My Wife's Affair Baby's First Celebration: A Cuckolded Husband's Confrontation Chapter 2

Before I could figure out what was going on, my wife sent me a message.

"Honey, I'm going to a classmate's baby's one-month celebration tomorrow, so I might not be able to reply to messages promptly. As soon as it's over, I'll video call you. If only you were by my side, I wouldn't have to go alone. I miss you so much, darling!"

Reading my wife's words on the phone screen, I felt like I'd been struck by lightning.

How could this be such a coincidence? After thinking for a moment, I still asked:

"Which classmate?"

"You probably wouldn't know even if I told you. I see the weather's getting colder abroad. Remember to dress warmly, don't let yourself get sick. I'd be heartbroken!"

I had gone abroad a year ago to develop overseas business.

My wife and I had been married for five years, but we were still as lovey-dovey as newlyweds.

Especially during my time abroad, we video called every day without fail.

Her gentleness and care always surrounded me, warming my heart.

So I worked day and night, and the project finally got on track.

That's why I came back early without telling my wife, wanting to go to our empty villa in the city center to prepare a surprise for her.

I didn't expect her to give me a big surprise first!

Just as I was about to send a message questioning her, I heard a commotion outside.

I walked out of the room and stood at the edge of the third floor, coldly observing everything below.

The originally quiet first-floor hall was now filled with balloons and streamers. In the center was a huge standing photo.

The happy family of three in the picture was none other than my wife, Jack, and their child!

Jack wore a low-key but luxurious white sweater and casual pants, looking every bit the gentle husband.

His face radiated undisguised joy as he stood at the entrance greeting guests.

The faces coming and going were all familiar.

"Jack really lives up to being the school heartthrob back then. Not only did he marry a wife as beautiful as an angel, even his child's one-month celebration is so grand!"

"Yeah, his wife's father is a real estate tycoon. If it weren't for Jack, no matter how hard we tried, our kids could never get into that elite school!"

"Exactly! Look at this villa! Prime location and so magnificent. If it weren't for Jack, we'd probably never see such a place in our lives. And the rich beauty actively pursued Jack. Our Jack is just too capable!"

In the crowd, I immediately spotted our former year head teacher. Back then, he looked down on Jack's rebellious personality and especially disliked him. Now he was bent over slightly, his face full of flattery.

"Little Jack, although the teacher was strict with you back then, it was only because I saw early on that you had a bright future. Others wanted me to manage them, but I couldn't be bothered!"

"Now that you've made it big, the teacher is very gratified. The teacher has a relative with a child who's about to start school..."

The teacher slipped a red envelope into Jack's arms, his meaning clear.

Jack accepted it as if it was his due.

He held his head high, full of pride, but still pretended to be polite:

"No need for this. It's all good, all good."

Seeing his pretentious manner, I sneered.

My wife used to be obsessed with cosmetic procedures and plastic surgery, running to beauty clinics every few days.

Later she even wanted to change her entire face. I was so scared that I quickly found her things to do, letting her manage the city's real estate projects. I didn't expect her to make money, just wanted to distract her attention.

As a result, now all this glory and capital had become a demonstration of Jack's capabilities!

Someone coughed, and after an exchange of glances, everyone turned their gaze to me, full of mockery.

Jack's former lackey jumped out first, pointing at me with a sneer.

"Ryan, you don't think wearing pajamas and standing there will make us believe you're the owner of this place, do you?"

"You pretended to be rich in the group chat earlier, and now that you know Jack borrowed this place for the celebration, you immediately rented a villa here? How come you weren't this quick when you used to run errands for Jack back then?"

Others chimed in.

"Someone who doesn't even come to classmate gatherings where we split the bill, now goes to such lengths just to show off once. Don't let your wife divorce you over this later!"

"What, you think wearing nice pajamas makes this villa yours? Why don't you say Jack's rich beauty wife is yours too, and those billion-dollar properties are yours as well?"

"Must be mentally ill. What normal person would do this? I get it - definitely jealous of Jack and angry at his own incompetence. Mental illness is showing!"

Hearing their words, I calmly stated the facts.

"Indeed, it's all mine."

Piercing laughter immediately erupted from the crowd. But Jack looked furious. He pointed at me, gritting his teeth.

"You really dare to claim it!"

"I've caught you now, you must be that mistress!"

"Take off those pajamas right now, they were bought by MY wife for ME!"

"Looks like you still haven't learned your lesson from school. A shameless mistress actually dares to come to my wife's house and act big!"
