"You knew? You knew about this and let her carry on? You knew and didn't even tell him?" Joan gasped. 
"Yep. And the only reason I know is because..." He hesitated and looked at Alice who was shaking her head. He smiled and squeezed her gently as the room remained silent. "The only reason I know is because I am the other man." A loud gasp was heard in the room.
