Chapter 1
After the company's video conference ended, my girlfriend, who was away on a business trip, forgot to turn off her camera.
All the colleagues in the online meeting saw her having intense sex with her male assistant in the hotel.
When she came back from her business trip, she shyly covered her lower abdomen and said to me:
"Congratulations! You're going to be a daddy."
His male assistant even shed tears of excitement.
Everyone in the company watched the farce with cold eyes.
They said they wanted to help me destroy this cheating woman together.
After the company's online meeting ended, as the meeting host, I was about to close the session when I discovered an intimate scene playing out in my girlfriend Bethany White's video feed.
Her male assistant rushed into the hotel room, pushed her onto the bed, tore off her clothes, and kissed her wildly.
My hand gripping the mouse suddenly froze.
My colleagues beside me were so shocked their jaws dropped.
The atmosphere instantly solidified.
At the same time, those sticky, disgusting moaning sounds continued without stopping.
"Bethany, you're so amazing, such a seductive little minx~ Tell me, who's better—Leaf Newton or me?"
"Of course it's you, Jay Grant."
Bethany mocked: "Who would like an old stick-in-the-mud like Leaf? Ugh, I've been dating him for four years, and he's never taken initiative in bed. He's not a man at all! I've been sick of looking at that appetite-killing old face for ages!"
I sat frozen in my seat, my hands and feet ice-cold.
I sat motionless, listening to all the mockery and sneering.
Anger rose higher and higher like a tide.
Bethany and I had been dating since college. After graduation, we started a company with friends.
Although we hadn't met each other's parents yet, we both considered each other to be life partners.
Bethany came from an ordinary family. Her parents did odd jobs and had no money, but I thought she herself was excellent, ambitious, beautiful, and outstanding.
Although my parents had some reservations, they still gave face to me and privately prepared a new house, new car, and double the bride price.
They even had the wedding money ready, just waiting to finish this busy period and meet to set a date.
But now, all of this was fake!
And that man was exactly Bethany's assistant, an intern who'd been with the company less than three months.
"Bethany, when can I be with you openly and honestly?"
"Watching you hold hands with Leaf and go out together, I'm so jealous!"
Jay shamelessly held Bethany, his voice hoarse.
"Where does it hurt? I'll make it better."
The disgusting voices of the two made me want to vomit. They were even so eager they forgot to turn off the screen and camera.
"Baby, once I swindle the double bride price from Leaf, won't our future life be wonderful?"
"Oh my, you're so bad." Jay giggled and playfully hit her.
Bethany draped her arms over his shoulders and kissed him: "Isn't my badness what you love about me..."
The two rolled together again with their moaning and groaning.
The scene was disgusting and vulgar, the sound effects more lively than an amusement park.
The meeting was deathly silent.
After a moment.
My closest colleague carefully asked me: "Leaf, are you okay?"
Everyone pulled together a group chat and comforted me not to be sad.
Others also indignantly cursed, saying Bethany was trash and embarrassed them.
Everyone was either a classmate or friend of both Bethany and me.
They had witnessed our past sweetness.
But now they all despised her actions.
Hearing their protective words, my heart was deeply moved.
After thinking it over, I asked them to keep it secret for now and pretend not to know.
Everyone advised me repeatedly.
"Leaf, don't do anything stupid!"
"A cheating woman like Bethany isn't worth sacrificing your whole life for!"
One older colleague even came out with a golden phrase: "A cuckold is temporary, but a dog will never stop eating shit!"
Afraid I'd gone love-brain stupid, they clamored to take me to dig wild vegetables.
I shook my head, swallowing the surging pain.
"Of course I won't let that scum Bethany get her way."
"But just letting her off easy like this—I'm not willing!"
What she took from me, she'll spit it all back out!
