Emily fidgeted awkwardly and explained, “I’m sorry, but I can’t tell you who Fin’s wife is. He told me I’m not allowed to share that with anyone.”
Her words left room for speculation. If Mr. Dean doesn’t want anyone to know who his wife is, isn’t that kind of shady?
If Mr. Dean’s wife has to keep a secret as if she doesn’t even exist, what does that say about her? The students quickly picked up on this, and gossip started flying. It seems obvious–Mr. Dean isn’t ready to acknowledge his wife yet, so her identity has to stay under wraps.
With this juicy thought in mind, the students started whispering and laughing among themselves.
“Maybe Mr. Dean’s wife is super ugly. That’s why he’s keeping her a secret.”

“Is it just me, or is Elias both rich and ridiculously hot? You guys are thinking about surgery, but I’m over here thinking about asking him out.”
“You’re so obsessed!”
As the gossip continued, Samantha felt a sense of relief. At least Emily didn’t abuse Finley’s name. That’s something, at least.
