Husband Uncovers Wife’s Affair, Moves Out, And Shares Video Proof With Their Children.

my daughter Emily who's just turned 18 and I stood by as my wife Tiffany and her boss Ryan 25 packed her suitcases into his car he'd come to pick her up on Sunday morning for a Monday meeting in Los Angeles they were catching a flight that evening needing to be in town for meetings before some big negotiations Tiffany still striking at 44 after 25 years of marriage stood tall at 5' 7 in with dark brown hair and deep blue eyes despite adding a few pound over the years she maintained that slim curvy figure that always caught people's attention we got married right after high school and I worked hard to support her through college taking online courses myself childbirth never really changed her looks and after she graduated law school we moved back to Alamance County to be near family by then we had two kids and Emily came along during Tiffany's first year as a lawyer I watched Ryan with a knot of emotions in my gut disliking that arrogant smirk of his and the way he cared himself so sure of his place I wanted to confront him but I held back knowing it wouldn't do any good they were both heading out for some civil case but thanks to a tip from a woman named Rachel I knew there was more going on I had already been tipped off about their alternative plans Tiffany and Ryan had turned down our offer to drive them to the airport preferring the comfort of his car it irritated me that I had no idea when they'd be back physically Ryan and I were pretty much the same close in age height and build but I was ready for a confrontation if it came to that Emily must have noticed my growing frustration and wisely stepped in stopping me from doing something I might regret we waved goodbye from the porch as Tiffany likely looked forward to whatever awaited her in Los Angeles Tiffany's promotion to associate partner at the firm two years ago had turned our lives upside down and not in a good way the power went straight to her head though she kept it well hidden from everyone but me it was Rachel Ryan's wife who had reached out to spilling the details about his string of affairs with women at work she said this was the last straw and that she and her father had set a trap after Ryan's car finally disappeared down the road Emily and I went back inside does Mom have any idea we know what's really going on Emily asked me that Ryan's just adding her to his list probably not I answered your mom's always been blind to the truth even with all that legal training she doesn't take rumors seriously and thinks she can keep it under control to her it's probably just an exciting break from the routine she'll get a rude awakening when she realizes she's just another fling for him Emily frowned so why didn't you stop her if you knew you know your mom I replied if I tried to warn her she'd just brush it off call me jealous it' turn into one big argument and nothing would change her mind does his wife know Emily asked yeah she knows and her dad too I said they're ready to catch him in the ACT it's not his first time and Rachel's had enough her kids are grown and she's done with the whole charade will you forgive Mom Emily asked looking worried not this time I said firmly I forgave her once but this is different it's time to move on divorce has been on the table since she left this morning I'll never forget the shock on my daughter's face like her siblings she had no idea about her mother's past learning about her infidelity must have hit her hard dad you've got to explain she urged I don't get it you're the youngest Emily so keep this between us I said before you were born your mom cheated she kept it hidden until she got pregnant if a test hadn't confirmed you were mine I would have left luckily the paternity test proved you were Emily looked stunned only three people in the had known the secret and we'd kept it buried for years who is he do we know him she asked it's been 18 years since I spoke to him I replied your Uncle Rick you and the other kids call him Uncle Rick Emily took a moment to process the Revelation she now understood why I always kept my distance from family events with Rick why her grandparents split Christmas between him and me it all made sense now you could text Rick about Tiffany's trip and stir things up if you want I joked lightly then I headed to the kitchen brewed some coffee and grabbed the local paper scanning for new listings Rentals houses with Emily heading to college soon Tiffany could stay here until she graduated but I needed to move before her return I knew judge Wallace would prioritize the kids needs in the divorce so I had to plan ahead Emily's phone buzzed and she spoke quietly for a bit Uncle Rick confessed to everything she told me later he feels for you and wants to talk after 18 years I figured maybe it was time to hear his side of the story Tiffany's actions had forced me to revisit the past and though I felt betrayed I'd stayed for the kids hoping to keep our home intact grabbing a bottle of bourbon I asked Emily to drive me to meet Rick we had our usual spot an old fishing hole on our father's land sitting by the fire passing the bottle between us Rick laid it all out his version was different from Tiffany's but I figured the truth was somewhere in between in the end I didn't care anymore hearing Rick take responsibility was enough I placed more of the blame on Tiffany Rick had always been more of a follower than a leader at some point Our Father spotted the fire and thinking we were trespassing teens approached us with his old rifle he ended up giving us a ride back to the farmhouse in Rick's truck mom whipped up some eggs and potatoes to help us sober up just like when we were kids by the time we finished eating mom had already called called Emily and Rick's wife Mary when they arrived we were in better shape Mary who married Rick after my parents divorce looked confused to see us together so you finally made peace Mary said after all these years we deserve to know what caused the split I opened my mouth to speak but Rick nudged me just like when we were kids it was a signal to keep quiet Rick had always been better at talking his way out of trouble but this time I was wrong Tiffany and I rick confessed had an affair while she was pregnant with Emily he admitted it was his fault he was immature and foolish at the time my younger brother always more levelheaded had caught us and ever since then he saw me as dead to him hearing the truth about our Fallout my dad exclaimed damn if I were Marcus I'd have gotten rid of you what made you spill the beans mom asked Tiffany flew to Los Angeles with her boss I explained they only booked one hotel room for the whole stay which raised some suspicions Rachel Ryan's wife has hired private investigators Emily knows what's going on and it's tough for her to watch her mother acting all excited about this trip I should have let you confront him dad my daughter said locking eyes with me there was a moment of silence before I continued since Tiffany's keeping the house while Emily is in college I need to find a new place before she comes back Dad I'm not staying with Mom Emily declared firmly wherever you go I go we're sticking together Emily had the same stubborn streak I had and she meant every word no matter what came next come upstairs with me Emily mom said and they disappeared for a while when they returned we had a new plan we'd stay with my parents for the time being and all we needed were our clothes on the drive home Emily gave me a hard time you've got to stop defending mom she said we're grown-ups now she knew what she was doing with Ryan in La thinking she wouldn't get caught that says a lot about how she sees us when we got back home that Monday night we slowly started moving our stuff out each of us taking what we cared most about my rocking chair her makeup table the TV Tiffany kept us updated throughout the week though the progress was slow then on Thursday Rachel called and suggested we meet up in a nearby restaurant Jack's Roadhouse around 8:00 p. m. I arrived in my work clothes minus the tie I recognized Rachel by the white scarf she had on and as I introduced myself I was struck by her beauty she was much younger than I expected maybe 10 years my junior with long blonde hair and soft blue eyes she dressed conservatively but still looked great turned out she was a kindergarten teacher which explained her simple outfit I on the other hand worked as an HR Manager at a nursing home so my attire was more formal Rachel revealed that Tiffany and Ryan would be in Los Angeles for for the weekend and about 70% of their work on the case was done theyd be served legal papers as soon as they got back she asked how I was holding up and I told her this time felt different we were discussing it openly unlike last time when it all happened behind closed doors I mentioned that my older brother Rick was part of the mess 18 years ago before Emily was even born we hadn't spoken since then until my daughter made us patch things up last Sunday that reunion had left me with the worst hangover I'd had in years Rachel chuckled as I added what made it worse was our dad finding us like a couple of teenagers and dragging us home Rachel found that amusing but commented on how nice it must have been to be with family again I told her Emily and I were staying with my parents for now and only brought along what was necessary I also mentioned that I planed to keep Tiffany's number active until Sunday after which I'd block her for good before parting ways Rachel and I went to a nearby bar and danced for a while despite everything I left feeling pretty good that is until I got home and Emily started teasing me Daddy's got a new girlfriend she joked clearly picking up on the chemistry between Rachel and me Sunday dinner was special my mom was thrilled to cook for us again and we all ate well leaving barely any leftovers but around 1:00 a.

m. a phone call jolted me awake it was Rachel confirming that Tiffany and Ryan had been caught Hotel detectives walked in on them and everything had been filmed on hidden cameras she sent me a temporary copy of the video I got up dressed and headed downstairs to make tea my mom joined me as I was finishing up is the water still hot she asked I poured her a cup and showed her the video on my phone I watched as her expression shifted the footage was crystal clear Tiffany and Ryan caught undressed under the sheets looking like deer and headlights their shocked reactions made it obvious that they hadn't been acting innocently mom quickly saved a copy of a video to her phone we're done with Tiffany mom said firmly I can't wait to see the look on her face when she gets served with the lawsuit Emily and I blocked her number tonight I said reminding her that we had already prepared for this that night mom took Tiffany's phone and I helped her block all communication sharing tea with my mom in the middle of the night brought back fond memories later I instructed the receptionist to block any calls from Tiffany not wanting to deal with her by 11 a. m.

the receptionist called me she's been trying to reach you every 20 minutes what should we do what's your mobile number I asked she gave it to me and I replied I'm sending you a video clip if she calls again ask for her cell number once you get it send her the video and tell her that both Emily and I received it last night that was the last I heard from Tiffany that day before leaving the receptionist confirmed I did what you asked she stopped calling after getting the video if you or Emily need anything just let me know I nodded in agreement thanks boss I muttered keeping my thoughts to myself while my mom prepared dinner and Emily helped out in the kitchen I briefed my daughter on a work incident when suddenly a text came through from an unfamiliar number claiming to be from my mom asking me to call her it didn't take long to realize it was probably Ryan's number I think your brothers might try to contact us around 8:00 tonight I remed worked your mom will likely reach out to them by now they've probably realized we're not at the house they'll be in for a surprise Emily chuckled I left a note for Mom saying she might want to make Ryan move out considering his wife kicked him out it's funny because I Know Tiffany will never admit the truth to our brothers hey Dad Emily suggested let's turn off our phones for a while that way they'll have to call Mom to figure out what's going on that's exactly what we did giving a a peaceful evening even if it wasn't so calm for others later we learned that my sons had visited the old house after noticing my favorite chair was gone they searched the entire place when they found Emily's note in the kitchen it became clear that we had moved out their calls went unanswered adding to their frustration Tiffany played dumb claiming she had no idea what the note meant or where we had gone eventually they turned to Rick who hinted that maybe I didn't want to be found given what their mother had done strangely they never thought to question how Rick knew as the news of our breakup spread faster than gossip I got a call at work from my eldest son Cole after my secretary connected us he didn't waste any time after the initial pleasantries so what's up Dad where are you and Emily living now not much I replied everything that was wrong is now right and vice versa letun not get into religion dad he sighed just give me the facts check your texts I said I sent you something that'll answer your questions forward it to Lloyd if you want to talk swing by Grandpa's after dinner with that I ended the call sent the video of Tiffany and Ryan's Affair and notified Emily within 10 minutes Cole responded with Wow I'll be at Grandpa's by 8 my parents excused themselves when Cole and Lloyd arrived leading us to talk through the situation my sons didn't see their mother's actions as severe here and advised me to just move on we all make mistakes dad remember how many times you forgave us growing up this didn't sit well with their sister you may be my brothers but you're both idiots Emily spat angrily this wasn't an accident mom and Ryan plan everything the hotel was booked as Mis and Mr Ryan wor a week before they left watching my son's faces as Emily laid out the events was something I'll never forget we watched mom leave the house that Sunday afternoon knowing she was going to cheat Emily continued dad offered to drive her to the airport but no she wanted to show off by leaving with him we were probably the butt of their jokes all the way to La she had no idea we knew what was going on Emily turned to me why didn't you stop her dad I explained she would have lied denied it all your mom's actions showed she was already leaving the marriage this wasn't an accident it was premeditated dad and I knew two weeks before she left Emily emphasized Ryan's wife Rachel warned us that's why we had video footage ready within an hour of serving them the lawsuits boys you need to understand Mom didn't just betray Dad she betrayed all of us I looked at my children I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow to get tested for STDs I admitted their stun faces said at all I can't be sure she didn't have other lovers on the side this may be the first time she's been caught but her frequent business trips raise suspicions dad you can't be serious Lloyd protested there's no way mom had other lovers given what we've learned I countered can we trust her to tell the truth I left them to process the information excusing myself to grab a coffee my parents who had been listening from the sidelines agreed with my Approach you're handling this wisely Marcus my father remarked given her job and all those trips it's plausible she had other partners mediations business trips they could have provided plenty of opportunities I added even if she had separate phones those calls might have gone unnoticed a call interrupted our conversation and I stepped out onto The Veranda to answer hi Rachel what's going on Rachel told me about her recent conversation with Ryan it didn't go well she said he still doesn't understand why I'm divorcing him he thinks I should just forgive and forget but I made it clear I don't want him in our daughter's life anymore that's when it hit him how much damage his actions cost she also mentioned that Tiffany was having a hard time now that she was unemployed they'll be back Thursday to settle everything I've blocked Tiffany's number and the receptionist is turning down her calls I even sent her the video you gave me so she knows we're all aware Rachel added Ryan's stuff is in the garage until he picks it up and I've changed the locks we exchanged a few more words before saying good night I returned to the kitchen where my family was waiting for my next move I'm taking tomorrow off I announced I have a lawyer appointment at 9: I want those two served with lawsuits as soon as they touch down tears welled up in my son's eyes as they realized the gravity of the situation my father spoke up Ryan won't be the first but he will be the last he said firmly that's not true Lloyd protested mom Den Ed until we showed her the video You're clueless my mother interjected ever wonder why your father never spoke to Uncle Rick until now they patched things up last Sunday Emily added Rick admitted dad didn't deserve what happened back then but it happened tensions ran high as we discussed the family's history I put on the kettle giving my children time to process everything later after my sons left I sat down with my parents for a quiet heart-to- heart they'll be watching how you handle this my mom warned what you do now will guide them I understand Mom I replied I'll stay calm and let the lawyers take care of things I can't change the past but I can control how I respond moving forward at the lawyer office the next day I laid out the events leading us to this point her ears perked up when I mentioned Tiffany's employer did you know I once worked for that firm she asked they have a strict code of ethics we might consider suing the firm as well though we might not gain much besides covering legal fees still it would cause significant issues for them I agreed to move forward they'd be back from LA on the earliest Thursday flight out of St Louis after paying her fee she seemed eager to take the case I felt a bit like David facing Goliath the company Tiffany worked for was the biggest in the area with multiple divisions later at the doctor's office my family doctors seemed surprised by my request for STI tests the though unexpected he agreed it was a smart move meanwhile I learned that Cole had informed his mother about my tests he didn't hold back telling her that because of Rick and Ryan there was still uncertainty about how far her betrayals went that evening Rachel and I met for dinner at Red Lobster she greeted me with a warm smile and we chatted casually Rachel passed me an envelope as we sat down containing statements from five of Ryan's former subordinates they detailed how he coerced them into inappropriate situations this strengthens our case I remarked originally my lawyer thought just covering her fees would be enough but now it looks like we could expose a wider pattern of misconduct Rachel and I bonded over our shared experiences and as I returned home close to midnight I reflected on how much had changed since Tiffany left later that night I made tea for Emily and noticed Tears In Her Eyes I handed her a cup and said it's okay to let it out crying is part of healing she hugged me tightly releasing the emotions she'd held in by the time we finished our tea she had calmed down curious about my dinner with Rachel Emily asked a few questions I explained that we were just starting to get to know each other and that it felt like the beginning of a solid friendship the next day I dropped off the statements with my lawyer who proposed turning the case into a class action lawsuit I agreed hoping it would bring more accountability later I heard that Tiffany and Ryan's return wasn't smooth despite the settlement their actions had made headlines overshadowing any sense of Victory on my way home I withdrew some cash and surprised my mom with $1,000 she gave me a look only a mother could give it's to help with the extra expenses while we're staying here I explained it would have cost me way more anywhere else this is a one-time thing agreed she said sternly I nodded grateful for her support Tiffany returned to an empty house feeling like an outcast after enduring a day full of hostility both she and Ryan were unwelcome her husband Marcus and his attorney were suing the entire firm and Tiffany couldn't wrap her mind around how Marcus had found a former employee to represent him someone who would never have made partner otherwise it wasn't just about the lawsuit but the fact that Marcus had hired someone familiar with all the firm's legal tricks putting them at a disadvantage from the start after mixing herself a right cocktail Tiffany sat down and started reading through the divorce petition the the reality hit her hard Marcus and Emily had known about her and Ryan's plans when they left for Los Angeles now she had to face the end of her marriage feeling regretful she texted Marcus and Emily realizing the damage was beyond repair she hoped to buy some time thinking that if Marcus calmed down they might talk but Cole's words echoed in her mind her actions now seemed deceitful to everyone and it wasn't worth all the pain she was causing while sorting through the mail Tiffany found a letter from the county health department revealing she had contracted an STD overwhelmed she broke down in tears realizing that this nightmare was only getting worse her past business trip encounters would now make her family think even less of her meanwhile Ryan sat at a dimly lit bar on the edge of town drowning his Sorrows Rachel had filed for divorce and as he reflected on everything he didn't even notice the man who had quietly taken a seat beside him suddenly a commotion erupted and in the chaos Ryan was hit three times in the face his as salent words echoed Marcus's resentment making it clear why he had been attacked back at my father's Barn I was working on some chores one Saturday afternoon when my eldest son Cole showed up his stubbornness was evident after comforting his distra mother Tiffany he was insistent that I should take her back for the sake of keeping peace in the family despite the Havoc her actions had caused realizing there was no point in arguing I let him vent until he was done Cole imagine you were married I began and you found out your wife was being unfaithful would you still be giving the same advice his silence said everything I continued you're telling me to accept being with someone who betrayed me does that mean you think I'm insignificant someone to be walked over the shock on his face was undeniable seeing his distress I said firmly if you can't respect my decisions then don't come back I left him standing there knowing he needed time to process what I said he turned to his uncle un Rick for advice who admitted Cole your mother came after me not the other way around I fell for her and it led to 18 years of separation from my brother there are two sides to every story your dad is right your mother didn't get that STD from Ryan she brought it home showing she didn't value your father after everything he did for this family fix this before you lose your dad forever Monday morning at the firm where Tiffany and Ryan worked the atmosphere was triumphant my lawsuit had been dropped and they were back in good standing receiving praise for their successful case settlements despite his injuries from the bar fight Ryan pressed on privately sharing the ordeal with Tiffany later that day as I exited the nursing home where I worked I found Tiffany Waiting by my car she looked exhausted and defeated back off Tiffany snapped Ryan's got enough problems thanks to your little Revenge scheme I have no idea what you're talking about I replied playing cool he jumped she insisted the guy said he was your friend and that we keep doing it I couldn't help but laugh once I composed myself I said if I knew who did it I'd buy them a whiskey your lover got off easy if it were me he'd be dead just then I got an urgent text from Rachel asking me to come over right away I quickly told Tiffany get your lawyer and finalize the divorce without another word I drove off done with her Li and manipulations when I arrived at Rachel's place she looked visibly upset what's wrong I asked one of your dad's friends punched Ryan using your name she explained I couldn't hide my grin which brought some relief to Rachel's face aren't you mad she asked nope I replied I just wish I knew where he lives so I could send him a bottle of whiskey Rachel chuckled as I hugged her briefly before I could apologize she surprised me with a kiss on the cheek they're both inside waiting to talk to you she said leading me into the kitchen still holding my hand her two daughters Lucia and Lisa peaked out from their room and I gave them a playful wink which they returned Rachel's father a tall imposing man greeted me with a smile I extended my hand saying if I could I'd send you a big bottle of whiskey as a thank you he accepted a handshake adding think before you do anything foolish my dad's a viice saved me trouble when I was your age with the tension eased formal introductions followed and soon enough it was time for him to take his grandson home that left Rachel her daughters and me the girls excitedly introduced themselves telling me about their favorite restaurant and all you can eat pizza place called Papados kneeling down I asked how about I treat you and your mom to dinner there they eagerly agreed likely influenced by my casual attire just give me a second to call my mom and let her know I won't be home for dinner I said with a smile at the restaurant Rachel's colleagues waved at her while she grabbed more pizza meanwhile Lucia turned to me are you mom's boyfriend she asked I smiled and replied I'm just a guy her friend did you go on a date she pressed not yet but I need permission from someone special first I teased who Lisa asked curiously from you and your sister I said which made the laugh they giggled and said you can because Mom already says she likes you by the time Rachel returned with more food we were all in good spirits Lisa asked me if I could get her dessert and after we finished up at the restaurant I thanked them at their front door the girls hurried inside ready for bed feeling a bit awkward I prepared to say good night but Rachel called after me stopping me on the steps she leaned in and kissed me and I couldn't help but respond my daughter said you were going to ask me out Rachel revealed with a grin Lucia got it wrong I explained but I did think about it while you were busy with your colleague we sat on the porch like teenagers talking about our feelings and where things might go from here with September winding down we planned to take the girls to the Town Fair the following Saturday agreeing to figure out our next step afterward it was nearly 10:00 when I arrived back at my parents Farm walking in Emily quickly noticed my upbeat mood looks like dad's got a big grin she observed that meeting must have been important I caught my parents and Emily up on the days events my dad found it amusing that Tiffany had asked me to back off from Ryan and on Friday my lawyer launched a new lawsuit against the firm for senior partners and 16 women were jointly charged and the claim was hand delivered to the partner homes three of them were barred from returning by their spouses Linda O'Neal my attorney was relentless in her pursuit of information including finding out who Tiffany's divorce lawyer was mom even emailed Tiffany's relatives informing them about how Tiffany and Ryan were served with the lawsuit revealing this wasn't Tiffany's first affair during her business trips and mentioning my STD diagnosis as I was getting ready to pick up Rachel and the kids for the fair Emily remarked you're really into Rachel aren't you dad I admitted since the divorce started many of the friends your mom and I shared have faded away Rachel and I bonded over our shared experiences which made it easy to trust her I don't know where things are headed but I'm open to the possibilities if you need dating tips just ask Emily teased just promise to introduce us before it gets serious later at the fair I spent an hour on the ferris wheel with Rachel's daughters who enjoyed every second we ate plenty of food with Lisa perched on my shoulders most of the time afterward we bumped into Rick and his wife Mary who introduced their kids the children HIIT it off leaving us adults to chat by S 6: p. m. the girls were exhausted after bathing and tucking them into bed Rachel got a call from Ryan he was in the ER again after being punched Rachel assured him it wasn't me as I'd spent the day at the fair with her and the girls Ryan wasn't pleased I left Rachel's house around 9:00 p.
