At our class reunion, my husband Levi, in order to help his pure love complete a Truth or Dare challenge, reduced the robot mother I had spent ten years meticulously creating to a pile of scrap metal.
By the time I arrived, he was still criticizing the robot mom for being too lifelike, claiming it had terrified his pure love.
Shaking with anger, I confronted Levi: "You knew how important this robot was to me. Why would you do such a thing?"
Levi replied with a dismissive look: "It's just a robot after all. If you could make the first one, surely you can make a second. What if Meadow, with her weak heart, had been scared to death?"
But what he didn't know was that the crucial components had been destroyed, making it impossible for me to create a second one.

Husband Destroys My Robot Mom for His First Love

She was fully dressed, sitting primly on the sofa waiting for me to return.


"Vivienne, you left angrily last night, and Levi got drunk again, so I had to take him home and look after him."


She finished with a coy smile, looking down.


I couldn't be bothered with her act and went straight to showing her the door.


"I heard your rich husband just left this morning to relax on a yacht with a bunch of models. Shouldn't you be keeping a close eye on that?"


Hearing this, Meadow forgot all about Levi, grabbed her bag, and left.


The cold words rang out behind me. I turned to see Levi staring at me icily, holding a glass of water.


Sleepless all night, my face was deathly pale, and my words came out like an emotionless robot.


I had no desire to argue and got straight to the point.


"Levi, I've found a crucial lead in my mother's murder from back then."
