After my husband's business went bankrupt, I received a late-stage breast cancer diagnosis.
To raise money for treatment, I sold all my jewelry and clothes, and even borrowed $100,000.
When I returned home, I noticed a string of numbers had appeared above my husband's head.
Every time he spent money on another woman, the number above his head would increase by one.
As I watched the numbers above his head constantly increasing, I realized his bankruptcy was just a lie!
He had his arm around my cousin's shoulders, his face animated with excitement. "Don't worry, once that bitch is dead, I'll buy you a huge diamond ring!"
But what he didn't know was—
The one with breast cancer was him!

Husband Diagnosed with Breast Cancer

For the safety of my daughter, I constantly kept track of Damien's movements.


After discovering I had moved, he flew into an impotent rage, but being unable to find me for the time being, he turned his sights on Jade once again, putting on another tearful performance for her.


Jade was moved to tears on the spot, immediately agreeing to be Damien's hospital caregiver.


Damien was smugly pleased, thinking he had Jade under his thumb, and started ordering her around like a slave at the hospital.


But little did he know that Jade was only complying on the surface, having long since grown sick of Damien.


One day, she finally found an opportunity. After tricking Damien into revealing his bank card PIN, she took the money and ran.


After Jade fled, Damien lay low for a while.


Perhaps the blow was too great and he fell into a slump, resigning himself to waiting for death.


But events proved I had been too naive.
