I accidentally stumbled upon numerous explicit videos on my husband's computer while tidying up his desk. The videos showed him in bed with my unmarried best friend. The relationship between my husband and me had been platonic ever since I gave birth 40 years ago. His reason was that he was no longer capable of physical intimacy. Now, it felt like my entire life had been a sham, despite all my efforts for my family.
View MoreThanks to my age and hard-earned achievements, I gained even more fans from the public who sympathized with me.They were all spewing insults at Gordon and Karen.I thought that would be the end of the situation, but a technician unwound Gordon's folder when he sent his damaged computer in for repair.Coincidentally, the technician was a fan of mine and uploaded those video recordings online, stirring up another wave of the Gordon and Karen situation.This caught the attention of several organizations, which subsequently revoked all of Gordon's past achievements and recognitions.-It wasn't long before Henry appeared at my doorstep again, but this time, Gordon was with him.They came bearing a lot of gifts, and Gordon even bought me some jewelry."I'm sorry for all the hurtful things I've done to you in the past, Sheila. I now realize just how important you are to me," Gordon said.Gordon was no longer the dashingly handsome man he used to be, thanks to all the mental sufferi
Lily gave Henry a slap to the back of his head and said, "Do you see how hurtful your words were? She's the woman who took care of you your entire life, yet you said such harsh things to her. Apologize now.""I'm sorry, Mom. I honestly regret the way I treated you in the past," Henry said."You regret it, huh? You're only feeling sorry now because you need a nanny and Karen wasn't the obedient nanny you needed. That's not regret—it's just self-interest."Do you remember when you promised you'd stay with me forever and not let me get hurt? Think back to what you did to me. You're just as heartless and selfish as your father, and I'll never forgive either of you."Go find yourself a nanny if you need help taking care of your child. I'm not going to do it."I'm going to live life for myself. I've already built my own career. I'm no longer the same woman you could order around in the past, do you hear me?"Come at me one more time, and I'll report you to the police for harassment," I
I began living my own life after that, and my Instagram account grew increasingly popular as the days passed.I even went live on some days. Many viewers would ask me questions and compliment my looks, often remarking that I must have been a great beauty in my younger years.I had always had a soft spot for continental things, and I was actually quite good in my academics, particularly in languages.However, we had been too poor at the time, and my father had decided not to let me further my studies, believing I would not need to graduate.Sometimes, I still thought back and wondered if I might have ended up with a husband who truly loved me had I completed my studies.But the past was in the past, and there was no point in dwelling on it.Aside from sharing my life on the farm, I also wrote poems and posted them online, not expecting anyone to particularly like them.To my surprise, I gained 1,000,000 followers in less than two months because of that!What's more, I received a
I woke up the next day, ready to leave the hotel, only to find Gordon sitting in front of my door. He quickly stood up, flustered and embarrassed."If you're not here to discuss our divorce, I want you out of my sight!" I snapped."Sheila... is there really no way back?" he asked, his voice soft."Spare me the theatrics, Gordon. Shouldn't you be celebrating, spending the rest of your life with that bitch now that we're getting divorced?" I asked."Just promise you won't tell the children or the public about this," he pleaded.I looked at him, suddenly questioning what had made me fall for him in the first place."Enough!" I said, my patience gone. "Sign the divorce papers right now, or I'll destroy your reputation by telling everyone at your university about your affair."He finally agreed, surrendering all his assets in exchange for my silence. I gave him a month to move out of my house.The next time we met was at the courthouse.We parted ways after signing the papers, and
I bought myself a slice of cake after planting the seeds, celebrating the birth of my new life.I no longer wanted to live for their sake, or anyone else's, for that matter.Instead, I was determined to live for myself, leaving behind my former identity as a wife and mother.I relaxed on the couch after finishing my cake.A scene of a vast, beautiful sea played on the television, and it made me realize that I had never traveled before.Immediately, I browsed several reviews and chose Navigio Coast to experience the sea there.After purchasing my train ticket and packing my things, I left for the tourist spot without delay.-Standing by the sea, I stretched my arms wide and savored the freedom I had never known.At that moment, I truly understood what it meant to live—and that I was living for myself.The other tourist spots I visited after that were marvelous, and the food I tasted along the way was unforgettable.I even created an Instagram account to share my experiences,
Everyone was in utter shock, having never heard me yell at Henry before. In fact, I had never even raised my voice until that day.In response, Henry stomped his foot and walked out, while Lily grabbed Carl and fled the house, shocked by my abnormal behavior.Gordon scowled. "Are you happy now?"His face instantly turned cold when I once again refused to answer him."That's enough from you, Sheila. You'd better stop acting up," he said impatiently."Are you deaf, or are you dumb? I said I want a divorce, and that's fucking final!” I exploded.Gordon was a highly educated professor who never uttered a single curse word, no matter how angry he got.However, I was different.I wanted to hurl every curse word I could think of at that very moment. In fact, I wanted to rip him to shreds if I could!Seemingly shocked, Gordon still managed to maintain his cool as he said, "I'm not sure what's gotten into you today, but I'm going to let this behavior slide. I'll pretend I didn't hear a
Henry first blamed me for hanging up on him, while Carl felt dejected when he discovered that I hadn't made him any rainbow ricotta gnocchi."Grandma, where's my rainbow ricotta gnocchi? I want my rainbow ricotta gnocchi!" Carl complained. "I didn't make any," I responded.Instantly, Carl began to cry, and Lily held him in her arms to soothe him.In disbelief, Henry stood before me, scowling. "Have you gone mad, Mom? You hung up on me and haven't made any gnocchi for Carl… What have you been doing at home all day today?"His tone was not that of someone speaking to his mother but rather that of someone addressing a nanny.Calmly, I looked at him and asked, "You aren't afraid of heights, are you?"A wave of shock swept across his face as he looked away."You'd tell me you're afraid of heights because you didn't want to trim the trees for me, yet you'd do the same for her?" I questioned."Her?" Henry hurriedly interrupted. "Aunt Karen's a weak lady, so it's only natural for me
I opened my Twitter account and saw a picture Gordon had recently posted.In the picture, he still appeared stoic and dashingly handsome, despite his elderly years.Gordon was an esteemed literature professor, while Karen was a literary critic. They often discussed various works of literature together.In the photo, Gordon was all smiles, a rare sight given his usual seriousness.Meanwhile, Henry, who had never done any house chores, was trimming the leaves of a tall tree in Karen's yard, sweating profusely. It was something he would never have done for me, as he always claimed to be afraid of heights.I felt another dagger stab into my heart, and the pain in my back was so intense that I collapsed onto the floor, sobbing.I couldn't help but reflect on how laughable my life had been all those years.I would wake up at 5:00 a.m. every morning to prepare breakfast for my family.After breakfast, I would rush to clean the dishes before taking Carl to school, as both Henry and Lil
I, Sheila Rossi, accidentally stumbled upon numerous explicit videos on my husband Gordon Schmidt's computer while tidying up his desk.The videos showed him in bed with Karen Jackson, my unmarried best friend.The relationship between my husband and me had been platonic ever since I gave birth 40 years ago. His reason was that he was no longer capable of physical intimacy.Now, it felt like my entire life had been a sham, despite all my efforts for my family.I stared at the screen in disbelief, my hand trembling as it hovered over the mouse.The videos were labeled with detailed dates. In one of them, I watched as he pushed himself on top of her, kissing her neck affectionately while caressing her.I continued scrolling until I reached the earliest video.Although it was blurry, there was no mistaking them—they were much younger at the time. A wedding photo sat next to the bed, yet there he was, tearing another woman's clothes apart and holding her tightly.Overcome with angu
