My husband asked for a paternity test after I gave birth — he was “shocked” when he read the results. After I delivered our baby girl, Sarah, five weeks ago, I expected happiness. Alex and I had dreamed of this for two years. But when she was born, his expression changed everything for me.
But as the days went by, one day I started processing the fact that my husband seemed disappointed that I hadn’t cheated on him. Contemplating that he might be the one being unfaithful, I decided to cover my basis.
That night while he snored happily while sleeping, I took and unlocked his phone and found something I hadn’t expected. There were messages between him and a female colleague.

In the texts, he claimed he’d leave me for her soon and I knew there was no going back for us. I took screenshots of the messages and that morning while Alex went to work, I called a lawyer and filed for divorce.
By the time he got home that evening, I was long gone. I stayed with Emily while the divorce proceedings happened and of course, Alex tried denying the infidelity but I had proof. In the settlement, I received the house, our car, and significant child support.
