He Gave Me the Things His Mistress Didn't WantChapter 1
For so many years, I had never received birthday gifts from my husband, Donald Hernandez, but on the day, I finally received one, it just so happened I saw what his assistant had posted on her Instagram Feed. [A worn-out relic is a perfect match for a second-hand match. As for me, naturally, I deserve to have only the best one!
Her post was accompanied by a photo of an exquisite luxurious jade necklace.
Then I opened my birthday gift. Inside of it, I only found a worn-out diamond necklace.
As I glanced back and forth between the assistant's post and the secondhand necklace in my hand, it suddenly struck me that the thing that I cherish beyond measure was nothing more than a second-rate trash to someone else. On top of that, the man I had loved for more than ten years thought that all I deserved to get was a cheap used trinket.
Donald saw me as the ever-loyal, unchanging lapdog, who would always be at his beck and call.
However, he was more than welcome to find someone else to be his dog. I was done playing that part.
