Husband Changes the Locks and Kicks Wife Out, Suspecting Infidelity – She Clears Her Name
Two weeks into her marriage, Sarah’s life with Jake takes a sudden turn when he accuses her of cheating after “smelling cologne” in their bedroom. Jake’s mother had been in a car accident, and he went to stay with her for the surgery. When Jake returned home, he insisted there was a man in their apartment due to the scent. Despite Sarah’s explanations, he changed the locks and stopped answering her calls.
After reaching out to Jake’s brother, Nick, Sarah learns Jake believes she cheated. Jake’s texts accuse her of bringing another man into their bed and even mention an annulment. However, Sarah realizes the “cologne” smell was from lemon-cedarwood wipes she used to cover up the smell of fish. She texts Jake, but when he doesn’t respond, she waits until he finally shows up at her mom’s house, apologizing.
Despite his apology, Sarah struggles with how quickly Jake turned on her, changing the locks and believing the worst without communication. After a week of his texts, she decides to leave, realizing that love doesn’t involve such quick betrayals.
