Amanda’s father abandoned her and her sick mother when she was a baby. Years later, she saw his photo in the newspaper with his young fiancée, Clara. “Betrayal is nothing new to you,” Amanda whispered, plotting revenge.
She broke into his house, planted her earring on his bed, and pretended to be his secret lover. When Clara found the earring, she accused Robert of cheating and left him. Amanda felt satisfied—until she later overheard that Robert and Clara still had a lavish wedding.
Her mother’s words echoed in her mind: “Anger is like a heavy stone… Sometimes, forgiveness is the only option.” Realizing revenge hadn’t healed her, Amanda decided to face her father.
When she confessed she was his daughter, Robert was shocked and remorseful. “I never meant to abandon you… Please forgive me.” Amanda listened to his regrets and finally said, “I guess I forgive you, Dad… I can’t carry this anger anymore.”
