00:00The doctor pressed the ultrasound probe against my belly, and three tiny black dots were pulsing on the screen.
00:06Triplets, congratulations.
00:08Before I could react, my phone screen lit up.
00:10Chris Whitmore sent a message.
00:12$100 million. Divorce. Sign tomorrow.
00:16I stared at that line for three seconds, then sat up from the examination chair.
00:20The doctor was startled.
00:21I grabbed her hand, my eyes brimming with tears.
00:29Is $100 million enough to raise three children through PATGs?
00:36Mrs. Whitmore, do you need me to call for a psychiatric consultation?
00:39I let go of her hand and wiped away the tears I had laughed out.
00:42No need. I'm very clear-headed.
00:45My phone rang again. It was Chris calling.
00:4810 tomorrow morning. Sign at the law firm. I'll send the address to your email.
00:54Okay.
00:54If you have any conditions, say them now.
00:57Which card will the money be transferred to?
00:59The other end of the line went silent for two seconds.
01:02That's all you're asking?
01:03Yes.
01:04Elena, why are you pretending to be calm?
01:06I heard someone laughing in the background.
01:08It was Isabella Vance's voice, crisp and carrying the sound of victory.
01:12She was probably leaning beside Chris, tilting her head as she listened to this call.
01:16I'm not pretending.
01:17I picked up the ultrasound report and held it up to the light to look at the images.
01:21$100 million isn't a small amount.
01:23Transfer or check? I have to ask clearly.
01:26Transfer. It'll arrive within three days.
01:29Fine. I'm very touched. Really.
01:33Touched?
01:34In three years, this is the first time you've been this generous.
01:37His breathing grew heavier on the other end.
01:40Elena.
01:44See you tomorrow.
01:45I hung up and turned my phone face down on my lap.
01:47The doctor stood beside me, the probe in her hand still suspended in midair.
01:51Madam, you really don't need...
01:53I need another ultrasound.
01:54I didn't see clearly just now.
01:56How big are the three babies?
01:57I handed her the report.
01:59The doctor froze for two seconds, took the report, and pressed the probe back against my belly.
02:04This one is the eldest, normal head sucrimpris.
02:06This one is the second, slightly smaller.
02:08And this one is the third.
02:09I looked at the screen and began calculating another account.
02:13Chris thought I was only carrying one.
02:14He had never accompanied me to a prenatal checkup.
02:16Not once.
02:17When I told him I'm pregnant, he was looking at his phone and replied.
02:21Got.
02:21It.
02:22After that, he transferred $2,000 a month to my card for living expenses.
02:26Like dropping coins into a vending machine.
02:28He never asked, and I couldn't be bothered to tell him.
02:30The Whitmore family needed an heir.
02:32I knew that from the first day I married into it.
02:34Chris's mother died when he was 18, and his father had lived in a nursing facility since
02:37suffering a stroke three years ago.
02:39The burden of the whole family fell on Chris.
02:41When his father was lucid, every time he saw me, he asked the same question.
02:44Are you pregnant yet?
02:46Later, when he could no longer ask, his sister Margaret asked for him.
02:49The way she looked at me was never like looking at a sister-in-law, but more like inspecting
02:53a reproductive machine yet to pass acceptance.
02:55Elena, you know the Whitmore family needs an heir.
02:58She had said that to me no fewer than 20 times.
03:01Now this machine had exceeded its task, but the party doing the inspection had already torn
03:06up the contract.
03:07After the ultrasound, I got down from the examination bed and put on my coat.
03:11The nurse handed me the new examination report.
03:13A thick stack covered in dense data.
03:16Mrs. Waitmore, triplets are a high-risk pregnancy.
03:18You'll need more frequent prenatal checkups.
03:20Schedule on for next week.
03:21Hmm, okay.
03:23There's one more thing.
03:25The nurse hesitated.
03:26Your husband still isn't coming this time?
03:28I looked at her young face and smiled.
03:31He's not coming.
03:32He won't ever come again.
03:35When I married Chris three years ago, I thought I was marrying love.
03:39Back then, he wasn't this cold.
03:40He would smile sometimes and ask what I had eaten for dinner.
03:43Later, a message from Isabella appeared on his phone, and he changed.
03:46Isabella was his first love from college.
03:48Three years ago, she suddenly returned to the country, and Chris's whole heart flew back
03:52to her.
03:52I thought marriage could keep him.
03:54Now it seemed I had only given him one more piece of paper he could tear up.
03:57My phone lit up again.
03:59This time, it was Olivia Chen.
04:00Olivia's voice exploded from the receiver, and I had to hold the phone farther away.
04:05Elena, I just saw Chris's post.
04:06He wrote free at last and added a photo of champagne.
04:09What's going on?
04:10He asked for a single divorce.
04:13What?
04:14One hundred million dollars.
04:17Signed tomorrow.
04:18One hundred million dollars?
04:20And you just agreed?
04:22Olivia's scream made the elevator walls seem to shake.
04:26I agreed.
04:28Elena Harper, are you crazy?
04:29Do you know how much Chris is worth?
04:31Have you checked Whitmore Group's valuation?
04:32If you sue, you can get far more than one hundred million.
04:35The elevator doors opened, and I walked into the underground parking lot.
04:39How long would a lawsuit take a property lawsuit?
04:42Huh?
04:42One or two years?
04:43Two or three?
04:44Or longer?
04:45Olivia was silent for three seconds.
04:47The fastest.
04:48More than a year.
04:49I folded the ultrasound report and put it into my bag.
04:52I don't have that time.
04:54A year from now, my children might already be running around.
04:57I don't have time to waste on him.
04:59But one hundred million is too little, and you're pregnant.
05:02Hasn't the Whitmore family always been shouting about needing an heir?
05:05Divorcing him while pregnant lets him off too easily?
05:07I opened the car door and got into the back seat of a taxi.
05:10It's not little.
05:11And Chris doesn't know I'm carrying triplets.
05:13None of his family knows.
05:15The other end of the phone went completely silent for a full five seconds.
05:20Elena, say that again.
05:24I told him I was pregnant, but I didn't say how many.
05:27He never asked, and neither did Margaret.
05:30Olivia's breathing grew heavy.
05:32I knew that sound too well.
05:33It was the signal that she was about to explode.
05:35But this time, she didn't shout.
05:37She lowered her voice and said,
05:39Wait for me.
05:39I'm going to your place right now.
05:41Don't hung up.
05:41I'm in the car.
05:43The signal is bad.
05:44We'll talk when I get there.
06:05The taxi stopped beneath the penthouse building.
06:07I paid and got out.
06:09Mrs. Wiltmore.
06:10The lobby security guard saw me and nodded.
06:12You'll be changing that soon.
06:17The guard froze for a moment, and I walked into the elevator.
06:22The elevator went straight to the top floor.
06:24When the doors opened, the 300 square meter space spread out before me.
06:28The living room was empty.
06:29Even the cushions on the sofa were bought by me.
06:31There wasn't even a pot in the kitchen.
06:32Chris never ate at home.
06:34The refrigerator only had mineral water and fruit baskets regularly replaced by his assistant.
06:40I walked into the bedroom and began packing.
06:43Three years of marriage, a 300 square meter home, and my belongings couldn't even fill one suitcase.
06:50My phone rang.
06:51It was Chris calling.
06:58You moved out.
07:00I'm packing.
07:01Elena, what happened at the hospital today?
07:04What do you mean?
07:05The doctor said you needed a psychiatric consultation.
07:07I stopped what I was doing.
07:09He had actually called the hospital.
07:10Not because he cared about me, but because he feared my mental state might cause trouble with divorce procedures.
07:15The doctor misunderstood.
07:16I'm fine.
07:17Are you sure?
07:19Chris, don't tell me you've suddenly started caring about me.
07:21A cold snick came from the other end.
07:23I'm just making sure the property division won't be affected by your mental state.
07:26Don't worry.
07:27I'm very clear-headed.
07:29Clearer than any contract you've ever signed.
07:36You only care about money, don't you?
07:38And what about you?
07:40You only care about your first love, right?
07:42Sign tomorrow.
07:43After that, we're even.
07:47After saying that, I hung up and pushed the suitcase to the foyer.
07:52Then I took out my phone and opened a food delivery app.
07:56For the first time in three years, I ordered a whole table of food for myself in this apartment without
08:00restraint.
08:01The food arrived quickly.
08:02I used the living room coffee table as a dining table and sat on the sofa, eating heartily.
08:06At the end of the meal, I took the sticky note Chris had left on the coffee table and wrote
08:10four words, free at last.
08:12Then I stuck it beside his champagne glass.
08:14If he wanted to celebrate, I didn't mind, because I had more reason to celebrate than he did.
08:19The next morning, Olivia blocked me at the door of my newly rented apartment.
08:24Her eyes were red, as if she hadn't slept all night.
08:30Why didn't you call me when you moved?
08:32I moved last night.
08:34I didn't have much stuff.
08:35One car trip was enough.
08:37She followed me inside and glanced at the suitcase in the living room.
08:42This is everything you owed after three years?
08:45She crouched down, unzipped the suitcase, looked through the things inside, then stood up, with her eyes even redder.
08:58Elena, what kind of life have you been living?
09:02Actually, it was pretty good.
09:04It helped me develop a good habit of keeping accounts.
09:08Good, my ass.
09:10Olivia looked at me.
09:11Anger and indignation in her eyes, but mostly heartache.
09:14You're just too good at enduring things.
09:16Enough.
09:18I know what you want to say.
09:19If I fight Chris in a property lawsuit, the time cost starts at over a year, legal fees start at
09:27seven figures, and the emotional toll in between is immeasurable.
09:31If I sign this agreement, 100 million arrives in three days, and the child belongs to me.
09:37Help me calculate this account.
09:39Which one is worth it?
09:40Olivia opened her mouth, then closed it again, and finally cursed.
09:44You're really a damn accountant.
09:46Thank you.
09:47I wasn't complimenting you.
09:48I know.
09:50She cursed again, then stood up.
09:54Fine, 100 million it is.
09:56But you have to tell me, why doesn't Chris want the child?
09:59Doesn't the Whitmorm family value heirs the most?
10:02Didn't his father even use equity inheritance rights to pressure him to getting married and earlier children?
10:10His father is lying in a nursing facility now and can't even speak.
10:15As for Chris, he said the child was a burden.
10:19Olivia's expression froze.
10:21He said that himself?
10:22I took my phone out of my pocket and played a recording.
10:25This was a habit I had developed over the past few days.
10:28Ever since Chris sent that message, I had pressed the record button before answering every call from him.
10:33Chris's voice came from the recording, clear and cold.
10:40After Olivia finished listening, she didn't speak for a long while.
10:44How do you plan to use this recording?
11:00Elena, you weren't like this when you married him.
11:02I lowered my head and looked at the empty bun wrapper in my hand.
11:05I wasn't like this.
11:07Three years ago, I wouldn't record calls, wouldn't calculate accounts, and wouldn't archive every word my husband said for backup.
11:14Three years ago, I would still worry when he came home late, prepare surprises for our wedding anniversary, and personally
11:20cook a whole table of dishes on his birthday.
11:22Then sit alone at the dining table waiting until dawn.
11:25Later, I stopped waiting, stopped cooking, and stopped remembering his birthday.
11:30People change.
11:31When you've been frozen for too long, you learn to make your own fire.
11:36At 10 minutes to 10, I arrived at the law firm early.
11:46I sat at the conference table, took a piece of bread out of my bag, and began eating.
11:51The lawyer was already there, with three copies of the divorce agreement laid out on the table.
11:57He glanced at me, his gaze lingering on the bread in my hand for three seconds.
12:02Mrs. Whitfor.
12:04Harper.
12:04I corrected him.
12:05I won't be Whitfor very soon.
12:07The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said nothing more.
12:10At exactly 10 o'clock, the conference room door was pushed open.
12:14Chris walked in, wearing a black suit, a white shirt, and a perfectly knotted tie.
12:19Behind him were two assistants, and a private lawyer.
12:23As soon as he entered, his gaze landed on my bread, and he frowned.
12:27You're eating bread at a law firm?
12:30Breakfast.
12:31I took a bite.
12:32I didn't have time to finish it.
12:34A trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.
12:36The kind of disgust I knew too well, as if he were looking at something improper.
12:40In three years, I had lost count of how many times he had looked at me that way.
12:44When I wore flats, he thought I looked informal.
12:46When I ate pasta with chopsticks at home, he thought I had no manners.
12:51Even when I sniffled from a cold, he would frown.
12:54The lawyer beside us cleared his throat, and pushed the agreement to the center of the table.
12:59Both parties, let's begin.
13:01The main terms of the divorce agreement have already been confirmed.
13:03Party A, Mr. Chris Whitfield, voluntarily agrees to pay $100 million as divorce compensation.
13:08To be transferred to Party B's account in three installments within 10 days.
13:13Get to the point.
13:15Chris interrupted him, pulled out a chair, sat down, and crossed one leg over the other.
13:20I'm in a hurry.
13:20The lawyer turned to the next page without changing expression.
13:24Regarding child custody, the agreement statulates.
13:27The child goes to her.
13:28Chris's tone was like he was discussing an insignificant small expense.
13:34I have no objection.
13:36The lawyer continued reading.
13:38Party B, Ms. Elena Harper, shall obtain full custody of the child.
13:41Party A, voluntarily waives visitation rights and any custody claims.
13:46Confirmed.
13:47I took a bite of bread and chewed slowly.
13:49After the agreement takes effect, Party A shall not claim any rights against Party B or the child in any
13:54form,
13:55nor file a lawsuit on the grounds of changing custody.
13:57Impatience began to enter Chris's voice, and he raised his hand to glance at his watch.
14:02Confirmed.
14:03Confirmed.
14:03I recognize that watch.
14:05He had casually bid for it at a charity auction last year.
14:09The final price was $3.7 million.
14:11He had more than my living expenses for three years combined.
14:17Are you done reading?
14:19The lawyer glanced at me again.
14:22Party B, do you have any objections to the above terms?
14:25I swallowed the last bite of bread and brushed the crumbs off my fingertips.
14:30No objections.
14:33Then please sign in the designated places.
14:36I picked up the pen and opened the agreement.
14:39The page was densely packed with clauses, but I only looked at three lines.
14:42The compensation amount of $100 million.
14:45Three transfers to be completed within ten days.
14:48The child belongs to Party B, and Party A gives up all rights.
14:52After signing, I put the pen down.
14:53Chris stared at me, his gaze strange, as if he were waiting for something.
14:58Waiting for my tears.
15:00Waiting for my hysteria.
15:01Waiting for me to throw the pen in his face and call him a bastard.
15:04I pushed the agreement back to the lawyer and stood up.
15:08Can I leave now?
15:09The lawyer nodded, his expression somewhat stiff.
15:12Chris's expression visibly darkened.
15:15You just signed it like that?
15:17I looked at him.
15:19Isn't signing the reason you asked me here?
15:25You-
15:26He stopped.
15:28He seemed not to have figured out what to say next.
15:30He wanted to see me collapse and beg him to stay.
15:33He wanted to see me cry and plead with him not to leave.
15:36He wanted to see me miserable in this transaction.
15:38But all I showed him was a woman eager to clock out.
15:41When I reached the door, I paused, didn't look back, and only turned my face slightly to say one sentence.
15:46Chris, thank you.
15:48He froze, and even the two assistants behind him froze.
15:51In these three years, you taught me one thing.
15:56Money is more reliable than people.
15:58So this 100 million really does touch me.
16:01I slung my bag over my shoulder.
16:05I walked out of the law firm, only to see a woman sitting in the coffee across the street.
16:09It was Isabella Vance.
16:11She wore a beige trench coat, her hair elegantly pinned behind her head, with a latte beside her hand.
16:16Across the entire street, her gaze pinned itself to me like a nail.
16:19It was the gaze of a victor, condescending, carrying pity and mockery, as if she had just taken a piece
16:24of trash from my hands.
16:26The day the money arrived was a Wednesday.
16:31The first payment had arrived.
16:33$33 million.
16:35The remaining two payments would arrive one after another within a week.
16:39That afternoon, I signed a house purchase contract and paid in full.
16:43The moment I swapped the card, my heart sped up slightly.
16:46Not because I felt bad about the money, but because this was a decision I had made without asking anyone's
16:51opinion at all.
16:53For three years, I had to ask Chris before buying anything.
16:57If he was in a good mood, he would say whatever.
16:59If he wasn't, he would ask why I was spending money again.
17:03$2,000 a month couldn't even buy a decent business lunch in the CBD.
17:09Now it was good.
17:10I didn't need to ask him to buy a house, didn't need to ask him to have children, and wouldn't
17:15need to ask him about my life ever again.
17:18A peaceful week passed.
17:22On the morning of the eighth day, a courier knocked on my door.
17:25A cap paper envelopes, sealed with wax, with gilt lettering.
17:29When I opened it, I already had a feeling.
17:32Sure enough, inside was Chris and Isabella's engagement invitation.
17:35Their names were printed on it, and the date was, today.
17:3810 days.
17:39Only 10 days after the divorce procedures were completed, the invitation had already been printed and delivered.
17:45That meant everything had already been in preparation before I signed.
17:50I picked up my phone, took a photo, and sent it to Olivia.
17:54Three seconds later, her call came in.
17:56Is he even human? It's only been 10 days since the divorce. 10 days.
17:59And he's getting engaged? He even had the invitations printed before you signed?
18:03Obviously.
18:05Who sent this invitation?
18:07A courier.
18:08He doesn't even have the courage to give it to you in person?
18:10Olivia's voice was like a firecracker exploding.
18:12Where's the address?
18:13The venue.
18:14The most expensive hotel in the city.
18:177 tonight.
18:18You're not planning to go, are you?
18:22Of course.
18:24Elena!
18:25If I don't go, everyone will think I'm hiding at home crying, that I don't dare see anyone,
18:29that I took the money and disappeared in disgrace.
18:31I placed the invitation on the table, and looked at Isabella's handwriting on it.
18:35She had specially attached a handwritten note.
18:37Elena, thank you for your blessing. You are welcome to come.
18:41Blessing.
18:41She had written that word with particular force.
18:44I'm going.
18:45I said.
18:46And I'm going alone.
18:53After hanging up, I opened my suitcase.
18:56I chose a burgundy waist slimming dress.
18:59The waistline of the dress sat exactly 3 inches below my chest.
19:03After I put it on, my 5-month pregnant belly was outlined just right.
19:07Standing in front of the mirror, I looked at myself.
19:0926 years old, carrying triplets, divorced, and having just bought a house.
19:13When I smiled, I looked younger than I had in all the past 3 years combined.
19:16I said to myself in the mirror,
19:18In some scenes, the main character must make her entrance alone.
19:22The hotel banquet hall doors had attendants at the entrance.
19:26When I handed over the invitation, his gaze paused on my belly.
19:31Madam, are you alone?
19:34Yes.
19:35When I walked in, whispers rose from the corners.
19:38Is that Elena?
19:40Chris's ex-wife?
19:41Why is she here?
19:42She's still pregnant.
19:43I ignored every gaze and walked straight to the front row.
19:46The aisle seat in the first row was empty, and I sat down directly.
19:49I took a bag of nuts from my purse, tore it open, and began eating.
19:53The female guest beside me glanced at me, then at the nuts.
19:56I nodded at her and kept eating.
19:57At 7.15, the side door opened.
20:00Chris and Isabella walked out arm in arm.
20:02He wore a white suit, and she wore a white fishtail dress.
20:06Chris's gaze swept the front row and stopped on my face.
20:09Then he saw my belly.
20:10His footsteps faltered.
20:13Isabella saw me too.
20:14Her smile didn't change, but her hand tightened on Chris's arm.
20:18I silently mouthed at Chris, congratulations.
20:22He looked away, as if he hadn't seen it.
20:29The ceremony continued.
20:31The host began his speech about destined love.
20:34I listened while browsing baby stroller brands on my phone.
20:37On stage, Isabella began her vows, her voice cloyingly sweet.
20:41Chris, from the day we separated, I knew I had missed the most important person in my life.
20:46Halfway through, her voice trembled.
20:50I looked up and found her staring at my belly.
20:58Chris followed her gaze, warning in his eyes.
21:02I smiled at him.
21:08During the ring exchange, Isabella extended her left hand.
21:11When Chris slid the ring onto her finger, her hand was shaking.
21:17It took two tries to push the ring all the way on.
21:20Applause rose, and I clapped twice along with it.
21:22Before the applause faded, Chris's friend Daniel walked over and bent beside me.
21:27He lowered his voice.
21:28A polite smile, but a commanding tone.
21:31Elena, you'd better leave now.
21:38I peeled another almond, not looking at him.
21:41This is Chris's engagement party.
21:43It's inappropriate for you to be here.
21:44Why?
21:46I received an invitation.
21:48The invitation was from Isabella.
22:00He stopped halfway.
22:01I put the almond in my mouth, finished it slowly, then looked up.
22:07Why stop?
22:09Isabella sent the invitation.
22:10She wanted me to come and see her victory.
22:12Now that I'm here, why is she nervous?
22:15His face tightened.
22:19Leave now, and everyone can keep their dignity.
22:32You have to do this?
22:33If I don't leave, it's still dignified.
22:36Daniel driving a pregnant woman out in front of all these guests.
22:38What will tomorrow's headlines say?
22:40Withard Group CEO expels pregnant ex-wife from engagement party.
22:43The surroundings suddenly quieted.
22:45Daniel's face went from livid to pale, then to ashen.
22:50He straightened up, stepped back, and left.
22:54I picked up my phone again and continued comparing stroller's assessment suspects.
22:59On stage, Isabella was showing her ring to the camera.
23:03Her smile was still beautiful, but the muscles at her eyes were stiff.
23:07I lowered my head, finished the last nut, and patted my palms clean.
23:12Then I stood and walked towards the restroom.
23:15Passing the dessert table, I casually took a piece of cheesecake.
23:19It was actually pretty good.
23:23Coming out of the restroom, Chris stood in the hallway.
23:26He saw me, came over in two steps, grabbed my wrist, and dragged me toward the lounge.
23:31He was strong.
23:32I couldn't break free and didn't want to struggle in front of guests and hurt my belly.
23:35I leaned against the wall, rubbing my wrist.
23:38Elena, what exactly are you trying to do?
23:41You sent the invitation.
23:43Now the ex-wife comes and she's an eyesore.
23:46That logic is funny.
23:48Isabella sent it only because she wanted-
23:50She wanted me to see she won.
23:52I finished for him.
23:53I saw it.
23:54Nice.
23:54The ring is very shiny.
23:56Chris took a deep breath.
23:57Jaw clenched tight.
23:58His hittoral expression before anger.
23:59In three years of marriage, I'd seen it too many times.
24:02You didn't need to come with your belly like this.
24:03His gaze stopped on my belly then moved away.
24:05What is this?
24:06Using the child to embarrass me?
24:07When you signed the agreement, you didn't even ask if the child was a boy or girl.
24:10What do you mean?
24:11Nothing.
24:12I lowered my hand.
24:13Chris, the best thing you ever did for me was divorce me.
24:17He didn't refute me immediately.
24:18The room was silent for about three seconds.
24:20I opened the door and walked out.
24:21Back in the banquet hall.
24:22Everyone was clinking glasses.
24:24Laughter filled the space again.
24:25Isabella stood beside Chris's sister Margaret.
24:27Very close.
24:28When she saw me come out, Margaret's gaze swept over coldly.
24:30I walked through the crowd, picked up my bag, and threw the nut bag in the trash.
24:33Then I went to the dessert table and took another piece of cheesecake.
24:36You can still eat?
24:37Margaret's voice came from behind.
24:39The cheesecake here is pretty good.
24:40Want to pee?
24:41You know my brother is getting engaged today, right?
24:43I know.
24:44I got the invitation and came to congratulate.
24:46Congratulations?
24:47You call what you did congratulations?
24:48You sat in the front row with your belly for everyone to see?
24:50Browse baby products during the ceremony?
24:52Made Isabella shake the whole time?
24:54That's congratulations?
24:55When your brother married me, did anyone ever say congratulations?
24:58In three years of marriage, what did you say to me most?
25:01Elena, the Whitmore family needs an heir.
25:03You treated me as a reproductive tool for inspection.
25:06In three years, did you ever give me a kind face?
25:09I placed the empty plate down.
25:10Margaret, hasn't your Whitmeal family always shouted about needing an heir?
25:13When I was pregnant, you drove me away.
25:15Now I'm gone, you're afraid I'll appear.
25:16Who exactly can't let go?
25:18Gasps rose behind me.
25:21Chris had somehow appeared three steps behind me.
25:27He didn't speak, just looked at me with an expression I'd never seen.
25:31Anger, embarrassment, and something I couldn't define.
25:34I didn't look at him again, picked up my bag and walked towards the door.
25:36Passing Isabella, she stood among the bridesmaids holding a wine glass.
25:40Still smiling, but her fingers gripping the glass were white with force.
25:43I stopped and said three words quietly.
25:46Congratulations.
25:49She didn't answer.
25:50Her eyelashes trembled slightly.
25:52I walked out, the glass doors closing behind me.
25:55The pregnancy entered the sixth month, and my belly was growing fast.
26:00I moved into my new apartment, and the nursery design was revised again and again.
26:05Every item was chosen by me.
26:07I didn't need to ask anyone's opinion anymore.
26:10Tuesday afternoon, I was making the final decision over crib brochures when the doorbell rang.
26:15I opened the door.
26:16Chris stood outside.
26:17He'd lost weight.
26:17His hair was still meticulous, but his stubble wasn't shaved clean.
26:22Why are you here?
26:30How many are you carrying?
26:33You already signed the agreement.
26:35Why ask now?
26:37Elena, answer me.
26:39How many?
26:41One.
26:42You're lying.
26:44Your belly is abnormally large.
26:46A five-month belly doesn't look like this.
26:48I have too much amniotic fluid.
26:57Elena!
26:58Yumishima shouting.
27:00My voice is calm.
27:01Scaring me is fi, but scaring the baby is a different price.
27:04Let me in.
27:06It's not convenient.
27:08I'm the child's father!
27:09The agreement states you gave up all rights.
27:12That's because you lied to me!
27:13You didn't tell me you were carrying more than one!
27:15Chris, who was it that said,
27:17The child is a burden, I don't want it.
27:20Now you come asking how many I'm bearing.
27:22Isn't that contradiction?
27:25I what?
27:26What?
27:26When you said those words, did you ever think you'd regret it?
27:29The Whitmore family needs an heir.
27:31Margaret was right.
27:31If my father were still lucid, he wouldn't have let me sign.
27:33So you don't regret losing me?
27:34You regret giving up the heir?
27:36Fine.
27:36You want to see the ultrasound?
27:37Pay for it.
27:38Aren't you best at solving problems with money?
27:39Mr. Whitmore, how much are you planning to pay for an ultrasound of a child whose custody you've given up?
27:43The hallway went quiet.
27:45He stood outside, unable to say a word.
27:48After about ten seconds of silence, he spoke.
27:53I'm sorry.
27:55The security chain swayed slightly.
27:58I froze.
27:59In three years, he had never said those three words to me.
28:03What did you say?
28:04I'm sorry.
28:05He lowered his eyes, then raised them, looking straight at me.
28:08These three years, I treated you.
28:12Enough.
28:13I interrupted him.
28:15It's too late to apologize now.
28:20Elena.
28:22Leave.
28:23Come again, I'll call security.
28:25I closed the door, the lock clicking into place.
28:28It was a long time before footsteps sounded outside, dragging slowly.
28:32He left.
28:36In the seventh month, I received a call from a lawyer, not Chris himself, his attorney, the old firm the
28:44Whitmore family had used for 20 years.
28:46The other party was polite, saying new circumstances had arisen and his client, the Whitmore family, wished to reopen discussion
28:53on child custody.
28:54I noted he used the Whitmore family rather than Mr. Chris Whitmore.
28:58This meant pressure came from the entire family, not Chris alone.
29:02Please relay a few things to your client.
29:07First, the divorce agreement is legally binding.
29:11Second, if he wants to sue, I'll fight to the end.
29:15Third, I opened a file on my phone.
29:18The recording.
29:19Chris saying, the child is a burden.
29:22I held the phone near the microphone and pressed play.
29:26This under-understands.
29:31The lawyer was silent for a full ten seconds.
29:34Ms. Harper, this is a misunderstanding.
29:36I am only here on behalf of my client, too.
29:38Then tell him.
29:38I turned off the recording.
29:40If the Whitworth family sues, this recording will appear in court.
29:43Mr. Whitworth personally admitted he didn't want the child and considered it a burden.
29:47How do you think the judge will rule?
29:48The lawyer's voice became cautious.
29:50I understand.
29:51I'll report this to my client.
29:54The Whitmore family didn't suit.
29:56They retreated faster than anyone.
29:58Olivia was so well-informed I suspected she had a side job in intelligence.
30:02She said Isabella spent like water, squandering over $20 million in three months on bags,
30:06cars, private island parties, and interacting intimately with a Hollywood actor on social
30:10media.
30:11Obvious cracks appeared in Chris's relationship with her.
30:13They canceled their Milan vacation.
30:14More fatal was that old shareholders began doubting Chris's decision-making.
30:17A CEO who abandoned his pregnant wife and gave up an heir for his first love was visibly
30:22losing authority.
30:24Olivia gloated.
30:25Chris seems to have come to his senses.
30:27People say he zones out in meetings at an absurd rate.
30:30Stares at his phone during board meetings.
30:32Wallpaper still a photo of your old apartment.
30:36He's probably missing the days when he didn't have to go home.
30:39Olivia was silent, then said.
30:41And Margaret, too.
30:43She's been visiting their father in the hospital a lot, cried in the ward several times.
30:46Someone heard tell her dad, the heir is gone.
30:50My brother let the heir go.
30:52Hasn't she always wanted an heir?
30:54I leaned against the sofa.
30:56Three years ago when I married in, her first words were, the Whitmourne family needs an heir.
31:01Now the heirs have come, three of them.
31:03But she and her brother personally closed the door.
31:06You don't plan to let them see the children?
31:08The agreement states clearly.
31:10They gave up all rights.
31:12Elena, Olivia's voice became serious.
31:15If Chris truly repented...
31:17Olivia, I interrupted.
31:18Whether he repents or not is his own business.
31:21There's no longer a place for him in my life.
31:23In the eighth month, I checked into the hospital early for delivery.
31:28The doctor suggested early hospitalization.
31:30Too many uncertainties with triplets.
31:32Full monitoring necessary.
31:33On the second day, Chris's messages flooded in.
31:36Not lawyer letters or threats.
31:38From him personally.
31:39I heard you were hospitalized.
31:40Can I come see you?
31:42Are the children okay?
31:43Elena, can we talk?
31:45I read them, but didn't reply to a single one.
31:48Olivia set my phone to do not disturb.
31:50Only her, the hospital, and lawyer could get through.
31:53The C-section at 36 weeks was scheduled for Thursday at 9 a.m.
31:57At 7.30 a.m., the nurse came to prepare me.
32:01Olivia held up her phone recording me.
32:03The mother's last big belly photo before battle.
32:06Three cubs coming into the world today.
32:09She pointed the camera at herself, crying and laughing.
32:13I'm so nervous.
32:14She's not nervous.
32:16I am.
32:18Wanna sit if two?
32:22No!
32:23I wanna see my God's Boys and God's Jotter.
32:25At 8.30, I was pushed into the operating room.
32:29At 10.07 a.m., the first cry burst out.
32:33The nurse brought a warm swaddle to my face.
32:36Congratulations, Mrs. Harper.
32:38Two boys, one girl.
32:40This is the little sister.
32:44Tears slid from my eyes, one after another, completely beyond control.
32:48The accounts of nine plus months, grievances of three years of marriage,
32:52all unsaid words, turned into tears.
32:55The day I was discharged, the sun was bright.
32:58The three children were held by the mani and Olivia,
33:01wrapped in different colored swathels.
33:05Has the car arrived?
33:07I asked Olivia.
33:10Her expression suddenly changed.
33:12I followed her gaze outside.
33:13It has, but it's not only the car.
33:15A black Maybach was parked at the end of the ramp.
33:18The door was open.
33:19Chris standing beside it.
33:21He wore a formal suit, tie perfectly straight,
33:23but his face so hangered I almost didn't recognize him.
33:25He'd lost more than a little weight, cheekbones pruning dark circles under his eyes.
33:28In his hands were several large luxury brand bags, baby supplies.
33:31Margaret stood behind him, also holding a mountain of gift boxes.
33:34The wheelchair was pushed to the entrance.
33:35Chris came forward.
33:36He stopped three steps away.
33:37Three, Elena.
33:38It's three.
33:38Elena, how can your heart be so cruel?
33:40Three children.
33:41Two boys in world.
33:41Do you know what this means to the Whithill family?
33:43You didn't let my brother know even one!
33:46I didn't respond to her.
33:48I stood, legs a little weak, but stood steady.
33:52One by one, I took the three children and placed them into the stroller.
33:56Chris took another step forward.
34:01Let me hold them once.
34:03Just once.
34:04His voice was trembling.
34:06The agreement has been fully executed.
34:08You gave up all rights.
34:10I know the agreement.
34:11His voice choked.
34:13But they are also my-
34:14You're what?
34:15Your heirs?
34:16Your bloodline continuation?
34:18Back then you said they were burdens.
34:20Now they're no longer burdens, but bargaining chips you want back?
34:23Chris, Chi Ledrin, aren't merger cases you can vote on in board meetings.
34:27I pushed the stroller forward.
34:28Oliva opened the taxi door for me.
34:30I placed the three children into the taxi one by one, then got in last.
34:35Three days later, I received a handwritten letter.
34:39Three pages.
34:40Chris's handwriting.
34:41His writing had always been forceful, but the strokes on these three pages were loose and
34:48crooked.
34:49Some places were blurred by water school.
34:51The first page was full of I am sorry, densely covering the sheet.
34:55The third page had only a few final lines.
34:59Elena, I know I don't deserve it.
35:01But I want to tell you that 30% of all Whitmore Group shares are in a trust fund my
35:05father left
35:06for his grandchildren.
35:06You have the right to claim them.
35:08Not for me, but for the three children.
35:10Please give me one chance.
35:11Not to get back together.
35:13Just to let me do a little.
35:14I didn't continue reading.
35:15I folded the three pages and walked to the kitchen, turning on the stove flame.
35:19The paper curled, turned black, became ash, and fell into the sink.
35:29My phone lit up.
35:30Olivia's voice message.
35:32Come out and get some sun.
35:33There's a super handsome pediatrician in the park today doing free parenting consultations.
35:38I put my phone in my pocket and pushed the three side-by-side strollers out the door.
35:45The three children yawned, one after again in the strollers.
35:50Come on, let's go get some sun.
35:53Today was sunny, free parenting consultation in the park.
35:57The trust fund could wait for another day.
36:01Life was still long.
36:02And this time, all the power to decide was in my own hands.
