Chapter 3

I stood in our bedroom, the familiar walls suddenly feeling like a prison I needed to escape. My hands moved mechanically as I pulled clothes from drawers and hangers, stuffing them into a suitcase without much thought about what I was packing.

"Enough," I whispered to myself, zipping the bag closed with finality.

The video I'd recorded played on repeat in my mind—Shane and Gwendolyn, locked in that passionate kiss, her eyes meeting mine over his shoulder as if to say, "Now you know."

I reached for my phone, my finger hovering over Shane's contact. Part of me wanted to confront him face-to-face, but I knew better. Shane was too skilled at twisting words, at making me doubt my own perceptions. This time needed to be different.

The phone rang twice before he picked up.

"Rose?" His voice sounded distracted. "What's up?"

"I have something you need to see," I said, my voice steadier than I expected. "Or rather, something I've already seen."

"What are you talking about?" A hint of wariness crept into his tone.

I took a deep breath. "I saw you today. With Gwendolyn."

A pause. "Rose, I don't know what you think you saw—"

"I recorded it, Shane." I cut him off, the words falling like stones between us. "Every second of it."

The silence stretched so long I wondered if he'd hung up. Then:

"What do you want?" His voice had changed completely—the charm stripped away, leaving only cold calculation.

"What do I want?" I repeated, disbelief coloring my words. "I want the truth. For once in our marriage, I want you to stop lying to me."

"I'm under a lot of stress," he finally said, his voice taking on that familiar placating tone. "The workload has been unbearable. Gwendolyn understands what I'm going through—she's been supportive."

"Supportive," I echoed, the word bitter on my tongue. "Is that what you call it?"

"It's not what you think," he insisted. "It's just... we've grown close. She's been there for me when you weren't."

"When I wasn't?" My voice rose. "When was that, Shane? When I was working two jobs to support your business? When I was at home alone after my miscarriage while you were 'working late'?"

"Rose—" he started, but I wasn't finished.

"I'm done," I said, the words cutting through the air like a blade. "I'm filing for divorce."

---

Weeks passed in a blur of legal consultations and sleepless nights. The pain in my toe had grown unbearable—a constant reminder of the festering wound in my life that needed attention.

"Ms. Morris?" A gentle voice pulled me from my thoughts as I sat in the hospital waiting room. "We're ready for you now."

The surgery was minor—removing an ingrown toenail that had become infected—but the pain had become so severe I could barely walk.

"This will feel much better soon," the doctor promised as he administered the local anesthetic.

When I woke in recovery, a woman with kind eyes and a warm smile was adjusting my IV.

"I'm Amayah Evans," she said, checking my vitals. "I'll be taking care of you during your recovery."

"Thank you," I murmured, wincing as I tried to move my foot.

"The doctor says you should be able to go home tomorrow," she explained, her voice soothing. "But you'll need to take it easy for a few days."

I nodded, grateful for her gentle competence. For the first time in weeks, I felt like someone was truly looking after me.

---

I was halfway through a magazine when the door to my hospital room burst open. Shane stood there, a bouquet of flowers clutched in his hand, his eyes wild with something I couldn't quite identify.

"Rose," he breathed, rushing to my bedside. "I came as soon as I heard."

"Heard what?" I asked, setting the magazine aside.

"You're pregnant," he said, his voice breaking with emotion. "Someone from the office told me you were in the hospital. I thought... I thought maybe..."

Before I could respond, he dropped to his knees beside my bed, the flowers scattering across the floor.

"We can't divorce now," he pleaded, tears streaming down his face. "Not when we're having a baby. Think about our child, Rose. Think about our family."

I stared at him in disbelief, then slowly reached for my bag on the bedside table.

"Shane," I said coldly, pulling out a folder. "I'm not pregnant. I had surgery for an ingrown toenail."

His face crumpled, confusion replacing the performative grief.

"And this," I continued, opening the folder to reveal the divorce agreement, "is for you to sign."

"I don't understand," he whispered, his voice small.

"You never did," I replied, my hand steady as I held out the pen. "Now please leave."

That night, at our family's most important gala, the boy ran up to me, screaming, "You're the bad lady trying to take my daddy away!" The crowd turned on me, whispering that I was the other woman.

Her back hit the wall beside her bathroom. Nowhere left to retreat. "Mom said I should take care of you." I was standing very close to her and staring down at the swell of her breasts from the top of her robe. I reached out and trailed my hand down her neck, through the center until I pulled the string holding the robe together. "Stop." She whispered but her expression betrayed her. I leaned forward and whispered in her ear. "Why? Give me one good reason and I might." I bit the curve of her neck, and she threw her head back. "Because... ahhh..." she moaned. "This is wrong." "Says who?" I tugged the string, and the robe fell open, leaving her completely bare before me. I stepped back slowly, staring at her body. Shit. **** contains very explicit details.
