John's Revenge

As I heard Nicholas scream the words “water! water!” I immediately cut the rope from my tub, following his commands, and expected to float until the water from the flood had subsided. As soon as I hit the ground in excruciating pain and found my wife with Nicholas, I knew both had betrayed me. And for this they both deserve to be burned as Nicholas was by an iron poker. As I saw Absolon still nearby with the iron poker he had just burned Nicholas with I quickly went to speak with him. I told him of my discovery and how much this angered me. We then created a plan for both Allison and Nicholas to get what they deserved.  

The plan would be that I would convince Allison to meet me at the blacksmith for a nice ring I had made for her. As she gets to the blacksmith Absolon sneaks up behind her and pokes her with the burning iron poker.  

Then both, Absolon and I would have the last laugh as for then Allison and Nicholas could feel the pain I feel in my heart knowing my wife has betrayed me for an astrology student, far less rich than I.
