The Ultimate Betrayal

Andrew Hawk couldn’t believe his ears when the doctor finally told him the truth. For twenty years, he’d poured his blood, sweat, and tears into his marriage.

But now he knew that his wife had betrayed him in the worst way possible. Finally, it all made sense. She had been lying all along.

Tears burned behind the man’s eyes as he pushed his chair out and rose to his feet. He knew just what to do to get his revenge.

A Normal Day

That day was supposed to be like any other. When the doctor called and asked him to come to his office, he didn’t suspect anything.

His plan was to slip away from the office during lunchtime and swing by the man’s office to get his results.

He expected it to take no longer than 15 minutes, but he had no idea that the doctor wanted to discuss something urgent with him.

He Was Wrong

He left the office just after 12 p.m., telling his colleagues that he would be back in twenty minutes at most.

But he was wrong. In reality, Andrew would not return to work for the next few days. His doctor had discovered something unsettling.

The drive to the doctor’s office passed without any hiccups, and before he knew it, he was inside the large building.

Unexpected

“Hi there,” he greeted the receptionist with a bright smile. It’s Andrew Hawk. Doctor Evans said I could grab my results.”

But he was surprised when the receptionist refused to give him his results. “Actually, Mr. Hawk, the doctor would like to see you himself,” she said.

Andrew was confused when he was asked to wait in the waiting room. But he did as instructed. That was when a terrible feeling washed over him.

He Began To Worry

Suddenly, he began worrying about what the tests could have detected. What if he had some kind of disease or illness?

The thought alone scared him, but the truth was much worse than he ever could have imagined. His palms grew sweaty.

He sat quietly for nearly ten minutes before his name was finally called. “The doctor will see you now,” The receptionist called.

The Doctor’s Office

Andrew swallowed as he got up from his seat, walked down the familiar hall, and headed toward his doctor’s office.

When he stepped inside, he noticed the worried look on the doctor’s face. “Oh no, it’s cancer, isn’t it?” He said aloud, scared for his life.

But the doctor didn’t react. He simply told Andrew to take a seat. “It’s not cancer, but there is something I need to tell you.”

A Secret

Andrew sat down quietly and watched the doctor dig through his folder. He knew that something was terribly wrong.

The doctor placed a sheet of paper down in front of Andrew and stared at him over the brim of his glasses.

“Sir, the tests revealed something that I thought you should know,” The doctor started. But what he said next revealed a secret that Andrew’s wife had kept for eighteen years.

A Perfect Life

Andrew Hawk lived in Seattle, Washington, all his life. It was there that he met his wife, Abigail, and where they raised their three sons, Michael, Dylan, and Joseph.

Andrew always knew he was destined to be a husband and father. When Abigail unexpectedly fell pregnant with their first child, he was beside himself with excitement.

Over the years, he worked extremely hard to give his wife and children everything they needed. He never thought that one day, their lives would fall apart.

They Were Close

Andrew and Abigail had always been extremely close. He told his wife everything, and over the years, she’d become increasingly close to his family.

His mother and father loved her dearly, and his older brother, Dale, always spoke about how Andrew had married the perfect woman.

For twenty years, Andrew felt like the luckiest man in the world. While he worked every day, she raised their three sons at home. Over the years, he watched them grow into amazing young men.

Middle-Aged

But before Andrew knew it, he was in his mid-forties. His eldest son, Michael, had just turned eighteen, and the youngest, Joseph, was fifteen.

It was during this time that tragedy struck the Hawk household. Sadly, Abigail lost her father after a long battle with cancer.

The old man had lost his battle with prostate cancer, and she feared that something like that could happen again.

Assuring Her

She opened up to her husband about it one evening. “We’re getting older. I think it’s best if we start taking our health a little more seriously before something bad happens,” Abigail explained.

Andrew couldn’t agree more. Over the years, he’d begun feeling all kinds of signs of aging. “Then that’s what we’ll do,” He assured his wife.

But one casual day, she made a suggestion that would change their lives forever. If she had known, she would’ve kept quiet.

Doctor’s Appointments

“I scheduled appointments for us with Dr. Evans and Dr. Craig. I think it’s important that we go for regular check-ups. After all, it’s been a while,” Abigail said.

At the time, Andrew was happy to make the effort if it put her mind at ease. “When are our appointments?” He asked with a reassuring smile.

Lately, he could tell that the death of her father had caused some type of health anxiety. All he wanted was to put her mind at ease.

He Was Wrong

Their appointments were scheduled on separate days that week. Andrew had an appointment with Dr. Evans on a Thursday.

The day of his appointment started just fine. Andrew asked for the morning off and headed for the doctor’s office.

As he waited in the waiting room, he was looking forward to getting it over with. He was sure that everything was fine. But he was wrong.

His Appointment

It took some time, but eventually, Andrew was called into Dr. Evans’s office. He sat in front of the older man with a polite smile.

“Hello, Mr. Hawk,” Dr. Evans said. “What can I help you with today?” He asked and reached for Andrew’s file on his desk.

“My wife scheduled me for a check-up. Her father recently passed away from prostate cancer, and she’s feeling a little anxious about it,” He shrugged.

Small Talk

Before Andrew knew it, he was sitting in front of the doctor while he measured his blood pressure, engaging in small talk.

“So, how is your family taking it? The passing of your wife’s father?” The doctor asked casually, fidgeting with his gadgets.

“My wife is taking it the worst. Our three sons are doing better now. They didn’t take it well at first,” Andrew answered. But soon, his life would take a sudden turn.

Testing

That day, the doctor did all kinds of tests on Andrew. Andrew was there for hours, and by the end of it, he was exhausted.

“We will send all of these samples off for testing. It should take about a week or two. But I’ll give you a call once you can pick up your results,” The doctor said.

Andrew thanked the older man before leaving his office. He was glad that it was finally over, but he had no idea what was coming.

Family Time

The days passed quickly, and Andrew had just about forgotten all about his visit to the doctor’s office.

That weekend, the family enjoyed a barbecue with Andrew’s side of the family. His mother, father, and older brother, Dale, were all there.

While Andrew barbecued with his mother and father, Abigail and Dale prepared side dishes in the kitchen. Andrew was grateful that Abigail got along with his brother.

They Were Close

They had always been close, and Dale never failed to tell Andrew how lucky he was to have a wife like Abigail.

“I could only dream of someday having someone as wonderful by my side,” His single brother said.

Andrew appreciated his brother’s support of their relationship. He never thought anything of it until one day.

The Call

The morning Andrew received a call from the doctor’s office, he was at work, finishing up a project he had been working on for weeks.

“Hello?” He said, casually answering the phone. But when he heard the doctor’s voice, he suddenly remembered the tests he had forgotten all about.

“Good morning, Mr. Hawk. I’m calling to let you know that we have your results. Would you be able to pick them up at some point today?” The older man asked.

His Lunch Break

Andrew was happy to grab them during his lunch break. He told the doctor he would be there just after 12 p.m.

His morning passed without a hitch. It was just another casual day, but he had no idea what awaited him.

By the end of that day, his life would change in a way he never saw coming. He was hours away from making a terrible discovery.

Fetching The Results

When 12 p.m. arrived, he left the office, telling his colleagues he would be back in twenty minutes at most. But he was wrong.

The drive to the doctor’s office passed without any hiccups, and before he knew it, he was inside the large building.

“Hi there,” he greeted the receptionist with a bright smile. It’s Andrew Hawk. Doctor Evans said I could grab my results.” But he did not expect the receptionist’s response.

Take A Seat

He wanted to grab his results and head straight back to the office, but the receptionist wouldn’t give them to him.

“Actually, Mr. Hawk, the doctor would like to see you himself,” she said. At that moment, he instantly knew something was wrong.

He sat in the waiting room, his heart racing. But a few minutes later, his name was finally called. He had no idea what was coming.

A Question

Andrew sat quietly and waited for the doctor to explain the problem, but he did not expect what the doctor said next.

“You said you had three sons with your wife. Is this correct?” The doctor asked. Andrew was immediately caught off guard.

He frowned, “Yes. We have three sons together. What do they have to do with my results?” He asked, confused.

Infertile

The doctor rubbed a hand across his forehead and placed the papers down in front of Andrew. But what did the papers say?

“According to the tests, Mr. Hawk, you are infertile,” The doctor said. But Andrew didn’t see the problem with that yet.

“Oh, that’s okay. We don’t plan on having any more children. I assume it’s something that just happens with age, right?” He asked, but then, the doctor said something terrible.

The Results

“Mr. Hawk, this has nothing to do with aging. You have never been fertile. It is impossible for you to be the father of those three boys,” The doctor said.

But Andrew couldn’t believe it. He sat frozen for a while, staring at the doctor as he tried to process what he’d said.

“No,” he finally said, “That can’t be possible. My children look just like me. They have my genes.”

A Terrible Feeling

Dr. Evans felt awful as he watched the man battle a million thoughts a second. He shook his head, feeling terrible that he had to say this.

“Is it possible that someone else in your family could be the father? It is impossible for you to be their biological father, Mr. Hawk,” He said.

Andrew felt like he was going to be sick. He sat for a second longer, got up, and grabbed his results. He left the office without another word.

The Truth

Andrew drove straight home, his heart pounding in his chest. When he burst through the front door, his face red with anger, Abigail frowned.

“What’s going on, honey?” She asked, confused. He placed the paper down before her. Suddenly, he realized why his brother was so fond of her.

“Tell me who the father is because it’s definitely not me,” He said. She glanced at the results, his face turning pale.

Revenge

That day, Abigail admitted to everything. Dale had been the father of their children all along, but Andrew got his revenge.

As the breadwinner of their household, he filed for divorce and took everything, which meant that she had to find work in order to survive.

Andrew remained close to the kids, but he swore to never speak to Abigail ever again. Eventually, he moved on. But she lost everything, including a man who loved her dearly.
