I Lost My Job Only to Discover My Husband’s Mistress Was Behind It All — Story of the Day

I was fired for plagiarizing a project I had worked on for nearly a year. Shockingly, I discovered my husband was behind the betrayal, doing it for a woman who meant more to him than I ever knew. Fueled by a desire for revenge, I devised a plan.

On my last day at the office, I hosted a farewell party, inviting everyone including my husband and his mistress, Callie. During my speech, I unveiled my true project—the one I had been quietly building all along. The room was stunned as I showcased the genuine work that had been stolen from me.

Then, I revealed a cake with a photo of Harris and Callie, labeled “THEY STOLE MY LIFE.” The room fell silent, and Mr. Thornton, taken aback, offered me a promotion to return. I declined, choosing instead to move forward with my new project and investor support.

I filed for divorce from Harris and took a vacation to heal. As the plane took off, I felt a newfound freedom, ready to face the world stronger than ever.
