I Found Out That the Guy My Wife Is Cheating on Me with Is Covering Half of Our Bills — I Outplayed Them Both

Rich guy, soft around the edges, always looking at Claire like she hung the moon. Back then, I thought he was just being friendly. Now? Now I knew better. I laughed. It wasn’t a happy laugh. More like the kind of laugh you’d hear in a psych ward.That night, I couldn’t sleep. I kept thinking about Alex and Claire, about our sudden influx of cash, about the new car I got for my birthday. It all made sense now. The next morning, I waited until Claire left for “work” before I dug into her old phone. She’d always been careless with her passcode. 4673. Our anniversary. Ironic, right? What I found made my stomach churn.
