Fifteen

Yvonne may have fallen asleep thinking about her husband, but she awoke with Thomas on her mind. The man was simply amazing. He was turning her world upside down and causing her to think of him more than she wanted to admit. But how could she help herself? Every time she turned around, Thomas was doing or saying something that caused her to feel privileged to know him. The man could go anywhere on earth and probably be welcomed with open arms, yet he’d chosen to stay with her. That counted for something, and she wanted to make sure Thomas knew that she recognized his worth.

When they returned to Detroit, Yvonne planned to sit him down and tell him everything she was feeling. However, she never got the chance. From the moment the plane touched down in Detroit and Yvonne stepped into the airport, she was mobbed by swarms of reporters, all wanting to know how long she had been carrying on her affair with the world-renowned motivational speaker Thomas Reed.

“What?” was all Yvonne could say to the allegation. She was blinded by camera lights as one microphone after another was shoved in her face. She fought her way to her car, then fought her way to her front door, slamming it shut once she was safely inside.

“What in the world is going on?” she wondered out loud. Then her phone rang.

Yvonne picked up the phone, and before she could even say hello, the female voice on the other end said, “Pastor Yvonne, can you tell me, did you know that Robert Carter was an alcoholic when he proposed to your daughter?”

“What?” Yvonne said, just as dumbfounded as she’d been while being attacked by a swarm of reporters.

“The video of the wedding is on YouTube, ma’am. It’s gone viral, and everybody is talking about it.”

Yvonne remained silent as this bit of information sank in.

“You didn’t know?” the woman asked, her voice almost compassionate.

“I’ve been out of the country. I just got back in town. I’m going to have to check out some things before I can make any type of statement,” Yvonne responded mechanically.

“That’s fine, Pastor Yvonne, but can you tell me how long your relationship with Thomas Reed has been going on? He is quite a notable figure, so when pictures of him in a lip-lock with you surfaced, of course the news media went wild. And I’d just like to know if I could get an exclusive interview.”

Yvonne hung up the phone and then sat down on the couch as she tried to make sense of the nightmare that was unfolding in front of her. Someone at the wedding must have filmed Robbie falling all over the place, throwing up, and then passing out. And then another person had taken pictures of her and Thomas as they kissed—or did the same person do both? Yvonne had a sinking feeling that she knew exactly who had done this, and his name was Edward Marvel Williams.

She went into her home office and turned on the computer.
