The Secret Millionaire Husband

Elena works days as a supermarket cashier and nights at a night-market stall, her hands raw with chilblains, while her husband Jason claims he has been unemployed for half a year and failed every interview. He tells her to take her parents' pension, and when the mortgage falls due, she pawns the gold ring her mother gave her as a dowry to pay it.

Then a securities message lights up Jason's phone: his account profit has passed five million dollars. The phone opens only to his first love's birthday, and inside she finds a group chat where he calls her a free nanny and plans to squeeze her family dry before casting her off, along with hotel selfies and a watch worth thousands.

She says nothing, serves him porridge, and listens as he asks for her parents' pension to invest. When she asks what he would do with money, he almost answers that he would change wives. She lowers her head and pretends to obey.
