“After More Than Two Hours in a Hotel With My Boss, I Came Home to Cook Porridge for My Paralyzed Husband—But What I Found Shook My Entire World”
I stepped out of the Oberoi Hotel, neon lights casting pale reflections on my weary face. Mumbai was still alive, noisy, chaotic—but inside me, there was only silence.
Mr. Verma, my boss, had just left, leaving me behind with a wrinkled office dress and a gaping void in my chest.
My phone buzzed inside my handbag.
I took it out. A bank notification appeared: ₹500,000 deposited. A sum large enough to make my heart race.
But I didn’t feel happy.
My name is Priya, 28 years old. Just an ordinary office worker living in Thane, Mumbai’s outskirts. But nothing about my life has been ordinary for a long time.
My husband, Ravi, once a bright young engineer, had been paralyzed from the neck down after a car accident two years ago. Since then, I’ve become his nurse, caregiver, and sole provider—feeding, bathing, cleaning, and caring for him day in, day out, like a robot with no feelings left.
But tonight, I wasn’t just a devoted wife anymore.
I had done something I never thought I’d be capable of.
That morning, Mr. Verma called me into his office.
A powerful man in his 50s, wealthy, authoritative, and always giving me looks that made my skin crawl.
“Priya, do you want to save your husband?”
I nodded. My heart already pounding.
He slid a contract across the desk. The number ₹500,000 was printed in bold at the top. In exchange—one night with him in a hotel.
I froze.
Ravi needed surgery. The doctors said he wouldn’t survive the year without it. We were broke. Both our families had exhausted every resource.
I signed. My hand trembled so hard my signature was barely legible.
At the hotel, I felt numb. I didn’t think. I didn’t feel. I just… endured.
Mr. Verma was surprisingly gentle. But every touch felt like a knife slicing my pride.
When it was over, he handed me an envelope and said:
“You did well. Your husband will thank you.”
I didn’t reply. I just bowed and left quietly.
When I got home to our tiny room in Thane, the scent of boiling rice porridge filled the air.
Ravi still lay there, his blank eyes staring at the ceiling. I sat beside him, scooped porridge, and fed him slowly.
“I worked overtime today. I’m tired.”
I lied.
He nodded weakly, asking nothing.
I looked at him—the man I once loved so fiercely. Now, just a shadow on a mattress.
Tears rolled down my cheeks and fell into the porridge bowl.
My phone buzzed again.
Another ₹1,000,000 deposited.
I froze.
Mr. Verma?
I checked the message:
“You deserve more. Don’t tell anyone.”
My heart pounded.
Was it a trap?
A cruel pity?
I didn’t know.
The next morning, I arrived at the office, my nerves shredded.
Mr. Verma was gone. His secretary said he flew to Delhi early in the morning.
I sighed in relief—but unease still gnawed at me.
Then my phone buzzed again.
A message from an unknown number:
“Priya, thank you for saving me last night. I am Ravi—but not your Ravi.”
My body turned cold.
I tried calling the number.
Disconnected.
I rushed home.
Ravi was still on the bed, unmoving.
“Do you… know anything?” I whispered.
He looked at me. And then, a soft smile appeared.
“Priya, I know you’ve sacrificed so much. But are you sure… the man you were with last night was really your boss?”
My mind spun.
I went through the contract again. The signature was not Mr. Verma’s.
It was someone else:
Ravi Narayan.
Same name as my husband.
The bank transaction?
Also Ravi Narayan.
That night, I couldn’t sleep.
I sat beside Ravi, trying to piece together the fragments of this twisted truth.
Had someone else stepped in?
Had someone been watching me all along?
At 3 a.m., another message arrived:
“Don’t look for me. Use that money to save your husband.
He doesn’t deserve any more of your pain.”
I read it again.
And again.
Who was “he”?
Who was “the real Ravi”?
Was the man lying next to me really just a helpless patient?
I stared at the ₹1.5 million in my account.
And I knew—this story was far from over.
Perhaps the man I had been caring for…
Was not who I thought he was
