    My husband thought I was broke, so he immediately got close to my nemesis and showed off the money she made in one year, which I would never make in ten lifetimes.

My husband kicked me away: "I got married just for your money. I have never loved you. Don't stop me from hugging the lap of a rich woman." I slapped her twice decisively. You love to pretend, right?
