All Chapters of My Husband Used My Paychecks to Support His Ex, So I Ruined Him: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

That was the security I had set aside to have a child and raise one someday.Margaret had been so moved that she’d wiped away tears and praised me as the wonderful daughter-in-law their family was blessed to have.It had all been a lie.The tumor was fake. Their financial troubles were fake.The only truth was that the entire family had conspired to bleed me dry and use my money to support Ethan’s ex-wife.I didn’t make a scene.I folded my prenatal test results neatly, put them in my bag, and took a cab to the hospital where Sabrina was staying.On the way there, I leaned against the back seat and shakily logged into my mobile banking app.Sure enough, every transaction alert on my phone had been blocked by Ethan.I checked the transactions from the past month.An $80,000 deposit for a luxury postpartum care retreat.$20,000 spent on premium prenatal supplements and imported herbal remedies.And another $50,000 transferred directly into an account under the name Sabrina Co

“Bank statements…Why do you need to see those?”I looked at him. “What? You don’t want to give them to me? Then we’ll put the house in my name alone.”He hurriedly waved his hands. “No, no. I’ll get them tomorrow. Honey, don’t be mad.”Greed was always the fastest road to destruction.The next day, Ethan reluctantly handed me his bank statements.I only glanced through them before spotting the signs of forgery.He’d paid someone to create fake statements, completely erasing the money he’d transferred to the postpartum retreat and Sabrina.I tucked the forged statements into a drawer without exposing him.Then I placed several freshly printed documents on the coffee table.“These are the property nominee agreement and mortgage pre-approval forms.“Sign them quickly. The realtor is waiting for them.”With $500,000 dangling in front of him, Ethan couldn’t be bothered to read the fine print.He picked up the pen and eagerly signed the documents, then added his fingerprint to th

Margaret slapped her thigh and began shouting to everyone in the room.“Oh, God! This crazy woman has come after us again!”As she spoke, she backed away, pretending she was afraid I might attack her.“Everyone, stay away from her!“Crazy people can kill someone and get away with it!“When she has one of her episodes, she even attacks her own parents! Please, don’t let her hurt my precious grandson!“This lunatic even tried to attack our entire family with a knife before!“If we hadn’t managed to escape, we’d all be dead by now!”Her words were vicious.With a few sentences, she had branded me as a “lunatic” for everyone to see.The guests immediately erupted into whispers.The people who had been watching the spectacle instinctively backed away several steps.They looked at me as if I were carrying some deadly contagious disease.“Oh, she’s mentally ill? She doesn’t look crazy.”“Talk about bad luck. She shows up at someone’s celebration just to cause a scene.”“Young p

“The loan company is completely legitimate. You think you can just refuse to pay?”Ethan’s last shred of composure finally snapped.Through a gap in the crowd, he spotted me standing not far away.He screamed desperately, “It was her! She did this!“No, wait! She’s my wife! Her name is Natalie Bennett!“I have five hundred thousand dollars from the property compensation in her hands! Go after her! Make her pay!”His desperate outburst had an effect far beyond what he expected.The burly men immediately stopped what they were doing and turned toward me.The collection boss, however, burst into laughter as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.He followed it with another vicious kick, cracking one of Ethan’s ribs.“You think I’m fucking stupid?”He spat in Ethan’s face.“When I walked in, I heard you call her a mentally ill woman with my own ears!“You said you’d never loved another woman in your life!“And now you’re calling her your wife just to save your o
