“Ugh, disgusting. An ungrateful bitch who used a man to climb up and still strayed—why hasn’t karma struck her yet?”
Ethan laughed angrily, veins popping on his forehead.
“Melissa Carter, have you lost your mind? I’ve got patience, but I’m no saint.”
“Get this straight—you’re the one who cheated, not me. So why the hell should I be the one to walk away with nothing?”
And he wasn’t wrong. The one who cheated was me.
So I replied,
“Yes, you’re absolutely right.”
“But that doesn’t change the fact—you’ll still be the one leaving with nothing.”
The room fell dead silent.
Everyone stared at me in shock, not understanding why I would say something like that.
Mrs. Walker recovered first. While I wasn’t looking, she raised her hand and slapped me again.
“You crazy woman, what kind of nonsense are you spouting?”
“If it weren’t for your weak health, my son never would have agreed to a vasectomy out of pity for you. With any other daughter-in-law, I’d already be a grandmother by now!”
Her anger only grew.
