My 5-Year-Old Was Always Whining Around My New Husband — When I Asked Why, He Whispered, ‘He Said I’m a Problem’

“Do you know anyone he actually works with? Have you met any of his coworkers?”

I opened my mouth to answer, but no words came. The truth was, I hadn’t.

I had never been to his office or met any of his colleagues.

“Alice, something isn’t right,” Mom said. “You need to check.”

I sighed, shaking my head. “Mom, you’re being paranoid.”

“Am I?” she shot back.

“Or are you ignoring the signs?”

The next morning, as I packed Jeremy’s lunch, my phone rang. It was my mother. Her voice was urgent.

“Alice, I checked,” she said.

“That address he gave you? There’s no record of him working there. No one’s ever heard of him.”

“How do you know that?” I asked in a trembling voice.

“Remember Mrs.

“It’s worse than you think,” the investigator said as he handed me a folder.

My hands trembled as I opened it.

Inside were phone records, financial statements, and a detailed report of Sam’s past.

His entire life was a lie.

The office address he had given me? It was fake. There was no insurance company and no coworker named Jeremy.

The investigator had tapped Sam’s phone and uncovered everything.

It turned out Sam had been talking to his mother that night, not a colleague.

The investigator told me they were scammers and this was their game.

“He’s been planning to frame you at work,” the investigator continued. “Your job gives you access to financial accounts, right? He’s been setting things up so that if something goes wrong, you’ll take the fall.

Once you’re arrested, he gets access to your assets including your savings and your home.”Continue reading…
