Alexandra was abandoned as a newborn with only a note: “Forgive me.” Raised by a cold, childless couple who never truly loved her, she endured loneliness, bullying, and hardship but fueled herself with rage and resolve. Through hard work and talent, she became successful, yet the emptiness remained.
With the help of her only friend Mikhail—a private detective—she found her birth mother, Irina, a broken woman living a hard life. Alexandra hired her as a cleaner to observe her, wrestling with pain and questions.
Their eventual confrontation revealed Irina’s regrets and the harsh reasons behind her decision. Alexandra chose not revenge or forgiveness but release—setting them both free from the past’s weight.
The story closes with Alexandra reaching out to start anew, carrying hope and strength forged through suffering.
