When a woman came home from work, she was stunned to see the nanny stepping out of the shower. The nanny explained, “One of the kids spilled milk on me,” and since they were napping, she thought it was fine to clean up. The woman, however, was frustrated: “I still don’t think it’s appropriate for you to shower in my home.”

As tensions rose, the woman’s husband appeared—oddly, during work hours. He sided with the nanny, brushing off the concern. This only deepened the woman’s suspicions. Could there be something going on between her husband and the nanny?

To find out, she set up an old nanny cam. The next day, she caught her husband returning home during work hours again. Alarmed, she pretended to be sick and rushed back, only to find him calmly cooking. “You are early,” he said. Then came his unexpected confession.

“I have to tell you something,” he said, revealing he’d been laid off a week earlier but was too scared to admit it. He’d been staying home job hunting and helping with the kids. “Yesterday our daughter spilled milk on the nanny, so I told her to shower. I was there the whole time.”
