Ten Years of DINK Life，Until My Bastard Kids Walked InChapter 1

On the tenth year of my agreement with my husband to remain child-free, I deliberately brought home a pair of illegitimate children.

Mrs. Walker slapped me hard across the face.

“You shameless whore! Take those bastards of yours and get the hell out of here.”

My parents were so furious they threatened to cut ties with me.

“From now on, don’t say you know us. We don’t have such a disgraceful daughter.”

Ethan Walker went even further, throwing divorce papers in my face.

“Divorce! Not only that—you’re leaving with nothing.”

I smiled faintly and looked at Ethan.

“Someone will walk away with nothing, but that someone won’t be me. It’ll be you.”

The moment those words fell, the crowd that had been whispering nearby erupted.

“Holy shit, never seen anything this shameless! She cheats and still demands her husband walk away empty-handed. Is there no justice left?”

“Exactly! I heard she married up. Her family only ran a small company before, and thanks to her husband’s connections it grew into a Fortune 500 company. Any other woman would worship him, and she cheats? She must be insane.”
