<\/p>\nAdele\u2019s mother constantly urged her to get rid of her jobless husband, and although she didn\u2019t want to, Adele was starting to grow weary, too. After a fight, they separated, only for Adele to discover him holding hands with another woman \u2013 her mother \u2013 a week later.<\/p>\n
Adele walked into a restaurant to meet her mother, Linda. But at the table, Adele saw a nice-looking man. She understood Linda\u2019s game right away.<\/p>\n
Her mother stood up, her face beaming. \u201cDarling, you\u2019re here!\u201d<\/p>\n
Adele sat and hesitated a second before asking, \u201cMom, who is this?\u201d<\/p>\n
When Adele returned home, she knew she had two choices: break down or purge everything. She chose the latter. She threw all Lucas\u2019s belongings while listening to great music, signed up for a new gym and nutritionist, and adopted a new hairstyle. Despite the pain of the betrayal, the next few months of her life were incredible.<\/p>\n
But one day, the doorbell rang. On her doorstep stood her mother, tears streaming down her face. Adele\u2019s heart skipped a beat, and all the feelings she had purged came rushing back.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy are you here?\u201d Adele wondered, her tone careful.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, darling, I\u2019m so sorry\u2026\u201d she sobbed. \u201cI am the worst mother in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
Compassion settled in Adele\u2019s heart, and she let Linda inside. \u201cCan you tell me what happened?\u201d Adele asked. Instead of explaining, Linda pulled a book from her bag and handed it over.<\/p>\n
Adele glanced at the cover, her eyes widening as she recognized the author\u2019s name \u2013 Lucas\u2019s new book. \u201cWhat does this mean?\u201d she asked, confused.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat scoundrel\u2026 He used me, Adele. You have to read it,\u201d Linda said, her voice breaking, struggling to hold back more tears.<\/p>\n
Adele opened Lucas\u2019s book and began to read, her eyes scanning the pages quickly but attentively. Linda waited, her quiet sobs ebbing.<\/p>\n
Lucas had crafted a character \u2013 a woman \u2013 a mirror image of betrayal and deceit. This character was depicted as a woman who ruthlessly tore apart her own family, manipulating her daughter in pursuit of a scandalous affair with a younger man.<\/p>\n
Adele\u2019s heart sank as she put the pieces together. The character in Lucas\u2019s book \u2013 it was a thinly veiled description of Linda.<\/p>\n
Her mother, now somewhat calmer, looked at Adele with sorrowful eyes. \u201cI believed him, Adele. I\u2019m so sorry.\u201d<\/p>\n
Adele let out a long, deep sigh, her chest heavy. All she could do was hug her mother. \u201cWe both fell for it. I suggest you read his words and purge them from your life,\u201d she said into her mother\u2019s shoulder.<\/p>\n
