I discovered my husband had taken a hidden 15-day vacation with the woman he likes to call his “work wife.” When he finally returned, I asked him just one question that instantly erased his smug grin: “Do you know what illness she’s dealing with?” He bolted to the doctor in a panic — but by then, the truth was already waiting for him.
