When Your Cheating Husband's Dream Become Your Divorce Evidence novel Chapter 78

Chapter 4

Everything changed the next Saturday.

Jake wanted family bonding time at the stables.

Carson was psyched ‘cause Sophia promised to teach him to ride.

I couldn’t ride for shit, so I just watched.

Carson looked like a little prince on this white pony, Sophia leading him around.

“Miss Sophia, am I doing it right?”

“You’re perfect, sweetie!”

She kept checking to make sure Jake was watching her be the perfect mom.

Their laughter made me sick.

Jake came over: “See how great they are together? Sophia’s amazing with kids.”

“Yeah,” I said, watching my son love someone else.

Then the pony freaked out and reared up.

Carson screamed and hit the ground.

Everyone froze.

I stopped thinking and started running.

“CARSON!”

Sophia was screaming too, got there first.

“Carson, baby, are you hurt? Tell me where it hurts!” Crying like her heart was breaking.

Carson was terrified, sobbing.

I tried to get close but he shoved me away.

“Get away from me! I hate you! You did this! You scared my horse!”

I was standing like twenty feet away. Hadn’t done jack shit.

But Carson was pointing at me, crying like I’d tried to kill him.

Jake came running over and snatched Carson right out of Sophia’s arms.

“Where’s it hurt, buddy? You okay?”

“Daddy, it was her! She gave my horse the evil eye and scared him!” Carson was bawling, pointing his little finger straight at me.

Jake looked at me like I was a monster.

“Clara, what the fuck did you do?”

I just stood there with my mouth hanging open.

“Nothing!” I said, “I was just standing here!”

Sophia was shaking, hugging herself: “It’s not Miss Montgomery’s fault, Jake. Maybe I didn’t hold the lead rope tight enough. It’s my fault. Carson, don’t be scared, honey.”

She was all gentle with Carson, comforting him and shit, but kept side eyeing me like she was scared I’d call her out.
