A Father's Descent into Madness

Summary

When the hospital called to demand my daughter's overdue medical fees again, my ex-husband finally stepped in and cleared our entire balance.

He looked at our daughter, whose lips were tinged a sickly blue with her heart condition, his eyes swimming with guilt. "Let's get remarried. The child is innocent."

I didn't hesitate. I merely nodded with absolute apathy.

After we remarried, I stopped picking fights with his high school sweetheart.

Our daughter, Lily, also stopped desperately trying to steal her father's attention away from his sweetheart's daughter.
