“Mahal pa rin kita, pero ayokong mahalin ka nang may pagdududa. Kasi alam kong that’s what we deserve, all or nothing at all. I gave you everything pero binalewala mo lang lahat,” explained Monica.
Adrian respected Monica’s decision, but before they split their way Adrian told her that he heard her voice when he was in a condition between life and death, figuring in a car accident. Because of that, he has realized that there is a reason that he needed to survive for her and their children, he said.

At the same time, she received the call from Jacob’s nanny, informing her that her son Jacob was inside the car sleeping while she drove off going to the hospital to visit Adrian. Only that time she realized that long time ago she left her son inside the car, then she rushed to get him out.
After knowing that Monica was the one saves the life of her son, Nicole apologized to her. And Monica told Nicole to take care of her son Jacob, because he will be the one to give her the love that she has been looking for.

Monica also told her mother Eloisa (Rio Locsin) about her feelings that she was feared of the possibility of being hurt again after she held Jacob the son of her ex-husband Adrian with Nicole.
“I thought I married a man of integrity. Ang taas-taas ang tingin ko sa kanya. Kaya nu’ng nagawa niya ‘yun, ang sakit-sakit ‘Nay, durog na durog ako. Ang tagal kong inayos ang sarili ko ‘Nay. Akala ko enough na yung tatlong taon na magkahiwalay kami. Pero nu’ng nahawakan ko ‘yung anak ni Nicole, bumalik lahat. Yung fear, yung doubt, kaya tinatanong ko ang sarili ko kung kaya ko pa,” Monica lamented.
The reconciliation took place during the final episode, a healthy indication that life will be moving forward, with the characters opting for a fresh start with their lives and relationships.

The legal wife is a great movie,the lesson i learnt from it is that men are something else,i really feel so bad for Monica after all the trust,love and care she showed him ,he still cheated on her!
Love is sweet but can be painful at times
Monica is a disciplinarian. Bold and fearless. She interests me with her natural actions. It’s good she would not remarry Adrian.
