In a world where love and sacrifice intertwine, Charity believed she had built a life with Tom, the man she lifted from hardship to success.

When a devastating miscarriage shatters her dreams, Charity uncovers the truth behind Tom's deceit—a truth that cuts deeper than any knife.

He Repaid My Sacrifice with PoisonChapter 1

I gutted fish to pay for his college tuition. After we got married, I poured my entire savings into helping him start his business. He once said to me, “Charity, I owe you a debt I can never repay in this lifetime.”

“You’re my one and only. I’ll never let you down.”

But after he achieved success and fame, he drugged my soup, causing me to miscarry.

Meanwhile, the mistress he secretly kept mocked and humiliated me, ridiculing my humble background at every turn.

Heartbroken and disillusioned, I left a divorce agreement on the table and disappeared from his life. After I left, he went mad searching for me, saying that life without me was meaningless.

***

In a luxurious private hospital room, I lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling as tears streamed down my face.

I had miscarried.

Three months into the pregnancy and with no warning signs, my baby was gone. The weight of the loss crushed me. I couldn’t come to terms with it for a while.

My husband, Tom Webb, sat by the bed, gently holding my hand as he comforted me. “Charity, don’t be sad,” he said tenderly.
