My Husband Secretly Swapped My Baby with His Mistress’s
I caught my husband swapping my eggs with his ideal woman’s before our IVF procedure.
I didn’t say a word, but switched the eggs back.
And while I was at it, I replaced my husband’s sperm with my ex–boyfriend’s.
Twenty–five years later, the other woman showed up at our door, crying hysterically to my daughter:
“Sweetie, I’m your real mother!”

My daughter Xixi and I had just returned home from an overseas medical cooperation project when we were greeted by an unexpected scene. Our house was filled with distant relatives we rarely saw. It looked like a Johnson family reunion.
The most eye–catching figure was Brianna White, sobbing dramatically in the center of the sofa. Gregory Johnson, my perpetually absent “good husband,” was comforting her with tender words and gestures.
I raised an eyebrow, set my suitcase aside, and turned to Gregory. “What’s the special occasion? Why such a crowd?”
Xixi followed behind me, arms crossed and a look of disgust on her face as she stared at Brianna. She had already guessed this woman’s
identity.
My mother–in–law sat in the main seat, her expression troubled and hesitant.
Before Gregory could speak, Brianna lunged towards Xixi, crying, “My darling daughter, I’m your real mother!”
Xixi nimbly dodged her, her face contorted with revulsion as if Brianna were something filthy. She stepped back and said coldly, “My mom’s name is Kaia Hansen.”
That’s my girl, always my little sweetheart.
I took Xixi’s hand, giving her a reassuring look, then raised my other hand and slapped Brianna across the face. The sharp sound echoed through the living room.
“Don’t go claiming false relationships,” I said, my voice icy and my gaze sharp as a knife.
Gregory jumped up, tenderly helping Brianna to her feet. He pointed at me and shouted, “Kaia, have you lost your mind? How dare you hit Brianna!”
He raised his hand, about to strike me.
Quick as lightning, Xixi stepped forward and slapped Gregory.
“You dare hit my mom?” Xixi’s voice wasn’t loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.
Gregory froze, both angry and shocked. He raised his hand again, this time to hit Xixi.
But Brianna grabbed him, fake–crying, “Gregory, don’t! She’s our daughter!”
Her act of a caring mother made me want to vomit.
Gregory lowered his hand, glaring fiercely at Xixi. “If it weren’t for your real mother’s sake, I’d teach you a lesson right now!”
Xixi let out a cold laugh. “Huh, I’d like to see you try.”
Her piercing gaze was just like mine when I was young. I felt a surge of pride this was indeed the daughter I had carefully raised!

An elder cleared his throat, attempting to calm the chaotic scene.
“Everyone, quiet down!” His deep voice carried an undeniable authority.
As the room gradually fell silent, all eyes turned to the elder.
He looked at Gregory. “Gregory, why did you call everyone here? What’s going on?”
Gregory took a deep breath, as if gathering courage.
He put his arm around Brianna’s shoulders, looking deeply in love.
“Actually, I have an important announcement to make today.”
- me.
paused, his gaze sweeping across the room before finally landing on Xixi and
I watched him silently, wondering what kind of show he was going to put on:
“Xixi… she’s not Kaia’s biological daughter, Gregory said, his voice low but the impact as explosive as a bomb in the living room.
Xixi whipped her head around to look at me, her eyes full of shock.
I gestured for her to stay calm.
The relatives around us began to whisper, like a group of sharks that had caught the scent of blood, stirring excitedly.
“Back when we did the IVF…” Gregory paused, as if it was difficult to continue, “The doctor said Kaia’s eggs weren’t good enough… To spare her feelings about being a mother, I switched them with Brianna’s…”
This idiot was actually trying to pin the blame on me for his sneaky behavior!
Gregory’s malicious gaze fell on me, seemingly waiting for me to lose control in anger.
But I remained calm and composed, forcing him to continue his performance.
“I called everyone here today to witness…” he looked at Brianna with apparent deep affection, “Xixi recognizing her birth mother.”
The relatives immediately erupted into discussion.
“If Xixi isn’t Kaia’s daughter, of course she should recognize her birth mother!”
“That’s right, Kaia has occupied the position of Johnson family’s daughter–in–law for so many years, it’s time for her to step down!”
“Kaia has been controlling Johnson Group’s assets all these years. Now that the truth is out, it’s time for her to leave the company!”
Listening to these comments, I couldn’t help but laugh coldly to myself.
These relatives with ulterior motives had long been suppressed and removed from the company’s management by me. They could only profit from year–end dividends and were very dissatisfied with me.
Now they were eager to watch the drama unfold, hoping to see Gregory and me fall out so they could return to the company and get a piece of the pie.
Xixi, seeing the undisguised greed in the relatives‘ eyes, gripped my hand tighter.
I spoke up: “Xixi is my child. She will only ever be my child.”
My voice wasn’t loud, but it was firm and resolute.
Brianna put on a helpless expression and choked out, “Sister, how long are you going to deceive yourself?”

I wasn’t deceiving myself. Xixi really was my child.
Did Gregory and Brianna really think they could fool me?

Back then, Gregory had weak sperm, so we decided to try IVF.
Before the embryo was formed, I accidentally caught Gregory secretly messing with my egg storage cabinet along with a nurse. I overheard him happily calling Brianna, saying he had successfully switched in her eggs.
At the time, I didn’t make a scene. I silently turned around and gave the doctor a hundred thousand dollars to switch back to my spare eggs that I had harvested earlier.
I also “kindly” asked the doctor to replace Gregory’s sperm with my ex–boyfriend’s.
On the day of the embryo formation, Gregory and I witnessed the birth of a “miracle” together.
He was abnormally happy, probably thinking it was his and Brianna’s child.
Watching his stupid expression, I was laughing inside.
All these years, I watched him dote on Xixi like a fool, thinking she was his child with Brianna. I can’t tell you how satisfying it was.
He tried to trick me, but ended up being the fool for over twenty years.
Gregory interrupted my reminiscing, mocking me,
*Still in denial? Xixi may have come from your body, but the egg wasn’t yours! Her birth mother is Brianna.”
I replied calmly, but with a hint of challenge: “Are you daydreaming?”
“If you don’t believe it, we can do a DNA test!” Gregory said firmly.
“I also want a divorce! You forced me to marry you, treating me like a lapdog. I’ve been with you for twenty–five years, I’ve done more than
enough for you!”
