I had no idea that a dinner request would turn my life upside down. However, that’s exactly what happened when my friend Nolan found out my wife Camille’s secret.
I fell in love with her when we met in college. We got married after a short romance, and even though her parents were French, our relationship seemed perfect.
But during a family dinner, Nolan’s French skills showed a shocking truth. Camille’s parents talked about her relationship with Benoit, which they set up so that their grandkids would have French roots.
Thanks to Nolan’s gentle hint, I found letters and pictures that proved my guilt hidden under our bed. My world fell apart.
When I talked to Camille, I asked for a divorce. Her excuses and denials made me more determined. The months that followed were rough, and Camille questioned everything.
I’ve started over today, and I’m thankful that Nolan was honest. I’m hurt, but I’m not being lied to. Camille’s fate is still unknown; it may have something to do with Benoit.
What would you have done differently?
