I decided to surprise my husband at work only to discover he was on vacation
|Having not much to do on a particular day, Julia decided to visit her husband at work and bring him his favorite dish, lasagna. Happy to prepare a surprise for him, she rushed to his office, but there, she was met by a co-worker who told her that Ban took two weeks off of work.
Julia was confused. How could he be on vacation when he was leaving the home in the morning and was getting back late with the excuse of having a lot on his plate regarding his job.
She asked yet again if they were certain her husband wasn’t there, and the answer was the same.
She returned home, wondering what could her husband be doing when he claimed he was at work.
When he got home that evening, she decided not to confront him but to follow him the following morning.
After she arranged with her mother to take the kids to school, Julia entered her car and drove after Ben. As he drove across town, he finally made a stop, and Julia’s heart sank when she saw he parked in front of her sister’s house. Could Ben be having an affair with her own sister?
Julia couldn’t believe her eyes. She knew Ben and her sister Kate were close, but she couldn’t understand why he would go to her place instead of work.
Before making any conclusions, she lurked around and saw Ben and Kate sitting at the table, with a bunch of papers right in front of them.
Not knowing what to do, she called the family lawyer, Carla, who had handled a few legal matters for them before because she trusted her judgement. After she explained everything to her, Carla said, “Julia, before you jump to conclusions, gather some concrete evidence. It’s important to be sure before taking any legal steps.”
Julia knew Carla was right so she returned to Kate’s home and took some photos of her and Ben. Judging from their faces, it was obvious the two were planning something. But were they up to?
Once back in the car, Julia called James, Kate’s husband. She was visibly distressed when she told him that she suspected Ben and Kate were having an affair. “James, it’s Julia. I need to talk to you about Ben and Kate,” she said.
There was a pause. “Julia, calm down. What’s going on?”
“I think they are having an affair,” Julia blurted out. “What should I do?”
“Julia, don’t be ridiculous, they not cheating on you....
