At Nine Months Pregnant, 1 Faced the Signs of Premature Labor.
Fear and pain consumed me, and instinctively, I reached out to my husband, Ryan, for help.
But no matter how many times I called, the line remained unanswered.
Just as I was sinking into despair, a notification popped up on my phone–a Facebook link shared by none other than Ryan’s old flame, Linda.
The caption read
husband’s fault for being too rough during our lovemaking. It scared the baby! But since he promised to take me and our baby for a dernity photoshoot tomorrow, I’ll forgive him this time”
The photo attached showed my husband, Ryan, cradling Linda’s belly with reverence, his lips pressed tenderly against her skin.
His gaze was filled with adoration, something I thought was reserved only for me.
The background of the image hit me like a thunderbolt–it was my house.
She was lying on the bed I had shared with Ryan for seven years
The sheets, the bedding and everything in that photo had been washed, dried, and lovingly arranged by me.
They were symbols of what I believed was our happy life together.
Now, they were steeped in the stench of their betrayal.
Months ago, Ryan had insisted I move into the hospital to protect the baby.”
Since then, I hadn’t set foot in my own home.
Now, I understood the real reason for his urgency.
A wade of nausea and numbness swept over me, and before I realized it, tears streamed down my fac
More messages followed
(“Dogs, sotry, sent it to the wrong person,” Linda wrote, feigning innocence.
Then, a second message appeared
“That I guess you’ve seen it now. I’ve actually been living in your house for over six months. The baby in my belly is six months along, by the way”
She attached a selfie, cradling her belly, wearing a pink nightgowns that belonged to me
“Oh, and by the way, this baby? Ryan begged me to have it. He said you’ve had miscarriages before, that your body is weak, and your genes might not be good enough for his her. He needs a healthy baby to inherit the family business, you know”
Another photo followed. It was a maternity test report
The date on it twisted the knife further.

“Stay away from her,” another whispered. “Ther husband won’t even show up, she’s probably a mistress, hiding from the real wife
“Then the baby must be illegitimate, someone else concluded.
Iwarded to scream at them to defend my dignity.
Ryan loves me. He’s just busy with work. That’s all.
But now, 1 knew the truth. He had abanded me to stay by his mistress and their unborn child.
Driven by a masochistic urge, I scrolled through Linda’s account, uncovering more evidence of betrayal.
A familiar date popped up January 15.
was our wedding anniversary.
Thad spent the entire day preparing a candlelit dinner, decorating our
home with roses, and baking a cake to surprise Ryan
When the door finally opened, it wasn’t just Ryan who walked in–Linda was with him.
“She’s an old friend who just returned to the country,” Ryan explained. “She has nowhere to stay, so I invited her to stay the night.”
As they stepped into the living room, their eyes fell on the roses, candles, and the meal I had painstakingly prepared.
Ryan looked indifferent, while Linda suppressed a giggle, biting her lip before teasingly remarking
“What is this, the 90s? Celebrating aniversaries with roses and candles? So old fashioned”
Her words sting, making me feel ridiculous and out of place
At the dining table, I had set endy two chairs.
Without hesitation, Ryan said, “Linda’s a guest She and I need to catch up. You can eat in the kitchen”
I was stunned
The dinner I had lovingly prepared for us, he now wanted me to eat alone, while he entertained another woman.
I couldn’t hold back my frustration and confronted him, demanding Linda apologize for her disrespect
Instead, Ryan exploded. He overturned the table, scattering food and decorations everywhere, before storming out with Linda to dine at a restaurant
When I tried to grabs has arm, he shoved me so hard I fell to the ground
The searing pain I felt then was unbearable
Blood pooled beneath me, and my three month
unborn child was gone.
Ryan ignored my cries, leaving with Linda as I writhed on the flour in agony
Later, Linia posted photos of their dinner online
They were seated in an elegant restaurant, Ryan holding her close as she showed off a luxury handbag.

My body and spirit were breaking under the weight of betrayal.
