The Billionaire's Betrayal, Pregnant Wife's Shocking Discovery

Crouched in a wardrobe at my spouse's celebration, I gripped the pregnancy test and house keys tightly, intending to surprise Alex. Our three-year marriage, aspirations for a joyful family, and my affection all disintegrated in an instant.

"Alex, are you certain you won't invite Elena, your wife?"

"She'd only dampen the atmosphere..."

"How long do you plan to keep that woman around?" My husband's closest friend's scornful chuckle made me shudder as tears slid down my face.

"Jessica's back from overseas and asked if I could arrange a date between you two. Alex, she'll be crushed when she discovers you wed her younger sister."

Someone guffawed. "Which sister will you pick, Alex?" My tear-filled eyes grew wide as I inhaled sharply, grasping the wall for balance. How could my devoted husband toy with my emotions, and with my own sibling? Surely, he'd deny it all.

Alex's resonant voice finally cut through the conversation. "Elena is a stand-in for Jessica, so damaged and unloved that she'll do anything to please me. If I ordered that woman to sacrifice herself for me, she'd do it without hesitation."

Those words struck me like a physical blow, causing sobs to wrack my body as I covered my mouth.

"When do you intend to discard her?" Someone whistled.

"Well... Don't you feel sympathy for an abandoned stray cat in the rain, desperate for affection after being cast aside by everyone?"

Alex snickered cruelly. "Elena is just like that cat, neglected by her family and always so trusting that I couldn't resist indulging her fantasies. Her naivety and innocence make it all the more entertaining. For now, I'll keep her on a string."

My legs gave way as the pregnancy test slipped from my grasp, clattering on the glossy floor, tears streaming down my cheeks as the truth devastated me.

"What was that?" Silence enveloped the area as the men left the room to investigate the noise outside.

Regaining my composure, I clutched my stomach before standing up, exiting and tossing the house keys in the garbage.

"Mommy's sorry." With tearful eyes, I fled, carrying Alex's children - twins. My entire life had been a deception.
