I Exposed My Husband's Affair with His Best Friend

She just pressed it, and within three seconds, someone responded.

"Hello, this is Customer Service Center. Is there an emergency situation you need assistance with?"

"It's nothing. I accidentally pressed it."

Mia replied as if it were routine.

Then she said to me.

"You see, in case of an accident, even if you don't have time to call the police, someone will respond promptly and help you report it."

Oliver eagerly chimed in.

"Darling, buy it. The money we save can be used for a trip to Oakland."

Having experienced the previous life, I remained unmoved and refused, saying.

"I've signed up for a summer camp for Alex. I don't have that much money on hand for the time being."

At a critical moment, Oliver didn't understand my clear refusal.

"When did that happen? Why didn't I know."

Mia clicked her tongue and reprimanded me.

"Samantha, this is your problem. Enrolling Alex in a summer camp is a big deal. Why didn't you discuss it with Oliver?"

"Here's what we'll do. Give me however much money you have now. Write me an IOU for the rest, and you can pay me back whenever you have the money."

"We're good friends. I trust you."

I kept signaling to Oliver to refuse her.

But Oliver, like a fool, ignored my hints and fetched paper and a pen from my bag.

"Mia has gone to these lengths. It wouldn't be right to not buy it now," he said.

Mia urged me.

"Hurry up and write it. I'm waiting to repay this money."

"We're old classmates; you wouldn't want me to resort to borrowing from loan sharks, would you?"

Oliver forcefully handed me the pen, showing even more urgency than Mia.

"Honey, what are you still hesitating for."

"Mia is our old classmate. She came to us in a time of need. She didn't ask to borrow money from us, nor did she ask us to do anything. Just help her buy a car, that's all."

"It's perfect for us, too, as we need a car. Isn't this a win-win situation?!"

Both of them turned to look at me anxiously from the driver and passenger seats.

I suddenly realized that when it came to buying Mia's car, Oliver was more enthusiastic than he was about playing the game.

Normally, when he finished work, Oliver would just sit on the couch and play games. He wouldn't even help if our child fell down.

I had to take care of everything at home.

I dealt with everything from buying and decorating the house to running errands.

I was the one who drove the car at home.

Oliver only rode a small electric scooter, claiming it was faster than a car in traffic and didn't require stopping at red lights.

In the previous life, when Mia said she was being harassed by creditors, I had softened up and bought the car without hesitation.

And she introduced a car that had the same automatic alarm function as a mobile phone. I bought the car without hesitation.

Now, I was as tough as iron, unmoved as a mountain.

I had never doubted the actions of Oliver.

I stared at Oliver and said, "I'll think about it again."

Sure enough, Oliver was more anxious than Mia.

"She's already driven the car home. We can't let her drive the car back!"

"We're old classmates. If you do this, how can we contact each other in the future?"

I was puzzled. Apart from being middle school classmates and not having been in touch for a long time, where did this future interaction come from?

Mia interrupted my thoughts.

"Samantha, do you really want me to drive the car back?"

"I came to you because I trust you. If you don't want it, I'll sell it to someone else, so as not to waste time here."

Oliver quickly added, "Did you hear that? Mia isn't unable to find someone to help. She's the one who believes in you, her old friend, and came to you first."

In my previous life, when I didn't know anything, of course, I would have been persuaded by their perfect cooperation.

At that moment, my mother-in-law Emma called, saying my father-in-law Justin had fallen and broken his leg, and they needed 4,000 for the surgery.

In my previous life, I gave all my money to Mia.

As a result, we didn't have any extra money.

I urgently borrowed 1,000 from a friend and sent it over.

Since I was in charge of the money at home, Emma thought I was stingy.

And unwilling to spend money on Justin's treatment.

She was daring Oliver to divorce me.

And even made this matter public.

Oliver was caught in the middle and pressured me to make a decision.

I compromised and started giving my in-laws 800 dollars per month as pocket money. Only when I brought my in-laws to live with us did the gossip in the neighborhood stop

And their hearts were at ease.

But from then on, there was constant chaos at home.

This time, when they called, without a second thought, I transferred 4,000 dollars to their account.
