Betrayed by the Depressed novel Chapter 7

Once a plan is set in motion, there’s no turning back—she brought all of this on

herself. From the day she cheated, she should have anticipated this outcome and had

no one else to blame.

Margaret even showed up later, blocking me every day at work and home, pleading

that Lily had realized her mistakes, had broken up with Karen, and asking if I could

give her another chance. Annoyed by the constant interruptions, I instructed security

to refuse them entry from now on.

This action completely enraged Lily. She glared at me, her face twisted with fury:

"Fine, fine! Tyler, you're pushing me to this point, and I swear I won't let you off the

hook!"

Then she left.

Since then, there were no more updates from Lily. I didn’t take her threats seriously;

it was just an empty threat.

However, four months later, she returned, flaunting a large belly and a high-and￾mighty attitude. She insisted that the child was mine, kneeling with Margaret at the

entrance of the neighborhood, dramatically crying. Time had dulled memories, and

everyone had completely forgotten the protagonist of the affair from four months

ago. I was now seen as the heartless villain who abandoned his wife.

When she saw me, her crying intensified: "Tyler... you’re finally back! I can’t go on

like this, look how big our child has grown!"

I could tell she was even more unstable now, and she had forgotten how long it had

been since we had been intimate. Seeing her rounded belly, I smirked slightly: "Miss

Lily, don’t speak carelessly! We’ve been divorced for quite some time. How can you

bring this dubious child and try to pin it on me?"

She was visibly flustered, shaking her head in denial, while Margaret, more

perceptive, began to cry out: "Look at this, my son-in-law has become successful and

turned his back on us. They divorced just four months ago, and this child is already

five months old—who else could it be if not his?"

Seeing the crowd’s murmurs and pointing, I remained calm: "That’s not how it works.
