After My Husband's Lies

My husband had an affair with my "best friend" Belle Brown.

To divorce me, he schemed to make me isolated and estranged.

My son, whom I carried for nine months, said he hated me. My parents forbade me from returning to their house, and the neighbors treated me like a rat crossing the street.

I thought I was a complete mess and even considered suicide.

When I finally woke up, I regained the moral high ground and made the bastard and bitch pay the price.

You want to leave with nothing?

I'll never go easy on you.

The car behind forcefully cut in, causing me to step on the gas, and my car crashed into the back of another vehicle.

I confronted the driver with the video from my car's recorder and unexpectedly discovered nauseating sounds recorded in the video.

My husband cheated on me with my "best friend" Belle Brown.

At that moment, my scalp went numb, my spine felt cold, and I felt like the world was spinning. I almost fainted.

I met my husband Liam Miller in the first year of high school, and we had been together for seven years.

After six years of marriage, we had always been loving and had a lovely son.

I thought I was the happiest woman in the world.

I never thought that Liam, who was considered a good husband by everyone, would cheat on me.

My car had a flat tire, and I drove Liam's because I was in a hurry to meet a client.

Perhaps they forgot that the driving recorder would not only record images outside the vehicle but also the sound inside the car.

They were not only being intimate in the car but also discussing how to plot against me.

Liam and Belle conspired to divorce me and leave me with nothing after everyone turned against me.

The heart-wrenching pain and the terrifying betrayal lingered in my mind as if I were in the abyss of despair. There was a moment when I thought about ending my life.

"Dad, can you divorce Anna Smith? I want Miss Brown to be my mom."

The voice of my son in the video brought me back to my senses.

My son, whom I carried for nine months, had said more than once that he hated me and wished I were dead.

He was only five years old and didn't know how to lie. Every word came from the bottom of his heart.

Hearing that, I felt despair deep down.

I had doubted myself over and over again, wondering how terrible I must be for my once-dependent son to say such hurtful words.

Because of that, I had spent sleepless nights in sadness.

Every day when I woke up, I thought about my terrible son, my terrible husband, my terrible relatives, as well as my terrible neighbors. I had doubted myself more than once and even thought about suicide.

But Liam told me that it was because I was too busy with work and neglected my son's feelings. He asked me to quit my job and spend some more time with my son.

To regain my son's love for me, I had planned to submit my resignation letter after meeting with the client today.

But unexpectedly, I discovered the conspiracy between Liam and Belle.

With hands covering my face, tears soaked my palms.

I began to reexamine myself. When did my husband start to think I was being unreasonable, when did my son, whom I carried for nine months, say he hated me, when did my parents forbid me from returning to their house, and when did the neighbors treat me like a rat crossing the street?

It seemed to have started three years ago when Belle moved to my residential area. My life and work gradually became a mess.

I didn't even know what I had done wrong. We had been together for 13 years, but Liam hated me to the bone.

Not only did he want to abandon me, but he also wanted to destroy everything I had.

I didn't know how long it took for me to regain my sanity. I wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes.

At that very moment, I was alone and had no one to rely on but myself.

I could only rely on myself to take back what belonged to me.

Liam, you can hate me, but you must never separate me from my son whom I carried for nine months.

Belle, I am willing to offend the neighbors for you, but you covet my husband and even want to take away my son.

You want me to be isolated and have nothing.

And I want you to reap what you have sown and pay double the price!
