Emery was furious. She felt so wronged that tears nearly spilled from her eyes.

Back then, it was this very man who insisted on bringing Gianna home. He said she was the daughter of a benefactor who had passed away.

Their own daughter was gone; Gianna could fill that empty space and become someone they could care for.

Everyone treated Gianna like a real sister, like a real daughter. So why was Emery the only one being blamed?

“Enough. We’ll talk about this another time,” Raymond said coldly. “I’m exhausted from work these past few days. I’m going to bed early.”

He truly was tired. Bone-tired. He had no energy left to argue about the matter anymore.

In the past, he thought his wife was gentle and understanding. She seemed kind, simple, and free of bad intentions.

That was why he never asked her to fight alongside him in the outside world, never asked her to shoulder business pressure or face storms with him.

He believed it was enough for her to take care of the home. As long as the children were safe and the house felt warm when he came back, that was enough.

But now he saw it clearly. She couldn’t even do that. That adopted daughter had thrown the entire family

into chaos.

He couldn’t pinpoint the exact moment, but their family had ceased to exist as it once did.

Their daughter had been forced to leave. The bond between their son and daughter was completely broken.

Their sons were now revolved around the adopted daughter.

Even his wife was being led by the nose.

Haha! How ironic!

That girl’s methods were truly impressive.

He had been busy dealing with those people outside, making sure they couldn’t find that thing.

The price he paid was heavy.

Now it seemed like his family was falling apart.

The more Raymond thought about it, the darker his mood became.

He said nothing more. With a grim face, he went straight upstairs.

Emery rarely saw her husband look so mad. She didn’t dare say another word.

She only reminded him gently to get some rest and said they could talk tomorrow.

Then, still trying to be considerate, she quietly gathered his dirty clothes and began sorting them.

As Emery was about to put her husband’s dirty clothes into the washing machine, she suddenly heard a sharp clink.

Something had fallen out of his pocket.

“What’s this?” Emery muttered.

She bent down and picked it up. The moment she looked closely, her heart dropped.

It was a woman’s earring.

If it had been an ordinary earring, she might not have thought much of it.

She could have assumed it was hers, or maybe a surprise gift her husband planned to give her.

But this one was different. It looked far too familiar and left a deep impression.

It was the exact earring worn by the woman at the wine tasting earlier that day. Emery couldn’t even remember her name and.didn’t care to.

O

What made it worse was that this designer pair only came as a single set.

And that woman had said it was a birthday gift from her husband.

“How could this be?” Emery whispered. “Why would my husband have another woman’s earring in his pocket?”

Her mind went blank, like she had been struck by lightning.

She tried to find a reasonable explanation for Raymond. She wanted to believe there was one.

But no matter how hard she tried, nothing made sense. The truth was right there in her hand.

She began searching frantically, turning things over, hoping to find something-anything-that would erase the doubt growing in her heart. Instead, she saw it. On the collar of her husband’s white shirt was a lipstick mark.

Another shock hit her.

Her whole body began to shake, trembling uncontrollably,
