When my ex-husband’s new wife reached out, old wounds reopened. Five years ago, my life shattered when Kevin, my husband, accidentally texted me instead of his mistress, saying, “I hate Bridget… She can’t even give me a baby.” Discovering his affair and resentment, we divorced, and I received half of everything, including becoming a silent partner in his company.
Kevin remarried Jess, his mistress. I tried to move on until Jess messaged: “Kevin’s new wife. I need your help… Only you can save me.” Meeting her, she revealed she was pregnant, and Kevin wanted her to abort the baby due to financial concerns. Desperate and scared, Jess begged me for help.
I decided to help Jess, not by giving money but by offering her my lake house and legal support. I contacted my lawyer and initiated an audit of Kevin’s company, suspecting financial misconduct. The audit revealed significant irregularities, causing a massive stir in Kevin’s business. “You’re ruining me,” Kevin said, but I reminded him, “You did this to yourself.”
With Kevin’s business and reputation in ruins, Jess and I became close friends. She kept the baby, and I supported her every step of the way. One day, as we sat by the lake, she said, “I don’t know what I would have done without you, Bridget.” I smiled and replied, “We women have to stick together.” Justice was served, and Kevin learned that what goes around comes around.
