Name: A Husband's Betrayal
Rating: 5.0 (1 reviews)

Chapter 1

I was once the most dazzling heiress in Jastrait. But a single psychiatric assessment led to my confinement in a mental institution.

For three years, I endured unimaginable hardships. My husband, Grayson Moss, whom I loved with all my heart, finally remembered to bring me back.

When we met again, I no longer wished to be near him.

Later, Grayson asked why I no longer loved him.

I stared at him in utter silence, and said, "I let you go for your own good."

On the day I was brought back to the villa, I looked at myself in the mirror. My cheekbones were prominent, my face sunken, no longer resembling the privileged young heiress raised in a sheltered life of luxury.

"Mrs. Moss, would you like a glass of milk to warm yourself up?" As I was lost in thought, a strange woman suddenly appeared, holding a cup of hot milk.

Startled, I turned around and accidentally bumped into her. The hot milk spilled, scalding my hand more than I expected, and I let out a cry of pain.

I quickly whispered an apology, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Before I could finish, to my surprise, the woman knelt down with a thud, "Mrs. Moss, it's all my fault. I startled you. Please don't send me away."

I was stunned.

At that moment, a familiar voice came from outside the door, "What happened?"

I looked up and saw that familiar face. Grayson, the man I had chased for ten years, loved with all my heart, and who had personally sent me to the mental hospital three years ago.

A wave of fear washed over me, my face turned pale, and I couldn't help but step back a few paces.

Grayson lifted his gaze to me, then said calmly to the kneeling woman, "Norah, you may leave."

The room was left with just the two of us.

I didn't dare to look up at him.

Yet he walked up to me without hesitation, gripping my chin forcefully, his expression stern, his voice laced with anger, "I didn't expect that after three years, you still haven't learned your lesson, you..."

"I'm sorry." Before he could get angrier, I quickly apologized.

He was taken aback, staring at me intently.

The room fell silent for two seconds. Afraid he would truly get angry, I repeated, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I'll behave from now on and won't make any more mistakes."

"Who are you putting on this pitiful act for? Just living comfortably in a different place, aren't you?"

Was that so? Was it really just living comfortably in a different place?

If it were before, I would have certainly made a scene with him. But I was no longer the proud and willful heiress of the Martin Family.

Three years ago, the Martin Group suddenly and unexpectedly went bankrupt overnight. I cried, begged, and made a scene for him to help, but he sent me to the mental hospital himself. My parents couldn't accept the reality of bankruptcy and tragically took their own lives from the thirtieth floor of the company building. Because I was in the mental hospital, I couldn't attend my parents' funeral. Afterward, I endured unimaginable hardships in the mental hospital.

I dared not think about it further and lowered my head in submission, "Yes, I'm sorry."

Although a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, he seemed satisfied with my response and finally let go of my chin.

My chin was red and swollen from his grip, but I dared not make a sound.

He turned to leave, but at the door, he suddenly looked back, "Make a cup of coffee and bring it to my study later."

Didn't he hate drinking the coffee I made the most?

Three years ago, I used to prepare a cup of coffee for him every day, but he would just pour it away.

Now, I was diagnosed with a terminal illness, and my sense of taste was gone.

I grew up being adored by my parents, with a sense of pride and privilege that defined me. Yet, I fell for Grayson, my childhood friend.

For the first time, I realized someone could captivate me so completely; he consumed my thoughts and emotions. I looked down on the girls who liked him, always feeling worlds apart from them. For Grayson, I gave up my pride, chasing after him every day.

Who would have thought that the Grayson's grandfather would take a liking to me, wanting me to marry Grayson, to form an alliance with the Moss Family? Grayson's grandfather was on his deathbed, and Grayson reluctantly agreed.

Upon hearing the news, I was so happy I couldn't sleep for nights, always anticipating the sweet life after marriage.

But that anticipation ultimately turned into a mirage.
