During the Thanksgiving holiday, my mother-in-law Mary came to visit us from Ohio. I took her to my husband Liam's new spa in Manhattan, Apropos. We enjoyed a basic facial treatment together, which I had purchased for $9.90 on an e-commerce platform. Right after the treatment, the beautician slapped a high-priced package down in front of us. She glanced at us contemptuously and said: "Do you really think you can enjoy our premium services with a $9.90 coupon?Stop kidding. You two look like you’re here to freeload. A single facial here costs thousands of dollars. This isn’t some free trial for cheapskates like you." I suppressed my anger and said coldly: “We have already paid for the basic treatment. How can you call this taking advantage for free?. Go get your manager.” A flashy woman walked over. Her arms were crossed. She looked down her nose at us. “I’m the Boss lady of this place.You and this old hag are just trying to get something for free, aren’t you? Let me be clear. You're buying this five-thousand-dollar hydration treatment today. Or you're not walking out that door.” A five-thousand-dollar hydration treatment? So this was it. This was why Liam suddenly got into the beauty industry. He didn't open a spa. He opened a scam shop to bankroll his mistress. I was about to call Liam, but she beat me to it, dialing a number. “Darling, you need to get down to the spa, right now. I've got a couple of hicks from the sticks making a scene, trying to get free services!”

The moment he saw my mother, Liam's face went white as a sheet.His mouth hung open but no sound came out. He looked like he’d seen a ghost."Mom..." His voice trembled. "What... what are you doing here?"My mother glided forward, her eyes scanning the desecrated memorial."I came back from Paris," she said, her voice calm and commanding. "To attend your mother's funeral."Your mother.The words struck Liam like a bolt of lightning. He started to sway.He looked around at the relatives, and a horrible truth finally dawned on him.These people... they were all his family.Mary's brothers and sisters. Mary's nieces and nephews.They were all Vances. Not Morrisons."No... impossible..." He stumbled toward the paint-splattered portrait on the floor.He dropped to his knees and frantically tried to wipe away the red paint with his hands."This isn't my mom... It can't be my mom..."His fingers bled as he scraped at the paint, but he didn't stop.Chloe stood nearby, disgusted."Darling, don'

After sending the message, I blocked Chloe.Less than ten minutes later, my phone started ringing off the hook.The caller ID: Liam.I answered."Ava!" Liam's furious voice yelled through the phone. "What did you say to Chloe? She's a hysterical mess, saying you cursed her and she'll never get my mom's approval! How can you be so vicious?"Vicious?I almost laughed out loud."Liam, do you know what vicious is?" my voice was calm. "Vicious is watching an old woman die and doing nothing.""That's bullshit!" Liam roared. "That old hag was your mother, not mine!""And I have some good news for you. Chloe's pregnant!"Pregnant?That was a surprise."My mom would never turn her back on her only grandchild," Liam said, his voice triumphant. "As soon as I take Chloe to meet her and get her blessing, we're getting a divorce! And you'll walk away with nothing! Not a single penny!"Listening to his excitement, I just found it pathetic.So pathetic."Well then, I wish the three of you a happy fami
My Perfect Husband’s Perfect Lie Chapter 9
The funeral home staff started preparing to move Mary’s body.Liam never looked at her again.It was as if she wasn’t a person, just a pile of trash.Captain Miller was still hesitant."Mr. Vance, are you sure about this? What if family comes looking for her later...""They won't," Liam waved his hand, annoyed. "She's a nobody. No family. If she's dead, she's dead."Captain Miller looked at me. "And you, ma'am? Do you have any objection?"All eyes turned to me.I looked at Mary's peaceful face.She would never open her eyes again, never say my name, never worry about my marriage to Liam.If her own son didn't care, why should I?"Whatever," I said, my voice empty. "He's in charge."Captain Miller let out a breath of relief."Then we'll do as Mr. Vance says."Two attendants came over and placed Mary's body in a black bag.The sound of the zipper was deafening in the quiet hall.They put the bag on a gurney and wheeled it toward the door.Just like that, Mary was gone.No funeral, no mem

I had made it perfectly clear.I thought Liam would be shocked. Devastated. That he would rush over to Mary’s body and weep.But he just glanced at her on the floor.His tone was cold.“Your mom came here to make trouble. It's not our fault she died. You’ll need to sign a liability waiver. Just say your mother came here, had a sudden medical issue, and passed away. It has nothing to do with Chloe.”“Chloe is young. She has her whole life ahead of her. I won’t let a useless old woman who's already dead ruin her life.”Liam's tone was so casual.His face was a mask of indifference.And it was all because he thought the dead woman was my mother.How ironic.I never imagined my own husband could be so heartless.I shook my head in disappointment.“Liam, I’m not the one who should sign that. You should be the one to sign it.”Liam frowned, his patience wearing thin.“It’s your mom who died, what’s my signature got to do with anything? Ava, stop making a scene and leave Chloe alone!”I looke

I had explained how serious it was. I thought Chloe would see reason.But she didn’t care at all. She just mocked me.“Liam’s mother?” She drew the words out slowly. “In cheap clothes from Walmart?”She kicked Mary’s simple black shoes with the tip of her rhinestone-studded heel.“I’ve seen Liam’s c

“Chloe.”My heart sank at the name.Not long ago, a package addressed to "Chloe" had arrived at our house. Inside was a limited-edition set from Victoria’s Secret.I asked Liam about it. He didn’t even glance at it. He just tossed the package in the trash, his face perfectly calm.“It’s either a mis

My words made Chloe’s face darken. She gritted her teeth.“I get it now. You’re one of those cheap sluts, aren’t you? Making a scene just to seduce my man?”She pulled her phone out of her Hermès bag and expertly opened Instagram.“Everyone, look what I’m dealing with at my store today.” She aimed t

There seemed to be a promise on the other end of the line, and Chloe grew even more confident.After hanging up, she pointed at me and my mother-in-law and shouted angrily.“You two pieces of low-life trash,you actually dare to come here and enjoy the service for free.” Her voice was sharp as a nee
