Chapter 5 I put on my innocent act , letting the tears fall : " You're that blogger I was fighting with online !" [ ] I acted like I'd finally recognized her , holding up the photo Lila had taken of Jasper's hand and comparing it to the real Jasper lying right there in the hospital bed . [] " So your husband is my husband ?!" ] " So , " I choked up through my tears , " Jasper ! You've been hiding another woman from me ! You're her husband - then what the hell am I ?! " || Truth was , I'd planned this whole thing out with Emma beforehand . All I had to do was play innocent while ripping off this band - aid . I wanted Jasper and his side chick to be completely destroyed - anyone who betrays trust deserves to be dragged through the mud . But standing there , I couldn't tell if my tears were real or fake anymore . Even my accusations had a genuine tremor in them . ] " Jaspert " " You better explain this to me! " [ ] The livestream viewer count was skyrocketing In just a few minutes , it went from thousands to tens of thousands , and now hundreds of thousands were watching me catch my husband red - handed . Comments flooded in with people calling Jasper a cheating scumbag and Lila a shameless homewrecker . [ ] Jasper's face went white seeing my tears , and he instinctively tried to get out of bed . ] " Babe . " He didn't care about the IV needle in his hand , yanking it out as he tried to stand . " Let me explain , don't cry . " Jasper always said my tears were what mattered most to him . ] He used to tell me : " Babe , from now on I only want to see you cry happy tears , never because you're sad . " ] Now , with tears streaming down my face , he was walking toward me barefoot : " Babe , please don't cry . " ] Lila grabbed his arm : " She's livestreaming !

" If you go to her , I become the homewrecker in front of all of them . " Jasper stopped in his tracks , staring rigidly at the climbing viewer count , then looked at me in disbelief . ] " Vera . " ] my name in forever . ] He hadn't called me by my From the day we got married until now , he never used my name - even at the office , he'd call me " babe . " But now , because of a side piece , he was calling me by my name and standing just a few steps away , looking at me like I was a complete stranger . " You did this on purpose ? " We'd been together so long that we could read each other's thoughts from a single look or gesture . He moved to shield Lila's face , his voice losing all that earlier warmth and turning cold . ] " Turn off the livestream first . " ] " If there's something to discuss , we can talk it through . " ]] " Turn off the livestream first , " Jasper pointed at my phone . " We don't air dirty and public , Vera . Do you want the whole world laughing at us ? "
