One Phone Call, and They All Regretted It

"I was the second-to-last person to find out my husband was sleeping with my best friend.

Our mutual friends were all betting on whether I'd leave him.

“Rachel won't divorce him. Luca makes too much money!”

“If you ask me, Rachel's just too spineless. Otherwise, why would Luca stray?”

“Hey, Luca, say something—is your wife threatening divorce?”

My dear best friend was sitting on Luca's lap, smiling as she kissed him.

“I don't think Rachel will divorce. She's a parasite. She wouldn't dare.”

Luca raised an eyebrow, stubbed out his cigar, and suddenly pulled her into a deep kiss.
