Lets enjoy the fiction. I can't understand why we are trying to dig the moral out of the story. I think someone(maybe BP, not sure) well said 'Sahitya Nango Huncha' so at least I dont care if John cheated or not as I am here to enjoy the story. Lets keep the subject of honesty, illicit relationships, affairs to be dealt by the Court of Justice or some other Bureau. No Offence.
