Married Couple Arrives at the Lawyer’s Office to Get Divorced but Gets Stuck in the Elevator — Story of the Day
“We got stuck in the elevator,” John explained.
Mr. Rogerson nodded. “I see. Please, have a seat,” he said, gesturing to the chairs in front of his desk. Kate and John sat down. Mr. Rogerson handed each of them a copy of the divorce agreement. “Please review it. If you agree with everything, we can sign it, and you will be officially divorced.”

John started reading the agreement. After a few minutes, he said, “I’m fine with everything. I’m ready to sign.”
“Great,” Mr. Rogerson replied. “Kate?”
Kate hadn’t even read a paragraph of the agreement. The words blurred before her eyes as she thought about their conversation in the elevator. “Excuse me, I need some air,” Kate said abruptly, standing up and leaving the office.
Outside, Kate took out her phone and dialed Lucy’s number. After a few rings, Lucy’s voice answered, “Hello?”

“Why did you set up John’s betrayal?” Kate demanded, her voice shaking. She didn’t know if John was telling the truth, but she decided to bluff.
“Uh… I…” Lucy stammered.
“Lucy! Either you tell me now, or I’ll take you for a DNA test today to confirm you’re pregnant with John’s baby,” Kate shouted into the phone.
Lucy sighed, then her voice turned angry. “Because I wanted him back! Because you don’t deserve him!”

“How could you do this! We’re having a baby!” Kate yelled, her voice breaking.
