For 17 years, Lena believed she had a happy marriage with her husband, Derek. But as she entered her late 30s, he began making cruel “jokes” about her aging—commenting on her wrinkles, gray hair, and calling her “Grandma” or “Mom” when they went out. He constantly compared her to younger women online and made her feel unattractive and unwanted. Over time, the teasing turned into emotional abuse, leaving Lena insecure and broken.

One day, she discovered Derek was having an affair with a much younger influencer named Tanya. When confronted, Derek coldly told Lena that Tanya “took care of herself,” unlike her. Lena calmly told him to go and live with Tanya, and he did—abandoning their family for a woman obsessed with Botox and selfies. Though heartbroken at first, Lena eventually found peace and started rebuilding her self-worth. She joined an art class, met new people, and began to smile again—something even her children noticed.

Meanwhile, Derek’s new relationship quickly fell apart. Tanya treated him like a walking wallet and eventually left him for someone richer. Desperate to keep up, Derek began getting cosmetic treatments himself. Then karma struck: a Botox procedure went wrong, leaving half his face temporarily paralyzed. Suddenly, the man who mocked Lena’s natural aging couldn’t even move his own face.

A year later, Lena is happier, stronger, and surrounded by love and respect. Derek, on the other hand, is broke, alone, and working a lower-paying job. When people ask if she ever thinks about him, she simply smiles and says, “He spent years mocking my wrinkles—now his own face doesn’t even move.” In the end, she didn’t need revenge. Karma took care of it.
