After Chris’s death, Margaret learns that her husband was married to a woman named Erica for 17 years.
She decides to track down the woman and learn the whole truth, but what she discovers along the way astounds her.
Margret was heartbroken after Chris died. They had been through a lot together, including the agony of being childless, but despite this, the couple had been married happily for 35 years until Chris died unexpectedly at the age of 60 from a heart attack.
Chris used to work as a scientist at Florida International University, and Margaret used to be a teacher.
They both threw themselves into work as soon as they realized they’d only have each other for the rest of their lives, and they eventually got over the sadness of not having a baby.However, when
Chris died, life put them to the test once more. Margaret struggled to get back on her feet after losing him.
And for days, she just hugged his luggage and cried for hours, remembering all the times they’d shared. She hardly ever ate or slept and isolated herself from everyone.
Concerned, Mrs. Duncan, her neighbor and close friend, paid her a visit one day. “Don’t do this to yourself, Margaret,” she said. “I know it’s difficult, but think about yourself as well. You can’t afford to ignore your health in this manner!” “I don’t want to think about anything, Claire,” Margaret said.
