Lena has a pair of stunning legs, a sexy figure, and delicate facial features. However, Lena is still being physically abused by her husband, Ray Reardon. You might think that he doesn't know how to cherish women, but when you find out what a woman has done, you might feel that he deserves to hit her. At a party a year ago, Ray Reardon accidentally bumped into a beautiful woman and spilled wine on Lena's chest. Lena told Ray Reardon to stop. Ray Reardon is handsome and surrounded by women who sp
eak sweet words. So Lena walked away while cursing at him. A few days later, Ray Reardon met Lena again at the supermarket. Lena's demeanor was completely different from that at the party. This time, Lena apologized to Ray Reardon. Ray Reardon was instantly captivated by Lena. Ray Reardon decided not to miss the opportunity and took the initiative to strike up a conversation, inviting Lena to dinner. At the dinner table, the two of them started chatting about their families. Lena talked about he
r own experiences, how she had a miserable childhood and her mother used to beat her. As she grew up, she became the vice president of sales at a company. However, when her boss tried to take advantage of her, she refused and was fired from the company. Moreover, her boss used his connections to make sure Lena couldn't find another job. She had no choice but to move to this city and start over. Ray Reardon was even more attracted to Lena's personality. They had a great time chatting that night.
When Ray Reardon returned home, he was deeply attracted by Lena's demeanor. He was determined to pursue her. However, strangely enough, Ray Reardon couldn't find any information about Lena's background no matter what he tried. Since he couldn't find anything, Ray Reardon decided to secretly watch Lena's house from afar. But on this night, Ray Reardon saw a man walking Lena home and kissing her goodbye. Ray Reardon couldn't take it anymore and rang the doorbell. Lena opened the door and Ray Reard
on eagerly asked, "Who was that man?" Lena replied that he was just one of her gay friends. Ray Reardon was relieved. The atmosphere in the room instantly became ambiguous. That night, the two of them confirmed their relationship. Not long after, Ray Reardon officially proposed to Lena. Although Lena knew that Ray Reardon had been divorced before, she still accepted happily. They entered the marriage hall and 10 months later, they had a child. Their life was sweet, but Ray Reardon noticed that L
ena's behavior was becoming more and more strange. Lena often made phone calls, saying that she was dancing with her girlfriend. But every time Ray Reardon approached Lena, she hung up the phone. On their wedding anniversary, the couple went to a restaurant to eat. Mary saw Lena and was surprised, calling her Sissi. Lena said she had mistaken her for someone else and that she wasn't Sissi. Ray Reardon began to suspect Lena's identity. Everything before was what Lena had told him, and Ray Reardon
had never verified it. Ray Reardon was determined to find out Lena's past. He pretended to go on a business trip and went to the small town Mary had mentioned before. Ray Reardon showed Lena's photo and asked around. William recognized Lena and what he said next shocked Ray Reardon. Lena's real name was Sissi, and she was William's ex-wife. William used to be very wealthy, but now he was in this state because of Lena. Ray Reardon also learned that Lena's parents were nearby. He drove there and
knocked on the door. Lena's mother recognized Ray Reardon and invited him in. It turns out that Lena had been in contact with her family all along and had even sent them Ray Reardon's photo. But she lied and told them that Ray Reardon was an employee of the Central Intelligence Agency and couldn't reveal himself, so the elderly couple didn't dare to contact Lena proactively. Ray Reardon realized that Lena's mother wasn't as malicious as Lena had described her, and was actually quite warm. To fin
d out why Lena lied, Ray Reardon invited his in-laws back to their home. Lena's mother was surprised, while Lena was frightened. After an awkward conversation, Ray Reardon and Lena returned to their bedroom. Lena was furious and asked, "You still investigated me? You still don't trust me? I hid it for a reason. Wasn't it because I was afraid you would look down on our poverty that I lied to you?" Ray Reardon softened and forgave Lena. Ray Reardon said to Lena, "The past is gone. I love the prese
nt Lena." Lena seemed moved, and their relationship returned to the way it was before. At this time, they had their second child. Today, Larry joked that the child didn't look anything like Ray Reardon. Ray Reardon became suspicious because Lena had started making mysterious and frequent phone calls again. When Ray Reardon confronted her, Lena still used her best friend as an excuse. On this day, Lena's bill was sent to Ray Reardon's company. It recorded that Lena stayed in the same hotel every
Wednesday. Ray Reardon suddenly felt as if he was in a wide-open prairie. He went home and searched for Lena's hotel bill. However, Lena admitted to the affair herself. Lena told Ray Reardon that she had been involved with that man before she married Ray Reardon, and that man was Ray Reardon's good friend, and the two children at home were also his. Ray Reardon couldn't take it anymore, so he punched Lena and stormed out of the house. But then he realized that it wasn't his fault, so why should
he leave? Ray Reardon went home and prepared to kick Lena out, but when he entered the house, he found a mess and Lena was covered in bruises. The police and a psychologist arrived. Lena told the police that her husband, Ray Reardon, had a mental illness, and his condition was getting worse. The psychologist also testified that Lena was always bruised when she came for treatment. That night, the police sent Ray Reardon to a psychiatric hospital. The next day, the case was brought to court, and R
ay Reardon explained that he was not mentally ill and did not commit domestic violence. Lena was having an affair outside of their marriage. Every time she talked to her lover on the phone, she lied and said it was her best friend. The record of her renting a hotel room every Wednesday was evidence. Lena explained that her credit card had been stolen and the hotel staff could testify. Debby testified in court, saying that she did indeed talk to Lena frequently on the phone and they went shopping
every Wednesday. An angry Ray Reardon wanted to attack Lena in court, but now he has confirmed that he committed domestic violence. Under Lena's careful planning, Ray Reardon was diagnosed with a mental illness and a tendency towards violence. Ray Reardon was sent to a psychiatric hospital. Ray Reardon's property naturally belonged to Lena. In the hospital, Ray Reardon thought every day about who could be the man Lena was having an affair with. Ray Reardon thought of Larry, his good friend, who
was the most likely suspect. Ray Reardon was suspicious of Lena and had even told Larry about it. Larry encouraged Ray Reardon to investigate Lena and even said that Lena's children didn't look like Ray Reardon. Larry deliberately led Ray Reardon to expose Lena, in order to turn him into an abuser. The false bills were also pre-planned. Ray Reardon called Larry's wife Elaine and told her his suspicions. Elaine immediately realized why Larry had suddenly become so rich. Larry had even bought a v
illa in New Zealand, which his family could never afford. This confirmed Ray Reardon's suspicions. Elaine followed Ray Reardon's instructions and called Lena, saying that she had just visited Ray Reardon in the psychiatric hospital. Elaine also hinted to Lena that she had made a mistake and that her plan had flaws. Lena hung up the phone and immediately found Ray Reardon. The two of them walked and talked on the grassy field. Lena revealed her plan to Ray Reardon, including the planned encounter
s at the party, supermarket, and with her boyfriend that night. Lena was deliberately trying to provoke Ray Reardon, hoping to turn him into a real lunatic. When the two of them arrived at a deserted place, Lena asked Ray Reardon what mistake he had made. His plan was very meticulous and could not have any flaws. Ray Reardon said that the flaws in her plan turned him into a mental patient. Ray Reardon said that in this country, mentally ill patients should not be responsible for murder. After sp
eaking, Ray Reardon strangled Lena to death with his own hands. The movie ends here. The movie ends here. Highly recommend this movie in its original form, as there are surprises.
