I stared at Brittany , my head throbbing .
Are you deaf ? I said my husband is dead ! He cant get you pregnant ! If someone told you hes my husband , youve been scammed .
Go to the police , dont come cry to me ! < Liar ! Brittany was clearly losing it .
She whipped out her phone and shoved a picture in my face .
Look at this ! Its the CEOs office at ( Insert Company Name Here ) ! Who else can get in there except your husband ? Who else runs that company ? Jessica , if you say that again , Im calling Tom right now and telling him to divorce you! I glanced at the photo .
Okay , it was the CEOs office at ( Insert Company Name Here ) But who else had access ? The cleaning crew ? My assistant ? I was getting a headache .
I waved my hand dismissively .
Fine , call him .
Have him divorce me right now .
Id love to see you pull that off .
Brittany , huffing and puffing , punched a number into her phone .
She made a few calls , but nobody answered .
Her face flushed red with embarrassment .
Hes probably in a meeting .
Hell call me back later , and then Ill tell him everything you said ! I took a deep breath and looked Brittany in the eye .
As your teacher , I feel obligated to say this one last time : my husband is dead .
If someone told you hes my husband , youve been conned .
Also , I dont know where you got that picture of the ( Insert Company Name Here ) office , but ( Insert Company Name Here ) has been thriving under my direction for years … Pfft ! Oh my God , Jessica , you are delusional ! Youre not trying to say that ( Insert Company く Name Here ) is successful because of you , are you ? Before I could finish , Brittany burst out laughing , clutching Ashley for support .
I shrugged .
So ? What was so funny ? I was running ( Insert Company Name Here ) ! When Tom got sick , he didnt want to burden me with a sick husband so he did not want to marry me .
But he also wanted to make sure ( Insert Company Name Here ) was in good hands , so he secretly got married with me .
That way , I would inherit everything .

After he died , I spiraled into a depression .
My therapist suggested I get out of my old life , so I took a job teaching at the local community college .
Jessica , thats the most ridiculous thing Ive ever heard ! Youre just a broke college teacher ! Do you even know what it takes to run a big company ? Pathetic ! So true ! Jessica acts like she knows something about CEOs .
Brittany and Ashley dissolved into another fit of giggles .
Duittony then stormed over and snatched my Г Okay , youre embarrassing yourself .
Since you wont drive me , your car is mine now ! And dont forget that Hermes bag you took to work yesterday .
Bring it to me tomorrow , I really love it ! They turned and strutted toward my car , all swagger and entitlement .
I just smiled and pulled out my phone .
No need to argue .
I dialed 9-1-1 and reported my car stolen .
I decided to stay in the faculty housing that night .
I needed to figure out who was claiming to be < my husband and knocking up my students .
Around 11 PM , I got a call from the police .
They found my car .
And the thieves were at the station .
I arrived at the police station and could already hear Ashleys pathetic wailing .
Brittany , you said Tom was crazy about you ! So why hasnt he come to pick us up ? The cops said we stole Jessicas car .
If I get a record , my life is over ! I did this for you .
You owe me ! Brittany was pacing , looking frazzled .
Shut up , Ashley ! Toms probably busy .
He く wouldnt leave me here , especially with his baby growing in my stomach !
