He had been having an affair with our neighbor for months—and to cover his tracks, he stole my earrings and gave them to her as a gift.
When I confronted him, he tried to deny it, but the look on his face said everything. I showed him a photo of his grandmother wearing the same earrings, and he had no words.
The betrayal cut deeper than I could’ve imagined—not just cheating, but giving away something that was a piece of our family’s legacy.
Let’s just say, those earrings weren’t the only thing he lost that week.
