After years of being trapped in a loveless marriage, I finally found the courage to walk away. My ex-husband, Mike, was a materialistic man who only cared about wealth and status. Our divorce negotiations were a nightmare, but I had a plan.
I agreed to let Mike have everything – the house, the car, and all our savings. He was over the moon, thinking he had won the lottery. But little did he know, I had a secret up my sleeve.
As I packed up my belongings and left the house, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief. I had been pretending to be the perfect wife for far too long. But now, I was finally free.
The next morning, I received a frantic call from Mike. He was livid, screaming at me about how my mother had taken over the house. I couldn’t help but laugh as I listened to him rant.
You see, my mother had helped us buy the house, and as part of the agreement, she had the right to live there whenever she wanted. Mike had signed the papers without reading the fine print, and now he was paying the price.
As I listened to Mike’s tantrum, I could hear my mother’s voice in the background, scolding him for his behavior. It was music to my ears.
In the end, Mike learned a valuable lesson. He had underestimated me and my mother, and now he was paying the price. As for me, I was finally free to start my new life, and I couldn’t be happier.
