Alla and her husband Yevgeny had dreamed of having a child for many years—this cherished dream filled their thoughts and warmed their hearts. After much deliberation, the couple decided to take a difficult step: surrogacy. It seemed to them that they had found the perfect candidate: modest and kind Irina appeared to be the embodiment of reliability. However, when Irina moved into their home, the idyllic picture began to crumble. The woman whom Alla saw as a helper turned out to be a sophisticated manipulator, ready to resort to any trick in order to establish herself in someone else’s family. Irina deftly ingratiated herself with Yevgeny, quietly sowed seeds of doubt between the spouses, and caused minor troubles, skillfully concealing her actions. At the climax, she made a false accusation against Alla. Blinded by the intrigues, Yevgeny threw his wife out, depriving her of her means of livelihood and the chance to be close to their future child.
