Chapter 10
I was wearing my new store bought grey suite when I arrived to work at the law firm on Monday morning. Jill and I had gone to the mall yesterday afternoon and bought several changes of clothes to hold us over until we go to our homes to remove our clothes and possessions.
After Jill and I returned from the mall and from having dinner in a nice restaurant, Jill dressed up in the new pink baby doll nightie she bought and then we had better sex than I did on my honeymoon with Lilly.
The very first thing I did on Monday morning was to see Jerry to file my immediate separation from Lilly and to put in the proper paperwork for the divorce. The next thing I did was ask the CEO for the afternoon off so I can remove my stuff from Lilly’s house.
It was a good thing I took care of the separation first thing. Just before lunch when I was going to take off for the afternoon, Lilly showed up to beg me to come back.
“I have already filed for separation. Anything you have to say, you can say to my attorney Jerry Altona two doors down,” I told Lilly.
“I have nothing else to say to you except better luck next time,” I told her sternly. “And I suggest that you never break anyone’s trust like you did mine,” I added with a touch of anger in my tone.
After I got Lilly to step out of my office, I pointed her towards Jerry’s office. “You need to get your copy of the separation and your copy of the divorce papers,” I told Lilly. “Your lawyer is going to need that,” I told her bluntly.
I hustled home and managed to throw all of my clothes into the back of my huge SUV before Lilly returned home. I was just coming out to put my laptop on the front passenger seat when Lilly pulled into the driveway next to me.
“Please don’t do this, Jack,” Lilly pleaded as soon as she stepped out of her car. “It’s already done,” I hissed. “This was always the way things were gunna end when you decided to fuck my brother,” I snarled.
“What did you think would happen when you decided to sleep with him?” I rasped. “Evidently, you didn’t think about anything other than spreading your legs,” I yelled.
“And what did I ever do to you to deserve this?” I growled. “What was so bad that you couldn’t talk to me and work things out?” I questioned. “Was I really so bad that you had to go cheat on me with my own brother?” I ranted.
Tears were flooding down both of Lilly’s cheeks but her mouth was frozen half open like she’d lost her voice. “Geezus, Lilly. You can’t even tell me why you did this,” I shouted. “Do you even fucking know?” I yelled.
Before Lilly could find her voice to answer me, I got in the SUV and pulled out of the driveway. When I glanced over at her, I could see her sobbing.
Part of me felt sympathy for her. But another part of me reminded me that she had been fucking Donny for over two months. The same two months she had been treating me like a leper.
It was half past 1pm when I finished unloading my car at the condo. Jill and I were hoping that Donny would be at work when we go to her house to fetch her clothes and possessions.
Unfortunately, Donny had taken the day off work in hopes he could talk to Jill. “You stole my wife,” Donny shouted at me as I climbed out of the SUV. Jill calmly walked over and handed Donny a copy of her separation paperwork. Jill had also hired Jerry to represent her.
“If you are gunna be an asshole about this, we will call the sheriff and have you removed,” I told my brother. “And if you want to get physical about this, I’d love to show you how good I got at Karate in twenty years,” I growled. “I’d love to pay you back for screwing my wife,” I rasped.
Donny was following Jill up and down the hallway while we took her clothes from the closet to my SUV. “Please, Jill…Can’t we talk this out,” Donny begged desperately.
“No Donny, we can’t,” Jill yelled. “You gave up that right when you started fucking other women two years ago,” she shouted.
“Lilly might be the one you got caught with, but I know you’ve been fucking around for at least two years,” Jill hissed. “That’s when you started treating me like I was just a bother to you,” she added.
“Come on, Jack…Let me work this out with my wife,” Donny pleaded as I was carrying out a suitcase full of the things in Jill’s dressers.
“You are not my brother! I disown you as of last Friday,” I hissed.
“As soon I as get situated in my new house, I am going to tell mom and dad what you did and then I’m going to tell them I will never come to their house if you are there,” I snarled.
“You are dead to me, you selfish prick,” I growled.
“You’re doing the same thing, Jack! You are sleeping with my wife,” Donny hissed. “First, you can only prove that we are living together but you can’t prove we sleep in the same room,” I told him the first legal point.
“Second, even if I was sleeping with your wife, she is legally separated from you,” I pointed out. “And lastly, we are not doing anything behind your back like you did while humping my wife the last two months,” I added.
“You can’t prove that,” Donny hissed. “Actually, I CAN prove that,” Jill announced.
“I happen to have the last two months bills for our credit card and there are nine charges at a motel over in Layton,” Jill informed Donny.
“I’m sure we will be able to subpoena the desk clerks to verify that it was you who made the charges and point out which woman was posing as your wife,” Jill taunted him.
Donny was on his cell phone calling around to find himself a lawyer when Jill and I put the last load of her things into my SUV. “Make sure to get a good one, bother…because we have the best,” I chuckled. “I have never seen Jerry lose a divorce case in ten years,” I laughed.
