The man had to wait for two weeks after his wife’s death as he needed postmortem paperwork to bury her, so he decided to sort out her belongings meanwhile.

With his son’s help, he dug through her belongings. They charged her devices to see if they still worked and then came across a stack of papers. The man took a closer look and realized they were love letters written by an unknown man.

He worked night shifts four days a week while his wife stayed home and looked after their children. He believed he lived the perfect life with his wife until he discovered the love letters after her death. The man also found text messages from the same man on her devices. He was shocked to read the messages and found it hard to believe that his wife had cheated on him.

OP (Original Poster) revealed that the man her wife had an affair with died seven years before her demise. He knew the man very well since he was a family friend who often visited their house in OP’s presence and always left before OP went to work.

He asked his children if they had ever seen the man at home in his absence, but they denied it. He explained, “She had been having an affair that started in the first year of the marriage.” Their affair lasted for as long as the man lived, and this infuriated OP. He also discovered that the entire village knew about their affair.

After reading all the text messages and letters, OP found out that the man suspected one of their four children was his. When he told his children about it, they had divided opinions. Two of his children said they wanted to take a DNA test, while the other two told him they were sure he was their father and refused to take the test.

Meanwhile, the revelation of OP’s wife’s betrayal was such a huge blow to the OP that he wanted to take revenge on her. He knew his wife wanted to be buried next to her parents, so he decided not to respect her wishes.

Instead, he sent her body 300 miles away from the village and buried her in England. The villagers were furious when they saw him taking the body away.
