On the day the gauze was removed from my eyes, I joked that I was blind.

"Don't be afraid if you can't see. I'll take care of you my entire life."

My husband and best friend took care of me while I was in the hospital. They sincerely made that promise to me.

However, when we got home, all three of us were on the same bed.

My best friend rode on top of my husband breathlessly. They were caught up in their intimacy as they thought I could not see.

My best friend was worried I would suspect something and spoke up to eliminate any suspicion. "Uhh… Summer, I'm just giving your husband a massage."

I was so disgusted that I wanted to throw up, but I held myself back.

Once they were done, I was about to find an excuse to leave the room when my five-year-old suddenly ran in. "I miss you so much, Mom!"

Hearing that warmed my heart, and I opened my arms to hug him, but he ran past me and lay down next to my best friend instead.

The 'happy family of three' were all smiles and threw me looks of disgust.

I could no longer tolerate this.

When I called my lawyer, I told him to bring me the divorce papers.

If they wanted to become a family so badly, I would make their wish come true.

I just did not know if my best friend could afford to earn a decent enough income to take care of my useless husband and son.

"Umm… I hope you don't mind, Summer. Massaging requires some strength, so it's totally normal if we make some n-noise."

When I heard Ivana Garner speak, all I did was clench my teeth and say nothing. I gave her a reply and pretended to go back to sleep.

The bed shook as the three of us lay on the same bed. It was me, my husband, Edward Chalk, and my best friend, Ivana.

This was the third day I had returned home from the hospital. Ivana offered to 'help' take care of me after I informed everyone that I had become blind. She even offered to help give my husband 'massages' at night.

Their clothes were entangled on the ground as their undressed bodies moved under the covers. The atmosphere was steamy in bed.

How were they not afraid?

Well, it was only normal that they were not worried about anything because I was 'blind'.

I opened my eyes in the dark. It felt so disgusting that I wanted to throw up, but I pinched myself to hold it back.

They had no idea that I had just been joking when I claimed to be blind. They started to go about their filthy ways when they heard that I could not see.

Doing it while on the same bed as me just made things exciting for them.

Ivana would put on my jewelry that was worth millions while enjoying the luxurious spread of food in the villa. She would wear my branded clothes and use my bags too.

Even my son, whom I had taken pains to nurture and groom, would happily jump into her arms instead of throwing his usual tantrums at me.

While I was in a daze, I heard my son, Evan, call out for his mom. However, he was not asking for me; he was asking for Ivana.

"Yikes!"

I was thinking about this when I suddenly heard someone exclaim. The two were done in bed.

"Stop. I can't do it anymore. I'm exhausted!"

I could feel Ivana suddenly tremble behind me. She quickly came out from under the covers and announced daintily that the massage session was over.

Under the night light with my back against them, I could see her shadow on the ground. She was putting on her clothes while I remained silent.

"I'm going back to bed in my room. See you tomorrow, Summer."

Ivana walked out of the room with flushed cheeks while in her nightie. She beckoned at Edward while doing so.

I closed my eyes and continued to pretend to sleep. An hour later, Edward gently got out of bed from my side.

Once he opened the door and left, I took out my phone and read the message sent by my lawyer: [The divorce papers are prepared.]

A cold look appeared in my eyes as I recalled all the sensual moments that had happened at home while I was 'blind'. I looked around the room and sent my lawyer another message: [By the way, remember to bring over the divorce papers. I want Edward to leave this marriage with nothing.]

As for my son who betrayed me, I decided to make his wish of wanting Ivana to become his mom come true. He would get the new mother he wanted so much. I wondered if he would still smile happily once that happened.

On the first day I got home, Ivana and Edward wanted to give me a surprise. They told me they wanted to take good care of me, but one of them was wearing my dress while the other had his hand under her dress.

That was only the first day I was home.

When I realized Edward and Ivana were cheating right in front of me, I remained silent about it. I quietly turned on the surveillance cameras in the villa and pretended nothing was going on as I enjoyed their 'care' for me.

What I did not expect was the person who hurt me the most turned out to be my son, Evan.

He was Edward's son, indeed. They had the same taste in people. Evan not only helped to cover up for his father, but he even put sleeping pills into my milk and served it to me.

"Will Ivana always be my mom if I feed Mom this milk every day?"

I felt a chill down my spine when I heard Evan say those words while I stood hidden behind the door.

When Evan was born, I took care of him all on my own. It was because of him that I cut down my working hours and focused on my family instead.

Everything I gave him was the best. He had thousands of toys, and we went to the theme park whenever we had time. Everything he ate and used was the best.

Evan had a bad temper, but I had always patiently guided him until now. I never thought of hurting him even when he got mad and bit me until I bled.

Yet now…

"Have some milk, Mom."

He looked at me expectantly while holding the glass of drugged milk. He kept pushing me to drink it.

I was completely disappointed, but I pretended to be unaware of what he did and took a sip.

Evan left after that, happily bouncing away. He even gave me a reminder before he left the room, "Hurry up and finish the milk, Mom."

That was when I started to change my impression of this child. He was my biological son, but he was always nasty to me. He was even drugging me after I became 'blind' and would sometimes place small blades in my towel.

Whenever I disciplined him before, Edward used to berate me, saying that he was young and knew nothing. However, was that really true?

I could see disgust in Evan's eyes when he looked at me.

Children could never lie. Some children were indeed just immature, but some were born to be bad. I no longer wanted this son.

After coming to a decision, I spat out the milk. My eyes turned red as I watched Evan jump into Edward's and Ivana's arms. The smiles on Edward's and Ivana's faces hurt me deeply. However, the most chilling thing about this scene was what they said.

"She's just a blind woman. You never know when she'll die."

"I wouldn't have married her if she wasn't earning so much money."

"We'll be a family from now on. This is our home. Even Evan treats you like his mother…"

Both of them were caught up in their moment, looking as gleeful as ever. I witnessed all of it and proceeded to send the surveillance footage to my lawyer.

When I heard Ivana talking about wanting the villa, I could not help but laugh out of anger.

She was enamored with Edward's bragging and sold to the idea of having a wonderful life ahead after marrying him. Ivana had no idea that Edward had married into my family, the Lang family.

I began to look forward to how she would react when she found out the truth.

"Time for dinner, Summer."

When Ivana helped me to the dinner table, Edward and Evan were chomping on steak and lobster. Their mouths were greasy as they ate their food.

A few plates of vegetables were placed in front of me. Ivana even opened a bottle of expensive wine in front of them.

"Oh, gosh. I spilled some wine. It reeks of alcohol here now."

She was wearing a jeweled ring on her finger as she waved it around. She had a fake smile on her face as she pressed me down into my seat. Ivana then put vegetables onto my plate.

"The doctor said you have to eat clean. I made a full vegetarian meal today."

Full vegetarian?

There was lobster and beef on the other side of the table while chicken noodle soup was simmering in the kitchen. How could she tell me this was a full vegetarian meal?

Evan was confident I had no say in his diet. He chewed loudly and even gulped down big mouthfuls of beef in front of me on purpose. As he reached out for the lobster, he spoke with his mouth full.

"I'm being a good boy, Mom. I'm having broccoli without you telling me to."

He stuffed a piece of lobster into his mouth as he spoke.

Edward chuckled. He and Ivana exchanged looks with delight on their faces.

"See what a good boy our son is."

I continued to be 'blind' and ignored all of this, but my fists were clenched under the table. Ivana looked at me a couple of times with a strange look on her face.

"Summer, are you sure you can't see a thing?"

Her words made me jump and caused my heart to sink. She was staring at me questioningly.

She must have detected something strange about my reaction, but it was fine. I calmed down and suddenly grabbed her. This action scared her, and she wanted to fling my hand away.

"What are you doing—"

"Ivana, I can smell beef and chicken noodle soup."

I said something before she could continue, and Ivana was taken aback. Then, she relaxed and smiled. "You must be mistaken. The smell could be coming from the neighbors."

She began to mix up the food on my plate. The next moment, Ivana lowered her head and spat into my plate. Then, she scooped up some vegetables and put the spoon to my mouth.

"Have some food, Summer. It's getting cold."

Edward and Evan watched this with amusement, waiting expectedly. They looked on with disgust, but no one stepped forward to stop Ivana.

I took a deep breath and turned my head away to avoid the spoonful of food.

"Yuck… It smells bad, Ivana. I think the vegetables have gone bad. Throw them out. They aren't edible anymore."

Ivana flung her spoon to the floor and clenched her teeth with anger, but she voiced her agreement. Her trick did not work.

My last hope for Edward and Evan was crushed when I saw the disappointment on their faces.

I might really have been blind to have met a lousy scoundrel and given birth to his lousy son. Fortunately, I had come to realize my mistake.

With that, the atmosphere at dinner became weird.

…

After Evan went off to school the next day, Edward and Ivana prepared to sneak out of the house.

Ivana smelled of perfume and was dressed sexily as she and Edward held hands while leaving the house.

"Oh, Evan has a school function that I'll be attending with Edward. Evan is just so adorable. I'll tell you all about it when we come home."

Edward put his hand on Ivana's butt and said they needed to hurry out of the house or they would be late. The smiles on their faces were annoying. They rushed out hurriedly without even waiting for my reply.

Once they were gone, I stood up from the couch and stepped on Ivana's clothes, which were all over the floor.
