LOGINAt a get-together with friends, my best friend suggested we play 'Never Have I Ever'. We would take turns naming things we had never done, folding down one finger for each one. The last person with fingers left up would win. When someone brought up lying to a romantic partner, everyone folded a finger in unspoken agreement. Everyone except my husband, Joseph Harris. He kept his fingers raised and looked straight at me. "The marriage certificate we got five years ago was fake. "You've been trying to get pregnant for three years without success because I had a vasectomy long ago. "Cheryl and I have been together for five years. We even have a child together. He’s three years old now." The room fell deathly silent. I stood frozen, staring at my hand. I had folded every single finger. I had lost the game, and I had lost in life too. Only when someone slid a glass of liquor in front of me and said solemnly, "Lilian, a bet is a bet," did I finally snap out of it. "This is your punishment. When Mr. Harris and Cheryl get married, you aren't allowed to cause a scene."

If I hadn’t helped you, I wouldn’t be going to prison!"Cheryl grabbed Noelle by the hair. "Didn't you benefit from helping me?"You were the one who wanted to destroy Lilian! You were always saying how much you hated her holier-than-thou act!"She was nothing but a poor nobody saddled with a sick sister, yet she played the savior. Who did she think she was?"I had no interest in watching them tear each other apart. I turned and headed for the exit.However, Hannah rushed over and begged me through her tears."Lilian, I'm begging you! Joseph cannot go to prison!"You loved him so much. Can't you find it in your heart to forgive him?"I calmly shook off her hand."So what if he loved me? Did that give him the right to hurt me without mercy?"He even nearly killed Yvonne!"Without looking back, I walked away.Outside the courthouse, my parents
Joseph stood frozen, as if he had just been struck by lightning.It took him a long time to come back to his senses. Eventually, he let go of Cheryl and walked away.No matter how much she cried, begged, or cursed at him, he refused to acknowledge her again.Noelle was hardly any better off. She had helped Cheryl spread lies about me and publicly branded me the other woman. Now, she had become a target of public outrage herself.One day, while riding the subway, Noelle was recognized by another passenger. Without warning, someone threw a cup of hot coffee all over her.Noelle immediately exploded."Are you insane?"The other person snorted."Oops! My hand slipped. Looks like even my coffee cannot stand a woman who betrays her own best friend!"The other passengers edged away from Noelle."Don't get too close. That woman is toxic.""Anyone who gets near her is bound to have bad luck!"Humiliated and furious, Noelle hurried off the train and called me.When I saw her name on
"It’s all lies! Lilian can’t stand seeing me happy, so she’s trying to destroy me!"I'm Joseph's wife! We even have a child together!"Hannah stood nearby, her face twisted with anger."Lilian was never good enough for my Joseph. She’s an orphan, she’s disabled, and she comes with a sick sister. What makes her think she deserves to marry into our family?"Cheryl gave the Harris family a child. That’s why I accept her."Lilian is nothing but a barren woman who cannot give her husband a child!"As she spoke, Hannah tugged at Joseph's sleeve."Hurry up and explain things to everyone! Tell them Lilian is the other woman!"She was the one who came between us. I only put up with her because she once saved your life!"Someone in the crowd, eager for a juicy scandal, had started a livestream. The camera shook for a moment before Joseph appeared on the screen.He lowered his head, his lips trembling. After a long silence, he suddenly spoke."I'm sorry. I was the one who cheated."Ch
I clenched my teeth, trembling with rage from head to toe.I opened my phone and gathered every piece of evidence I had saved over the years: our chat history, photos, a timeline comparing the dates, and the video of Joseph proposing to me in my hospital room.Once everything was ready, I turned on my camera and looked straight into the lens."Hi, everyone. My name is Lilian Stewart. I'm the woman everyone online has been calling a homewrecker. There are some truths I need to share with you."Within seconds, tens of thousands of people flooded into my livestream.The comments raced across the screen.[Oh my God, the other woman is actually livestreaming! Is she here to get roasted?][Their wedding is about to start, and you are still trying to get attention?][Can all you mistresses just disappear already? Can't you live without a man? Stay away from married men!][The nerve of her! She actually dares to livestream and provoke everyone. Let's flood her stream and take her down
