On our seventh wedding anniversary, my husband kissed another woman in front of me
On our seventh wedding anniversary, Ethan publicly slapped me in front of everyone.
“It’s Olivia’s birthday, how dare you come here and ruin it?” he sneered.
Looking at the mockery in his eyes, I knew he had intentionally invited me here to humiliate me.
In the lively karaoke room, I was treated like a servant, ordered to select songs and open bottles of wine, watching my husband passionately kiss Olivia right in front of me.
After the party, a drunk Ethan waited for me downstairs.
“Who told you to disappear for 7 days without my permission? This is your punishment. If it happens again, get out of the Evans family!”
“Be careful, or you’ll end up serving me for 7 years without getting a penny!”
The farewell words suddenly caught in my throat.
I clutched the critical condition notice in my hand, thought for a moment, and ultimately decided not to show it to him.

“Realizing you’re old and unattractive, couldn’t find a rich husband, so you came crawling back?” Ethan mocked from the passenger seat as we drove home. “Rachel Wilson! You abandoned me for money back then, and came back when I became successful. This day was bound to come!”
I gripped the steering wheel tightly, laughing bitterly.
“Yes, I deserve this.”
In the seven years of marriage to Ethan Evans, he constantly brought various girls home, being intimate with them right in front of me, taking
pleasure in tormenting me.
But I didn’t understand.
Besides being his bedmate, I also had to be his housekeeper, assistant, and driver. He never gave me a penny, and that once young and beautiful girl was worn down to nothing for him.
Why wouldn’t he believe that I was never with him for his money?
I tilted my head back slightly, holding back the tears in my eyes.
Ethan’s lazy voice sounded again: “Tell me, where did you go for those 7 days that I couldn’t contact you?”
“The hospital.”
“Hospital? Huh, which doctor have you set your sights on? You think these highly educated people can be easily manipulated like I was back then?”
He lifted my chin, his eyes full of playfulness and mockery: “You old woman, don’t think you can seduce anyone anymore!”
I bit my lip hard, but tears still fell uncontrollably.
My heart, already riddled with holes, was torn apart once again, the pain unbearable.
Ethan finally showed a satisfied smile, casually tossing a necklace at me.
“Here, your anniversary gift.”
I, who had endured all kinds of insults without complaint, suddenly started trembling uncontrollably at the sight of this first gift he had given me in 7 years.

“What does this mean? Are you afraid I’ll give up on you and leave, so you’re deliberately giving me a bit of hope so you can continue to torment me?”
“Ethan Evans, it’s been 7 years, haven’t you had enough revenge?”
I don’t know if it was because I was too emotional, but I thought I saw a flash of pain in his eyes.
But it quickly disappeared, replaced by a cold smile.
“You’re overthinking it.”
“For someone like you who’s here for money and won’t leave no matter how badly I treat you, why would I need to give you any sweetness?”
I couldn’t say another word.
Ever since Ethan first brought a girl home and took her to the bedroom in front of me, all explanations became meaningless.
I just wanted to endure it, repay my debt, and then be free.
Back home, Ethan roughly pushed me onto the bed.
“Ethan Evans, this is the last time, I silently thought to myself as I closed my eyes.
I let him press me down without any emotion, as if venting.
Whispering Olivia’s name.
