Eliza was excited to meet her son Adam’s girlfriend, but her joy turned to shock when she discovered Helen was much older. During their first meeting, Eliza struggled to hide her disdain, asking Helen pointed questions like, “You’re going to be what, seventy next year?” Despite Helen’s calm demeanor, Eliza couldn’t accept her son’s relationship, even confronting Helen harshly: “You’re nothing but a washed-up old woman trying to cling to a younger man.”
Adam defended Helen, but Eliza’s actions worsened, leading Helen to break up with Adam. Eliza soon realized her mistake when she discovered Helen was grieving her own late husband. She felt guilty and posted a heartfelt apology online, hoping to make amends.
To her surprise, Helen returned, and together they began to cook, bonding over the shared experience. When Adam returned home, he was relieved to see his mother and girlfriend getting along. Eliza, finally accepting Helen, looked forward to the future with her son’s new love.
