* Sumin is forced to lie about being pregnant so she can continue using Minhwan for her revenge plan. But marriage life is tougher than she thought, as she is basically a slave to both Minhwan and her mother-in-law. Her only solace is a woman (Jiwon) who she thought Minhwan was cheating on her with, only to become her new “friend” that she can consult with. After the press conference, Sumin finds out Minhwan is infertile and rubs it in her mother-in-law’s face, leaving her as she goes into a stroke. When it looks like her mother-in-law will recover and expose her, Sumin kills her. She’s arrested during Minhwan and her mother-in-law’s funeral, but escapes and tries to run over Jiwon with a car, only to hit Jihyeok instead. She’s found guilty of murder and attempted murder and is sentenced to life in prison. Finally, Sumin tries to send Jiwon’s mother to her daughter but that ends with Jiwon finally cutting Sumin off for good.

** Minhwan’s downfall begins when Sumin claims to be pregnant with his child; because of his conservative parents, he’s forced to marry her. Their marriage is quite awful, with most of their time together spent arguing. Minhwan longs for Jiwon once more, which is what leads him to try to break them up by exposing Jihyeok’s connection to the chairman. The ensuing press conference gets him fired and reveals to him that Sumin was never pregnant. Soon after, his mother collapses; he discovers he’s infertile; and his debt gets so bad he’s near broke. Finally, Minhwan snaps and decides to kill Sumin, only to end up crashing the car he was going to use for the murder on his way to see his dead mother, and then falls into the river below and drowns.
