02:38Rosalind, there's five million dollars on this card. I'm begging you. As long as you bring Sophia back, I'll give
02:43you anything you want.
02:44He dug out our old wedding ring and forced it onto my finger.
03:16We can remarry. We can remarry. We can remarry. I mean it.
03:46The crowd turned on the crowd.
03:48On screen, Ryan's face was contorted.
04:20Laura was crying.
04:20We can remarry. We can remarry. We can remarry.
04:24Comments flew past and remarry.
04:27We can remarry.
04:32We can remarry. We can remarry sowe can remarry.
05:00Look that bitch out.
05:00Sous-titrage MFP.
05:30Laura's eyes were red. She wouldn't meet my gaze. For a moment, hesitation flickered across her face, but just as
05:36quickly, it hardened into resolve.
05:38Sophia may not be our flesh and blood, but she's a thousand times kinder than you!
05:42For eight years, she stayed by our side and took care of us in your place. And you? You're nothing
05:47but a convicted murderer!
05:48Tears slid down her face, so in their eyes, the daughter who had taken the fall and rotted in prison
05:54for eight years was nothing but a stain on their lives.
05:57Disposable trash they could sacrifice without a second thought.
06:00I didn't kill anyone!
06:02I struggled desperately and shouted with all my strength.
06:04I told you! It wasn't me! It was Sophia!
06:07Enough!
06:08Ryan strode in, eyes ice cold, a high-voltage stun baton in his hand.
06:13Even now, you're still trying to slander Sophia.
06:16I opened my mouth and spoofed, and my entire body seized. Darkness swallowed everything.
06:24When I opened my eyes again, I had been thrown onto the deck of a salvage boat. All around was
06:29the dark, heaving sea.
06:31I see wind cut across my face. Ryan loomed over me. Impatience etched into every line of his face.
06:36Stop playing dead. Get in the water and bring Sophia up.
06:40He clenched his jaw, then forced his voice softer.
06:43Rosalyn, no diver is better than you. Not even the Coast Guard. Be good. Save her, and I'll remarry you.
06:49My gaze drifted to the photo in Ryan's hand. In it, Sophia wore a diving vest and stood at the
06:54center of a group.
06:55But what caught my eye was the scar on her right shoulder, identical to mine.
06:58Ten years ago, the three of us, Ryan, Sophia, and I, went diving to the room.
07:02That day, an underwater current struck without warning. In the chaos, I saved Ryan and Sophia.
07:08But I was injured and swept away. I drifted unconscious for three days before anyone found me.
07:13At the time, I noticed nothing wrong. I only sensed that Ryan's attitude towards Sophia had started to shift in
07:18ways I couldn't quite name.
07:19Only now did it finally hit me. During the three days I was missing, Sophia had stolen my place and
07:25made herself a savior in Ryan's eyes.
07:26No wonder Ryan had been willing to destroy my life for her.
07:29My fists clenched. My voice came out raw.
07:31I told you, my ear can't take deep-sea pressure. I'll die from a brain hemorrhage.
07:38But the next instant, my father lunged forward and drove his foot into my chest.
07:42I slammed onto my back on the deck, the pain in my chest so sharp I could barely draw breath.
07:46My mother knelt on the deck with her hands clasped, weeping and praying without pause.
07:51Rosalind, go down willingly, or I throw you in myself. Your choice.
07:57If you want to save her, you need to hurry. Sophia's oxygen has 30 minutes left, at most.
08:03Ryan spun around and barked at the bodyguards.
08:06Get the gear on her!
08:07Several men became heaped flat against the deck.
08:09Ryan hauled over a diving rig himself.
08:11The oxygen got outrusted. The rubber seals cracked.
08:16Ryan, you're a diver!
08:17You know putting me in this gear is the same as killing me!
08:20The captain stood nearby, his expression uneasy.
08:22Mr. Miller, this equipment could genuinely kill someone.
08:26Ryan cut him off.
08:27There's no time. This is all we've got.
08:31Sophia. Saving Sophia is all that matters.
08:33He didn't so much as glance my way.
08:35The bodyguards closed in.
08:36I thrashed.
08:37I fought.
08:38My hearing was knocked loose, hit the deck, and someone's boot came down on it hard.
08:42It shattered instantly and wrestled the battered divesuit onto me anyway, afraid I'd try to escape.
08:46Ryan brought over a heavy iron chain and padlocked it around my waist.
08:50In despair, I looked toward my parents one final time.
08:53Richard stood with his arms folded, staring down at me without a shred of warmth.
08:57Laura still had her eyes shut and Leilib's moving in ceaseless prayer.
09:01Through my tears, I laughed and adjusted my diving mask himself.
09:04Rosalind, just bring Sophia back.
09:07I'll make it up to you.
09:08We'll remarry.
09:10I swear it.
09:12The freezing water swallowed me whole.
09:15The iron chain around my waist dragged me down like an anchor.
09:18A dull, tearing pain ripped through my right ear.
09:21Blood poured out instantly.
09:22I opened my mouth to scream and seawater rushed in.
09:25My vision clouded red with blood.
09:27Consciousness slipped away piece by piece.
09:29Just as I was about to black out entirely,
09:31a hand shot from the darkness and seized me.
09:33I turned my head, and through the bloody haze,
09:36I met a pair of eyes.
09:37It was him.
09:41Minute after minute passed.
09:43The surface of the sea continued to churn,
09:45but neither Sophia nor I surfaced.
09:47Laura gripped the railing, her face bloodless,
09:49eyes locked on the water.
09:51Richard paced the deck, sweat beating across his forehead.
09:54Ryan kept raking his fingers through his hair in agitation.
09:57She'll be fine.
09:58Rosalind is the best diver in the country.
10:01She'll bring Sophia back.
10:02His white-knuckled fists wouldn't stop shaking.
10:05Then, a siren cutting through the wind.
10:07A Coast Guard patrol boat closed in fast.
10:09Several officers leapt aboard.
10:11The lead officer scanned the deck, then spoke curtly.
10:13Who's responsible here?
10:15Richard immediately stepped forward.
10:17I'm Richard Carter.
10:18My daughter Sophia went missing at sea.
10:20We're conducting a rescue.
10:22The Coast Guard captain frowned.
10:23A rescue?
10:25Blonde girl?
10:26Red wetsuit?
10:27Every head on deck snapped toward him.
10:29That's her!
10:30Laura rushed forward and grabbed his arm,
10:32her eyes full of hope.
10:33You saw her?
10:34We pulled her out three hours ago.
10:36So what exactly are you people still rescuing?
10:38The air went dead silent.
10:40Ryan snapped his head up.
10:41What?
10:46The captain pulled up his body camera footage.
10:48On screen, Sophia lay on the deck of the Coast Guard vessel.
10:51Drenched, delirious, flying wild with her own skin.
10:54Unhinged laughter kept spilling from her lips.
10:58The onboard medic examined her.
11:00While diving, she came into contact with a highly toxic marine creature, a venomous sea
11:05hare.
11:05The toxin causes severe hallucinations and acute psychosis.
11:09She's been rushed to the hospital for treatment, but her life is not in danger.
11:12Oh, thank God.
11:13The moment Laura heard, not in danger, she collapsed to the deck, weeping with relief.
11:19Richard exhaled as though he'd been holding his breath for hours.
11:22Ryan closed his eyes, holding the railing as if all the strength had let his body in,
11:26but then the color drained from his face.
11:29Wait!
11:30Rosalind still hasn't come up!
11:32Ryan's pupils contracted to pinpoints.
11:35Rosalind!
11:36He rushed to the railing and searched the water frantically.
11:39Nothing but black sea stare back, just as everyone's faces turned pale.
11:42One more thing.
11:43Sophia Carter is suspected of stealing gold from a shipwreck and committing murder.
11:49She is now in police custody.
11:56What the hell are you talking about?
11:58My daughter is a philanthropist!
12:01How could she possibly kill anyone?
12:05Impossible!
12:06Sophia has been kind since she was a child!
12:08She wouldn't hurt a fly!
12:11Officer, you'd better have evidence before making accusations like that.
12:15If you're falsely charging Sophia, my lawyers will have your badge.
12:18The captain met their fury without flinching.
12:20Then he played another video in the footage.
12:23It wasn't me!
12:24I didn't mean to!
12:25Yes!
12:26Jack found the gold!
12:27But I never meant to kill him!
12:30I just got his oxygen line!
12:32I don't want to go to prison!
12:34Laura froze where she stood.
12:35Richard's face went white.
12:37Ryan stared hard at the screen.
12:39Then Sophia on screen burst into laughter.
12:41That stupid woman, Rosanon, probably never even realized how much I stole from her.
12:47Ryan always thought I was the one who saved him back then.
12:50All I had to do was show him the scar on my shoulder and the fool actually believed it.
12:55And those two old fools, I played them like puppets.
12:59Even dumber than Rosalyn.
13:01All I had to do was play the victim and they treated me like their real daughter.
13:05In the end, they sent their own flesh and blood to prison with their own hands!
13:11The captain closed the video.
13:13Laura looked as though every bone in her body had dissolved.
13:16She staggered back and collapsed.
13:20That's impossible.
13:22How could this happen?
13:32She shook her head over and over, tears pouring unchecked on her face.
13:38Richard's face was livid, veins throbbing at his temples.
13:41It's fake!
13:42It has to be the hallucination talking!
13:45She was poisoned.
13:48She didn't know what she was saying!
13:50Ryan seized on this like a drowning man grabbing driftwood.
13:53Exactly!
13:55The toxin causes hallucinations!
13:58Those words are inadmissible!
14:01She was delirious.
14:02She could have been saying anything.
14:03I knew you would say that.
14:05Coast guard captain looked at them coldly.
14:07He took a stack of documents from a colleague
14:09and dropped them on the deck table.
14:14So after taking her into custody,
14:17we immediately reopened the deep-sea murder case from eight years ago.
14:21And we discovered this.
14:24Rosalind's original confession contained numerous contradictions
14:27with the physical evidence.
14:29Additionally, the defense attorney in Rosalind's case
14:33received a large wire transfer the day before the trial.
14:36All evidence points to the same conclusion.
14:41What Sophia said is the truth.
14:46And the funds?
14:48It came from an offshore company registered under your name.
14:56In addition,
14:58we also discovered that Sophia
15:00has repeatedly sold gold
15:02through overseas accounts over the years.
15:05The total exceeds tens of millions of dollars.
15:08The evidence forms a complete chain.
15:10She is suspected of murder,
15:12illegal possession,
15:14and trafficking of gold,
15:15criminal fraud,
15:17and multiple additional felonies.
15:18The coast guard captain continued.
15:21I suggest you cooperate.
15:26At that moment,
15:27Richard stood frozen,
15:29as if turned to stone.
15:30Laura covered her face and broke down.
15:31No.
15:37How could this happen?
15:38Ryan looked as if his soul had left his body.
15:41I was the one who risked my life to drag you ashore.
15:46As long as you're safe,
15:48nothing else matters.
15:50Sophia bearing the scar on her shoulder
15:52with a gentle smile.
15:53This scar is from saving you.
15:57It didn't hurt at all.
16:02And later, in court...
16:03I didn't kill anyone.
16:04Rosalind repeating with bloodshot eyes,
16:06Sophia killed Jack.
16:08But not a single person had believed her.
16:10Not even him.
16:10Her own husband.
16:21The coast guard captain frowned.
16:24What is it?
16:26Half an hour ago,
16:28they pushed another woman into the water.
16:32She kept saying her eardrum was damaged,
16:35that she couldn't dive deep.
16:36The captain trembled as he pointed toward the sea.
16:41But Mr. Miller forced her in anyway.
16:45And now, she still hasn't surfaced.
16:51The coast guard captain whipped around.
16:53What?
16:54Every trace of color drained from Ryan's face.
16:56Laura jerked her head up.
16:59Rosalind...
17:00Ryan ran to the side of the boat at the modern home.
17:03Rosalind, answer me!
17:04But the only response was the cold, surging sea.
17:07Laura stumbled to the railing too,
17:09screaming my name with the same desperation she'd spent on Sophia.
17:13Rosalind, where are you?
17:14Can you hear me, baby?
17:16She screamed until her knees buckled and she crumpled to the deck.
17:20Richard lurched forward and caught her.
17:21The coast guard captain immediately ordered divers into the water.
17:24The boat captain cooperated with the search.
17:27Ryan stood motionless,
17:28bloodshot eyes fixed on the churning water.
17:30Just then, the captain's radio crackled to life.
17:33Sir, the woman we pulled out earlier,
17:35she's regained consciousness.
17:41Richard, Laura, Ryan, and several officers arrived at the hospital.
17:45The moment Sophia saw them,
17:46her eyes welled with tears.
17:48She reached out a trembling hand.
17:49Ryan, I was so scared.
17:51I almost thought I'd never see you again.
17:54No one spoke.
17:54Sophia's smile faltered.
17:56She slowly raised her head.
17:57Only then did she see it.
17:59Every pair of eyes staring back at her had gone cold.
18:01Disappointed, revolted.
18:02Her brow creased.
18:03She asked carefully,
18:05What's going on?
18:07What happened?
18:08Richard stared at her,
18:09eyes a terrifying shade of red.
18:11Then he lunged forward and seized her by the hospital gown.
18:13Enough!
18:14How much longer are you going to keep up this act?
18:17What are you talking about?
18:19Richard hurled the tablet into her lap.
18:21Sophia looked down, bewildered.
18:23The moment she saw herself on screen,
18:25laughing hysterically,
18:26confessing everything.
18:27Her face drained of all color.
18:29No.
18:30She panicked.
18:30Impossible.
18:31The words tumbling out in a jumbled rush.
18:33It's fake!
18:33I was poisoned!
18:34Those words weren't what I really wanted to say!
18:37She looked up at Ryan wildly and grabbed his hand.
18:39Ryan, you believe me, don't you?
18:43I love you!
18:45Everything I did, I did it because I love you!
18:47Ryan wrenched, free as though her touch were poison.
18:49Eyes that had once licked at her with tenderness
18:51now held nothing but cold fury.
18:53Love me?
18:54His eyes were red as he approached her step by step.
18:57So you destroyed Rosaline's life?
18:59So you murdered Jack?
19:00And you made me push Rosaline to see with my own hands
19:03just to save you?
19:11Sofia's face grew whiter and whiter.
19:14But gradually, the fear in her eyes faded.
19:16What replaced it was the viciousness of someone with nothing left to lose.
19:19And then, she laughed.
19:21Yes, I did it.
19:22The room went dead silent.
19:24Laura's hand flew to her mouth.
19:25Sofia.
19:26But Sofia stopped pretending entirely.
19:28She leaned against the hospital bed, her smile venomous.
19:31Since you all know anyway, I'm tired of acting.
19:34She looked at Richard and Laura, her eyes full of mockery.
19:36You didn't actually think I saw you as real family, did you?
19:40You're just two idiots.
19:41All I had to do was play the victim
19:43and you treated me like your own flesh and blood.
19:45You even destroyed your real daughter's life for my sake with your own hands.
19:51Laura was shaking with rage, tears pouring down her face.
19:55Why?
19:55We were so good to you!
19:57Sofia sneered.
19:58Because you were stupid?
19:59Her gaze ambiguous and malicious.
20:01Then she turned to Ryan.
20:02And you.
20:02Why are you pretending to be so devoted?
20:07All those years in bed.
20:09Didn't you enjoy every minute of it?
20:12Ryan's face turned ashen.
20:13The next second, he punched Sofia hard in the face.
20:16Sofia fell back out of the hospital bed,
20:18blood immediately spilling from the corner of her mouth.
20:20Shut up!
20:21Ryan rushed at her like a madman
20:23and clamped both hands around her throat.
20:25If Rosalind doesn't come back alive,
20:28I'll bury you alongside her!
20:31Sofia struggled to bleed, but she still laughed wildly.
20:36Come back alive?
20:38Ryan, don't tell me you actually believe
20:40a woman with a destroyed eardrum
20:42can survive a hundred and dive.
20:51Ryan's hands froze.
20:53Laura finally broke down completely.
20:57She rushed forward like a madwoman
20:59and slapped Sofia hard across the face.
21:01You devil!
21:03What did we ever do to you?!
21:06Sofia's head snapped to the side from the blow,
21:08but the smile remained at the corner of her mouth.
21:10That smile even carried a sick kind of pleasure.
21:13What did you do to me?
21:15Of course you wronged me.
21:18Why did Rosalind get to be your real daughter?
21:21Why was she the one who got everything?
21:24I wanted to take it all.
21:26Not just her family,
21:29but the man she loved.
21:30And in the end,
21:31I wanted to destroy her completely.
21:34And clearly,
21:36I succeeded, didn't I?
21:38Laura trembled with rage.
21:39At last,
21:39she could no longer hold herself up
21:41and collapsed to the floor,
21:42sobbing.
21:43Richard stared blankly down at his own hands.
21:46Those hands had ruptured
21:47his own daughter's eardrum eight years ago.
21:50Those same hands had bound her
21:51and forced her into the sea
21:53to save a monster.
21:54At that moment,
21:54overwhelming regret
21:55finally swallowed him whole.
21:57It was me.
21:59I killed Rosalind.
22:00He suddenly raised his hand
22:02and slapped himself hard across the face.
22:04Then another slap.
22:06Like a madman,
22:07he kept slapping himself
22:08until blood seeped
22:09from the corner of his mouth.
22:11I destroyed my own daughter
22:13with my own hands.
22:14Ryan suddenly covered his face,
22:15his shoulders shaking violently.
22:16Just then,
22:17the door to the hospital room
22:18was pushed open
22:19and the Coast Guard Captain hurried in.
22:20We have news.
22:23Everyone jerked their heads up.
22:25Ryan rushed over like a lunatic.
22:27Did you find Rosalind?
22:28The Coast Guard Captain
22:29was silent for two seconds,
22:30then slowly nodded.
22:32Ryan's eyes instantly lit up,
22:33but the Captain's next words
22:35plunged everyone into an icy abyss.
22:38We recovered damaged diving equipment
22:39from the deep sea zone,
22:41along with a significant amount of blood.
22:44Based on expert assessment,
22:45the chance of survival in those conditions
22:47is virtually zero.
22:50Laura's mouth opened in a silent wail.
22:53Richard staggered backward.
22:54Ryan looked as if his soul
22:55had been ripped out.
22:57No.
23:00Impossible.
23:00His eyes read.
23:02He gripped the Coast Guard Captain tightly.
23:04There's no body, right?
23:06No body means she could still be alive.
23:10Keep searching.
23:11I don't care what it costs.
23:13Keep searching.
23:14The Coast Guard Captain frowned.
23:16Mr. Miller,
23:18that stretch of ocean
23:19is nearly a hundred meters deep
23:20with powerful underwater currents.
23:23if someone actually went down there.
23:25Ryan slowly loosened his grip
23:27and looked down at his trembling hands.
23:29Those hands had pushed me into the sea.
23:33At the thought,
23:34Ryan let out a broken laugh,
23:35eyes bloodshot,
23:36but the laugh turned to sobs,
23:38and tears streamed down his face.
23:45A private marine medical center,
23:47Australia.
23:48I slowly opened my eyes.
23:50Sunlight poured
23:50through the floor-to-ceiling windows
23:52into the room.
23:53A gentle voice said,
23:54You're finally awake.
23:55I turned my head
23:56and saw a familiar face.
23:57He dipped his head
23:58and let out a quiet laugh.
23:59Congratulations, Rosalind.
24:00You survived.
24:02My throat so dry it hurt.
24:04Kenneth helped me sit up
24:05and held a glass of water to my lips.
24:09Where is this?
24:09Australia.
24:10That day,
24:11I was nearby the whole time.
24:12After they pushed you in,
24:13I immediately took a deep
24:14submergeable down after you.
24:20I was silent for a long time
24:22before slowly lifting my hand
24:24to touch my right ear.
24:25New medical equipment
24:26had been wrapped around it.
24:27Kenneth noticed my movement.
24:28He brought me a mirror
24:29and explained softly.
24:34Don't worry.
24:36Your eardrum took severe damage again,
24:38but we managed to save it.
24:40There's still a chance of recovery.
24:42Eight years ago,
24:43accidentally discovered a sunken ship
24:45at the bottom of the sea.
24:47At the time,
24:48Sophia was overcome by greed.
24:50She cut Jack's oxygen line
24:51and pinned everything on me.
24:52Back then,
24:52no one was willing to believe me.
24:54Only Kenneth,
24:55Jack's younger brother,
24:56stood by my side
24:57from beginning to end.
24:58All these years,
24:59he had been secretly
24:59investigating Sophia.
25:02And this time,
25:03he and I had set the trap together.
25:09Two months earlier,
25:11we had used targeted algorithms
25:12to feed Sophia
25:13a steady stream of information.
25:16Reports of shipwreck gold,
25:17supposedly discovered
25:19in a remote stretch of ocean,
25:20step by step.
25:21We fabricated the trail,
25:23step by step.
25:24We reeled her in.
25:26Until finally,
25:27Sophia completely believed
25:28there truly was priceless gold
25:30hidden in that area.
25:31And she took the bait.
25:32What I hadn't anticipated
25:34was that Ryan and my family
25:35would go completely insane.
25:37That they'd kidnap me
25:38and drag me out to open water.
25:39Thinking of this,
25:40I slowly closed my eyes.
25:42Kenneth looked at me
25:43and suddenly asked
25:44in a low voice,
25:45Do you regret it?
25:46I was silent for a long time.
25:48No.
25:48Some people need to pay
25:49for what they've done.
25:50Half a year later,
25:51I had just finished
25:53my final round of treatment
25:54when an international news bulletin
25:56suddenly interrupted the program
25:57on the hospital television.
25:58Today,
25:59the United States Supreme Court
26:00formally delivered its ruling.
26:01Sophia Carter
26:02has been found guilty of murder,
26:03illegal possession and trafficking
26:04of gold,
26:05criminal fraud,
26:06and multiple additional felonies.
26:07She has been sentenced
26:08to life in prison without parole.
26:09On a television screen,
26:10Ryan wore a prison uniform.
26:12His eyes bloodshot
26:13as he struggled toward the camera.
26:15Keep looking for Rosalind!
26:17She must still be alive!
26:19Please!
26:20Keep looking for her!
26:22Keep looking for her!
26:23Richard and Laura
26:24seemed to have aged decades overnight.
26:27They wept
26:27and confessed their guilt
26:29to the camera.
26:30I watched in silence.
26:31All I felt
26:31was the quiet calm
26:33of something
26:33finally being over.
26:37Gold Coast,
26:38Australia,
26:39sunlight fell over the blue sea
26:40as a white research vessel
26:41slowly docked
26:42at a private harbor.
26:44I was now
26:45the head of a leading
26:46international marine ecology
26:47research team
26:48and Kenneth
26:48was my husband.
26:50Over the years,
26:51with his support,
26:52my hearing had largely recovered.
26:53I'd even returned
26:54to deep sea work,
26:55this time
26:56only for marine conservation.
26:57That day,
26:58we had just finished
26:58an international
26:59deep sea research livestream.
27:01Countless reporters
27:02crowded outside the harbor.
27:03Camera flashes firing non-stop.
27:05Just as I was about
27:06to get into the car,
27:07a voice,
27:08hoarse to the extreme,
27:09suddenly called out,
27:10Rosalind!
27:11My steps paused slightly
27:12and I turned around,
27:13not far away.
27:14A man so gaunt
27:15he was barely recognizable
27:16was stumbling toward me.
27:18His hair was unkempt,
27:19his face sallow,
27:20and his cheap coat
27:21reeked of alcohol.
27:22He looked at me
27:22with red eyes
27:23and tears immediately fell.
27:25Rosalind,
27:26it really is you.
27:28I finally found you.
27:30As he spoke,
27:30he took out that wedding ring
27:32from his pocket
27:32with trembling hands.
27:34Ryan clutched the ring tightly
27:35as if holding on
27:36to his last lifeline.
27:38All these years,
27:39I've been searching for you.
27:40Every single day,
27:41I've regretted what I did.
27:44Rosalind,
27:45I really know I was wrong.
27:47Please give me
27:48one more chance.
27:50As long as you're willing
27:51to come back.
27:53I'll do anything.
27:55As he spoke,
27:56he actually knelt
27:57in front of everyone.
27:58The reporters around us
27:59erupted in shock,
28:00countless cameras
28:01swinging toward us.
28:05I simply looked at him quietly.
28:07After a long time,
28:08I slowly spoke.
28:09Ryan,
28:11the moment you chose
28:12to believe Sophia,
28:14everything between us
28:15was already over.
28:16Ryan's face
28:16instantly turned pale.
28:18No.
28:18Rosalind,
28:19I was only deceived.
28:20I truly love you.
28:22At those words,
28:22I suddenly laughed.
28:26Love?
28:27If this is what your love is,
28:29then it's simply terrifying.
28:31He stood there with red eyes,
28:33his whole body trembling.
28:35Just then,
28:36Kenneth walked over
28:36from behind me.
28:37He naturally wrapped an arm
28:39around my shoulders,
28:40then lightly kissed my cheek.
28:42Honey,
28:43the interview's about to start.
28:44I looked up at him
28:45and couldn't help smiling.
28:48Okay.
28:49Ryan stared at the scene.
28:50The last light in his eyes dimmed,
28:52then died.
28:54At the same time,
28:55in a cheap nursing home
28:57in the United States,
28:58Richard and Laura
28:59were sitting in front
29:00of an old television.
29:01On the screen,
29:01the UN's highest award
29:03for ocean conservation
29:04was being presented live,
29:05and the person receiving it
29:07was me,
29:07on camera.
29:09I wore a black gown,
29:10mature,
29:11composed.
29:12Laura's eyes reddened.
29:14She reached out
29:14with a trembling hand.
29:16Richard,
29:18that's my daughter.
29:19At the next second,
29:20a caregiver impatiently
29:21switched off the television.
29:22What are you watching?
29:23Two broke old people like you
29:25think you can claim
29:26a connection to someone like her?
29:28Get back to your room!
29:29The two old people
29:30lowered their heads in silence
29:31and said nothing more.
29:34At dusk,
29:35the sea breeze drifted gently
29:36across the deck.
29:39I leaned in Kenneth's arms
29:41and looked out
29:41at the rolling sea
29:42in the distance,
29:43then smiled softly.
29:45What are you smiling about?
29:46He asked quietly.
29:50I shook my head.
29:52I just suddenly realized
29:53true rebirth
29:54isn't revenge
29:56finally succeeding.
29:57It's finally being able
29:58to let go of the past.
30:01Kenneth gently held my hand
30:03and I started the yacht,
30:05letting it carry us
30:06toward the deeper sea.
