If you go digging for dirt, you’ll find it.
That’s what happened to a woman named Lisa who suspected that her husband was cheating after she found lingerie in his car . Determined to know the truth, she hired a private investigator to follow her man.
What she found was incredibly disturbing and 100 percent grounds for divorce.
Lisa, who’s using a pseudonym, shared her heartbreaking story with ‘Metro.’
Her suspicions all began after she found lingerie in his car. While she assumed it would be a birthday gift for her, all she got was a voucher instead.
This sent the alarm bells ringing.
After she asked him about the lingerie she found, she claimed that it belonged to a friend who had accidentally left it in his car after he gave her a lift. This was just the start of his lies.
Of course, Lisa was still suspicious.
This, coupled with the fact that he was suddenly working longer days, caused her to fear the worst.
“We had been together for years and things had got a little bit mundane,” the mom of two told Metro .
“We were just getting on with normal family life. We weren’t being intimate.”
“Things had changed and something wasn’t right,” she continued. “He never left his phone around. When he was looking at it, he’d tilt the screen away from me. He took calls in the garden.”
It was at that point that Lisa made the difficult decision to hire a private investigator.
“The idea scared me,” she admitted. “It felt a bit seedy. But I did my research and found one I liked.” This ended up being Reveal Private Investigators.
They perform covert surveillance, polygraph testing, matrimonial investigations, GPS vehicle tracking, and other operations.
Following Dave around for a number of nights was how they discovered that he was
having dinner with another woman and had taken her to an apartment for overnight stays.
They even got an image of the couple holding hands.
The devastating information had her head spinning. “They were smooching and cuddling,” Lisa explained. “As soon as I’d got that evidence, I just went into Plan B mode. I just compartmentalised it, to protect the kids.”
“I had to make a decision about whether I would stay or go,” she stated.
“I confronted him and he owned up. Although it was tearful and emotional, it was also strangely quite enjoyable. There was an element of me that quite liked that I was showing him up for being a liar.”
After further investigation by the private investigator, it was determined that Lisa’s husband secretly bought the apartment.
He put it in his brother’s name to avoid suspicion. This was vital information as the secret apartment became a marital asset in the divorce.
“The investigation helped me get what I wanted,” she declared.
“I think financially I wouldn’t have been able to step away from the marriage otherwise. I would have had to live a life of turning a blind eye, sleeping in separate bedrooms.”
While it all worked out for Lisa, hiring a private investigator isn’t always the way to go.
The Diligentia Group says that they’re not always dependable and that you could get hit with a harassment charge if it goes on for too long.
So, tread carefully if your sixth senses are buzzing!
