Second Phone

Hi. I need opinions and don't really have anyone I could ask in real life. My H cheated on me 5 years ago. We have since reconciled. At first, it was an emotional Rollercoaster but as the years pass it's starting to fade from something that I think about frequently. In that 5 years, my H has worked really hard. We have phone locators on our phones. He's been present every day, always answers his phone and just has been trying really hard. I drop in on him at work and its always been fine. Which leads me to my question. Over the last week or so, I've been getting little gut feelings. Nothing I can put my finger on but just a feeling of something is off. While I was thinking about it, I remembered that he had a second phone thru his cell provider. He owns a business and has an iPad etc linked to the account. He told me it was cheaper to have the phone with an active number. Except I never see this phone. It's not in the house. So I searched one of his vehicles and found it in the center counsel off, but with an 89% charge. I quickly checked text messages and didn't find anything alarming. When he saw me sitting in his truck he came over to talk to me and I just went nuts. I think the trauma of five years ago came crashing back. He grabbed the phone out of my hands and threw it in the woods. When I went to retrieve it he ran and grabbed it. Later, I signed into his cell provider account (he doesn't know i have access) and this phone hasn't been used for data or phone calls or texts in at least 5 months. I can see his primary cell and his phone call and texts are routine as well. My question is- why keep a phone in your truck and charged if you're not using it? Thank you!
