Quoted from Yuvraj Attention: Libby raised a fair point. Supporting characters can know the secret. But only after character B has figured it out.

So, we don't get to know that a supporting character is in the know?

Because you say "supporting characters can know"
"but only after B figures it out" - meaning the supporting character will learn about it after B learns it. Or meaning we will know that the supporting is in the know after we see B figured it out?

Supporting characters are UNAWARE of the secret.

The only way is if character B wishes to let them on the secret too, after figuring it out first. Until then, they are don't know anything.  

Yuvraj —

You mentioned the reveal has deadly consequences. Are you saying someone HAS to die or not?

Quoted from SAC Yuvraj — You mentioned the reveal has deadly consequences. Are you saying someone HAS to die or not?

Not necessarily to kill someone.

Show it in your own way.

I asked for clarification on this point too, so I think it's important (for when people start reviewing later) that the deadly element be made crystal clear:

Deadly: causing or able to cause death.
If a character gets bitten by a venomous spider that's a potentially deadly situation but they might survive.

In Fatal Attraction the movie, the secret affair once confessed leads to an ultimate and deadly showdown and the actual death of a main character.

Yuvraj, you're leaving it to the writer's discretion as to whether a character dies or not, right?  
But a character (at least) must be put in a dire and dangerous situation that (a) could lead to death, but they might survive, or: (b) they do actually die, correct?

Just so everyone's on the same page.

Exactly. Like, if character A cuts a poisonous fart, and… umm… er. Sigh.

Back to the drawing board.

Quoted from SAC Exactly. Like, if character A cuts a poisonous fart, and… umm… er. Sigh. Back to the drawing board.

Yep, deadly situation that. Especially if with a significant other.  

If you need to show a character's death then show it. If you don't want to then don't do it.

Consequences can be physical, emotional, or psychological. Or all of these.

If you have a new of showing it, go for it.

Interpret it in your own way.

A couple of dumb questions:

If you have a mac, then press: 'option' and then 'G'.

If you have Microsoft, then press: 'Alt' and then '0169'.

Both of these will yield the copyright symbol.

So that’s how you do it!!
