"Karma's a bitch, isn't it? That's what happens when you steal someone's husband and have his bastard. Consider yourself lucky my lover didn't do worse."
The group chat exploded. Parents I'd known for months turned vicious, attacking me and my daughter.
Even Mrs. Thompson, her teacher, jumped in: "Tyler was such a good boy today, Cathy! Extra star for him tomorrow!"
Cathy couldn't resist: "If you've got a problem, come face me. We're still at school. Unless you're scared..."
I strapped my daughter into the car and texted my lawyers:
"Prepare the divorce papers. I'm going to leave with my daughter."
"She was attacked at school. Send a team here right now. Charge whatever amount directly to my card. They will pay for this."
At Oak Lane, I found Cathy surrounded by her new fan club.
"Cathy, you're so modest! We had no idea your husband runs Spencer Corp!"
"No wonder you always seemed different. That's real class!"
"We're all behind you. Can't let gold-diggers like her win."
"Right? Tyler's the real heir to Spencer Corp. Already showing leadership!"
