My Husband Asked For Paternity Test after I Gave Birth – He Was ‘Shocked’ When He Read the Results
Five weeks after our daughter Sarah was born, my husband’s shocking accusation about her paternity shattered what should have been a joyous time. He questioned if she was truly his because of her blue eyes and blonde hair, which didn’t match his or mine. I was devastated, but agreed to a paternity test, hoping to prove my innocence.
His absence, staying at his parents’ house, left me alone with our newborn. Then, his mother called, threatening to ruin my life if the test proved Sarah wasn’t his. Her hostility was gut-wrenching, but I held on, knowing the truth.
When the test results came in, they confirmed Sarah was his. But instead of relief, Alex’s reaction was anger. He didn’t understand the damage his doubts had caused. I revealed that his mother had threatened me, and that was when he realized how far things had gone.
Days later, he came back, apologizing, but the damage was done. I wasn’t sure I could trust him again. He promised to make it right, but as time passed, I began to wonder if his insecurities had a darker source.
One night, while he slept, I checked his phone and found texts revealing he was having an affair. I filed for divorce immediately. By the time Alex returned home, I was gone. The divorce settlement gave me everything, including custody of Sarah, and I moved on, determined to protect my daughter and myself.
