My husband and I built a life together for 36 years—until, out of nowhere, he asked for a divorce. I thought that was the end of our story. Then one notification changed everything.
On our 36th anniversary, we danced, exchanged heartfelt gifts, and celebrated surrounded by family. A month later, Troy shattered our world. “I met someone else,” he admitted, asking for a divorce. Heartbroken, I agreed, keeping it secret from our children.
Three weeks later, a notification from his smartwatch—a heart rate drop warning—sent me rushing to his apartment. I found him unconscious on the pavement. His mistress, Alicia, shockingly tried to keep me away. Ignoring her, I called 911.
Doctors later revealed his new intense workout plan—given by Alicia—was killing him. She wanted his money, not him. Realizing his mistake, Troy apologized. Then, he reached for my hand. “Will you be my wife again?”
I smirked. “Only if Alicia’s out of your will.”
The smartwatch I gifted him didn’t just save his life. It saved our marriage.
