The Point of No Return

Summary

Five years ago, I witnessed my wife, a university professor, having an affair with Henry Bale, her teaching assistant.

Mindy Holmes knelt begging me not to expose her, saying that it would destroy his reputation as a student.

I agreed on the condition that he would drop out of school, leave this city, and never return. She would have to sign an agreement to leave the marriage without a single cent if she were to be unfaithful to me again.

Everyone rebuked me for being vain and for treasuring money more than our relationship.
