My husband cheated on me, and his mistress came to my department for prenatal care while pregnant.
I’m an obstetrician-gynecologist, working day and night shifts. My schedule is packed with surgeries every day, and sometimes I’m called in for emergencies at a moment’s notice. I’d say I live up to the title of “angel in white.”
My husband, Chen Bin, and I have been married for five years without having children. For the first three years, we wanted to enjoy life as a couple. We only started trying for a baby two years ago, but nothing has happened yet.
My husband isn’t worried. He’s always reassured me, telling me not to work so hard and to get more rest.
All these years, he’s been mild-mannered and easygoing. He never complains, no matter how busy I am, and he treats me well. He may not be perfect, but he’s good enough. I thought I’d married the right man.
Then one day, a young woman came to my department for an examination.
She had very fair skin and long hair, and looked like she took excellent care of herself. Her clothes and handbag made it clear she came from a well-off family.
I gave her a routine ultrasound and saw that her fetus had already developed limbs. She had to be more than three months pregnant.
