"A mistress?"

Before Mikey's incident, he had a decent gig, nothing too fancy but respectable enough. How could he even think of having a mistress? If he wasn't greedy, how could he afford one? "He faked his death to live it up with his mistress?"

Dillon nodded. "Pretty much. When we found him, he was celebrating his wife's birthday, looking all happy and content."

Casper's eyes narrowed. He stood up. "Alright, let's go meet my dear father-in-law."

"Casper, why drag me here? I'm your father-in-law," Mikey snapped, looking annoyed. "Couldn't we have talked in Crescent Creek? Do you have any idea how worried my family is?" "Mikey, I thought you were dead?" Casper raised an eyebrow, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "How... did you come back to life? And who exactly is your family?"
