My Craft, Her GiftChapter 1
My husband stole and gifted my pottery piece to his beloved Kate for a Valentine’s Day surprise. She held it up proudly at a press conference, claiming it as her own and accusing me of stealing it.
Desperate for even a shred of support, I turned to him, but he only sneered, “Why would you take something that isn’t yours? You’re disgusting."
The crowd turned against me in an instant. Condemning me with glares and whispers, they left no room for me to defend myself.
Feeling utterly defeated, I walked away.
But fate has a way of circling back. Later, my husband and I crossed paths again at a charity gala.
This time, everything had changed.
I was the center of attention while he stood diminished and out of place, with tears in his eyes, begging me for another chance.
...
Under the spotlight, Kate held the original prototype of my ceramic vase at a press conference.
She condescendingly said, “If you can’t come up with your own work, maybe don’t even bother. Stealing someone else’s design is seriously low.”
I stood there, numb, staring at the prototype in her hands. Desperately, I reached out to Ryan, my husband, hoping he would finally stand by me.
