Her bowl of chili! Amy quickly got on her Bluetooth as she followed the couple who’d left the restaurant after having a quick bite to eat. “Save my chili for me, if you didn’t already,” Amy told Cedric, hoping she hadn’t missed him before he left the restaurant, or someone cleared the table.

“Already done. Do you want me to drop it off in your fridge? I can ask your manager to let me in, but you’ll need to tell her it’s okay. Or I can drop it off at David’s place.”

Amy smiled. “He might get hungry and eat it. No way.”

Cedric laughed. “You seem to know David as well as I do.”

“Good guess. I’ll call my manager. Thanks so much, Cedric.”

“What’s the case you’re working on?” he asked.

“Proof of cohabitation. An ex-wife was receiving alimony based on her inability to support herself, but if she was cohabitating with a new partner for six months or longer, the maintenance payments could end or be significantly reduced. That’s who was in the restaurant. The ex-wife and her new boyfriend. They are definitely living together and have been for all this time. It’s not a case of just an overnight stay. Her daughter, who was living with her daddy, told him about the boyfriend living with her mommy when she had to stay on her visitation weekends.”

“Kids tell on parents.”

“Absolutely. And she’s ten so she can give more details. His daughter told him about all the places they were seeing, and eating out, the gifts he was showering her mommy with. I’ve turned over a lot of the photos of their activities together to my client’s attorney so far. I’ve been monitoring them for six and a half months and this morning I took pictures of them coming out of the house together again. His vehicle is parked at her house every time he’s off work, and then I followed them to a car dealership where he bought her a new pickup truck. I know because I saw him paying for it, but her name was on the document, well, I envisioned it. They went to the restaurant where they often meet up to eat their lunch. When they left, I followed them out, both of them driving to the house, her in her bright red truck and him in his car. I sent the information to the attorney, and he said they got them.”

“Good job.”

“Thanks. I missed checking on the woman in that other case who might be cheating on her husband, but this was a winning move—catching the ex-wife with her boyfriend buying her a new pickup. At least that job is done now. I’ll call my apartment manager and tell her to let you in to drop off the chili. Thanks so much, Cedric. I’m so hungry.”

He chuckled. “You’re welcome. I’ll see you for dinner then.”

“Absolutely.” Amy was so relieved to finish one of her cases. Though there was always a chance where a custody battle over minor children and disputes over finances and property could end up in a physical fight or worse.
