That night, Harry Lee didn’t come home.
Because Vivian Chow claimed the fetal movement was strong, he immediately made
excuses to be with her.
After four years of dating and three years of marriage, I always believed Harry Lee loved me.
That was until Vivian Chow returned, until she became pregnant with another man’s child.
Suddenly, everything seemed to change.
My husband, who once seemed to love me, now dedicates himself to caring for another
woman.
I’m trapped in this dark and hopeless cage.
Little by little, all my love for him is eroding.
Disappointment accumulated until it vanished completely.
So, it’s time for me to leave.
The next day was my birthday party. Harry Lee insisted on picking me up himself, calling several times to hurry me along.
But when I went outside, only the bodyguard’s car was waiting.
“Tracy, something’s come up. I need to take care of it.”
“Go ahead, I’ll join you shortly.”
Having had no hope to begin with, there’s no room for disappointment.
The frigid winter wind scraped my cheeks like a scythe.
Yet I felt no pain.
Just like my feelings for Harry Lee.
From disappointment to despair, no pain can touch me now.
The car pulled up in front of a clubhouse.
I frowned, but got out of the car nonetheless.
The bodyguard led me into a private room.
But I don’t know anyone inside.
Their strange gazes seemed to pierce right through me, filled with mockery and disdain.
It was as if I were garbage, and they were avoiding me from afar.
“She cheated on Harry, and she still has the nerve to let him celebrate her birthday.”
“Poor Harry, he’s even allowing her to keep that bastard.”
“I don’t know what Harry sees in her; she’s not even in Vivian’s league.”
They spoke loudly, deliberately so I would hear.
See, this is Harry Lee’s masterpiece.
He couldn’t bear to watch Vivian Chow face her parents‘ accusations.
But he never considered the pain I’ve endured because of them,
which is a thousand times greater than Vivian Chow’s.

I could disregard my own feelings, but I can’t bear the thought of my child being universally condemned.

I could disregard my own feelings, but I can’t bear the thought of my child being universally
condemned.
I stood up, intending to leave.
Anyway, it seems this birthday party doesn’t welcome me.
But as I opened the private room door, I saw Harry Lee and Vivian Chow standing there. One guiltily avoided eye contact, while the other wore a triumphant smile.
I knew they were at the door and had heard everything.
I overheard the people in the private room insulting me.
I overheard the people in the private room mocking me.
But he said nothing, simply allowing Vivian Chow to pull me back inside.
“So the birthday star arrived before me. It’s my fault; it’s just inconvenient to move around with this belly.”
“Harry was worried I wouldn’t be comfortable in another car, so he insisted on picking me

up.”
Vivian proudly stroked her stomach, then glanced at my belly.
As if to say, ‘You’re pregnant too, but so what?‘
Her words were met with cheers and jeers from the others.
“Harry has always favored Vivian, ever since they were children.”
“So, when your baby is born, will wedding bells be ringing?”
“Don’t forget to invite us to the wedding!”
Amidst the congratulations, they seemed to forget that I am still Harry Lee’s wife.
They also seemed to forget that this isn’t an engagement party.
It’s just a birthday party Harry threw for me out of guilt.
Looking at their faces, I felt a wave of nausea.
I started to get up to leave, but somehow caught Harry Lee’s attention.
He frowned at me and said coldly:
“This is your birthday party; what would it look like if you left?”
“It’s just morning sickness; bear with it.”
But the next second, Vivian Chow also gagged.
He immediately helped her sit down, nervously taking a preserved plum from his pocket.
He personally tore open the wrapper and fed it to her.
The sound of cheering and teasing erupted around them again.
I closed my eyes tightly.
My birthday party had become a backdrop for their public display of affection.
They acted like a real couple,
Chatting and laughing with their mutual friends.
And I was simply forgotten in a corner.
He didn’t even bother to prepare a cake to mark my birthday.
How absurd and laughable.
This is the birthday banquet Harry Lee arranged for me.
I forcibly held back my tears, swallowing all the bitterness down.
I really should offer my congratulations, Harry Lee.
Because in just two days.
I will be gone from your life completely.
The position of Mrs. Lee, let me relinquish it to the one you truly care about.
