Married Couple Arrives at the Lawyer’s Office to Get Divorced but Gets Stuck in the Elevator — Story of the Day

“Just so you know, the lawyer agreed that most of the property will go to me,” Kate said.

“Whatever you wish,” John replied, staring at the elevator doors.

“You don’t even care about the money. How could I have believed that you cared about me and our marriage?” Kate said, her voice trembling slightly.

“I’ve never cared about the money, and I always cared about you,” John replied, looking at her with sad eyes.

“Right,” Kate muttered.

At that moment, the elevator shook and stopped, the light went out. Kate gasped, panic evident in her voice. “What’s happening?”

“I don’t know. I hope everything starts working again, and we can get out,” John said, turning on his phone flashlight.

“Can’t wait to get divorced?” Kate taunted, bitterness creeping into her voice.

“Do you need reminding that you filed for divorce?” John asked.

“And what? Was I supposed to continue living with a husband who cheated on me?” Kate retorted, her voice sharp.

“You could at least have believed the man you lived with for seven years,” John said quietly.

“Sure,” Kate said, turning on her phone flashlight and approaching the panel with buttons. She pressed the emergency call button, and after a few seconds, she heard the dispatcher’s voice.

“What happened? Why are you in the elevator?” the dispatcher asked through the microphone.
