I caught my husband with my best friend but they had no idea the revenge awaiting them would be unforgettable.
Im only 32 and was certain I had the perfect life: a dependable husband, loyal friends, a cosy home. I was wrong bitterly and painfully so.
It all began that morning when he, getting ready for what he called an “important business meeting,” was full of his usual enthusiasm. His eyes sparkled, words tumbling out one after another: “This is my chance, love. If all goes well, Ill finally get that promotion.”
I was proud of him, doing everything to show my supporthis favourite dinner, an ironed shirt, a tender “good luck” as he left.
An hour later, while tidying up, I noticed his laptop on the side table. My heart racedthat presentation must still be on it. Without hesitation, I grabbed it and rushed to the hotel where his meeting was supposedly taking place.
Walking in, something felt off too quiet. No music, no laughter, no lively chatter. When I asked, the receptionist raised a puzzled brow: “A business meeting? Theres nothing like that scheduled today.”
I froze. I asked her to check if a room had been booked under my husbands name. It had
Reaching the right floor, I saw something forever burned into my memory: my husband and my best friend, laughing and wrapped around each other, heading into a room. My heart shattered. I wanted to scream, cry, lash out but I just gripped the laptop tighter.
I decided thenmy revenge would be perfect. The kind theyd never forget.
I stood in the shadow of the hallway, phone ready. My heart pounded, but my hands were steady. I took clear photosthem, embracing, with that look that was once only for me.
On my way back to the lift, I immediately called her husband. His voice was groggy, unsuspecting, but at my calm “You need to see this,” he arrived at the hotel faster than I expected.
We met in the lobby. I showed him the photos. He went still, took a slow breath, and in his eyes, I saw the same cold resolve as mine.
Days later, divorce papers lay on the table for both of us. But the story didnt end there. The photos quickly spread onlinea friend “accidentally” helped share them through messaging apps and social media.
Rumours reached my husbands bosses, too. Instead of the long-awaited promotion, he received a blunt dismissal letter citing “loss of trust.” His reputation crumbled overnightbusiness partners refused to work with someone capable of such betrayal.
As for me? I quietly shut the door behind him and erased him from my life, just as hed erased me. Sometimes karma comes swiftly especially with a little nudge.
