Why Is He Regretting Feeding Us Dog Food?

On our seventh wedding anniversary, my husband, Nate Anderson, told me that he had offended a mob boss. On the same night, he sent our daughter, Poppy Anderson, and I to go into hiding in the desert.

Halfway through the journey, I recalled that I had forgotten to pack my daughter’s asthma medication. Hence, I quickly went back.

However, I saw Nate celebrating with his friends in our mansion.

“Nate, aren’t you worried that Lila and Poppy are going to starve in the remote area that you’ve sent them to?”

Nate said indifferently, “Don’t worry about it. I’ve repackaged the unsold dog food from Emma’s shop and sent it to them. They won’t starve.”

Emma leaned her head against Nate’s chest.

“Baby, you’re so smart. Do you think our child will be more like you or me?”

Nate looked at her lovingly and kissed her.

“Regardless of who our child resembles, I’ll love him or her the most.”

His friend could not stand it anymore.

“Since you don’t love Lila, why did you marry her and have Poppy with her?”

Nate lit a cigarette. He looked a little cross.

“I only slept with Lila because I was afraid that Emma would think I was inexperienced, but I didn’t expect her to get pregnant after that one time.

“I only married her out of responsibility. I feel bad for Emma. She was with me for so many years, but our relationship had no label.

I stood on the other side of the door, feeling chilled to the bone.

Three years later, Nate video-called me with a big smile.

“Lila, it’s all over. Are you and Poppy doing well? I’ll come get you.”

I looked at the man, who was hugging me tightly in his sleep.

“We’re doing good! My new husband keeps me very satisfied, and Poppy has started to call him ‘Daddy.’”

On the other end of the video call, Nate Anderson was slightly stunned.

Then, he laughed.

“Lila, why are you still so stubborn? I know you’ve suffered in the desert for three years, and that you’re upset about it. You just said you have a new husband to make me feel bad, right?”

I stared coldly at his smug face.

“Nate, I’m serious.”

He did not believe me at all.

Emma Smith suddenly popped up on the screen.

She had makeup on. She was also wearing the necklace that Nate said was for me on our seventh anniversary.

“Lila, don’t be stubborn. There are only camels and sand in the desert. How could you have found a new husband? Did you randomly marry a homeless man who was walking through the desert?”

She giggled and looked at me tauntingly.

Nate pulled her into his arms.

“Emma, don’t say that. It makes sense that her mind isn’t quite right, since she’s been
