My Blood Froze When I Opened My Husband’s Drawer the Day after Moving in with Him

Freya was thrilled to begin her new life with George on his family’s fairytale-like home. Valerie, the maid, gave Freya a nasty stare shortly after moving in and later informed her about George’s secret existence via a message on Freya’s phone: “Check your husband’s drawer. The upper left one, especially. “Then run!”

Inside the drawer, Freya discovered love messages and a key. George wrote the letters to a woman named Elena, detailing his deep previous love and dreams for a future together. The final letter was written just three days before George proposed to Freya. The key led Freya to a dusty attic full of photos of George and Elena, including an ultrasound of their unborn child.

“Elena is my sister,” Valerie explained. She revealed that George abandoned Elena after he discovered their baby had Down syndrome, viewing them as a burden. George’s sister agreed that the attic was his favorite room.

With Valerie’s assistance, Freya approached George’s family. “Is this true?” George’s dad demanded. George’s silence was devastating. The familial fallout was fast; George was disinherited, and his inheritance was transferred to help Elena and her kid.

Freya was granted a divorce and obtained assets intended for George. She used the monies to establish a charity for disabled children, which Valerie administered and George’s mother supported. Freya converted her sadness into a goal to help others, giving a happy ending to a tragic revelation.
