my name is Robbie and this is the story
0:02
of my brother Jake he was a good man a
0:05
strong man 35 years old a solid rock in
0:08
our family but even the strongest among
0:10
us have vulnerabilities for Jake it was
0:13
migraines debilitating agonizing
0:16
migraines that could steal days
0:18
sometimes weeks from his life he
0:20
cherished every single day without one
0:22
each dawn a quiet victory against the
0:25
shadow that had always threatened to
0:26
engulf him to describe the sheer
0:29
intensity of a severe migraine to
0:31
someone who has never experienced it is
0:33
like trying to explain color to the
0:35
blind it's not just a headache it's a
0:38
suffocating all-encompassing agony that
0:40
makes one yearn for an end to the pain a
0:43
peaceful departure from consciousness
0:45
itself
0:46
while such severe migraines were
0:48
infrequent for Jake he understood the
0:50
profound importance of listening to his
0:52
body's signals and taking the necessary
0:54
rest he knew the drill so when the
0:57
familiar signs reappeared a subtle
0:59
double vision a disorienting wave of
1:01
dizziness and that telltale insistent
1:03
throbbing behind his eyes Jake knew
1:05
exactly what it meant it was a Wednesday
1:07
morning crisp and deceptively calm the
1:10
kind of day that usually promised
1:12
productivity and purpose but for Jake it
1:15
promised only darkness
1:17
aware of the potential risks he opted
1:19
not to drive his secretary a diligent
1:22
woman named Sarah handled the
1:24
cancellation of his appointments for the
1:25
day a routine she had become familiar
1:28
with over the years jake arranged for a
1:31
taxi to take him home leaving the
1:33
possibility of returning to the office
1:34
tomorrow pending
1:36
given the week-long duration these
1:38
headaches often imposed Jake preferred
1:40
not to take any chances upon returning
1:42
home the ritual began two Dapo tablets
1:46
swallowed quickly a desperate plea for
1:48
relief
1:49
he grabbed an ice pack from the freezer
1:51
its cold embrace a temporary comfort and
1:54
headed directly to the living room it
1:57
was a spacious room adjacent to their
1:59
sprawling master bedroom and in a corner
2:02
stood a particular armchair
2:04
it was his chair reserved for such rare
2:07
incapacitating occasions
2:09
he applied the ice pack to his head its
2:12
numbing chill a small battle won against
2:14
the inferno raging within
2:17
he closed his eyes and attempted to
2:19
meditate to mindlessly drift away from
2:21
the pain to find a semblance of peace in
2:23
the dark despite the pain intensifying a
2:26
relentless drum beat in his skull he
2:28
persevered he clung to the hope that
2:31
this migraine wouldn't be as severe as
2:32
feared that he could resume normal
2:34
functioning within a couple of hours a
2:36
foolish hope in hindsight while in his
2:39
meditative state a strange noise reached
2:41
him from below pulling him from the edge
2:43
of oblivion he assumed it was Linda his
2:46
wife of 10 years home earlier than usual
2:49
he remained seated unprepared for
2:51
conversation hoping she would sense his
2:54
condition and grant him the space and
2:55
quiet he desperately needed linda
2:58
understanding his plight typically gave
3:00
him just that but unbeknownst to Linda
3:04
Jake's car wasn't in the driveway and he
3:06
had no reason to be home at that precise
3:07
moment as he usually arrived every night
3:09
at 6 despite blocking out the noise
3:12
focusing intently on controlling the
3:13
burgeoning pain Jake suddenly became
3:15
acutely aware that Linda wasn't alone
3:18
another voice a man's voice it
3:21
registered a low rumble then clearer his
3:23
eyes snapped open a sudden cold clarity
3:26
cutting through the haze of pain he
3:29
noticed Linda and the unidentified
3:30
person heading upstairs towards their
3:32
bedroom his bedroom
3:35
staying still and silent a sudden
3:37
chilling stillness in the air around him
3:39
he eavesdro dropped on their
3:40
conversation
3:42
linda was on her cell phone giggling her
3:45
voice light and carefree chatting with
3:46
Shel my wife Robbie's wife the situation
3:50
struck Jake as utterly strange surreal
3:54
he questioned whether he was dreaming if
3:56
the migraine had plunged him into a
3:57
nightmare until he realized the
3:59
terrifying truth of the situation
4:00
unfolding before him his return to
4:03
reality was immediate and brutal upon
4:06
hearing Linda speak again oh Shel I'm
4:09
currently with him thanks for arranging
4:10
this date i hope it goes as well as
4:12
yours did last week he'll call you
4:14
tomorrow to plan another date i'll
4:16
provide a full report later got to go
4:18
thanks again the agony in Jake's heart
4:21
escalated beyond the physical throbbing
4:22
of his migraine it was a visceral soul
4:25
crushing pain he was unsure of what to
4:27
do his mind reeling he realized they
4:30
were oblivious to his presence oblivious
4:32
to the reasons behind it situated in the
4:35
living room beside the bedroom the
4:37
corner chair he occupied remained out of
4:39
sight offering him a concealed front row
4:42
view of the unfolding drama as he sat
4:45
there his blood began to boil a white
4:47
hot rage that did nothing to alleviate
4:49
his headache nausea intensified a
4:52
sickening churn from both the migraine
4:54
and the distressing heartbreaking events
4:56
unfolding before him heartbroken tears
4:59
welled up in his eyes hot and bitter as
5:01
he acknowledged the inescapable crushing
5:03
truth the end of his marriage with the
5:05
woman he loved in complete silence he
5:08
listened as the man praised his wife's
5:10
allure then the sickening sound of their
5:13
pants hitting the floor jake found
5:15
himself spiraling into an inescapable
5:17
emotional abyss a dark void where his
5:20
love and trust had once resided
5:22
he heard the couple lie down on the bed
5:24
and then his wife Linda her voice thick
5:27
with betrayal complimented the man a
5:30
person she called Blake on their
5:31
friendship and handling something
5:33
substantial exerting a self-restraint he
5:35
hadn't known he possessed Jake waited
5:37
for the opportune moment to intervene it
5:40
arrived sooner than he expected after
5:42
granting them a brief agonizing moment
5:44
he concluded it was time to confront the
5:47
two lovers suppressing the overwhelming
5:49
waves of pain and anger he rose from the
5:51
chair he mustered every ounce of
5:54
strength he had left to face them in
5:56
their marital bed moving slowly quietly
6:00
though the sounds from the lovers
6:01
drowned any noise he might have made he
6:04
approached the bedroom door linda
6:06
engrossed in her betrayal didn't notice
6:08
Jake standing nearby until it was too
6:10
late panicking she attempted to separate
6:13
from Blake who persisted despite her
6:15
desperate protests the revelation came
6:17
too late jake's head and heartache
6:19
overwhelmed him a tidal wave of grief
6:22
and fury he reached for his nightstand
6:24
retrieving a loaded Glock G45 he aimed
6:28
at Blake's left temple blake collapsed
6:30
onto Linda who lay in shock her eyes
6:33
wide and tearfilled jake addressed Linda
6:35
his voice a strange hollow echo in the
6:37
room i loved you with all my heart and
6:40
you took away everything I cherished my
6:42
heart is broken
6:44
he fired the next bullet into her head
6:46
witnessing the departure of life from
6:48
her body the light extinguishing from
6:50
her eyes then Jake reached out to me his
6:53
brother Robbie
6:55
despite having just committed a double
6:57
homicide his voice remained strangely
6:59
calm almost detached i greeted him
7:02
casually oblivious asking "Hey bro how
7:05
are you?" Urgently Jake instructed me to
7:08
listen closely he disclosed discovering
7:11
Linda in bed with a guy named Blake whom
7:13
he suspected to be the new tennis
7:15
instructor
7:16
he had overheard Linda talking to Shel
7:18
and he believed Shelley might be
7:19
involved with Blake as well worried for
7:22
me he advised me to keep an eye on Shel
7:26
interrupting any attempts I made to
7:27
respond Jake insisted I listen further
7:30
he admitted to eliminating Linda and
7:32
Blake in his bed emphasizing the gravity
7:34
of his words wanting to spare me from
7:36
his anguish jake encouraged me to
7:38
investigate if Shel was cheating on me
7:40
overwhelmed by migraines and the
7:42
profound betrayal he couldn't endure it
7:44
any longer he expressed his love for me
7:47
apologized and bid farewell before the
7:50
phone went silent
7:52
before putting the next bullet in his
7:53
head Jake dialed the emergency hotline
7:55
to report the double homicide and his
7:57
self-destruction ensuring they had the
7:59
correct address they found Jake in his
8:01
chair still with a migraine holding a
8:03
weapon his head leaning against a nearby
8:05
wall arriving 20 minutes later I
8:08
encountered a bloody nightmarish scene
8:10
i'm Robbie and Jake was my older brother
8:13
this incident occurred a year ago
8:15
marking the worst day of my life and
8:17
causing significant irreparable changes
8:19
in my world losing my older brother to
8:22
his unfaithful wife was challenging for
8:23
everyone particularly impactful on me
8:27
jake had been my best friend my
8:29
confidant and I loved him deeply the
8:32
revelation of Linda's affair and the
8:33
subsequent homicides and
8:34
self-destruction turned her into a hated
8:36
figure in our close-knit community a
8:39
pariah in death still grappling with
8:41
anger and depression over my brother's
8:43
passing I kept Jake's revelations from
8:45
Shel instead I opted to closely monitor
8:48
my wife after Jake's self-destruction I
8:50
became consumed by paranoia i hired a
8:53
high-end security company to install
8:55
various monitoring devices and software
8:56
throughout our home it took 2 weeks for
8:59
everything to be ready two weeks of
9:01
agonizing anticipation
9:03
if Shelley was involved in Linda's
9:05
infidelity I aimed to uncover the full
9:07
extent of her own betrayal my pain
9:10
persisted a dull ache that never truly
9:13
subsided and I became obsessed with
9:15
understanding my wife's role in the
9:17
convoluted sickening web of deceit
9:20
intimacy between Shel and me became rare
9:22
and cold after Jake's self-destruction
9:24
and the horrifying revelation of Shel's
9:26
involvement in Linda's infidelity upon
9:29
confirming Shel's infidelity the anger
9:32
solidified festering into a burning
9:34
desire for revenge against her for
9:35
betraying me and in my mind contributing
9:38
to Jake's tragic end over the year the
9:41
security company provided me with an
9:43
extensive trove of video and audio
9:44
recordings of Shel and her lover
9:47
engaging in what they called loving acts
9:49
although hurtful the most agonizing
9:52
aspects were Shel's conversations with
9:54
her lover certain phrases replaying in
9:56
my head like a broken record her lover
9:58
questioned why she stayed with me
10:00
highlighting their shared belief that
10:01
our bed life was dull compared to theirs
10:03
he brazenly suggested she should leave
10:05
me and move in with him however Shelley
10:08
ever the manipulator explained that I
10:10
was grieving my brother's passing and
10:12
coping with depression not wanting to
10:14
add more pressure on me she reassured
10:16
her lover that she didn't need intimacy
10:18
with me as long as she had him despite
10:20
their physical connection Shelley
10:22
emphasized her love for me and her
10:24
commitment to our relationship she
10:27
clarified that their relationship was
10:28
purely about closeness a physical outlet
10:32
she expressed nostalgia for Blake and
10:34
disbelief at his demise
10:36
they discussed the absence of Blake and
10:38
expressed concern about my mental state
10:40
hoping I wasn't as unstable as my
10:42
brother shel's lover assured her he
10:44
wouldn't bring her to our house like
10:46
Blake did and insisted they were fine
10:48
vowing never to get caught he pledged
10:51
not to let a similar incident happen to
10:53
them after discovering Shel's infidelity
10:55
I devised a plan she had cheated on me
10:58
with the assistant tennis coach Jared
11:00
Roberts who was later promoted to head
11:02
coach after Blake's untimely passing
11:05
a few weeks later my anticipated
11:07
opportunity arrived
11:09
jared was invited to a banquet honoring
11:11
the country club's top tennis program i
11:14
called Shel informing her about the
11:16
banquet and she was thrilled at the idea
11:18
of staying at the Ritz Carlton and
11:19
spending the entire night with him
11:22
conveniently I mentioned my twoe trip
11:24
coinciding perfectly with the banquet
11:26
dates my intention was clear to ensure
11:29
Shelley had enough rope to hang herself
11:32
as expected the next day she called
11:34
Jared sharing the good news she
11:37
persuaded him to take an extended trip
11:39
to stay three nights at a hotel in
11:40
Orlando and promised to make his world
11:42
rock naturally he agreed over the next
11:46
week they talked about it on the phone
11:47
and in their messages it was Shel's idea
11:50
to turn the getaway into a fake
11:52
honeymoon telling Jared she would like
11:54
to be his new bride and wife for the 3
11:56
days to further her plan she even
11:58
suggested buying a new engagement ring
12:00
for the occasion and booking a honeymoon
12:02
hotel room to make it more realistic
12:05
they planned to present themselves as
12:06
newlyweds to attract attention and
12:08
experience the thrill she even told
12:11
Jared that she wished it was real and
12:13
that he really was her husband
12:16
reading all these texts infuriated me
12:18
fueling the embers of my revenge i was
12:21
going to enjoy watching her face the
12:23
demise of everything she loved shelley
12:25
spent all her time working out in the
12:26
gym sculpting her body but I was
12:29
unimpressed and wanted nothing to do
12:31
with my cheating soon to be ex-wife she
12:34
was going to spend 3 days with Jared as
12:36
his wife on a pretend honeymoon this
12:38
would be her first extended time alone
12:40
with another man since she got married
12:41
10 years ago
12:43
shelley and Jared thought it would be
12:45
romantic so she bought several
12:46
attractive outfits bikinis and lingerie
12:49
for their date and planned everything
12:51
out meticulously i was amazed and if I'm
12:54
honest a little jealous of the effort
12:55
she put into this guy the love I once
12:58
had for her was gone completely drained
13:01
this level of betrayal had sucked the
13:03
last drop of affection I had left it was
13:06
over and it was time for Shel to feel
13:08
the pain on the way to the hotel I
13:10
called Shel but only received her
13:12
voicemail i left her a message a
13:15
carefully crafted lie saying that I
13:17
loved her and would see her in 10 days
13:20
shelley called me back an hour later
13:22
seemingly wanting to make sure I didn't
13:24
suspect anything she told me that she
13:27
loved me and that the children were at
13:28
their friend's house shelley mentioned
13:31
she would order pizza when the kids got
13:32
home and they would watch movies all
13:34
night she expressed how much she missed
13:37
me said goodbye and told me that she
13:39
loved me more than anything in the world
13:41
eagerly awaiting my return the
13:44
realization hit me like a wave a cold
13:47
hard truth i couldn't believe she would
13:49
lie to me so easily so convincingly
13:52
arriving at the hotel I handed my car to
13:54
the valet my heart a hammer against my
13:56
ribs
13:58
inquiring at the reception I asked if Mr
14:00
and Mrs roberts had checked in earlier
14:02
my anger intensified when the
14:04
receptionist with a pleasant smile
14:06
confirmed that the newlyweds had indeed
14:08
checked into their honeymoon suite the
14:10
day before to gather more information I
14:13
contacted the hotel's restaurants and
14:15
confirmed their reservation for 6:0 p.m
14:18
that evening at the main restaurant
14:20
strategically choosing the best viewing
14:21
spot I carefully followed the couple
14:23
throughout dinner maintaining a discrete
14:25
distance without being noticed as they
14:28
left I positioned myself at the entrance
14:30
planning to make it appear as if I were
14:32
entering the restaurant at the exact
14:33
moment they were leaving observing the
14:36
newlyweds holding hands I timed
14:38
everything perfectly i deliberately
14:40
turned the corner calculating my steps
14:42
precisely to run into them at that
14:45
moment I collided with Shel's bow Jared
14:48
nearly knocking him over everyone turned
14:50
to look we both staggered slightly
14:53
regained composure and with a practiced
14:55
smile I took a step back feigning
14:57
apology oh I'm so sorry excuse me then I
15:01
spotted Shelley her mouth a gape
15:03
simulating shock and surprise she was
15:06
adorned in her alluring dress a vision
15:08
of seductive beauty for another man she
15:10
wished to flee to hide to disappear her
15:14
worst fear had materialized caught in
15:17
complete shock with wide open eyes she
15:19
was utterly exposed
15:21
i addressed her my voice controlled but
15:23
laced with a subtle hint of mock
15:25
surprise
15:26
"shel is that you what are you doing
15:29
here?" I said maintaining my practiced
15:32
expression jared her boyfriend couldn't
15:35
comprehend who I was or what was
15:36
unfolding for several agonizing minutes
15:39
i then stepped back gazing at my wife as
15:42
if her outfit astonished me i couldn't
15:44
fathom how she appeared she wore a very
15:46
short low-cut dress with no bra nylon
15:49
stockings captivating heels and
15:51
glamorous makeup and hair thoughts raced
15:54
through my mind a cruel twist of irony i
15:57
desired she could dress similarly for me
15:59
it seemed like a special ensemble
16:01
reserved only for him i had never seen
16:04
her exude such blatant sensuality for me
16:07
i was perplexed contemplating the
16:09
circumstances shelley acknowledged she
16:12
was caught and struggled to think of
16:13
something to say but she just stood
16:15
there with her mouth a gape attempting
16:16
to compose herself she finally managed
16:19
to mention that I should be in
16:20
Jacksonville explaining that plans had
16:23
changed due to her job bewildered by the
16:25
scene I questioned if she was
16:27
provocatively dressed with some guy i
16:29
suggested going out into the lobby to
16:31
talk my voice rising almost to a shout
16:33
as I grabbed her hand once in the lobby
16:35
I confronted her revisiting our earlier
16:38
discussion about staying home with the
16:39
children i inquired about her presence
16:41
at the hotel and the person she was on a
16:43
date with i repeated my disbelief
16:46
wondering if it wasn't what I thought
16:49
looking at her hand and then directly
16:51
into her tearfilled eyes I pointed out
16:53
the absence of her wedding rings and
16:55
questioned if she had cheated on me
16:58
observing the replaced gold ring on her
17:00
finger a stark contrast to the large
17:02
diamond one given by her lover for their
17:04
pretend honeymoon weekend she seemed
17:06
trapped yearning to escape in response
17:09
she claimed her love for me insisting it
17:11
meant nothing i pressed on questioning
17:13
the absence of her wedding ring and the
17:15
presence of a new gold ring accusing her
17:18
of leaving me for someone else i
17:21
asserted that it seemed like something
17:22
was indeed happening
17:24
throughout I heightened the pressure
17:26
savoring every moment of her confusion
17:28
in that tense moment I turned to the
17:30
tennis player my voice firm as I
17:32
demanded an explanation
17:34
why don't you tell me what's going on
17:35
Shelley shelley caught in the middle
17:38
looked at Jared with fear unsure of how
17:40
he would respond jared attempting to
17:43
ease the situation told me to relax
17:45
echoing Shel's assurance that nothing
17:47
inappropriate was happening he explained
17:49
there was an awards banquet at the hotel
17:51
and Shelley had kindly accompanied him
17:53
to support our country club according to
17:55
him it was just a favor and everything
17:58
was fine suppressing a laugh I tried to
18:01
comprehend the absurdity of the
18:02
situation i pressed further questioning
18:05
if Shelley was only being nice and
18:06
attending the ceremony as Jared's date
18:09
then I inquired about their lodging
18:11
making it clear that lying would not be
18:13
tolerated i intended to inspect both
18:15
rooms before leaving
18:17
silence fell as they both looked at the
18:18
floor avoiding eye contact shelley
18:21
breaking the silence pleaded with me not
18:23
to be upset expressing her love and
18:26
attempting to downplay the situation by
18:28
mentioning that only a few days would
18:29
have passed and no one would have known
18:31
about it the harsh reality struck as the
18:33
truth unfolded she spent a few days with
18:36
him sharing the same room engaging in
18:38
loving acts and conspicuously absent
18:41
were my wedding rings replaced by a new
18:43
gold band shock set in as I confronted
18:46
her with disbelief despite already
18:48
knowing the answer I didn't let up
18:50
figning astonishment "darling it's not
18:52
what you think," she tried to explain
18:54
seeking to justify her actions her voice
18:56
trembling my anger though simulated
18:59
surged as I demanded a straightforward
19:01
response "answer the question i'll go to
19:04
the front desk to get some answers so
19:06
you better start talking do you live in
19:08
the same room answer me." Tearfully she
19:11
admitted "Yes." The floodgates opened
19:14
and she sobbed unable to hide the truth
19:16
any longer are you having intimacy and
19:19
remember I'm not an idiot again through
19:22
tears Shelley confessed yes the pivotal
19:26
question lingered the final nail in the
19:28
coffin of our marriage are you
19:29
pretending to be his wife sob she
19:32
insisted it's not what you think baby i
19:35
pressed harder demanding a clear
19:36
response answer the damn question did
19:39
you check into this hotel as Mr and Mrs
19:41
roberts in embarrassment and with a
19:44
tearful voice she reluctantly admitted
19:46
yes i grasped the situation and made a
19:49
decision stating that I understood i
19:52
informed Shelley that I would leave her
19:54
and her new husband alone i mentioned
19:56
that I was returning home and we would
19:59
contact a lawyer in the morning i
20:01
conveyed that we were done emphasizing
20:03
that she had left our love our marriage
20:06
and our life together all to have fun
20:08
with that tennis player shelley pleaded
20:11
desperately expressing her love and
20:13
stating that she didn't want a divorce
20:15
she emphasized that I was her husband
20:17
and she couldn't lose me urging me to
20:20
understand i remained firm stating that
20:23
I didn't understand i offered one more
20:26
chance for her to explain the situation
20:27
so that I could understand i asked her
20:29
to tell me why I should put up with my
20:31
wife sleeping with another man and
20:32
pretending to be his wife
20:35
she begged once again asking me to
20:37
understand that it was only supposed to
20:38
last a few days and that she needed it
20:41
she insisted that it was just about
20:42
intimacy and that she didn't love him
20:44
emphasizing that she only loved me i
20:48
questioned whether I should be okay with
20:49
her sleeping with another man for a few
20:51
days to have some fun shelley now
20:54
hysterical sobbed between her hands
20:56
realizing the gravity of her actions and
20:58
lacking a good excuse
21:01
all she could do was beg for
21:02
understanding apologizing and expressing
21:04
her love she acknowledged that it
21:07
sounded bad but believed we could get
21:09
through it she pleaded for forgiveness
21:11
expressing her desire to be with me
21:13
silence ensued heavy and suffocating
21:16
the tennis guy Jared grew irritated and
21:19
impatient interjecting to tell me to
21:21
step back a little and pointing out how
21:23
upset Shelley was i turned to Jared with
21:26
a deaf stare my voice low and menacing
21:29
instructing him to shut up and get out
21:31
of my sight i told him to leave me and
21:33
my real wife alone emphasizing that he
21:35
had already ruined our marriage and that
21:37
should be enough for the day unfazed
21:40
Jared stood up placed his hand on Shel's
21:42
shoulder and stated that he would be in
21:44
their room asking her to come up when I
21:46
was done she pushed his hand away
21:49
furiously not wanting anything to do
21:51
with him
21:52
in that moment I couldn't help but laugh
21:55
i comprehended the situation and made a
21:57
decision suddenly she no longer desired
22:00
to be with her lover and he reveled in
22:03
everything unfolding
22:05
i continued to taunt Shelley as she sat
22:07
there sobbing urging her not to be rude
22:09
to her new husband i suggested that I
22:12
might be ruining their honeymoon and
22:13
emphasizing that we both knew she wanted
22:15
this and no longer wanted to be with me
22:18
i insinuated that she didn't love me
22:21
claiming that if she did she wouldn't
22:23
cheat on me and show me such disrespect
22:25
after Jared departed we were left alone
22:27
in the cold sterile lobby she pleaded
22:31
with me to stay gazing at me with
22:32
imploring tearfilled eyes for a few
22:35
minutes i questioned her about the
22:37
duration of her involvement with Jared
22:40
once again she lied insisting it was
22:42
their first encounter i marveled at how
22:45
effortlessly she could deceive me a
22:47
skill honed over years of betrayal i
22:50
probed further asking if she had ever
22:52
spoken ill of me or scolded me to Jared
22:54
during our time together or during their
22:56
intimate moments once again she lied
23:00
denying any such behavior she reassured
23:02
me expressing her profound love and
23:05
emphasizing my significance to her she
23:08
urged us to leave proposing an immediate
23:10
return home to be together to pretend
23:13
none of this had ever happened amidst a
23:14
whirlwind of emotions I took out my
23:16
phone with a heavy heart I muted the
23:19
audio i initiated a playlist featuring
23:22
snippets of our conversations from the
23:24
past 6 months recordings that were my
23:26
brutal undeniable evidence firstly I'm
23:29
aware of your 2-yearong infidelity
23:32
the sound was crisp and loud shattering
23:34
the fragile pretense she had maintained
23:37
the first audio assured someone not to
23:39
worry about me claiming my ignorance the
23:42
second audio expressed dissatisfaction
23:44
voicing dislike for our intimate moments
23:46
due to my perceived dullness the third
23:49
audio professed commitment choosing to
23:51
stay not for the physical aspect but out
23:53
of love subsequently the fourth audio
23:56
acknowledged me as a good provider and
23:58
father with no intention of letting me
24:00
go the fifth audio made a damning
24:03
comparison hinting at someone else being
24:05
better in bed the sixth audio conveyed
24:08
affection and love for another person's
24:10
ability to arouse her the seventh audio
24:13
declared allegiance stating that her
24:15
entirety belonged to someone else not me
24:19
over 50 audio files followed each one
24:21
mocking and humiliating me and our
24:23
marriage each word a dagger to my heart
24:26
i couldn't fathom the depth of her
24:28
contempt for me and her words
24:30
transcended playful banter they were
24:33
profoundly hurtful and disrespectful
24:36
unfortunately these words would continue
24:38
to haunt me indefinitely she wore an
24:40
expression of apathy then shock then
24:43
sadness and finally utter devastation a
24:46
marked departure from her usual demeanor
24:49
there was a certain grim satisfaction in
24:51
witnessing her grasp the reality that
24:53
she had irreversibly shattered the
24:55
marriage and that things would never be
24:57
the same for her in a resolute tone I
25:00
communicated to Shelley that our
25:01
relationship was terminated due to my
25:03
inability to endure her lies any longer
25:06
i disclosed my awareness of her
25:07
infidelity and extrammarital affairs
25:10
spanning at least 2 years adding a layer
25:12
of intrigue I informed her that Jake had
25:14
contacted me the night he shot his wife
25:16
and her ex-lover recounting overhearing
25:18
her conversation with Linda about her
25:20
fondness for Blake's friend i had been
25:23
cognizant of her deceit lies and
25:25
disrespect towards me my intention had
25:28
been to see how far she would go and she
25:30
hadn't slowed down hurtling towards her
25:32
own destruction i highlighted how her
25:35
actions and remarks unmistakably
25:36
portrayed merely as a good provider and
25:38
father to our children disclosing the
25:41
existence of audio recordings of all her
25:43
calls and messages I underscored that I
25:46
knew her true sentiments about me our
25:48
intimate life and her profound
25:49
discontent the ultimatum was
25:51
straightforward she must cease the
25:53
deception and lies or the truth would be
25:55
exposed to everyone after a significant
25:58
pause I conveyed that I would be
26:00
reasonable but she needed to sign the
26:02
divorce papers without contesting the
26:04
agreement
26:06
i cautioned that if she chose to resist
26:08
I wouldn't hesitate to reveal all the
26:10
videos and audios to everyone including
26:12
her parents i pointed out that our
26:15
children were old enough to decide who
26:17
they wanted to live with and after we
26:19
explained her infidelity lies and deceit
26:22
i was confident they would choose to
26:23
live with me i expressed to Shel that
26:26
the truly heartbreaking aspect of all
26:28
this was that I once loved her with all
26:30
my heart and envisioned a lifetime
26:32
together i shared that when Jake first
26:34
told me about her I refused to believe
26:36
it but the terrible truth unfolded and
26:39
my heart shattered into a million pieces
26:42
i made it clear that she would have to
26:44
live with the weight of guilt and the
26:46
loss of love forever stating firmly we
26:49
are never ever getting back together i
26:51
turned and left leaving Shel in tears a
26:54
broken figure crumpled on the hotel
26:55
lobby floor i rose drove home and
26:59
grappled with my brother's passing i
27:01
contemplated the bitter truth that
27:03
revenge didn't bring peace not to my
27:05
wife anyway 5 years later I encountered
27:08
a woman in a cafe we developed a close
27:11
friendship a cautious bond built on
27:13
mutual respect i refrained from
27:15
remarrying explaining that I could never
27:17
trust another woman the way I did before
27:20
we dated for several years and remained
27:22
friends a testament to the enduring
27:24
scars that betrayal leaves shelley
27:27
suffered a nervous breakdown and was
27:28
hospitalized for a year after the
27:30
divorce was finalized
27:32
she was never invited back to the city
27:34
where they learned of her involvement in
27:35
the loss of lives of Jake and Linda and
27:38
her betrayal of the family she lost
27:40
custody of her children and only saw
27:42
them every other weekend a cruel but
27:44
just consequence of her actions she
27:47
spent several years deeply depressed
27:49
because of what she had done as long as
27:52
she continued to take her medication she
27:54
was able to live off the divorce
27:55
agreement and her job as a secretary in
27:57
a real estate office in another city a
28:00
quiet solitary existence the children
28:02
grew up without any problems because I
28:04
kept them safe and protected the people
28:07
around us rallied around me and the
28:08
children creating a shield of support
28:11
that allowed us to lead a normal life a
28:13
life unburdened by her presence shelley
28:16
never recovered from the loss of her
28:17
love her children and the wonderful life
28:20
she once had every night she went to bed
28:23
thinking about how many lives she had
28:25
ruined and how her life had been ruined
28:27
by selfishness and narcissism
28:30
shelley became an active church attender
28:32
and eventually dedicated her life to the
28:33
church in hopes of finding forgiveness a
28:36
fragile hope in the face of such
28:37
profound actions oh yeah Mr tennis Pro
