Digging for Revenge

"Fine, you've got the jacket. Now, give me the hot chocolate. Belle will feel better if she drinks some," I said.I reached out angrily to grab it, but Randall used his elbow to block me and shoved me away.When he told me he wanted to bring us ice fishing, I made two bottles of hot chocolate. He didn't like the taste of chocolate, so he left his at home.I never intended to bring Belle, but he insisted it would be a fun family activity and a way to get Belle interested in something new.Now, though, Belle was being ignored, while he was fully focused on taking care of Tessa, who had suddenly appeared.He glanced at Belle with a pained look. Just as he was going to check on her, Tessa sneezed loudly twice, and he immediately handed the bottle of hot chocolate to her."Elsie, you have Belle practice dancing every day. She's strong and healthy. She'll be fine. Tessa's weak. She needs this more."I was shivering in my thin sweater, but the chill from his words cut deeper than the c

Tessa asked, "Randall, do you think Tessa will be mad at me?""She can't be. Since she got pregnant, she hasn't worked a single day! All she does is cook and look after Belle. Now, she won't even cook, and she can't even teach Belle properly. Did you hear what Belle just said? She called you a tramp! You can put up with it, but I can't!""Maybe we should just let them in. It's not a big deal if we're a little hungry. It's still snowing outside. What if something happens? You'll regret it," Tessa said softly.Noticing Randal's hesitation, Tessa immediately grew upset and was ready to stand up and leave. He quickly tried to calm her down."I won't regret it! All you want is a bowl of potato stew. What's so hard about that? She's getting more and more difficult! Are you still cold? Let me warm your feet.""I'll do what I promised, but you need to keep your promise too." Tessa playfully kissed his cheek.Through the glass window, I could see their figures entwined.Randall bent down

Tessa said, "Maybe Elsie already found a safe place. It's been so long since I've seen you. Don't you want to..."I wasn't sure how they started it, but the sounds coming from outside grew more lewd with every passing second.I quickly covered Belle's ears, though I knew she couldn't hear them."Aren't you wondering if someone's inside? Let's test it, Randall. Who looks better, me or your wife?" Tessa asked.I swallowed my disgust and stayed silent.The distress messages had finally been sent, and I breathed a sigh of relief.I adjusted my phone to aim the camera at the two figures outside. It was so cold out there, but they didn't mind much.Since they couldn't undress and express themselves through actions, their words became boundless and unrestrained."What if your wife really is inside the van? Ouch! Why are you so excited? Be gentle! Not blaming me for interrupting your family time anymore?"After a while, Randall bit her neck and casually said, "She's not as wild as you

After moving Belle to a new ward, I went to pay the medical bills, only to find that the family card had been suspended.Randall was unhappy about Belle's transfer."Belle is already in this condition. We can just take care of her. There's no need to spend such a big sum! If you're really upset, we can have another child, a son. When we get old, they can take care of each other."You don't work, so you don't understand how hard it is to make money. I'm in a crucial phase for my promotion right now. Can we not complicate things, please?"I threw the divorce papers and the receipt for suing them for intentional harm at him.He flipped through them in shock. "Are you serious? I won't agree to the divorce! Do you think you can leave me with a sick Belle? How are you going to live?"He suddenly stood up and gripped my shoulder in disbelief. "Trust me. Everything I did was for the good of our family.""Save your concern."Because soon, it would be him and Tessa who couldn't live.I

"No way! She just forgave me today! I had everything planned. Once I secure this position, I'll take them to Ocrium for better doctors for Belle, and we'll have two more children! I love her so much. I'm always thinking about them. How could she lie to me?"Was it you? Did you go talk to her?" Randall's eyes burned with anger as he confronted Tessa.Tessa was also stunned. She never imagined the man she thought would marry her after his promotion would have been deceiving and using her all along."Do you have no conscience, Randall? I used my body to build your ladder to success, bringing you from a penniless rookie to a regional manager. And this is how you repay me? You promised me you'd divorce her and marry me after this job!"The others had resigned themselves. They crouched in the corner with their heads in their hands, ready to face the judgment. Little did they expect that before starting their dark and bleak prison life, they'd get to witness a bit of drama."Divorce? It'
