"If that's what you want, Dad, I'll do it."
"Pay the income from the house into the new account and I can take it out in cash"
"Well, if you're careful, that should keep your whereabouts secure."
That night we all went out to a New Year party. Around midnight we had the obligatory countdown and the toast to the new year. When the cheering died down, I looked at my little party and filled their glasses before proposing another toast.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I give you New Beginnings"
We all raised our glasses in the toast. As we put them down, I walked around and knelt on one knee in front of Wendy.
"Wendy Turnbull, would you do me the honour of becoming my wife."
Wendy threw her arms around my neck. "Oh, Yes, Derek! Yes! Yes! Yes!"
I put the engagement ring on her finger. It was a perfect fit and so were we. As she sat looking at the chip of diamond, I stood up. I had the best feeling I'd had in more than seven years. It truly was a new beginning.
Les miserable. Prison, redemption, forgiveness, reconciliation, death, and a fresh start. A path of thorns. Happy new wife, happy life...
Terrible story and terrible woman. She could not have lived him and done what she did not only cheating, but destroying his career. Story doesn't have enough payback on Preston.
A woman who not only cheats but gives to another man what she won't give her husband...smh. That's so incredibly fucked up
To the most recent anon comment that the author failedto address the son's colluding to hide the wife's cheating. No, James said that his mother had told him not to say anything because she was in Brighton to plan a special surprise for Derek. Perhaps a bit more explanation detailing what the wife said might have been helpful, but the issue was addressed and given that Brighton is a resort area on the sea (English Channel), that was a believable reason. Also, the son seems like a thoroughly decent fellow, so what other holes did you fantasize were in the story? 5***** for a thorough burning of the bastard (and of the cheating wife as collateral damage) and for a well written story.
