Things kinda snowballed from there really. Then next thing I know she's sharing my bed and six months later we were married.Sandra sold her flat and I...sold mine, then we bought ourselves a nice little semi-detached in Harrow, North West London. Not on the Hill where "Harrow School" is, but close enough to sound impressive. Look, like some of London's top bank robbers live there (when they are out of jail). Both Sandra and myself were earning good money, we figured we'd had the place paid off in. No matter the contract got signed with little effort on my part. Lunch with the client was, of course, part of the day. As had become the norm Jo sat to my right. I ordered for Jo then the conversation turned to the usual business banter. This particular day was really boring and my mind wandered to the return trip. Since this was one of our first trips together I really did not know what to expect or hope for. I felt Jo's hand on my thigh and tensed slightly, her smile warmed and relaxed me.. I agreed with Jake that we would eachput up half of the six million dollar cost of the estate. So I amplanning to take three million dollars as my share of the divorcesettlement. I would also like to take a few pieces of furniture and mycar of course and that's all. You keep the house and everything else." Fine," I replied. "Whatever." I hadn't really even thought about thisaspect of getting divorced, but it was pretty clear that Sarah wasn'tasking for much. The house we lived in was fully. Mandi unable to utter an intelligible response looked wide eyed and scared. Further discouraging events unfolded when Adam produced Mandi's own mobile phone asking "Is your company's number in here?"Mandi, unable to answer and bound in such a way that she could not struggle very well, felt the tears welling in her eyes as she realised that he latest chance of being listed as missing in London was quickly disappearing. A quick text message later and Adam left the room laughing like a hyena. In.
