A homeless woman is deprived of her rights to look after her son when cops take him away to social services, but months later, a stranger – a rich man – comes to her rescue.
Successful businessman Jeffrey Weeks was a stringent man who never rested until he achieved what he wanted, and these days, his attention was focused on the homeless woman he’d often see outside his office.
The first time he’d seen her was almost a week ago when he arrived early for work. She sat on the roadside, looking at passersby with needy eyes, hoping that someone would help her, not by giving her meager money for barely surviving, but by offering her a job so that she could live her life in a dignified manner with her newborn – as the placard beside her suggested.

Jeffrey had felt something for her the first time he saw her – perhaps it was affection or sympathy due to her condition, but he knew he had to do something to help her. And after much contemplation, he decided that he’d offer her a job so she could look after her newborn.
But first, he needed to make sure that her background was clean. After all, there wasn’t a shortage of smugglers and drug peddlers in New York, sitting under the hoods of homeless people and beggars, casting their eyes around for the next member to join their circle, buy the “stuff,” and help them mint more money for their bosses.
So Jeffrey asked his secretary, Mr. Harris, to investigate the woman’s background. One week later, when Mr. Harris returned with a detailed report about her, Jeffery’s heart just melted.
It turned out the woman’s name was Amanda Conner. She worked as a receptionist at a hotel, but the hotel’s business suffered due to the pandemic, and she was laid off.
Worse, it happened just a month after she lost her husband to pneumonia. Her son was born a few days after her husband died in a local hospital, and she was evicted from her home because she couldn’t afford the rent.
After hearing her story, Jeffrey made the decision to approach her and offer her a job the following morning. However, when he arrived there, he saw something that left him distressed.
