Henry had it all – a beautiful wife, a successful career, and a growing family. The only complication was his aging mother Edith, whose wheelchair needs inconvenienced his perfect life. When wife Courtney declared Edith a “danger” to their unborn child, Henry made the easy choice rather than the right one.
For years, Henry convinced himself his mother was fine in the nursing home. Then karma intervened spectacularly – Courtney’s affair and financial betrayal left him as alone as he’d made Edith feel. Returning to the nursing home, Henry was stunned to learn his mother had left with David, the janitor who saw her value when her own son didn’t.
The cottage he found radiated warmth and joy, a stark contrast to his empty mansion. Watching his mother exchange vows with David months later, Henry finally understood true love isn’t about convenience – it’s about showing up. When kind-hearted Clara entered his life, he vowed never to take love for granted again. Sometimes we must lose everything to remember what truly matters.
