I never wanted to see my ex-husband Liam or my former best friend Daria again after our messy divorce. But fate had other plans — and this time, I held the upper hand.
Liam and I were married for three years, trying desperately to start a family. When I finally got pregnant, we were overjoyed — until I suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage. While I grieved, Liam grew distant. One day, I came home early and discovered Liam and Daria together. Devastated, I filed for divorce and cut them both out of my life.
Fast-forward two years: I had rebuilt my life and opened my dream restaurant, Gracie’s Table. One night, as I was closing up, Liam and Daria walked in, mocking me and assuming I was just an employee. When they demanded a table, I calmly told them the truth — I owned the restaurant. Their smug expressions vanished instantly.
The next morning, they left a nasty one-star review, but my loyal customers rushed to defend me, leaving glowing five-star reviews. The story went viral, and business boomed.
As for Liam and Daria? They disappeared from my life for good. And now, I’ve found love again with Mark, my head chef. When I told him the story, he laughed and said, “They got exactly what they deserved.”
“Not revenge,” I told him with a smile. “Just dessert.”
