My Husband Chose a Vacation Over Me After My Stroke—The Surprise on His Return Was Priceless
Three days before our Maldives anniversary trip, I suffered a stroke, leaving half my body weak and speech slurred. From my hospital bed, I expected my husband Jeff’s support after 25 years of marriage—standing by him through layoffs and failures. Instead, he called from the airport: “Postponing costs too much. I’m going with my brother.” He hung up.
Devastated, I turned to my niece Ava—young, loyal, and determined. She vowed to help me recover and uncover Jeff’s secrets. As I endured intense therapy, Ava investigated.
Jeff returned tanned, but not with his brother—with his secretary, Mia. The betrayal crushed me. No tears this time. With Ava’s evidence and a sharp lawyer, I filed for divorce, securing our home and assets I’d built.
Served papers, Jeff begged. I replied: “You chose your paradise. Now I’m choosing mine.”
Today, from a sunlit Greek terrace, the sea sparkles, Ava laughs beside me. I’m free. The best revenge? Reclaiming your life, proving you’re stronger than the one who abandoned you.
