Indifferent to My Mother-in-Law’s Car Accident

The day my husband was away on a business trip, I received a notification for a hotel charge.

As I watched the video on my phone of him kissing his secretary on their way to the room, I dialed his number.

“Honey, you need to come home right away. Mom was in a serious car accident,” I said.

Before I could finish, Xavier Smith cut me off. “It’s just a car accident. We’ll deal with it if she dies.”

He hung up without a hint of concern and went back to his cozy time with his secretary in their hotel room.
