The $8 Million House She Bought For Another Man

Julia Harding's old flame, Oliver Simmons, was back in the country—broke enough that even his family estate was going up for a foreclosure auction.

I asked her if she still loved him. She frowned and told me to stop being ridiculous, said she wasn't that sentimental.

I believed her.

Until her phone lit up in the middle of the night. A bank withdrawal—eight million dollars. I'd seen that figure before. It was the opening bid for Oliver Simmons's old family estate.

She hadn't cheated on me.

She'd just used our marital assets to buy back another man's home.
