Chapter 2 — Adultery in Parallel Earth

After getting married, I relied on my family's resources to start a business and establish a company. As for him, he is greedy and lazy to work, always avoiding reality, and still cannot find a suitable job. Then our daughter was born. My company is constantly growing, the business is growing stronger and stronger. Co Tham was not good at business management and did not want to go out to work, so of course he became a full-time father. This life of the husband taking care of housework and the wife going out to make money has lasted for six years. The pocket money I gave Co Tham increased from five thousand per month to ten thousand, thirty thousand, then fifty thousand. This year, my daughter is six years old and is about to enter elementary school. Co Tham proactively suggested:

"It's time to hire an English tutor for my daughter. An An cannot lose right from the starting line."

I saw that what he said was reasonable, so I increased his allowance from fifty thousand to one hundred thousand per month. But now, the comments let me know that the tutor Do Kieu Kieu he was looking for was not an innocent college student at all. It was a bar girl he knew in a nightclub! The two soon hooked up, secretly for a year. Last month, while walking in the antique street, they accidentally bought this meteorite globe. After dripping blood to accept the owner, no matter where they are, as long as two people hold hands, they can penetrate into the parallel Earth and enjoy their own world. In the parallel Earth there are only buildings and landscapes, without any humans disturbing them. The two of you can shamelessly go to all the scenic spots around the world, even saving money on airfare. That makes them extremely excited, their feelings become even more entwined and inseparable. To increase the feeling of excitement, Co Tham also deliberately brought Do Kieu Kieu into the house, letting her be my daughter's English tutor. That way, they will have more time to be honest with each other. Thinking about this, I grit my teeth in hatred. The husband I raise with one hundred thousand a month is a white-eyed wolf. Not only did he betray me, but he also led the wolf into the house. Right under my eyelids, right in the study room, they did such a disgusting thing! I must make them pay! I pulled my daughter behind me to protect her.

“Co Tham, what are you doing?”

My face turned cold.

"Co Tham, I just used a lighter to light the mosquito incense and accidentally burned the globe. Why are you so angry? Does this globe have a secret that can't be known to others?"

Co Tham was stunned. A flash of panic flashed across his face. Maybe he remembered that he was just a parasite and couldn't offend me. He immediately smiled to please.

"No... nothing. How is that possible? Wife, what secrets can a globe have..."

He bent down and returned the globe to An An.

"This globe is a gift from Dad to An An. Just now Dad was just too stressed, afraid it would break."

“Really?”

I stared at him.

"Co Tham, I went to pick up Ms. Do to come teach, why did it take so long? Furthermore, why did the car catch fire in the garage?"

Mentioning this matter, Co Tham immediately changed his face and said angrily:

“Wife, it's probably because of the weather hot. As soon as Kieu Kieu and I entered the garage, the car caught fire. What luxury car, the quality is just that much!”

Do Kieu Kieu also reacted at this time, immediately crying and recounting:

“Miss Lam Lap, we are so wronged! We had just arrived at the garage when this poor car caught fire! Surely the car has quality problems!”

She covered her face and cried even louder:

“I want to claim compensation for a work accident! You two have to pay for my medical treatment, leave of absence, and mental damage… at least five hundred thousand!”

I burst out laughing.

“Compensation is fine.”

“But you have to go through insurance procedures. The insurance company will investigate the entire route and surveillance cameras of this vehicle."

The two people were stunned at the same time.

“What? Do we still need to check the camera?

Do Kieu Kieu's cry was choked in her throat. Co Tham's face immediately changed. He quickly waved his hand:

“There's no need for such trouble.”

He swallowed, his eyes avoiding.

“Wife, sorry. Just now I wanted to smoke, so I used a lighter to light it, but I wasn't careful and burned the car seat. It's all my fault..."

He smiled and walked closer to me.

“The wife is a famous businesswoman. If this story spreads out, it will be very embarrassing. Forget it.”

Do Kieu Kieu could only swallow this anger.

“That's right... no need for compensation anymore. I'm also at fault for not stopping Mr. Co Tham from smoking..."

I nodded.

“Okay.”

"Miss Do, you are injured like this, will you still teach my daughter today?"

Do Kieu Kieu looked at her struggling appearance and felt so sorry for herself that she could only sob and couldn't say anything. Co Tham was extremely heartbroken and immediately regained his fierce and righteous appearance.

“Lam Lap, are you an exploiter? Ms. Do is injured like this, how can she still teach?

He grabbed Do Kieu Kieu's hand.

“Today I must take Kieu Kieu to the hospital!”

After speaking, he started another luxury car in the garage, without turning back, carrying Do Kieu Kieu and left. Only me and my little daughter remained. An An held the meteorite globe, gently brushed away the ash above, and whispered:

“Mom, why did dad become like that… Dad became so cold and strange…”

I squatted down, holding my daughter in my arms.

“An An, if dad no longer fulfills his responsibilities as a father, can we no longer need him?”

The girl nodded vigorously, tears still welling up in her eye sockets.

“Mom, I don't need dad. I just need mom.”
