I was furious.
If you don't want to explain, fine, but why do you have to interrogate me?
I decided to abandon my project and take a taxi home directly.
What's the point of making money when my home is almost burglarized?
I hurriedly rushed back home, kicked open the door, and came face to face with two people on the sofa who were laughing and chatting.
It was my mother-in-law and Chen Ming.
As soon as my mother-in-law saw me, she sneered.
"Oh, isn't this our busy woman? How can you bear to come back? You really don't know how to lose weight. You're getting uglier and uglier. Only my son can tolerate you."
Chen Ming glanced at me displeased.
Without saying a word, I walked over and placed my phone screen in front of him, showing our chat history.
"Chen Ming, I don't believe your mom's story about her account being hacked. Tell me, are you cheating on me? And where did she find these photos?"
"I don't know."
Chen Ming averted his gaze, piercing my heart.
I tightened my grip. There was nothing left to understand.
A few months ago, I had a miscarriage, which resulted in my deteriorating physical condition and skin, and I no longer looked as good as before. But who is to blame for all this? It's her, for cooking whatever she wanted for me to eat.
I repeatedly advised her that I was allergic to soy and shouldn't eat it. In order to prevent me from finding out, she secretly mixed it into the dishes, which led to my miscarriage and almost cost a life.
At that time, she even justified herself, saying, "How was I supposed to know you really have a soy allergy? I thought you were lying to me. Who knew that there are still people allergic to soy these days? Besides, everything is fine now, you're just being overly dramatic. It even cost me ten thousand in hospital expenses. You really don't know how to manage money."
My parents were out of town at the time, and I spent the money myself. It almost made her furious.
My husband married into my family, and he's a mama's boy who didn't spend a penny on the bride price. Yet, the whole family moved into our new house.
According to the prenuptial agreement, we were supposed to live together as a couple, but gradually, my mother-in-law and younger sister-in-law forcefully moved in under the pretense of taking care of us.
My mother-in-law squinted at me with her small eyes and said, "What are you looking at? Your appearance is disgusting, yet you're always dressing up. Where can you find a woman outside who behaves like you? You should stay at home and be a good wife and mother. You, a woman, can't even give birth to a son. If it were the past, I would have thrown you out long ago."
I couldn't help but laugh.
Throw me out?
The house is in my name, the car is in my name, and even the daily expenses of the household are covered by me.
All because my family is in business and has money. That's why I've become such a pushover who pays for everything.
In order to provide better conditions for the family, I worked on projects late into the night, which she couldn't see. And now she wants to throw me out.
I took a deep breath and calmed myself.
"Chen Ming, now that your mother humiliated me like this, won't you say a word for me?"
Chen Ming looked away.
"My mom is not wrong. We've been married for so long, and you still haven't given birth to a son. I've already given you face by not kicking you out. Why don't you quit your job and serve my mother? Women should not be too ambitious."
I smiled. He really thought highly of himself.
It's my house, my body, why does he have the right to dictate?
People, indeed, should not be too lenient.
I stepped forward and stood in front of Chen Ming.
Raising my hand, I slapped him.
The other person covered his face and exclaimed.
I said coldly.
"Looks like I'm the one who gave you face. Now you dare to talk to me like this and insult me. Don't think you can bully me just because my parents aren't here. You need to know that I'm not someone to mess with."
"Have you forgotten how you begged me not to leave you before?"
