A Lesson Before Dying

We learn in chapter 26 that Vivian's husaband is in Texas in a coversation between Vivian and Grant when Vivian's husband made contact about visiting rights of the children as a term of the divorce.

"I heard from him," she said. "He won't give me a divorce unless he can see his children every weekend."

My head started throbbing again. "When did you hear from him?"

"Yesterday, I was going to tell you today when I saw you"
"He's still in Texas?"
"Yes."
"And I suppose he had heard about us?"
"I suppose so."
