Here I was, thinking I’d found my “happily ever after” partner, but I was wrong. Little did I know that he was a liar, a cheat, and quite bad at both!
Thinking I am soon to be married, I discover the truth that I am an unwilling homewrecker. But with the help of the wife, we both got revenge!
When I got engaged to Jake, I thought I was stepping into a new chapter of a romance novel! He told me stories of a rough divorce, painting pictures of his resilience and readiness for a fresh start.
I was completely drawn in, envisioning our life filled with love and promise. So I worked with him to get through it.
Our biggest relationship milestone came one day during an outing. He went down on one knee, held out an engagement ring, and said: “Liz Samuels, would you make me the happiest man alive by becoming my forever wife?
”I was thrilled and immediately said “Yes!” This man was the man of my dreams! Even though we hadn’t been together for long at that point. We met on a work trip a few months before but I knew he was the ONE. The next big milestone came last week when my fiancé invited me to dinner with his old friends,
Hanna and her husband, Danny. This was huge for me because I’d never met any of his close friends before and was so thrilled!Excitement buzzed through me as we approached their home.
I was eager to connect with the people who had helped shape the man I loved! The dinner began with laughter and shared stories, with drinks and snacks flowing. But I noticed Hanna’s occasional cold glances and terse smiles directed at me. I chalked them up to nerves.
Yet, Danny’s wife literally kept rolling her eyes and ignoring me when I spoke! I refused to let her demeanor mess up my evening and focused on enjoying myself.However, what I didn’t expect was that she’d confront me as soon as she got a chance.
As the men stepped outside to tend to the barbecue, they left me alone with Hanna. The living room felt smaller, the air thick with tension. Danny’s wife leaned against the table, her eyes piercing as she stirred her drink.
“So, Liz, how far do you live from here?” she asked, her voice dripping with a tone I couldn’t quite place.”Oh, it’s a bit of a drive because it’s pretty far. But not for long! Jake and I are moving in together at his place soon.
Which means I’ll get to save on gas, haha!” I laughed, trying to keep the atmosphere light. “It’s the next big step for us.
”Hanna’s reaction was not what I expected. Her eyebrows shot up, her stance stiffened and I could tell she was shocked by what she heard.
What she said next hit me like a ton of bricks! “His place? Wait, so Jake didn’t tell you he still has a wife, and that house is hers? Or are you gonna live there with them?” Her words knocked the wind out of me. “What do you mean ‘still’? He told me he was divorced.
”Hanna sighed, a mix of sympathy and frustration in her eyes. “Liz, I don’t think Jake has been completely honest with you.”I was taken aback and didn’t know how to respond further. It finally made sense why Hanna wasn’t so receptive to me.
It turned out that Jake wasn’t my fiancé because he wasn’t divorced! Hanna didn’t approve of Jake’s affair with me while her husband was okay with it. The revelation shattered my world.
After composing myself and letting the truth sink in, I said to Hanna: “I didn’t know he was still married. If I had, I wouldn’t have gotten into a relationship with him. He even proposed and has been lying to me.
I now understand your reservations about me, but I will fix this. Thank you for your honesty.”Over the next few days, I crafted my plan for revenge, not just for the deception, but for the humiliation I endured.
I contacted Jake’s wife, Diana, and apologized for what I was about to tell her. I then revealed everything about my “relationship” with her husband.
Of course, she was as shocked and hurt as I was. But together we decided it was time for Jake to face the consequences of his actions. We orchestrated a meeting to confront him together at the house he claimed was now solely his.
When the day of reckoning arrived, Jake walked into his living room to find his wife and me waiting. His confident stride faltered, and his smile faded as he looked between us. The look on his face was of utter disbelief and confusion!
“Liz? What’s going on? Why are you here with… her? I mean, my wife?” he stammered, unable to even address Diana by name.”Sit down, Jake. We have a few things to discuss. Like the future of this house and your future with us,” I calmly said, motioning to the chair across from us.
His wife’s eyes were steel as she clutched and held up the returned engagement ring. As he sat, his gaze flickered nervously. “I can explain,” he began, but I cut him off.”No, Jake. We will do the talking now. You’ve done enough,” I replied. His wife nodded in agreement, her voice breaking through.
“You’ve been living a double life, playing us both, and it ends now,” she told him.Together, we unveiled our plans for the house. Turning his deceit into our empowerment, I, with my keen sense of investment, helped us present our proposal. We wanted to transform the house into a boutique hotel.
He tried to fight it, of course, but we weren’t having any of it. It was less of a proposal and more a way for him to atone for his actions.
Diana was fortunate enough to be secure in her job and finances that she could find another place.I sponsored the renovations, pouring not only my resources but also my creative vision into the project. Each room in the hotel was themed around classic tales of deceit and redemption.
They both served as a nod to my and Diana’s story and a cheeky dig at Jake’s duplicity. The hotel quickly became a hit and successful.
It became known for its unique decor and as a sanctuary for those looking to rewrite their own stories. We split the profits between Diana and me, providing both of us with a steady income and a sense of vindication.
Besides transforming the house, Diana and I also decided to repurpose our engagement and wedding rings—the tangible symbols of Jake’s betrayal. They were remade into gorgeous pieces that symbolized resilience and rebirth.
I got a new necklace while Diana had an elegant bracelet made. They sparkled with more than precious stones. The jewelry pieces symbolize the triumph of two women who turned a painful end into a beautiful beginning!Of course,
Diana divorced Jake and took everything she could besides the house. She and I became close friends. We often share our tale of deceit that became a triumph with friends and new guests at the hotel.
Our story served as a reminder that from the ashes of deceit, new life can be forged, more beautiful and strong than ever before!Diana wasn’t the only woman who thought she was in a committed relationship.
In the following story, the woman found out the truth about her cheating boyfriend through the other affected party as well!
