2) H has not fired OW/Secretary which tells me that: a) He values his business over his marriage/family.
This doesn't sound right to me -- I'm not sure how OW could be considered important to his business.
No, I'd say this would indicate he does not value either his business or his marriage/family. By carrying on this way, he is risking both, is he not?
By the way I do agree with your way of thinking, but he is not thinking clearly. He obviously thinks that by keeping her around the business will thrive. What he doesn't understand is:
1. Since I am 49% owner of the business, I will go after that. I have made myself clear on this. He keeps trying to scare me saying that I will also inherit half of the bills if I get half of the business. I don't see it that way. The business is self-sustaining. If anyone knows anything about this I would welcome your knowledge. My understanding is that a valuation will be made of the business with this including the debt. Whatever is left over is the value of the business. So this is why I say I would not pay the bills if he buys me out.
2. Let's say that the secretary gets mad at him, she knows way too much about the business. What he has left she could very well screw up.
He is playing with fire any way you look at it.
You know what they say about a scorned woman...In his case he risks two scorned women.
