Nick just doesn't understand women. Anyone would have lashed out and consequences be damned.

What woman would put up with that? Why did she marry him in the first place? That was the best she could do? Seems pretty unlikely.

She married him for money, nothing more. He was a successful business owner. All she would have to do is work at the twin oaks and she would be set for life. He was much older then her so she would inherit everything when he died.

He volunteered his world class beauty of a wife to be a CNA. Nothing wrong with being a CNA but ain't no world class beauty gonna do it. NOPE.

God bless all the CNAs. You are way better than the TikTok nurses of today who do nothing and get boat loads of praise.

I have to say I didn't see that coming.

You want to be somebody? Well what I had planned for you is I am going to sell the place and you are going to be changing my sister's diapers in cold northern Canada.

It was so out of the blue and outrageous,I thought he was lying and trying to trap her into murdering him again.
