My Boyfriend Used Our House Savings to Pay Off His Mistress's Debt. I Laughed Coldly and Broke Up: Being a Creditor is Better Than Being a Fool

I followed James for seven years, living frugally, and finally saved our first million dollars.

In this vast New York City, we could finally have a place to call our own.

But on the day we were supposed to pay the deposit, James withdrew all the money from our joint account.

I called him repeatedly: "Where's the money? Why did you take out all of our savings?"

He replied, "I can't ignore Lily's situation. You know she's like a sister to me."

"She needs this money more than we do."

I looked at the woman in front of me, wearing a silk nightgown, every hair in place.
