Some looked down on me—a mere fish seller with average looks—thinking I wasn’t good enough for Tom. Others, upon learning how I’d supported him through school, were full of admiration.
That was the first time I met Lori.
She was Tom’s college classmate, someone who shared his interests and had been close to him on campus. She’d even chased after Tom, though he had turned her down.
From the moment we met, I could tell Lori didn’t like me. Her disdainful gaze and mocking tone said it all. But I didn’t care.
Tom was exceptional and it was natural for women to admire him. Yet his heart belonged to me and that was enough.
After the wedding, Tom turned down offers to work at large companies. Instead, he used what he’d learned in college to capitalize on the live-streaming boom.
I gave him all my savings to help him start his own studio.
Before long, he made a name for himself in the livestream sales industry, earning a fortune. His studio quickly grew into a media company. With success came more women throwing themselves at him.
