Always Second to His Past

Summary

After the New Year, some of my husband's former students are back to visit him. So, my husband, Isaac Cooper, treats them to dinner.

They greet us warmly, but when they first see me, there is a hint of surprise in their eyes.

In the private room, Isaac takes my hand.

Everyone starts teasing us. "Mr. and Mrs. Cooper are so loving. I'm so jealous!"

I lower my head shyly and excuse myself to the restroom, only to overhear two of his students chatting.

"I was startled just now. I thought Mr. Cooper's wife would be Lilith Walker."
