I accidentally found out that my husband married me for a disgusting reason. It happened after 15 years of marriage. We were about to celebrate our 15th anniversary, when my husband’s cruel plan was revealed. Turned out, he had originally married me not out of love, but to gain access to my family’s business connections. I discovered this by accident after overhearing a conversation between him and an old friend during a casual gathering at our home. My husband laughed and said, “Back then, I just needed a way into her father’s circle. I didn’t even think we’d last this long.”
In that moment, my world collapsed. For years, I believed we had built a life based on support, companionship, and shared dreams. Though his behavior had sometimes seemed emotionally distant, I always gave him the benefit of the doubt, thinking he was simply tired or stressed. But hearing that his original intention was selfish, even planned, made me question everything.
That night, instead of confronting him immediately, I took time to think. I reflected on the years we spent together—our routines, our quiet mornings, the times I supported him through career setbacks. I realized I had given my all with sincerity, even if he had started with dishonesty. The next day, I calmly asked him for the truth. Shocked that I knew, he confessed that in the beginning, he had seen our marriage as a strategic move—but claimed he eventually grew to love me genuinely.
