Refused to Raise His Best Friend’s Child

My husband, Marcus, brushed off my objections and donated his sperm to his childhood best friend, Camille—all because she had a terminal illness and wanted a child.

Afterward, he dismissed my feelings with a casual shrug.

"Camille doesn't have much time left, Audrey. Why would you start trouble with someone so sick? I promise, once she has the baby, I'll make sure the kid calls you Mom."

Everyone assumed I was head over heels for Marcus, completely devoted—convinced I'd never walk away.
