? I'm fine. My hand just shook. I don't know why, but I have a bad
28:19feeling.
28:20I'm worried about Stephanie. I need to go home and check on her.
28:36Can you please not go? I'm all alone in the hospital. I'm scared. Can you please not go?
28:50All right. I'll stay with you a little longer.
28:59Every minute after that felt like torture. He was visibly restless, distracted, and clearly on edge.
29:06Seeing him like that, Kelsey sent me several more text messages full of insults,
29:11but I never saw any of them. With no reply from me, Kelsey felt her efforts to provoke me were
29:17pointless.
29:18She was furious but had nowhere to vent it. It wasn't until my plane landed safely in Northendria,
29:24my father and Denton returned to the hospital room. Edwin didn't say a word to them.
29:30He rushed straight back home. His chest suddenly tightened and he felt as if needles were stabbing at
29:36his heart. The pain made him drop to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
29:45He walked into the bedroom and saw the empty bed.
29:51Then he opened the closet and saw that all of my clothes and belongings were gone.
29:56That was when Edwin turned pale.
30:04Esme! Where's Esme?
30:08Esme!
30:11He had a terrible guess in his heart, but he didn't want to believe it.
30:23This morning, Mrs. Carlson said she was going to the hospital to see you. She never came back after that.
30:36I'm not even sick. I faked the leukemia. I just wanted Stephanie to lose all hope. I wanted her to
30:44finally understand that Dad and Denton only love me.
30:59No way.
31:05No way.
31:07This can't be happening.
31:11So Stephanie's the one who saved me when I was a kid.
31:17That piano song that drew me in. That graceful figure I could never forget. It was her all along.
31:25I got it all wrong. I hurt the one person I loved most.
31:38Every year on Mom's death, Chris Racy, Stephanie never shows up.
31:41I don't even know if she'll bother to come this year.
31:45Mom died giving birth to her. And she doesn't show the lightest bit of gratitude.
31:51The truth was, I never skipped my mother's memorial on purpose.
31:56They just never brought me.
32:04Sister, can you tell me where Mom's grave is?
32:10You don't need to know where her grave is. Just stay at home and behave yourself.
32:18I know she didn't mean it. Please forgive her.
32:21Don't even mention her. I don't have a daughter like her.
32:25I really don't understand why Stephanie is always targeting me.
32:28I've always given in to her, tolerated her, and cared about her in every way. I've never once treated her
32:34badly.
32:37When she realized neither of them was responding, she finally looked up, and what she saw made her heart skip
32:43a beat.
32:51What's going on?
32:55Did Stephanie badmouth me again, or tell you I hurt her?
32:58It's okay, she-
33:02You're the one who killed Mom, aren't you?
33:13You've been pretending. Pretending for years, and made us hurt Stephanie again and again. You're so cruel!
33:21I don't know what you're talking about. What do you mean I killed Mom? What pretending?
33:27Did Stephanie go crying to you again, telling you lies about me?
33:37That night, you didn't give Stephanie a massage at all, did you?
33:42You set her arm on fire!
33:51Denton's eyes were bloodshot. Regret stabbed into his heart like a knife. He hated himself for being so cold to
33:57me.
34:01I-I wanted to give her a massage, but I... I accidentally...
34:12You're still lying, huh?
34:30See for yourself.
34:33She had no idea there was a surveillance camera in the room.
34:37Edwin had installed it back when I was pregnant.
34:41On nights when he worked late, he would check the camera to make sure I was safe.
34:47They never took it down, and now it had captured Kelsey's true colors.
34:58Ah, my whole body hurts.
35:12I'm in so much pain. My leukemia must have flared up again.
35:20Are you faking a flare-up again?
35:23I'm going to pretend you're dizzy and dying, desperate for a bone marrow transplant?
35:32Are you sure?
35:35Look at her.
35:36Look at her, you can pee, Edwin.
35:37I knew it was when I got injured.
35:40She never had leukemia in the first place!
35:45Edwin, I swear I have leukemia, I...
35:47You didn't save me when I was a kid.
35:49You weren't the one playing the piano.
35:52Why did you lie to me? Why?!
35:57It's all because you deceived me.
36:05Otherwise, I wouldn't have hurt Stephanie all this time.
36:10Stephanie's gone. She doesn't want me anymore.
36:13She doesn't want me anymore. Are you happy now?!
36:40No one knew how much time had passed.
36:43Hi. Is Stephanie okay?
36:45Do her burns still hurt?
36:51I actually don't have her phone number.
36:58Edwin, I slapped Stephanie yesterday.
37:01Is her face still swelling?
37:03Did she put ice on it?
37:12Stephanie's gone.
37:14I can't find her.
37:16The police said she left the country, but it'll take hours to find out exactly where she went.
37:25Stephanie.
37:26I've done so much to hurt you over the years. I'm so sorry.
37:31Only Kelsey sat with her head down, her expression dark and hateful.
37:35She never thought I'd expose her like this.
37:37She actually regretted not finishing the job and burning me alive.
37:41But it was too late now.
37:53Stephanie boarded a research plane, bounted for Northern Devonia.
37:59Oh my god, you're pregnant.
38:01Then you go and sort out the data first.
38:05Come back to the experimental front line after giving birth.
38:09I handled data instead and focused on staying healthy until I gave birth.
38:14For the next two to three months, Edwin and the others tried desperately to reach me.
38:18But I had joined a top secret government project.
38:21Without my permission, no one could contact me.
38:31It wasn't until after I gave birth that I heard from a friend what Edwin had done.
38:42I have to find her no matter what the cost.
38:47She's the most important person in my life.
38:58Maybe Edwin really did love me.
39:00But from the moment he got close to me for Kelsey's sake and used me.
39:03That love was already tainted.
39:06The reason he was so desperate now was because he realized he was wrong.
39:10And wanted to make up for it.
39:13But some things just can't be undone.
39:15From the moment I chose to walk away from Edwin, Denton, and my father.
39:20I told myself that from now on, I would live for myself.
39:24I would love myself and stop chasing after anyone's approval.
39:28Three years into my time at the research center, my little boy came running in.
39:40Mommy! There's a man at the door. He says he's my daddy.
39:44Mommy! He gave me cake too!
39:55How could Edwin be at the Northendria Research Center?
39:59Everyone here had to pass a strict screening and specialize in biology or scientific research.
40:05Edwin was just a businessman. But when I opened the door, I froze.
40:15Stephanie, I know you don't want to see me. And that's okay. I just wanted to say hi.
40:20I'm the new research fellow. I work right next door. Guess we'll see each other around.
40:29Later, I learned from my mentor that after Edwin couldn't reach me, he actually spent three years
40:35getting certified in biological research. He proved himself with hard work and passed
40:40all the required screenings. That was how he got into the program. It would be a lie to say
40:45I wasn't moved. But I didn't know how to forgive everything he had done. So I left that decision
40:52to time. As the days went by, my son and Edwin grew closer and closer. And slowly, I started letting
40:59him back into my life. When our son turned seven, Edwin and I got back together. All those old wounds
41:06had finally faded with time. And what came next was the happy life of a complete family.
41:15Amen.
