The Wife Strikes Back

My relationship with my wife is complicated.

I give her $8,000 a month for living expenses. The house and car are in our daughter's name. To outsiders, I'm the perfect husband.

But I have a secret.

I know she knows. She knows I know she knows. But we both... pretend not to know.

I thought we could go on like this forever, in our unspoken agreement.

But one day, she suddenly said to me:

"It's been hard these past few years. Let's get divorced."

"I've transferred this month's money to you," I said casually, lounging on the sofa and addressing Sophia's back.
