LOGINMy wife is pregnant, and I'm a little worried. Before bed, I scroll through a parenting forum and come across an anonymous post. "My husband won't let me have my male best friend's baby. Is this a serious violation of my reproductive rights?" The poster pours her heart out, each line of the post dripping with self-pity. "My doctor said my progesterone levels are low, my her HCG levels aren't doubling as expected, and the gestational sac is implanted close to the scar tissue from my last surgery. If the pregnancy continues, it could cause massive bleeding and put my life at risk. "That's why my husband refuses to let me continue the pregnancy. But he doesn't understand. This baby is the only reminder my best friend left me. How can I force my husband to willingly raise another man's child?" The comments section is buzzing. Then, one highly upvoted reply makes my blood run cold. "Girl, you can't fight a man like that head-on. You have to destroy his confidence at the root. You should slip something into his drinks that reduces sperm activity. Then, trick him into getting a fertility test. When he sees a diagnosis saying he has a low sperm count, he'll be devastated. "After that, when you tell him that you're determined to give him a child no matter what, he'll be so grateful that he'll worship both you and that baby for the rest of his life!" Staring at the vicious scheme on the screen, I break out in a cold sweat. Just then, my wife walks into the bedroom carrying a warm glass of milk. "Honey, you've been so stressed taking care of me lately. You're even starting to get gray hairs. Here, have a glass of milk."
View MoreOn the day of Jasper's trial, I went to the courthouse as a member of the public.The judge read out the verdict—Jasper was convicted of embezzlement and fraud. The combined sentences amounted to seven years in prison.The moment Jasper heard the sentence, his legs gave out and he collapsed to the floor.I stood up and walked out of the courtroom. The sunlight was glaring, but I felt freer than ever before.As I walked out of the courthouse, I unexpectedly saw Lauren. Across the street, she was pushing Christina in a wheelchair. When she saw me, she pushed the wheelchair over."Tyson…"I stopped. "What?"Lauren's eyes were red, tears rolling down her cheeks as she sobbed, "Tyson, I heard Jasper was sentenced to seven years. He deserved it. But I… I really can't go on anymore."She pointed at Christina in the wheelchair and continued, "My mom is partially paralyzed. Her medication costs several thousand dollars every month. I'm not in good health either, and I can't find a decen
Christina stormed over and pointed a finger in my face, cursing at me loudly, "Tyson Carter, you heartless bastard! You deliberately set Lauren up. Not only did you tricked her into taking the house, but caused her to lose her uterus. I'm taking you to court for fraud. I'll make sure you go to prison."I pulled out my phone and played a recording. It was a recording of Jasper signing the forms outside the emergency room."I'm just a friend. The hospital won't accept my signature! They need her legal husband. Hurry up!""Him! He's Lauren's husband. Let him sign."When the recording ended, I looked at Christina and said, "Go ahead and sue me. Bring this recording with you. Let's see whether the court finds me guilty of fraud or finds them guilty of having an affair and transferring joint assets."Christina was speechless. Meanwhile, Lauren sank to the ground in despair."Tyson… You're cruel…" she murmured.I looked down at her. "Compared to you drugging me, I think I've been merci
Two weeks later, Lauren was discharged from the hospital. She was discharged because she could no longer afford the medical expensesSupported by Christina, she returned to the house that had once been our home.The locks had been changed. A court notice and foreclosure order were stuck on the door. When Christina saw them, she collapsed to the ground."Oh, God! We can't go on like this!"The bank had moved even faster than I'd expected. I'd stopped making the interest payment after the first month, and the bank immediately applied for pre-litigation asset preservation and seized the property.Lauren couldn't even get through the front door. All of her personal belongings were trapped inside. She took out her phone and called Jasper."Sorry. The number you have dialed has been disconnected."Jasper had run. Over the past two weeks, he hadn't come to see Lauren even once, and he had blocked her number.Lauren stood in the hallway as cold wind blew in through the stairwell window
Despite her weakened condition, Lauren hadn't completely lost her senses."Sell the house? That house is supposed to be our future home. Besides, the process to sell a house doesn't happen overnight. How are we supposed to pay the hospital bills in time?"Jasper frowned, his tone turning harsh. "Well, what do you suggest we do? The hospital has already sent payment reminders three times. I made an enemy of Tyson for you, and now, you won't even help me with this?"Christina chimed in, "Lauren, Jasper is right. Put the house on the market and find a cash buyer. You can afford to sell it at a discounted price. Besides, Tyson is carrying 80 million dollars in debt. That house is completely yours now. "Sell the house and use the money to start over with Jasper. You can buy a smaller place and use the remaining to start a business. Isn't that better than being tied to that bankrupt loser?"Lauren bit her lower lip. In the end, she gave in. "Fine. Mom, find a realtor and tell them we n
