All Chapters of My Husband Stole My Future: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Every night, she took bubbling herbal brews until midnight. Her back was bruised blue from acupuncture. Each round of egg retrieval felt like stepping into the grave.Even her husband, Michael, couldn't bear it anymore. He pulled her close, his voice thick with emotion."As long as I have you, that's enough. A baby... let's just leave it to fate."Chloe stubbornly blamed her own body.Now, the doctor gave her the truth. She wasn't infertile. Someone had secretly inserted an IUD inside her."Do you want me to remove it?" the doctor asked.Chloe bit her lip until the tang of copper filled her mouth. "Remove it."When the instruments entered again, pain racked her body. She clenched her teeth, holding completely still.The doctor frowned during the procedure. "No matter how tight money is, you shouldn't neglect your health. This cheap iron coil is completely rusted through! It can cause cancer!"A cheap iron coil. Rusted through.Chloe stared at the white ceiling, tears sl

Yes, Michael had been undeniably good to her.When she mentioned craving pastries from a bakery across town, he drove an hour at three in the morning to buy them and brought them back piping hot.When she was afraid of the dark, he made sure to video call her every night at ten while away on business trips, whispering gently until she fell asleep.On her birthday, he rented out a rooftop restaurant.He pulled out a ring under the night sky, and said softly, "Chloe, for the rest of my life, I only want to cherish you."That devotion had been so real, so impossible to doubt. Now, every memory carved into her like a scalpel.Michael looked at her, his expression softening for a fraction of a second. His voice dropped low. "Chloe, stop making a scene. If I didn't care about you, I wouldn't have gone through all this trouble to keep things balanced."He sighed, reaching down to help her up. "Can't we just keep things the way they are?"She didn't want his twisted version of balanc

Chloe lifted her eyes slowly, looking at Maya's picture-perfect face of innocence.The day she received her acceptance letter, Maya was the very first person she shared it with.That day, her hands trembled with excitement, yet she felt anxious. She gripped Maya's hands, repeating the same words over and over:"Maya, please don't tell Michael yet. I haven't figured out how to break it to him..."Maya laughed and reassured her. "Trust me, Chloe! My lips are sealed. You're incredible. I always knew you could do it!"That genuine, beaming face overlapped with the woman standing before her now.Chloe's blood turned ice-cold."Chloe!" Michael growled her name, veins bulging along his arms. "I don't give you permission! You're not going anywhere!"Sarah rushed forward with bloodshot eyes, clutching the hem of Chloe's shirt."Chloe! Are you going abroad... to expose what happened years ago? Are you going to tell everyone I took your spot?"Sarah sobbed, trembling. "Please don't do t

Michael let go of Chloe's hand instantly, subtly taking a step backward.The sheer humiliation burned straight through Chloe's heart.She thought she would break down sobbing, but her heart felt as if it had been scraped raw with a dull blade. She felt numb and broken, yet she was unable to shed a single tear."No... that's impossible..."Her mother's face turned deathly pale. Her frame trembled violently as she gasped for air. "My Chloe... she would never do such a thing..."Before her sentence finished, every phone in the room pinged with notifications.Sarah gasped dramatically, turning her screen toward Michael with shaking fingers."Michael, look! Someone posted screenshots in our college alumni group! "Messages of Chloe flirting with other men... and proof she was sleeping around for money!"Chloe stood frozen. She unlocked her phone, watching as vicious comments flooded the screen.[Unbelievable. She always acted like a saint, but she was this wild behind closed d

By her third day in the holding room, Chloe's stomach burned with hunger.The counselor arrived at two just like the previous days and repeated her words in a measured tone."Chloe, you must understand that jealousy is a woman's most unsightly trait."You need to learn to accept this child as your own and focus on being a devoted wife. That is your true value."Chloe's voice was raw. "It's a mistake.""Obstinate as ever." The counselor sighed and nodded to the guard at the door. "No apology, no food. Those are the rules here. Since she refuses to yield, make her stand facing the wall."Chloe was forced to stand facing the wall while Sarah supervised with a smiling face.No bending the knees. No drooping the head. At the slightest quiver, the cane would strike and tear her skin open.Sweat beaded on Chloe's forehead. Her nails dug into the wall, leaving bloody streaks.The physical pain had turned numb.Suddenly, a loud voice broke out in the hallway."I am her friend! I ha
