Tom’s carefully planned secret meeting was ruined when he saw his father-in-law’s car at the hotel. Paranoid that he’d been followed, he aborted his plans and – in a moment of rage – vandalized the car by removing both mirrors.
The next day, Tom couldn’t resist checking in. “Your car looked a bit different when I saw it yesterday,” he hinted, waiting for the explosion.
His father-in-law scowled. “Different indeed! Your wife borrowed it and somehow destroyed both mirrors. Women drivers, am I right?”
Tom’s smirk vanished. His brilliant scheme to punish his father-in-law had backfired spectacularly, making his innocent wife take the blame. Some plans are too clever by half – especially when they involve secret affairs and automotive vandalism.
