After I Broke My Leg, My Husband Refused to Drive Our Kids to School Because He ‘Couldn’t Be Late for Work’ – Then I Caught Him Picking up His Young, Pretty Coworker, so I Taught Him a Lesson

Then I remembered Adele had spoken warmly about her boyfriend at the Christmas party.

That proved nothing.

Neither did Harold opening a car door.

But it proved one thing I couldn’t explain away.

He had time.

That evening, I waited until the girls were upstairs.

“I saw you this morning.”

Harold was opening the refrigerator.

“Near it.”

His hand stopped on the milk.

“Adele got into your car,” I said.

He relaxed so visibly that I almost laughed.

“Oh. That.”

“Her car broke down.”

“And?”

“And I’m giving her a ride.”

I shifted my crutches against the counter.

“You told me you can’t take Sasha and Nicki to school because it’ll make you late.”

“But picking Adele up won’t?”

“Her apartment is closer to the office.”
