Wife:
She probably feels lied to and cheated. She probably feels that she can't trust him anymore.

Husband:
He probably thought it would be better to keep it a secret and thought it would protect her from stress and worry.

Perspectives

Author:
He probably would not agree with this just because of how this book turned out.-->

I think that this is ridiculous. Why would you lie about a credit card bill? He probably thought he was helping her, which obviously didn't help her much. It's a sad world we live in.

My opinion:

He looked down at his shoes," Juli we didn't want to hurt your feelings."
"My feelings? Do you realize that Mrs. Stueby and Mrs. Helms pay me for my eggs?"
