On Valentine's Day, I suggest going to a restaurant to celebrate, but my boyfriend, Michael Nelson, refuses. He says impatiently, "Why should we celebrate some lousy holiday? I don't want to waste good money on it." He turns around and happily chats away on his phone, completely absorbed in the conversation. Then, I hear the system's notification going off in my head. "Congratulations. You have received 2,860 dollars." This means that Michael just transferred 1,430 dollars to his side chick. He doesn't know it yet, but I have a system. It's called the Infidelity Cashback System. Every time he spends money on his other woman, I get double the cashback in my bank account.

"Ayah, kapan ayah pulang? Ibu terbaring di ranjang dan nggak bergerak!" Putraku menelepon Michael sambil terisak-isak hingga sulit bernapas. "Panggil saja kalau dia nggak bangun! Dasar pemalas, nggak kerja di rumah juga cuma malas-malasan seperti babi pemalas." "Cari saja ibumu kalau ada apa-apa. Aku sibuk kerja, jangan ganggu aku!" Usai bicara, Michael dengan kesal langsung memutus teleponnya. Saat itu, dia sedang sibuk bermesraan dengan sekretarisnya, sama sekali tidak punya waktu untuk pedui padaku. Hanya saja, dia tak tahu bahwa aku sudah meninggal. Aku tak akan pernah muncul lagi di hadapannya, tapi dia malah memeluk fotoku sambil menangis, memohon agar aku tidak pergi.

On our wedding anniversary, my CEO husband, Michael Grant, invited me to watch the ocean with him. Tragically, a typhoon hit. I stood there in the raging wind and rain for over two hours, and he never showed up. In the end, all I got was a text that he was suddenly going on a business trip and couldn’t make it. Right after that, his intern, Nora Blake, posted a video on her social feed. It showed my usually pampered husband barefoot while helping fishermen haul crates of seafood. Her caption read: "Our hardworking CEO loves to get his hands dirty!" I laughed and commented: "Diligent and enduring—a true role model for us all." The company Slack channel instantly exploded. Everyone was betting on whether I’d finally blow up this time. Michael called me, his voice tight with fury, "Lauren West! What the heck did you mean by posting that comment? Are you trying to humiliate Nora in public? "It was a typhoon. I helped her family move some fish. What’s the big deal? You’re such a pampered little princess who has no idea how hard life really is. Delete that comment now. I’ll take you to the coast another day." Disgust churned in me. I replied, "Let a man who’s already rolled in the mud take me to the ocean? Forget it." Yes. Michael was now tainted, and I didn’t want him anymore.
