Chapter 3
The woman was draped in designer luxury, wearing a dazzling set of jewelry around her neck, her long hair smooth and flowing down to her waist, and her face was exquisite.
A chill ran through me.
I recognized the outfit everything she wore, I had bought for myself. Especially that set of jewelry, which I had given myself as a 30th birthday gift!
She looked at me with disdain:
‘Wow, poor thing, are you shocked?”
Hurry up and pay me for the damage, or my husband will make sure you regret it!”
Looking at the giant diamond ring on her finger, I was more certain than ever.
This was my neighbor, Nella, the one who posted her luxury items on Instagram.
It’s your fault, why should I pay you? I’m calling the cops!” I snapped.
Nella gave me a dismissive glance, her disdain clear in her eyes:
Come on, it’s just a little scratch. Are you that desperate for money?”
¡efore I could respond, her phone suddenly rang.
What? You say my son is sick? Fine, I’m coming home right now.”
After hanging up, she let out a huff:
Looks like you got lucky this time. My son needs me, so I’ll let it slide!”
After that, she hung up the phone and quickly drove off.
Watching her speed away without a second thought, I didn’t hesitate and followed her in my car.
Eventually, her car stopped in front of Adam’s parents’ house.
I parked my car in a hidden corner where most people wouldn’t notice.
After Nella got out of the car, Timmy’s little figure immediately appeared.

He ran up and clung to her leg, not letting go:
“Mommy! You finally came to see me! I missed you so much.”
Watching this scene, it felt like something inside me suddenly shattered.
The son I had carried for ten months, whom I had brought into this world, was calling another woman
“mom.”
The bruise on my forehead from last night’s blow still throbbed with pain.
Igritted my teeth, digging my nails into my palm to hold on to whatever little sanity I had left.
Adam finally came running from the door, picking up Timmy and placing him on his shoulder with a
helpless sigh:
Weren’t you just with your mom at the amusement park yesterday? Why are you already asking to see her
gain?”
Nella smiled brightly, leaning forward to kiss Adam on the cheek.
Adam allowed it, and the three of them acted as though they were a real family.
Not far away, Timmy continued to chatter:
This is my real mommy! Not like that old woman, she’s so ugly. My mommy always smells so nice and soft.”
Adam chuckled helplessly:
Alright, alright. But next time you meet, Timmy, you’d better act well. Don’t make the bad woman
uspicious.”
Otherwise, Daddy won’t let you see Mommy anymore, okay?”
immy pouted, and I didn’t hear the rest of what he said.
returned home, disoriented, and the first thing I did was back up the surveillance footage from our home.
The cameras were originally set up to record Timmy’s growth, but I’d never used them due to my busy schedule.
The longest retention time for the footage was only six months.
But over the past six months, Adam had brought that woman home almost every day.
On the couch, by the floor-to-ceiling windows, in the kitchen…

My eyes were red as I watched them act affectionate, and I helplessly watched Adam give away the luxury items I had bought to her.
The most recent footage showed Adam solemnly making a promise to Nella:
“Don’t worry, once I make my last bit of money, I’ll marry you.”
“You’re the only one I’ve ever loved. Nina was just an accident. If she didn’t make money, who would want to marry a yellow-faced woman like her?”
Nella giggled as she embraced him, her voice sickly sweet:
‘Alright, I’ll wait for you to marry me, hubby.”
Timmy, watching this scene, happily snuck into the master bedroom and grabbed a ring.
‘Propose, propose!”
watched as the ring I bought was placed on another woman’s finger.
All the energy, the blood, sweat, and tears I’d poured into these years had now become someone else’s
Jossessions.
At that moment, the front door opened.
Timmy skipped in, holding Nella’s hand.
Adam followed closely behind but froze when he saw me.
le stiffly said:
Sweetheart, what are you doing back?”
glanced at Nella without saying a word, and Adam hurriedly added:
‘Sweetheart, don’t think too much. This is our neighbor.”
withdrew my gaze, replying calmly, “Mm.”
He quickly said to Nella:
“You should head back now. Thanks for everything today.”
