Wives at War Chapter 6
Here I thought that since I had reached rock bottom, nothing could break me anymore.However, Austin’s horrible response sucked the air right out of me.I slammed the door shut, and Austin withdrew his arms while gasping in pain.The door closed with a loud bang.He believed he could erase the past and start over, but not on my watch.Autumn and I sat on the sofa, neither of us in the right state of mind.I asked, “It took you three years to be with Aaron. Are you happy to give up on him now?”“His indifference has put out any feelings I had for him. What about you? You’ve been with Austin for more than a decade. Heck, you were high school sweethearts. He’s talking about making amends. Are you going to give him another chance?”I shook my head. “I waited over a decade for him to change. It never came, and I don’t want to wait anymore.”It was awful to always be the second choice.I was frail, to begin with. All the fuss wore me out completely.Autumn tucked me into bed. Sinc

The medical staff in the know started spilling the tea in the comments section.[Bella’s husband is Austin Luther, and he’s a skilled obstetrician at our hospital. Bella went into early labor, suffered from amniotic fluid embolism, and had severe bleeding. She pleaded with her husband to operate on her, but he was too busy delivering puppies for his mistress’ pet.][Autumn is Bella’s best friend and sister-in-law. She brought Bella back to life, but her baby was in need of medicine. The child’s uncle was occupied with making good food for the same woman’s pet dog instead of delivering the life-saving drug. The baby ultimately died.]The public was outraged.[I guess the mistress’ pet dog matters more than the poor mother and child to these brothers.][I mean, I love dogs, but I can’t understand Austin and Aaron’s behavior.][The brothers fell in love with the same woman. Their wives are the ones suffering.][Kirsty claims to help strays while abusing them in secret. She’s one to

“I don’t see a point in saving our marriage now. Get in.”While Austin did get into the car, he refused to drive.He looked at me tearfully. “No one is perfect. I made a mistake because I didn’t see Kirsty for who she was. We’ve been together for eleven years. Shouldn’t that count as something? I deserve a shot to make things right. I never meant to hurt you!”“If you didn’t mean to hurt me, why did I have to go through years of gaslighting, suffer massive bleeding from early labor, and lose my child?”Instead of crying, I kept my composure the whole time.However, Austin put his hands over his face, tears spilling between the cracks of his fingers.I was annoyed. “You can cry once our divorce is finalized. Don’t waste my time.”When Austin took time off to go on vacation with Kirsty, I cried bitter tears after a fight with him, and he told me, “I’m on a night shift later. Can you not waste my time? I could be resting by now.”Given Austin’s lack of opposition, the divorce proc

“Kirsty didn’t mean to call me away from your birthday party yesterday. She was a nervous wreck because her Labrador was having puppies. I couldn’t just leave her alone.“And you want a divorce over something so trivial? You even pushed Autumn to divorce my brother. Is this what marriage means to you?“When are you going to grow up and be more like Kirsty, Bella?”I had just barely survived and was transferred out of the ICU when Austin Luther came to my ward, looking grim.The man who once cared for my every need during my period couldn’t even see my fragility now, even when he stood right in front of me. Instead, he chose to berate me.Fighting back tears, I looked up.Still, tears rolled down my cheeks.I was horrified by the package from Kirsty yesterday. The sight of a dead cat pushed me into early labor.Autumn rushed me to the ER immediately.During the frantic car ride, I called Austin in a panic, but my calls went unanswered.I couldn’t be wheeled in for surgery with

Austin stared at my flat tummy with a surprised look, but he quickly furrowed his brows. “I know you’re good friends with Bella, Autumn. But you shouldn’t play along and perform a C-section on her. You're not fit to be a doctor if you’re recommending unnecessary surgery. Where is the baby? I—”A call from Kirsty interrupted Austin. According to her, there was still another puppy in the dog’s belly, waiting to be delivered. Austin was worried sick. “You’ve taken things too far, Bella. We’ll talk about this after I help Kirsty’s dog with the delivery.”He left in a hurry. Furious, Autumn tried to stop him for an answer.Then came her husband, Aaron, stepping in her way. “You're free to ruin your own life, Autumn, but why did you have to pit Bella against Austin? What do you gain from this? We’ve been together for five years, and I’m not sure how much more of this I can take. Do yourself a favor and stop the madness. I’ll pretend you never mentioned divorce, but there won’t be

Austin hissed through clenched teeth, “Do you honestly enjoy being the villain? Kirsty can’t even get a decent night’s sleep because she’s worried about her dog’s labor. And you? You’re so heartless to jinx the child we’ve longed for. Do you have any shame?”I had lost the will to argue with him.“We should just separate, Austin. Autumn is leaving Aaron too. Don’t forget to bring your brother along for the divorce proceedings. If I don’t see you in court, I’ll expose your affair with Kirsty, and we can all be ruined together.”By threatening him with Kirsty, Austin dropped the smack talk and agreed to the divorce.It only showed how little he cared for me.My mind went back to the day I found out I was pregnant. Austin was the first person I wanted to share the news with.Since he didn’t pick up my calls, I asked his friends and went to him.Austin was throwing a birthday party for Kirsty’s dog with a group of friends.The dog was quick to pick up on cues.

When Austin lifted his head again, his face was filled with panic, despair, and pain.“H-How did this happen? I’m sorry, Bella. I thought you were lying out of jealousy and had a C-section ahead of time. I didn’t know our son was dead. I—”His little sorry act only rubbed me the wrong way.If he cared at all about me or our child, he wouldn’t have left us to tend to a pregnant dog.In a hurry to host my son’s funeral service, I had no time to waste. I brushed past him to get away.Autumn had been by my side the whole time. We were stepping into the car.Aaron caught up to us, his face flushed. “I’m sorry, Autumn. I was wrong before. I—”“You’re an idiot!”Without looking at him, Autumn slammed the car door shut.We took a ride to the cemetery. Kirsty and the shaken brothers arrived soon after.I furrowed my brows at their presence.However, today was my son’s burial, and the last thing I wanted was for his final moments to be disrupted.I held my tongue.Kirsty walked up

Kirsty’s animal abuse was exposed in these photos.The carcasses of stray cats and dogs were a ghastly sight.Kirsty smiled widely, appearing to take delight in the gruesome act.There were also photos of Kirsty handing over a pink package to a delivery person and of me opening the package, which revealed the dead strays inside.As the photos scattered on the floor, Aaron caught a glimpse of a few and threw up right there and then.Austin, an obstetrician, was no stranger to bloody images.Still, he skimmed through a few before looking away.I thought they would finally see Kirsty for the person she was.Instead, Austin put away the photos and tore into me.“Bella, what’s the point of setting Kirsty up by editing a few photos? Kirsty is a kind soul. She can’t stand to see animals hurt. Her 5 million followers know about her charity work with animal rescue. She couldn’t possibly harm these poor creatures.“Whose idea was it to manipulate the pictures? Yours or Autumn’s? Don’t
