They Killed My Dog to Keep Me Barefoot and Pregnant

Two weeks away on a business trip, and when I came home, my dog Buddy was gone.

My boyfriend and his mother swore up and down that the dog had run off.

I was frantic, asking around in the residents' group chat.

A neighbor wrote back:

【Didn't your dog die?】

【In heat like this, you don't turn the AC on for the dog, fine, but you shut it out on the balcony? No wonder it died in the heat.】

I stared at the screen, not trusting my own eyes.

Two months ago, Boris Matthews's mother had moved in with us.

Ever since, she'd had her hands in everything.
