My MIL shoved me into the pool, screaming, “Her pregnancy is fake!” I couldn’t swim and blacked out. At the hospital, the doctor whispered, “Your baby is fine, but your husband filed for divorce while you were asleep.” Before I could speak, my husband walked in arm-in-arm with my sister…
“She’s not carrying a child!” Linda Carter bellowed, her voice echoing with vindictive glee. “I was right! The whole thing is a pathetic sham!”
Those venomous words were the final sounds that registered in my mind before the crushing weight of the water forced me under for the last time, and my world dissolved into absolute, suffocating darkness.
