Rebirth: Exposing a Cheating Daughter-in-Law and an Ungrateful Son Chapter 9
Herman’s words completely shattered my last shred of hope for him. I had raised him myself, and he knew full well that my husband’s tragic death was the deepest wound of my life, something I could never truly heal from. Yet, he had no problem turning that pain into a weapon against me.Thinking back to my previous life, when he had stood by and watched as Ruby pulled out my oxygen tube without lifting a finger to stop her, I finally gave up on this ungrateful son.I gave him one last look, said, “Take care of yourself,” and left.I retreated to my second home in the suburbs and spent my time in bed, watching the house cameras on my phone.As expected, David and Ruby showed up at Herman’s place. Ruby threw a freshly printed divorce agreement in Herman’s face, demanding that he leave the marriage with nothing.“You’ve been with Ruby for five years. Everything you have is hers by right,” David added, fanning the flames.But Herman didn’t even look at them. He just sat there, drinkin

"Mom, it’s time to go buy groceries. If you’re late, all the good stuff will be gone," my daughter-in-law, Ruby Larson, called out, still lounging on the sofa with her phone."The seafood at the East District market are fresh today. Go there to buy some!"She didn't even look up as she hurried me to leave. I glanced at her briefly, hiding my thoughts, and smiled as I agreed. Picking up my basket, I walked out of the house.The East District market is five kilometers away, which takes about two hours for a round trip. Still, I made my way there slowly and deliberately.Why? Because I had been reborn. I knew Ruby was just finding an excuse to get me out of the house.In my previous life, she used the exact same excuse to send me to the market. But I returned earlier than expected and caught her in bed with another man.Furious, I confronted her and called my son, Herman Simmons, home from work. I told him everything I’d witnessed. But Ruby refused to admit it, crying and playin

While I was carefully picking out vegetables at the market, my phone buzzed with a notification. I unlocked it and was immediately greeted by footage from the surveillance cameras I’d installed at home.In the video, my daughter-in-law, Ruby, was wearing a revealing lace nightgown, clinging to a slightly overweight man and kissing him passionately. The man was none other than her first boyfriend, David Sullivan.When I was reborn, one of the first things I did was install cameras at home, knowing this day would come. The two were so lost in each other they didn’t care where they were, moving from the living room all the way to the bedroom.In the video, Ruby was pinned beneath David, her cheeks flushed red. David, seeing her like this, smirked and teased her."You’ve got guts, Ruby—sneaking around with a man right in your own house. This is way too exciting!" He laughed and squeezed her waist roughly.Ruby squirmed like a snake, wrapping her legs around his waist and responding in

I could hear the unease in Ruby’s tone, so I played along, feigning curiosity. “What’s wrong, Ruby?”She stammered, “Oh, uh… the dog made a mess. There’s fur everywhere. I need to clean it up first.”I didn’t respond right away, and just as Ruby assumed I’d agree, I replied in a warm, motherly tone. “Oh, is that all? Don’t worry! I’ll come back and help you clean up.”Ruby was clearly stunned. She knew I disliked having dogs running loose in the house, which was why she’d used that excuse. She obviously hadn’t expected me to respond like that. After a brief pause, she tried again to convince me.“Mom, it’s just a small thing. I’ll handle it myself. You don’t need to see the mess—it’ll just stress you out.”But I didn’t budge. “Oh, it’s no trouble at all! And besides, today’s your wedding anniversary with Herman. I need to get back and start cooking dinner. I’ll grab a cab and be home soon.”“Mom! I told you not to come back yet—just stay out for now! Who cares about the anniversa

When I reached the entrance of our apartment complex, Herman arrived in a rush as well. He shot me a furious glare before dashing toward the building. I pretended to run after him for a bit, but when we got to the ground floor, there was no sign of any fire or firefighters. This only made Herman more anxious. He grabbed me roughly and demanded, “Didn’t you say Ruby was trapped in a fire?”I looked at him innocently. “Ruby called and told me not to come back because of a fire. I immediately called you. I don’t know anything more than that.”Suspicion flickered in his eyes, but he quickly reasoned that the kitchen was at the back of the apartment, so the fire might not be visible from the front. Without wasting another second, he pulled me along and hurried into the elevator.When we reached the door of our apartment, everything looked normal. The door was shut tight and locked from the inside. We couldn’t get in.Herman panicked even more. His eyes turned red as he grabbed a fir

Herman’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared at the two people sprawled on the floor. His face was twisted with rage, and it looked like his eyes might pop out of their sockets.“Ruby Larson, what the hell are you doing?!” he roared.His shout snapped everyone out of their shock. Ruby, realizing she was completely naked, immediately scrambled to grab the sofa blanket to cover herself. But every time she moved, David groaned in pain, telling her to be more gentle. The scene was so ridiculous that the neighbors watching couldn’t help but start whispering among themselves.“Ruby, your mother-in-law and husband have treated you so well. How could you do something so despicable?”“Ugh, disgusting! Cheating is bad enough, but to do it in your own home?”“I’ve always said Ruby didn’t seem like a good person. Now we all see the truth with our own eyes.”“Poor Herman. He doesn’t deserve a wife like this!”The neighbors’ comments came one after another, and Ruby was so mortified that she bur

The doctor worked tirelessly to separate Ruby and David. Ruby ended up with severe tears and had to stay in the hospital for treatment. As for David, possibly too ashamed, he transferred to another hospital immediately.It didn’t take long for the entire hospital to buzz with gossip about the cheating couple glued together by industrial-strength adhesive.When Herman saw Ruby again, his whole body trembled with anger. Finally, he exploded.“Ruby Larson, we’re getting a divorce!”Hearing the word “divorce,” Ruby panicked. She climbed off the hospital bed and dropped to her knees in front of him, clutching his pant leg as tears streamed down her face.“Honey, please, I don’t want a divorce. I was wrong! I know I messed up!” she cried. “That man tricked me! I was confused for a moment, but you’re the one I love most, my husband!”“I promise I’ll never do this again. Please forgive me this one time. I’ll dedicate myself to being a good wife and living a proper life with you!” Ruby so

Hearing the words "paternity test," Ruby visibly panicked, but she forced herself to agree with a stiff nod. Her eyes darted around nervously before she shot me a disdainful glance.I caught the subtle twitch of her lips and immediately knew what she was thinking—she was probably planning to bribe someone to fake the results. But whether she’d even make it to that point was another question entirely.Herman, on the other hand, saw Ruby’s willingness to take the test as a sign of her innocence. He became fully convinced the baby was his. From that moment on, he quit his job to become Ruby’s full-time caretaker during her hospital stay.I couldn’t have cared less. If Herman wanted to play the fool, that was his choice. I simply returned home to enjoy my days in peace.While relaxing at home, I began crafting the next act in this drama. I knew Herman loved watching gossip videos on short-form platforms every night, so I submitted a story to one of his favourite creators.That evening

Thankfully, the nurse arrived just in time, and Ruby was lucky enough that the baby in her womb was saved. The only ones happy about this outcome, however, were Ruby and David Sullivan. Herman sat slumped in a corner, hugging his head in despair.David, never missing a chance to mock, sneered at him. “Herman, you’re nothing but a loser. You have azoospermia. You’ll never father a child in your life.”He smirked and added, “To be honest, I’ve been sleeping with your wife for years! You’d better be smart and walk away with nothing, or it’ll only get worse for you.”To punctuate his words, David gave Herman a thumbs-down gesture, rubbing salt into the wound.I walked over to Herman, pretending to console him, though I was secretly fanning the flames. I placed a hand on his back and sighed, my voice trembling with fake emotion.“Son, maybe it’s just our bad luck. There’s nothing we can do,” I said with a weary tone.In my previous life, even years after my death, Herman and Ruby were
