While taking a walk in the neighborhood, I unexpectedly saw Wendy talking to the neighbors.

I quietly walked to them and heard her sigh.

"It was so cold at night, so I complained a bit, yet Georgia actually told me to go sleep with a dog.

"Keith spoke up for me, and we got kicked out in the middle of the night."

The neighbors were indignant.

"Georgia is so selfish!"

"She occupies the big house and throws you all into the old shabby one. Doesn't she have a conscience at all?"

Upon hearing this, Wendy looked hesitant.

"Someone told me before that they saw Georgia being intimate with a man at night...

"It can't be true... Can it?"

Hearing that, those people were gossipy. Everyone gathered together and whispered.

"Did she kick you out so that she could be with that man without you disturbing them?"

"Georgia cheated on Keith and mistreated you. She should be punished!"

They made it sound like I indeed had an affair.

I didn't expect Wendy to be so malicious, and I walked toward them with a cold face.

"Those who spread rumors about their daughter-in-law having an affair should also be punished. Don't you think?

"Who said I was having an affair? Tell him or her to be here to confront me!"

Wendy was startled and said, feeling guilty.

"Georgia, don't be mad. If you don't want to see me, I'll leave right away..."

She started to play the victim again!

She started the whole thing, but once she cried, it became my fault.

Our neighbor, Harvey Blake, chimed in.

"We didn't mean anything. Don't make a big deal out of it."

I said to him with a smile.

"Harvey, what were you doing with Hazel in the hotel last time?"

Hazel Wolfe was also one of our neighbors. Harvey's face turned red, and he pointed at me, cursing me, saying that I was full of shit!

"I didn't mean anything. Don't make a big deal out of it, Harvey."

I repeated what he said. His expression changed a few times, and he didn't say another word.

See? Villains ought to be punished.

Wendy stopped talking and left in a hurry.

I stared at her back and noticed that she kept looking back as she walked, as if afraid of being seen.

I followed her when she wasn't looking and saw a man riding a bike to pick her up, and he affectionately touched her belly.

I guessed he was the father of her child.

I followed all the way to Wendy's old and shabby house.

I asked the neighbors, and they all said that the man was a gambler, addicted to gambling when he was young, and now he was penniless.

Why not take advantage of such a man with such a character?

I pondered on a plan and quickly returned home.

When I opened the door, I saw that Keith's shoes were scattered messily at the entrance.

When he heard the sound of me opening the door, he swaggered out.

"Well, well. Where have you been? You're pregnant, OK? Spend more time at home. You didn't even clean.

"You're pregnant for months, and if I didn't come back, no one would be taking care of you. I came back for your sake!"

I was disgusted by him. He was so shameless!

He couldn't bear to live at Wendy's old and shabby house and moved back, yet he claimed it was for me.

When he saw that I was not speaking, he confidently said.

"You think I want to come back? Vivian..."

He suddenly realized that he said something wrong and quickly rephrased it.

"Others feel sorry for me. What about you? You selfishly occupy the big house all by yourself."

Others? He means his mistress, Vivian Patton!

Seems Vivian doesn't know that this house is my pre-marital property and wants to fight for it.

"Besides, Mom says this is also my house. Why couldn't I come back?

"She persuaded me to reconcile with you while she suffered in that poor house alone. You are so cruel!"

I was amused. He dared to accuse me?

"You're so shameless! Your house? This is my house!

"I can share it with whoever I want. You take care of me? When? I always take care of you!

He said Wendy suffered in that poor house alone? She wanted to be with her man!

But I wasn't gonna tell Keith now. I was looking forward to seeing a good show.

"What are you talking about? We are married. What's yours is mine!

"You don't wanna wait on me? Fine! I'll find someone else to do that easily! Any woman is more obedient than you!

"Go and tidy up the guest room. You will sleep there tonight."

He didn't give me a chance to say no and went straight into the master bedroom.

I no longer stopped him. With him staying here, Wendy could give birth without anyone standing in her way.
