Things can become clear in a second. When I found Tanner in his office with that woman, so many things became obvious. Tanner's always held himself back from me, but now, secrets and lies come tumbling out into the light. He's never loved me and he never will. I'm no longer willing to be a placeholder in his life, and I have to end our marriage.
Tanner
I'd been married for four years to someone I didn't believe I loved because I thought I still loved another woman. A woman I had to give up when I chose to marry my wife after I got her pregnant.
Now, the other woman's back, she's divorced and is telling me it's our time to be together.
Just as soon as I divorce my wife, who's pregnant with our second child.
The allure of the past was impossible to resist, so I gave in, met her at my office and my wife found us just...after.
So many things became clear to me even before I looked into my wife's devastated eyes.
What had I done?
I knew what I'd done, and now I had to prove to my wife that she's the one I want.
