Man Leaves His Wife and Triplets After DNA Test – Years Later, He Sees Them Again
John and Sandra
John and Sandra had been married for several years when they found out that Sandra was pregnant. They were overjoyed to receive this news. They had often talked about having children, but they hadn't actively tried – it was a wonderful surprise. It would change their lives.
Their relationship was strong, and during the pregnancy, their feelings for each other deepened even further. They grew closer and discovered new things about themselves and each other. They had enjoyed their life together and were happy to expand their family.
Triplets
When they heard that Sandra was pregnant with triplets, they were initially completely shocked. They hadn't even planned for one child, and now they were expecting three. They worried that it would be too much for them, but soon they became accustomed to the idea.
After the first ultrasound, they held the first picture of their triplets in their hands – they had fallen in love with them. They knew they would do everything to provide a wonderful home for the children, just like all parents would.
A Wonderful Time
The pregnancy went smoothly, and they used the time to transform the guest room into a nursery. Choosing furniture, buying clothes, and preparing for the big day brought them great joy. They couldn't have imagined greater happiness.
The nine months flew by, and one morning they had to rush to the hospital. On the same day, all three children came into the world. They were healthy, and Sandra would be feeling better in a few weeks.
John Noticed Something
The new parents had to adjust to life with three babies now. They did everything they felt was right and slowly adapted to their new lifestyle. John and Sandra loved their children with all their hearts, but it didn't take long for John to notice something.
The babies didn't look anything like him. He tried to convince himself that this didn't matter for newborns, but even as they got older, he saw no resemblance to himself. This raised some doubts that he wanted to discuss with Sandra.
Asking Sandra About It
He didn't know what to do; after all, he was aware that his concern might seem ridiculous. He decided to talk to Sandra first. She was exhausted and tired, and this wouldn't be a positive conversation, but it was important to him.
One evening, after putting the babies to bed, John sat down beside Sandra and asked if they could talk. He explained what had been on his mind, and when he finished speaking, they sat in complete silence for a few seconds. He had no idea how she would react...
She Got Angry
But when she finally looked at him, it was clear. She was furious! She asked John if he was serious, and when he confirmed it, she exploded in anger. She couldn't believe that he actually doubted her. What was he thinking, anyway?!
She stormed into the bedroom and locked the door behind her. John remained alone in the living room. He felt guilty for hurting his wife but also realized that she hadn't denied his accusations.
He Had to Do Something
It was evident that she was upset, but there could be more reasons behind it. Even after asking, she never explicitly told him that the children definitely carried his DNA. And that only raised more questions. He knew he had to do something, even if his wife wouldn't be of much help.
He pondered for a while and then decided to have a DNA test done. This would clarify his questions once and for all. He made an appointment with his doctor and explained the situation. He had to be careful and didn't want Sandra to know anything about it.
Gathering Evidence
John made sure Sandra wasn't around when he collected the children's and his own DNA. He sent the swabs to the lab and now waited to find out the truth. The waiting was excruciating.
John waited for the call and hated every second of it. He had no idea what to expect, but he hoped that his doubts would be shattered and he would never have to think about it again. He was so stressed that Sandra noticed it too.
Barely Any Communication
Days passed, and he hardly spoke to his wife. They only had conversations when they planned their days and took care of the children. John felt that something had changed between them. Was it his question, or was there something else behind it?
Those days were the hardest for him. Every time he looked at his children, he had to think about the test and what would happen if his suspicion was confirmed. He loved them with all his heart, and it pained him to think about the possibility that he might not be their father.
The Phone Rang
One day, John heard his phone ringing. It was the doctor. He quickly went into the bathroom, locked himself in, and took a deep breath. He answered and felt his heart racing faster. The next moments would change the rest of his life.
"Hi, John. This is Dr. Roberts. Do you have a moment?" the doctor asked. John could barely breathe, and he was shaking, but he agreed. Then the doctor finally explained what the DNA test had revealed. Was John right with his suspicion?
Not the Father
The test had revealed that John was not the father. He wasn't related to the babies. John's world collapsed at that moment. He had hoped so much that he was wrong with his suspicion, but now he knew the truth, and there was nothing he could have done.
He was inconsolable. How could Sandra do this to him? He thought she loved him... Their relationship had always been perfect – they never fought and trusted each other completely. But maybe that had been his mistake. About a year ago, he had noticed she had become very close to one of her colleagues. Did that have something to do with it?
Confronting Sandra
John decided he had to confront Sandra about it. He hoped that now she would answer honestly and could clarify his questions. He had evidence; would she admit what she had been doing behind his back, or would she continue to lie?
However, Sandra continued to deny everything. She told him she would never be unfaithful and that she would never do such a thing to her family. John tried several times to get her to admit it, but she stuck to her answer. And for John, it was clear. Sandra could lie, but the DNA test couldn't.
Getting a Divorce
A few months later, their divorce was finalized. John had left Sandra with the triplets, and although it hurt him, he believed he had made the right decision. He loved the triplets dearly, and that would never change, but he wasn't ready to have a family with a woman who had betrayed him.
For John, it was terrible that Sandra hadn't confessed to the infidelity. She had denied all accusations and begged John to stay with her. If she had been honest, he might have reconsidered, but unfortunately, that never happened.
They Went Their Separate Ways
They went their separate ways, John moved into an apartment in the city, and Sandra stayed in their house with the children. Years went by, and they didn't hear from each other until their paths crossed again one day. This meeting didn't go as planned.
Years later, John would see the triplets again, and that would eventually lead to a shocking discovery. But until then, he thought about them. Not a day went by that he didn't think back to his old life. He had many fond memories of them.
He had never forgotten them
Sure, he only knew them as babies, but he had still formed a connection with them. And he would never forgive Sandra for deceiving him like that. She had built such a beautiful family with him and had destroyed it all. All of this constantly ran through his mind – he couldn't let it go.
The more time passed, the worse John felt. Sandra had pleaded for him to come back, and deep down, he knew he would have done just that if she had ever admitted to what she had done and told him the truth. But she insisted that she had never cheated on him, and since he didn't want to hear these lies anymore, he decided to cut off all contact with her.
Bad Habits
The more pain he experienced from losing his children and the love of his life, the more John leaned towards bad habits. John started drinking more, shutting himself off, and devising plans for revenge. When he was at home, he was mostly drunk and felt lonely.
He thought about what had happened and came up with all sorts of theories. He was now convinced that Sandra had cheated on him with her colleague, Michael. The more he thought about it, the more logical it seemed to him.
Confronting Michael
He decided to do something that anyone in his situation would have done – at least, he justified his actions in his head. He went to Sandra's workplace to confront her colleague. Hopefully, he would tell him the truth.
He entered, ignoring the receptionist trying to stop him. He made it to the elevator, went up to the third floor. The elevator doors closed, and with his heart racing, he pondered how to confront Michael. He went up to the third floor.
In Michael's Office
Angrily, he stormed into Michael's office, and before he could even realize what was happening, John had grabbed him by the collar. "What have you done to my family? How could you?" John yelled in his face.
Michael immediately started to defend himself: "You're John, right? I haven't done anything, man." John didn't believe a word. It was all a set-up. Every word from his mouth only made him angrier.
The Door Opened
He clenched his fists and was about to strike when the office door suddenly swung open behind him. A security guard burst in, and John froze in the middle of his motion. His gaze now wandered through the entire office, and his eyes met someone he hadn't expected to see – his ex-wife, Sandra.
She still worked in the same building, and John had been so blinded by anger that he hadn't even thought of this possibility. Now he stood there, without saying a word.
His Eyes Filled with Tears
He hadn't seen her for years, but she hadn't aged a day. Now his eyes filled with tears, and he realized how much he was still in love with her, even though a long time had passed.
"John, what are you doing here?" she asked him incredulously. He was drunk and couldn't find a good answer, so he mumbled something. "You're drunk. You need to leave immediately, or I'll call the police. Do you understand?"
He Was Embarrassed
John realized he had made a mistake and left the place as quickly as he could. He kept his head down to hide the shame and tears, and as soon as he got home, he drank another bottle. It was the most embarrassing thing he had ever done, and what had he gained from it? Absolutely nothing.
It dawned on him that he really had to change something. If he ever wanted to be a father again in the future, he had to do better. He knew it would be a difficult road to recovery, but he wouldn't have to do it alone. He wanted to seek support from people.
An AA Meeting
John decided to attend a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous. But before he could set off, there was a knock on his door. Someone was standing outside his apartment, although he wasn't expecting anyone. He had no idea who it could be.
When he opened the door, he saw that it was Sandra. She looked terrible, as if she had been crying a lot. John was somewhat embarrassed by the chaos in his apartment, but he still invited her in. He wouldn't just slam the door in her face, and he was very surprised to see her.
He was surprised
He had never expected her to want to see him again, especially after he had shown up like that at her office, and they hadn't spoken in a long time. If she just showed up at his doorstep, it had to be really important, he thought.
She stepped in and looked around. She sat on a chair in the kitchen and looked at him. Then tears started rolling down her cheeks, and she sobbed, "John, I don't even know where to begin." He sat next to her and gently stroked her back to calm her down.
She Started Speaking
He gave her a glass of water, and she took a deep breath before she started speaking, "I know we haven't talked in a long time, and I'm sorry for just showing up like this. But I have to tell you something. I still can't believe it."
To his surprise, Sandra started talking about the triplets. She didn't mention anything about Michael or her work. Sandra explained what had happened in the last few years and the shocking discovery she had made. She just had to tell John about it.
A Realization
Sandra explained that she was completely devastated after leaving John. She tried to provide a stable home for her children and to carry on alone. But after a few months, she noticed something.
John had criticized that the children didn't look anything like him, and now she realized that they didn't resemble her either. So she called her doctor to do another DNA test - this time, on herself! She had explained everything to her doctor, and he had agreed to the DNA test.
Contacting the Hospital
It had taken a few days for the test results to come back, but Sandra's suspicion had been confirmed. Indeed, they were not her children. But how was that even possible, and what did it mean for her and her ex-husband?
Sandra had then contacted the hospital and the police. All of this had to be clarified. The hospital must have records of another birth with triplets, that much was certain. It didn't take long before Sandra got the answers she was looking for.
The Police's Task
Reluctantly, the hospital had disclosed all the information. Who was born on that day? Who worked at the hospital? And who had taken home the wrong set of triplets? It was all clear now.
The police started looking for the other set of triplets, and after a few weeks, Sandra finally received a message. They had found the triplets, and now Sandra had to decide how to handle the situation.
Sandra's Decision
Sandra was immediately sure she had to share this information with John first. She hadn't been able to muster the courage to reach out to him until he had come back into her life on his own. Sandra took a deep breath.
She said, "You see, I have never been unfaithful to you. The DNA test was correct, but it wasn't my fault; it was the hospital's fault." John didn't know what to say. He was ashen and speechless. He had never considered this possibility.
A Joint Decision
John eventually apologized to Sandra, and now they both sat in the kitchen and wept. They had destroyed their lives for so long and missed each other, and it hadn't been their fault. They decided to work on healing their relationship and to give it another try.
It was a good decision, and John couldn't have been happier. But what would they do about the triplets? Should they turn the lives of six children upside down, or would it remain their secret?
A Happy Ending
John moved back in with them, and together they decided they would wait a while before making their decision. They wanted to work on their relationship first before facing another difficult situation.
The children were happy to have a father figure back in their lives, and Sandra was glad to have someone on her side. One day they would decide whether it was appropriate to tell the children the truth or to protect them from it – for now, they were focused on being happy.
