MY WIFE AND MY MISTRESS

Living a Dangerous Double Life

By Shantall AddisonPublished about a year ago 3 min read

Kate had always thought that she had a perfect life with her husband, Rich. They had been married for five years and had a beautiful home in the suburbs. She thought they had a solid marriage until she discovered his dark secret double life.

It all started when Kate found a receipt for an expensive hotel room. She knew it wasn't for a business trip, and Rich had never mentioned anything about it. She asked him about it, but he brushed it off, saying it was for a surprise weekend getaway that he had planned for them.

Kate couldn't shake the feeling that something was off, so she started to keep tabs on Rich's movements. She would check his phone and emails, follow him after work, and even went through his pockets when he came home. Kate was obsessed with finding out the truth about her husband's secret life.

One day, Kate followed Rich to a small apartment complex on the out skirts of town. She watched as he entered one of the units and didn't come out for hours. Kate's heart sank as she realized that her worst fears were true. Rich had another life, and she was not a part of it.

Kate waited for Rich to come home that night and confronted him about his affair. He denied it, saying that she was crazy and that he had been working late at the office. Kate didn't believe him and demanded that he tell her the truth.

Rich eventually came clean, admitting that he had been seeing another woman for the past year. He told her that it was just a fling and that he loved her and wanted to make things right. Kate didn't know what to do. She was hurt and angry that her husband had betrayed her trust.

Kate wanted to see for herself who this other woman was, so she decided to visit her. She drove to the apartment complex and found the unit that Rich had visited. She knocked on the door, and a woman answered. Kate introduced herself and asked to speak to the woman alone.

The woman looked confused but agreed to speak with Kate. Kate asked her about her relationship with Rich and whether she knew that he was married. The woman admitted that she had been seeing Rich for the past year and that she had two children with him.

Kate was stunned. She couldn't believe that her husband had another family. She felt betrayed and hurt, but she knew that she had to confront Rich about it.

When Kate got home, she waited for Rich to come home and confronted him about his other family. Rich denied ever knowing the woman or having children with her. He said that Kate was crazy and that he loved her.

Kate was furious. She knew that Rich was lying, and she was not going to stand for it. She told him that she was going to leave him and that she wanted a divorce.

Two days later, Rich went missing. Kate knew that something was wrong, so she contacted the police. The investigation into his disappearance revealed that his last phone call was to his mistress, but her alibi was check and proven.

The woman that Kate had visited was also married, and she had told everyone that the children were her husband's. She refused to speak to the police about Rich's disappearance, fearing that it would reveal her own affair.

Kate was devastated by Rich's disappearance, but she knew that she had to move on with her life. She realized that she had become obsessed with finding out the truth about her husband's double life, and it had consumed her.

Kate learned that sometimes , the truth can be too much to handle, and it's better to let go and move on. Kate knew that she couldn't keep searching for him, to focus on her own and the kids happiness again.
