The day after my divorce was finalized, I was stretched out on a beach in Balaris when my phone buzzed. A friend had sent me a live stream link, and I clicked it to see my ex-husband, Richard Chandler, marrying his mistress, Vivian Baker.

Richard made a show of pulling out his credit card. But his act fell apart the moment the server's voice rang out, clear across the ballroom. "I'm sorry, sir, but your card has been declined."
