Your husband is so wild in bed!
On the eve of my childbirth,
I received a provocative video from my husband's mistress,
flaunting their affair.
In the video,
my supposedly loyal husband,
Max Jennings, and his mistress were entangled in a hotel bed,
exchanging dirty talk and engaging in various positions.
The shock of it all triggered premature labor,
I used to believe with certainty that while any man in the world might cheat,
my Max never would!
Max, who was two years ahead of me in college,
caught my eye during freshman orientation and it was love at first sight.
Even after we got together,
Max's thoughtfulness and devotion never wavered.
I felt like a pampered princess,
and he promised a lifetime of gentle companionship and attentive care.
Max came from a humble rural background
Despite the fact that I originated from an affluent family
I did not reject his proposal because of the difference between our family backgrounds
my father was the principal of our school.
He didn't approve of max and I at first
but a car accident took my parents' lives
Max and I were married three months later.
Just in our second year of marriage, he strayed.
To make matters worse,
it happened while I was pregnant with our child.
Perhaps sensing my turmoil, the baby kicked against my belly repeatedly, as if trying to calm my emotions.
With each kick, my agitation only grew,
tears flowing incessantly like a broken faucet.
Around six in the morning,
my mother in law burst into the room, her voice filled with irritation.
Jen, it's already past six, and you're still lying around!
Do you want to starve me?
I was completely surprised and couldn't understand why my mother in law had changed so drastically.
Had I done something to upset her?
But today, I really wasn't feeling well.
I couldn't resist her strength as she pulled me up from the bed.
But as soon as I stood up, I felt a warm gush between my legs.
I cried out in fear, my voice trembling,
Mom, my water broke!
At that moment, I instinctively held my breath
squeezed my legs together
but the amniotic fluid kept flowing uncontrollably.
What's there to cry for when you're in labor?
Don't you know crying brings bad luck?
I felt abandoned by both my mother in law and likely Max,
who was probably cosying up with his mistress in some hotel.
I reached for my phone on the bedside table with the intention to call 911 for an ambulance.
But before I could dial, my mother in law snatched the phone away and ended the call.
She pocketed the phone, glaring fiercely at me.
You think calling 911 is free, you wasteful woman?
I pleaded, Mom, I'll pay for the ambulance.
Give me the phone!
But my mother in law retorted
You pay? Isn't all your money still my son's?
Today, I won't let you waste my son's hard-earned money!
Just give birth at home, shout a few times, and it'll be over.
Why go to the hospital?
I had always assumed she was simply uneducated and stubbornly traditional, but I never imagined she would go this far!
I was utterly stunned!
She took my phone
However, I couldn't just sit around waiting for help.
I prepared to go downstairs to catch a cab to the hospital.
But as soon as I reached the ground floor,
excruciating pain surged through my stomach,
rendering me unable to walk.
eventually collapsing on the ground
When I woke up,
I found myself in the hospital,
still feeling dazed and confused.
The nurse informed me that a neighbor who was out jogging in the morning had come to my rescue.
We must do the surgery now!" the doctor explained urgently.
Women giving birth is just like a hen laying an egg.
What's so special about it?
There's no such thing as painless childbirth for women!
My mother in law turned to me with a fierce glare
I couldn't bear it anymore.
Having a baby is my own business.
I'll have one! It's none of your concern!
My mother in law turned around, glaring fiercely at me.
For a useless baby girl,
who gave you the right to waste five thousands on surgery?
Suddenly, it all became clear to me:
Why did my mother-in-law's attitude towards me completely change after I had the prenatal examination?
