My Husband’s Mistress Showed Up With Moving Boxes To My Own House. She Thought He Successfully Stole My Deed. Should I Tell Her The Truth Before She Unpacks?

Update Three: The Confrontation

I know it’s been a few months, and I apologize for the delay, so I’ll get straight to what happened with Alex and Cassie. Two days after my last update, Cassie arrived at my house with a bunch of her things.

“Cassie, what’s going on?” I asked her.

She calmly replied that she was moving in. I acted a little confused, and she just laughed, telling me the house was no longer mine and that she would now be the permanent resident. I told her to stop acting, and she had the audacity to tell me to call Alex.

Before I could, Alex came home from running some errands and looked a bit surprised to see Cassie there. I think this wasn’t part of their plan, at least not yet, but since the secret was out, Alex told me he was kicking me out and that Cassie was moving in. He put on this sad guy act, explaining that he was leaving me for her.

I laughed in his face. I told him to stop acting because I’d known what was going on all along. He’d been a fool to believe me, just as I had been foolish to believe in him.

Then I called everyone. Within minutes, my parents, my in-laws, and Cassie’s parents arrived at the house. Alex and Cassie were shocked to see them there and even more surprised to find out that everyone knew about their little plan.

My father-in-law immediately slapped Alex across the face, telling him he wasn’t the son he had raised. Cassie’s mother did the same, asking how she could betray someone who was like a sister to her.

Cassie got defensive and said that she and Alex were going to live together and that there was nothing anyone could do about it. That’s when I dropped the bombshell. I laughed and told her the house was still mine. I had never given it to Alex.

The color drained from her face. Alex immediately realized I had tricked him. He started begging for forgiveness, but I slapped him and threw him out. Cassie left on her own after realizing she might face the same fate.

It felt so good to give them a taste of their own medicine: lies and betrayal. I know some people might not approve of my revenge and say I should have just confronted them, but now I not only have my revenge, but I also have proof of their infidelity, which will ensure Alex gets nothing in the divorce, and neither will Cassie.

Update Four: The Aftermath

I don’t know how many months it’s been since my update about the revenge on my ex-husband and ex-friend, but it’s been long enough for everything to be over. After that, everything fell apart for them both. It was like a series of unfortunate events.

Alex was kicked out of his parents’ house, where he’d been staying for a few weeks, and his parents disinherited him. They initially accepted him because he was their son, but after seeing that he was still with Cassie despite everything he had caused, his parents took extreme measures.

As for me, I divorced him, and he got nothing. It’s great to live in a state where cheaters pay—or rather, where their spouses don’t have to pay. When he realized he wouldn’t get anything, he came back several times begging for help. He claimed he had left Cassie, but I told him I didn’t care anymore and that I would call the police if he showed up again.

As for Cassie, she lost her job. It turns out she worked for her uncle, and when he found out what she had done, he fired her. Her parents also disowned her, and when she kept begging them for help, they told her they would only forgive her if I did. She didn’t come to apologize to me, but she didn’t need to; for me to feel better, knowing her life is miserable now is enough for me.

I guess they should have thought about what they were doing when they were plotting behind my back. They only came asking for help when everything fell apart. Now I want to respond to a comment I received that made me angry because of how absurd it was. The comment said:

“I think you went too far with this. Yes, your husband and the jealous friend deserved what happened to them, but you shouldn’t have done it. You should have been the bigger person and let them live happily. I’m not saying you should have given them the house, but you could have just kicked him out and divorced him. That way he could have married her and made a life together. If the jealous friend really loved him, which I doubt. By doing what you did, you lowered yourself to their level. Does that make you a better or worse person than them?”

I think it’s an interesting point, and some people agreed with it. However, the majority said I didn’t lower myself to their level at all. None of this would have happened if Alex hadn’t been a cheater trying to trick me into giving him the house. I only reacted to what they did to me. I wasn’t the one who started all this. So what do you think? Does this make me the same as them or not?
