Lahat ng Kabanata ng Daily Check‑in From My Cheating Husband: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

The moment Gavin left, I got in the car and drove to his hometown.I stood at the entrance to the courtyard, my nerves wound tight as I peered inside. A young girl, about five or six years old, was bouncing around the yard playing by herself.She spotted me and shouted toward the house. "Mom, someone's here!"My heart seized.Elise Carver slowly walked out, with one hand cradling her swollen belly. She looked even softer in person than she had in the wedding photos, wearing pajamas and slippers with an easy smile on her face.From the size of her belly, she couldn't have been far from her due date. She had a spatula in her hand as if she'd been in the middle of cooking. Everything about her radiated the image of a devoted wife and mother.I stared at her, my brows creasing. The ring on her finger was identical to the one on mine."Can I help you?" She smiled at me pleasantly, as though she had no idea who I was.My throat felt raw. "Who are you to Gavin Prescott?"Elise was ab

I asked, "What's that supposed to mean?"Elise replied, "Exactly what it sounds like. He never loved you."Gavin and I have been together since we were teenagers. When he chased you in college, when he sweet-talked you, all of that was for your family's money and connections."And while I was pregnant, you were handling his needs for me, like some free whore. So really, why would I care?"Elise looked down at me like I was beneath her. "You're the mistress I signed off on. As long as my position as the real wife is secure, I couldn't care less about you."I was stunned by the sheer audacity of her words. She looked thrilled with herself."I'm carrying the Prescott family's firstborn son. His parents only recognize me as their real daughter-in-law. If I wanted to, I could have you thrown out tomorrow."Sienna Sanches, to us, you're nothing."If your family didn't have money or if you couldn't fund Gavin's business, he wouldn't have given you a second look. We grew up together. I

Gavin firmly said, "We have nothing to hide."He looked smug, staring at me with open contempt. He thought he knew me. He was convinced I'd never blow things up and risk dragging my family's company into the mess.But my reputation was already in ruins. If clearing my name meant burning everything down, I'd do it without hesitation.I let out a cold laugh, pulled out my phone, and started tapping. I'd been burned enough times in business to learn that keeping receipts was never optional."The evidence is right here."My expression was blank as I scanned the crowd and played the first video."This is a video from six years ago, when Gavin confessed his feelings to me in college."We'd both been so young. He was holding a bouquet of roses, too shy to even look me in the eye, and he almost tripped as he walked over to me."This one is from five years ago, the day we graduated, when he came to bring me flowers. And this is from four years ago, when he got down on one knee, proposed

Elise wasn't quiet either. She bombarded me with voice messages, one after another. I listened to exactly one.She called me a shameless husband-stealer and swore she'd never step aside and give me what I wanted. I didn't need to listen to the other dozens of messages to know they were more of the same.I turned off my phone, blocked them both without a second thought, and sat there with a perfectly calm expression on my face.Those two really did deserve each other.With the noise finally gone, I sank into the couch and let my eyes drift around the apartment. I'd moved in here after the wedding and spent what I thought were the happiest years of my life within these walls. Now all of that had been ripped to shreds, and there was no reason to stay.I called Dad, and my voice came out raw and cracked. Before I could even get a single word out, I broke down crying.My parents had always adored me, and because of me, they'd put their full faith in Gavin. None of us had seen the con

Gavin owed money to the bank and to me, Elise hounded him daily for child support, and on top of it all, he was facing criminal charges. He was cornered with nowhere to turn and tried desperately to reach me, only to find that I'd made myself impossible to find.Brooke informed him that if he didn't repay what he owed, she'd escalate the lawsuit and make sure he lost everything he had left. There was nothing he could do about it, and eventually she filed on my behalf.The evidence was airtight, and the court ruled against him on all counts. Elise didn't escape it either, since she'd knowingly participated in a fraudulent marriage.From what I heard, the two of them nearly tore each other apart during the proceedings. If the bailiffs hadn't stepped in, Gavin might have beaten Elise to death. The judge issued a restraining order on top of everything else.He despised Elise now. In his mind, if she hadn't come to provoke me that day, I never would have gone after him, and neither of t
