My Husband Had Me Sterilized For His Mistress
It had only been a month since we got married when Alexander Thorne got into a car accident.
He injured his testicles and lost his fertility from then on.
He clung to me, weeping:Nancy, I can never have children in this life. Let's just get a divorce.
I immediately assured him I wouldn't leave him.
After all, he was the heir to Thorne Corporation.
To spare him from feeling insecure, I quickly underwent a tubal ligation myself.
Ten months later, I saw him arm-in-arm with Daisy Miller, the struggling college student I'd been sponsoring.
In her arms, she held a baby.
Daisy whispered shyly, "What if Nancy finds out we have a child?"
Alex scoffed, "So what if she finds out? She's already had her tubes tied. If she dares to make a fuss, we'll just say it was an accident. She should be grateful you gave me a child."
Back home, I didn't storm in like a madwoman to confront Alex. Instead, I calmly retrieved the dashcam footage.
The video showed Alex taking Daisy to the hospital on the very afternoon of our wedding day.
Inside the car, they embraced passionately.
"Alex, I'm really pregnant! To have a baby just like you I could die happy."
Alex's eyes crinkled with a smile. He lovingly wrapped his arm around her waist. "Silly girl, I can't marry you in this lifetime, but all my companies will belong to you and our son. Don't worry, even if I'm married, I won't have children with Nancy."
Daisy lifted her small face from his chest, a hint of jealousy in her voice.
"Alex, Nancy won't agree to not having children, will she? She's rich and powerful. If she has kids, won't our son be bullied by them his whole life?"
As she spoke, she buried her face in his chest, her eyes welling up.
"I don't care if Nancy looks down on me, but if our child has to live his entire life under her shadow, I'd be heartbroken."
Alex gently kissed her forehead, then a chilling glint flickered across his face.
"She'll never have children. After our wedding, I'll stage a car accident, tell her I'm injured, and then get a vasectomy. Your child will be my only child in this life."
Daisy immediately teared up, then lifted her plump lips to meet his.
Moments later, ignoring Daisy's pregnancy, they began a frantic session right there in the car.
In that instant, my rage soared.
Alex, we came from prominent families, always destined to be together, childhood sweethearts in a way. I never imagined you would scheme against me like this.
Well, then I didn't need to consider our long-standing connection either.
As Alex walked in, beaming, my plan was already taking shape.
Alex must have been thoroughly pleased outside; his face was flushed, the lingering lust from his passionate encounter still visible in his eyes.
He smiled broadly, pulling out an earring and handing it to me.
"Nancy, happy anniversary!"
He reached out to pull me into an embrace. In the past, I would have eagerly leaned in, wrapping my arms around his neck and giving him a kiss.
But the thought of his lips just having touched that trash made me utterly nauseous.
I feigned shyness, stepping back two paces.
"I've prepared a candlelight dinner."
Alex chuckled, pinching my cheek before heading into the bathroom.
I immediately grabbed a pack of wet wipes and scrubbed the spot he had touched, going through half the pack.
By the time Alex emerged, I had composed myself.
I went straight to the point.
"Let's adopt a child. Then, when we're old, they can inherit our company."
Alex paused, clearly surprised I was willing to adopt.
I continued slowly,
"You're close with Director Johnson at the orphanage, aren't you? Have him keep an eye out for us. If there's a suitable child, we can adopt them directly."
Alex hesitated, then, after a long moment, he spoke nervously, probing,
"Nancy, we agreed to be child-free. Why the sudden change of heart about adopting? After all, it wouldn't be our biological child. Would you really leave them all your assets?"
I smiled sweetly, setting down my wine glass.
"Being child-free is good, but I think having a child who can help you with the business when they grow up would be nice."
Seeing my serious demeanor, Alex visibly relaxed. His pathetic act began.
"Nancy, I'm so sorry, I"
I immediately shushed him, cutting off his nauseating confession.
"We grew up together. As long as you don't betray me, I'll dedicate my life to you. But if you were to ever do something to hurt me"
As I spoke, I plunged my fork into the steak, tearing it into tiny pieces with brutal force. Alex's awkward voice cut through the silence.
"No, no, never! Marrying you is my blessing, how could I ever hurt you?"
I instantly flashed a perfect smile.
"Happy anniversary, honey."
Alex worked fast. A few days later, he took me to the orphanage.
Looking at the newborn baby, barely a month old, I couldn't help but sneer internally. Alex, this child will drag you straight to hell.
Three days after bringing the baby home, I called Daisy.
"Daisy, I just adopted a little baby. If you're not too busy, could you come help me out? I don't really trust nannies."
Even through the phone, I could hear Daisy's barely contained euphoria.
"Nancy, I'd love to! You treat me like a sister, it's only right that I help care for my little nephew."
Before I could say another word, Daisy quickly added,
"Nancy, I'll be right over. You can leave our little nephew to me from now on. You just focus on the company."
The call ended with a snap. I smiled, poking the baby's cheek with a sigh.
"Don't blame me for putting you through this, kid. Your birth is a sin."
Daisy arrived swiftly. As soon as she walked in, she snatched the wailing baby from me, her brows furrowing in genuine concern.
"Nancy, why is the baby crying so hard? Is he hungry?"
I immediately took the baby back. "He just ate," I said nonchalantly, "He had seven ounces of formula, and Martha just changed his diaper."
With that, I placed the baby on the sofa.
Daisy's eyes welled up instantly, and she lunged forward, trying to pick up the child.
I grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the master bedroom.
"Daisy, come see the room I've prepared for you. Oh, and you can't spoil the baby. If he misbehaves, just give him a few taps. An heir to Thorne Corporation can't be a spoiled brat. He needs to be tough and disciplined from day one."
"Nancy, Star is still so small. You should wait until he's older to train him, or he might get sick," Daisy stammered awkwardly.
Star?
My head buzzed.
Star. That was the name Alex and I picked for our future child right after we got engaged.
That night, after our engagement party, Alex and I watched the stars on the rooftop.
He said if we ever had a son, we'd name him Star.
Back then, at eighteen, Alex must have loved me.
But with Daisy's appearance, he gave all our hopes and promises to her.
How could you, Alex, give the beautiful name I chose for our child to that woman's bastard child?
You truly are cold-blooded and heartless.
My hand slipped. With a splash, the baby fell into the basin, choking and wailing instantly.
Daisy completely lost it. She snatched the baby, screaming "Baby, baby!" and bolted out of the bathroom.
Alex returned quickly. Seeing Daisy trembling and clutching the baby, her face etched with pain, he immediately rushed to put his arm around her.
But then he saw me walking out of the bathroom with a mocking smirk, and he quickly dropped his hand.
"Nancy, how could you be so careless? You were giving him a bath, and you let him fall into the water? How can you be a mother like this? If you can't handle it, let Daisy take care of him. She's more attentive."
I stared at Alex's furious face, tossing the towel aside. My voice was chilling.
"Alex, this child isn't even mine biologically. If I don't personally raise him, how could I ever develop any affection for him?"
I cast a scornful glance at Daisy.
Go ahead, throw a tantrum now. I bet Alex and Daisy wouldn't dare. My family's freely provided patents and massive funding? He wouldn't give that up.
We'd signed an agreement back during our engagement: if he ever betrayed me, the Davies family could withdraw funding and reclaim patent usage rights at any time, with all profits going to me.
Alex frowned at me, his eyes filled with disgust. He was about to speak when Daisy shrieked.
"Alex, look at Star, what's wrong with him? His forehead is burning hot!"
Only then did I notice the baby's face was beet red, his body convulsing.
Alex's expression turned to panic. He no longer cared about arguing with me. He rushed out, clutching Daisy and the baby. His urgent shouts echoed in the yard.
"Robert, get the car ready, quick! The little master is sick, we need to get to the hospital immediately!"
The engine roared, then a thick plume of exhaust rose as the car sped away, a clear sign of the driver's desperation.
I leisurely smoothed my hair, changed into a fresh outfit, and drove my Cullinan towards my parents' home.
My brother, Andrew, was surprised to see me.
"Well, look who it is, the busiest woman in the city! What brings you home, trying to steal one of my deals?"
I silently walked to the sofa and sank into it, then rubbed my throbbing forehead.
Just a few days had felt like more than everything I'd experienced in my previous twenty years combined.
Dad also came out. Seeing my pale face, he immediately asked what was wrong.
Rubbing my forehead, I recounted how Alex had tricked me into being child-free, cheated on me with the student I sponsored, and fathered a love child.
My father immediately flew into a rage, ready to confront Alex and demand an explanation from his father.
I quickly stopped my furious father and called back my brother.
"Dad, Andy, what good would it do to teach him a lesson? He'd just cry and apologize. Even if I didn't forgive him and divorced him, he'd still be the high-and-mighty CEO of Thorne Corporation. But how would that mend the hurt he's caused me?"
Dad and Andy looked at me, perplexed.
"Nancy, you've always been strong-willed. Tell us your plan. Dad will support you no matter what."
Andy nodded gravely.
I smiled, gratified.
I wasn't some disfavored girl like Daisy. I was my parents' and brother's cherished princess.
The shares of Davies Group had always been split evenly between me and Andy; I had just always let him manage them.
I opened my phone and showed Dad the video recorded by the hidden camera.
On our wedding anniversary, the day I discovered Alex's betrayal, I decisively swapped the custom watch I'd bought him for a pair of diamond cufflinks embedded with a tiny camera.
That very evening, I clasped them onto his wrist, telling him they symbolized me always being his right-hand woman, and warning him not to take them off, or else it meant he despised me.
Alex, feeling guilty, naturally wore them obediently.
In the video, Alex was driving wildly, while Daisy sobbed beside him.
"Alex, I don't want to give our baby to that evil woman! She's deliberately trying to hurt him!"
"She can't have children herself, so she's twisted. If you make me give our baby to her again, I'll take him and leave!"
Alex's grim voice cut through.
"Daisy, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to our baby. I'm going to create some issues with the overseas project and send her abroad to deal with it. Then you can openly bring up the baby at home."
Daisy continued to sob, pressing her face tightly against the baby, speaking in anguish.
"So what? At most, she'll be gone for six months, a few months. She'll still come back, won't she? Then she'll still be able to mistreat the baby however she wants!"
She clutched Alex's arm tightly, crying piteously.
"Alex, this is your only child! You can't just watch that evil woman harm him, can you?"
Alex didn't speak for a long time. Then, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes, and he slowly said,
"Daisy, just give me a little more time. I'll make Nancy leave with nothing. Then we'll be a complete family."
The car arrived at the hospital. I couldn't bear to watch their affectionate display any longer and clicked stop.
"Dad, since he's heartless, we don't need to be honorable either. Let's make Alex lose his reputation and everything he has. That would truly do justice to his meticulous scheming."
With that, I transferred the hidden camera footage to my father's and brother's phones, allowing them to monitor Alex's every move.
Alex wouldn't disappoint me. But the harder he schemed, the harder he would fall.
Sure enough, the next day, Alex apologized, telling me there were issues with an overseas project and asking me to handle it.
I pretended ignorance, quickly packed my bags, and flew abroad, giving him ample room to make his move.
I leisurely dealt with the problems, watching videos of Alex and Daisy frolicking in my bed, seeing their disgraceful traces left from the living room to the bathroom, watching them laughing with their son, a happy, sweet family of three.
Of course, I also saw what I wanted to see.
A month later, on the Thorne Corporation's anniversary, Dad called to inform me.
"Nancy, you can come back now. All the evidence has been collected."
