My Husband and Sister Stole my Inheritance to Start a Family

Chapter 3

I arrived home with much struggle. Luckily for me, the maid and security helped me to the bedroom upstairs, as I was still too weak and needed to recover.

I spent days in bed before I regained my strength. I made up my mind once I was on my feet to leave this charade of a marriage. If it's Chrissy, Kason wants as much as it hurts; he can have her, they're both horrible monsters who deserve each other.

But first things first, I needed concrete evidence of what Kason had paid those men to do to me, also of his affair with my sister.

They were going to pay ever so dearly.

Spotting Kason’s laptop, I unlocked it using my birthday, but it didn't work. I tried his, but it also didn't work. Almost givingp up I typed Chrissy's birthday and it opened.

The wallpaper was of him and Chrissy having I romantic dinner, it looked months old. I logged into his social media account, and I saw Chrissy's chat pinned and also another chat when I opened the profile picture.

My heart skipped a beat, tears stung the corners of my eyes, and I trembled. It was the leader of the men who had humiliated me and made indecent videos of me, I can never forget his face.

I pushed myself despite the trauma to open the chat and saw they had made arrangements to do it again to me, so he could use the embarrassment as a reason for the divorce.

I had to get out of here before this happens to me again.

My hands shook as I hooked the laptop to the printer and printed out the messages. Mustering my courage, I opened Chrissy's own and read the disgusting sexual messages they had sent to each other, including nude pictures.

Unable to take anymore of it, I cleared the history and shut down the laptop. I download divorce papers and print them too, I sign both copies and leave one for Kason in his drawer.

Just as I do that, the door opens suddenly and I freeze in fear.

“What are you doing in my drawer?” Kason says suspiciously.

I turned to him, “Nothing. I was looking for a pen to write something down.” I say slightly stuttering.

He furrows his eyebrows at me in amusement, “To write what down exactly?”

I calmly explain, “Nothing, it's just that I'm planning our first anniversary together early, you know we missed the six-month mark.” He relaxed visibly.

“That's sweet of you. I'm sorry I had to travel impromptu, but you should be happy. I took your sister on a vacation to make her feel better, you know her pregnancy is still early and is affecting her.”

“Of course,” I say dryly, remembering how he had stolen the experience from me and caused me to have a miscarriage.

I felt a repulsive dislike for him for what he did.

Unconsciously, my hand went to my belly; my baby was once there.

Kason noticed, “We'll have another one, the baby didn't survive the accident. And I wonder why you never told me about it.” He said, shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly.

If looks could kill, mine would have set him ablaze. He was lying to my face about what happened; he didn't know I was awake at the time and heard it all.

“Stop looking at me like that. And you look terrible, by the way. Are you sure you've recovered properly?” He asked, faking sweet concern.

“I'm fine.” I lie through my teeth.

“Good, cause your mother has set up a small celebratory dinner for your sister's pregnancy. It's happening this evening, you've been graciously invited. Make yourself look decent for it, I won't be able to take you as I want to bring Chrissy. You know she's still very fragile and sensitive due to the pregnancy.”

I swallow back my tears.

“I'll make it.” I almost whisper my voice hoarse with emotion, but Kason doesn't even give me a second look.

He drags his suitcase to the closet and comes out dressed in a fresh set of clothes.

He gives me a cheeky smile, “See you this evening. I'll send a cab to get you, make sure you take your medications.”

He turns to leave and bangs the door shut, not even waiting for my response; he clearly can't wait to be reunited with Chrissy.

In the evening, I dressed up and waited for the cab, but it didn't come. Kason sends me a text ‘Get there yourself, plans changed. I'm too busy to look for a cab for you.”

Resolved, I ordered a cab and went, knowing in my heart this is the last family event I'm ever going to attend. They wouldn't know this, but this is my goodbye to them.
