My Husband Has a Mistress

For three consecutive years, Nate Jackel had a wedding dress customized each year and gifted it to the woman he loved most.

When reporters asked me how I felt, I looked at the trending headlines filled with this so-called "true love" hype and sneered.

“What’s there to praise about an affair between a cheating husband and his mistress?”

That night, Nate rented out a rooftop restaurant and had ten thousand drones launched into the sky to celebrate Grace Lawson’s birthday. In his way, he was telling the entire world that he loved her.

That was fine by me. As long as I stayed married, Grace would forever be a mistress.

My remarks about my cheating husband, Nate Jackel, and his mistress, Grace Lawson, made her cry until her eyes turned red. That very night, Nate tried to restore her dignity.

I leaned back on the couch and stared at the cold necklace placed in front of me. I laughed. Then the tears came.

It was our third wedding anniversary. Once again, Nate had sent the same necklace. Regardless of the occasion, it was always the same design.

"Wendy Keller, you broke Grace's necklace. From now on, every gift you get will be this one," he had once said.

That was his way of annoying me.

I didn't care. I snapped a photo and listed it on a resale site.

Even the previous buyer came back to mock me. "Miss, can't you switch up the style? Are you wholesaling these or what?"

I laughed too. "It's an authentic boutique item. This is the only supply channel. Make do with it."

After midnight, Nate came home. He glanced in my direction, walked straight over, and handed me a divorce agreement.

"Sign it. She's pregnant. We can't wait any longer."

I looked at him calmly. "What an impressive birthday gift. It took her three years to replace me. That was a long probation period. The benefits must be great.

"I'm stepping aside as the legal wife. Asking for half your assets wouldn't be unreasonable."

"You don't deserve it." Nate looked at me with pure disgust.

I tore up the agreement. "Whether I deserve it or not is for the law to decide. Try me. As long as I don't agree, she won't ever become your legitimate wife. No matter how much you love her, that thing in her belly will still be an illegitimate child."

I turned around and went upstairs. Downstairs, Nate smashed the coffee table.

I didn't care. It wasn't my money anyway.

I wasn't dumb. Three years ago, when that wedding dress arrived at my door, I had already checked his assets. Now he wanted to send me off with a mere four million? In his dreams!

I was being mocked publicly. Why should they get to celebrate in peace?

If I were going to be hurt, then they should be hurt as well!

I retrieved my phone and made a transfer of 140 grand. Within minutes, news about Grace
