My Broken Marriage Chapter 5
Just who could be his father, I wondered.Sarah didn't seem to have many friends, and she rarely kept in touch with her old classmates.As far as I knew, she hardly ever went out except for occasional visits to her parents' home.Ding ding—A phone notification interrupted my thoughts.It was Sarah.Of course, the Sheldons were probably getting restless.In the past, whenever Sarah went back to her parents' home, I'd show up at their door with gifts within two days.This time, five whole days had passed without a word from me.The Sheldon house was spacious enough for Peter, Lucy, and Sarah's brother's family.But with Sarah and Ethan there too, it must be cramped.Besides, in Peter and Lucy's minds, they have always preferred her brother to her.It was fine to help out, but they wouldn't want her freeloading for long.[Damien, are you very busy with work lately? Why aren't you coming home?]Sarah's message caught my attention. I clearly remembered not telling her about m

The next day, I arrived early at the kindergarten entrance, and finally, I saw a woman who somewhat resembled the woman in the photos. If it weren't for the little girl she was holding hands with, who looked very similar to Ethan, I wouldn't have been sure it was her.The woman in the photos was slim and tall, with delicate features. The person before me... was rather overweight, and her once-fine features were obscured. Only her height remained unchanged, but due to her weight, she appeared even more imposing.Susie dropped off her child at the kindergarten, and I quickly approached her."Ms. Leonard, excuse me. I have some photos of Mr. Larson that might interest you."Susie was wary of my sudden appearance but curious about what I had to say. Seeing this, I quickly pulled up a photo on my phone.When Susie saw the image, her eyes widened in shock."Can we talk privately?"This time, Susie readily agreed, angrily leading me to a nearby café with decent privacy.I showed S

Without me being their ATM anymore and with Sarah turning a blind eye, David wouldn't be able to come up with the money to pay me back, and the court would seize his property.Peter and Lucy finally realized the gravity of the situation and came to my workplace, crying and making a scene.Lucy put on a full show - crying, shouting, and threatening suicide. Like a shrew, she sat in the company lobby, cursing me as a despicable person. She listed all my supposed wrongdoings, claiming I neglected my wife and child, disrespected my parents-in-law, and even forced my wife's brother into a divorce.It was lunchtime, so a crowd of employees gathered at the entrance to watch the drama unfold. Everyone sympathized with the tearful Lucy, whispering about me, their faces full of disdain."I never imagined he'd be this kind of person.""Exactly. You would've never guessed.""Someone so cold-blooded toward his own wife and child managed to climb up to supervisor?"Before I could defend mysel
My Broken Marriage Chapter 8
I'm not afraid of people laughing at me for being cheated on. I didn't make the mistake of having an affair, so I don't need to feel embarrassed on their behalf. However, since everyone's talking about it, it's better to explain everything clearly. That's why I said, "Oh, and Mr. Larson, please come pick up your son as soon as possible."Sarah has been consumed with her own thoughts these past few days.She left the child at the Sheldons' house and went into hiding.Without me as her personal ATM, she doesn't want to spend any more money on the Sheldon family, who seem to have endless needs.Lucy still doesn't know that Ethan isn't my child. She calls me every day, urging me to come pick up the kid.It would be dishonest to say I have no feelings for Ethan. I do feel somewhat connected to him, but we're not meant to have a father-son relationship. It's better to end it quickly rather than prolong the pain.If he ever blames anyone when he grows up, it should be his irresponsible
My Broken Marriage Chapter 9
Lucy took the opportunity to push Ethan into my arms, saying:"You watched this child grow up. Sarah is so cruel, abandoning him without a care. Poor Ethan cries for you every day, asking for his dad."I looked at the crying child in my arms, who should now be called Ethan Larson, and instinctively started to comfort him. In such a short time, he had lost a considerable amount of weight, which was truly heartbreaking to see.However, I had no intention of being fooled again by raising their child willingly.Seeing me with Ethan, Lucy quickly turned to leave. Larry Palmer, my business partner who knew the whole story about Sarah and me, rushed to stop her.After calming Ethan down, I placed him back in Lucy's arms and said coldly, "This child has nothing to do with me. I won't be responsible for him. Please don't disturb my life again, or I'll call the police.""Also, tell Sarah to salvage whatever little dignity she has left."It was likely Sarah's idea for Lucy to come find me.

Finally, I was promoted.After years of hard work, I became the department head today.The tedious tasks wouldn't be my responsibility anymore.I would have more time to watch Ethan grow and share the burden of managing our household.After handing over my old duties, I could leave work early for once.A content smile appeared on my face as I thought of Sarah alone at home with our son.On my way home, I stopped by the florist to buy her favorite roses, eager to share the good news.When I arrived, I found Sarah asleep by Ethan's crib, showing signs of fatigue.Our son sat quietly in his stroller, playing with a toy truck.I placed the flowers aside and tiptoed over, about to lift her when her iPhone screen suddenly lit up with a notification.I knew her passcode, but we had always trusted each other and never checked each other's phones.Yet somehow, I found myself tapping the screen. The message read: "Sarah, what's our son doing now?"I froze, briefly wondering if I had
My Broken Marriage Chapter 2
One time was after our engagement.I had finally saved enough for a down payment and planned to buy a house near my office, which would serve as our marital home.However, Sarah disagreed. She and her family took turns trying to convince me otherwise, carefully analyzing the pros and cons.In the end, I ended up buying the small, old apartment her parents had lived in for twenty years.Meanwhile, her parents used the money from selling me their place to buy a spacious new condo with a river view.At that time, Sarah nestled in my arms, sweetly calling me "hubby."She said this apartment was in the best school district, ensuring our future children would receive an excellent education.As we planned our future together, my heart was filled with warmth and anticipation.I thought the old place wasn't so bad – it had character. It was just further from work, but I figured I'd work harder and buy a car to make the commute easier.The other time was shortly after her miscarriage.
My Broken Marriage Chapter 3
Afraid of giving myself away, I retreated to the bedroom.Late that night, while Sarah and Ethan slept soundly, I laid in bed, unable to sleep.As I reflected on the years Sarah and I spent together, it was hard to believe that it was all a lie.Throughout our time together, she never complained about my late nights at work or countless unavoidable business dinners.Whenever I felt like giving up, I would think about how understanding she was and use that as motivation to work harder, feeling indebted to her.But now I realized that she never loved me at all.She didn't care if I came home or who I dined with because she didn't love me.She purposely ignored the strong smell of whiskey on me every night and how weak I looked after coughing up blood because she didn't love me.Fueled by this realization, I quietly got out of bed.I took Sarah's iPhone and backed up all the chat history onto my own device.Then, I accessed "Darling Hubby's" account to investigate further.It w
