The Betrayed Wife's Comeback

Mark was back, living in the guest room, but our house felt colder than ever, a hollow shell of a marriage.

Our new normal was suffocating, filled with his dismissive anger and my quiet ache of betrayal.

My blood ran cold.

Inside were two years of intimate messages, saccharine poems, and their grotesque plans for a shared future that meticulously excluded me.

He wrote about our "stifling" marriage, about my "lack of understanding" for his so-called "artistic temperament."
