I had planned a surprise getaway for Daniel at our summer cabin, hoping it would reignite the love between us. But instead of warmth and romance, I discovered a smudge of lipstick on a coffee

mug and a lavender T-shirt that wasn’t mine. Then, near the fireplace, my eyes caught a half-burned envelope it was a DNA test with Daniel’s name on it, and my heart sank.

I stayed there, torn between anger and heartbreak, until a woman appeared as if she owned the place. She introduced herself as Jessica, claiming Daniel was not only her husband but the father of

her son. She flaunted lies and pictures, trying to shatter every bit of trust I had left. Her cruel words about children stabbed at me, but I held my silence, too stunned to respond.

Later, back at home and feeling broken, I found out I was pregnant. I kept it to myself, knowing I needed solid proof before confronting Daniel. The next morning, I acted calm and followed him

back to the cabin. There, I overheard a tense conversation Daniel firmly telling Jessica her son wasn’t his and accusing her of blackmailing him to try and destroy our lives.

Daniel confessed he’d taken a genuine DNA test, which came back negative, and that he had asked Jessica to leave. She was trying to ruin us out of bitterness. As she stormed out, she threw one

last cruel remark: “Good luck, Mommy.” But Daniel saw the truth in my eyes I was pregnant. In the quiet that followed,

I broke the silence with the words we both needed to hear: “Let’s start over, for the baby.”
