Chapter 7

Author: Honeyed Habit
Thomas froze. Tears clung to his lashes as he struggled to get the words out. "You..."

But Renee didn't wait. She approved every single termination in one go. When the HR staff member got the news, the woman actually came to confirm the decision in person.

"Seriously?" She couldn't hide her delight and rushed off to process the paperwork.

But Thomas' relatives weren't going quietly. They stormed in one after another, demanding an explanation. "On what grounds? Our son is involved with your bo

  • My Wife's New Year Confession of Cheating   Chapter 9

    I wasn't interested in Renee's declaration. I filed for divorce anyway.Her affair with Thomas had been so public that there was a trail a mile wide. Every piece of evidence was already out in the open, and I didn't have to dig for any of it.Piper didn't want to let go. "Dad, stepdads are always mean to kids. Are you really giving up on me?"I smiled bitterly and sent her on her way. "Between the two of us, you were the one who gave up first."During the waiting period, Renee didn't come looking for me. Not because she didn't want to, but because she had her hands full. Thomas had dropped the act entirely and was hounding her for answers."You're the one who got us used to this lifestyle. You told my family to quit their jobs and work for you, yet they're now all unemployed. You can't just throw us away like that."Renee thought that she'd already been more than generous. "Your family caused disaster after disaster and cost me a fortune. You should be grateful I'm not coming aft

    Renee refused to believe it. "You're just testing me. I'll prove myself to you."I couldn't be bothered to respond. The moment I was well enough, I hired a lawyer to finalize the divorce.Then Renee sent Piper to me. It had only been a few days, but she looked worn out. She ran to me crying."Dad! Dad!"Before all this, I would have caved in a heartbeat. I never would have let her suffer like that.But now, I just stood there. I couldn't understand how she'd been capable of not feeling a shred of sympathy for me. The reward points she could never bring herself to redeem, she'd handed every last one to Thomas without a second thought.Piper followed me around, sobbing apologies. "I'm sorry, Dad. I don't want Mr. Thomas anymore. He said if I stayed with him, I could eat whatever I wanted and do whatever I wanted."I stood there, stunned. So that was the reason.Piper had grown up a lot in a short time. She was starting to see it on her own. "But I know Mr. Thomas doesn't actually

    Thomas froze. Tears clung to his lashes as he struggled to get the words out. "You..."But Renee didn't wait. She approved every single termination in one go. When the HR staff member got the news, the woman actually came to confirm the decision in person."Seriously?" She couldn't hide her delight and rushed off to process the paperwork.But Thomas' relatives weren't going quietly. They stormed in one after another, demanding an explanation. "On what grounds? Our son is involved with your boss. Who do you think you are, coming to us with this?"Thomas, still in his office, finally realized that Renee wasn't bluffing. He backed down, saying, "Renee, I didn't mean it like that. I'll make them shape up."He thought he was making a huge concession, but Renee wasn't having it. She'd made up her mind. The whole family had to go.She was sick of it. Everyone in the company had been suffering in silence, fully aware they were all nepotism hires. Now that she had a reason and the words w

  • My Wife's New Year Confession of Cheating   Chapter 6

    Neither Renee nor Piper felt right without William there. Piper spoke up in that sweet little voice of hers."Mom, maybe don't divorce Dad. Mr. Thomas can just be on the side."Renee's influence had already warped the way Piper saw things, but her words still landed exactly where Renee intended. She'd never actually wanted a divorce. She wanted both.Everyone around her was leaving their spouses, tossing them aside for someone new. She hadn't gone that far. But William wouldn't accept the arrangement and insisted on making it a whole thing.Fine. She would let him throw his tantrum. Renee told herself that and left it there.Because right now, she was certain that she didn't want a divorce. So, she tore up the agreement.She hadn't had a drink in a while. But she still couldn't stop herself from lighting a cigarette. Thomas had asked her to quit, and she'd been trying for his sake.William had nagged her about it plenty of times, too, but she never listened. She always promised

  • My Wife's New Year Confession of Cheating   Chapter 5

    [Third-Person POV]Renee didn't come home until the holidays were over, and it was time for work and school to start again. She pushed through the front door and called out for William without thinking."Get me a glass of water. I'm dying. I was screaming along with them all night. God, I'm getting old. I can't keep up with those two anymore."But no matter how many times she called, the house stayed silent, empty in a way it hadn't been before. An ominous feeling flickered through her. She suddenly remembered William's call from five days ago and shot to her feet.Renee searched the entire villa, top to bottom, but there was still no sign of him. She let out a breath of relief, but it quickly curdled into anger."Always making a production out of everything. I knew it was all an act."She grabbed her phone and called him several times in a row, but there was still no answer. That only made her angrier, and she tossed the phone aside. "Fine. Don't come back then."She picked i

  • My Wife's New Year Confession of Cheating   Chapter 4

    That evening, Renee came home furious, dragging Piper behind her. The girl's eyes were swollen red from crying.Renee demanded, "Don't you think you owe me an explanation?"My hands froze over the things I was packing. I couldn't think of what there was to explain. She then grabbed my arm and hauled me into the study."Piper was crying at school because of you. Even Thomas felt terrible. I knew it. I knew the whole gracious divorce act was fake. You went behind my back and made a scene at the school, airing everything out on purpose."Listening to her pile accusations on me, all I felt was cold. Years of love, and this was the version of me she had settled on.Maybe she'd never cared enough to see me any differently. So what was the point of defending myself?"Believe whatever you want. It's not like you care about people knowing that you cheated."Renee was livid.Then, Megan got fired. Renee could dispose of my entire family as easily as brushing dirt off her sleeve. Mom we

    Because of everything that happened, we didn't make it to Mom's for the holiday. She called me to ask why, and the moment she heard I was getting a divorce, she tore into me."Are you stupid? At your age? You think you're still young and good-looking? Whatever you did wrong, go apologize and fix it

  • My Wife's New Year Confession of Cheating   Chapter 1

    Renee Fielding didn't seem to expect that kind of reaction from me. It took her a while before she spoke."We don't have to divorce if you don't want to. I only told you all this so you wouldn't go interfering with us later and make a scene. He'd be mortified. He's young, and he's sensitive about t

    That night, Renee came to find me. "What was that tantrum about? You scared Piper."A warm embrace enveloped me as her hands roamed freely. The familiar scent of her made me melt for a second, making me want to lean in the way I always had.But reality hit just as fast. The thought of how those sa
