People knew Conon, a self-made businessman, for his charitable work. His wife Margaret, on the other hand, didn’t agree with his charitable work. She thought that his kindness was a waste of their hard-earned money, and her dislike of his kindness would finally make them break up.
When Margaret learnt that Conon went to an old metal hut every day, it made her suspicious. She started to wonder if he was cheating on her or hiding a child. What she found would change everything because she was interested in Conon.
When Margaret asked Conon about his trips to the hut, he gave her a gift. Lucy, the woman he was visiting, wasn’t his lover; she was a single mum who was having a hard time because her partner had left her. Conon took it upon himself to take care of Lucy and her child, giving them food, a place to stay, and warmth.
Even though Conon tried to explain, Margaret’s anger and hatred only got worse. She thought his kindness was a betrayal, and because she wouldn’t try to figure out why he was being kind, their marriage would end.
As things got worse, Margaret did something drastic: she tried to take away Lucy’s parenting rights. But Conon wouldn’t just sit there and do nothing. When he faced Margaret, he told her a painful truth from his past that made him want to help people in need.
What Conon said didn’t make any sense, and what Margaret did was the last straw. Margaret had to deal with the effects of what she did when Conon filed for divorce. While she was having a hard time adjusting to her new life, Conon continued to do well. His kindness and giving inspired everyone around him.
While Conon and Margaret’s marriage did end in divorce, his story shows that being truly kind and generous can cost a lot over time. Conon moved on and fell in love with Lucy again. They built a life together full of love, kindness, and sensitivity.
