Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Husband’s Childhood Sweetheart Moved In: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

I just returned home from a business trip. As soon as I opened the door, I was surprised to see my husband, Harlan Flores, cooking in the kitchen.Before I could say anything, my eyes were drawn to a woman in a striking red dress on the couch. Noticing the commotion at the entrance, the woman shifted her gaze from Harlan in the kitchen to me.The moment she saw me, she stood up, walked over, and extended her hand, smiling. "Hi, Waverly. I'm Tamsin Jones, a childhood friend of Harlan's."Hearing her introduction, I nodded knowingly before shaking her outstretched hand."Hello. Please have a seat."As I walked to the couch and sat down, something about her seemed familiar, prompting me to take a second look. In an instant, I remembered where I had seen her—on my wedding day with Harlan.She had sat in the audience back then. Her face was as pale as snow, and she had tears in her eyes as she looked at Harlan with deep sorrow.Before I could exchange pleasantries with her, Harlan em

After I explained everything that had happened, Cordelia's expression shifted. The comforting smile on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by a furrowed brow and a subtle hint of worry.I understood, of course. After all, what mother wouldn't side with her own son?It was only natural that she wouldn't want to intervene. Still, I had so much bottled up inside that I needed to vent to someone.She opened her mouth as if to speak but stopped herself and shook her head instead. Just as I was about to ask for her opinion, the steaming spicy dish was brought to the table.We sat at the dining table in silence, and an unspoken tension hung in the air. The meal was unpleasant, leaving me questioning if I had said something I shouldn't have.Finally, just as the meal was coming to an end, Cordelia broke the silence. She began to say, "Henrietta being dismissed was indeed wrong of Harlan, but…"Waverly, Tamsin and Harlan grew up together. Her parents entrusted her to our family befor

My questions were soon answered during a tense meeting where Tamsin sat in Harlan's usual chair.When the assistant moved to bring in an extra chair, Harlan stopped them. "No need. This won't take long."Tamsin gave an embarrassed smile before settling into Harlan's seat.Harlan threw the documents he was holding onto the table with a loud thud, his face full of anger. "Yesterday, the project proposal you submitted contained some very basic errors."Although these mistakes didn't cause any losses to the company, Tamsin will be taking over this project entirely from now on."Someone in the group voiced their dissatisfaction. "But this project has always been handled by Waverly…"Harlan sneered as he turned his gaze toward me. "Waverly Sinclair, did you notice the flaws in the proposal? If you did, why didn't you fix them?"My silence must have seemed like a silent concession to him. In the end, the project I had worked on for two months was handed over to someone else.Just as t

To me, Harlan now seemed more like a madman who had lost all sense of reason.After a few seconds of silence, I let out a dry laugh, suddenly losing any desire to argue with him. "She's dying. What does that have to do with me? Will her illness magically get better if I go to the hospital?"Am I the one who gave her cancer? Plus, cancer is painful, isn't it? Maybe she should just stop treatment altogether."Without giving him a chance to respond, I hung up, cutting off his hysteria completely. I had no intention of indulging Harlan's madness further. My priority now was putting an end to this absurd project.When I arrived at the office, the project team members were heading toward the HR department with resignation letters in hand.When they saw me, they looked as if they had spotted a lifeline. They started pouring out their grievances about everything Tamsin had done in the past few days.She had docked their pay without reason, constantly nitpicked their work, targeted them u

It wasn't until Harlan's figure disappeared from her view that Tamsin finally glanced at me. Meanwhile, I took a seat on the couch, casually picked up a piece of fruit, and started eating without sparing her a second look.After a while, she suddenly spoke. "Waverly, could you pour me a glass of water?"I knew it had to be a trap, but I was willing to walk into it. After all, my purpose in coming to the hospital with Harlan that day was simple.That was to divorce him.So, I smiled and said, "Of course."Ignoring the lightweight plastic cups next to the water dispenser, I opted for a heavy glass tumbler instead. She smiled as she thanked me and accepted the water, though she didn't drink it.As the sound of footsteps echoed closer down the hallway, she hesitated briefly before tossing the water onto her own face.Her piercing screams instantly filled the room. The glass slipped from her hand, shattering on the floor as shards scattered everywhere.Tamsin writhed on the bed. Her
