微电影文字稿
00:00:04In his memory, Winslow and Sophie were the people she cared about most, but now the children
00:00:10had concussions, and she seemed completely unmoved.
00:00:15Mrs. Harrington has been like a different person lately.
00:00:18Last week was her birthday.
00:00:19She baked a lemon cake herself, but Mr. Harrington took the children skiing with Miss Kensington
00:00:23instead.
00:00:23Who could feel fine after that?
00:00:26Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
00:00:29I was only doing it out of friendship.
00:00:35You're not telling the truth.
00:00:37We're husband and wife.
00:00:39If you have something to say, say it.
00:00:42Husband and wife.
00:00:44One month after her rebirth, every servant at the Westchester estate noticed that Mrs. Harrington
00:00:49had changed.
00:00:50She no longer got up at 5.30 in the morning to make breakfast.
00:00:54She no longer pushed the children to study.
00:00:56She no longer drove to the university to deliver nutritious meals to William.
00:01:01Even when Winslow and Sophie fell off their horses and got concussions, she only calmly
00:01:05told the housekeeper to take them to the hospital.
00:01:08A night of wind and snow passed.
00:01:10William pushed the door open and stepped inside.
00:01:12He took off his coat and finally looked toward Eleanor, who was reading by the fireplace.
00:01:18What has been going on with you lately?
00:01:20Eleanor's hand paused on the page.
00:01:21Under the dim yellow light, the man in the white shirt looked cool and aristocratic, but
00:01:26his voice was as cold as a timer in a lab.
00:01:30Nothing.
00:01:31I've just been a little busy.
00:01:33Her calm distance made William's brows tighten.
00:01:35In his memory, Winslow and Sophie were the people she cared about most.
00:01:39But now the children had concussions.
00:01:43And she seemed completely unmoved.
00:01:46Mrs. Harrington has been like a different person lately.
00:01:49Last week was her birthday.
00:01:50She baked a lemon cake herself, but Mr. Harrington took the children skiing with Miss Kensington
00:01:54instead.
00:01:55Who could feel fine after that?
00:01:57Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
00:02:00I was only doing it out of friendship.
00:02:06You're not telling the truth.
00:02:08We're husband and wife.
00:02:10If you have something to say, say it.
00:02:13Husband and wife.
00:02:15Eleanor thought of the marriage certificate in the safe, the one with William and Lydia's
00:02:19names on it, and almost laughed.
00:02:22Before she could speak, the study door was shoved open.
00:02:25You're so mean!
00:02:27I was in the hospital, and you didn't even come see me!
00:02:31I hate you!
00:02:32Winslow stood to the side.
00:02:34His eyes red.
00:02:35His lips pressed tight.
00:02:37William was about to stop her.
00:02:38But Eleanor spoke first.
00:02:40Then go find Miss Kensington.
00:02:42Let her take care of you.
00:02:46Do you mean that?
00:02:48I do.
00:02:49Sophie burst into tears, sobbing as she screamed that Eleanor was the worst mother in the world.
00:02:54She cried until she could barely breathe.
00:02:56But Eleanor did not react at all.
00:02:58Fine.
00:02:59Suit yourself.
00:03:03Winslow called Dad twice.
00:03:05But no one answered.
00:03:06Anxious, he looked back at Eleanor and glared at her.
00:03:11Why do you always have to fight with Dad?
00:03:15You should go too.
00:03:17You didn't used to be like this.
00:03:20Eleanor did not answer.
00:03:22She simply shut him outside the door.
00:03:25She leaned back on the chase and looked at the family portrait on the wall, remembering her last life.
00:03:32The Sinclair family went bankrupt.
00:03:35She was forced to drop out of school, and her stepfather wanted to marry her off to a 63-year
00:03:40-old hedge fund manager.
00:03:41It was William Harrington who saved her, saying he had chosen her as his wife.
00:03:46He was not only the heir to the Harrington family, but also Columbia University's chief scientist, a genius in gene
00:03:52editing.
00:03:53Everyone envied her, but on the first day of their marriage, William said,
00:03:57I married you only to satisfy the family trust.
00:04:00Do your duty as Mrs. Harrington.
00:04:03She nodded with a pale face, but her heart still fell for him.
00:04:08After the wedding, she cooked for him herself, ironed his shirts, nursed his stomach problems, and helped him organize his
00:04:15lab data.
00:04:16During a difficult labor, she gritted her teeth and signed for surgical consent form alone.
00:04:21Later, when she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, she kept it to herself, and secretly went for treatment.
00:04:28At the end of her life, she lay in a hospice ward, her hair completely white.
00:04:33On the television, William had just won the Nobel Prize in medicine.
00:04:37While Winslow and Sophie had received their Ivy League acceptance letters, the host asked whom he wanted to thank most.
00:04:44The person I am most grateful to is my wife, Lydia.
00:04:47She was my first love, and she is the love of my life.
00:04:51Did I just hear that wrong?
00:04:56This is what you owe Dad.
00:04:58Miss Kensington is the one who registered her marriage with him at City Hall.
00:05:02You came later.
00:05:03We have to catch a flight to Dad and Miss Kensington's wedding in Napa Valley.
00:05:09On the day she died, that grand wedding was playing on television, she closed her eyes in agony.
00:05:17After being reborn, she did only two things.
00:05:20Register for the graduate entrance exam, and apply to graduate school.
00:05:24Then go to the social security office, to replace her social security card, and apply for a new passport.
00:05:30She had already taken the exam in secret.
00:05:32In one week, the admissions result would be out.
00:05:36Ooh.
00:05:37I'll leave this family for good.
00:05:39As she was thinking, a commotion rose outside the door.
00:05:45Madam, Mr. Harrington asks that you clear out the master bedroom for Miss Kensington.
00:05:50You are to move to the guest room.
00:05:52All right.
00:05:53Mr. Harrington said you should move your things yourself.
00:05:58Eleanor nodded, quickly packed a few clothes and her books, then picked up the box and prepared to leave.
00:06:04Before she reached the door, a hand struck hers hard, and everything fell to the floor.
00:06:09She looked up and saw Lydia Kensington.
00:06:13Eleanor, long time no see.
00:06:15Eleanor crouched down to pick up her books.
00:06:18Eleanor, you're still so capable.
00:06:20Unlike me, all I know how to do is spend William's money.
00:06:24Even when you were having a difficult delivery, he was thinking of me.
00:06:27He transferred most of the family assets into a trust for me to manage, and even let me join the
00:06:33research institute.
00:06:34Eleanor flinched from the pain and shook her off.
00:06:37Lydia staggered backward and fell right into William's arms as he rushed over.
00:06:42Winslow and Sophie followed behind him, surrounding her with worried faces.
00:06:47Lydia, are you all right?
00:06:49I'm fine.
00:06:53William, maybe I should just leave.
00:06:55Eleanor doesn't seem to welcome me.
00:06:58William looked at Eleanor in silence.
00:07:00Eleanor withdrew her gaze from her son and daughter, and hid her bruised hand behind her back.
00:07:05I'm not unwilling.
00:07:07I'll leave right away.
00:07:11You're really moving out?
00:07:13You're leaving all this behind too?
00:07:15It was the only gift he had ever given her.
00:07:18Back then, she had been so happy she couldn't sleep all night.
00:07:21You're the one who told me to clear out the room.
00:07:23I'm not the one abandoning it.
00:07:25Then why aren't you taking it with you?
00:07:28There are too many things.
00:07:29I can't carry them.
00:07:31Sophie ran over.
00:07:32When she saw her plush toy in the box, her little face flushed red.
00:07:36She's throwing my things away!
00:07:38If you keep acting like this, I'll never go to science camp again!
00:07:43You're a bad mom!
00:07:45You're not even as good as Lydia's little finger!
00:07:48I'm gonna live with Lydia from now on!
00:07:50If this had been before, those words would have torn her heart apart.
00:07:54But now, she was already exhausted.
00:07:58Do whatever you want.
00:08:02The moment she stepped into the guest room, the housekeeper locked the door.
00:08:07Madam, Mr. Harrington said that since you pushed Miss Kendington, you need to calm down in here tonight.
00:08:13Eleanor did not respond.
00:08:14She lay on the bed and listened to the rain.
00:08:16In her dream, William promised her love and respect.
00:08:20But in the end, there was only her lying alone in a hospital bed while, on television.
00:08:25Her husband walked toward the wedding hall, hand in hand with Lydia.
00:08:28She laughed until tears fell, then murmured aloud.
00:08:34If there is another life, I will never love you again.
00:08:40Not love me?
00:08:42Eleanor, say that again.
00:08:43Don't open your eyes.
00:08:45Eleanor forced herself not to open her eyes.
00:08:48He saw that her eyes were closed, so she had only been talking in her sleep.
00:08:52He let out a breath.
00:08:54William, what are you doing?
00:08:57Are you worried about Eleanor?
00:08:59This is all my fault.
00:09:03This isn't your fault.
00:09:09William, if Eleanor finds out that you and I registered our marriage, will she be angry?
00:09:14It was an emergency then.
00:09:16Your father wanted to see you married before he died.
00:09:19Even if Eleanor knew she wouldn't blame you.
00:09:22Don't worry.
00:09:23She won't blame him.
00:09:24Not for the rest of her life.
00:09:26On Lydia's first day after moving in, she soaked William's laboratory manuscripts.
00:09:31They were all gene editing diagrams William had drawn by hand, stroke by stroke.
00:09:36He had worked himself into a severe stomach ulcer over them.
00:09:40But when he met Lydia's reddened eyes, he only took her hand.
00:09:45Wipe your hands.
00:09:47I'll handle it.
00:09:48The next day, Lydia redecorated the house inside and out.
00:09:53Sweet Fofie, your plush toys are too old.
00:09:57Let's throw them away, okay?
00:09:59Sophie immediately threw away the handmade dolls.
00:10:01Eleanor had sewn stitch by stitch.
00:10:03Winslow silently threw away the wooden boat in his hands.
00:10:08What a good boy.
00:10:10Those dolls and clothes had all been made by Eleanor herself, from organic cotton and cashmere.
00:10:15When the children were little, they had allergies and could only touch natural fabrics.
00:10:20Now they were all thrown into the trash.
00:10:23At the dining table, Lydia sat at the head and laid out utensils for the two children.
00:10:29William poured sparkling water for her and prepared her napkin, his eyes carrying a restrained affection Eleanor had never received.
00:10:38At night, the four of them swung in the backyard and looked at the stars.
00:10:43When Eleanor passed by, they ignored her completely, as if she were invisible.
00:10:48What was even more absurd was that all three of them had always been demanding about quality of life.
00:10:53Now Lydia had ruined his manuscripts, and William only said it was fine.
00:10:58The children wore casually washed clothes and ate take-out pizza, and not one of them complained.
00:11:04William, who was obsessed with cleanliness, even personally cooked pancakes with Lydia.
00:11:10Mr. Harrington treats Miss Kentington so well.
00:11:15Poor Mrs. Harrington worked herself to the bone for so long, and she still can't compare to a few days
00:11:19with Miss Kentington.
00:11:27That day, William pushed open the courtyard gate, his tone somewhat gentler.
00:11:32Enough. This has gone on long enough.
00:11:35I'm busy with work.
00:11:37From now on, you'll take care of the children again.
00:11:40Lydia is young and can't manage it.
00:11:42A belated birthday gift.
00:11:44Starting tomorrow, everything goes back to normal. This ends here.
00:11:47Eleanor looked at the bracelet.
00:11:49If this had been her last life, she would have been so happy.
00:11:52She couldn't sleep all night. Now it only feels ironic.
00:11:57I don't want it.
00:11:59Why?
00:12:00I'm not interested anymore.
00:12:03William frowned, and forced it into her hand.
00:12:06Eleanor turned her head away, and remained silent.
00:12:09William stared hard at her calm profile, a tight ache in his chest.
00:12:13In the end, he abruptly turned and left.
00:12:16She told the housekeeper to take the thing away, and continued reading.
00:12:24Madam! Hurry to the back hill!
00:12:26Winslow and Sophie fell into the river!
00:12:38In his memory, Winslow and Sophie were the people she cared about most.
00:12:42But now the children had concussions.
00:12:46And she seemed completely unmoved.
00:12:48Mrs. Harrington has been like a different person lately.
00:12:51Last week was her birthday.
00:12:53She baked a lemon cake herself, but Mr. Harrington took the children skiing with Miss Kensington instead.
00:12:57Who could feel fine after that?
00:13:00Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
00:13:03I was only doing it out of friendship.
00:13:08You're not telling the truth.
00:13:10We're husband and wife.
00:13:13If you have something to say, say it.

00:19:05and even let me join
00:19:06the research institute.
00:19:08Oh.
00:19:08Eleanor flinched from the pain
00:19:09and shook her off.
00:19:11Lydia staggered backward
00:19:12and fell right into William's arms
00:19:14as he rushed over.
00:19:15Winslow and Sophie followed behind him,
00:19:18surrounding her with worried faces.
00:19:20Lydia,
00:19:21are you all right?
00:19:23I'm fine.
00:19:26William,
00:19:27maybe I should just leave.
00:19:29Eleanor doesn't seem to welcome me.
00:19:31William looked at Eleanor in silence.
00:19:34Eleanor withdrew her gaze
00:19:35from her son and daughter
00:19:36and hid her bruised hand
00:19:38behind her back.
00:19:39I'm not unwilling.
00:19:41I'll leave right away.
00:19:45You're really moving out?
00:19:47You're leaving all this behind too?
00:19:49It was the only gift
00:19:50he had ever given her.
00:19:51Back then,
00:19:52she had been so happy
00:19:53she couldn't sleep all night.
00:19:55You're the one who told me
00:19:56to clear out the room.
00:19:57I'm not the one abandoning it.
00:19:59Then why aren't you
00:20:00taking it with you?
00:20:01There are too many things.
00:20:03I can't carry them.
00:20:05Sophie ran over.
00:20:06When she saw her plush toy
00:20:07in the box,
00:20:08her little face flushed red.
00:20:10She's throwing my things away!
00:20:12If you keep acting like this,
00:20:14I'll never go to science camp again!
00:20:17You're a bad mom!
00:20:19You're not even as good
00:20:20as Lydia's little finger!
00:20:22I'm gonna live with Lydia
00:20:23from now on!
00:20:24If this had been before,
00:20:26those words would have
00:20:27torn her heart apart.
00:20:28But now,
00:20:29she was already exhausted.
00:20:32Do whatever you want.
00:20:36The moment she stepped
00:20:37into the guest room,
00:20:38the housekeeper locked the door.
00:20:40Madam,
00:20:41Mr. Harrington said
00:20:42that since you pushed
00:20:43Miss Kendington,
00:20:44you need to calm down
00:20:45in here tonight.
00:20:47Eleanor did not respond.
00:20:48She lay on the bed
00:20:49and listened to the rain.
00:20:50In her dream,
00:20:51William promised her love
00:20:53and respect.
00:20:54But in the end,
00:20:55there was only her lying alone
00:20:56in a hospital bed while,
00:20:58on television.
00:20:58Her husband walked
00:20:59toward the wedding hall,
00:21:01hand in hand with Lydia.
00:21:02She laughed until tears fell,
00:21:04then murmured aloud,
00:21:07If there is another life,
00:21:09I will never love you again.
00:21:14Not love me?
00:21:16Eleanor, say that again.
00:21:17Don't open your eyes.
00:21:19Eleanor forced herself
00:21:20not to open her eyes.
00:21:21He saw that her eyes
00:21:22were closed,
00:21:23so she had only been
00:21:24talking in her sleep.
00:21:25He let out a breath.
00:21:28William,
00:21:29what are you doing?
00:21:31Are you worried
00:21:32about Eleanor?
00:21:33This is all my fault.
00:21:37This isn't your fault.
00:21:42William,
00:21:43if Eleanor finds out
00:21:44that you and I
00:21:45registered our marriage,
00:21:47will she be angry?
00:21:48It was an emergency then.
00:21:50Your father wanted
00:21:51to see you married
00:21:52before he died.
00:21:53Even if Eleanor knew
00:21:54she wouldn't blame you.
00:21:55Don't worry.
00:21:57She won't blame him.
00:21:58Not for the rest of her life.
00:22:00On Lydia's first day
00:22:01after moving in,
00:22:02she soaked
00:22:03William's laboratory manuscripts.
00:22:04They were all
00:22:05gene editing diagrams
00:22:06William had drawn by hand,
00:22:08stroke by stroke.
00:22:10He had worked himself
00:22:11into a severe stomach ulcer
00:22:13over them.
00:22:14But when he met
00:22:15Lydia's reddened eyes,
00:22:16he only took her hand.
00:22:19Wipe your hands.
00:22:21Wipe your hands.
00:22:21I'll handle it.
00:22:22The next day,
00:22:23Lydia redecorated
00:22:24the house inside and out.
00:22:27Sweet Fofie,
00:22:28your plush toys
00:22:29are too old.
00:22:30Let's throw them away,
00:22:32okay?
00:22:32Sophie immediately
00:22:33threw away
00:22:34the handmade dolls.
00:22:35Eleanor had sewn
00:22:35stitch by stitch.
00:22:37Winslow silently
00:22:38threw away
00:22:38the wooden boat
00:22:39in his hands.
00:22:42What a good boy.
00:22:44Those dolls and clothes
00:22:45had all been made
00:22:46by Eleanor herself
00:22:46from organic cotton
00:22:48and cashmere.
00:22:49When the children
00:22:49were little,
00:22:50they had allergies
00:22:51and could only
00:22:51touch natural fabrics.
00:22:54Now they were all
00:22:55thrown into the trash.
00:22:57At the dining table,
00:22:59Lydia sat at the head
00:23:00and laid out utensils
00:23:01for the two children.
00:23:03William poured
00:23:04sparkling water for her
00:23:05and prepared her napkin.
00:23:07His eyes carrying
00:23:08a restrained affection,
00:23:09Eleanor had never received.
00:23:11At night,
00:23:12the four of them
00:23:13swung in the backyard
00:23:14and looked at the stars.
00:23:16When Eleanor passed by,
00:23:18they ignored her completely
00:23:19as if she were invisible.
00:23:21What was even more absurd
00:23:23was that all three of them
00:23:24had always been demanding
00:23:25about quality of life.
00:23:27Now Lydia had ruined
00:23:28his manuscripts
00:23:29and William only said
00:23:31it was fine.
00:23:32The children wore
00:23:33casually washed clothes
00:23:34and ate take-out pizza
00:23:35and not one of them complained.
00:23:38William,
00:23:38who was obsessed
00:23:39with cleanliness,
00:23:40even personally cooked pancakes
00:23:42with Lydia.
00:23:44Mr. Harrington treats
00:23:46Miss Kentington so well.
00:23:49Poor Mrs. Harrington
00:23:50worked herself to the bone
00:23:51for so long
00:23:51and she still can't compare
00:23:52to a few days
00:23:53with Miss Kentington.
00:23:57Eleanor listened,
00:23:58her heart perfectly calm.
00:24:01That day,
00:24:01William pushed open
00:24:02the courtyard gate,
00:24:03his tone somewhat gentler.
00:24:06Enough.
00:24:06This has gone on long enough.
00:24:08I'm busy with work.
00:24:11From now on,
00:24:11you'll take care
00:24:12of the children again.
00:24:13Lydia is young
00:24:14and can't manage it.
00:24:16A belated birthday gift.
00:24:17Starting tomorrow,
00:24:18everything goes back to normal.
00:24:19This ends here.
00:24:20Eleanor looked at the bracelet.
00:24:23If this had been her last life,
00:24:24she would have been so happy.
00:24:26She couldn't sleep all night.
00:24:28Now it only feels ironic.
00:24:31I don't want it.
00:24:33Why?
00:24:34I'm not interested anymore.
00:24:36William frowned
00:24:37and forced it into her hand.
00:24:40Eleanor turned her head away
00:24:41and remained silent.
00:24:43William stared hard
00:24:44at her calm profile,
00:24:45a tight ache in his chest.
00:24:47In the end,
00:24:48he abruptly turned and left.
00:24:50She told the housekeeper
00:24:51to take the thing away
00:24:52and continued reading.
00:24:57Madam!
00:24:58Hurry to the back hill!
00:25:00Wingslow and Sophie
00:25:01fell into the river!
00:25:12In his memory,
00:25:13Wingslow and Sophie
00:25:14were the people
00:25:15she cared about most.
00:25:16But now the children
00:25:17had concussions.
00:25:19And she seemed
00:25:20completely unmoved.
00:25:22Mrs. Harrington
00:25:23has been like a different person lately.
00:25:25Last week was her birthday.
00:25:27She baked a lemon cake herself,
00:25:28but Mr. Harrington
00:25:29took the children's ski
00:25:30with Miss Kensington instead.
00:25:31Who could feel fine after that?
00:25:34Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
00:25:36I was only doing it
00:25:37out of friendship.
00:25:42You're not telling the truth.
00:25:44We're husband and wife.
00:25:47If you have something to say,
00:25:48say it.
00:25:49Husband and wife!
00:25:51One month after her rebirth,
00:25:53every servant at the Westchester estate
00:25:55noticed that Mrs. Harrington had changed.
00:25:58She no longer got up at 5.30
00:26:00in the morning to make breakfast.
00:26:01She no longer pushed the children to study.
00:26:04She no longer drove to the university
00:26:06to deliver nutritious meals to William.
00:26:08Even when Wingslow and Sophie
00:26:10fell off their horses
00:26:11and got concussions,
00:26:12she only calmly told the housekeeper
00:26:14to take them to the hospital.
00:26:15A night of wind and snow passed.
00:26:17William pushed the door open
00:26:19and stepped inside.
00:26:20He took off his coat
00:26:21and finally looked toward Eleanor,
00:26:23who was reading by the fireplace.
00:26:25What has been going on with you lately?
00:26:27Eleanor's hand paused on the page.
00:26:29Under the dim yellow light,
00:26:31the man in the white shirt
00:26:32looked cool and aristocratic,
00:26:33but his voice was as cold
00:26:35as a timer in a lab.
00:26:38Nothing.
00:26:39I've just been a little busy.
00:26:41Her calm distance
00:26:41made William's brows tighten.
00:26:43In his memory,
00:26:45Winslow and Sophie
00:26:46were the people she cared about most.
00:26:47But now the children had concussions.
00:26:51And she seemed completely unmoved.
00:26:53Mrs. Harrington has been
00:26:55like a different person lately.
00:26:56Last week was her birthday.
00:26:58She baked a lemon cake herself,
00:26:59but Mr. Harrington took the children
00:27:00skiing with Miss Kensington instead.
00:27:02Who could feel fine after that?
00:27:05Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
00:27:07I was only doing it out of friendship.
00:27:14You're not telling the truth.
00:27:15We're husband and wife.
00:27:18If you have something to say,
00:27:19say it.
00:27:21Husband and wife.
00:27:23Eleanor thought of the marriage certificate
00:27:25in the safe,
00:27:26the one with William and Lydia's names on it,
00:27:28and almost laughed.
00:27:30Before she could speak,
00:27:31the study door was shoved open.
00:27:33You're so mean!
00:27:35I was in the hospital,
00:27:37and you didn't even come see me!
00:27:38I hate you!
00:27:40Winslow stood to the side.
00:27:41His eyes red,
00:27:42his lips pressed tight.
00:27:44William was about to stop her,
00:27:46but Eleanor spoke first.
00:27:48Then go find Miss Kensington.
00:27:50Let her take care of you.
00:27:53Do you mean that?
00:27:55I do.
00:27:57Sophie burst into tears,
00:27:59sobbing as she screamed
00:28:00that Eleanor was the worst mother in the world.
00:28:02She cried until she could barely breathe,
00:28:03but Eleanor did not react at all.
00:28:05Fine.
00:28:06Suit yourself.
00:28:10Winslow called Dad twice,
00:28:12but no one answered.
00:28:14Anxious,
00:28:15he looked back at Eleanor
00:28:16and glared at her.
00:28:19Why do you always have to fight with Dad?
00:28:23You should go too.
00:28:25You didn't used to be like this.
00:28:28Eleanor did not answer.
00:28:30She simply shut him outside the door.
00:28:33She leaned back on the chaise
00:28:34and looked at the family portrait on the wall,
00:28:37remembering her last life.
00:28:40The Sinclair family went bankrupt.
00:28:42She was forced to drop out of school,
00:28:44and her stepfather wanted to marry her off
00:28:46to a 63-year-old hedge fund manager.
00:28:49It was William Harrington who saved her,
00:28:51saying he had chosen her as his wife.
00:28:53He was not only the heir to the Harrington family,
00:28:56but also Columbia University's chief scientist.
00:28:59A genius in gene editing,
00:29:00everyone envied her.
00:29:02But on the first day of their marriage,
00:29:04William said,
00:29:05I married you only to satisfy the family trust.
00:29:08Do your duty as Mrs. Harrington.
00:29:11She nodded with a pale face,
00:29:13but her heart still fell for him.
00:29:15After the wedding,
00:29:17she cooked for him herself,
00:29:18ironed his shirts,
00:29:20nursed his stomach problems,
00:29:21and helped him organize his lab data.
00:29:23During a difficult labor,
00:29:25she gritted her teeth
00:29:26and signed for surgical consent form alone.
00:29:29Later,
00:29:29when she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer,
00:29:32she kept it to herself
00:29:33and secretly went for treatment.
00:29:35At the end of her life,
00:29:36she lay in a hospice ward,
00:29:39her hair completely white.
00:29:40On the television,
00:29:42William had just won the Nobel Prize in medicine.
00:29:44While Winslow and Sophie
00:29:45had received their Ivy League acceptance letters,
00:29:48the host asked whom he wanted to thank most.
00:29:51The person I am most grateful to is my wife, Lydia.
00:29:55She was my first love,
00:29:56and she is the love of my life.
00:29:59Did I just hear that wrong?
00:30:03This is what you owe, Dad.
00:30:05Miss Kensington is the one
00:30:07who registered her marriage with him at City Hall.
00:30:09You came later.
00:30:10We have to catch a flight
00:30:12to Dad and Miss Kensington's wedding in Napa Valley.
00:30:17On the day she died,
00:30:18that grand wedding was playing on television.
00:30:21She closed her eyes in agony.
00:30:25After being reborn,
00:30:26she did only two things.
00:30:27Register for the graduate entrance exam
00:30:29and apply to graduate school,
00:30:31then go to the social security office.
00:30:33To replace her social security card
00:30:35and apply for a new passport.
00:30:37She had already taken the exam in secret.
00:30:39In one week,
00:30:40the admissions result would be out.
00:30:44Ooh.
00:30:45I'll leave this family for good.
00:30:47As she was thinking,
00:30:48a commotion rose outside the door.
00:30:53Madam,
00:30:54Mr. Harrington asks that you clear out
00:30:55the master bedroom for Miss Kensington.
00:30:57You are to move to the guest room.
00:31:00All right.
00:31:00Mr. Harrington said
00:31:02you should move your things yourself.
00:31:05Eleanor nodded,
00:31:06quickly packed a few clothes and her books,
00:31:09then picked up the box
00:31:10and prepared to leave.
00:31:11Before she reached the door,
00:31:13a hand struck hers hard
00:31:14and everything fell to the floor.
00:31:16She looked up
00:31:17and saw Lydia Kensington.
00:31:20Eleanor,
00:31:21long time no see.
00:31:23Eleanor crouched down
00:31:24to pick up her books.
00:31:25Eleanor,
00:31:26you're still so capable.
00:31:28Unlike me,
00:31:29all I know how to do
00:31:30is spend William's money.
00:31:32Even when you were having
00:31:33a difficult delivery,
00:31:34he was thinking of me.
00:31:35He transferred most
00:31:36of the family assets
00:31:37into a trust for me to manage
00:31:39and even let me join
00:31:40the research institute.
00:31:42Eleanor flinched from the pain
00:31:43and shook her off.
00:31:45Lydia staggered backward
00:31:46and fell right into William's arms
00:31:48as he rushed over.
00:31:49Winslow and Sophie
00:31:50followed behind him,
00:31:52surrounding her with weird faces.
00:31:54Lydia,
00:31:55are you all right?
00:31:56I'm fine.
00:32:00William,
00:32:01maybe I should just leave.
00:32:03Eleanor doesn't seem
00:32:04to welcome me.
00:32:05William looked at Eleanor
00:32:06in silence.
00:32:08Eleanor withdrew her gaze
00:32:09from her son and daughter
00:32:10and hid her bruised hand
00:32:11behind her back.
00:32:13I'm not willing.
00:32:14I'll leave right away.
00:32:18You're really moving out?
00:32:21You're leaving all this behind too?
00:32:23It was the only gift
00:32:24he had ever given her.
00:32:25Back then,
00:32:26she had been so happy
00:32:27she couldn't sleep all night.
00:32:29You're the one who told me
00:32:30to clear out the room.
00:32:31I'm not the one
00:32:32abandoning it.
00:32:33Then why aren't you
00:32:34taking it with you?
00:32:35There are too many things.
00:32:37I can't carry them.
00:32:39Sophie ran over.
00:32:40When she saw her plush toy
00:32:41in the box,
00:32:42her little face flushed red.
00:32:44She's throwing my things away!
00:32:46If you keep acting like this,
00:32:48I'll never go to science camp again!
00:32:51You're a bad mom!
00:32:53You're not even as good
00:32:54as Lydia's little finger!
00:32:55I'm going to live with Lydia
00:32:57from now on!
00:32:58If this had been before,
00:33:00those words would have
00:33:01torn her heart apart.
00:33:02But now,
00:33:03she was already exhausted.
00:33:06Do whatever you want.
00:33:09The moment she stepped
00:33:11into the guest room,
00:33:12the housekeeper
00:33:12locked the door.
00:33:14Madam,
00:33:15Mr. Harrington said
00:33:16that since you pushed
00:33:17Miss Kendington,
00:33:18you need to calm down
00:33:18in here tonight.
00:33:20Eleanor did not respond.
00:33:22She lay on the bed
00:33:23and listened to the rain.
00:33:24In her dream,
00:33:25William promised her love
00:33:26and respect.
00:33:27But in the end,
00:33:29there was only her
00:33:29lying alone
00:33:30in a hospital bed
00:33:31while,
00:33:31on television.
00:33:32Her husband walked
00:33:33toward the wedding hall,
00:33:34hand in hand with Lydia.
00:33:36She laughed until tears fell,
00:33:37then murmured aloud,
00:33:41If there is another life,
00:33:43I will never love you again.
00:33:47Not love me?
00:33:49Eleanor, say that again.
00:33:51Don't open your eyes.
00:33:53Eleanor forced herself
00:33:54not to open her eyes.
00:33:55He saw that her eyes
00:33:56were closed,
00:33:57so she had only been
00:33:58talking in her sleep.
00:33:59He let out a breath.
00:34:02William,
00:34:03what are you doing?
00:34:05Are you worried
00:34:06about Eleanor?
00:34:07This is all my fault.
00:34:10This isn't your fault.
00:34:16William,
00:34:17if Eleanor finds out
00:34:18that you and I
00:34:19registered our marriage,
00:34:20will she be angry?
00:34:22It was an emergency then.
00:34:24Your father wanted
00:34:25to see you married
00:34:26before he died,
00:34:27even if Eleanor knew
00:34:28she wouldn't blame you.
00:34:30Don't worry.
00:34:31She won't blame him.
00:34:32Not for the rest of her life.
00:34:34On Lydia's first day
00:34:35after moving in,
00:34:36she soaked
00:34:37William's laboratory manuscripts.
00:34:38They were all
00:34:39gene editing diagrams
00:34:40William had drawn by hand,
00:34:42stroke by stroke.
00:34:44He had worked himself
00:34:45into a severe stomach ulcer
00:34:46over them.
00:34:48But when he met
00:34:49Lydia's reddened eyes,
00:34:50he only took her hand.
00:34:53Wipe your hands.
00:34:54I'll handle it.
00:34:56The next day,
00:34:57Lydia redecorated
00:34:58the house inside and out.
00:35:00Sweet Fofie,
00:35:02your plush toys
00:35:03are too old.
00:35:04Let's throw them away,
00:35:05okay?
00:35:06Sophie immediately
00:35:07threw away
00:35:07the handmade dolls.
00:35:08Eleanor had sewn
00:35:09stitch by stitch.
00:35:11Winslow silently
00:35:11threw away
00:35:12the wooden boat
00:35:13in his hands.
00:35:16What a good boy.
00:35:18Those dolls and clothes
00:35:19had all been made
00:35:19by Eleanor herself
00:35:20from organic cotton
00:35:22and cashmere.
00:35:23When the children
00:35:23were little,
00:35:24they had allergies
00:35:25and could only
00:35:25touch natural fabrics.
00:35:28Now they were all
00:35:29thrown into the trash.
00:35:31At the dining table,
00:35:33Lydia sat at the head
00:35:34and laid out utensils
00:35:35for the two children.
00:35:37William poured
00:35:38sparkling water for her
00:35:39and prepared her napkin,
00:35:41his eyes carrying
00:35:42a restrained affection
00:35:43Eleanor had never received.
00:35:45At night,
00:35:46the four of them
00:35:47swung in the backyard
00:35:48and looked at the stars.
00:35:50When Eleanor passed by,
00:35:52they ignored her completely,
00:35:53as if she were invisible.
00:35:55What was even more absurd
00:35:56was that all three of them
00:35:58had always been demanding
00:35:59about quality of life.
00:36:01Now Lydia had ruined
00:36:02his manuscripts,
00:36:03and William only said
00:36:04it was fine.
00:36:06The children wore
00:36:07casually washed clothes
00:36:08and ate take-out pizza,
00:36:10and not one of them complained.
00:36:12William,
00:36:12who was obsessed
00:36:13with cleanliness,
00:36:15even personally cooked
00:36:16pancakes with Lydia.
00:36:18Mr. Harrington
00:36:19treats Miss Kentington
00:36:20so well.
00:36:22Poor Mrs. Harrington
00:36:24worked herself to the bone
00:36:25for so long,
00:36:25and she still can't compare
00:36:26to a few days
00:36:27with Miss Kentington.
00:36:31Eleanor listened,
00:36:32her heart perfectly calm.
00:36:34That day,
00:36:35William pushed open
00:36:36the courtyard gate,
00:36:37his tone somewhat gentler.
00:36:39Enough.
00:36:40This has gone on long enough.
00:36:42I'm busy with work.
00:36:44From now on,
00:36:45you'll take care
00:36:46of the children again.
00:36:47Lydia is young
00:36:48and can't manage it,
00:36:49a belated birthday gift.
00:36:51Starting tomorrow,
00:36:52everything goes back
00:36:53to normal.
00:36:53This ends here.
00:36:54Eleanor looked
00:36:55at the bracelet.
00:36:56If this had been
00:36:57her last life,
00:36:58she would have been
00:36:59so happy.
00:37:00She couldn't sleep
00:37:01all night.
00:37:02Now it only feels ironic.
00:37:04I don't want it.
00:37:07Why?
00:37:08I'm not interested anymore.
00:37:10William frowned
00:37:11and forced it
00:37:12into her hand.
00:37:14Eleanor turned her head away
00:37:15and remained silent.
00:37:17William stared hard
00:37:18at her calm profile,
00:37:19a tight ache
00:37:20in his chest.
00:37:21In the end,
00:37:22he abruptly turned
00:37:23and left.
00:37:24She told the housekeeper
00:37:25to take the thing away
00:37:26and continued reading.
00:37:31Madam!
00:37:32Hurry to the back hill!
00:37:34Winslow and Sophie
00:37:35fell into the river!
00:37:46In his memory,
00:37:47Winslow and Sophie
00:37:48were the people
00:37:49she cared about most.
00:37:50But now the children
00:37:51had concussions.
00:37:53And she seemed
00:37:54completely unmoved.
00:37:56Mrs. Harrington
00:37:57has been like
00:37:57a different person lately.
00:37:59Last week was her birthday.
00:38:00She baked a lemon cake herself,
00:38:02but Mr. Harrington
00:38:03took the children's ski
00:38:03with Miss Kensington instead.
00:38:05Who could feel fine
00:38:06after that?
00:38:08Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
00:38:10I was only doing it
00:38:11out of friendship.
00:38:16You're not telling the truth.
00:38:18We're husband and wife.
00:38:20If you have something to say,
00:38:22say it.
00:38:23Husband
00:38:24and wife!
00:38:25One month after her rebirth,
00:38:27every servant
00:38:28at the Westchester estate
00:38:29noticed that Mrs. Harrington
00:38:31had changed.
00:38:32She no longer got up
00:38:33at 5.30
00:38:34in the morning
00:38:34to make breakfast.
00:38:35She no longer
00:38:36pushed the children
00:38:37to study.
00:38:38She no longer
00:38:39drove to the university
00:38:40to deliver nutritious
00:38:41meals to William.
00:38:42Even when Winslow
00:38:43and Sophie fell off
00:38:44their horses
00:38:44and got concussions,
00:38:46she only calmly
00:38:47told the housekeeper
00:38:48to take them
00:38:48to the hospital.
00:38:49A night of wind
00:38:50and snow passed.
00:38:51William pushed
00:38:52the door open
00:38:52and stepped inside.
00:38:54He took off his coat
00:38:55and finally looked
00:38:56toward Eleanor,
00:38:57who was reading
00:38:57by the fireplace.
00:38:59What has been going
00:39:00on with you lately?
00:39:01Eleanor's hand
00:39:02paused on the page
00:39:03under the dim
00:39:03yellow light.
00:39:04The man in the white shirt
00:39:06looked cool
00:39:06and aristocratic,
00:39:07but his voice
00:39:08was as cold
00:39:09as a timer
00:39:09in a lab.
00:39:12Nothing.
00:39:13I've just been
00:39:13a little busy.
00:39:14Her calm distance
00:39:15made William's brows
00:39:16tighten.
00:39:17In his memory,
00:39:18Winslow and Sophie
00:39:19were the people
00:39:20she cared about most.
00:39:21But now the children
00:39:22had concussions,
00:39:24and she seemed
00:39:25completely unmoved.
00:39:27Mrs. Harrington
00:39:28has been like
00:39:29a different person lately.
00:39:30Last week
00:39:31was her birthday.
00:39:31She baked a lemon cake
00:39:33herself,
00:39:33but Mr. Harrington
00:39:34took the children
00:39:34skiing with Miss Kensington
00:39:35instead.
00:39:36Who could feel
00:39:37fine after that?
00:39:39Lydia is my mentor's
00:39:40daughter.
00:39:41I was only doing it
00:39:42out of friendship.
00:39:47You're not telling
00:39:48the truth.
00:39:49We're husband and wife.
00:39:52If you have something
00:39:52to say, say it.
00:39:54Husband
00:39:55and wife.
00:39:57Eleanor thought
00:39:57of the marriage
00:39:58certificate in the safe,
00:39:59the one with William
00:40:00and Lydia's names on it,
00:40:02and almost laughed.
00:40:04Before she could speak,
00:40:05the study door
00:40:06was shoved open.
00:40:07You're so mean!
00:40:09I was in the hospital
00:40:10and you didn't even
00:40:11come see me!
00:40:12I hate you!
00:40:13Winslow stood to the side.
00:40:15His eyes red,
00:40:16his lips pressed tight.
00:40:18William was about
00:40:19to stop her,
00:40:20but Eleanor spoke first.
00:40:21Then go find
00:40:22Miss Kensington.
00:40:23Let her take care of you.
00:40:27Do you mean that?
00:40:29I do.
00:40:31Sophie burst into tears,
00:40:32sobbing as she screamed
00:40:34that Eleanor was
00:40:34the worst mother
00:40:35in the world.
00:40:36She cried until
00:40:36she could barely breathe,
00:40:37but Eleanor did not
00:40:38react at all.
00:40:39Fine.
00:40:40Suit yourself.
00:40:44Winslow called
00:40:45Dad twice,
00:40:46but no one answered.
00:40:48Anxious,
00:40:49he looked back
00:40:49at Eleanor
00:40:50and glared at her.
00:40:52Why do you always
00:40:54have to fight
00:40:54with Dad?
00:40:57You should go too.
00:40:59You didn't used
00:41:00to be like this.
00:41:02Eleanor did not answer.
00:41:03She simply
00:41:04shut him
00:41:04outside the door.
00:41:07She leaned back
00:41:08on the chaise
00:41:08and looked at the
00:41:09family portrait
00:41:10on the wall,
00:41:11remembering her
00:41:11last life.
00:41:14The Sinclair family
00:41:15went bankrupt.
00:41:16She was forced
00:41:17to drop out
00:41:17of school,
00:41:18and her stepfather
00:41:19wanted to marry her off
00:41:20to a 63-year-old
00:41:21hedge fund manager.
00:41:22It was William
00:41:23Harrington
00:41:24who saved her,
00:41:25saying he had
00:41:26chosen her
00:41:26as his wife.
00:41:27He was not only
00:41:28the heir to the
00:41:29Harrington family,
00:41:29but also Columbia
00:41:31University's
00:41:31chief scientist.
00:41:32A genius
00:41:33in gene editing,
00:41:34everyone envied her,
00:41:35but on the first day
00:41:36of their marriage,
00:41:37William said,
00:41:38I married you only
00:41:40to satisfy the
00:41:40family trust.
00:41:41Do your duty
00:41:42as Mrs. Harrington.
00:41:45She nodded
00:41:46with a pale face,
00:41:46but her heart
00:41:48still fell for him.
00:41:49After the wedding,
00:41:50she cooked for him
00:41:51herself,
00:41:52ironed his shirts,
00:41:53nursed his stomach
00:41:54problems,
00:41:55and helped him
00:41:56organize his lab data.
00:41:57During a difficult
00:41:58labor,
00:41:59she gritted her teeth
00:41:59and signed
00:42:00for surgical consent
00:42:01form alone.
00:42:02Later,
00:42:03when she was diagnosed
00:42:04with pancreatic cancer,
00:42:06she kept it to herself
00:42:07and secretly
00:42:08went for treatment.
00:42:09At the end of her life,
00:42:10she lay in a hospice ward,
00:42:12her hair completely white.
00:42:14On the television,
00:42:15William had just won
00:42:16the Nobel Prize in medicine.
00:42:18While Winslow and Sophie
00:42:19had received their
00:42:20Ivy League acceptance letters,
00:42:21the host asked
00:42:22whom he wanted
00:42:23to thank most.
00:42:25The person I am
00:42:26most grateful to
00:42:27is my wife, Lydia.
00:42:29She was my first love,
00:42:30and she is the love
00:42:31of my life.
00:42:32Did I just hear
00:42:34that wrong?
00:42:37This is what you owe Dad.
00:42:39Miss Kensington
00:42:40is the one who registered
00:42:41her marriage with him
00:42:42at City Hall.
00:42:43You came later.
00:42:44We have to catch a flight
00:42:45to Dad and Miss Kennington's
00:42:46wedding in Napa Valley.
00:42:50On the day she died,
00:42:52that grand wedding
00:42:53was playing on television.
00:42:55She closed her eyes
00:42:56in agony.
00:42:58After being reborn,
00:43:00she did only two things.
00:43:01Register for the
00:43:02graduate entrance exam
00:43:03and apply to
00:43:04graduate school.
00:43:05Then go to the
00:43:06social security office
00:43:07to replace her
00:43:08social security card
00:43:09and apply for
00:43:10a new passport.
00:43:11She had already
00:43:11taken the exam in secret.
00:43:13In one week,
00:43:14the admissions result
00:43:15would be out.
00:43:17Ooh.
00:43:18I'll leave this family
00:43:20for good.
00:43:21As she was thinking,
00:43:22a commotion rose
00:43:23outside the door.
00:43:26Madam,
00:43:28Mr. Harrington asks
00:43:29that you clear out
00:43:29the master bedroom
00:43:30for Miss Kennington.
00:43:31You are to move
00:43:32to the guest room.
00:43:34All right.
00:43:35Mr. Harrington said
00:43:36you should move
00:43:37your things yourself.
00:43:39Eleanor nodded,
00:43:40quickly packed a few
00:43:41clothes and her books,
00:43:42then picked up the box
00:43:44and prepared to leave.
00:43:45Before she reached
00:43:46the door,
00:43:47a hand struck hers hard
00:43:48and everything fell
00:43:49to the floor.
00:43:50She looked up
00:43:51and saw Lydia Kensington.
00:43:54Eleanor,
00:43:55long time no see.
00:43:57Eleanor crouched down
00:43:58to pick up her books.
00:43:59Eleanor,
00:44:00you're still so capable.
00:44:02Unlike me,
00:44:03all I know how to do
00:44:04is spend William's money.
00:44:05Even when you were
00:44:06having a difficult delivery,
00:44:07he was thinking of me.
00:44:09He transferred most
00:44:10of the family assets
00:44:11into a trust for me
00:44:12to manage
00:44:12and even let me join
00:44:14the research institute.
00:44:15Eleanor flinched
00:44:16from the pain
00:44:17and shook her off.
00:44:18Lydia staggered backward
00:44:19and fell right into
00:44:21William's arms
00:44:21as he rushed over.
00:44:23Winslow and Sophie
00:44:24followed behind him,
00:44:25surrounding her
00:44:26with worried faces.
00:44:28Lydia,
00:44:29are you alright?
00:44:30I'm fine.
00:44:34William,
00:44:35maybe I should just leave.
00:44:37Eleanor doesn't seem
00:44:37to welcome me.
00:44:39William looked at
00:44:40Eleanor in silence.
00:44:41Eleanor withdrew her gaze
00:44:43from her son and daughter
00:44:44and hid her bruised hand
00:44:45behind her back.
00:44:46I'm not unwilling.
00:44:48I'll leave right away.
00:44:52You're really moving out?
00:44:55You're leaving
00:44:55all this behind too?
00:44:57It was the only gift
00:44:58he had ever given her.
00:44:59Back then,
00:45:00she had been so happy
00:45:01she couldn't sleep all night.
00:45:03You're the one
00:45:03who told me
00:45:04to clear out the room.
00:45:05I'm not the one
00:45:06abandoning it.
00:45:07Then why aren't you
00:45:08taking it with you?
00:45:09There are too many things.
00:45:11I can't carry them.
00:45:12Sophie ran over.
00:45:14When she saw her
00:45:14plush toy in the box,
00:45:16her little face
00:45:16flushed red.
00:45:17She's throwing
00:45:18my things away.
00:45:20If you keep acting
00:45:21like this,
00:45:21I'll never go
00:45:22to science camp again.
00:45:25You're a bad mom.
00:45:26You're not even
00:45:27as good as Lydia's
00:45:28little finger.
00:45:29I'm gonna live
00:45:30with Lydia
00:45:31from now on.
00:45:32If this had been before,
00:45:33those words
00:45:34would have torn
00:45:35her heart apart.
00:45:36But now,
00:45:36she was already exhausted.
00:45:39Do whatever you want.
00:45:43The moment she stepped
00:45:44into the guest room,
00:45:45the housekeeper
00:45:46locked the door.
00:45:48Madam,
00:45:49Mr. Harrington said
00:45:50that since you pushed
00:45:51Miss Kendington,
00:45:51you need to calm down
00:45:52in here tonight.
00:45:54Eleanor did not respond.
00:45:56She lay on the bed
00:45:57and listened to the rain.
00:45:58In her dream,
00:45:59William promised her
00:46:00love and respect.
00:46:01But in the end,
00:46:02there was only her
00:46:03lying alone
00:46:04in a hospital bed
00:46:05while on television.
00:46:06Her husband walked
00:46:07toward the wedding hall,
00:46:08hand in hand
00:46:09with Lydia.
00:46:09She laughed until tears fell,
00:46:11then murmured aloud.
00:46:15If there is another life,
00:46:17I will never love you again.
00:46:21Not love me?
00:46:23Eleanor, say that again.
00:46:25Don't open your eyes.
00:46:26Eleanor forced herself
00:46:28not to open her eyes.
00:46:29He saw that her eyes
00:46:30were closed,
00:46:31so she had only been
00:46:32talking in her sleep.
00:46:33He let out a breath.
00:46:36William,
00:46:37what are you doing?
00:46:39Are you worried
00:46:39about Eleanor?
00:46:41This is all my fault.
00:46:44This isn't your fault.
00:46:50William,
00:46:51if Eleanor finds out
00:46:52that you and I
00:46:53registered our marriage,
00:46:54will she be angry?
00:46:56It was an emergency then.
00:46:58Your father wanted
00:46:59to see you married
00:46:59before he died.
00:47:01Even if Eleanor knew
00:47:02she wouldn't blame you.
00:47:03Don't worry.
00:47:04She won't blame him.
00:47:06Not for the rest of her life.
00:47:07On Lydia's first day
00:47:09after moving in,
00:47:10she soaked
00:47:10William's laboratory manuscripts.
00:47:12They were all
00:47:13gene editing diagrams.
00:47:14William had drawn by hand,
00:47:16stroke by stroke.
00:47:17He had worked himself
00:47:19into a severe
00:47:19stomach ulcer over them.
00:47:22But when he met
00:47:23Lydia's reddened eyes,
00:47:24he only took her hand.
00:47:27Wipe your hands.
00:47:28I'll handle it.
00:47:30The next day,
00:47:31Lydia redecorated
00:47:32the house inside and out.
00:47:34Sweet Fofie,
00:47:36your plush toys
00:47:37are too old.
00:47:38Let's throw them away,
00:47:39okay?
00:47:40Sophie immediately
00:47:41threw away
00:47:41the handmade dolls.
00:47:42Eleanor had sewn
00:47:43stitch by stitch.
00:47:44Winslow silently
00:47:45threw away
00:47:46the wooden boat
00:47:46in his hands.
00:47:50What a good boy.
00:47:51Those dolls and clothes
00:47:53had all been made
00:47:53by Eleanor herself
00:47:54from organic cotton
00:47:55and cashmere.
00:47:56When the children
00:47:57were little,
00:47:58they had allergies
00:47:58and could only
00:47:59touch natural fabrics.
00:48:02Now they were all
00:48:03thrown into the trash.
00:48:05At the dining table,
00:48:06Lydia sat at the head
00:48:07and laid out utensils
00:48:09for the two children.
00:48:11William poured
00:48:11sparkling water for her
00:48:13and prepared her napkin,
00:48:14his eyes carrying
00:48:16a restrained affection
00:48:17Eleanor had never received.
00:48:19At night,
00:48:20the four of them
00:48:21swung in the backyard
00:48:21and looked at the stars.
00:48:24When Eleanor passed by,
00:48:26they ignored her completely,
00:48:27as if she were invisible.
00:48:29What was even more absurd
00:48:30was that all three of them
00:48:31had always been demanding
00:48:32about quality of life.
00:48:34Now Lydia had ruined
00:48:36his manuscripts,
00:48:37and William only said
00:48:38it was fine.
00:48:39The children wore
00:48:40casually washed clothes
00:48:41and ate take-out pizza,
00:48:43and not one of them complained.
00:48:45William,
00:48:46who was obsessed
00:48:47with cleanliness,
00:48:48even personally cooked
00:48:49pancakes with Lydia.
00:48:52Mr. Harrington
00:48:53treats Miss Kentington
00:48:54so well.
00:48:56Poor Mrs. Harrington
00:48:57worked herself to the bone
00:48:58for so long,
00:48:59and she still can't compare
00:49:00to a few days
00:49:00with Miss Kentington.
00:49:04Eleanor listened,
00:49:05her heart perfectly calm.
00:49:08That day,
00:49:09William pushed open
00:49:10the courtyard gate,
00:49:11his tone somewhat gentler.
00:49:13Enough.
00:49:14This has gone on long enough.
00:49:16I'm busy with work.
00:49:18From now on,
00:49:19you'll take care
00:49:20of the children again.
00:49:21Lydia is young
00:49:22and can't manage it.
00:49:23A belated birthday gift.
00:49:25Starting tomorrow,
00:49:26everything goes back to normal.
00:49:27This ends here.
00:49:28Eleanor looked at the bracelet.
00:49:30If this had been
00:49:31her last life,
00:49:32she would have been so happy.
00:49:34She couldn't sleep all night.
00:49:35Now it only feels ironic.
00:49:38I don't want it.
00:49:41Why?
00:49:42I'm not interested anymore.
00:49:44William frowned
00:49:45and forced it into her hand.
00:49:48Eleanor turned her head away
00:49:49and remained silent.
00:49:51William stared hard
00:49:52at her calm profile,
00:49:53a tight ache in his chest.
00:49:55In the end,
00:49:56he abruptly turned and left.
00:49:58She told the housekeeper
00:49:59to take the thing away
00:50:00and continued reading.
00:50:05Madam!
00:50:06Hurry to the back hill!
00:50:08Winslow and Sophie
00:50:09fell into the river!
00:50:19In his memory,
00:50:21Winslow and Sophie
00:50:22were the people
00:50:23she cared about most.
00:50:24But now the children
00:50:25had concussions.
00:50:27And she seemed
00:50:28completely unmoved.
00:50:30Mrs. Harrington
00:50:31has been like
00:50:31a different person lately.
00:50:33Last week was her birthday.
00:50:34She baked a lemon cake herself,
00:50:36but Mr. Harrington
00:50:36took the children's ski
00:50:37with Miss Kensington instead.
00:50:39Who could feel fine after that?
00:50:42Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
00:50:44I was only doing it
00:50:45out of friendship.
00:50:50You're not telling the truth.
00:50:52We're husband and wife.
00:50:54If you have something to say,
00:50:56say it.
00:50:57Husband
00:50:57and wife!
00:50:58One month after her rebirth,
00:51:01every servant at the Westchester estate
00:51:03noticed that Mrs. Harrington had changed.
00:51:05She no longer got up at 5.30
00:51:07in the morning to make breakfast.
00:51:09She no longer pushed the children to study.
00:51:12She no longer drove to the university
00:51:14to deliver nutritious meals to William.
00:51:16Even when Winslow and Sophie
00:51:17fell off their horses
00:51:18and got concussions,
00:51:20she only calmly told the housekeeper
00:51:21to take them to the hospital.
00:51:23A night of wind and snow passed.
00:51:25William pushed the door open
00:51:26and stepped inside.
00:51:28He took off his coat
00:51:29and finally looked toward Eleanor,
00:51:31who was reading by the fireplace.
00:51:33What has been going on with you lately?
00:51:35Eleanor's hand paused on the page
00:51:36under the dim yellow light.
00:51:38The man in the white shirt
00:51:39looked cool and aristocratic,
00:51:41but his voice was as cold
00:51:42as a timer in a lab.
00:51:45Nothing.
00:51:46I've just been a little busy.
00:51:48Her calm distance
00:51:49made William's brows tighten.
00:51:50In his memory,
00:51:52Winslow and Sophie
00:51:53were the people she cared about most.
00:51:55But now the children had concussions.
00:51:58And she seemed completely unmoved.
00:52:01Mrs. Harrington has been
00:52:02like a different person lately.
00:52:04Last week was her birthday.
00:52:05She baked a lemon cake herself,
00:52:07but Mr. Harrington took the children
00:52:08skiing with Miss Kensington instead.
00:52:10Who could feel fine after that?
00:52:13Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
00:52:15I was only doing it out of friendship.
00:52:21You're not telling the truth.
00:52:23We're husband and wife.
00:52:25If you have something to say,
00:52:27say it.
00:52:28Husband and wife.
00:52:31Eleanor thought of the marriage certificate
00:52:32in the safe,
00:52:33the one with William and Lydia's names on it,
00:52:36and almost laughed.
00:52:37Before she could speak,
00:52:39the study door was shoved open.
00:52:41You're so mean!
00:52:42I was in the hospital
00:52:44and you didn't even come see me!
00:52:46I hate you!
00:52:47Winslow stood to the side.
00:52:49His eyes red,
00:52:50his lips pressed tight.
00:52:52William was about to stop her,
00:52:54but Eleanor spoke first.
00:52:55Then go find Miss Kensington.
00:52:57Let her take care of you.
00:53:01Do you mean that?
00:53:03I do.
00:53:04Sophie burst into tears,
00:53:06sobbing as she screamed
00:53:07that Eleanor was the worst mother in the world.
00:53:09She cried until she could barely breathe,
00:53:11but Eleanor did not react at all.
00:53:13Fine.
00:53:14Suit yourself.
00:53:18Winslow called Dad twice,
00:53:20but no one answered.
00:53:22Anxious,
00:53:22he looked back at Eleanor
00:53:24and glared at her.
00:53:26Why do you always have to fight with Dad?
00:53:30You should go too.
00:53:32You didn't used to be like this.
00:53:36Eleanor did not answer.
00:53:37She simply shut him outside the door.
00:53:40She leaned back on the chaise
00:53:42and looked at the family portrait on the wall,
00:53:45remembering her last life.
00:53:47The Sinclair family went bankrupt.
00:53:50She was forced to drop out of school,
00:53:52and her stepfather wanted to marry her off
00:53:54to a 63-year-old hedge fund manager.
00:53:56It was William Harrington who saved her,
00:53:59saying he had chosen her as his wife.
00:54:01He was not only the heir to the Harrington family,
00:54:03but also Columbia University's chief scientist,
00:54:06a genius in gene editing.
00:54:08Everyone envied her,
00:54:09but on the first day of their marriage,
00:54:11William said,
00:54:12I married you only to satisfy the family trust.
00:54:15Do your duty as Mrs. Harrington.
00:54:18She nodded with a pale face,
00:54:20but her heart still fell for him.
00:54:23After the wedding,
00:54:24she cooked for him herself,
00:54:26ironed his shirts,
00:54:27nursed his stomach problems,
00:54:29and helped him organize his lab data.
00:54:31During a difficult labor,
00:54:32she gritted her teeth
00:54:33and signed for surgical consent form alone.
00:54:36Later,
00:54:37when she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer,
00:54:40she kept it to herself
00:54:41and secretly went for treatment.
00:54:43At the end of her life,
00:54:44she lay in a hospice ward,
00:54:46her hair completely white.
00:54:48On the television,
00:54:49William had just won the Nobel Prize in medicine.
00:54:52While Winslow and Sophie
00:54:53had received their Ivy League acceptance letters,
00:54:55the host asked whom he wanted to thank most.
00:54:59The person I am most grateful to
00:55:01is my wife, Lydia.
00:55:02She was my first love,
00:55:04and she is the love of my life.
00:55:06Did I just hear that wrong?
00:55:11This is what you owe Dad.
00:55:13Miss Kensington is the one
00:55:14who registered her marriage with him at City Hall.
00:55:17You came later.
00:55:18We have to catch a flight
00:55:19to Dad and Miss Kensington's wedding in Napa Valley.
00:55:24On the day she died,
00:55:26that grand wedding was playing on television.
00:55:29She closed her eyes in agony.
00:55:32After being reborn,
00:55:34she did only two things.
00:55:35Register for the graduate entrance exam
00:55:37and apply to graduate school.
00:55:39Then go to the social security office
00:55:41to replace her social security card
00:55:43and apply for a new passport.
00:55:45She had already taken the exam in secret.
00:55:47In one week,
00:55:48the admissions result would be out.
00:55:51Ooh.
00:55:52I'll leave this family for good.
00:55:54As she was thinking,
00:55:56a commotion rose outside the door.
00:56:00Madam,
00:56:02Mr. Harrington asks
00:56:02that you clear out the master bedroom
00:56:04for Miss Kensington.
00:56:05You are to move to the guest room.
00:56:08All right.
00:56:08Mr. Harrington said
00:56:10you should move your things yourself.
00:56:13Eleanor nodded,
00:56:14quickly packed a few clothes and her books,
00:56:16then picked up the box
00:56:17and prepared to leave.
00:56:19Before she reached the door,
00:56:20a hand struck hers hard
00:56:22and everything fell to the floor.
00:56:24She looked up
00:56:25and saw Lydia Kensington.
00:56:28Eleanor,
00:56:29long time no see.
00:56:31Eleanor crouched down
00:56:32to pick up her books.
00:56:33Eleanor,
00:56:34you're still so capable.
00:56:35Unlike me,
00:56:36all I know how to do
00:56:38is spend William's money.
00:56:39Even when you were having
00:56:40a difficult delivery,
00:56:41he was thinking of me.
00:56:43He transferred most of the family assets
00:56:45into a trust for me to manage
00:56:46and even let me join
00:56:48the research institute.
00:56:49Eleanor flinched from the pain
00:56:51and shook her off.
00:56:52Lydia staggered backward
00:56:53and fell right into William's arms
00:56:55as he rushed over.
00:56:57Winslow and Sophie followed behind him,
00:56:59surrounding her with worried faces.
00:57:02Lydia,
00:57:03are you all right?
00:57:04I'm fine.
00:57:08William,
00:57:09maybe I should just leave.
00:57:10Eleanor doesn't seem to welcome me.
00:57:13William looked at Eleanor in silence.
00:57:15Eleanor withdrew her gaze
00:57:17from her son and daughter
00:57:18and hid her bruised hand
00:57:19behind her back.
00:57:20I'm not unwilling.
00:57:22I'll leave right away.
00:57:26You're really moving out?
00:57:28You're leaving all this behind too?
00:57:30It was the only gift
00:57:32he had ever given her.
00:57:33Back then,
00:57:33she had been so happy
00:57:35she couldn't sleep all night.
00:57:36You're the one who told me
00:57:37to clear out the room.
00:57:38I'm not the one abandoning it.
00:57:41Then why aren't you
00:57:42taking it with you?
00:57:43There are too many things.
00:57:44I can't carry them.
00:57:46Sophie ran over.
00:57:47When she saw her plush toy
00:57:49in the box,
00:57:49her little face flushed red.
00:57:51She's throwing my things away!
00:57:53If you keep acting like this,
00:57:55I'll never go to science camp again!
00:57:58You're a bad mom!
00:58:00You're not even as good
00:58:01as Lydia's little finger!
00:58:03I'm gonna live with Lydia
00:58:04from now on!
00:58:05If this had been before,
00:58:07those words would have
00:58:08torn her heart apart.
00:58:10But now,
00:58:10she was already exhausted.
00:58:13Do whatever you want.
00:58:17The moment she stepped
00:58:18into the guest room,
00:58:19the housekeeper locked the door.
00:58:22Madam,
00:58:23Mr. Harrington said that
00:58:24since you pushed Miss Kendington,
00:58:25you need to calm down
00:58:26in here tonight.
00:58:28Eleanor did not respond.
00:58:30She lay on the bed
00:58:31and listened to the rain.
00:58:32In her dream,
00:58:33William promised her love
00:58:34and respect.
00:58:35But in the end,
00:58:36there was only her lying alone
00:58:38in a hospital bed while
00:58:39on television.
00:58:40Her husband walked
00:58:41toward the wedding hall,
00:58:42hand in hand with Lydia.
00:58:43She laughed until tears fell,
00:58:45then murmured aloud,
00:58:49If there is another life,
00:58:51I will never love you again.
00:58:55Not love me?
00:58:57Eleanor,
00:58:58say that again.
00:58:59Don't open your eyes.
00:59:00Eleanor forced herself
00:59:01not to open her eyes.
00:59:03He saw that her eyes
00:59:04were closed,
00:59:04so she had only been
00:59:06talking in her sleep.
00:59:07He let out a breath.
00:59:09William,
00:59:10what are you doing?
00:59:12Are you worried about Eleanor?
00:59:14This is all my fault.
00:59:18This isn't your fault.
00:59:23William,
00:59:24if Eleanor finds out
00:59:26that you and I
00:59:27registered our marriage,
00:59:28will she be angry?
00:59:30It was an emergency then.
00:59:32Your father wanted to see you
00:59:33married before he died.
00:59:34Even if Eleanor knew,
00:59:36she wouldn't blame you.
00:59:37Don't worry.
00:59:38She won't blame him.
00:59:40Not for the rest of her life.
00:59:41On Lydia's first day
00:59:42after moving in,
00:59:43she soaked
00:59:44William's laboratory manuscripts.
00:59:46They were all
00:59:46gene editing diagrams
00:59:47William had drawn by hand,
00:59:50stroke by stroke.
00:59:51He had worked himself
00:59:52into a severe stomach ulcer
00:59:54over them.
00:59:56But when he met
00:59:57Lydia's reddened eyes,
00:59:58he only took her hand.
01:00:00Wipe your hands.
01:00:02I'll handle it.
01:00:03The next day,
01:00:05Lydia redecorated
01:00:06the house inside and out.
01:00:08Sweet Fofie,
01:00:09your plush toys
01:00:10are too old.
01:00:12Let's throw them away,
01:00:13okay?
01:00:14Sophie immediately
01:00:15threw away
01:00:15the handmade dolls
01:00:16Eleanor had sewn
01:00:17stitch by stitch.
01:00:18Winslow silently
01:00:19threw away
01:00:20the wooden boat
01:00:20in his hands.
01:00:24What a good boy.
01:00:25Those dolls and clothes
01:00:26had all been made
01:00:27by Eleanor herself
01:00:28from organic cotton
01:00:29and cashmere.
01:00:30When the children
01:00:31were little,
01:00:31they had allergies
01:00:32and could only touch
01:00:33natural fabrics.
01:00:36Now they were all
01:00:37thrown into the trash.
01:00:39At the dining table,
01:00:40Lydia sat at the head
01:00:41and laid out utensils
01:00:42for the two children.
01:00:44William poured
01:00:45sparkling water for her
01:00:46and prepared her napkin,
01:00:48his eyes carrying
01:00:49a restrained affection
01:00:50Eleanor had never received.
01:00:53At night,
01:00:54the four of them
01:00:54swung in the backyard
01:00:55and looked at the stars.
01:00:58When Eleanor passed by,
01:00:59they ignored her completely
01:01:01as if she were invisible.
01:01:02What was even more absurd
01:01:04was that all three of them
01:01:05had always been demanding
01:01:06about quality of life.
01:01:08Now Lydia had ruined
01:01:10his manuscripts
01:01:10and William only said
01:01:12it was fine.
01:01:13The children wore
01:01:14casually washed clothes
01:01:15and ate take-out pizza
01:01:16and not one of them complained.
01:01:19William,
01:01:20who was obsessed
01:01:21with cleanliness,
01:01:22even personally cooked
01:01:23pancakes with Lydia.
01:01:26Mr. Harrington
01:01:27treats Miss Kentington
01:01:28so well.
01:01:30Poor Mrs. Harrington
01:01:31worked herself to the bone
01:01:32for so long
01:01:33and she still can't compare
01:01:34to a few days
01:01:34with Miss Kentington.
01:01:38Eleanor listened,
01:01:39her heart perfectly calm.
01:01:42That day,
01:01:43William pushed open
01:01:44the courtyard gate,
01:01:45his tone somewhat gentler.
01:01:47Enough.
01:01:48This has gone on long enough.
01:01:50I'm busy with work.
01:01:52From now on,
01:01:53you'll take care
01:01:53of the children again.
01:01:55Lydia is young
01:01:56and can't manage it.
01:01:57A belated birthday gift.
01:01:59Starting tomorrow,
01:02:00everything goes back to normal.
01:02:01This ends here.
01:02:02Eleanor looked at the bracelet.
01:02:04If this had been
01:02:05her last life,
01:02:06she would have been so happy.
01:02:07She couldn't sleep all night.
01:02:09Now it only feels ironic.
01:02:12I don't want it.
01:02:14Why?
01:02:16I'm not interested anymore.
01:02:18William frowned
01:02:19and forced it into her hand.
01:02:21Eleanor turned her head away
01:02:23and remained silent.
01:02:25William stared hard
01:02:25at her calm profile,
01:02:27a tight ache in his chest.
01:02:28In the end,
01:02:29he abruptly turned and left.
01:02:31She told the housekeeper
01:02:33to take the thing away
01:02:34and continued reading.
01:02:39Madam!
01:02:40Hurry to the back hill!
01:02:42Winslow and Sophie
01:02:42fell into the river!
01:02:53In his memory,
01:02:55Winslow and Sophie
01:02:56were the people
01:02:56she cared about most.
01:02:58But now the children
01:02:59had concussions.
01:03:01And she seemed
01:03:02completely unmoved.
01:03:04Mrs. Harrington
01:03:05has been like
01:03:05a different person lately.
01:03:07Last week was her birthday.
01:03:08She baked a lemon cake herself,
01:03:10but Mr. Harrington
01:03:10took the children
01:03:11skiing with Miss Kensington instead.
01:03:12Who could feel fine after that?
01:03:15Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
01:03:18I was only doing
01:03:19it out of friendship.
01:03:24You're not telling the truth.
01:03:26We're husband and wife.
01:03:28If you have something to say,
01:03:29say it.
01:03:31Husband and wife!
01:03:33One month after her rebirth,
01:03:34every servant
01:03:35at the Westchester estate
01:03:37noticed that Mrs. Harrington
01:03:38had changed.
01:03:39She no longer got up
01:03:40at 5.30
01:03:41in the morning
01:03:42to make breakfast.
01:03:43She no longer
01:03:44pushed the children
01:03:45to study.
01:03:46She no longer
01:03:46drove to the university
01:03:47to deliver
01:03:48nutritious meals
01:03:49to William.
01:03:50Even when Winslow
01:03:51and Sophie fell off
01:03:52their horses
01:03:52and got concussions,
01:03:54she only calmly
01:03:54told the housekeeper
01:03:55to take them
01:03:56to the hospital.
01:03:57A night of wind
01:03:58and snow passed.
01:03:59William pushed
01:03:59the door open
01:04:00and stepped inside.
01:04:01He took off his coat
01:04:02and finally looked
01:04:04toward Eleanor,
01:04:04who was reading
01:04:05by the fireplace.
01:04:07What has been
01:04:07going on with you lately?
01:04:09Eleanor's hand paused
01:04:10on the page
01:04:10under the dim
01:04:11yellow light.
01:04:12The man in the white shirt
01:04:13looked cool
01:04:14and aristocratic,
01:04:15but his voice
01:04:16was as cold
01:04:16as a timer
01:04:17in a lab.
01:04:19Nothing.
01:04:20I've just been
01:04:21a little busy.
01:04:22Her calm distance
01:04:23made William's brows
01:04:24tighten.
01:04:24In his memory,
01:04:26Winslow and Sophie
01:04:27were the people
01:04:27she cared about most.
01:04:29But now the children
01:04:30had concussions
01:04:32and she seemed
01:04:33completely unmoved.
01:04:35Mrs. Harrington
01:04:36has been like
01:04:36a different person lately.
01:04:38Last week was her birthday.
01:04:39She baked a lemon cake herself,
01:04:41but Mr. Harrington
01:04:41took the children
01:04:42skiing with Miss Kensington
01:04:43instead.
01:04:44Who could feel fine
01:04:44after that?
01:04:47Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
01:04:49I was only doing it
01:04:50out of friendship.
01:04:55You're not telling the truth.
01:04:57We're husband and wife.
01:04:59If you have something to say,
01:05:00say it.
01:05:02Husband and wife.
01:05:04Eleanor thought of
01:05:05the marriage certificate
01:05:06in the safe,
01:05:07the one with William
01:05:08and Lydia's names on it,
01:05:09and almost laughed.
01:05:11Before she could speak,
01:05:13the study door
01:05:13was shoved open.
01:05:14You're so mean!
01:05:16I was in the hospital
01:05:18and you didn't even
01:05:19come see me!
01:05:20I hate you!
01:05:21Winslow stood to the side,
01:05:23his eyes red,
01:05:24his lips pressed tight.
01:05:26William was about
01:05:26to stop her,
01:05:27but Eleanor spoke first.
01:05:29Then go find
01:05:30Miss Kensington.
01:05:31Let her take care of you.
01:05:35Do you mean that?
01:05:37I do.
01:05:38Sophie burst into tears,
01:05:40sobbing as she screamed
01:05:41that Eleanor
01:05:42was the worst mother
01:05:42in the world.
01:05:43She cried until
01:05:44she could barely breathe,
01:05:45but Eleanor did not react
01:05:46at all.
01:05:47Fine.
01:05:48Suit yourself.
01:05:52Winslow called Dad twice,
01:05:53but no one answered.
01:05:55Anxious,
01:05:56he looked back at Eleanor
01:05:57and glared at her.
01:06:00Why do you always
01:06:01have to fight with Dad?
01:06:04You should go too.
01:06:06You didn't used to be like this.
01:06:09Eleanor did not answer.
01:06:11She simply shut him
01:06:12outside the door.
01:06:14She leaned back
01:06:15on the chaise
01:06:16and looked at the family
01:06:17portrait on the wall,
01:06:18remembering her last life.
01:06:21The Sinclair family
01:06:22went bankrupt.
01:06:24She was forced
01:06:24to drop out of school,
01:06:26and her stepfather
01:06:27wanted to marry her off
01:06:28to a 63-year-old
01:06:29hedge fund manager.
01:06:30It was William Harrington
01:06:31who saved her,
01:06:33saying he had chosen her
01:06:34as his wife.
01:06:35He was not only the heir
01:06:36to the Harrington family,
01:06:37but also Columbia University's
01:06:39chief scientist,
01:06:40a genius in gene editing.
01:06:42Everyone envied her,
01:06:43but on the first day
01:06:44of their marriage,
01:06:45William said,
01:06:46I married you only
01:06:47to satisfy the family trust.
01:06:49Do your duty
01:06:50as Mrs. Harrington.
01:06:52She nodded
01:06:53with a pale face,
01:06:54but her heart
01:06:55still fell for him.
01:06:57After the wedding,
01:06:58she cooked for him herself,
01:07:00ironed his shirts,
01:07:01nursed his stomach problems,
01:07:02and helped him
01:07:03organize his lab data.
01:07:05During a difficult labor,
01:07:06she gritted her teeth
01:07:07and signed
01:07:08for surgical consent form alone.
01:07:10Later,
01:07:11when she was diagnosed
01:07:12with pancreatic cancer,
01:07:13she kept it to herself
01:07:15and secretly went
01:07:16for treatment.
01:07:17At the end of her life,
01:07:18she lay in a hospice ward,
01:07:20her hair completely white.
01:07:22On the television,
01:07:23William had just won
01:07:24the Nobel Prize in medicine.
01:07:26While Winslow and Sophie
01:07:27had received their
01:07:27Ivy League acceptance letters,
01:07:29the host asked
01:07:30whom he wanted
01:07:30to thank most.
01:07:33The person I am
01:07:34most grateful to
01:07:35is my wife, Lydia.
01:07:36She was my first love,
01:07:38and she is the love
01:07:39of my life.
01:07:40Did I just hear
01:07:41that wrong?
01:07:45This is what you owe Dad.
01:07:47Miss Kensington
01:07:47is the one who registered
01:07:49her marriage with him
01:07:49at City Hall.
01:07:51You came later.
01:07:52We have to catch a flight
01:07:53to Dad and Miss Kennington's
01:07:54wedding in Napa Valley.
01:07:58On the day she died,
01:08:00that grand wedding
01:08:01was playing on television.
01:08:02She closed her eyes
01:08:03in agony.
01:08:06After being reborn,
01:08:07she did only two things.
01:08:09Register for the
01:08:10graduate entrance exam
01:08:11and apply to graduate school.
01:08:13Then go to the
01:08:13social security office
01:08:14to replace her
01:08:15social security card
01:08:17and apply for a new passport.
01:08:19She had already taken
01:08:19the exam in secret.
01:08:21In one week,
01:08:22the admissions result
01:08:23would be out.
01:08:26I'll leave this family
01:08:27for good.
01:08:28As she was thinking,
01:08:30a commotion rose
01:08:31outside the door.
01:08:34Madam,
01:08:35Mr. Harrington asks
01:08:36that you clear out
01:08:37the master bedroom
01:08:38for Miss Kennington.
01:08:39You are to move
01:08:39to the guest room.
01:08:41All right.
01:08:42Mr. Harrington said
01:08:44you should move
01:08:45your things yourself.
01:08:47Eleanor nodded,
01:08:48quickly packed a few
01:08:49clothes and her books,
01:08:50then picked up the box
01:08:51and prepared to leave.
01:08:53Before she reached the door,
01:08:54a hand struck hers hard
01:08:55and everything fell
01:08:57to the floor.
01:08:58She looked up
01:08:59and saw Lydia Kensington.
01:09:02Eleanor,
01:09:03long time no see.
01:09:04Eleanor crouched down
01:09:05to pick up her books.
01:09:07Eleanor,
01:09:08you're still so capable.
01:09:09Unlike me,
01:09:10all I know how to do
01:09:11is spend William's money.
01:09:13Even when you were having
01:09:14a difficult delivery,
01:09:15he was thinking of me.
01:09:16He transferred most
01:09:18of the family assets
01:09:19into a trust for me
01:09:20to manage,
01:09:20and even let me join
01:09:21the research institute.
01:09:23Eleanor flinched
01:09:24from the pain
01:09:24and shook her off.
01:09:26Lydia staggered backward
01:09:27and fell right into
01:09:28William's arms
01:09:29as he rushed over.
01:09:31Winslow and Sophie
01:09:32followed behind him,
01:09:33surrounding her
01:09:34with worried faces.
01:09:36Lydia,
01:09:37are you all right?
01:09:38I'm fine.
01:09:41William,
01:09:42maybe I should just leave.
01:09:44Eleanor doesn't seem
01:09:45to welcome me.
01:09:46William looked
01:09:47at Eleanor in silence.
01:09:49Eleanor withdrew her gaze
01:09:50from her son and daughter
01:09:51and hid her bruised hand
01:09:53behind her back.
01:09:54I'm not unwilling.
01:09:56I'll leave right away.
01:10:00You're really moving out?
01:10:02You're leaving all this
01:10:03behind too?
01:10:04It was the only gift
01:10:05he had ever given her.
01:10:07Back then,
01:10:07she had been so happy
01:10:08she couldn't sleep all night.
01:10:10You're the one who told me
01:10:11to clear out the room.
01:10:12I'm not the one
01:10:13abandoning it.
01:10:14Then why aren't you
01:10:16taking it with you?
01:10:16There are too many things.
01:10:18I can't carry them.
01:10:20Sophie ran over.
01:10:21When she saw her
01:10:22plush toy in the box,
01:10:23her little face
01:10:24flushed red.
01:10:25She's throwing
01:10:26my things away!
01:10:27If you keep acting
01:10:28like this,
01:10:29I'll never go
01:10:30to science camp again!
01:10:32You're a bad mom!
01:10:34You're not even as good
01:10:35as Lydia's little finger!
01:10:37I'm gonna live
01:10:38with Lydia
01:10:38from now on!
01:10:39If this had been before,
01:10:41those words would have
01:10:42torn her heart apart.
01:10:43But now,
01:10:44she was already exhausted.
01:10:47Do whatever you want.
01:10:51The moment she stepped
01:10:52into the guest room,
01:10:53the housekeeper
01:10:54locked the door.
01:10:56Madam,
01:10:57Mr. Harrington said
01:10:57that since you pushed
01:10:58Miss Kendington,
01:10:59you need to calm down
01:11:00in here tonight.
01:11:02Eleanor did not respond.
01:11:03She lay on the bed
01:11:04and listened to the rain.
01:11:06In her dream,
01:11:07William promised her love
01:11:08and respect.
01:11:09But in the end,
01:11:10there was only her
01:11:11lying alone
01:11:11in a hospital bed
01:11:12while,
01:11:13on television.
01:11:14Her husband walked
01:11:15toward the wedding hall,
01:11:16hand in hand
01:11:16with Lydia.
01:11:17She laughed
01:11:18until tears fell,
01:11:19then murmured aloud,
01:11:23If there is another life,
01:11:24I will never love you again.
01:11:29Not love me?
01:11:31Eleanor,
01:11:31say that again.
01:11:32Don't open your eyes.
01:11:34Eleanor forced herself
01:11:35not to open her eyes.
01:11:37He saw that her eyes
01:11:38were closed,
01:11:38so she had only been
01:11:39talking in her sleep.
01:11:41He let out a breath.
01:11:43William,
01:11:44what are you doing?
01:11:46Are you worried
01:11:47about Eleanor?
01:11:48This is all my fault.
01:11:52This isn't your fault.
01:11:57William,
01:11:58if Eleanor finds out
01:12:00that you and I
01:12:00registered our marriage,
01:12:02will she be angry?
01:12:03It was an emergency then.
01:12:05Your father wanted
01:12:06to see you married
01:12:07before he died,
01:12:08even if Eleanor knew
01:12:10she wouldn't blame you.
01:12:11Don't worry.
01:12:12She won't blame him.
01:12:13Not for the rest of her life.
01:12:15On Lydia's first day
01:12:16after moving in,
01:12:17she soaked
01:12:18William's laboratory manuscripts.
01:12:20They were all
01:12:20gene editing diagrams
01:12:21William had drawn by hand.
01:12:23Stroke by stroke.
01:12:25He had worked himself
01:12:26into a severe stomach ulcer
01:12:28over them.
01:12:29But when he met
01:12:30Lydia's reddened eyes,
01:12:32he only took her hand.
01:12:34Wipe your hands.
01:12:36I'll handle it.
01:12:37The next day,
01:12:39Lydia redecorated
01:12:40the house inside and out.
01:12:42Sweet, Fofie.
01:12:43Your plush toys are too old.
01:12:45Let's throw them away, okay?
01:12:47Sophie immediately threw away
01:12:49the handmade dolls.
01:12:50Eleanor had sewn
01:12:51stitch by stitch.
01:12:52Winslow silently threw away
01:12:53the wooden boat
01:12:54in his hands.
01:12:57What a good boy.
01:12:59Those dolls and clothes
01:13:00had all been made
01:13:01by Eleanor herself
01:13:02from organic cotton
01:13:03and cashmere.
01:13:04When the children were little,
01:13:05they had allergies
01:13:06and could only touch
01:13:07natural fabrics.
01:13:09Now they were all
01:13:10thrown into the trash.
01:13:12At the dining table,
01:13:14Lydia sat at the head
01:13:15and laid out utensils
01:13:16for the two children.
01:13:18William poured
01:13:19sparkling water for her
01:13:20and prepared her napkin,
01:13:22his eyes carrying
01:13:23a restrained affection
01:13:24Eleanor had never received.
01:13:27At night,
01:13:28the four of them
01:13:28swung in the backyard
01:13:29and looked at the stars.
01:13:31When Eleanor passed by,
01:13:33they ignored her completely,
01:13:35as if she were invisible.
01:13:37What was even more absurd
01:13:38was that all three of them
01:13:39had always been demanding
01:13:40about quality of life.
01:13:42Now Lydia had ruined
01:13:43his manuscripts,
01:13:45and William only said
01:13:46it was fine.
01:13:47The children wore
01:13:48casually washed clothes
01:13:49and ate take-out pizza,
01:13:51and not one of them complained.
01:13:53William,
01:13:54who was obsessed
01:13:54with cleanliness,
01:13:56even personally cooked
01:13:57pancakes with Lydia.
01:13:59Mr. Harrington
01:14:00treats Miss Kentington
01:14:02so well.
01:14:04Poor Mrs. Harrington
01:14:05worked herself
01:14:05to the bone for so long,
01:14:07and she still can't compare
01:14:08to a few days
01:14:08with Miss Kentington.
01:14:12Eleanor listened,
01:14:13her heart perfectly calm.
01:14:16That day,
01:14:17William pushed open
01:14:17the courtyard gate,
01:14:18his tone somewhat gentler.
01:14:21Enough.
01:14:22This has gone on long enough.
01:14:24I'm busy with work.
01:14:26From now on,
01:14:27you'll take care
01:14:27of the children again.
01:14:29Lydia is young
01:14:30and can't manage it.
01:14:31A belated birthday gift.
01:14:32Starting tomorrow,
01:14:33everything goes back to normal.
01:14:35This ends here.
01:14:36Eleanor looked at the bracelet.
01:14:38If this had been
01:14:39her last life,
01:14:40she would have been
01:14:40so happy.
01:14:41She couldn't sleep all night.
01:14:43Now it only feels ironic.
01:14:46I don't want it.
01:14:48Why?
01:14:49I'm not interested anymore.
01:14:52William frowned
01:14:53and forced it into her hand.
01:14:55Eleanor turned her head away
01:14:56and remained silent.
01:14:58William stared hard
01:14:59at her calm profile,
01:15:01a tight ache in his chest.
01:15:02In the end,
01:15:03he abruptly turned and left.
01:15:05She told the housekeeper
01:15:06to take the thing away
01:15:07and continued reading.
01:15:13Madam!
01:15:14Hurry to the back hill!
01:15:15Winslow and Sophie
01:15:16fell into the river!
01:15:27In his memory,
01:15:29Winslow and Sophie
01:15:30were the people
01:15:30she cared about most.
01:15:31But now the children
01:15:32had concussions.
01:15:35And she seemed
01:15:35completely unmoved.
01:15:37Mrs. Harrington
01:15:38has been like
01:15:39a different person lately.
01:15:40Last week was her birthday.
01:15:42She baked a lemon cake herself,
01:15:43but Mr. Harrington
01:15:44took the children
01:15:45skiing with Miss Kensington
01:15:46instead.
01:15:46Who could feel fine
01:15:47after that?
01:15:49Lydia is my mentor's daughter.
01:15:51I was only doing it
01:15:53out of friendship.
01:15:58You're not telling the truth.
01:16:00We're husband and wife.
01:16:02If you have something to say,
01:16:03say it.
01:16:04Husband
01:16:05and wife!
01:16:06One month after her rebirth,
01:16:08every servant
01:16:09at the Westchester estate
01:16:10noticed that Mrs. Harrington
01:16:12had changed.
01:16:13She no longer
01:16:14got up at 5.30
01:16:15in the morning
01:16:16to make breakfast.
01:16:17She no longer
01:16:18pushed the children
01:16:18to study.
01:16:19She no longer
01:16:20drove to the university
01:16:21to deliver
01:16:22nutritious meals
01:16:23to William.
01:16:24Even when Winslow
01:16:24and Sophie
01:16:25fell off their horses
01:16:26and got concussions,
01:16:27she only calmly
01:16:28told the housekeeper
01:16:29to take them
01:16:30to the hospital.
01:16:31A night of wind
01:16:31and snow passed.
01:16:33William pushed
01:16:33the door open
01:16:34and stepped inside.
01:16:35He took off his coat
01:16:36and finally looked
01:16:37toward Eleanor,
01:16:38who was reading
01:16:39by the fireplace.
01:16:40What has been going
01:16:41on with you lately?
01:16:42Eleanor's hand
01:16:43paused on the page
01:16:44under the dim
01:16:45yellow light.
01:16:46The man in the white shirt
01:16:47looked cool
01:16:48and aristocratic,
01:16:49but his voice
01:16:49was as cold
01:16:50as a timer
01:16:51in a lab.
01:16:53Nothing.
01:16:54I've just been
01:16:55a little busy.
01:16:56Her calm distance
01:16:57made William's brows
01:16:58tighten.
01:16:58In his memory,
01:17:00Winslow and Sophie
01:17:01were the people
01:17:01she cared about most.
01:17:02But now the children
01:17:04had concussions
01:17:06and she seemed
01:17:07completely unmoved.
01:17:09Mrs. Harrington
01:17:10has been like
01:17:10a different person lately.
01:17:12Last week was her birthday.
01:17:13She baked a lemon cake
01:17:14herself,
01:17:14but Mr. Harrington
01:17:15took the children
01:17:16skiing with Miss Kensington
01:17:17instead.
01:17:18Who could feel fine
01:17:18after that?
01:17:20Lydia is my mentor's
01:17:22daughter.
01:17:23I was only doing it
01:17:24out of friendship.
01:17:29You're not telling
01:17:30the truth.
01:17:31We're husband
01:17:31and wife.
01:17:33If you have something
01:17:34to say,
01:17:34say it.
01:17:36Husband
01:17:36and wife.
01:17:38Eleanor thought
01:17:39of the marriage
01:17:39certificate
01:17:40and the safe,
01:17:41the one with
01:17:41William and Lydia's
01:17:42names on it,
01:17:43and almost laughed.
01:17:45Before she could speak,
01:17:46the study door
01:17:47was shoved open.
01:17:48You're so mean!
01:17:50I was in the hospital
01:17:52and you didn't even
01:17:52come see me!
01:17:54I hate you!
01:17:55Winslow stood
01:17:55to the side,
01:17:56his eyes red,
01:17:58his lips pressed tight.
01:17:59William was about
01:18:00to stop her,
01:18:01but Eleanor spoke first.
01:18:03Then go find
01:18:04Miss Kensington.
01:18:05Let her take care of you.
01:18:08Do you mean that?
01:18:11I do.
01:18:12Sophie burst into tears,
01:18:14sobbing as she screamed
01:18:15that Eleanor was the worst
01:18:16mother in the world.
01:18:17She cried until she could
01:18:18barely breathe,
01:18:19but Eleanor did not react
01:18:20at all.
01:18:21Fine.
01:18:21Suit yourself.
01:18:26Winslow called Dad twice,
01:18:28but no one answered.
01:18:29Anxious,
01:18:30he looked back at Eleanor
01:18:31and glared at her.
01:18:34Why do you always
01:18:35have to fight with Dad?
01:18:38You should go too.
01:18:40You didn't used
01:18:41to be like this.
01:18:43Eleanor did not answer.
01:18:45She simply shut him
01:18:46outside the door.
01:18:48She leaned back
01:18:49on the chaise
01:18:50and looked at the family
01:18:51portrait on the wall.
01:18:52Remembering her last life.
01:18:55The Sinclair family
01:18:56went bankrupt.
01:18:57She was forced
01:18:58to drop out of school,
01:18:59and her stepfather
01:19:00wanted to marry her off
01:19:02to a 63-year-old
01:19:03hedge fund manager.
01:19:04It was William Harrington
01:19:05who saved her,
01:19:06saying he had chosen her
01:19:07as his wife.
01:19:08He was not only the heir
01:19:10to the Harrington family,
01:19:11but also Columbia University's
01:19:13chief scientist.
01:19:14A genius in gene editing,
01:19:16everyone envied her,
01:19:17but on the first day
01:19:18of their marriage,
01:19:19William said,
01:19:20I married you only
01:19:21to satisfy the family trust.
01:19:23Do your duty
01:19:24as Mrs. Harrington.
01:19:26She nodded
01:19:27with a pale face,
01:19:28but her heart
01:19:29still fell for him.
01:19:30After the wedding,
01:19:32she cooked for him herself,
01:19:34ironed his shirts,
01:19:35nursed his stomach problems,
01:19:36and helped him
01:19:37organize his lab data.
01:19:39During a difficult labor,
01:19:40she gritted her teeth
01:19:41and signed for surgical
01:19:42consent form alone.
01:19:44Later,
01:19:44when she was diagnosed
01:19:45with pancreatic cancer,
01:19:47she kept it to herself
01:19:49and secretly went
01:19:50for treatment.
01:19:50At the end of her life,
01:19:52she lay in a hospice ward,
01:19:53her hair completely white.
01:19:55On the television,
01:19:57William had just won
01:19:58the Nobel Prize in medicine.
01:19:59While Winslow and Sophie
01:20:01had received their
01:20:01Ivy League acceptance letters,
01:20:03the host asked
01:20:03whom he wanted
01:20:04to thank most.
01:20:07The person I am
01:20:08most grateful to
01:20:08is my wife, Lydia.
01:20:10She was my first love,
01:20:11and she is the love
01:20:12of my life.
01:20:14Did I just hear
01:20:15that wrong?
01:20:18This is what you owe Dad.
01:20:21Miss Kensington
01:20:21is the one who registered
01:20:22her marriage with him
01:20:23at City Hall.
01:20:24You came later.
01:20:26We have to catch a flight
01:20:27to Dad and Miss Kennington's
01:20:28wedding in Napa Valley.
01:20:32On the day she died,
01:20:34that grand wedding
01:20:35was playing on television.
01:20:36She closed her eyes
01:20:37in agony.
01:20:40After being reborn,
01:20:41she did only two things.
01:20:43Register for the
01:20:43graduate entrance exam
01:20:45and apply to graduate school.
01:20:46Then go to the
01:20:47social security office
01:20:48to replace her
01:20:49social security card
01:20:50and apply for a new passport.
01:20:52She had already taken
01:20:53the exam in secret.
01:20:54In one week,
01:20:56the admissions result
01:20:57would be out.
01:20:59Ooh.
01:21:00I'll leave this family
01:21:01for good.
01:21:02As she was thinking,
01:21:03a commotion rose
01:21:04outside the door.
01:21:08Madam,
01:21:09Mr. Harrington asks
01:21:10that you clear out
01:21:11the master bedroom
01:21:11for Miss Kennington.
01:21:12You are to move
01:21:13to the guest room.
01:21:15All right.
01:21:16Mr. Harrington said
01:21:18you should move
01:21:18your things yourself.
01:21:21Eleanor nodded,
01:21:22quickly packed a few clothes
01:21:23and her books,
01:21:24then picked up the box
01:21:25and prepared to leave.
01:21:27Before she reached the door,
01:21:28a hand struck hers hard
01:21:29and everything fell to the floor.
01:21:31She looked up
01:21:32and saw Lydia Kensington.
01:21:35Eleanor,
01:21:37long time no see.
01:21:38Eleanor crouched down
01:21:39to pick up her books.
01:21:40Eleanor,
01:21:41you're still so capable.
01:21:43Unlike me,
01:21:44all I know how to do
01:21:45is spend William's money.
01:21:47Even when you were having
01:21:48a difficult delivery,
01:21:49he was thinking of me.
01:21:50He transferred most
01:21:51of the family assets
01:21:52into a trust for me
01:21:53to manage
01:21:54and even let me join
01:21:55the research institute.
01:21:56Eleanor flinched
01:21:58from the pain
01:21:58and shook her off.
01:22:00Lydia staggered backward
01:22:01and fell right
01:22:02into William's arms
01:22:03as he rushed over.
01:22:04Winslow and Sophie
01:22:05followed behind him,
01:22:07surrounding her
01:22:07with weird faces.
01:22:09Lydia,
01:22:10are you all right?
01:22:12I'm fine.
01:22:15William,
01:22:16maybe I should just leave.
01:22:18Eleanor doesn't seem
01:22:19to welcome me.
01:22:20William looked
01:22:21at Eleanor in silence.
01:22:23Eleanor withdrew her gaze
01:22:24from her son and daughter
01:22:25and hid her bruised hand
01:22:27behind her back.
01:22:28I'm not unwilling.
01:22:30I'll leave right away.
01:22:34You're really moving out?
01:22:36You're leaving
01:22:37all this behind too?
01:22:38It was the only gift
01:22:39he had ever given her.
01:22:40Back then,
01:22:41she had been so happy
01:22:42she couldn't sleep all night.
01:22:44You're the one
01:22:45who told me
01:22:45to clear out the room.
01:22:46I'm not the one
01:22:47abandoning it.
01:22:48Then why aren't you
01:22:49taking it with you?
01:22:50There are too many things.
01:22:52I can't carry them.
01:22:54Sophie ran over.
01:22:55When she saw
01:22:56her plush toy in the box,
01:22:57her little face flushed red.
01:22:59She's throwing
01:23:00my things away!
01:23:01If you keep acting like this,
01:23:03I'll never go
01:23:04to science camp again.
01:23:06You're a bad mom!
01:23:08You're not even as good
01:23:09as Lydia's little finger!
01:23:11I'm gonna live
01:23:11with Lydia from now on!
01:23:13If this had been before,
01:23:15those words would have
01:23:16torn her heart apart.
01:23:17But now,
01:23:18she was already exhausted.
01:23:21Do whatever you want.
01:23:25The moment she stepped
01:23:26into the guest room,
01:23:27the housekeeper
01:23:28locked the door.
01:23:29Madam,
01:23:30Mr. Harrington said
01:23:31that since you pushed
01:23:32Miss Kendington,
01:23:33you need to calm down
01:23:34in here tonight.
01:23:36Eleanor did not respond.
01:23:37She lay on the bed
01:23:38and listened to the rain.
01:23:39In her dream,
01:23:40William promised her love
01:23:42and respect.
01:23:43But in the end,
01:23:44there was only her
01:23:45lying alone
01:23:45in a hospital bed
01:23:46while on television.
01:23:47Her husband walked
01:23:48toward the wedding hall,
01:23:50hand in hand
01:23:50with Lydia.
01:23:51She laughed
01:23:51until tears fell,
01:23:53then murmured aloud.
01:23:56If there is another life,
01:23:58I will never love you again.
01:24:03Not love me?
01:24:05Eleanor,
01:24:05say that again.
01:24:06Don't open your eyes.
01:24:08Eleanor forced herself
01:24:09not to open her eyes.
01:24:10He saw that her eyes
01:24:11were closed,
01:24:12so she had only been
01:24:13talking in her sleep.
01:24:14He let out a breath.
01:24:17William,
01:24:18what are you doing?
01:24:20Are you worried
01:24:21about Eleanor?
01:24:22This is all my fault.
01:24:25This isn't your fault.
01:24:31William,
01:24:32if Eleanor finds out
01:24:33that you and I
01:24:34registered our marriage,
01:24:36will she be angry?
01:24:37It was an emergency then.
01:24:39Your father wanted
01:24:40to see you married
01:24:41before he died.
01:24:42Even if Eleanor knew
01:24:43she wouldn't blame you.
01:24:45Don't worry.
01:24:46She won't blame him.
01:24:47Not for the rest of her life.
01:24:49On Lydia's first day
01:24:50after moving in,
01:24:51she soaked
01:24:52William's laboratory manuscripts.
01:24:53They were all
01:24:54gene editing diagrams.
01:24:56William had drawn by hand,
01:24:57stroke by stroke.
01:24:59He had worked himself
01:25:00into a severe stomach ulcer
01:25:02over them.
01:25:03But when he met
01:25:04Lydia's reddened eyes,
01:25:05he only took her hand.
01:25:08Wipe your hands.
01:25:10I'll handle it.
01:25:11The next day,
01:25:12Lydia redecorated
01:25:13the house inside and out.
01:25:16Sweet Fofie,
01:25:17your plush toys
01:25:18are too old.
01:25:19Let's throw them away,
01:25:21okay?
01:25:21Sophie immediately
01:25:22threw away
01:25:23the handmade dolls.
01:25:24Eleanor had sewn
01:25:24stitch by stitch.
01:25:26Winslow silently
01:25:27threw away
01:25:27the wooden boat
01:25:28in his hands.
01:25:31What a good boy.
01:25:33Those dolls and clothes
01:25:34had all been made
01:25:35by Eleanor herself
01:25:35from organic cotton
01:25:37and cashmere.
01:25:38When the children
01:25:38were little,
01:25:39they had allergies
01:25:40and could only
01:25:40touch natural fabrics.
01:25:43Now they were all
01:25:44thrown into the trash.
01:25:46At the dining table,
01:25:48Lydia sat at the head
01:25:49and laid out utensils
01:25:50for the two children.
01:25:52William poured
01:25:53sparkling water for her
01:25:54and prepared her napkin,
01:25:56his eyes carrying
01:25:57a restrained affection
01:25:58Eleanor had never received.
01:26:00At night,
01:26:01the four of them
01:26:02swung in the backyard
01:26:03and looked at the stars.
01:26:05When Eleanor passed by,
01:26:07they ignored her completely
01:26:08as if she were invisible.
01:26:10What was even more absurd
01:26:12was that all three of them
01:26:13had always been demanding
01:26:14about quality of life.
01:26:16Now Lydia had ruined
01:26:17his manuscripts
01:26:18and William only said
01:26:20it was fine.
01:26:21The children wore
01:26:22casually washed clothes
01:26:23and ate take-out pizza.
01:26:25And not one of them complained.
01:26:27William,
01:26:28who was obsessed
01:26:28with cleanliness,
01:26:29even personally cooked
01:26:31pancakes with Lydia.
01:26:33Mr. Harrington
01:26:34treats Miss Kentington
01:26:35so well.
01:26:38Poor Mrs. Harrington
01:26:39worked herself to the bone
01:26:40for so long
01:26:40and she still can't compare
01:26:41to a few days
01:26:42with Miss Kentington.
01:26:46Eleanor listened,
01:26:47her heart perfectly calm.
01:26:50That day,
01:26:50William pushed open
01:26:51the courtyard gate,
01:26:52his tone somewhat gentler.
01:26:54Enough.
01:26:55This has gone on long enough.
01:26:57I'm busy with work.
01:27:00From now on,
01:27:00you'll take care
01:27:01of the children again.
01:27:03Lydia is young
01:27:03and can't manage it.
01:27:05A belated birthday gift.
01:27:06Starting tomorrow,
01:27:07everything goes back to normal.
01:27:08This ends here.
01:27:10Eleanor looked at the bracelet.
01:27:12If this had been
01:27:13her last life,
01:27:13she would have been so happy.
01:27:15She couldn't sleep all night.
01:27:17Now it only feels ironic.
01:27:20I don't want it.
01:27:22Why?
01:27:23I'm not interested anymore.
01:27:25William frowned
01:27:26and forced it into her hand.
01:27:29Eleanor turned her head away
01:27:30and remained silent.
01:27:32William stared hard
01:27:33at her calm profile,
01:27:34a tight ache in his chest.
01:27:36In the end,
01:27:37he abruptly turned and left.
01:27:39She told the housekeeper
01:27:40to take the thing away
01:27:41and continued reading.
01:27:46Madam!
01:27:48Hurry to the back hill!
01:27:49Winslow and Sophie
01:27:50fell into the river!
