To our shock, the waitress revealed they had been frequenting the restaurant for weeks. My world crumbled, but my friend\u2019s reassuring grip reminded me we could handle this with finesse.<\/p>\n<p>She instructed the waitress to bring two glasses of champagne and present the bill to my husband\u2019s table. As we sipped our champagne, we watched my husband\u2019s bewildered expression upon receiving the bill.
