My Perfect Marriage Was His Perfect Crime novel Chapter 49

Evening.

I had just washed some fruit and was curled up on the couch, eating while scrolling through my phone.

On my homepage, there was a new post.

[Excited! Just the thought of teaching that bitch a lesson in front of everyone next month makes me so excited I can't sleep.]

Curiosity got the better of me, so I clicked on the post.

Everyone has a gossiping side.

The poster said she had been with her ex-boyfriend since high school. They had always been very close, inseparable, and sweet enough to make others envious. Until a year ago, when they had a fight and broke up, a woman

swooped in and stole her boyfriend.

Some people rationally analyzed that since they had already broken up, her ex's future choices had nothing to do with her.

If she wanted to lash out, it should be at the man who seamlessly replaced her.

She immediately exploded in the comments.

[If she hadn't seduced him, my boyfriend would never have been with her.]

[My boyfriend is a one-in-a-million good man, someone you'd have to search high and low for.]

[What do you mean by "seamless replacement"? It was that woman who shamelessly pursued him!]

[Is there something wrong with loving someone?]

I stared at the poster's over-the-top comments, not sure if she was being serious or just trying to gain attention.

I shook my head.

I popped a piece of fruit into my mouth and was about to exit.

But my finger, wet with juice, accidentally tapped on the poster's list of followers.

When I saw the only person she was following,

I froze.

It was my fiance, Zack's account.

I couldn't believe it, so I clicked again to double-check.

This was indeed Zack's account.

There were even pictures of the two of us from when we had first gotten together.

I quickly went back to the post and read through it again.

Someone in the comment section had also noticed the follow list.

[Hey, that fat, bald man—could he be the so-called "perfect man" you were talking about? /covering mouth laughing emoji/]

Since it was a new post,

there weren't many comments yet.

She replied to each one immediately.

But she didn't respond to this one.

As soon as he walked in, he hurried over to me, his face full of concern, and looked at me anxiously.

[Honey, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?]

Seeing him like that, my anger seemed to dissipate a little.

I stared at him, expressionless, and asked,

[Are you hiding something from me?]

Zack's eyes flickered for a moment, and he bit his lip before looking down and muttering,

[Honey, you know?]

My heart skipped a beat.

So he really was hiding something from me.

After a pause, he pulled a small box from his bag and handed it to me.

It was from a well-known small brand.

Zack scratched his head awkwardly,

[Honey, this is something I bought with my savings… It wasn't very expensive because I only saved up enough for this…]

He looked at me, waiting for my reaction.

I couldn't help but laugh.

My irritation melted away in an instant.
