He hated cats, especially this one hiding among his books. Millicent adopted it because she felt sorry for it. She liked to rescue things and help people. She was so good, it nauseated him. Everyone said that he was lucky to have such a devoted wife but he didn’t think so. If it weren’t for his career, he would divorce her.
There was a brown envelope on his desk. He opened it and his face turned white. Inside, were racy photos of him and Yvonne, his Jamaican mistress. But how…? He read the note. “Cat’s out of the bag, Judge.”

Dear Adele,
It sounds like he’s about to get that divorce. Hope his wife takes him to the cleaners and adopts five more cats. 😉 Nicely done.
Shalom,

From District Judge to porn star, just like that. Or maybe he can find happiness in the pulpit? Promotion anyone? 🙂 Well done.

His Jamaican Mistress–does he have a woman on every island?
I liked the humour here, looks like he’ll need to find a new career and I suspect another mistress.

I just thought that I would mention that his mistress was Jamaican. She’s the only one. He will be too busy dealing with a blackmailer to think about getting a new mistress. And, you’re right. He will have to find a new career. Thanks, James. Glad you liked the humour 🙂

I hope his wife will be free of that situation. He certainly doesn’t deserve her.
