Chapter 239

My husband's ex-

girlfriend posted a Facebook picture. It was a title deed to my house.

Her caption read: "I finally got the home I've always dreamed of. Antonio, thank you for this amazing gift."

I commented: "What on earth have you done?"

My husband called, blaming me.

"Wendy's on her own, her kid needs school, and they require the deed. Can't you be more understanding?"

Wendy Garza's sobs were audible in the background.

It was my birthday, and I was planning to surprise Antonio with the news that I was pregnant.

Until seven p.m., he ignored my calls and texts.

Only after my comment did he call, and he was furious.

He hung up as I tried to explain, and a sharp pain shot through me.

I was bleeding.

Thirty minutes later, Wendy posted another picrure — a brand-new Mercedes.

She bragged: "He bought it for me outright. Antonio's the best guy in the world."
