Episode 7 

Although three years passed, Seth and Chloe continued to bully and humiliate Vanessa after she came back. 

Three days later, Vanessa showed up to the corporate gala alone, wearing light makeup and her custom lounge wear. The second Seth saw her, his eyes lit up. He walked up to her and said “You said you didn't want to come, but here you are. Listen, if you want me back, you need to at least dress the part to match my new status.” Seth thought Vanessa was coming to recover their relationship. 

Vanessa brushed off his arrogance and tried to pass him. Seth stopped her angrily after just two steps, saying “Vanessa, I'm talking to you. Our seats are right here. Where do you think you're going?” 

Vanessa pushed aside Seth's arm, which was blocking her way, and said, "Those are your seats. My seat is over there." Chloe standing by Seth’s side questioned, “Vanessa, how did you sneak in here? Are you here to ruin everything? How dare you wear that bracelet?” 

Hearing Chloe’s words, everyone observed the bracelet. There were lots of sayings across the gala.  “Wait, is that the eternal heart diamond bracelet? Mr. Vance bought that for his wife. Tonight is Mrs. Vance's first public appearance. Is this girl trying to mock the billionaire's wife? She sneak in? Is she trying to humiliate us in front of Mr. Vance?” 

Then, a man approached to Seth and asked him if Vanessa was his friend. Seth negated it immediately and asked Vanessa to take that fake bracelet off and get out. What’s worse, Chloe wanted to grab the bracelet. During their argument, Vanessa fell down accidentally. Chloe stepped on her bracelet and made her hand bleed. 

Episode 19

When Chloe held a knife and desired to attack, Vanessa didn't even think. She let go of Grayson's hand and threw her body entirely over her son. A blinding, agonizing pain ripped through my back. The color completely drained from her face. She didn't even get to finish the sentence. Everything went black. She collapsed to the floor. The last thing she saw was her son's terrified face. 

She woke up to the sharp smell of hospital bleach. She glanced down at her hospital gown and felt a little dazed. Her best friend, Maya, threw her arms around her. When Maya saw that she was awake, she said “Vanessa! You're finally awake! If you stayed out any longer, your husband and your son were going to turn this city upside down.”

Vanessa panicked and instantly touched her pregnant belly. Maya knew exactly what she was thinking and comforted her, “You're fine. The baby is perfectly fine. The doctor said you fainted from the shock and the pain. That psycho bitch actually tried to stab a toddler.”

Vanessa throat completely dried and coughed many times. Maya grabbed a cup of water and rubbed her back. Her friend said, “Drink. Honestly, Vanessa, you were way too impulsive. Grayson had ten bodyguards in that room. They would have stopped her. Leo didn't need you to take a fork for him. He's a fierce little guy.” 

Vanessa finally caught her breath and explained, “He's my baby. Of course I protected him.” She looked around the empty hospital room and asked where they were.

At the end of the story, Vanessa found that her husband fell in love with her long long ago and he kept observing her. It can be said that the marriage between her and him was completely “a plot”. 

Vanessa secretly hired a private investigator to look into her husband’s past. Grayson had been abandoned by his birth parents. Raised by a cold, distant adoptive father who never showed him affection. He was a total loner in high school. People avoided him because he never spoke.

Then a memory suddenly clicked. During her senior year of high school, she saw a quiet boy sitting along on the bleachers eating plain bread for lunch. She thought he was starving. She had marched up to him, unzipped his backpack and shoved a wad of cash inside. She said to him, “listen up, you are with Vanessa now. Consider this your lunch allowance.”

Vanessa didn’t even know his name. But she never realized that lonely boy eating plain bread was Grayson. Because of his past, Grayson always felt unworthy. He always felt a wall between them. Even though they already had two kids, she made a silent promise: she was going to spend the rest of her life, showing the insecure, sensitive man exactly how much she loved him.       

Part four: Conclusion

From Seth’s fiancee to Grayson’s wife, we can see Vanessa’s experience to look for herself. Although she looked perfect with full face of makeup and tight designer dresses by Seth’s side, she was fully dependent on Seth in the heart. But with Grayson, she could be herself and everything as she liked.
