I fell in love with another woman, and we’re expecting a baby, the husband said….
Ellen, realizing she had gone too far, went to the kitchen to prepare something for her husband’s dinner. Christopher tried to calm down, focusing his attention on his son. But what the two-year-old had told him had left some doubts in the man’s mind.
The little boy shared with his father how he spent his day, telling him in his own childish way that he had ice cream and played with his uncle. That night, Christopher put off the unpleasant conversation with his wife, but asked what they had been doing today. Ellen answered vaguely that they had stayed home all the day.
At night, Christopher couldn’t get Anne out of his head. He noted to himself how good she still looked and how pregnancy suited her. The thought that his ex-wife was happy with someone else drove him crazy.
A sudden wave of unfounded jealousy overwhelmed him again and again. The next day, Christopher went to work as usual. Unexpectedly, he said to Ellen as he left the house, I sent you the money you asked for on your card, so update your wardrobe.
After hearing these words, Ellen smiled and literally jumped on her husband, wrapping her arms around his neck. My dear, thank you. I love you, my love.
See you tonight, said Christopher. He carefully pushed his wife aside and left the house until evening. The man did not go to work that day.
Instead, he decided to follow Ellen to see if she really would go shopping with their son. And soon he got very disappointed because he caught his spouse in the act of deception. As soon as Ellen left the house with their son, Christopher set off after her.
He drove cautiously so as not to be noticed. It was immediately alarming that his wife went to a residential area of the city, where she parked the car in front of a ten-story building, took their son in her arms and went inside. Christopher patiently waited for her to come back out, which didn’t happen until closer to the evening.
Ellen left someone else’s house, accompanied by a young man carrying Christopher’s son on his shoulders. Christopher barely contained his anger, but didn’t reveal himself. He wanted to get to the truth and began to have doubts in his head.
Meanwhile, Matthew and Anne finished building their dream home and planned to spend the weekend there with their friends Wes and Gwen. Matthew, I’m going to my apartment for a minute. I need to water the flowers.
We won’t be here for a few days. Can you handle it yourself? Maybe take Eva with you? Yes, my love, of course. With Eva, we’ll do it faster.
Eva did her best, deftly watering the flowers and entertaining Anne by humming a tune. The sudden knock on the door didn’t surprise the woman with the child. It’s probably Daddy.
Please open the door, dear. But first ask who’s there. Anne turned to the little girl.
OK, Mama Anne, I’ll be right there. Running to the door, Eva asked who was there. Hearing a stranger’s voice behind the door, she immediately called for Anne.
When the woman looked through the peephole, she was very surprised to see an uninvited guest. Christopher, what are you doing here? The woman asked, opening the door. We need to talk.
I’m a fool. Forgive me. I apologize for what I’ve done to you.
Let’s start over, please. Anne looked at Eva and smiled at her. Eva, go check if we watered all the flowers together.
I need to talk to this person for a few minutes. The little girl obediently nodded her head and disappeared behind the door of the room. Christopher, are you out of your mind? I have a different life now.
I’m expecting a child with my beloved. Once upon a time, you said you were finally happy and you were about to have a son, remember? Well, now I understand what you meant. Christopher, I’m finally happy.
I have a daughter and another child is on the way. I don’t love you. I let you go a long time ago.
Anne, no, you can’t. I was a fool. I’m divorcing Ellen.
She lied to me from the very beginning. She was with me for the money. My son, he isn’t mine.
It’s all a long story. I did a DNA test. Ellen gave birth to a son by another man.
And the worst part is, all this time, while I wasn’t home, she was spending time with the boy’s biological father. Ellen provided for her lover at my expense. Anne, I’m all alone now.
Forgive me and come back to our home. Remember how happy we were? Together there? I will love your child as my own. I will be lost without you.
Christopher looked hopefully at his ex-wife. Now you understand how I felt when you betrayed me. Only, Christopher, let’s be honest.
I was a faithful wife. I never betrayed you. You destroyed everything yourself.
So it turns out that the fact we didn’t have children is not my fault at all. Christopher, you got what you deserved. But it came back to you like a boomerang.
Leave and never dare to come here again. I will never come back to you. Christopher was in despair.
The apartment door opened and Matthew appeared on the doorstep. He had unintentionally overheard the conversation between his wife and her ex-husband. Dear, you and Eva were gone for a long time.
I decided to check if everything was okay, he said. Wes and Gwen have already arrived and Tommy couldn’t wait for Eva. Having said this, Matthew looks sternly at the uninvited guest.
And what are you doing here? Actually, I bought this apartment. I have the right, Christopher replied. What a wretch you are…
