I Almost Gave up My Dog for Adoption Due to My Husband’s Plan, but My 4-Year-Old Revealed His Scheme

“If you didn’t want the dog, you could have just said so from the beginning,” I replied, my eyes locking onto his. “Why this sudden change of heart? Why fake an allergy?”

Mark’s eyes darted to the side, and he rubbed the back of his neck.

“I didn’t fake anything. I didn’t take the medicine because I didn’t want to harm my body over a mere dog,” he said, his tone defensive. “And that lipstick? It’s an old tube my sister left behind the last time she visited.”

I stared at him, my heart sinking. I knew he was lying.

His sister hadn’t visited in months, and I was certain she’d never brought that shade of lipstick into our home.
