When Liam, my husband, said he had to travel for work on his birthday, I believed him. I even wished him well as he packed his suitcase. But the next day, while out shopping with my mom, we spotted him through a restaurant window—laughing, kissing, and holding hands with my best friend, Mandy.
My heart shattered, but my mom stopped me from storming inside. “Trust me,” she said. And so, we planned.
The following weekend, I invited Liam, Mandy, and her husband Steve to dinner. Midway through the meal, I stood up with a smile. “I have an announcement—I’m pregnant. And Steve is the father.”
Chaos erupted. Steve denied it, Liam accused me of being crazy, and Mandy ran to the bathroom in tears—with Liam following close behind. That’s when Steve and I listened through the nanny cams I’d planted. Clear as day, we heard Mandy confess to Liam that she only married Steve for money—and the sound of them kissing sealed it.
Steve exploded. He threw Mandy out on the spot, reminding her that their prenup left her with nothing if she cheated. Then I turned to Liam. “Pack your things. You’re done too. Our prenup says the same.”
That night, both cheaters walked out with nothing but shame. I lost a husband and a friend, but I gained something better: freedom, justice, and peace of mind.
Sometimes, the best revenge isn’t yelling—it’s letting the truth expose itself.
