After my husband cheats, my relatives advise me to be tolerant and forgiving. Why? Because my husband's mistress is pregnant, and I'm infertile. Even his parents hurry to our house in the middle of the night to say, "Don't worry—we won't let that woman step foot in this house. Once she gives birth, the child will be yours." Is that so? I sneer as I look at a medical report. Perhaps the child will have something to do with me, but it definitely won't have anything to do with my husband.

Standing Up for My Husband's Mistress Chapter 12
Audrey argued agitatedly, "We never got our marriage license, and I never agreed to the union in the first place! I wasn't even of legal age!"The young man with the limp growled, "I took you back to my place and that makes you my wife! You are bound to me forever!"Audrey's voice cracked. "I didn't agree to it. I fought but no one came to my rescue. You didn't marry me; you raped me!"The man burst out laughing. "How is sleeping with my wife a form of rape? You deserve to get beaten up for refusing me! All the young ladies back home were married off in the same way, so why couldn't you have just shut up and taken it?"Audrey's father's face turned red with anger as he snapped, "How could you behave so immorally?"Meanwhile, the livestream equipment hadn't been turned off during this heated exchange. At once, comments flooded the channel."Hold up, isn't this a play or something? This has to be scripted, right?" a viewer wrote."It's got to be staged!""Shouldn't we call the co

Three days after Audrey had delivered her baby, my assistant told me the four men had set up camp outside the company. The janitors had shooed them away, but they returned with a whole bunch of stuff and camped for another day.At this point, Audrey could get out of bed on her own.On the fourth day, Audrey asked, "Where are they now, Harley?"I stared at the suture across her belly and said hesitantly, "Well…"Her brows lifted. "I've been avoiding them for a while now, Harley. It's time to face them." It was only when she told me the full story that I understood.Back in her hometown, her people had a culture where single men could snatch women off the streets and force them into marriage. The man only had to show up at the woman's home, offer her family money in exchange for their blessings, and the marriage would become official.The bride didn't have a say in the union, and no one bothered to ask what she made of the abrupt arrangements, either. Even if the bride cried and ki

Audrey also promised me that she would wait a month postpartum for her body to recover before preparing for her GED. Since she had run away from home, I had the honor of going into the delivery room with her.Dad had made his stance on this clear and simple. "What are the chances that this young lady's path has crossed with ours? You can either become the godmother of her child, or I'll become her godfather."Needless to say, I chose the former. And because of that, I was left checking off the list of things that Audrey would need when she went into labor.Despite the rest Audrey had gotten after all she had been through, she had a tough pregnancy. When the doctor came with a notice of critical condition and asked for my signature, my hand shook so badly that I could barely hold the pen.Just as I was about to sign off on the notice, a bunch of voices sounded from behind me. "Save the child!""Save the child at all costs!"The doctor and I were both confused, but the overlapping

Before the court session, Lillian and Mike showed up at the courthouse and accosted Audrey. They hadn't been able to see her before this, but their opportunity came when she insisted on coming to court with me."You entered into a mature and consensual relationship with Jerome! How much did Harley pay you to turn on him like this?"I tried to shield Audrey, but she nudged me aside. Despite the trepidation on her face, she bit out icily, "Harley did not pay me to do this. She helped me. And if you ask me, Jerome was a scumbag who deserves everything he's got coming for him!""You little—" When Lilian and Mike realized they wouldn't get anywhere by playing tough, they softened up. "Young lady, you are carrying Jerome's child. Do you want the baby to have a criminal for a father?""Hold up," I interjected, eyeing the pair oddly. "Haven't you seen Jerome after he was taken in by the cops? Or did he fail to mention this important tidbit? Audrey isn't carrying his child."Lillian and Mi

Audrey blanched at the complete lack of evidence in Jerome's phone. Panic had her on the verge of tears as she habitually clutched the hem of my shirt. "What do we do now, Harley? The videos he took of me aren't on his phone!"Where could he have saved them? What do I do?"I gave her a reassuring look. "Calm down." I opened the hidden window to reveal the clone software running in the system. As I worked on disabling the software, I gave Audrey a brief explanation of how Jerome operated.Jerome was a cautious man. He had two phones—one for his affairs and the other for his daily business."I discovered this when I caught him texting his third mistress in the middle of the night. My dad had just fallen ill at the time, and I couldn't sleep a wink that night, not that I'd let Jerome know. He still has no idea of this."When Audrey first mentioned the videos, I immediately thought of Jerome's second phone.But he was so secretive that he hid the phone well. I didn't want to risk gra

Jerome, having mastered the act of the obedient son-in-law, peeled an apple with expert ease as he broke the news to my dad.My dad gripped my hand in shock as he demanded, "That's great! When's the adoption?"I stiffened and said pointedly, "Dad, it'd be better for Jerome and I to have a child of our own, don't you think?"Dad looked somewhat disappointed, but he got over it within seconds. "Adopted or not, he'll be my grandchild all the same."I squeezed a tight smile. Jerome wrapped an arm around my shoulders as he turned to address Dad, "We're on the same page, Ben, which is why the kid will be a Clark instead of a Maslow."I stared at Jerome with wide eyes, but his pleasant and indulgent façade did not so much as falter. He said warmly, "I've given it some thought, Harley. The kid will be ours, and it'd make sense for him to have your last name."Is that so? The corner of my lips twitched wryly as I glanced at Dad. "Jerome and I will step out for a bit, Dad."I dragged Jero
