She Ate His Leftovers,So I Made Her Eat Everyone'sChapter 1

Three years of marriage, and because my wife had severe germaphobia, we'd always kept our meals strictly separate.

Until the day I walked in on her eating with her young assistant.

He'd left half a bowl of rice unfinished. She picked it up and ate every last grain.

I didn't make a scene. Instead, the next day, I organized a group dinner.

When the meal was winding down, I scraped everyone's leftovers into her bowl.

"Eat up. Wouldn't want to waste food, right?"

She didn't say a word. But her little assistant lost it first.

"Mr. Henson, you've been a stay-at-home husband for three years. You never even look at price tags when you shop. All of that comes from Director Prescott's pocket."

"And now you're humiliating her in front of everyone over something this petty? That's seriously out of line."

I wasn't angry. I simply said, "You're fired."

My wife, who had always been gentle and accommodating, slammed her palm on the table and turned on me for the first time in our marriage.

"Rolf Henson, you don't have the authority to fire my employees!"

I let out a quiet laugh. Once a woman was broken, there was no point keeping her around.
