Every time my husband, William, Reed sneaked off for a rendezvous with his long-cherished love, Melissa Carter, he had this way of trying to appease me—by sending me a hefty sum of money. As of now, the count stood at 97 times, with each transfer amounting to 143 thousand dollars. For the majority of those transfers, I'd play the part of the heartbroken wife. But as the 97th transfer landed in my account, I simply accepted it without a flicker of emotion on my face. With each transfer came a demand. And today was no different. "Melissa's crazy about Bouillabaisse. Whip it up and bring it to my office," William said. So, I got to work, carefully preparing the Bouillabaisse. With the dish in hand, I made my way to William's office. But once I was there, Melissa, without a shred of courtesy, took the Bouillabaisse and fed it right to the dog.
