On the day... of our wedding anniversary, my husband chose to visit his mistress. Meanwhile, my father was rushed to the hospital for a heart condition. The doctor informed us that he needed an injection as soon as possible. However, when I went to purchase the necessary medication, I realized to my shock and embarrassment that all 1.8 million NDT in our joint bank account had been completely drained. It turns out my husband had drained it to provide financial support for his lover!
