I Raised His Mistress' Child for 18 Years
My husband, Simon Fuller, brings home his secretary, Alicia Reed, who has just given birth. He expects me to take care of her while she recovers from the delivery.
Instead of tossing Alicia's things out, I put on my apron and prepare a nutritious meal.
Since then, I've been reduced to the biggest laughingstock in our social circle.
Despite being Simon's lawfully wedded wife, I'm treated like the housekeeper. I spend my entire day waiting on Alicia and changing the diapers of Simon's illegitimate son, Mason Fuller.
Satisfied with the way I've been fulfilling my role as his dutiful wife, Simon brags to his friends, "Zoe's far too madly in love with me. As long as I don't divorce her, she's willing to put up with all kinds of mistreatment.
"She also said that a hired nanny couldn't be trusted and insisted on raising Mason herself."
Banking on the fact that she'd given Simon a son, Alicia orders me around like a housekeeper, demanding that I wash her clothes for her.
Everyone starts placing bets on when I'll finally lose my mind. The bet ends up going on for 18 years.
By now, everyone says I have to be hopelessly in love with Simon. I've willingly sacrificed 18 years of my youth, reduced to being a housekeeper, all in the hopes of winning him back.
However, I'm the only one who knows the truth.
This whole time, I've been waiting for Mason's 18th birthday party.
Once he turns 18, I will finally receive 30% of Fuller Group's shares.
