Our Joint Account Bought His Ex

Summary

Hudson’s first love, Celine, had returned to the country. She was so broke that her family's historic estate was going up for foreclosure auction.

When I asked him if he still loved her, he frowned and told me to stop being ridiculous—he wasn’t that fickle.

And I believed him.

Until his phone lit up in the middle of the night, showing a wire transfer of two million dollars. I recognized the amount instantly. It was the starting bid for Celine’s family estate.

He hadn’t cheated on me. Not technically. He had simply used our joint marital funds to buy back another woman’s childhood home.
