When we got to the office, Lily greeted every colleague with her usual sweet tone.
They all kept telling me how lucky I was to have such a stunning wife.
I let out a cold chuckle and shook my head, not bothering to respond. Luck? More
like a curse.
Before long, Karen showed up. She's the assistant manager, just one level below me.
The two of them exchanged sly glances like I was invisible.
"Karen, is something wrong with your eye? You keep blinking," I said, feigning
innocence.
I watched as his expression cracked just a little. She forced a smile. "No... no, it's just
some dust from the walk over."
I nodded, pretending to understand. "Ah, I see. You know, the company pays you well
enough, but you're still biking to work? No woman's going to be impressed by that,
right, honey?"
Lily froze, unsure whether to agree or not.
Karen quickly tried to smooth things over. "Tyler, you're absolutely right...
absolutely."
I couldn't be bothered with these two cheaters, so I headed to my office to start the
day.
At lunch, I ordered Lily some plain congee and vegetables while I enjoyed a hearty
meal of meat and fish. I told her it was because she was sick and needed to eat light.
All she could do was watch.
After eating, I pulled out a bunch of pill bottles from my bag. "Time for your meds,
darling."
I carefully measured out the doses, lining up over twenty pills in front of her.Should I
call her smart or foolish? To gain sympathy, she brought back an entire bag of meds
without thinking it through, and now she's trapped by her own actions.
Her expression turned uneasy. "Just... just leave them there. I'll take them later!"
But there was no way I was letting her off that easily. I brought the pills right up to
her. "Come on, don't be stubborn. Take your medicine."
As I moved to put the pills in her mouth, she suddenly snapped, swatting my hand
away, sending the pills scattering all over the floor.
I quietly pressed the record button on my phone. How shameless.
But go ahead, laugh while you can.
Starting today, I'll make sure you never laugh again!
Half an hour later, Lily returned, her face flushed in a way that left no doubt about
what those two had been up to.
"Your lips... why are they swollen?" I asked.
She froze, guilt flashing across her face as she pulled out a compact mirror. "Are
they? Maybe it's just a cold sore or something."
I nodded indifferently, not saying anything more.
From then on, I made sure to give her the pills on schedule every day. I wanted to see
how long she could keep this up! Even a healthy person would get sick taking that
many pills.
She started to catch on and changed tactics. She handed me another doctor's note,
claiming her condition had worsened, looking all frantic: "Honey, you're not going to
abandon me, are you?"
