ADN756 — “Lend Me Your Wife for a Month”—My Boss Takes Her When I Have No Way to Refuse

My subordinate has a beautiful wife, and seeing her at their wedding filled me with jealousy. I kept wondering how I could sleep with her without breaking the law. Then he made a serious numerical error on a purchase order—one that would certainly get him fired if management found out. So I offered to cover for him on one condition: he would lend me his wife for a month. If he lost his job, even his beautiful wife might leave him. He had no power to refuse.
